TradeBuilderOverview
TradeBuilder is an ever-growing toolbox that lets you combine and compound any number of bundled indicators and algorithms to create a compound strategy. At launch, we're including two Moving Averages (SMA, EMA), RSI, and Stochastic Oscillator, with many more to come. You can use any combination of indicators, be it just one, two, or all.
Key Concepts
Indicator Integration: Tradebuilder allows the use of Moving Averages, RSI, and Stochastic Oscillators, with customizable parameters for each. More indicators to come.
Mode Selection : Choose between Confirm Trend Mode (using indicators to confirm trends) and Momentum Mode (using indicators to spot reversals).
Trade Flexibility : Offers options for both long and short trades, enabling diverse trading strategies.
Customizable Inputs : Easily toggle indicators on or off and adjust specific settings like periods and thresholds.
Signal Generation : Combines multiple conditions to generate entry and exit signals.
Input Parameters:
Moving Average (MA):
use_ma : Enable this to include the Moving Average in your strategy.
ma_cross_type : Choose between "Close/MA" (price crossing the MA) or "MA/MA" (one MA crossing another).
ma_length : Set the period for the primary MA.
ma_type : Choose between "SMA" (Simple Moving Average) or "EMA" (Exponential Moving Average).
ma_length2 : Set the period for the secondary MA if using the "MA/MA" cross type.
ma_type2 : Set the type for the secondary MA.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
use_rsi : Enable this to include RSI in your strategy.
rsi_length : Set the period for RSI calculation.
rsi_overbought : Define the overbought level.
rsi_oversold : Define the oversold level.
Stochastic Oscillator:
use_stoch : Enable this to include the Stochastic Oscillator in your strategy.
stoch_k : Set the %K period.
stoch_d : Set the %D period.
stoch_smooth : Define the smoothing factor.
stoch_overbought : Set the overbought level.
stoch_oversold : Set the oversold level.
Confirmation or Momentum Mode:
confirm_trend : Set this to true to use RSI and Stochastic Oscillator to confirm trends (long when above overbought, short when below oversold). Set to false to trade on momentum (short when above overbought, long when below oversold).
Tip: When set to false and used with just momentum oscillators like Stochastic or RSI, it's geared toward scalping as it essentially becomes momentum trading.
Trade Directions:
trade_long : Enable to allow long trades.
trade_short : Enable to allow short trades.
Example Strategy on E-mini S&P 500 Index Futures ( CME_MINI:ES1! ), 1-minute Chart
Let’s say you want to create a strategy to go long when:
A 5-period SMA crosses above a 100-period EMA.
RSI is above 20.
The Stochastic Oscillator is above 95.
Trend Confirmation Mode is on.
For short:
A 5-period SMA crosses below a 100-period EMA.
RSI is below 45.
The Stochastic Oscillator is below 5.
Trend Confirmation Mode is on.
Here’s how you would set it up in Tradebuilder:
use_ma = true
ma_cross_type = "MA/MA"
ma_length = 5
ma_type = "SMA"
ma_length2 = 100
ma_type2 = "EMA"

AlgoBuilder [Mean-Reversion] | FractalystWhat's the strategy's purpose and functionality?
This strategy is designed for both traders and investors looking to rely and trade based on historical and backtested data using automation.
The main goal is to build profitable mean-reversion strategies that outperform the underlying asset in terms of returns while minimizing drawdown.
For example, as for a benchmark, if the S&P 500 (SPX) has achieved an estimated 10% annual return with a maximum drawdown of -57% over the past 20 years, using this strategy with different entry and exit techniques, users can potentially seek ways to achieve a higher Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) while maintaining a lower maximum drawdown.
Although the strategy can be applied to all markets and timeframes, it is most effective on stocks, indices, future markets, cryptocurrencies, and commodities and JPY currency pairs given their trending behaviors.
In trending market conditions, the strategy employs a combination of moving averages and diverse entry models to identify and capitalize on upward market movements. It integrates market structure-based moving averages and bands mechanisms across different timeframes and provides exit techniques, including percentage-based and risk-reward (RR) based take profit levels.
Additionally, the strategy has also a feature that includes a built-in probability function for traders who want to implement probabilities right into their trading strategies.
Performance summary, weekly, and monthly tables enable quick visualization of performance metrics like net profit, maximum drawdown, profit factor, average trade, average risk-reward ratio (RR), and more.
This aids optimization to meet specific goals and risk tolerance levels effectively.
-----
How does the strategy perform for both investors and traders?
The strategy has two main modes, tailored for different market participants: Traders and Investors.
Trading:
1. Trading:
- Designed for traders looking to capitalize on bullish trending markets.
- Utilizes a percentage risk per trade to manage risk and optimize returns.
- Suitable for active trading with a focus on mean-reversion and risk per trade approach.
◓: Mode | %: Risk percentage per trade
3. Investing:
- Geared towards investors who aim to capitalize on bullish trending markets without using leverage while mitigating the asset's maximum drawdown.
- Utilizes pre-define percentage of the equity to buy, hold, and manage the asset.
- Focuses on long-term growth and capital appreciation by fully investing in the asset during bullish conditions.
- ◓: Mode | %: Risk not applied (In investing mode, the strategy uses 10% of equity to buy the asset)

What's is FRMA? How does the triple bands work? What are the underlying calculations?
Middle Band (FRMA):
The middle band is the core of the FRMA system. It represents the Fractalyst Moving Average, calculated by identifying the most recent external swing highs and lows in the market structure.
By determining these external swing pivot points, which act as significant highs and lows within the market range, the FRMA provides a unique moving average that adapts to market structure changes.
Upper Band:
The upper band shows the average price of the most recent external swing highs.
External swing highs are identified as the highest points between pivot points in the market structure.
This band helps traders identify potential overbought conditions when prices approach or exceed this upper band.
Lower Band:
The lower band shows the average price of the most recent external swing lows.
External swing lows are identified as the lowest points between pivot points in the market structure.
The script utilizes this band to identify potential oversold conditions, triggering entry signals as prices approach or drop below the lower band.
Adjustments Based on User Inputs:
Users can adjust how the upper and lower bands are calculated based on their preferences:
Upper/Lower: This method calculates the average bands using the prices of external swing highs and lows identified in the market.
Percentage Deviation from FRMA: Alternatively, users can opt to calculate the bands based on a percentage deviation from the middle FRMA. This approach provides flexibility to adjust the width of the bands relative to market conditions and volatility.
-----
What's the purpose of using moving averages in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
Using moving averages is a widely-used technique to trade with the trend.
The main purpose of using moving averages in this strategy is to filter out bearish price action and to only take trades when the price is trading ABOVE specified moving averages.
The script uses different types of moving averages with user-adjustable timeframes and periods/lengths, allowing traders to try out different variations to maximize strategy performance and minimize drawdowns.
By applying these calculations, the strategy effectively identifies bullish trends and avoids market conditions that are not conducive to profitable trades.
The MA filter allows traders to choose whether they want a specific moving average above or below another one as their entry condition.
This comparison filter can be turned on (>) or off.
For example, you can set the filter so that MA#1 > MA#2, meaning the first moving average must be above the second one before the script looks for entry conditions. This adds an extra layer of trend confirmation, ensuring that trades are only taken in more favorable market conditions.
⍺: MA Period | Σ: MA Timeframe
-----
What entry modes are used in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
The strategy by default uses two different techniques for the entry criteria with user-adjustable left and right bars: Breakout and Fractal.
1. Breakout Entries :
- The strategy looks for pivot high points with a default period of 3.
- It stores the most recent high level in a variable.
- When the price crosses above this most recent level, the strategy checks if all conditions are met and the bar is closed before taking the buy entry.
◧: Pivot high left bars period | ◨: Pivot high right bars period
2. Fractal Entries :
- The strategy looks for pivot low points with a default period of 3.
- When a pivot low is detected, the strategy checks if all conditions are met and the bar is closed before taking the buy entry.
◧: Pivot low left bars period | ◨: Pivot low right bars period
2. Hunt Entries :
- The strategy identifies a candle that wicks through the lower FRMA band.
- It waits for the next candle to close above the low of the wick candle.
- When this condition is met and the bar is closed, the strategy takes the buy entry.
By utilizing these entry modes, the strategy aims to capitalize on bullish price movements while ensuring that the necessary conditions are met to validate the entry points.
-----
What type of stop-loss identification method are used in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
Initial Stop-Loss:
1. ATR Based:
The Average True Range (ATR) is a method used in technical analysis to measure volatility. It is not used to indicate the direction of price but to measure volatility, especially volatility caused by price gaps or limit moves.
Calculation:
- To calculate the ATR, the True Range (TR) first needs to be identified. The TR takes into account the most current period high/low range as well as the previous period close.
The True Range is the largest of the following:
- Current Period High minus Current Period Low
- Absolute Value of Current Period High minus Previous Period Close
- Absolute Value of Current Period Low minus Previous Period Close
- The ATR is then calculated as the moving average of the TR over a specified period. (The default period is 14).
Example - ATR (14) * 2
⍺: ATR period | Σ: ATR Multiplier
2. ADR Based:
The Average Day Range (ADR) is an indicator that measures the volatility of an asset by showing the average movement of the price between the high and the low over the last several days.
Calculation:
- To calculate the ADR for a particular day:
- Calculate the average of the high prices over a specified number of days.
- Calculate the average of the low prices over the same number of days.
- Find the difference between these average values.
- The default period for calculating the ADR is 14 days. A shorter period may introduce more noise, while a longer period may be slower to react to new market movements.
Example - ADR (20) * 2
⍺: ADR period | Σ: ADR Multiplier
3. PL Based:
This method places the stop-loss at the low of the previous candle.
If the current entry is based on the hunt entry strategy, the stop-loss will be placed at the low of the candle that wicks through the lower FRMA band.
Example:
If the previous candle's low is 100, then the stop-loss will be set at 100.
This method ensures the stop-loss is placed just below the most recent significant low, providing a logical and immediate level for risk management.
Application in Strategy (ATR/ADR):
- The strategy calculates the current bar's ADR/ATR with a user-defined period.
- It then multiplies the ADR/ATR by a user-defined multiplier to determine the initial stop-loss level.
By using these methods, the strategy dynamically adjusts the initial stop-loss based on market volatility, helping to protect against adverse price movements while allowing for enough room for trades to develop.
Each market behaves differently across various timeframes, and it is essential to test different parameters and optimizations to find out which trailing stop-loss method gives you the desired results and performance.
-----
What type of break-even and take profit identification methods are used in this strategy? What are the underlying calculations?
For Break-Even:
Percentage (%) Based:
Moves the initial stop-loss to the entry price when the price reaches a certain percentage above the entry.
Calculation:
Break-even level = Entry Price * (1 + Percentage / 100)
Example:
If the entry price is $100 and the break-even percentage is 5%, the break-even level is $100 * 1.05 = $105.
Risk-to-Reward (RR) Based:
Moves the initial stop-loss to the entry price when the price reaches a certain RR ratio.
Calculation:
Break-even level = Entry Price + (Initial Risk * RR Ratio)
Example:
If the entry price is $100, the initial risk is $10, and the RR ratio is 2, the break-even level is $100 + ($10 * 2) = $120.
FRMA Based:
Moves the stop-loss to break-even when the price hits the FRMA level at which the entry was taken.
Calculation:
Break-even level = FRMA level at the entry
Example:
If the FRMA level at entry is $102, the break-even level is set to $102 when the price reaches $102.
For TP1 (Take Profit 1):
- You can choose to set a take profit level at which your position gets fully closed or 50% if the TP2 boolean is enabled.
- Similar to break-even, you can select either a percentage (%) or risk-to-reward (RR) based take profit level, allowing you to set your TP1 level as a percentage amount above the entry price or based on RR.
For TP2 (Take Profit 2):
- You can choose to set a take profit level at which your position gets fully closed.
- As with break-even and TP1, you can select either a percentage (%) or risk-to-reward (RR) based take profit level, allowing you to set your TP2 level as a percentage amount above the entry price or based on RR.
When Both Percentage (%) Based and RR Based Take Profit Levels Are Off:
The script will adjust the take profit level to the higher FRMA band set within user inputs.
Calculation:
Take profit level = Higher FRMA band length/timeframe specified by the user.
This ensures that when neither percentage-based nor risk-to-reward-based take profit methods are enabled, the strategy defaults to using the higher FRMA band as the take profit level, providing a consistent and structured approach to profit-taking.
For TP1 and TP2, it's specifying the price levels at which the position is partially or fully closed based on the chosen method (percentage or RR) above the entry price.
These calculations are crucial for managing risk and optimizing profitability in the strategy.

What's the ADR filter? What does it do? What are the underlying calculations?
The Average Day Range (ADR) measures the volatility of an asset by showing the average movement of the price between the high and the low over the last several days.
The period of the ADR filter used in this strategy is tied to the same period you've used for your initial stop-loss.
Users can define the minimum ADR they want to be met before the script looks for entry conditions.
ADR Bias Filter:
- Compares the current bar ADR with the ADR (Defined by user):
- If the current ADR is higher, it indicates that volatility has increased compared to ADR (DbU).(⬆)
- If the current ADR is lower, it indicates that volatility has decreased compared to ADR (DbU).(⬇)
Calculations:
1. Calculate ADR:
- Average the high prices over the specified period.
- Average the low prices over the same period.
- Find the difference between these average values in %.
2. Current ADR vs. ADR (DbU):
- Calculate the ADR for the current bar.
- Calculate the ADR (DbU).
- Compare the two values to determine if volatility has increased or decreased.
By using the ADR filter, the strategy ensures that trades are only taken in favorable market conditions where volatility meets the user's defined threshold, thus optimizing entry conditions and potentially improving the overall performance of the strategy.
>: Minimum required ADR for entry | %: Current ADR comparison to ADR of 14 days ago.
-----
What's the probability filter? What are the underlying calculations?
The probability filter is designed to enhance trade entries by using buyside liquidity and probability analysis to filter out unfavorable conditions.
This filter helps in identifying optimal entry points where the likelihood of a profitable trade is higher.
Calculations:
1. Understanding Swing highs and Swing Lows
Swing High: A Swing High is formed when there is a high with 2 lower highs to the left and right.
Swing Low: A Swing Low is formed when there is a low with 2 higher lows to the left and right.
2. Understanding the purpose and the underlying calculations behind Buyside, Sellside and Equilibrium levels.
3. Understanding probability calculations
1. Upon the formation of a new range, the script waits for the price to reach and tap into equilibrium or the 50% level. Status: "⏸" - Inactive
2. Once equilibrium is tapped into, the equilibrium status becomes activated and it waits for either liquidity side to be hit. Status: "▶" - Active
3. If the buyside liquidity is hit, the script adds to the count of successful buyside liquidity occurrences. Similarly, if the sellside is tapped, it records successful sellside liquidity occurrences.
5. Finally, the number of successful occurrences for each side is divided by the overall count individually to calculate the range probabilities.
Note: The calculations are performed independently for each directional range. A range is considered bearish if the previous breakout was through a sellside liquidity. Conversely, a range is considered bullish if the most recent breakout was through a buyside liquidity.
Example - BSL > 55%
-----
What's the range length Filter? What are the underlying calculations?
The range length filter identifies the price distance between buyside and sellside liquidity levels in percentage terms. When enabled, the script only looks for entries when the minimum range length is met. This helps ensure that trades are taken in markets with sufficient price movement.
Calculations:
Range Length (%) = ( ( Buyside Level − Sellside Level ) / Current Price ) ×100
Range Bias Identification:
Bullish Bias: The current range price has broken above the previous external swing high.
Bearish Bias: The current range price has broken below the previous external swing low.
Example - Range length filter is enabled | Range must be above 1%
>: Minimum required range length for entry | %: Current range length percentage in a (Bullish/Bearish) range
-----
What's the day filter Filter, what does it do?
The day filter allows users to customize the session time and choose the specific days they want to include in the strategy session. This helps traders tailor their strategies to particular trading sessions or days of the week when they believe the market conditions are more favorable for their trading style.
Customize Session Time:
Users can define the start and end times for the trading session.
This allows the strategy to only consider trades within the specified time window, focusing on periods of higher market activity or preferred trading hours.
Select Days:
Users can select which days of the week to include in the strategy.
This feature is useful for excluding days with historically lower volatility or unfavorable trading conditions (e.g., Mondays or Fridays).
Benefits:
Focus on Optimal Trading Periods:
By customizing session times and days, traders can focus on periods when the market is more likely to present profitable opportunities.
Avoid Unfavorable Conditions:
Excluding specific days or times can help avoid trading during periods of low liquidity or high unpredictability, such as major news events or holidays.
Increased Flexibility: The filter provides increased flexibility, allowing traders to adapt the strategy to their specific needs and preferences.
Example - Day filter | Session Filter
θ: Session time | Exchange time-zone
-----
What tables are available in this script?
Table Type:
- Summary: Provides a general overview, displaying key performance parameters such as Net Profit, Profit Factor, Max Drawdown, Average Trade, Closed Trades and more.
Avg Trade: The sum of money gained or lost by the average trade generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the Net Profit by the overall number of closed trades. An important value since it must be large enough to cover the commission and slippage costs of trading the strategy and still bring a profit.
MaxDD: Displays the largest drawdown of losses, i.e., the maximum possible loss that the strategy could have incurred among all of the trades it has made. This value is calculated separately for every bar that the strategy spends with an open position.
Profit Factor: The amount of money a trading strategy made for every unit of money it lost (in the selected currency). This value is calculated by dividing gross profits by gross losses.
Avg RR: This is calculated by dividing the average winning trade by the average losing trade. This field is not a very meaningful value by itself because it does not take into account the ratio of the number of winning vs losing trades, and strategies can have different approaches to profitability. A strategy may trade at every possibility in order to capture many small profits, yet have an average losing trade greater than the average winning trade. The higher this value is, the better, but it should be considered together with the percentage of winning trades and the net profit.
Winrate: The percentage of winning trades generated by a strategy. Calculated by dividing the number of winning trades by the total number of closed trades generated by a strategy. Percent profitable is not a very reliable measure by itself. A strategy could have many small winning trades, making the percent profitable high with a small average winning trade, or a few big winning trades accounting for a low percent profitable and a big average winning trade. Most mean-reversion successful strategies have a percent profitability of 40-80% but are profitable due to risk management control.
BE Trades: Number of break-even trades, excluding commission/slippage.
Losing Trades: The total number of losing trades generated by the strategy.
Winning Trades: The total number of winning trades generated by the strategy.
Total Trades: Total number of taken traders visible your charts.
Net Profit: The overall profit or loss (in the selected currency) achieved by the trading strategy in the test period. The value is the sum of all values from the Profit column (on the List of Trades tab), taking into account the sign.
- Monthly: Displays performance data on a month-by-month basis, allowing users to analyze performance trends over each month.
- Weekly: Displays performance data on a week-by-week basis, helping users to understand weekly performance variations.
- OFF: Hides the performance table.
Profit Color:
- Allows users to set the color for representing profit in the performance table, helping to quickly distinguish profitable periods.
Loss Color:
- Allows users to set the color for representing loss in the performance table, helping to quickly identify loss-making periods.
These customizable tables provide traders with flexible and detailed performance analysis, aiding in better strategy evaluation and optimization.
-----
User-input styles and customizations:
To facilitate studying historical data, all conditions and rules can be applied to your charts. By plotting background colors on your charts, you'll be able to identify what worked and what didn't in certain market conditions.
Please note that all background colors in the style are disabled by default to enhance visualization.

HMA Crossover 1H with RSI, Stochastic RSI, and Trailing StopThe strategy script provided is a trading algorithm designed to help traders make informed buy and sell decisions based on certain technical indicators. Here’s a breakdown of what each part of the script does and how the strategy works:
Key Components:
Hull Moving Averages (HMA):
HMA 5: This is a Hull Moving Average calculated over 5 periods. HMAs are used to smooth out price data and identify trends more quickly than traditional moving averages.
HMA 20: This is another HMA but calculated over 20 periods, providing a broader view of the trend.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
RSI 14: This is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements over a 14-period timeframe. It helps identify overbought or oversold conditions in the market.
Stochastic RSI:
%K: This is the main line of the Stochastic RSI, which combines the RSI and the Stochastic Oscillator to provide a more sensitive measure of overbought and oversold conditions. It is smoothed with a 3-period simple moving average.
Trading Signals:
Buy Signal:
Generated when the 5-period HMA crosses above the 20-period HMA, indicating a potential upward trend.
Additionally, the RSI must be below 45, suggesting that the market is not overbought.
The Stochastic RSI %K must also be below 39, confirming the oversold condition.
Sell Signal:
Generated when the 5-period HMA crosses below the 20-period HMA, indicating a potential downward trend.
The RSI must be above 60, suggesting that the market is not oversold.
The Stochastic RSI %K must also be above 63, confirming the overbought condition.
Trailing Stop Loss:
This feature helps protect profits by automatically selling the position if the price moves against the trade by 5%.
For sell positions, an additional trailing stop of 100 points is included.
MA MACD BB BackTesterOverview:
This Pine Script™ code provides a comprehensive backtesting tool that combines Moving Average (MA), Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), and Bollinger Bands (BB). It is designed to help traders analyze market trends and make informed trading decisions by testing various strategies over historical data.
Key Features:
1. Customizable Indicators:
Moving Average (MA): Smooths out price data for clearer trend direction.
MACD: Measures trend momentum through MACD Line, Signal Line, and Histogram.
Bollinger Bands (BB): Identifies overbought or oversold conditions with upper and lower bands.
2. Flexible Trading Direction: Choose between long or short positions to adapt to different market conditions.
3. Risk Management: Efficiently allocate your capital with customizable position sizes.
4. Signal Generation:
Buy Signals: Triggered by crossovers for MACD, MA, and BB.
Sell Signals: Triggered by crossunders for MACD, MA, and BB.
5. Automated Trading: Automatically enter and exit trades based on signal conditions and strategy parameters.
How It Works:
1. Indicator Selection: Select your preferred indicator (MA, MACD, BB) and trading direction (Long/Short).
2. Risk Management Configuration: Set the percentage of capital to allocate per position to manage risk effectively.
3.Signal Detection: The algorithm identifies and plots buy/sell signals directly on the chart based on the chosen indicator.
4. Trade Execution: The strategy automatically enters and exits trades based on signal conditions and configured strategy parameters.
Use Cases:
- Backtesting: Evaluate the effectiveness of trading strategies using historical data to understand potential performance.
- Strategy Development: Customize and expand the strategy to incorporate additional indicators or conditions to fit specific trading styles.
ADDONS That Affect Strategy:
1. Indicator Parameters:
Adjustments to the settings of MACD (e.g., fast length, slow length), MA (e.g., length), and BB (e.g., length, multiplier) will directly impact the detection of signals and the strategy's performance.
2. Trading Direction:
Changing the trading direction (Long/Short) will alter the entry and exit conditions based on the detected signals.
3. Risk Management Settings:
Modifying the position size percentage affects capital allocation and overall risk exposure per trade.
ADDONS That Do Not Affect Strategy:
1. Visual Customizations:
Changes to the color, shape, and style of the plotted lines and signals do not impact the core functionality of the strategy but enhance visual clarity.
2. Text and Labels:
Modifying text labels for the signals (such as renaming "Buy MACD" to "MACD Buy Signal") is purely cosmetic and does not influence the strategy’s logic or outcomes.
Notes:
- Customization: The indicator is highly customizable to fit various trading styles and market conditions.
- Risk Management: Adjust position sizes and risk parameters according to your risk tolerance and account size.
- Optimization: Regularly backtest and optimize parameters to adapt to changing market dynamics for better performance.
Getting Started:

Our backtesting system for the Advanced SMC (ASMC) indicator is meticulously designed to provide traders with a thorough analysis of their Smart Money Concept (SMC) strategies. Here’s an overview of how it works:
🔸 Advanced SMC Structure
Our ASMC indicator is built upon an enhanced SMC structure that integrates the Institutional Distribution Model (IDM), precise retracements, and five types of order blocks (CHoCH OB, IDM OB, Local OB, BOS OB, Extreme OB). These components allow for a detailed understanding of market dynamics and the identification of key trading opportunities.
🔸 Data Integration and Analysis
1. Historical Data Testing:
Our system tests various entry and exit points using historical market data.
The ASMC indicator is used to simulate trades based on predefined SMC setups, evaluating their effectiveness over a specified time period.
Traders can select different parameters such as entry points, stop-loss, and take-profit levels to see how these setups would have performed historically.
2. Entry and Exit Events:
The backtester can simulate trades based on 12 different entry events, 14 target events, and 14 stop-loss events, providing a comprehensive testing framework.
It allows for testing with multiple combinations of entry and exit strategies, ensuring a robust evaluation of trading setups.
3. Order Block Sensitivity:
The system uses the sensitivity settings from the ASMC indicator to determine the most relevant order blocks and fair value gaps (FVGs) for entry and exit points.
It distinguishes between different types of order blocks, helping traders identify strong institutional zones versus local zones.
🔸 Optimization Capabilities
1. Auto-Optimizer:
The backtester includes an auto-optimizer feature that evaluates various setups to find those with the best historical performance.
It automatically adjusts parameters to identify the most effective strategies for both trend-following and counter-trend trading.
2. Stop Loss and Take Profit Optimization:
It optimizes stop-loss and take-profit levels by testing different settings and identifying those that provided the best historical results.
This helps traders refine their risk management and maximize potential returns.
3. Trailing Stop Optimization:
The system also optimizes trailing stops, ensuring that traders can maximize their profits by adjusting their stops dynamically as the market moves.
🔸 Comprehensive Reporting
1. Performance Metrics:
The backtesting system provides detailed reports, including key performance metrics such as Net Profit, Win Rate, Profit Factor, and Max Drawdown.
These metrics help traders understand the historical performance of their strategies and make data-driven decisions.
2. Flexible Settings:
Traders can adjust initial balance, commission rates, and risk per trade settings to simulate real-world trading conditions.
The system supports testing with different leverage settings, allowing for realistic assessments even with tight stop-loss levels.
🔸 Conclusion
The RunRox Backtesting System (ASMC) is a powerful tool for traders seeking to validate and optimize their SMC strategies. By leveraging historical data and sophisticated optimization algorithms, it provides insights into the most effective setups, enhancing trading performance and decision-making.

🟠 EXAMPLE OF MANUAL SETUP
For example, let me show you how it works on the chart. You select entry parameters, stop loss parameters, and take profit parameters for your trades, and the strategy automatically tests this setup on historical data, allowing you to see the results of this strategy.
In the screenshot above, the parameters were as follows:
Trade Entry: CHoCH OB (Beginning)
Stop Loss: Entry Block
Take Profit: Break of BOS
The indicator will automatically test all possible trades on the chart and display the results for this setup.
🟠 AUTO OPTIMIZATION SETTINGS
In the screenshot above, you can see the optimization table displaying various entry points, exits, and stop-loss settings, along with their historical performance results and other parameters. This feature allows you to identify trading setups that have shown the best historical outcomes.
This functionality will enhance your trading approach, providing you with valuable insights based on historical data. You’ll be aware of the Smart Money Concept settings that have historically worked best for any specific chart and timeframe.
Our indicator includes various optimization options designed to help you find the most effective settings based on historical data. There are 5 optimization modes, each offering unique benefits for every trader
Trend Entry - Optimization of the best settings for trend-following trades. The strategy will enter trades only in the direction of the trend. If the trend is upward, it will look for long entry points and vice versa.
Counter Trend Entry - Finding setups against the trend. If the trend is upward, the script will search for short entry points. This is the opposite of trend entry optimization.
Stop Loss - Identifying stop-loss points that showed the best historical performance for the specific setup you have configured. This helps in finding effective exit points to minimize losses.
Take Profit - Determining targets for the configured setup based on historical performance, helping to identify potentially profitable take profit levels.
Trailing Stop - Finding optimal percentages for the trailing stop function based on historical data, which can potentially increase the profit of your trades.
Ability to set parameters for auto-optimization within a specified range. For example, if you choose FixRR TP from 1 to 10, the indicator will automatically test all possible Risk Reward Take Profit variations from 1 to 10 and display the results for each parameter individually.
Ability to set initial deposit parameters, position commissions, and risk per trade as a fixed percentage or fixed amount. Additionally, you can set the maximum leverage for a trade.
There are times when the stop loss is very close to the entry point, and adhering to the risk per trade values set in the settings may not allow for such a loss in any situation. That’s why we added the ability to set the maximum possible leverage, allowing you to test your trading strategy even with very tight stop losses.
Duplicated Smart Money Structure settings from our Advanced SMC indicator that you can adjust to match your trading style flexibly. All these settings will be taken into account during the optimization process or when manually calculating settings.
Additionally, you can test your strategy based on higher timeframe order blocks. For example, you can test a strategy on a 1-minute chart while displaying order blocks from a 15-minute timeframe. The auto-optimizer will consider all these parameters, including higher timeframe order blocks, and will enter trades based on these order blocks.
Highly flexible dashboard and results optimization settings allow you to display the tables you need and sort results by six different criteria: Profit Factor, Profit, Winrate, Max Drawdown, Wins, and Trades. This enables you to find the exact setup you desire, based on these comprehensive data points.
🟠 ALERT CUSTOMIZATION
With this indicator, you can set up buy and sell alerts based on the test results, allowing you to create a comprehensive trading strategy. This feature enables you to receive real-time signals, making it a powerful tool for implementing your trading strategies.
🟠 STRATEGY PROPERTIES
For backtesting, we used realistic initial data for entering trades, such as:
Starting balance: $1000
Commission: 0.01%
Risk per trade: 1%
To ensure realistic data, we used the above settings. We offer two methods for calculating your order size, and in our case, we used a 1% risk per trade. Here’s what it means:
Risk per trade: This is the maximum loss from your deposit if the trade goes against you. The trade volume can change depending on your stop-loss distance from the entry point. Here’s the formula we use to calculate the possible volume for a single trade:
1. quantity = percentage_risk * balance / loss_per_1_contract (incl. fee)
Then, we calculate the maximum allowed volume based on the specified maximum leverage:
2. max_quantity = maxLeverage * balance / entry_price
3. If quantity < max_quantity, meaning the leverage is less than the maximum allowed, we keep quantity. If quantity > max_quantity, we use max_quantity (the maximum allowed volume according to the set leverage).
This way, depending on the stop-loss distance, the position size can vary and be up to 100% of your deposit, but the loss in each trade will not exceed the set percentage, which in our case is 1% for this backtest. This is a standard risk calculation method based on your stop-loss distance.
🔸 Statistical Significance of Trade Data
In our strategy, you may notice there weren’t enough trades to form statistically significant data. This is inherent to the Smart Money Concept (SMC) strategy, where the focus is not on the number of trades but rather on the risk-to-reward ratio per trade. In SMC strategies, it’s crucial to avoid taking numerous uncertain setups and instead perform a comprehensive analysis of the market situation.
Therefore, our strategy results show fewer than 100 trades. It’s important to understand that this small sample size isn’t statistically significant and shouldn’t be relied upon for strategy analysis. Backtesting with a small number of trades should not be used to draw conclusions about the effectiveness of a strategy.
🔸 Versatile Use Cases
The methods of using this indicator are numerous, ranging from identifying potentially the best-performing order blocks on the chart to creating a comprehensive trading strategy based on the data provided by our indicator. We believe that every trader will find a valuable application for this tool, enhancing their entry and exit points in trades.

Price Based Z-Trend - Strategy [presentTrading]█ Introduction and How it is Different
Z-score: a statistical measurement of a score's relationship to the mean in a group of scores.
Simple but effective approach.
The "Price Based Z-Trend - Strategy " leverages the Z-score, a statistical measure that gauges the deviation of a price from its moving average, normalized against its standard deviation. This strategy stands out due to its simplicity and effectiveness, particularly in markets where price movements often revert to a mean. Unlike more complex systems that might rely on a multitude of indicators, the Z-Trend strategy focuses on clear, statistically significant price movements, making it ideal for traders who prefer a streamlined, data-driven approach.
BTCUSD 6h LS Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 Calculation of the Z-score
"Z-score is a statistical measurement that describes a value's relationship to the mean of a group of values. Z-score is measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean. If a Z-score is 0, it indicates that the data point's score is identical to the mean score. A Z-score of 1.0 would indicate a value that is one standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores may be positive or negative, with a positive value indicating the score is above the mean and a negative score indicating it is below the mean."
The Z-score is central to this strategy. It is calculated by taking the difference between the current price and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the price over a user-defined length, then dividing this by the standard deviation of the price over the same length:
z = (x - μ) /σ
Local
🔶 Trading Signals
Trading signals are generated based on the Z-score crossing predefined thresholds:
- Long Entry: When the Z-score crosses above the positive threshold.
- Long Exit: When the Z-score falls below the negative threshold.
- Short Entry: When the Z-score falls below the negative threshold.
- Short Exit: When the Z-score rises above the positive threshold.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows users to select their preferred trading direction through an input option.
█ Usage
To use this strategy effectively, traders should first configure the Z-score thresholds according to their risk tolerance and market volatility. It's also crucial to adjust the length for the EMA and standard deviation calculations based on historical performance and the expected "noise" in price data.
The strategy is designed to be flexible, allowing traders to refine settings to better capture profitable opportunities in specific market conditions.
█ Default Settings
- Trade Direction: Both
- Standard Deviation Length: 100
- Average Length: 100
- Threshold for Z-score: 1.0
- Bar Color Indicator: Enabled
These settings offer a balanced starting point but can be customized to suit various trading styles and market environments. The strategy's parameters are designed to be adjusted as traders gain experience and refine their approach based on ongoing market analysis.
Z-score is a must-learn approach for every algorithmic trader.
Pullback_Power [JackTz]Welcome to Pullback_Power
Pullback_Power is a scalping strategy designed to capitalize on market retracements while incorporating unique dynamic features to enhance profitability.
Calculation
Pullback_Power purely uses moving averages to calculate both entry and exits. Exits can also be set to fixed percentages for both take profit and stop loss.
How the Strategy Works
Statistics show that markets normally do a recovery after each drop. Crypto markets can easily drop up to 20% within a few hours and then do a complete or partial recovery. Pullback_Power utilizes this known pattern alongside pyramiding. The strategy aims to catch one or more entries when the price drops, hoping to make profits when the market recovers from the drop. The fixed take profit and stop loss can be used to define your risk management, while the dynamic exit opportunity is riskier but provides the ability to stay in the trade longer while it recovers. Pullback_Power can make up to four entries. This means it utilizes pyramiding to spread out the entry points, but every exit is a full exit. It is not possible to partially exit.
Utility
Pullback_Power is a scalping strategy suitable for traders who operate with small trades and don't want to stay in the market for too long. Pullback_Power offers precise signals with no repainting. The strategy thrives in volatility, so crypto pairs might yield the best results, although this strategy can be adapted to work on all pairs and markets.
How to Automate It
Pullback_Power utilizes the standard placeholders of strategies on TradingView. This enables the trader to add every data point into a webhook, making it fully flexible to suit every trader's needs. To automate, create an alert, set the webhook URL, and add the JSON body needed for the webhook. An example of a simple JSON webhook with some of the standard strategy placeholders:
{
"side": "{{strategy.order.action}}",
"symbol": "{{ticker}}",
"amount": "{{strategy.order.contracts}}"
}
Read about all the standard placeholders that you can use here: TradingView - Standard strategy placeholders
Originality
Pullback_Power is unique in its ability to create precise signals without repainting while maintaining a solid approach to the pullback strategy. Its simplicity not only makes the strategy easy to use and understand but also highly effective. The simplicity reduces inputs, eliminating overfitting and limits each input to avoid incorrect usage. Many times, default settings are enough to achieve good backtesting results on almost all pairs available. Pullback_Power also differs from many other strategies by its solid code, which enhances performance and provides more reliable backtesting. The clean code increases the resilience and precision of the entries, making it less prone to errors.
Many pullback/scalping strategies normally only works on specific scopes of timeframes or pairs. Pullback_Power can easily be adapted to work on almost every scenario. The biggest change needed is the length of the moving average. The lower the timeframe, the higher a length is needed for proper results. I.e. on a 2H timeframe a length of 3 can yield good results. On a 5min timeframe the length might need to be as high as 70.
How to Use
To use Pullback_Power, add the script to your trading chart. By default, Pullback_Power opens four orders to optimize trade opportunities with a default fee value set at 0.1%. You can change these default settings in the Settings window under the Properties tab. To tailor Pullback_Power to your individual trading style, navigate to the Settings under the Input tab. Here you can configure various inputs to fit your trading style.
- Backtest settings , Start Date:
Defines the date of when the calculation starts. Use this to set the date of when the first trade could potentially emit.
- Backtest settings , End Date:
Defines the date of when the calculation ends. If there are any open trades after this date the close calculations are still live. It only makes sure that new orders cannot be opened after this date.
- Backtest settings , Only trade on weekdays:
This is a toggle you can enable or disable. If enabled it only allows new entries to happen during the normal week days, meaning Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
Disable this to enable the script to open trades on all 7 days of the week.
- Open settings , Use dynamic long positions:
This toggle allows you to enable or disable the pullback level calculations after first trade.
If enabled, the calculations of level 2, 3 and 4 continues to happen after each bar, making the levels follow the price with the moving averages calculations.
If disabled, the calculations of the levels stop after the first trade. This means that the levels calculation at the point of the first trade stay fixed until all trades are closed.
You can see the difference of the green lines on the chart when you toggle this flag.
- Open settings , Data type:
This is the bar data used for the moving average calculation when opening trades. The possible data types are Open, High, Low, Close, HL2, HLC3, OHLC4, OC2 and HC2.
- Open settings , Source type:
This is the source used to calculate the moving average. The types available are: SMA, PCMA, EMA, WMA, DEMA, ZLEMA and HMA.
- Open settings , Length:
This is the length used for the moving average calculations. 3 means it takes the last 3 bars of historical data for the calculation.
- Open settings , Offset:
This defines if the calculation should use an offset for the historical data. This does not use a look-forward feature, but a look-backward feature. To prevent any possible repaints the offset can only be positive, not negative.
For instance, if the length is 3 and the offset is 0 the calculation is made from the last 3 bars, making it bar1, bar2 and bar3. If the length is 3 and the offset is 1 the calculation is made from bar2, bar3, and bar4 – offsetting the calculation by 1 bar.
- Leverage settings , Leverage liquidation (1-125):
The script itself does not handle any custom leverage calculation – this must be done in the Properties tabs and increasing the order size.
This setting is made to test a possible liquidation event if using leverage.
By setting this to higher than 1, a red line is visible after the first trade on the chart. This indicates the liquidation price.
If this setting is set to 25, the script will calculate the liquidation price from a x25 leverage. If this price is hit, the scripts stops emitting any orders and the background turns red.
You can use this to test if your settings could handle a certain level of leverage.
- Pullback settings , Pullback 1, 2, 3 and 4:
Each of these settings defines the entry price of each pullback level. If Pullback 1 is set to -6 it means that the moving average calculation should be 6% lower than the actual price.
The same logic applies to Pullback 2, 3 and 4.
Setting any level to 0 will disable the level – eliminating any orders to emit on that level.
This can be used to change the level of pyramiding down from 4 if needed.
If you do this, remember to also change the order size and the pyramiding value in the Properties tab accordingly.
- Close settings , Use dynamic TP and SL:
If enabled, script will exit all orders using the same but separate algorithm for moving averages. This enables the user to define if you want the orders to be closed if the price level of this moving average is hit. The price level for this calculation is visible on the chart by the blue line.
Although you can change the length and offset, as described underneath, this calculation uses the same data and source type defined in the Open settings area.
- Close settings , Length, Close:
This is the length used for the closing moving average calculations. 3 means it takes the last 3 bars of historical data for the calculation.
- Close settings , Offset, Close:
This defines if the calculation for the closing moving average should use an offset for the historical data. Just as the offset used for opening order, this does not use a look-forward feature, but a look-backward feature. To prevent any possible repaints the offset can only be positive, not negative.
For instance, if the length is 3 and the offset is 0 the calculation is made from the last 3 bars, making it bar1, bar2 and bar3. If the length is 3 and the offset is 1 the calculation is made from bar2, bar3, and bar4 – offsetting the calculation by 1 bar.
- Close settings , Use TakeProfit:
This toggle enables/disables a fixed take profit percentage.
- Close settings , TP %:
This sets the wanted % to reach on a take profit. This setting is ignored if the toggle above is disabled.
- Close settings , Use StopLoss:
This toggle enables/disables a fixed stop loss percentage.
- Close settings , SL %:
This sets the wanted % to reach on a stop loss. This setting is ignored if the toggle above is disabled.
Exit on Same Bar as Entry
By default, the script doesn't emit any exit orders on the same bar as the first entry order. Enable "Recalculation: After order is filled" to change this behavior.
Troubleshooting
While Pullback_Power is designed to provide reliable trading signals, you may encounter rare issues. One such issue could be receiving an error message stating "can't open orders with 0 or negative qty." If you encounter this error, it is likely due to specific conditions on the selected timeframe. To resolve this issue, change the timeframe on your trading chart.
Underlying Principles and Value Proposition
Pullback_Power leverages moving averages and volatility behavior to identify market retracements and capitalize on them. The strategy is rooted in the understanding that markets often experience temporary reversals or "pullbacks" before resuming their primary trend. By identifying these pullbacks and entering trades at opportune moments, Pullback_Power aims to capture quick profits from short-term market movements.
The dynamic and fixed calculations of Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels enhances risk management, ensuring that potential losses are controlled while allowing room for profits to grow. The adaptive approach using the moving averages considers current market conditions, making the strategy flexible and responsive to changing volatility.
Moreover, Pullback_Power's non-repainting nature ensures the reliability of its signals, eliminating hindsight bias and providing traders with actionable insights based on real-time market data.
The strategy's simplicity and effectiveness make it accessible for traders of all experience levels. Whether you're a beginner looking to start scalping or an experienced trader seeking to diversify your trading approach, Pullback_Power offers a balanced blend of simplicity and sophistication to help you navigate the markets with confidence.
By focusing on clear, transparent principles and offering practical tools for risk management, Pullback_Power aims to provide tangible value to traders, empowering them to make informed decisions and optimize their trading outcomes.
Thank you for choosing Pullback_Power. I wish you successful trading!
Fine-tune Inputs: Fourier Smoothed Volume zone oscillator WFSVZ0Use this Strategy to Fine-tune inputs for the (W&)FSVZ0 Indicator.
Strategy allows you to fine-tune the indicator for 1 TimeFrame at a time; cross Timeframe Input fine-tuning is done manually after exporting the chart data.
I suggest using "Close all" input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame. When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using "Close all" input as True, except for the lowest TimeFrame.
MEANINGFUL DESCRIPTION:
The Volume Zone oscillator breaks up volume activity into positive and negative categories. It is positive when the current closing price is greater than the prior closing price and negative when it's lower than the prior closing price. The resulting curve plots through relative percentage levels that yield a series of buy and sell signals, depending on level and indicator direction.
The Wavelet & Fourier Smoothed Volume Zone Oscillator (W&)FSVZO is a refined version of the Volume Zone Oscillator, enhanced by the implementation of the Discrete Fourier Transform . Its primary function is to streamline price data and diminish market noise, thus offering a clearer and more precise reflection of price trends.
By combining the Wavalet and Fourier aproximation with Ehler's white noise histogram, users gain a comprehensive perspective on volume-related market conditions.
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR:
The default period is 2 but can be adjusted after backtesting. (I suggest 5 VZO length and NoiceR max length 8 as-well)
The VZO points to a positive trend when it is rising above the 0% level, and a negative trend when it is falling below the 0% level. 0% level can be adjusted in setting by adjusting VzoDifference. Oscillations rising below 0% level or falling above 0% level result in a natural trend.
HOW TO USE THE STRATEGY:
Here you fine-tune the inputs until you find a combination that works well on all Timeframes you will use when creating your Automated Trade Algorithmic Strategy. I suggest 4h, 12h, 1D, 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D, W and M.
When I ndicator/Strategy returns 0 or natural trend , Strategy Closes All it's positions.
ORIGINALITY & USFULLNESS:
Personal combination of Fourier and Wavalet aproximation of a price which results in less noise Volume Zone Oscillator.
The Wavelet Transform is a powerful mathematical tool for signal analysis, particularly effective in analyzing signals with varying frequency or non-stationary characteristics. It dissects a signal into wavelets, small waves with varying frequency and limited duration, providing a multi-resolution analysis. This approach captures both frequency and location information, making it especially useful for detecting changes or anomalies in complex signals.
The Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) is a mathematical technique that transforms discrete data from the time domain into its corresponding representation in the frequency domain. This process involves breaking down a signal into its individual frequency components, thereby exposing the amplitude and phase characteristics inherent in each frequency element.
This indicator utilizes the concept of Ehler's Universal Oscillator and displays a histogram, offering critical insights into the prevailing levels of market noise. The Ehler's Universal Oscillator is grounded in a statistical model that captures the erratic and unpredictable nature of market movements. Through the application of this principle, the histogram aids traders in pinpointing times when market volatility is either rising or subsiding.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
My detailed description of the indicator and use cases which I find very valuable.
What is oscillator?
Oscillators are chart indicators that can assist a trader in determining overbought or oversold conditions in ranging (non-trending) markets.
What is volume zone oscillator?
Price Zone Oscillator measures if the most recent closing price is above or below the preceding closing price.
Volume Zone Oscillator is Volume multiplied by the 1 or -1 depending on the difference of the preceding 2 close prices and smoothed with Exponential moving Average.
What does this mean?
If the VZO is above 0 and VZO is rising. We have a bullish trend. Most likely.
If the VZO is below 0 and VZO is falling. We have a bearish trend. Most likely.
Rising means that VZO on close is higher than the previous day.
Falling means that VZO on close is lower than the previous day.
What if VZO is falling above 0 line?
It means we have a high probability of a bearish trend.
Thus the indicator returns 0 and Strategy closes all it's positions when falling above 0 (or rising bellow 0) and we combine higher and lower timeframes to gauge the trend.
In the next Image you can see that trend is negative on 4h, negative on 12h and positive on 1D. That means trend is negative.
I am sorry, the chart is a bit messy. The idea is to use the indicator over more than 1 Timeframe.
What is approximation and smoothing?
They are mathematical concepts for making a discrete set of numbers a
continuous curved line.
Fourier and Wavelet approximation of a close price are taken from aprox library.
Key Features:
You can tailor the Indicator/Strategy to your preferences with adjustable parameters such as VZO length, noise reduction settings, and smoothing length.
Volume Zone Oscillator (VZO) shows market sentiment with the VZO, enhanced with Exponential Moving Average (EMA) smoothing for clearer trend identification.
Noise Reduction leverages Euler's White noise capabilities for effective noise reduction in the VZO, providing a cleaner and more accurate representation of market dynamics.
Choose between the traditional Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) , the innovative Double Discrete Fourier Transform (DTF32) and Wavelet soothed Fourier soothed price series to suit your analytical needs.
Image of Wavelet transform with FAST settings, Double Fourier transform with FAST settings. Improved noice reduction with SLOW settings, and standard FSVZO with SLOW settings:
Fast setting are setting by default:
VZO length = 2
NoiceR max Length = 2
Slow settings are:
VZO length = 5 or 7
NoiceR max Length = 8
As you can see fast setting are more volatile. I suggest averaging fast setting on 4h 12h 1d 2d 3d 4d W and M Timeframe to get a clear view on market trend.
What if I want long only when VZO is rising and above 15 not 0?
You have set Setting VzoDifference to 15. That reduces the number of trend changes.
Example of W&FSVZO with VzoDifference 15 than 0:
VZO crossed 0 line but not 15 line and that's why Indicator returns 0 in one case an 1 in another.
What is Smooth length setting?
A way of calculating Bullish or Bearish (W&)FSVZO .
If smooth length is 2 the trend is rising if:
rising = VZO > ta.ema(VZO, 2)
Meaning that we check if VZO is higher that exponential average of the last 2 elements.
If smooth length is 1 the trend is rising if:
rising = VZO_ > VZO_
Use this Strategy to fine-tune inputs for the (W&)FSVZO Indicator.
(Strategy allows you to fine-tune the indicator for 1 TimeFrame at a time; cross Timeframe Input fine-tuning is done manually after exporting the chart data)
I suggest using " Close all " input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame . When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using " Close all " input as True , except for the lowest TimeFrame . I suggest using 100% equity as your default quantity for fine-tune purposes. I have to mention that 100% equity may lead to unrealistic backtesting results. Be avare. When backtesting for trading purposes use Contracts or USDT.
Fine-Tune Inputs: Fourier Smoothed Hybrid Volume Spread AnalysisUse this Strategy to Fine-tune inputs for the HSHVSA Indicator.

MEANINGFUL DESCRIPTION:
The Fourier Smoothed Hybrid Volume Spread Analysis (FSHVSA) Strategy/Indicator is an innovative trading tool designed to fuse volume analysis with trend detection capabilities, offering traders a comprehensive view of market dynamics.
This Strategy/Indicator stands apart by integrating the principles of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and volume spread analysis, enhanced with a layer of Fourier smoothing to distill market noise and highlight trend directions with unprecedented clarity.
This smoothing process allows traders to discern the true underlying patterns in volume and price action, stripped of the distractions of short-term fluctuations and noise.
The core functionality of the FSHVSA revolves around the innovative combination of volume change analysis, spread determination (calculated from the open and close price difference), and the strategic use of the EMA (default 10) to fine-tune the analysis of spread by incorporating volume changes.
Trend direction is validated through a moving average (MA) of the histogram, which acts analogously to the Volume MA found in traditional volume indicators. This MA serves as a pivotal reference point, enabling traders to confidently engage with the market when the histogram's movement concurs with the trend direction, particularly when it crosses the Trend MA line, signalling optimal entry points.
It returns 0 when MA of the histogram and EMA of the Price Spread are not align.
WHAT IS FSHVSA INDICATOR:
The FSHVSA plots a positive trend when a positive Volume smoothed Spread and EMA of Volume smoothed price is above 0, and a negative when negative Volume smoothed Spread and EMA of Volume smoothed price is below 0. When this conditions are not met it plots 0.
HOW TO USE THE STRATEGY:
Here you fine-tune the inputs until you find a combination that works well on all Timeframes you will use when creating your Automated Trade Algorithmic Strategy. I suggest 4h, 12h, 1D, 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D, W and M.
ORIGINALITY & USEFULNESS:
The FSHVSA Strategy is unique because it applies DFT for data smoothing, effectively filtering out the minor fluctuations and leaving traders with a clear picture of the market's true movements. The DFT's ability to break down market signals into constituent frequencies offers a granular view of market dynamics, highlighting the amplitude and phase of each frequency component. This, combined with the strategic application of Ehler's Universal Oscillator principles via a histogram, furnishes traders with a nuanced understanding of market volatility and noise levels, thereby facilitating more informed trading decisions.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
My detailed description of the indicator and use cases which I find very valuable.
What is the meaning of price spread?
In finance, a spread refers to the difference between two prices, rates, or yields. One of the most common types is the bid-ask spread, which refers to the gap between the bid (from buyers) and the ask (from sellers) prices of a security or asset.
We are going to use Open-Close spread.
What is Volume spread analysis?
Volume spread analysis (VSA) is a method of technical analysis that compares the volume per candle, range spread, and closing price to determine price direction.
What does this mean?
We need to have a positive Volume Price Spread and a positive Moving average of Volume price spread for a positive trend. OR via versa a negative Volume Price Spread and a negative Moving average of Volume price spread for a negative trend.
What if we have a positive Volume Price Spread and a negative Moving average of Volume Price Spread?
It results in a neutral, not trending price action.
Thus the Indicator/Strategy returns 0 and Closes all long and short positions.
In the next Image you can see that trend is negative on 4h, we just move Negative on 12h and Positive on 1D. That means trend/Strategy flipped negative .
I am sorry, the chart is a bit messy. The idea is to use the indicator/strategy over more than 1 Timeframe.
Use this Strategy to fine-tune inputs for the HSHVSA Indicator.
(Strategy allows you to fine-tune the indicator for 1 TimeFrame at a time; cross Timeframe Input fine-tuning is done manually after exporting the chart data)
I suggest using " Close all " input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame. When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using " Close all " input as True , except for the lowest TimeFrame. I suggest using 100% equity as your default quantity for fine-tune purposes. I have to mention that 100% equity may lead to unrealistic backtesting results. Be avare. When backtesting for trading purposes use Contracts or USDT.
NASDAQ 100 Peak Hours StrategyNASDAQ 100 Peak Hours Trading Strategy
Description
Our NASDAQ 100 Peak Hours Trading Strategy leverages a carefully designed algorithm to trade within specific hours of high market activity, particularly focusing on the first two hours of the trading session from 09:30 AM to 11:30 AM GMT-5. This period is identified for its increased volatility and liquidity, offering numerous trading opportunities.
The strategy incorporates a blend of technical indicators to identify entry and exit points for both long and short positions. These indicators include:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) : A short-term 9-period EMA and a longer-term 21-period EMA to determine the market trend and momentum.
Relative Strength Index (RSI) : A 14-period RSI to gauge the market's momentum.
Average True Range (ATR) : A 14-period ATR to assess market volatility and to set dynamic stop losses and trailing stops.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) : To identify the market's average price weighted by volume, serving as a benchmark for the trading day.
Our strategy uniquely applies a volatility filter using the ATR, ensuring trades are only executed in conditions that favor our setup. Additionally, we consider the direction of the EMAs to confirm the market's trend before entering trades.
Originality and Usefulness
This strategy stands out by combining these indicators within the NASDAQ 100's peak hours, exploiting the specific market conditions that prevail during these times. The inclusion of a volatility filter and dynamic stop-loss mechanisms based on the ATR provides a robust method for managing risk.
By focusing on the early trading hours, the strategy aims to capture the initial market movements driven by overnight news and the opening rush, often characterized by higher volatility. This approach is particularly useful for traders looking to maximize gains from short-term fluctuations while limiting exposure to longer-term market uncertainty.
Strategy Results
To ensure the strategy's effectiveness and reliability, it has undergone rigorous backtesting over a significant dataset to produce a sample size of more than 100 trades. This testing phase helps in identifying the strategy's potential in various market conditions, its consistency, and its risk-to-reward ratio.
Our backtesting adheres to realistic trading conditions, accounting for slippage and commission to reflect actual trading scenarios accurately. The strategy is designed with a conservative approach to risk management, advising not to risk more than 5-10% of equity on a single trade. The default settings in the script align with these principles, ensuring that users can replicate our tested conditions.
Using the Strategy
The strategy is designed for simplicity and ease of use:
Trade Hours : Focuses on 09:30 AM to 11:30 AM GMT-5, during the NASDAQ 100's peak activity hours.
Entry Conditions : Trades are initiated based on the alignment of EMAs, RSI, VWAP, and the ATR's volatility filter within the designated time frame.
Exit Conditions : Includes dynamic trailing stops based on ATR, a predefined time exit strategy, and a trend reversal exit condition for risk management.
This script is a powerful tool for traders looking to leverage the NASDAQ 100's peak hours, providing a structured approach to navigating the early market hours with a robust set of criteria for making informed trading decisions.

BitBell - EMA PullBack RSI EXO
🔵 Introduction
Version 1.1
This is a Pine 5 trend following strategy. It has a four strategy with several alerts and signals. The design intent is to produce a commercial grade signal generator that can be adapted to any symbol in cryptocurrency and only 1H Chart. Ideally, the script is reliable enough to be the basis of an automated trading system web-hooked to a server with API access to crypto brokerages. The strategy can be run in three different modes: long, short and bidirectional.
As a trend following strategy, the behavior of the script is to buy on strength and sell on weakness. As such the trade orders maintain its directional bias according to price pressure. What you will see on the chart is long positions on the left side of the mountain and short on the right. Long and short positions are not intermingled as long as there exists a detectable trend. This is extremely beneficial feature in long running bull or bear markets. The script uses multiple setups to avoid the situation where you got in on the trend, took a small profit but couldn’t get back in because the logic is waiting for a pullback or some other intricate condition.
Deep draw-downs are a characteristic of trend following systems and this system is no different. However, this script makes use of the TradingView pyramid feature with three NPUs to find better place and even you can change drop percentage in settings for another trigger, accessible from the properties tab.
When trend market break it will stop the trade and usually it takes 2-4 percent loss but don't worry it has prefect money management and you can use it for Futures market and even Spot market.
🔵 Design
This script uses twelve indicators on two time frames. The chart (primary) interval and one higher time frame which is based on the primary. The higher time frame identifies the trend for which the primary will trade. I’ve tried to keep the higher time frame around five times greater than the primary. The original trading algorithms are a port from a much larger program on another trading platform. I’ve converted some of the statistical functions to use standard indicators available on TradingView. The setups make heavy use of the Hull Moving Average in conjunction with EMAs that form the Bill Williams Alligator as described in his book “New Trading Dimensions” Chapter 3. Lag between the Hull and the EMAs form the basis of the entry and exit points. The alligator itself is used to identify the trend main body.
The entire script is around 740 lines of Pine code which is the maximum incidental size given the TradingView limits: local scopes, run-time duration and compile time. I’ve been working on this script for over a year and have tested it on various instruments stock crypto. It performs well on higher liquidity markets that have at least a year of historical data. Though it can be configured to work on any interval between 15 minutes and 4 hour, trend trading is generally a longer term paradigm. For day trading the 10 to 15 minute interval will allow you to catch momentum breakouts. For intraweek trades 30 minutes to 1 hour should give you a trade every other a day.
Inputs to the script use cone centric measurements in effort to avoid exposing adjustments to the various internal indicators. The goal was to keep the inputs relevant to the actual trade entry and exit locations as opposed to a series of MA input values and the like. As a result the strategy exposes over 12 inputs grouped into long or short sections. Inputs are available for the usual minimum profit and stop-loss as well as trade, modes, presets, reports and lots of calibrations. The inputs are numerous, I’m aware. Unfortunately, at this time, TradingView does not offer any other method to get data in the script. The usual initialization files such as cnf, cfg, ini, json and xml files are currently unsupported.
Example configurations for various instruments along with a detailed PDF user manual is available.
it has no repaint i guaranty this, and you can have 10 days free with comment and check it by yourself
One issue that comes up when comparing the strategy with the study is that the strategy trades show on the chart one bar later than the study. This problem is due to the fact that “strategy.entry()” and “strategy_close()” do not execute on the same bar called. The study, on the other hand, has no such limitation since there are no position routines. However, alerts that are subsequently fired off when triggered in the study are dispatched from the TradingView servers one bar later from the study plot. Therefore the alert you actually receive on your cell phone matches the strategy plot but is one bar later than the study plot.
Please be aware that the data source matters. Cryptocurrency has no central tick repository so each exchange supplies TradingView its feed. Even though it is the same symbol the quality of the data and subsequently the bars that are supplied to the chart varies with the exchange. This script will absolutely produce different results on different data feeds of the same symbol. Be sure to backtest this script on the same data you intend to receive alerts for. Any example settings I share with you will always have the exchange name used to generate the test results.
🟡 Usage
It sends long and short signals with pyramid orders of up to 3, meaning that the strategy can trigger up to 3 orders in the same direction. Good risk and money management.
It's important to note that the strategy combines 2 systems working together (Long and LongX). Let’s describe the specific features of this strategy.
🔵 If Findes Supports And Ressitances And Trend Lines As Best As It Can, And You Can See:
🟢 Frist Simple Long Condition = It Look At The Trend Wait For RSI Cross 30 Number Then Ckeck Risk To Reward, check something else such as divergence:
🟢 Another Long Example:
🔴 Frist Simple Short Condition = It Look At The Trend Wait For RSI Cross 70 Number Then Ckeck Risk To Reward, check something else such as divergence:
🔴 Another Short Example:
The following steps provide a very brief set of instructions that will get you started but will most certainly not produce the best backtest. A trading system that you are willing to risk your hard earned capital will require a well crafted configuration that involves time, expertise and clearly defined goals. As previously mentioned, I have several example configs that I use for my own trading that I can share with you along with a PDF which describes each input in detail. To get hands on experience in setting up your own symbol from scratch please follow the steps below.
The input dialog box contains over 12 inputs, There are four options must to be configured: Choose Target, side, Choose Settings, Money Management,and settings that apply to both. The following steps address these four main options only.

🔴 CONCLUSION
We believe that success lies in the association of the user with the indicator, opposed to many traders who have the perspective that the indicator itself can make them become profitable. The reality is much more complicated than that.
The aim is to provide an indicator comprehensive, customizable, and intuitive enough that any trader can be led to understand this truth and develop an actionable perspective of technical indicators as support tools for decision making.

3. Strategy Overview
What is the Supertrend Advance Strategy?
The Supertrend Advance Strategy is a refined version of the classic Supertrend Indicator, which was developed to aid traders in spotting market trends. The strategy utilizes a combination of data points, including average true range (ATR) and price momentum, to generate buy and sell signals.
In essence, the Supertrend Advance Strategy can be visualized as a line that moves with the price. When the price is above the Supertrend line, it indicates an uptrend and suggests a potential buy position. Conversely, when the price is below the Supertrend line, it hints at a downtrend, suggesting a potential selling point.
Strategy Goals and Objectives:
1. Trend Identification: At the core of the Supertrend Advance Strategy is the goal to efficiently and consistently identify prevailing market trends. By recognizing these trends, traders can position themselves to capitalize on price movements in their favor.
2. Reducing Noise: Financial markets are often inundated with 'noise' - short-term price fluctuations that can mislead traders. The Supertrend Advance Strategy aims to filter out this noise, allowing for clearer decision-making.
3. Enhancing Risk Management: With clear buy and sell signals, traders can set more precise stop-loss and take-profit points. This leads to better risk management and potentially improved profitability.
4. Versatility: While primarily used for trend identification, the strategy can be integrated with other technical tools and indicators to create a comprehensive trading system.
Type of Assets/Markets to Apply the Strategy:
1. Equities: The Supertrend Advance Strategy is highly popular among stock traders. Its ability to capture long-term trends makes it particularly useful for those trading individual stocks or equity indices.
2. Forex: Given the 24-hour nature of the Forex market and its propensity for trends, the Supertrend Advance Strategy is a valuable tool for currency traders.
3. Commodities: Whether it's gold, oil, or agricultural products, commodities often move in extended trends. The strategy can help in identifying and capitalizing on these movements.
4. Cryptocurrencies: The volatile nature of cryptocurrencies means they can have pronounced trends. The Supertrend Advance Strategy can aid crypto traders in navigating these often tumultuous waters.
5. Futures & Options: Traders and investors in derivative markets can utilize the strategy to make more informed decisions about contract entries and exits.
It's important to note that while the Supertrend Advance Strategy can be applied across various assets and markets, its effectiveness might vary based on market conditions, timeframe, and the specific characteristics of the asset in question. As always, it's recommended to use the strategy in conjunction with other analytical tools and to backtest its effectiveness in specific scenarios before committing to trades.
4. Input Settings
Understanding and correctly configuring input settings is crucial for optimizing the Supertrend Advance Strategy for any specific market or asset. These settings, when tweaked correctly, can drastically impact the strategy's performance.
Grouping Inputs:
Before diving into individual input settings, it's important to group similar inputs. Grouping can simplify the user interface, making it easier to adjust settings related to a specific function or indicator.
Strategy Choice:
This input allows traders to select from various strategies that incorporate the Supertrend indicator. Options might include "Supertrend with RSI," "Supertrend with MACD," etc. By choosing a strategy, the associated input settings for that strategy become available.
Supertrend Settings:
1. Multiplier: Typically, a default value of 3 is used. This multiplier is used in the ATR calculation. Increasing it makes the Supertrend line further from prices, while decreasing it brings the line closer.
2. Period: The number of bars used in the ATR calculation. A common default is 7.
EMA Settings (Exponential Moving Average):
1. Period: Defines the number of previous bars used to calculate the EMA. Common periods are 9, 21, 50, and 200.
2. Source: Allows traders to choose which price (Open, Close, High, Low) to use in the EMA calculation.
RSI Settings (Relative Strength Index):
1. Length: Determines how many periods are used for RSI calculation. The standard setting is 14.
2. Overbought Level: The threshold at which the asset is considered overbought, typically set at 70.
3. Oversold Level: The threshold at which the asset is considered oversold, often at 30.
MACD Settings (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
1. Short Period: The shorter EMA, usually set to 12.
2. Long Period: The longer EMA, commonly set to 26.
3. Signal Period: Defines the EMA of the MACD line, typically set at 9.
CCI Settings (Commodity Channel Index):
1. Period: The number of bars used in the CCI calculation, often set to 20.
2. Overbought Level: Typically set at +100, denoting overbought conditions.
3. Oversold Level: Usually set at -100, indicating oversold conditions.
SL/TP Settings (Stop Loss/Take Profit):
1. SL Multiplier: Defines the multiplier for the average true range (ATR) to set the stop loss.
2. TP Multiplier: Defines the multiplier for the average true range (ATR) to set the take profit.
Filtering Conditions:
This section allows traders to set conditions to filter out certain signals. For example, one might only want to take buy signals when the RSI is below 30, ensuring they buy during oversold conditions.
Trade Direction and Backtest Period:
1. Trade Direction: Allows traders to specify whether they want to take long trades, short trades, or both.
2. Backtest Period: Specifies the time range for backtesting the strategy. Traders can choose from options like 'Last 6 months,' 'Last 1 year,' etc.
It's essential to remember that while default settings are provided for many of these tools, optimal settings can vary based on the market, timeframe, and trading style. Always backtest new settings on historical data to gauge their potential efficacy.
5. Understanding Strategy Conditions
Developing an understanding of the conditions set within a trading strategy is essential for traders to maximize its potential. Here, we delve deep into the logic behind these conditions, using the Supertrend Advance Strategy as our focal point.
Basic Logic Behind Conditions:
Every strategy is built around a set of conditions that provide buy or sell signals. The conditions are based on mathematical or statistical methods and are rooted in the study of historical price data. The fundamental idea is to recognize patterns or behaviors that have been profitable in the past and might be profitable in the future.
Buy and Sell Conditions:
1. Buy Conditions: Usually formulated around bullish signals or indicators suggesting upward price momentum.
2. Sell Conditions: Centered on bearish signals or indicators indicating downward price momentum.
Simple Strategy:
The simple strategy could involve using just the Supertrend indicator. Here:
• Buy: When price closes above the Supertrend line.
• Sell: When price closes below the Supertrend line.
Pullback Strategy:
This strategy capitalizes on price retracements:
• Buy: When the price retraces to the Supertrend line after a bullish signal and is supported by another bullish indicator.
• Sell: When the price retraces to the Supertrend line after a bearish signal and is confirmed by another bearish indicator.
Indicators Used:
EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
• Logic: EMA gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to current price movements. A shorter-period EMA crossing above a longer-period EMA can be a bullish sign, while the opposite is bearish.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
• Logic: RSI measures the magnitude of recent price changes to analyze overbought or oversold conditions. Values above 70 are typically considered overbought, and values below 30 are considered oversold.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence):
• Logic: MACD assesses the relationship between two EMAs of a security’s price. The MACD line crossing above the signal line can be a bullish signal, while crossing below can be bearish.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index):
• Logic: CCI compares a security's average price change with its average price variation. A CCI value above +100 may mean the price is overbought, while below -100 might signify an oversold condition.
And others...
As the strategy expands or contracts, more indicators might be added or removed. The crucial point is to understand the core logic behind each, ensuring they align with the strategy's objectives.
Logic Behind Each Indicator:
1. EMA: Emphasizes recent price movements; provides dynamic support and resistance levels.
2. RSI: Indicates overbought and oversold conditions based on recent price changes.
3. MACD: Showcases momentum and direction of a trend by comparing two EMAs.
4. CCI: Measures the difference between a security's price change and its average price change.
Understanding strategy conditions is not just about knowing when to buy or sell but also about comprehending the underlying market dynamics that those conditions represent. As you familiarize yourself with each condition and indicator, you'll be better prepared to adapt and evolve with the ever-changing financial markets.
6. Trade Execution and Management
Trade execution and management are crucial aspects of any trading strategy. Efficient execution can significantly impact profitability, while effective management can preserve capital during adverse market conditions. In this section, we'll explore the nuances of position entry, exit strategies, and various Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) methodologies within the Supertrend Advance Strategy.
Position Entry:
Effective trade entry revolves around:
1. Timing: Enter at a point where the risk-reward ratio is favorable. This often corresponds to confirmatory signals from multiple indicators.
2. Volume Analysis: Ensure there's adequate volume to support the movement. Volume can validate the strength of a signal.
3. Confirmation: Use multiple indicators or chart patterns to confirm the entry point. For instance, a buy signal from the Supertrend indicator can be confirmed with a bullish MACD crossover.
Position Exit Strategies:
A successful exit strategy will lock in profits and minimize losses. Here are some strategies:
1. Fixed Time Exit: Exiting after a predetermined period.
2. Percentage-based Profit Target: Exiting after a certain percentage gain.
3. Indicator-based Exit: Exiting when an indicator gives an opposing signal.
Percentage-based SL/TP:
• Stop Loss (SL): Set a fixed percentage below the entry price to limit potential losses.
• Example: A 2% SL on an entry at $100 would trigger a sell at $98.
• Take Profit (TP): Set a fixed percentage above the entry price to lock in gains.
• Example: A 5% TP on an entry at $100 would trigger a sell at $105.
Supertrend-based SL/TP:
• Stop Loss (SL): Position the SL at the Supertrend line. If the price breaches this line, it could indicate a trend reversal.
• Take Profit (TP): One could set the TP at a point where the Supertrend line flattens or turns, indicating a possible slowdown in momentum.
Swing high/low-based SL/TP:
• Stop Loss (SL): For a long position, set the SL just below the recent swing low. For a short position, set it just above the recent swing high.
• Take Profit (TP): For a long position, set the TP near a recent swing high or resistance. For a short position, near a swing low or support.
And other methods...
1. Trailing Stop Loss: This dynamic SL adjusts with the price movement, locking in profits as the trade moves in your favor.
2. Multiple Take Profits: Divide the position into segments and set multiple TP levels, securing profits in stages.
3. Opposite Signal Exit: Exit when another reliable indicator gives an opposite signal.
Trade execution and management are as much an art as they are a science. They require a blend of analytical skill, discipline, and intuition. Regularly reviewing and refining your strategies, especially in light of changing market conditions, is crucial to maintaining consistent trading performance.
7. Visual Representations
Visual tools are essential for traders, as they simplify complex data into an easily interpretable format. Properly analyzing and understanding the plots on a chart can provide actionable insights and a more intuitive grasp of market conditions. In this section, we’ll delve into various visual representations used in the Supertrend Advance Strategy and their significance.
Understanding Plots on the Chart:
Charts are the primary visual aids for traders. The arrangement of data points, lines, and colors on them tell a story about the market's past, present, and potential future moves.
1. Data Points: These represent individual price actions over a specific timeframe. For instance, a daily chart will have data points showing the opening, closing, high, and low prices for each day.
2. Colors: Used to indicate the nature of price movement. Commonly, green is used for bullish (upward) moves and red for bearish (downward) moves.
Trend Lines:
Trend lines are straight lines drawn on a chart that connect a series of price points. Their significance:
1. Uptrend Line: Drawn along the lows, representing support. A break below might indicate a trend reversal.
2. Downtrend Line: Drawn along the highs, indicating resistance. A break above might suggest the start of a bullish trend.
Filled Areas:
These represent a range between two values on a chart, usually shaded or colored. For instance:
1. Bollinger Bands: The area between the upper and lower band is filled, giving a visual representation of volatility.
2. Volume Profile: Can show a filled area representing the amount of trading activity at different price levels.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Lines:
These are horizontal lines representing pre-determined exit points for trades.
1. Stop Loss Line: Indicates the level at which a trade will be automatically closed to limit losses. Positioned according to the trader's risk tolerance.
2. Take Profit Line: Denotes the target level to lock in profits. Set according to potential resistance (for long trades) or support (for short trades) or other technical factors.
Trailing Stop Lines:
A trailing stop is a dynamic form of stop loss that moves with the price. On a chart:
1. For Long Trades: Starts below the entry price and moves up with the price but remains static if the price falls, ensuring profits are locked in.
2. For Short Trades: Starts above the entry price and moves down with the price but remains static if the price rises.
Visual representations offer traders a clear, organized view of market dynamics. Familiarity with these tools ensures that traders can quickly and accurately interpret chart data, leading to more informed decision-making. Always ensure that the visual aids used resonate with your trading style and strategy for the best results.
8. Backtesting
Backtesting is a fundamental process in strategy development, enabling traders to evaluate the efficacy of their strategy using historical data. It provides a snapshot of how the strategy would have performed in past market conditions, offering insights into its potential strengths and vulnerabilities. In this section, we'll explore the intricacies of setting up and analyzing backtest results and the caveats one must be aware of.
Setting Up Backtest Period:
1. Duration: Determine the timeframe for the backtest. It should be long enough to capture various market conditions (bullish, bearish, sideways). For instance, if you're testing a daily strategy, consider a period of several years.
2. Data Quality: Ensure the data source is reliable, offering high-resolution and clean data. This is vital to get accurate backtest results.
3. Segmentation: Instead of a continuous period, sometimes it's helpful to backtest over distinct market phases, like a particular bear or bull market, to see how the strategy holds up in different environments.
Analyzing Backtest Results:
1. Performance Metrics: Examine metrics like the total return, annualized return, maximum drawdown, Sharpe ratio, and others to gauge the strategy's efficiency.
2. Win Rate: It's the ratio of winning trades to total trades. A high win rate doesn't always signify a good strategy; it should be evaluated in conjunction with other metrics.
3. Risk/Reward: Understand the average profit versus the average loss per trade. A strategy might have a low win rate but still be profitable if the average gain far exceeds the average loss.
4. Drawdown Analysis: Review the periods of losses the strategy could incur and how long it takes, on average, to recover.
9. Tips and Best Practices
Successful trading requires more than just knowing how a strategy works. It necessitates an understanding of when to apply it, how to adjust it to varying market conditions, and the wisdom to recognize and avoid common pitfalls. This section offers insightful tips and best practices to enhance the application of the Supertrend Advance Strategy.
When to Use the Strategy:
1. Market Conditions: Ideally, employ the Supertrend Advance Strategy during trending market conditions. This strategy thrives when there are clear upward or downward trends. It might be less effective during consolidative or sideways markets.
2. News Events: Be cautious around significant news events, as they can cause extreme volatility. It might be wise to avoid trading immediately before and after high-impact news.
3. Liquidity: Ensure you are trading in assets/markets with sufficient liquidity. High liquidity ensures that the price movements are more reflective of genuine market sentiment and not due to thin volume.
Adjusting Settings for Different Markets/Timeframes:
1. Markets: Each market (stocks, forex, commodities) has its own characteristics. It's essential to adjust the strategy's parameters to align with the market's volatility and liquidity.
2. Timeframes: Shorter timeframes (like 1-minute or 5-minute charts) tend to have more noise. You might need to adjust the settings to filter out false signals. Conversely, for longer timeframes (like daily or weekly charts), you might need to be more responsive to genuine trend changes.
3. Customization: Regularly review and tweak the strategy's settings. Periodic adjustments can ensure the strategy remains optimized for the current market conditions.
10. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Other comments
Value of combining several indicators in this script and how they work together
Diversification of Signals: Just as diversifying an investment portfolio can reduce risk, using multiple indicators can offer varied perspectives on potential price movements. Each indicator can capture a different facet of the market, ensuring that traders are not overly reliant on a single data point.
Confirmation & Reduced False Signals: A common challenge with many indicators is the potential for false signals. By requiring confirmation from multiple indicators before acting, the chances of acting on a false signal can be significantly reduced.
Flexibility Across Market Conditions: Different indicators might perform better under different market conditions. For example, while moving averages might excel in trending markets, oscillators like RSI might be more useful during sideways or range-bound conditions. A mashup strategy can potentially adapt better to varying market scenarios.
Comprehensive Analysis: With multiple indicators, traders can gauge trend strength, momentum, volatility, and potential market reversals all at once, providing a holistic view of the market.
How do the different indicators in the Supertrend Advance Strategy work together?
Supertrend: This is primarily a trend-following indicator. It provides traders with buy and sell signals based on the volatility of the price. When combined with other indicators, it can filter out noise and give more weight to strong, confirmed trends.
EMA (Exponential Moving Average): EMA gives more weight to recent price data. It can be used to identify the direction and strength of a trend. When the price is above the EMA, it's generally considered bullish, and vice versa.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): An oscillator that measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions. By cross-referencing with other indicators like EMA or MACD, traders can spot potential reversals or confirmations of a trend.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): This indicator identifies changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a stock's price. When the MACD line crosses above the signal line, it can be a bullish sign, and when it crosses below, it can be bearish. Pairing MACD with Supertrend can provide dual confirmation of a trend.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index): Initially developed for commodities, CCI can indicate overbought or oversold conditions. It can be used in conjunction with other indicators to determine entry and exit points.
In essence, the synergy of these indicators provides a balanced, comprehensive approach to trading. Each indicator offers its unique lens into market conditions, and when they align, it can be a powerful indication of a trading opportunity. This combination not only reduces the potential drawbacks of each individual indicator but leverages their strengths, aiming for more consistent and informed trading decisions.
Backtesting and Default Settings
• This indicator has been optimized to be applied for 1 hour-charts. However, the underlying principles of this strategy are supply and demand in the financial markets and the strategy can be applied to all timeframes. Daytraders can use the 1min- or 5min charts, swing-traders can use the daily charts.
• This strategy has been designed to identify the most promising, highest probability entries and trades for each stock or other financial security.
• The combination of the qualifiers results in a highly selective strategy which only considers the most promising swing-trading entries. As a result, you will normally only find a low number of trades for each stock or other financial security per year in case you apply this strategy for the daily charts. Shorter timeframes will result in a higher number of trades / year.
• Consequently, traders need to apply this strategy for a full watchlist rather than just one financial security.
• Default properties: RSI on (length 14, RSI buy level 50, sell level 50), EMA, RSI, MACD on, type of strategy pullback, SL/TP type: ATR (length 10, factor 3), trade direction both, quantity 5, take profit swing hl 5.1, highest / lowest lookback 2, enable ATR trail (ATR length 10, SL ATR multiplier 1.4, TP multiplier 2.1, lookback = 4, trade direction = both).
hamster-bot MRS 2 (simplified version) MRS - Mean Reversion Strategy (Countertrend) (Envelope strategy)
This script does not claim to be unique and does not mislead anyone. Even the unattractive backtest result is attached. The source code is open. The idea has been described many times in various sources. But at the same time, their collection in one place provides unique opportunities.
Published by popular demand and for ease of use. so that users can track the development of the script and can offer their ideas in the comments. Otherwise, you have to communicate in several telegram chats.
Representative of the family of counter-trend strategies. The basis of the strategy is Mean reversion . You can also read about the Envelope strategy .
Mean reversion , or reversion to the mean, is a theory used in finance that suggests that asset price volatility and historical returns eventually will revert to the long-run mean or average level of the entire dataset.
The strategy is very simple. Has very few settings. Good for beginners to get acquainted with algorithmic trading. A simple adjustment will help avoid overfitting. There are many variations of this strategy, but for understanding it is better to start with this implementation.
Principle of operation.
1)
A conventional MA is being built. (fuchsia line). A limit order is placed on this line to close the position.
2)
(green line) A limit order is placed on this line to open a long position
3)
(red line) A limit order is placed on this line to open a short position
Attention!
Please note that a limit order is used. Conclude that the strategy has a limited capacity. And the results obtained on low-liquid instruments will be too high in the tester. On real auctions there will be a different result.
Note for testing the strategy in the spot market:
When testing in the spot market, do not include both long and short at the same time. It is recommended to test only the long mode on the spot. Short mode for more advanced users.
Settings:
Available types of moving averages:
SMA
EMA
TEMA - triple exponential moving average
DEMA - Double Exponential Moving Average
ZLEMA - Zero lag exponential moving average
WMA - weighted moving average
Hma - Hull Moving Average
Thma - Triple Exponential Hull Moving Average
Ehma - Exponential Hull Moving Average
H - MA built based on highs for n candles | ta.highest(len)
L - MA built based on lows for n candles | ta.lowest(len)
DMA - Donchian Moving Average
A Kalman filter can be applied to all MA
The peculiarity of the strategy is a large selection of MA and the possibility of shifting lines. You can set up a reverse trending strategy on the Donchian channel for example.
Use Long - enable/disable opening a Long position
Use Short - enable/disable opening a Short position
Lot Long, % - % allocated from the deposit for opening a Long position. In the spot market, do not use % greater than 100%
Lot Short, % - allocated % of the deposit for opening a Short position
Start date - the beginning of the testing period
End date - the end of the testing period (Example: only August 2020 can be tested)
Mul - multiplier. Used to offset lines. Example:
Mul = 0.99 is shift -1%
Mul = 1.01 is shift +1%
Non-strict recommendations:
1) Test the SPOT market on crypto exchanges. (The countertrend strategy has liquidation risk on futures)
2) Symbols altcoin/bitcoin or altcoin/altcoin. Example: ETH/BTC or DOGE/ETH
3) Timeframe is usually 1 hour
If the script passes moderation, I will supplement it by adding separate settings for closing long and short positions according to their MA
RSI Box Strategy (pseudo- Grid Bot)This is a strategy intended primarily for algorithmic traders. It's a pseudo-grid bot that uses a dynamic, volume-weighted grid that only updates when the RSI meets certain conditions. It's also a breakout strategy, whereas normal grid bots are not (typical grid bots sell when a higher grid is reached, whereas this strategy sells when a lower grid is breached under specific conditions). This strategy also sells 100% of pyramiding orders on close.
In a nutshell, the strategy updates its grid to the volume-weighted highest/lowest values of your given source ("src" in the settings) each time that there is a RSI crossunder/crossover. From this range it produces an evenly-spaced grid of five lines, and uses the current source to determine which grid line is closest to the source. Then, if the source crosses over the line directly above the current line, it enters a buy order. If the source crosses under the line directly below the current line, it enters a sell order.
You can configure shorts, source, RSI length, and overbought/oversold levels in the settings.
For the strategy results below: fees are at 0.1% per trade, with order size 1% of equity and a max pyramiding value of 33. For a greater R/R profile, you can increase the order size, which will increase drawdown but potentially yield better results.
YinYang RSI Volume Trend StrategyThere are many strategies that use RSI or Volume but very few that take advantage of how useful and important the two of them combined are. This strategy uses the Highs and Lows with Volume and RSI weighted calculations on top of them. You may be wondering how much of an impact Volume and RSI can have on the prices; the answer is a lot and we will discuss those with plenty of examples below, but first…
How does this strategy work?
It’s simple really, when the purchase source crosses above the inner low band (red) it creates a Buy or Long. This long has a Trailing Stop Loss band (the outer low band that's also red) that can be adjusted in the Settings. The Stop Loss is based on a % of the inner low band’s price and by default it is 0.1% lower than the inner band’s price. This Stop Loss is not only a stop loss but it can also act as a Purchase Available location.
You can get back into a trade after a stop loss / take profit has been hit when your Reset Purchase Availability After condition has been met. This can either be at Stop Loss, Entry or None.
It is advised to allow it to reset in case the stop loss was a fake out but the call was right. Sometimes it may trigger stop loss multiple times in a row, but you don’t lose much on stop loss and you gain lots when the call is right.
The Take Profit location is the basis line (white). Take Profit occurs when the Exit Source (close, open, high, low or other) crosses the basis line and then on a different bar the Exit Source crosses back over the basis line. For example, if it was a Long and the bar’s Exit Source closed above the basis line, and then 2 bars later its Exit Source closed below the basis line, Take Profit would occur. You can disable Take Profit in Settings, but it is very useful as many times the price will cross the Basis and then correct back rather than making it all the way to the opposing zone.
Longs:
If for instance your Long doesn’t need to Take Profit and instead reaches the top zone, it will close the position when it crosses above the inner top line (green).
Please note you can change the Exit Source too which is what source (close, open, high, low) it uses to end the trades.
The Shorts work the same way as the Long but just opposite, they start when the purchase source crosses under the inner upper band (green).
Shorts:
Shorts take profit when it crosses under the basis line and then crosses back.
Shorts will Stop loss when their outer upper band (green) is crossed with the Exit Source.
Short trades are completed and closed when its Exit Source crosses under the inner low red band.
So, now that you understand how the strategy works, let’s discuss why this strategy works and how it is profitable.
First we will discuss Volume as we deem it plays a much bigger role overall and in our strategy:
As I’m sure many of you know, Volume plays a huge factor in how much something moves, but it also plays a role in the strength of the movement. For instance, let’s look at two scenarios:
Bitcoin’s price goes up $1000 in 1 Day but the Volume was only 10 million
Bitcoin’s price goes up $200 in 1 Day but the Volume was 40 million
If you were to only look at the price, you’d say #1 was more important because the price moved x5 the amount as #2, but once you factor in the volume, you know this is not true. The reason why Volume plays such a huge role in Price movement is because it shows there is a large Limit Order battle going on. It means that both Bears and Bulls believe that price is a good time to Buy and Sell. This creates a strong Support and Resistance price point in this location. If we look at scenario #2, when there is high volume, especially if it is drastically larger than the average volume Bitcoin was displaying recently, what can we decipher from this? Well, the biggest take away is that the Bull’s won the battle, and that likely when that happens we will see bullish movement continuing to happen as most of the Bears Limit Orders have been fulfilled. Whereas with #2, when large price movement happens and Bitcoin goes up $1000 with low volume what can we deduce? The main takeaway is that Bull’s pressured the price up with Market Orders where they purchased the best available price, also what this means is there were very few people who were wanting to sell. This generally dictates that Whale Limit orders for Sells/Shorts are much higher up and theres room for movement, but it also means there is likely a whale that is ready to dump and crash it back down.
You may be wondering, what did this example have to do with YinYang RSI Volume Trend Strategy? Well the reason we’ve discussed this is because we use Volume multiple times to apply multiplications in our calculations to add large weight to the price when there is lots of volume (this is applied both positively and negatively). For instance, if the price drops a little and there is high volume, our strategy will move its bounds MUCH lower than the price actually dropped, and if there was low volume but the price dropped A LOT, our strategy will only move its bounds a little. We believe this reflects higher levels of price accuracy than just price alone based on the examples described above.
Don’t believe us?
Here is with Volume NOT factored in (VWMA = SMA and we remove our Volume Filter calculation):
Which produced -$2880 Profit
Here is with our Volume factored in:
Which produced $553,000 (55.3%)
As you can see, we wen’t from $-2800 profit with volume not factored to $553,000 with volume factored. That's quite a big difference! (Please note previous success does not predict future success we are simply displaying the $ amounts as example).
Now how about RSI and why does it matter in this strategy?
As I’m sure most of you are aware, RSI is one of the leading indicators used in trading. For this reason we figured it would only make sense to incorporate it into our calculations. We fiddled with RSI for quite awhile and sometimes what logically seems to be the right way to use it isn’t. Now, because of this, our RSI calculation is a little odd, but basically what we’re doing is we calculate the RSI, then turn it into a percentage (between 0-1) that can easily be multiplied to the price point we need. The price point we use is the difference between our high purchase zone and our low purchase zone. This allows us to see how much price movement there is between zones. We multiply our zone size with our RSI multiplication and we get the amount we will add +/- to our basis line (white line). This officially creates the NEW high and low purchase zones that we are actually using and displaying in our trades.
If you found that confusing, here are some examples to why it is an important calculation for this strategy:
Before RSI factored in:
Which produced 27.8% Profit
After RSI factored in:
Which produced 553% Profit
As you can see, the RSI makes not only the purchase zones more accurate, but it also greatly increases the profit the strategy is able to make. It also helps ensure an relatively linear profit slope so you know it is reliable with its trades.
This strategy can work on pretty much anything, but you should tweak the values a bit for each pair you are trading it with for best results.
We hope you can find some use out of this simple but effective strategy, if you have any questions, comments or concerns please let us know.
HAPPY TRADING!
Golden Transform The Golden Transform Oscillator contains multiple technical indicators and conditions for making buy and sell decisions. Here's a breakdown of its components and what it's trying to achieve:
Strategy Setup:
The GT is designed to be plotted on the chart without overlaying other indicators.
Rate of Change (ROC) Calculation:
The Rate of Change (ROC) indicator is calculated with a specified period ("Rate of Change Length").
The ROC measures the percentage change in price over the specified period.
Hull Modified TRIX Calculation:
The Hull Modified TRIX indicator is calculated with a specified period ("Hull TRIX Length").
The Hull MA (Moving Average) formula, a modified WMA, is used to calculate a modified TRIX indicator, which is a momentum oscillator.
Hull MA Calculation:
A Hull Moving Average (Hull MA) is calculated as an entry filter.
Fisher Transform Calculation:
The Fisher Transform indicator is calculated to serve as a preemptive exit filter.
It involves mathematical transformations of price data to create an oscillator that can help identify potential reversals. The Fisher Transform is further smoothed using a Hull Moving Average (HMA).
Conditions and Signals:
Long conditions are determined based on crossovers between ROC and TRIX, as well as price relative the the MA. Short conditions are inversed.
Exit Conditions:
Exit conditions are defined for both long and short positions.
For long positions, the strategy exits if ROC crosses under TRIX, or if the smoothed Fisher Transform crosses above a threshold and declines. Once again, short conditions are the inverse.
Visualization and Plotting:
The script uses background colors for entry and shapes for exits to highlight different levels and conditions for the ROC/TRIX correlation.
It plots the Fisher Transform values and a lag trigger on the chart.
Overall, this script is a complex algorithm that combines multiple technical indicators and conditions to generate trading signals and manage positions in the financial markets. It aims to identify potential entry and exit points based on the interplay of the mentioned indicators and conditions.
Dynamic Trendline Break - Strategy [presentTrading]- Introduction and How It Is Different
The Dynamic Trendline Break Strategy is a unique trading algorithm that leverages the power of trendlines and swing detection to identify potential trading opportunities.
Unlike traditional trendline strategies that rely on static trendlines, this strategy dynamically calculates trendlines based on pivot highs and lows.
This dynamic approach allows the strategy to adapt to changing market conditions (especially 24hr markets like Crypto) and potentially identify trading opportunities that static trendlines might miss.

- Strategy, How It Works
The strategy works by first identifying pivot highs and lows using a lookback period defined by the user. These pivot points are then used to calculate the slope of the trendlines. The slope calculation method can be chosen from three options: Average True Range (ATR), Standard Deviation (Stdev), or Linear Regression (Linreg), providing flexibility to the trader.
Once the trendlines are calculated, the strategy identifies potential trading opportunities when the price crosses over the upper trendline (for long trades) or crosses under the lower trendline (for short trades). The strategy also allows the user to define the trade direction (Long, Short, or Both) and the stop loss method (Fixed or SuperTrend).
- Trade Direction
The trade direction parameter allows the user to define the direction of the trades that the strategy will take. If set to "Long", the strategy will only take long trades when the price crosses over the upper trendline. If set to "Short", the strategy will only take short trades when the price crosses under the lower trendline. If set to "Both", the strategy will take both long and short trades.
- Usage
To use this strategy, simply input your desired parameters for the swing detection lookback, slope, slope calculation method, trade direction, stop loss method, and stop loss level. Once these parameters are set, the strategy will automatically calculate the trendlines and identify potential trading opportunities based on the defined parameters.
- Default Settings
The default settings for the strategy are as follows:
Swing Detection Lookback: 30
Slope: 0.618
Slope Calculation Method: ATR
Trade Direction: Both
Stop Loss Method: SuperTrend
Stop Loss Level: 15%
SuperTrend Factor: 3
SuperTrend Lookback: 21
These settings can be adjusted to suit your trading style and risk tolerance. Always remember to backtest any changes to the settings before live trading.
Premium VWAP Trendfollow Strategy [wbburgin]This is a strongly-revised version of my VWAP Trendfollow Strategy, which follows a substantial reworking to address various structural inefficiencies with the script, such as the narrowing of the standard deviation band upon anchor reset. I will continue updating the original script with planned adjustments, this is a different proof-of-concept that builds off of the original script thesis with a different calculation method and execution.
This strategy is not built for any specific asset or timeframe, and has been backtested on crypto and equities from 1 min-1 day. The previous experimental strategy was heavily-correlated with the actual movement of the asset, which added unpalatable risk to the strategy and increased drawdown. This revised form has a more stable backtesting curve, but I want to heavily emphasize that I cannot guarantee that the strategy will be profitable for your circumstances. Backtesting only goes so far and every exchange has a different fee schedule, which can substantially eat into your profits. At the bottom I will explain the parameters behind the strategy results.
**********
The VWAP Trendfollow Strategy begins with a simple premise: to enter long when the price breaks above the upper standard deviation of a VWAP, and to close the position when the price breaks below the lower standard deviation of the VWAP. This is more effective than initiating the same strategy for a VWMA because the VWAP resets its anchor depending on your chosen anchor period, and the act of resetting its anchor also resets its standard deviation value. As a consequence, in sustained uptrends, the standard deviation is pulled upward to meet the price when the anchor resets, instead of requiring the price to fall all the way back down, as in the lower standard deviation band of the VWMA. This essentially acts as the VWAP itself raising the stop loss at each anchor period, which works well for the overall trend-following strategy.
However, this narrowing can still have consequences for a simple breakout strategy; as the price gradually oscillates towards above or below its standard deviation band, it may cross over the other and produce false signals. This oscillation is worrisome especially when fees are taken into account.
Thus, the premium VWAP Trendfollow strategy has a variable width which detects abnormal narrowing of the band, and adjusts it until it is reasonable to close the variability period. Additionally, a filter is added to the open/close signals to soften the frequency of signals without impacting performance significantly.
This script contains an ATR stop loss and an ATR take profit (which is also a difference between it and the original experimental script), with customizable inputs. The strategy results shown below are with initial capital of $1000, qty entry of 10%, and commissions of 0.06%. It works best on 24/7 instruments, like crypto, but I have found it also works with FAANG stocks or other high volatility / high volume assets. The issue with stocks, however, is that the price can jump/plummet because of abnormal events after-hours, which the strategy cannot pick up on until pre-trading begins the next morning. For that reason I suggest it be used on crypto and, because of its low % profitable (but high average winning trade in relation to its average losing trade), be used on an exchange that has minimal fees or volume-based discounts. In the unfortunate case that you cannot find a minimal fee or volume-discounted fee exchange (such as fellow Americans following the liquidity-retreat on Binance.US), I encourage you to test out the higher anchor periods for the higher timeframes, which will reduce the number of trades and increase the average % per trade.
Additionally, this is a long-term strategy used best for accumulation. It is currently long-only; that may change based off of user input.

ATR GOD Strategy by TradeSmart (PineConnector-compatible)This is a highly-customizable trading strategy made by TradeSmart, focusing mainly on ATR-based indicators and filters. The strategy is mainly intended for trading forex , and has been optimized using the Deep Backtest feature on the 2018.01.01 - 2023.06.01 interval on the EUR/USD (FXCM) 15M chart, with a Slippage value of 3, and a Commission set to 0.00004 USD per contract. The strategy is also made compatible with PineConnector , to provide an easy option to automate the strategy using a connection to MetaTrader. See tooltips for details on how to set up the bot, and check out our website for a detailed guide with images on how to automate the strategy.
The strategy was implemented using the following logic:
Entry strategy:
A total of 4 Supertrend values can be used to determine the entry logic. There is option to set up all 4 Supertrend parameters individually, as well as their potential to be used as an entry signal/or a trend filter. Long/Short entry signals will be determined based on the selected potential Supertrend entry signals, and filtered based on them being in an uptrend/downtrend (also available for setup). Please use the provided tooltips for each setup to see every detail.
Exit strategy:
4 different types of Stop Losses are available: ATR-based/Candle Low/High Based/Percentage Based/Pip Based. Additionally, Force exiting can also be applied, where there is option to set up 4 custom sessions, and exits will happen after the session has closed.
Parameters of every indicator used in the strategy can be tuned in the strategy settings as follows:
Plot settings:
Plot Signals: true by default, Show all Long and Short signals on the signal candle
Plot SL/TP lines: false by default, Checking this option will result in the TP and SL lines to be plotted on the chart.

PRICE CHANNEL MEAN REVERSIONThis script is a Fully Automated trading script meant to be used with "Oanda" broker and the plug-ins for algorithmic trading automation.( FOREX ONLY)
This script is meant to capture "MEAN REVERSION " for intraday charts (1hour) preferably and will hold for days / weeks .trading on forex markets.
(The combination of indicators includes a high and low price channel along with a fast moving average)
This script is original in the description of Alan Hulls moving average combined with the high and low closing of price action.
The concept of this mean reversion strategy is to try and capture price exhaustive moves . The moving average is fast and most times remains in the channel. when the moving average overshoots the channel the average price of the instrument is thought to be rising or falling faster then average, indicating a possibility that the instrument may revert (pull back) this strategy aims to capture that pull back.
This strategy uses a higher risk than reward profile to jump in front of market moves (4 risk to 1 reward)
in the likelihood the instrument will revert back (example) 25 pips before it continues 100 pips in the current direction.
This strategy should only be used in markets that you believe are mean reverting at the time of trading otherwise you will be jumping Infront of a possible trend and the price can continue in the trending direction for an unknown specified amount of time.
This script uses a (user defined period) fast moving average ( green/red color) and (user defined period) price channel (White/Blue) chosen in the indicator settings menu.
The default parameters are 55 with a (minimum of 1 and maximum of 10000) for the moving average and 50 with a (minimum of 1 and maximum of 10000) for the price channel , the default parameters = roughly 2 days of price action on the (1 hour) chart.
"The default parameters should be kept unless you fully understand the complete strategy"
the upper band (white line) is the highest close of the specified period and the lower band (blue line) is the lowest close of the same period.
When the fast moving average over shoots the price channel (exits) then crosses back into the price channel (enters) it will trigger a long or short trade.
The long signal is given when the the moving average crosses below the low band then crosses back above the low band . The trade long trade will be entered and the trade will exit if the stop loss or profit targets are hit or if the short signal is given the trade will close then reverse.
The short trade will be entered if the fast moving average crosses above the upper band (white line) then crosses back down through the upper band (white line) The trade short trade will be entered and the trade will exit if the stop loss or profit targets are hit or if the long signal is given the trade will close then reverse.
When the trade is entered a red , a blue and green horizontal dotted line will appear on the chart.
the blue line is the strategy entry price , the red line is the stop loss price , and the green line is the take profit price . the colors will invert if the trade is long or short.
(Setting alerts should be done in the indicator settings menu, and the parameters you chose will determine the stop loss/target and the amount of "units = (position size)" you wish to trade for the (forex only) markets. using "alert() function calls only" is the only alert that should be used with this strategy.
(note : when "alert() function calls only" is set two messages will be sent, one closing any open position in the opposite direction and one placing the new order regardless if you are currently in a trade or not)
Trade targets , stoploss and trade position size are a user defined variables entered in the indicator settings menu. (target pips minimum 0 and a maximum of 1000)(stop pips minimum of 0 and maximum of 1000)
Back test date range is included in the script for back testing different data periods.
the back ground will be colored a transparent navy blue if the period you are looking trading is with in the date range( note: to place live trades the end date will need to be in the future)
this is also adjustable in the settings menu
The avoid spread filter is a user defined time in which the spread is typically higher than average, applying this filter avoids trades in the specified time. When this filter is applied there will be a transparent red back ground color in the specified time.
Back test default setting are equivocal to OANDA:NZDUSD
at the time of this publication placing trades with the "Oanda" broker are as follows , NZD units = 3250 equal 2000 USD position size . "Oanda" current leverage is 33.3 to 1 for this particular pair and commission is paid in spread (1.7) pips = 0.55 USD per trade , Margin required for the trade is 60.50 USD , Position sizing = 6.5% of a 1000 USD account. OANDA:NZDUSD
