Investments/swing trading strategy for different assetsStop worrying about catching the lowest price, it's almost impossible!: with this trend-following strategy and protection from bearish phases, you will know how to enter the market properly to obtain benefits in the long term.
Backtesting context: 1899-11-01 to 2023-02-16 of SPX by Tvc. Commissions: 0.05% for each entry, 0.05% for each exit. Risk per trade: 2.5% of the total account
For this strategy, 5 indicators are used:
One Ema of 200 periods
Atr Stop loss indicator from Gatherio
Squeeze momentum indicator from LazyBear
Moving average convergence/divergence or Macd
Relative strength index or Rsi
Trade conditions:
There are three type of entries, one of them depends if we want to trade against a bearish trend or not.
---If we keep Against trend option deactivated, the rules for two type of entries are:---
First type of entry:
With the next rules, we will be able to entry in a pull back situation:
Squeeze momentum is under 0 line (red)
Close is above 200 Ema and close is higher than the past close
Histogram from macd is under 0 line and is higher than the past one
Once these rules are met, we enter into a buy position. Stop loss will be determined by atr stop loss (white point) and break even(blue point) by a risk/reward ratio of 1:1.
For closing this position: Squeeze momentum crosses over 0 and, until squeeze momentum crosses under 0, we close the position. Otherwise, we would have closed the position due to break even or stop loss.
Second type of entry:
With the next rules, we will not lose a possible bullish movement:
Close is above 200 Ema
Squeeze momentum crosses under 0 line
Once these rules are met, we enter into a buy position. Stop loss will be determined by atr stop loss (white point) and break even(blue point) by a risk/reward ratio of 1:1.
Like in the past type of entry, for closing this position: Squeeze momentum crosses over 0 and, until squeeze momentum crosses under 0, we close the position. Otherwise, we would have closed the position due to break even or stop loss.
---If we keep Against trend option activated, the rules are the same as the ones above, but with one more type of entry. This is more useful in weekly timeframes, but could also be used in daily time frame:---
Third type of entry:
Close is under 200 Ema
Squeeze momentum crosses under 0 line
Once these rules are met, we enter into a buy position. Stop loss will be determined by atr stop loss (white point) and break even(blue point) by a risk/reward ratio of 1:1.
Like in the past type of entries, for closing this position: Squeeze momentum crosses over 0 and, until squeeze momentum crosses under 0, we close the position. Otherwise, we would have closed the position due to break even or stop loss.
Risk management
For calculating the amount of the position you will use just a small percent of your initial capital for the strategy and you will use the atr stop loss for this.
Example: You have 1000 usd and you just want to risk 2,5% of your account, there is a buy signal at price of 4,000 usd. The stop loss price from atr stop loss is 3,900. You calculate the distance in percent between 4,000 and 3,900. In this case, that distance would be of 2.50%. Then, you calculate your position by this way: (initial or current capital * risk per trade of your account) / (stop loss distance).
Using these values on the formula: (1000*2,5%)/(2,5%) = 1000usd. It means, you have to use 1000 usd for risking 2.5% of your account.
We will use this risk management for applying compound interest.
In settings, with position amount calculator, you can enter the amount in usd of your account and the amount in percentage for risking per trade of the account. You will see this value in green color in the upper left corner that shows the amount in usd to use for risking the specific percentage of your account.
Script functions
Inside of settings, you will find some utilities for display atr stop loss, break evens, positions, signals, indicators, etc.
You will find the settings for risk management at the end of the script if you want to change something. But rebember, do not change values from indicators, the idea is to not over optimize the strategy.
If you want to change the initial capital for backtest the strategy, go to properties, and also enter the commisions of your exchange and slippage for more realistic results.
If you activate break even using rsi, when rsi crosses under overbought zone break even will be activated. This can work in some assets.
---Important: In risk managment you can find an option called "Use leverage ?", activate this if you want to backtest using leverage, which means that in case of not having enough money for risking the % determined by you of your account using your initial capital, you will use leverage for using the enough amount for risking that % of your acount in a buy position. Otherwise, the amount will be limited by your initial/current capital---
Some things to consider
USE UNDER YOUR OWN RISK. PAST RESULTS DO NOT REPRESENT THE FUTURE.
DEPENDING OF % ACCOUNT RISK PER TRADE, YOU COULD REQUIRE LEVERAGE FOR OPEN SOME POSITIONS, SO PLEASE, BE CAREFULL AND USE CORRECTLY THE RISK MANAGEMENT
Do not forget to change commissions and other parameters related with back testing results!

Kimchi Premium StrategyThis strategy is based on the Korea Premium, also known as the “Kimchi Premium,” which indicates how expensive or cheap the price of Bitcoin in Korean Won on a Bitcoin exchange in South Korea is relative to the price of Bitcoin being traded in USD or Tether. Inverse Kimchi Premium RSI was newly defined to create a strategy with Kimchi Premium. Assuming that the larger the kimchi premium, the greater the individual's purchasing power. In this case, if the Inverse Kimchi Premium RSI falls and closes the candle below the bear level, a short is triggered. Long is the opposite.
This strategy defaults to a combination of the traditional RSI and the Inverse Kimchi Premium RSI. If the user wishes to unlock the Inverse Kimchi Premium RSI combination and only use it as a traditional RSI strategy, the following settings can be used.

Token Metrics IndicatorThe Token Metrics Combined Indicator v2 is a comprehensive technical analysis tool designed to output Long/Short signals for crypto assets on TradingView. It combines multiple indicators, including Token Metrics Clouds, Token Metrics Trend Lines , Token Metrics Channels, and signals, to give a comprehensive outlook on the market trend and potential entry/exit points.
Users can backtest the signals to understand the strategy's historical performance, learn how to use it, identify its pros and cons, and determine the market conditions it best suits. It is important to note that the backtesting performance does not indicate future results.
The methods for calculating fixed stop-losses vary depending on the trading pattern. A fixed stop-loss is used for long-term trading, while a trading stop-loss is used for high-frequency trading. This provides flexible investment risk management, allowing you to assign different stop-loss percentages to different trading strategies.
The Length input allows users to control the indicator’s sensitivity, with a default value of 20 bars for long-term trading and 9 bars for high-frequency trading. The Adjustment Factor input has a default value of 0.1 and can be adjusted to adapt to changing levels of volatility . The Stop-loss input allows users to control their risk tolerance, with a default value of 8% for long-term trading and 2% for high-frequency trading.
Token Metrics Clouds incorporates a bullish / bearish trend indicator, which uses two adaptive moving averages that adapt to volatility , reducing false trend signals during range-bound environments and providing a more accurate representation of market trends.
The Token Metrics Trendline is a long-term indicator that uses an adaptive moving average to identify long-term trends. This can also be used for long-term resistance and support levels, providing a comprehensive overview of the current market situation for both long-term and high-frequency traders.
The Token Metrics Signals indicator provides long, short, and close signals, indicating when to enter and exit long or short positions based on the TM trend-following strategy.
The Token Metrics Channels indicator is a top/bottom indicator that adjusts to current levels of volatility . This uses adaptive Donchian channels to determine the previous short-term swing high and low, providing insight into where short-term resistance or support might be forming and where breakouts can occur. The look-back periods change according to the strategy time frame, offering a flexible and dynamic approach to market analysis.
Long-term trading is a trend-following strategy best suited for daily and weekly timeframes. This strategy works well in trending markets but may produce false signals in choppy or range-bound markets.
High-frequency trading is a mean-reverting strategy best suited for 15-minute, 30-minute, and 1-hour timeframes. This strategy performs well in choppy or range-bound markets but may not be effective in strong trending markets.
TUE Argentum Algo V1This algorithm is designed to look trend for opening conditions, apply various filters including volume and volatility, then determine stop outs, break evens, and take profits.
The algorithm uses proprietary math based on the concepts of volatility, standard deviations, average true ranges, and volume to help determine trend. You can filter based on cumulative volume delta, volatility, and moving average based trend. It includes settings for either trend following or contrarian trades, and the ability to go long, short, or both.
The take profit areas are based on proprietary math that help find peaks and valleys. You can adjust the size of the take profits as a percentage of the position, change to static take profits (i.e. take profit in 16 ticks), or use both. You can also disable them and use the natural closing conditions of the trades (detection of trend change in the opposite direction).
Our algo works in any market and will allow user to adjust input settings to be used on any ticker they'd like. It is built as a strategy so you can back test on any ticker to find the exact right settings to dial it in and then switch to live trading mode to see signals. Can be used for day trades or swing trades.
Automated Trading
This algo has been tested and certified to work for automated trading.
Works on Forex
It's confirmed to work on forex so you can trade that market.
Gets you into long successful trades, and gets out of poor ones quickly
It keeps you in the long trades taking small profits along the way, but cuts losers quickly in comparison. This style leads to a high profit factor.
It looks at many variables so you don't have to
- Uses trend analysis for opening/closing conditions.
- It measures the strength of trends to help determine if it should enter or not.
- It uses volume, if the user wants, to help filter entries. The volume calculation is based off of my proprietary cumulative volume delta indicator and helps find if the volume is moving long or short.
- It uses proprietary take profit math to help find peaks and valleys to peel off profits. It is based on the changes in momentum of the underlying.
- It allows for stop outs and break evens based on volatility so they'll always adjust with the movement of the underlying ticker (see the blue lines above and below the opening in the chart).
- It allows for offset break evens to keep a portion of the profit.
Strategy for the Algo
Included so you can understand how to trade with it.
ONE: After loading this strategy onto a ticker turn off volume if it's a ticker with no volume , set the dates at the bottom to when the stock is active (you want to start backtesting when a stock started trading like it trades currently).
TWO: From there adjust the short term trend settings to find the highest win rate and profit factor.
THREE: Then adjust the volume length to find the highest win rate and profit factor. It's important while doing these that you pay attention to a smooth upward equity curve.
FOUR: After this has been done now adjust the long and short risk multipliers. This determines your stop out.
FIVE: Then adjust breakeven multipliers - this is the level at which it changes to a breakeven stop out instead of the previous one. You can also set an offset to keep a small part of the profit.
SIX: Finally adjust the take profit sizes.
SEVEN: Once this is all done go back through the list and adjust up and down by one or two clicks and see if a better curve can be obtained. Very frequently long and short trades have different settings.
EIGHT: When you are finished save the settings in a custom indicator template and put it with it's own chart.
Additional
The settings shown on screen are not the default settings, but are settings chosen for this ticker and timeframe based on the process above. Nearly every ticker and timeframe will require adjustment from default, that's why the algorithm is built to be highly flexible. It can fit any ticker and timeframe, as well as market environment.
This particular setup has the algo running a scalping program on ES 3 min with a 16 tick static target. This algorithm can be set up as a scalper, or used to day trade more regularly. It can also swing trade.
As shown here the algo includes $1.25 of commissions and 1 tick of slippage on all orders (about our average for automated trading on ES).
TUE ADX/MACD Confluence Algorithm V1This algorithm is designed to look at the ADX/MACD confluence for opening conditions, apply various filters including volume and volatility, then determine stop outs, break evens, and take profits.
The ADX and MACD confluence can be a powerful predictor in stock movements. Both of these indicators find trend but do it in different ways. When they're combined they have a high success rate of finding openings. That's done by finding the bar in which both show the same direction - that bar is the beginning of the confluence. I have a free indicator called the TUE ADX/MACD Confluence that you can use to see this in action.
This script will help you find those confluences in an easy to understand manner. It will open a trade on a detected confluence, using the rest of the variables available in the algorithm as filters. You can filter based on cumulative volume delta, volatility, and trend. It includes settings for either trend following or contrarian trades, and the ability to go long, short, or both.
It includes Buy and Sell signals for detected confluences, and will show colored candles to help you determine when to exit a trade if you don't want to follow the included take profit areas. When the candles turn to white that means the detected confluence is no longer in play. The Buy and Sell signals will display on the first occurrence of each confluence.
The take profit areas are based on proprietary math that help find peaks and valleys. You can adjust the size of the take profits as a percentage of the position, change to static take profits (i.e. take profit in 16 ticks), or use both. You can also disable them and use the natural closing conditions (reversal of MACD/ADX confluence).
Our algo works in any market and will allow user to adjust input settings to be used on any ticker they'd like. It is built as a strategy so you can back test on any ticker to find the exact right settings to dial it in and then switch to live trading mode to see signals. Can be used for day trades or swing trades.

Strategy Myth-Busting #13 - MultiEMA+BXTrender - [SP/MYN]#13 on the Myth-Busting bench, we are automating the "I Found The Highest Win Rate 15 Minute Scalping Trading Strategy Ever" strategy from "TradeIQ" who claims to have backtested this manually and achieved 410% profit over 100 trades within 6 months on Natural Gas with 79 Wins / 21 Losses with an astounding 3.96% Max Drawdown.
It was quite challenging emulating the same subjective EMA pullback logic along with the dependent sequencing of events necessary to enter a trade and we might improve on this to make it better in the future. Super kudos to @spdoinkal who helped with this strategy. If you have ideas on how this could be improved on, would love to hear about them.
As is, we were unable to substantiate similar results to what was manually backtested by TradeIQ, we do however see potential here. Given some optimizations and improvements to the the entry logic accommodating for a wider more variable margin after pullbacks reestablish above/below the fast EMA we think the performance of this strategy could certainly be improved upon. So not sure if we have totally myth busted this completely at this point in time.
This strategy uses a combination of 2 open-source public indicators:
3 EMA's (Trading View Internal)
B-Xtrender by Puppytherapy
Three separate (21), (89) and (200) EMA's are used as a means to confirm and keep entry out of ranged markets. When the 3 EMA's are all clumped up together with no distance it's indicative of a flat or ranged market. This is then used in conjunction with B-XTrender as a means to detect the trend direction. B-XTrender which is a trend following indicator originally published in the IFTA Journal by Bharat Jhunjhunwala. It uses both a short and long term lengths along with a compound EMA used as a means to smooth and sample trend direction.
Trading Rules
15 min candles but other lower time-frames
Stop Loss on previous swing high/low
No Take Profit, Exit on new red/green circles from BX-Trender
Long
EMA Green (21) on top, White (89)in middle and red (200) on bottom and there is distance between EMA's need to be spaced, otherwise in a ranged market
Price action must pull back into 89 EMA (White line) either close or touching it.
Once pullback occurs wait for BX Trender to issue a new green circle and BX Trend line must be green and above 0
Price action must also pull up back above the (Green Line) EMA 21
Short
EMA Red (200) on top, White (89) in middle and Green (21) on bottom and there is distance between EMA's need to be spaced, otherwise in a ranged market
Price action must pull back into 89 EMA (White line) either close or touching it.
Once pullback occurs wait for BX Trender to issue a new red circle and BX Trend line must be red and below 0
Price action must also pull up back below the (green Line) EMA 21

Strategy Myth-Busting #12 - OSGFC+SuperTrend - [MYN]This is part of a new series we are calling "Strategy Myth-Busting" where we take open public manual trading strategies and automate them. The goal is to not only validate the authenticity of the claims but to provide an automated version for traders who wish to trade autonomously.
Our 12th one is an automated version of the "The Most Powerful Tradingview Buy Sell Signal Indicator " strategy from "Power of Trading" who doesn't make any official claims but watching how he trades with this, it on the surface looked promising. The strategy author uses this on the 15 min strategy on mostly FOREX. Unfortunately as indicated by the backtest results below, we were not able to substantiate any good positive trading metrics from this, be it Profit, Markdown, Num Of Trades etc. This does seem to do okay with some entries but perhaps adding another indicator to this to filter out more noise might make it better. At least how this strategy is presented now, this is not something I recommend anyone use.
This strategy uses a combination of 2 open-source public indicators:
SuperTrend by TradingView Internal
One-Sided Gaussian Filter w/ Channels By Loxx
The SuperTrend indicator and the One-Sided Gaussian Filter complement each other by providing a more complete and accurate picture of market trends. The SuperTrend indicator is used to identify trends. It does this by calculating a moving average of the underlying securities price and then comparing the current price to the moving average. When the current price is above the moving average, the trend is considered bullish, and when it is below, the trend is considered bearish.
The One-Sided Gaussian Filter is a mathematical tool that is used to smooth out fluctuations in financial data. It does this by removing random noise from the data, making it easier to identify patterns and trends.
When the SuperTrend indicator is used in conjunction with the One-Sided Gaussian Filter, the smoothed price data generated by the filter is used as the input for the SuperTrend calculation. This provides a more accurate representation of market trends and helps to eliminate false signals generated by short-term price movements. As a result, the SuperTrend indicator is able to more accurately identify the underlying trend in the market and provide traders with a cleaner and more reliable signal to act upon.
In summary, the SuperTrend indicator and the One-Sided Gaussian Filter complement each other by providing a more accurate and reliable representation of market trends, resulting in improved performance for traders.

smplondonclinic StrategyHello my friend! I'm uploading the code for your strategy. I have included a feature in the settings menu called "Entry Direction" that you can use to isolate only longs, only shorts or have both directions at the same time for the backtesting. I have set the strategy to only open 1 position at a time, it will not open a new position unless the previous position is closed. If you want to remove that just let me know. The green/red triangles that you will see plotting on the chart are the potential entry signals, you can turn them off from the style panel in the settings menu. In the inputs tab besides the strategy settings you also have all the relevant parameters for the three indicators used.
TrendShift Pro v1.1TrendShift uses a unique series of moving average calculations to signal shifts in trend direction that goes above and beyond what is possible with common moving average trading techniques like simple moving average crosses.
What makes TrendShift different :
Unique moving average calculations - The unique calculations allow signals of shifts in trend direction to occur quickly but also avoid the chop and frequent flipflops that are common with standard moving average trading technique.
Trading filtering - A clear method of trade confirmation and additional trade filtering using popular indicators like the Ichimoku Cloud and Parabolic SAR which work synergistically with the unique moving average calculations and add additional layers of caution and refinement to filter out unreliable signals.
Dynamic trailing stoploss – A dynamically adjusted fractal stop which provides a unique and effective method of managing risk while capturing the duration of a trending move.
Strict trading criteria – Unambiguous and clearly signaled entries along with a comprehensive risk management framework and robust back-testing tools which are design to reduce discretion and subjective input as much as possible.
Features :
Clearly signaled shifts in trend direction.
Built in optimization for different trading instruments.
Custom inputs for self-optimization.
Adjustable methods of confirming trend shift signals.
Trading filtering using popular trend indicators.
Key support and resistance level displays.
Customizable display options.
Risk management using customizable adjustable trailing stop loss and position size management tools.
Customizable backtesting tools.
Customizable alert messages.
Settings :
Entry Settings:
Entry Type : for entering trades via signal candle or signal candle confirmation.
Trade type : for long only, short only, or long and short trading.
Trend Optimization : contains optimized settings for Bitcoin , Ether, and Altcoins as well as the ability to customize your own settings.
Trading Filters : allows refining signal strength by using EMAs, Ichimoku Cloud , and Parabolic SAR to filter trades.
Support and Resistance : displays traditional and DM based pivots on various time frames.
Risk Management:
Bars to Form Stoploss : allows for adjustment of bars necessary to dynamically adjust stoploss.
Risk Type : allows for backtesting calculations using % risk to account or leverage.
Display options : allows for displaying trade entry and stop loss levels either near candles or in a table.
Backtesting:
Session : allows filtering by trading session hours.
Day of Week Filter : allows filtering trading by specific day of the week.
Backtesting Time : allows adjustments to backtesting dates.
Alerts : allows for customized alert messages.
Usage :
The indicator is optimized for the 4 hour timeframe. A green bullish or red bearish signal candle indicates there has been a meaningful shift towards the respective trend direction. When a long/short entry signal is given, that means the signal candle has been confirmed and a trade can be entered accordingly.
Once a signal has been generated, a dynamically adjust stoploss will appear and self-adjust every 24-48 hours. Your stoploss should be trailed accordingly.
NOTE: Displayed back-testing results are on Binance:ADAUSDT default settings, from 2018-2023, using 3% risk, and 0.075% commission.
DCA Simulator A simple yet powerful Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) simulator.
You just add the script to your chart, and you'll be able to see:
- Every single entry with its size
- The evolution of you average price in time (blue line)
- The profit and loss areas (where market price < average price the DCA is at loss, and the background is colored in red. At the contrary, where mkt price is > average price, it's profit area and the background is green).
- Max drawdown: the point in price and time where the DCA loss is maximum in the considered time interval. The drawdown amount is specified.
- Profit (or loss) and total cost at the end of the time interval or at the present day: the script shows how much the DCA is netting at a profit or loss, as well as the total cost of the DCA itself.
The parameters are:
- Date start and date end: time interval of the DCA simulation
- DCA period (you can choose between daily, weekly and monthly)
- Week day or month day if you choose those periods
- Single operation size (in base currency)
- Option to choose a DCA LONG or DCA SHORT (for uber bears)
- Option to include an exit strategy that partially closes your position (the % size closed can be chosen as well with the parameter "exit_close_perc") every time the DCA realizes a specific gain (choosable with the parameter "exit_gain_threshold"). If you choose "none" as an exit strategy, the script will assume to never close positions until the end of the period or the present day for simulation purpose.
NB: just ignore the TV strategy tester results, all the data are visible on the chart.
TTP OSC SuperTrendThis strategy instead of following the trend of the price it follows the trend of an oscillator.
You can follow the trend of RSI or CCI.
We use SuperTrend applied to either oscillator for entering a long.
Position can close from
- using a stop loss percentage parameter
- or when entering downtrend
- or when using TP% when the target is achieved
Ideas:
- Use the SuperTrend multiplier to match the oscillator behaviour, CCI moves less, so I use 1.5 multiplier. With RSI I use 3
- I find this strategy works great to do swing trades during bull markets. When backtesting BTCUSDT it outperforms buy and hold before the beginning of the bear market.
- Try RSI 7 instead of RSI 14 for faster response
Alerts
It supports separated payloads for each alert type:
1- Deal open
2- TP% reached
3- SL%
4- Downtrend deal close

Band-Zigzag - TrendFollower Strategy [Trendoscope]Strategy Time!!!
Have built this on my earlier published indicator Band-Zigzag-Trend-Follower . This is just one possible implementation of strategy on Band-Based-Zigzag .
🎲 Notes
Experimental prototype. Not financial advise and strategy not guaranteed to make money despite backtest results
Not created or tested for any specific instrument or timeframe
Test and adopt with own risk
🎲 Strategy
This is trend following strategy built based on Bands and Zigzag. Traits of trend following strategies are
Lower win rate (Yes, thats right)
High risk reward (Compensates low win rate)
Higher drawdown
If market is choppy, trend following methods suffer.
The script implements few points to overcome the negatives such as lower win rate and higher drawdown by actively assessing pivots on the direction of trend along. This helps us take regular profits and exit on time during the end of trend. Most of the other concepts are defined and explained in indicator - Band-Zigzag-Trend-Follower and Band-Based-Zigzag
Defining a trend following method is simple. Basic rule of trend following is Buy High and Sell Low (Yes, you heard it right). To explain further - methodology involve finding an established trend which is flying high and join the trend with proper risk and optimal stop. Once you get into the trade, you will not exit unless there is change in the trend. Or in other words, the parameters which you used to define trend has reversed and the trend is not valid anymore.
🎯 Using bands
When price breaks out of upper bands (example, Bollinger Band , Keltener Channel, or Donchian Channel), with a pre determined length and multiplier, we can consider the trend to be bullish and similarly when price breaks down the lower band, we can consider the trend to be bearish .
🎯 Using Pivots
Simple logic using zigzag or pivot points is that when price starts making higher highs and higher lows, we can consider this as uptrend. And when price starts making lower highs and lower lows, we can consider this as downtrend. There are few supertrend implementations I have published in the past based on zigzags and pivot points .
Drawbacks of both of these methods is that there will be too many fluctuations in both cases unless we increase the reference length. And if we increase the reference length, we will have higher drawdown.
🎯 Band Based Zigzag Method
Here we use bands to define our pivot high and pivot low - this makes sure that we are identifying trend only on breakouts as pivots are only formed on breakouts
Our method also includes pivot ratio to cross over 1.0 to be able to consider it as trend. This means, we are waiting for price also to make new high high or lower low before making the decision on trend. But, this helps us ignore smaller pivot movements due to the usage of bands.
I have also implemented few tricks such as sticky bands (Bands will not contract unless there is breakout) and Adaptive Bands (Band will not expand unless price is moving in the direction of band). This makes the trend following method very robust.
To avoid fakeouts, we also use percentB of high/low in comparison with price retracement to define breakout.
🎲 Settings
Settings are fairly simpler and are explained as below. You will find most of the required information in tooltips.
Flying Dragon Trend StrategyFlying Dragon Trend Strategy can be used to indicate the trend on all timeframes by finetuning the input settings.
The Flying Dragon Trend family includes both the strategy and the indicator, where the strategy supports of selecting the optimal set of inputs for the indicator in each scenario. Highly recommended to get familiar with the strategy first to get the best out of the indicator.
Flying Dragon Trend plots the trend bands into the ribbon, where the colours indicate the trend of each band. The plotting of the bands can be turned off in the input settings. Based on the user selectable Risk Level the strategy is executed when the price crosses the certain moving average line, or at the Lowest risk level all the bands have the same colour.
The main idea is to combine two different moving averages to cross each other at the possible trend pivot point, but trying to avoid any short term bounces to affect the trend indication. The ingenuity resides in the combination of selected moving average types, lengths and especially the offsets. The trend bands give visual hint for the user while observing the price interaction with the bands, one could say that when "the Dragon swallows the candles the jaws wide open", then there is high possibility for the pivot. The leading moving average should be fast while the lagging moving average should be, well, lagging behind the leading one. There is Offset selections for each moving average, three for leading one and one for the lagging one, those are where the magic happens. After user has selected preferred moving average types and lengths, by tuning each offset the optimal sweet spot for each timeframe and equity will be found. The default values are good enough starting points for longer (4h and up) timeframes, but shorter timeframes (minutes to hours) require different combination of settings, some hints are provided in tooltips. Basically the slower the "leading" moving average (like HMA75 or HMA115) and quicker the "lagging" moving average (like SMA12 or SMA5) become, the better performance at the Lowest risk level on minute scales. This "reversed" approach at the minute scales is shown also as reversed colour for the "lagging" moving average trend band, which seems to make it work surprisingly well.
The Flying Dragon Trend does not necessarily work well on zig zag and range bounce scenarios without additional finetuning of the input settings to fit the current condition.

Bull Trend Filtered StochRSI (BTFS)Ride Bull Trends Via Stochastic with Special Rules for Heavy Bullish Bias
TLDR: Long Only Trend Indicator Where you are always entered Long if the stochastic is over the lower band line and the price is above the Donchian Chanel high. Exit when Stochastic RSI is below the lower band.
Indicators:
Filter = Trend/Bullish indicator is Donchian of ema(high) this is set as the highest ema(high, 6) in the last 30 candles. this can be adjusted to fit the market as desired.
**indicator prints green background when the filter condition is satisfied***
Entry Exit = enter when the Stoch RSI is above the given lower trend band. This value is set at 35 but can be adjusted according to risk tolerance and market conditions.
Logic:
this indicator allows a trader to be present during bullish/parabolic trends by only triggering if the close is > than the highest 6 candle average high over the last 30 candles. This filter requires the market to be in a generally bullish posture. If the market is in this condition the stochastic RSI indicator value offers a good gauge of price action and only goes significantly down if price trends below the average range of the rsi period. This filters out noise and keeps a trader from over trading on inconsequential corrections while responding fairly quickly to changes in general trend direction. the response is fast enough to produce an unprofitable amount of false signals if the bull market filter is not implemented. However when used in combination the signals return desirable results in bull trending markets.
Hope this Helps. Happy Trades.

TTMW+ : TTMW Trend-Following System TTMW Trend-Following System
Developed by Stamp - To The Milky Way
# What is TTMW Trend Following System ? #
- TTMW Trend-Following System is designed and developed by "To The Milky Way". The indicator is very simple and useful for low time-preference trader, the concept of the indicator is to follow the trend when the strong buy momentum is indicated using the only indicator ,RSI (Relative Strength Index), to provide the signal for the traders. The cross-over of RSI and overbought value indicates the strong Buy momentum and the possible FOMO state, labels the Buy Signal which is indicated on the chart. The cross-under of RSI and oversold value indicated the strong Sell momentum that would be the Take-Profit or Stop-Loss target.
- The TTMW Trend-Following System is able to Backtest the performance of the system with any specific ticker by using the Strategy Tester that is provided in Tradingview, so the traders can verify the past performance of the system performing in any specify ticker before making the investing decision.
- The Trend Following system is better to use in large timeframe. The indicator is designed and developed to perform on 1D Timeframe.
# How to use ? #
- The system is very simple to use. The system is designed for 3 trading style (Normal, Aggressive, Super Aggressive) which can be selected in the setting. Traders can select the trading style which fit the best with their trading style.
- The system is developed with the Dashboard that can be enabled in the setting. The Dashboard provides the major informations that can help the traders.
- The system has an alert function that can be used to alert via Email when the Buy or Sell signal is triggered.
Ichimoku Cloud and ADX with Trailing Stop Loss (by Coinrule)The Ichimoku Cloud is a collection of technical indicators that show support and resistance levels, as well as momentum and trend direction. It does this by taking multiple averages and plotting them on a chart. It also uses these figures to compute a “cloud” that attempts to forecast where the price may find support or resistance in the future.
The Ichimoku Cloud was developed by Goichi Hosoda, a Japanese journalist, and published in the late 1960s. It provides more data points than the standard candlestick chart. While it seems complicated at first glance, those familiar with how to read the charts often find it easy to understand with well-defined trading signals.
The Ichimoku Cloud is composed of five lines or calculations, two of which comprise a cloud where the difference between the two lines is shaded in.
The lines include a nine-period average, a 26-period average, an average of those two averages, a 52-period average, and a lagging closing price line.
The cloud is a key part of the indicator. When the price is below the cloud, the trend is down. When the price is above the cloud, the trend is up.
The above trend signals are strengthened if the cloud is moving in the same direction as the price. For example, during an uptrend, the top of the cloud is moving up, or during a downtrend, the bottom of the cloud is moving down.
DMI is simple to interpret. When +DI > - DI, it means the price is trending up. On the other hand, when -DI > +DI, the trend is weak or moving on the downside. The ADX does not give an indication of the direction but about the strength of the trend.
Typically values of ADX above 25 mean that the trend is steeply moving up or down, based on the -DI and +DI positioning. This script aims to capture swings in the DMI, and thus, in the trend of the asset, using a contrarian approach.
Trading on high values of ADX, the strategy tries to spot extremely oversold and overbought conditions. Values of ADX above 45 may suggest that the trend has overextended and is maybe about to reverse.
This strategy combines the Ichimoku Cloud with the ADX indicator to better enter trades.
Long orders are placed when these basic signals are triggered.
Long Position:
Tenkan-Sen is above the Kijun-Sen
Chikou-Span is above the close of 26 bars ago
Close is above the Kumo Cloud
MACD line crosses over the signal line
-DI is greater than +DI
ADX is greater than 45
Close Position:
3% increase trailing
3% decrease trailing
The script is backtested from December 2022 and provides good returns.
A trading fee of 0.1% is also taken into account and is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance.
The Zig Zag Leveler Strategy 1This indicator is designed to identify potential trade setups in the market using the ZigZag indicator. It uses a combination of the ZigZag indicator and the background fill color to help identify areas of support and resistance. It also uses a pip offset to help with entries and exits. Additionally, it can generate alert conditions when the market direction changes and when a buy or sell signal is generated. This indicator can be used to help identify potential trade setups and can be customized to fit the user's trading strategy.
This indicator takes the guesswork out of trading by providing traders with an array of signals that can help identify entry and exit points. The indicator uses two sets of signals to identify price levels that indicate potential entry and exit points - one set of signals that indicate potential entry points and another set of signals that indicate potential exit points. The indicator also provides traders with a visual representation of the signals that can help them better understand the signals and make informed trading decisions. With this indicator, traders can have a better understanding of the market and have a better chance of making profitable trades.
APIBridge support and resistance strategy for NSE OptionsStrategy Premise:
The strategy works on the Support and Resistance . The user specifies the trigger price and the strategy will open trades as soon as the market closes after crossing the trigger price. The stoploss and target is compulsory and the trades will close if either the target or stoploss is hit or Intraday end session is reached in case of MIS (Intraday settings) or expiry is reached .
If the positional settings (NRML) has been chosen then the trades will close when either stoploss or target hits or expiry is reached
==========Consecutive trades==========
The strategy takes a long entry on call long put short setting and a short position on put long and call short settings so call long and put short entries can be taken one after another without the need of closing the one of them. Similarly put long and call short can be taken one after another.
But put long and call short can not be taken one after another with both the trades open because on tradingview closes the previous long or short when we take short or long respectively. Similarly call long and put short can not be taken one after another with both the trades open

Simple SuperTrend Strategy for BTCUSD 4HHello guys!, If you are a swing trader and you are looking for a simple trend strategy, you should check this one. Based in the supertrend indicator, this strategy will help you to catch big movements in BTCUSD 4H and avoid losses as much as possible in consolidated situations of the market
This strategy was designed for BTCUSD in 4H timeframe
Backtesting context: 2020-01-02 to 2023-01-05 (The strategy has also worked in previous years)
Trade conditions:
Rules are actually simple, the most important thing is the risk and position management of this strategy
For long:
Once Supertrend changes from a downtrend to a uptrend, you enter into a long position. The stop loss will be defined by the atr stop loss
The first profit will be of 0.75 risk/reward ratio where half position will be closed. When this happens, you move the stop loss to break even.
Now, just will be there two situations:
Once Supertrend changes from a uptrend to a downtrend, you close the other half of the initial long position.
If price goes againts the position, the position will be closed due to breakeven.
For short:
Once Supertrend changes from a uptrend to a downtrend, you enter into a short position. The stop loss will be defined by the atr stop loss
The first profit will be of 0.75 risk/reward ratio where half position will be closed. When this happens, you move the stop loss to break even.
Like in the long position, just will be there two situations:
Once Supertrend changes from a downtrend to a uptrend, you close the other half of the initial short position.
If price goes againts the position, the position will be closed due to breakeven.
Risk management
For calculate the amount of the position you will use just a small percent of your initial capital for the strategy and you will use the atr stop loss for this.
Example: You have 1000 usd and you just want to risk 2,5% of your account, there is a long signal at price of 20,000 usd. The stop loss price from atr stop loss is 19,000. You calculate the distance in percent between 20,000 and 19,000. In this case, that distance would be of 5,0%. Then, you calculate your position by this way: (initial or current capital * risk per trade of your account) / (stop loss distance).
Using these values on the formula: (1000*2,5%)/(5,0%) = 500usd. It means, you have to use 500 usd for risking 2.5% of your account.
We will use this risk management for apply compound interest.
Script functions
Inside of settings, you will find some utilities for display atr stop loss, supertrend or positions.
You will find the settings for risk management at the end of the script if you want to change something. But rebember, do not change values from indicators, the idea is to not over optimize the strategy.
If you want to change the initial capital for backtest the strategy, go to properties, and also enter the commisions of your exchange and slippage for more realistic results.
Signals meanings:
L for long position. CL for close long position.
S for short position. CS for close short position.
Tp for take profit (it also appears when the position is closed due to stop loss, this due to the script uses two kind of positions)
Exit due to break even or due to stop loss
Some things to consider
USE UNDER YOUR OWN RISK. PAST RESULTS DO NOT REPRESENT THE FUTURE.
DEPENDING OF % ACCOUNT RISK PER TRADE, YOU COULD REQUIRE LEVERAGE FOR OPEN SOME POSITIONS, SO PLEASE, BE CAREFULL AND USE CORRECTLY THE RISK MANAGEMENT
The amount of trades closed in the backtest are not exactly the real ones. If you want to know the real ones, go to settings and change % of trade for first take profit to 100 for getting the real ones. In the backtest, the real amount of opened trades was of 194.

Pink trading (3 MA + RSI)Strategy intended for scalping on forex, commodities , crypto on a timeframe not less than m15.
The strategy is based on 3 means: fast, slow and trend. RSI is used for filter signals.
Long signals are generated when fast mean crossover slow mean and the price is over the trend mean
Short signals are generated when fast mean crossunder slow mean and the price is under the trend mean
You can choose type of mean between SMA , RMA, EMA , WMA , VWMA as well the source of values between all standard sources
RSI is used to filter the signals:
Long only if RSI is grater than 50 and the SMA of RSI (with the same period as fast mean) is ascending,
Short only if RSI is less than 50 RSI mean is descending
The trade is closed or at reaching of a Take Profit (setting in % of price, in standard forex = 100pip per %) or at reaching of maximum open candles period.
The Stop Loss is set as the lowest/highest value of the "Min/Max SL back candles" candles
Default values gives a good balance for forex, for crypto and commodities you can tweek parameters for better results
in markets with high volatility you can increase Take Profit level but keep maximum number of candles low
Open DriveOpen Drive is a market profile concept introduced by Jim Dalton. It occurs when the price moves directionally and persistently for the first 30 minutes from the cash market open.
It is necessary to use 30-minute bars as there needs to be enough time to measure an extreme move of the cash open. This means there will be fewer trades than other strategies using faster time periodicities.
The script finds open drives from these time points 0700/ 0800 and 1300/1430.
The entry signal also has a breakout threshold using the 5-bar high and 5-bar low to only take trades moving away from the prior 5-bar range. This weeds out most mid-range trades and small range expansion bars.
If the price has had a strong move from the open and has broken either below the prior 5-bar low or above the prior 5-bar high by an amount equal to the prior 5-bar range a trade is entered in the direction of the move.
The Exit criteria; exit after 3 bars which is 90mins when using a 30min periodicity.
Note, this script is shared to show that momentum generated on or around the cash open tends to persist. The entry and exits of this strategy are quite naive but there are plenty of ways to take more aggressive entries on faster time frames when an open drive occurs. The times chosen for this strategy will suit stock index futures mainly. The user can experiment with other futures products and their corresponding pit/ cash open hours.
Google "open drive market profile" for more information on open drives and market profile concepts.
Happy trading!
APIBridge Candlestick Reversal SystemStrategy Premise
This strategy uses the Wick Reversal System introduced in Pivot Boss and generates signals based on Candlestick Patterns.
– Wick Reversal System
– Extreme Reversal System
– Outside Reversal System
– Doji Reversal System
Wick Reversal System:
1. For a Bullish reversal wick to exist, the close of the bar should fall within the top 35% of the overall range of the candle.
2. For a bearish reversal wick to exist, the close of the bar should fall within the bottom 35% of the overall range of the candle.
Extreme Reversal System:
1. The first bar of the pattern is about two times larger than the average size of the candles in the look-back period.
2. The body of the first bar of the pattern should encompass more than 50% of the bar’s total range, but usually not more than 85%.
3. The second bar of the pattern opposes the first. If the first bar of the pattern is bullish (C > 0), then the second bar must be bearish (C < 0). If the first bar is bearish (C < 0), then the second bar must be bullish (C > 0).
Outside Reversal System:
1. The Engulfing bar of a bullish outside reversal setup has a low that is below the prior bar’s low (L < L) and a close that is above the prior bar’s high (C > H).
2. The Engulfing bar of a bearish outside reversal setup has a high that is above the prior bar’s high (H > H) and a close that is below the prior bar’s low (C < L).
3. The Engulfing bar is usually 5 to 25 percent larger than the size of the average bar in the look-back period.
Doji Reversal System:
1. The open and close prices of the Doji should fall within 10 percent of each other, as measured by the total range of the Candlestick .
2. For a Bullish Doji , the high of the Doji Candlestick should be below the ten-period Simple Moving Average (H SMA (10)).
4. For a Bearish Doji , one of the two bars following the Doji must close beneath the low of the Doji (C < L or C < L).
5. For a Bullish Doji setup, one of the two bars following the Doji must close above the high of the Doji (C > H) or C > H)
