OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Minervini TT + IBD RS + ENTRY

What this script does (overall)
This indicator implements a Minervini-style stock selection and entry system with mechanical risk control:
Trend Template (TT)
Uses 50 / 150 / 200 SMA alignment
Requires price to be above key moving averages
Ensures the stock is sufficiently above its 52-week low and not too far from its 52-week high
Relative Strength (IBD-style proxy vs TOPIX)
Compares the stock’s performance against TOPIX
Requires RS to be rising and making new relative highs
Detects RS breakdowns as “no-add / exit watch” warnings
ENTRY conditions (Pivot + Volume + VCP)
Breakout above a pivot high
Volume expansion on breakout
Volatility contraction using ATR% (VCP-like behavior)
Visual signals
BUY label: quality conditions pass
ENTRY label: valid breakout entry
RS BREAK label: relative strength deterioration
What was newly added / updated (important)
🔴 Mechanical stop-loss logic (NEW)
After each ENTRY signal, the script now:
Draws two horizontal stop-loss lines
SL -5% from the ENTRY bar’s high
SL -8% from the ENTRY bar’s high
Lines extend to the right automatically
Detects stop-loss touches
When price (low or close, configurable) crosses below:
SL -5% → SL5 trigger
SL -8% → SL8 trigger
Displays an upward arrow on the bar where each SL is touched
Sends alerts with fixed (const) messages
Handles multiple trades cleanly
If a stop-loss was hit and a new ENTRY appears later:
The previous SL lines are grayed out and dotted
Past exit markers (arrows) remain visible
Prevents inconsistent calculations by evaluating crossunders on every bar
👉 This enables fully mechanical, Minervini-style loss control without discretionary judgment.
