Daily Bollinger Band StrategyOverview of the Daily Bollinger Band Strategy
1. Strategy Overview and Features
This strategy is a tool for backtesting a trading method that uses Bollinger Bands. It is *not* a tool for automated trading.
1-1. Main Display Items
The main chart displays the Bollinger Bands and the 200-day moving average.
It also shows the entry and exit points along with the position size (in units of 100 shares).
1-2. Summary of Trading Rules
For long (buy) strategies, the trade enters when the price crosses above the +1σ line of the Bollinger Bands, aiming to ride an upward trend. The position is exited when the price crosses below the middle band.
For short (sell) strategies, the trade enters when the price crosses below the -1σ line of the Bollinger Bands, aiming to ride a downward trend. The position is exited when the price crosses above the middle band.
1-3. Strategic Enhancements
The strategy uses the slope of the 200-day moving average to determine the trend direction and enter trades accordingly. This improves the win rate and payoff ratio.
Additionally, to reduce the probability of ruin, the risk per trade is limited to 1.0% of capital, and position sizing is adjusted using ATR (a volatility indicator).
2. Trading Rules
2-1. Chart Type
Only daily charts are used.
2-2. Indicators Used
(1) Bollinger Bands** (used for entry and exit signals)
- Period: Fixed at 80 days
- Upper and lower bands: Fixed at ±1σ
(2) Moving Average** (used to determine trend direction)
- Period: Fixed at 200 days
- Trend direction is judged based on whether the difference from the previous day is positive (upward) or negative (downward)
2-3. Buy Rules
Setup:
- Price crosses above the +1σ line from below
- Both the middle band and 200-day moving average are upward sloping
Entry:
- Buy at the next day’s market open using a market order
Exit:
- If the price crosses below the middle band, sell at the next day’s open using a market order
2-4. Sell Rules
Setup:
- Price crosses below the -1σ line from above
- Both the middle band and 200-day moving average are downward sloping
Entry:
- Sell at the next day’s market open using a market order
Exit:
- If the price crosses above the middle band, buy back at the next day’s open using a market order
2-5. Risk Management Rules
- Risk per trade: 1.0% of total capital (acceptable loss = capital × 1.0%)
- Position size: Acceptable loss ÷ 2ATR (rounded down to the nearest unit of 100 shares)
2-6. Other Notes
- No brokerage fees
- No pyramiding
- No partial exits
- No reverse positions (no “stop-and-reverse” trades)

When yesterday's price breaks below and closes below the low of the day before yesterday, it indicates a bearish bias.
When yesterday's price tests the high of the day before yesterday but does not break above it, it indicates a bearish bias.
Daily COC Strategy with SHERLOCK WAVESThis indicator implements a unique trading strategy known as the "Daily COC (Candle Over Candle) Strategy" enhanced with "SHERLOCK WAVES" for pattern recognition. It's designed for traders looking to capitalize on specific candlestick formations with a negative risk-reward ratio, with the aim of achieving a high win rate (over 70%) through numerous trading opportunities, despite each trade having a higher risk relative to the reward.
Key Features:
Pattern Recognition: Identifies a setup based on three consecutive candles - a red candle followed by a shooting star, then an entry candle that does not break below the shooting star's low.
Negative Risk/Reward Trade Selection: Focuses on entries where the potential stop loss is greater than the take profit, banking on a high win rate to offset the individual trade's negative risk-reward ratio.
Visual Signals:
Green Label: Marks potential entry points at the high of the candle before the entry.
Green Dot: Indicates a winning trade closure.
Red Dot: Signals a losing trade closure.
Blue Circle: Warns when the current candle is within 2% of breaking above the previous candle's high, suggesting a potential setup is developing.
Green Circle: Plots the take profit level.
Red Circle: Plots the stop loss level.
Dynamic Statistics: A live updating label showing the number of trades, wins, losses, open trades, current account balance, and win percentage.
Customizable Parameters:
Risk % per Trade: Adjust the percentage of your account balance you're willing to risk on each trade.
Initial Account Balance: Set your starting balance for tracking performance.
Start Date for Strategy: Define when the strategy should start calculating from, allowing for backtesting.
Alerts:
An alert condition is set for when a potential trade setup is developing, helping traders prepare for entries.
Usage Tips:
This strategy is predicated on the idea that a high win rate can compensate for the negative risk-reward ratio of individual trades. It might not suit all market conditions or traders' risk profiles.
Use this strategy in conjunction with other analysis methods to validate trade setups.
Note: Always backtest thoroughly before applying to live markets. Consider this tool as part of a broader trading strategy, not a standalone solution. Monitor your win rate and adjust your risk management accordingly to ensure the strategy remains profitable over time.
This description now correctly explains the purpose behind the negative risk-reward ratio in the context of your trading strategy.
Daily Buy/Sell Volumeindicator that The Daily Buy/Sell Volume Indicator is a custom-built tool that helps traders track and visualize the buying and selling volumes throughout a trading day. This indicator separates the total volume into two categories:
1. Buy Volume: Calculated when the closing price is higher than the opening price for a given candle. This represents the volume of bullish (buy) activity for the day.
2. Sell Volume: Calculated when the closing price is lower than the opening price for a given candle. This represents the volume of bearish (sell) activity for the day.
Key Features:
• Buy/Sell Volume Calculation: The indicator tracks the buying and selling volumes based on the relationship between the open and close prices of each candle.
• Daily Reset: The indicator resets at the start of each trading day, providing fresh calculations for the daily buy and sell volumes.
• Visual Representation: The buy volume is shown with a green line, while the sell volume is displayed with a red line, making it easy to identify bullish and bearish activity over the course of the day.
Daily Session DividerThis script draws vertical lines showing the new daily sessions. These will only be displayed when it's on an intraday timeframe (lower than daily timeframe).
Settings:
Line Color: Choose the color you want and change the opacity
Line Width: If you want a thicc line. Defaults to 1 (recommended setting)
Line Style: Choose between solid (default), dashed, or dotted
Daily Close Levels with ATR and Custom OffsetsDescription:

Daily Single Trade [SMRT Algo]The Daily Single Trade Indicator by SMRT Algo is a powerful yet simple tool designed for traders who value precision, discipline, and a focus on high-quality trade setups. With a unique approach, this indicator identifies just one signal daily, making it ideal for traders who prefer a structured and stress-free trading routine.
Please note that this indicator only works for timeframes below 1H.
Key Features:
Market Open & Pre-Market Analysis: The indicator focuses on the market’s opening range and identifies breakout opportunities based on price action during these critical periods.
Customizable Risk-Reward Ratio: Plan your trades with precision by setting your desired RR, ensuring that your take-profit (TP) levels are multiples of your stop-loss (SL). Stop loss is not shown with this indicator.
Price Offset for SL: Add a customizable buffer to your SL and TP levels. This offset accounts for market volatility, reducing the chances of premature stop-outs while maintaining alignment with your trading plan.
Increasing this value will lead to a greater invisible stop loss, which will increase the TP size. The opposite is occurs when decreasing this value (less than 0). If you set it as 2.5 for example for TSLA: price is 340 and SL is 330 for example, SL becomes 327.5. This calculation will then be applied to calculate the TP.
In simple terms, if the offset is positive, SL becomes larger, TP becomes larger as well.
Exit Point Visibility: Display exit points on your chart to better visualize trade targets and stop levels.
Adjustable Market Open Time: Easily modify the market open hour and minute to suit your asset’s trading session. For example, U.S. stock traders can set the market open time to 9:30 AM EST (UTC-5).
By providing a single signal each day, the indicator minimizes overtrading and keeps your focus on the best opportunities.
With predefined SL, TP, and RR settings, the indicator fosters disciplined trading, reducing the influence of emotional decision-making. Whether you’re trading stocks, indices, or forex, the customizable market open time and RR ratio make this indicator versatile and adaptable.
The combination of precise SL and TP calculations with offset pip adjustments helps protect your trades from market noise while maintaining a favorable RR.
Perfect for those who can’t monitor markets all day, the single-signal approach allows you to execute a high-quality trade and move on with your day.
How to Use:
Set the Market Open Time: Adjust the open time to align with your asset’s session. For example, set 9:30 AM EST for U.S. stocks.
Define Your Risk-Reward Ratio: Choose an RR multiple (e.g., 1:2 or 1:3) that aligns with your risk tolerance and trading goals.
Apply Pip Offset: Add a buffer to your SL and TP to account for market volatility and reduce false stops.
The Daily Single Trade Indicator simplifies trading by focusing on one high-probability setup per day. It’s perfect for traders looking to maintain consistency, improve risk management, and reduce the stress of overanalyzing the markets.
How Alerts Work:
Individual Alerts: Set separate notifications for specific actions, such as breakout signals, take-profit levels, or stop-loss activations.
Master Alert: Manage all notifications with one streamlined setting, ensuring you never miss an opportunity while keeping your setup simple and efficient.
Take control of your trading with a strategy built for clarity, precision, and success!
Daily Moving Averages on Intraday ChartsThis moving average script displays the chosen 5 daily moving averages on intraday (minute) charts. It automatically adjusts the intervals to show the proper moving averages.
In a day there are 375 trading minutes from 9:15 AM to 3:30PM in Indian market. In 5 days there are 1875 minutes. For other markets adjust this data accordingly.
If 5DMA is chosen on a five minute chart the moving average will use 375 interval values (1875/5 = 375) of 5minute chart to calculate moving average. Same 5DMA on 25minute chart will use 75 interval values (1875/25 = 75).
On a 1minute chart the 5DMA plot will use 1875 interval values to arrive at the moving average.
Since tradingview only allows 5000 intervals to lookback, if a particular daily moving average on intraday chart needs more than 5000 candle data it won't be shown. E.g 200DMA on 5minute chart needs 15000 candles data to plot a correct 200DMA line. Anything less than that would give incorrect moving average and hence it won't be shown on the chart.
MA crossover for the first two MAs is provided. If you want to use that option, make sure you give the moving averages in the correct order.
You can enhance this script and use it in any way you please as long as you make it opensource on TradingView. Feedback and improvement suggestions are welcome.
Special thanks to @JohnMuchow for his moving averages script for all timeframes.

Daily Chess Puzzles [LuxAlgo]Play Chess Puzzles right on your Chart!
Daily Chess Puzzles brings you a new 1-Move chess puzzle straight to your chart every day.
🔶 USAGE
Submit your answer to see if your solution is correct! For quick access to the settings, Double-Click on the Chess board to open the settings interface.
The current active color (Who's move it is) is represented by the color of the information bar, and the corner board squares.
This game uses long algebraic notation without pieces names for submitting moves.
This method for determining moves is perfect for simplicity and clarity, and is standard for the Universal Chess Interface (UCI).
🔹 How to Notate
Long algebraic notation (without pieces name) is simple to understand. This notation does not use capture symbols or check/checkmate symbols; it uses only the squares involved in the move and any promotion occurring.
{Starting Square}{Ending Square}{Promotion Piece(if needed)}
Locate the starting square and the ending square of the piece being moved, without mentioning the piece itself.
Identify the column letters (a-h) and row numbers (1-8) that align with your desired move.
If a pawn reaches the opposite end of the board the pawn gets promoted, add the letter representing the piece it is promoted to at the end of the move.
Put it all together and you've got your notation!
Piece Notations for Pawn Promotions:
'n' for Knight ('k' is reserved for the King in chess notation)
'b' for Bishop
'r' for Rook
'q' for Queen
Normal Move Example: Moving a piece from e2 to e4 is notated as "e2e4".
Pawn Promotion Example: Promoting a pawn to a queen is notated as "e7e8q".
🔶 DETAILS
Miss a day? Yesterday's puzzle can be re-played, check the box for 'View Yesterday's Puzzle' in the settings.
This indicator makes use of Tooltips! . Hover over a square to see that square's notation.
This script makes use of 5 libraries, each storing 2 years worth of daily chess puzzles amounting to 10 years of unique daily chess puzzles.
"timenow" is used to determine which day it is, so even on a closed ticker or weekend or holiday a new chess puzzle will be displayed.
Users have the option to choose from 5 different board themes.
Daily Spot BTC ETF flowsIndicator for use on the daily timeframe to show combined capital flows into 8 of the largest spot bitcoin ETFs to allow the user to track potential buy and selling pressure on spot BTC.
The included ETFs are:
GBTC
ARKB
FBTC
HODL
IBIT
EZBC
BTCO
BITB
Net daily volume is derived from lower timeframe data (5 minute chart by default) for each ETF and multiplied by the average price for the period (defined by the mean of the high, low + close values). This gives the net capital inflow or outflow for each ETF, every period. The individual daily values are added together to give a total capital flow per day and plotted as columns. The cumulative sum of all previous periods is also calculated each period/day and plotted as a line chart.
This is the only indicator currently collating this capital flow data together and presents it as an easy to understand chart to help the user gauge market conditions. By using low time frame bars to calculate the up and down volumes, accuracy is improved.
Daily Network Value to Transactions Signal (NVTS)
Quote of GlassNode ...
The NVT Signal (NVTS) is a modified version of the original NVT Ratio.
It uses a 90 day moving average of the daily transaction volume in the denominator instead of the raw daily transaction volume.
This moving average improves the ratio to better function as a leading indicator.
The Network Value to Transactions (NVT) Ratio is calculated by dividing the market cap by the transferred on-chain volume measured in USD.
GlassNode says the NVT Ratio was created by Willy Woo.
I have peaked into Glassnode and took their idea.
I also added a few more Moving Averages to select from, and the length can also be changed.
This script does not depend on Glassnode alone, instead I pulls data of several services...
CoinMarketCap
CoinMetrics
GlassNode
IntoTheBlock
Therefor we have more Tokens to select from.
I have also blocked some faulty data of each service.
If you get a study error of any kind then there is no data available,
or you on a wrong timeframe.
Best to use this script in a daily chart.
And keep in mind it pulls data of yesterday.
Therefor the plot is offset by 1 to the left.
The script will check each service if the data for the chart is available.
Market Cap is taken in the following order ...

Daily Gaps & Trapped PositionsThis script builds substantially upon the default Gaps script provided by Tradingview. Functionality was added to allow users to decide what price from the previous session is used to determine a daily gap, added support for showing gaps across all timeframes up to the daily time frame, and also allow gaps to be shown even with ETH enabled on the chart. This script provides support across normal securities, futures, and also crypto.
Users can decide between the following selections to determine if a daily gap has formed:
- Previous Session Close
- Previous Session High/Low
- Last RTH Candle High/Low
The other larger piece that was added is something called trapped positions or what some folks familiar with Market Profile would call "single prints". They could also be considered FVGs but they are a specific subset of FVGs as these must from above or below the current session's high/low.
Single prints form above or below a current session's high/low and can be considered an area where price has moved too fast in that area and price will most likely return to these areas at a later point in time. In some teachings, these are also looked at as "trapped shorts" (lighter blue box color) or "trapped supply" (yellow orange box color) which creates an area where there will be potential support (trapped shorts) or resistance (trapped supply) when this area is revisited in the future. Adding these to your chart will simply provide additional areas of interest where you may see buying or selling.
Both gaps and trapped positions have the following options:
- Show only active gaps/trapped positions. Selecting this will only show areas where price has not completely traded through the box.
- Close gaps/trapped positions partially. If this is selected, it will reduce the box size as price is traded through the area. If it is not selected, the box will only disappear once price has traded through the entire box completely.
There are some additional settings that allow you to tailor how many boxes show up on the chart. These settings are as follows:
- Max number of boxes. This setting will only plot up to this number of gaps/trapped positions.
- Minimum Deviation. This will prevent gaps/trapped positions from showing if they are too small relative to average across that last 14 periods.
- Limit Max Box Trail Length (bars). If checkbox is selected, the box will stop being extended after X number of bars given in this input.
Daily Opening GAPPlots the daily opening gap as a box. As price moves into the box the size of the box is reduced until the gap is closed and the box no longer extends forward.
There are options to include middle lines for the center of the gap, as well as quartile lines.
While there are plenty of opening gap scripts out there none that I found tracked the closing of the gap over time.
Daily Reset CWEMA/CWTEMAThis Pine Script code defines an indicator called "Daily Reset CWEMA" that plots a custom weighted moving average on a chart. The indicator takes three inputs: a source series (usually the close price of a security), a length parameter that specifies the number of periods over which the moving average is calculated, and a style parameter that specifies the type of moving average to use (either a custom weighted exponential moving average (CWEMA) or a custom weighted triple exponential moving average (CWTEMA)).
The code first checks the current time frame and adjusts the length parameter accordingly. If the time frame is daily, weekly, or monthly, the length parameter is used as-is. Otherwise, the length is set to the number of bars since the last day change, unless this value is less than the length parameter, in which case the length is set to the number of bars since the last day change.
The ema(), tema(), wma(), cwema(), and cwtema() functions are then defined. The ema() function calculates the exponential moving average of the source data using the number of bars since the last day change as the length. The tema() function calculates the triple exponential moving average of the source data using the number of bars since the last day change as the length. The wma() function calculates the weighted moving average of the source data using the given weights and the number of bars since the last day change as the length. The cwema() and cwtema() functions are similar to the wma() function, but use the ema() and tema() functions to calculate the moving average values instead of the source data directly.
Finally, the ma() function is defined, which takes the source data, length, and style as inputs and calls the appropriate moving average function based on the style parameter. The result of this function is then plotted on the chart.
