Elevated Leverage index System - ELiSELEVATED LEVERAGE index SYSTEM (ELiS) tries to solve the problem of adjusting meaningful leverage in futures and margin trading.
The biggest problem for traders is adjusting the leverage level manually.
Concerning about the volatilities it's very hard to set a meaningful leverage level.
ELiS includes 4 different volatility component which are:
1- nATR: Normalized Average True Range which is actually ATR/price to stabilize ATR's value differences when price changes are high on long term periods.
2- Standard Deviation
3- Kairi based nATR
4- Bollinger %B
which are scaled from 0 to 100 and takes different averages with different combinations & ratios and combines them as an index.
This index calculates an average volatility to set the true leverage level when trading futures especially in Crypto and FX markets.
There are 5 risk levels of "GEARS" like on automobiles to set the max leverage for risk management.
Gear 1 - CONSERVATIVE: max leverage level can be 20 for swing traders and beginners
Gear 2 - STANDARD: max leverage level can be 25 (default) for day traders
Gear 3 - AVERAGE: max leverage level can be 33 for day traders
Gear 4 - RISKY: max leverage level can be 50 for scalpers
Gear 5 - AGRESSIVE: max leverage level can be 100 for advanced scalpers
default length for ATR, Standard Deviation and %B are all 50
Simply:
When markets aren't volatile: ELiS indicateshigher leverage values to maximize profits.
When markets are volatile enough: ELiS indicates lower values to reduce risk level.
hope you all enjoy ELiS on profitable trades.

Swing Dream - PAINT BARS | MA | EMA | DMA | VWAP | TABLE | ADR %- Swing Dream -
Script created for breakout-swing traders, in the style of QullaMaggie * , Dan Zanger, Oliver Kell, and Stockbee.
The following indicators are used by most successful breakout-swing traders such as mentioned above.
(As published) it contains:
Painted Bars, also known as inside/outside candles. Used for candle analysis and to determine breakout pivots & levels. For instance; use it in different timeframes and seek formations (ex, 3-1-2). For further inspiration, study Rob Smith's The Strat .
MA, Simple Moving Averages (Basic levels = 10,20,50,200). Use this indicator to define resistance/support areas as well as the overall long/swing-term trend. In breakout strategies such as EP, Flags, etc this can be used for trailing stops; an example, post-breakout, let the price ride the 20ma before exiting your position.
EMA, Exponential Moving Averages with periods inspired by Qullamaggie (10,20,65). Use this on shorter timeframes (ex, 1h) and for the same principles as MAs.
VWAP, Volume-Weighted Average Price. As for the previous, utilize this as a level indicator to find areas of resistance/support. Good for swing-trading as it implies whenever holders are profitable or not.
DMA, Displaced Moving Average (Horizontal). Personally, I use this a lot. Works very well for trailing stops (post breakout) and "bounce" areas. Choose your own offset and period.
ADR%, Average Daily Range Percentage. Displayed in the table and used to define a symbol's volatility. A very good tool for Qullamaggie-style trading. Personally, I try to find setups with over 6% ADR. Basic definition; low ADR% = Increased chance of a symbol to move slower and in smaller ranges. A higher value equals the opposite.
Table. A table with basic symbol-related information. Could save you plenty of time whenever you scan or search for new swing setups. Looking to add more features here.
Why should you use this script? Well, instead of having tens of different indicators, use this script and combine everything together with EP, Flag, or breakout principles. Suited for every plan, and more efficient in my opinion.
View settings to turn on/off different indicators.
* If you're looking for an introduction and further explanation of how Qullamaggie uses mentioned indicators, I could recommend checking out his website, stream, or participation in "Chat With Traders".

The ideas is to dollar cost average whenever the band is green and pause investing when the band is red.
This gives you two things:

H/L Price Band with Signal Line (PBS)This indicator centers a moving average around the hl2 of the price. This is calculated as the difference of two moving averages. The upper band is a 9 period exponential moving average, the lower band is a 7 period moving average and the center line is the average between the two. The "Fast Line" is our signal line in this oscillator. When the price is hovering around the center of the band this indicates that a trend is pausing or reversing. When the fast line exits the band this could be a buy or sell signal. It could also indicate a very strong trend in that direction. To get the optimal entry and exit you might want to wait for the price to return to the center line. In addition to the basic functionality of this indicator I have added some bonus features. You can enable the "Slow Line" or the "Long Line" to enhance your signals. When the fast line is above the slow/long line you are in an up trend and inversely when the fast line is below the slow/long line you are in a down trend. The crossing of these lines can indicate a reversal. I have also included a "J" style amplification line. This works by enhancing the difference between the Fast and Slow/Long line to make it more visually apparent. You can also configure the "J" line to be calculated between either the slow or long line. Finally I have added the feature to amplify the band width by the standard deviation. This is set to 1 by default but you can also get a more responsive signal by setting this to 0.
This indicator works in most markets. There is a tool tip for every aspect of this indicator explaining how everything works. I hope you are very profitable with this one!

Volume Based Ichimoku CloudIntroduction
This release focuses primarily on a volume-based Donchian. For some time I was looking for a volume-based Donchian, not finding anything that satisfied me I tried to apply one, and then I applied it to Ichimoku.
I found advantages especially in the lateralization phase, where the integration with the volume filters some false signals.
I have added some features:
- Check the conditions of buy/sell of classic Ichimoku
- Verified reverse buy/sell condition
- Alerts
- Entrance package
- possibility to choose the type of Donchian to use (classic, volume-based)
Settings
There are the classic parameters of Ichimoku, for scalping, I use setting like(6-17-34-17 or 5-14-28-14), the new parameters are:
Donchian Type : Classic / Volume Based
Show Condition : it shows green/red square on the bottom when all the conditions of Ichimoku are satisfied, without the checkmark the inputs or the alarms will not work for this type of signal
Show Reversal : it shows yellow/purple triangle on the bottom when all during short/long state condition of Ichimoku Tenkan cross the Kijun, without the checkmark the inputs or the alarms will not work for this type of signal
Trades Framework
Show Trade Lines : show the lines for Entry Point, TP1, TP2, SL
Per n Bars : For how many bars the sending lines will be drawn
Enter Gap : It's the gap, in percentage, from the last candle low/high. For example, the entry point will be set 0.1% higher than the last high of the candle, in a long situation, or 0.1% lower than the last low of the candle in a short situation.
Take Profit 1 : It's the gap, in percentage, from the entry point. For example, the first take profit will be set 0.5% higher/lower than the entry point.
Take Profit 2 : It's the gap, in percentage, from the entry point. For example, the second take profit will be set 0.5% higher/lower than the entry point.
Stop Loss : It's the gap, in percentage, from the entry point. For example, the stop loss will be set 0.5% higher/lower than the entry point.
How to use
The use will be like that for the classic Ichimoku, the combination with a volatility indicator or the volume analysis will certainly help to reduce false signals and therefore to select only the most profitable signals.
Remember that every statistical indicator is just a tool, it needs to be understood to be used at its best, otherwise, it is just a colored line in a colored graph.
Chop Shop Indicator for Options TradersAs always, this is not financial advice and use at your own risk. Trading is risky and can cost you significant sums of money if you are not careful. Make sure you always have a proper entry and exit plan that includes defining your risk before you enter a trade.
This is for all of you options traders out there who choose to write options and collect premium. Since we seem to be a neglected bunch when it comes to indicators, I figured I would write a script that helps identify when underlyings are in a range and a good time to sell some premium when we are waiting for the next directional setup. This is the choppiness index modified to include a 21-period exponential moving average as a trigger, which I am calling the Chop Shop. The choppiness index , at its most basic, takes a log-scaled version of the summed Average True Range (ATR --- a volatility measurement) and converts it into an oscillator. The higher the oscillator value, the higher level of "chop" the stock is experiencing. This is often referred to as the stock is trading in a range. Most traders are advised to stay out of range trading because it is difficult. However, for an options trader this is an opportune time to collect some premium using bracketed short strike trades such as strangles, straddles, iron condors, or iron butterflies that are profitable when the stock stays rangebound and realizes a drop in volatility .
The indicator is extremely basic. You should look to collect premium and write these types of bracketed trades when Chop Shop crosses over its 21-period EMA . You should look to avoid writing bracketed trades when the Chop Shop trades below its 21-period EMA as this is when a stock is seeing a strong directional movement and can be considered trending. These are usually times when you want to get out of the way of the runaway train and make sure you are on the correct side of the trade or you can quickly get smoked. Use a combination of other indicators to help assist you define the most likely continued direction of the trend and you can then write directional premium trades such as credit spreads, directional Iron Condors, and butterflies to capture this and avoid stepping in front of that moving train.
Bjorgum Key Levels
Key Levels Aims to capture 3 of the most significant points in price action
Breakouts
False Breakouts (Traps)
Back Checks
These 3 points alone, if properly identified, can be some of the most significant points of movement in the price history of an asset and bring significant gains to traders, if capitalized on. Here are a few examples of these setups
Breakouts
Breakouts can bring significant rallies as the market swings one sided after key levels are breached. This entry type can bring large trending runs to follow. Momentum is on your side, but the trade off is a higher entry.
False Breakouts
Also known as a bull trap or a bear trap, false breaks can lead to swift and significant reversals and potential for a large and sudden move to the opposite side. When a key level breakout fails to hold, parties entering to capitalize on the "epic breakout" can get left holding the bag forcing them to exit at a loss, which can double the force of pressure. Traps can bring swift gains from good entry prices. However, price is still in a larger trend against you so momentum is weak, so price action is susceptible to roll over.
Backchecks
Back checks are pull backs in trend that find middle ground to the 2 areas already described. Both momentum and entry price are decent, but risk is defined as a key level has flipped offering entry with stops below demand, or above supply.
Combining these 3 methods helps to diversify risk, understand trend development, and bring steady gains. This script helps to identify these points to traders with analysis of key levels, price structure, and trend direction, while providing visual signals and alerts for when they occur.

Sideways Strategy DMI + Bollinger Bands (by Coinrule)Markets don’t always trade in a clear direction. At a closer look, most of the time, they move sideways. Relying on trend-following strategies all the time can thus lead to repeated false signals in such conditions.
However, before you can safely trade sideways, you have to identify the most suitable market conditions.
The main features of such strategies are:
Short-term trades, with quick entries and quick exits
Slightly contrarian and mean-reversionary
Require some indicator that tells you it’s a sideways market
This Sideways DMI + Bollinger Bands strategy incorporates such features to bring you a profitable alternative when the regular trend-following systems stop working.
ENTRY
1. The trading system requires confirmation for a sideways market from the Directional Movement Index (DMI) before you can start opening any trades. For this purpose, the strategy uses the absolute difference between positive and negative DMI, which must be lower than 20.
2. To pick the right moment to buy, the strategy looks at the Bollinger Bands (BB). It enters the trade when the price crosses over the lower BB.
EXIT
The strategy then exits when the move has been exhausted. Generally, in sideways markets, the price should revert lower. The position is closed when the price crosses back down below the upper BB.
The best time frame for this strategy based on our backtest is the 1-hr. Shorter timeframes can also work well on certain coins that are more volatile and trade sideways more often. However, as expected, these exhibit larger volatility in their returns. In general, this approach suits medium timeframes. A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange.
You can execute this strategy on your favourite exchange at coinrule.com.
BollingerBands Strat + pending order alerts via TradingConnectorSoftware part of algotrading is simpler than you think. TradingView is a great place to do this actually. To present it, I'm publishing each of the default strategies you can find in Pinescript editor's "built-in" list with slight modification - I'm only adding 2 lines of code, which will trigger alerts, ready to be forwarded to your broker via TradingConnector and instantly executed there. Alerts added in this script: 14, 17, 20 and 23.
SCRIPT INCLUDES PENDING ORDERS AND ALERTS! Alert will be sent to MetaTrader when order is triggered, but not yet filled. That means if market conditions change and order does not get filled, it needs to be cancelled as well, and there are alerts for that in the script as well.
How it works:
1. TradingView alert fires.
2. TradingConnector catches it and forwards to MetaTrader4/5 you got from your broker.
3. Trade gets executed inside MetaTrader within 1 second of fired alert.
When configuring alert, make sure to select "alert() function calls only" in CreateAlert popup. One alert per ticker is required.
Adding stop-loss, take-profit, trailing-stop, break-even or executing pending orders is also possible. These topics have been covered in other example posts.
This routing works for Forex, indices, stocks, crypto - anything your broker offers via their MetaTrader4 or 5.
Disclaimer: This concept is presented for educational purposes only. Profitable results of trading this strategy are not guaranteed even if the backtest suggests so. By no means this post can be considered a trading advice. You trade at your own risk.

[CP]Pivot Boss Floor Pivots with ATR Dilation and Dynamic LevelsINTRODUCTION:
Compared to all the Pivot Indicators available on Trading View Public Library, this Floor Pivots Indicator differentiates itself in two major original ways:
Dilates the Pivot Support/Resistance Levels into Support/Resistance Bands based on volatility
Displays the S/R Levels Dynamically , that is, only those levels will be shown that are close enough to the price resulting in much cleaner looking charts.
There were a few features whose logic I had figured out, but I could not implement them due Pine Script’s Limitation (they should really work on increasing Pine Script’s capacity instead of adding more and more features to the language in order to make it look ‘better’):
Showing multiple timeframe pivots at the same time (not possible due to Pine Script’s limitation on the ‘Max Number of Outputs’ )
Automatic Detection of highly profitable Double Hot Pivot Zones (DPZ), also due to the ‘Max Number of Outputs’ limit
GENERAL USER INPUTS:
Most of the settings are self-explanatory, however, a few of them need some explanation:
Show Floor Pivots Dynamically – This will turn ON the dynamic pivot levels, please note that this function will work ONLY IN INTRADAY timeframes.
Dynamic Pivot ATR Period – Period over which the ATR value is calculated to show the pivots dynamically.
ATR Threshold for Dynamic Floor Pivots – Simply put, the indicator will start displaying Pivot Levels if they fall within the 2*ATR distance (default value) of the price. You can increase this number if the volatility increases and vice-versa.
Use ATR to Dilate Intraday Pivot Levels – This will turn ON Floor Pivot Dilation, turning pivot ‘lines’ into ‘bands’ .
ATR Dilation Factor – This number decides the width of the Pivot bands. Larger this number, thicker the bands. Typically, high volatility stocks will require a higher number.
ATR Period – Same as Dynamic Pivot ATR Period, but for Pivot Level Dilation.
INDICATOR USAGE EXAMPLES:
This indicator works great in conjunction with my Pivot Boss Candlestick Scanner indicator.
There are a lot of optimizations I have done in the code, although it looks trivial at first glance, but it's fairly complex.
Feel free to use it and modify it as you wish.
Here are a few examples where the indicator has shown great entries and exits, with the default settings:
NIFTY 5m Chart
Reliance 5m Chart
Tesla 5m Chart
Bitcoin-USDT 15m Chart
FINAL WORDS:
Please understand that I have Cherry Picked the examples to showcase the capability of the indicator and its usage.
DO NOT conflate the accuracy of examples with the accuracy of this indicator.
Once you start using floor pivots, you will realize that a lot of days simply don’t give any high probability setups and you will simply sit out of the market and do nothing (which is a good thing).
If you really want to learn how to use Pivots, read the book ’Secrets of a Pivot Boss’ . This book can change your life.
Scalping Trading System bot Crypto and StocksThis is a trend trading strategy scalping bot that can work with any type of market. However I concluded my tests so far with Crypto, Stocks and Forex, and with optimizations always could be found some profitable settings.
Indicators
SImple Moving Average
Exponential Moving Average
Keltner Channels
MACD Histogram
Stochastics
Rules for entry
long= Close of the candle bigger than both moving averages and close of the candle is between the top and bot levels from Keltner. At the same time the macd histogram is negative and stochastic is below 50.
short= Close of the candle smaller than both moving averages and close of the candle is between the top and bot levels from Keltner. At the same time the macd histogram is positive and stochastic is above 50.
Rules for exit
We exit when we meet an opposite reverse order.
This strategy has no risk management inside, so use it with caution !
Forex Fractal EMA ScalperThis is a forex scalper designed for very short timeframes 1-5 min max.
At the same time due to the short timeframe, is recommend to re optimize it weekly .
Its components are
Fractals
Triple EMA with different lengths
Rules for entry:
For long : we have an up fractal and all 3 ema are in ascending order
For short: we have a down fractal and all 3 ema are in descending order.
Rules for exit
We exit when we either get a reverse order or when we hit the take profit or stop loss calculated in fixed pips.
Volatility Stop Strategy (by Coinrule)Traders often use the volatility stop to protect trades dynamically, adjusting the stop price gradually based on the asset's volatility.
Just like the volatility stop is a great way to capture trend reversals on the downside, the opposite applies as well. Therefore, another useful application of the volatility stop is to add it to a trading system to signal potential trend reversals to catch a good buy opportunity.
ENTRY
- When the price crosses above the Volatility Stop
EXIT
- When the price crosses below the Volatility Stop
For this strategy, the Volatility stop's multiplier is set to 3 to allow more flexibility to the trade. The strategy is designed for medium-term trades.
Based on the backtest result from a sample of crypto trading pairs, the most profitable time frame is the 2-hr.
The strategy works well with both crypto-to-crypto and crypto-to-fiat pairs. To make results more realistic, a trading fee of 0.1% is added to the script. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance.

Bollinger Bands And Aroon Scalping (by Coinrule)Many technical indicators can be profitable in certain market conditions while failing in others. No indicator is perfect alone.
All the best trading strategies involve multiple indicators and leverage the benefit of each of them. The following is an optimised strategy based on Bollinger Bands and the Aroon indicator.
The Bollinger Bands are among the most famous and widely used indicators. They can suggest when an asset is oversold or overbought in the short term, thus provide the best time for buying and selling it.
A strategy buying dips can work well during times of uptrend. Downtrends will result in a drawdown for the P&L of the strategy. The suggested approach minimises the drawdowns, ensuring that the system trades only when it's more likely to close the trade in profit.
The Setup
ENTRY
The price crosses below the basis line of the Bollinger Band indicator
The Aroon Indicator is above 90
EXIT
The price crosses below the upper Bollinger Band
The Aroon Indicator drops below 70
The Aroon Indicator plays a key role in this strategy. It acts as a confirmation that the asset is currently in an uptrend. On the other hand, it acts as a stop if market conditions deteriorate. The strategy uses an Aroon Indicator set to 288 periods to provide a longer-term view on market conditions, not being heavily dependent on short-term volatility.
The best time frame for this strategy based on our backtest is the 4-hr . The 1-hr can work well with three times more trades, on average. As trades increase, the profitability decreases. Yet again, this is the confirmation that trading more does not mean gaining more.
To make the results more realistic, the strategy assumes each order to trade 30% of the available capital. A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange.
EMA pullback strategyA solid EMA pullback strategy for cryptos 15 min chart that uses EMA crossing as signal and pullback as stop loss.
EMA1: shortest period for finding crossing (I find period = 33 profitable for BTCUSD, you can adjust it for other cryptos)
EMA2: 5x period of EMA1, for filtering out some trend reversals
EMA3: 11x period of EMA1, for determining trend direction
Rules are:
Long:
close price > EMA3
EMA1 > EMA3
close price pullbacks below EMA1 and then crosses up EMA1, enter at the first close price above EMA1
lowest pullback close price < EMA2 at the cross up
Short:
close price < EMA3
EMA1 < EMA3
close price pullbacks above EMA1 and then crosses down EMA1, enter at the first close price below EMA1
highest pullback close price > EMA2 at the cross down
Stop-loss at lowest/highest pullback price for long/short
Take profit = 2x stop-loss
Risk management: risk range can be set in the inspector. If the risk is lower than the range, the trade is not taken. if the risk is higher than the range, the position size is adjusted to keep the risk within range.
Gap RiderThis Indicator allows you to make statistics on the performance of any underlying on the days in which an opening gap occurs.
Specifically, the indicator was designed for "0 dte" options trades. In fact, it is possible to find parameters that give a good statistical advantage by opening a spread in the direction of the gap, creating a trade that has a risk-return ratio of 1: 1.
The indicator shows flags on the graph (green in case of gap up, red in case of gap down) and colored boxes (green in case the stock closed in the direction of the gap, red in case the stock closed in the opposite direction to the gap, yellow in the event that the stock closed at a distance that did not allow the spread in options to close in maximum loss or maximum profit, and therefore in breakeven)
The statistics panel, on the other hand, contains all the information necessary to search for parameters that give the trader a good statistical advantage.
In the settings you can filter the days of the week, only gap up or only gap down, ATR thresholds (volatility), points or minimum percentage for which a gap is taken into account, measure of the breakeven (which for options traders should represent the half the width of the spread to open), large gaps filter that takes into consideration only gaps that open out of range compared to the previous session. The Lookback parameter of course is used to set how many bars to take into account for the statistics.
Parameters and recommended strategy:
TODAY 31/08/2021 - Lookback 500 bars (2 years)
UNDERLYING: SPX
FILTERS: only Monday and Wednesday, only gap up, only gap> 0.01%
STRATEGY: exactly at opening, cover an ATM spread in the direction of the gap (example: gap up, I open a long call spread) that has the opening price as a break even, with a risk-return ratio of 1: 1 and leave it open until closing session, or set take profit at 90-95%. It is advisable to take into consideration the SPX statistics but to operate on the ES future so as to be able to open the spread a couple of minutes before the opening of the cash session and prevent the trade from "running away" due to too sudden movements of the opening. .
RESULTS:
124 Trade
70% profitable trades
30% losing trades
Max drawdown 3 trades
So assuming a spread on ES 10 points wide, each trade would gain or lose $ 250, applying the described strategy we would have in two years, investing only $ 250, a profit of $ 12500, with a max drawdown of $ 750. We would therefore have a profit of 5000%, or rather 2500% per year on the invested capital, with a drawdown of a much lower proportion of the profit ($ 750 compared to $ 6250 of annual profit).
The strategy is infinitely scalable by increasing the options contracts used and the impact of the commissions is almost zero.
MONEY MANAGEMENT: Example on a 50K account, with a spread that earns or loses $ 500, in two years it earns $ 25,000, therefore about 12500 per year, with a max drawdown of $ 1500, therefore 25% per year on the ENTIRE ACCOUNT with a maximum drawdown of 3%.
Note: the test was performed without a break even parameter, so the actual result will be more moderate, but of the same explosive nature.
** BUG STILL LOOKING FOR SOLUTION **
only in case the filters are set to take into account ONLY the gap down, the drawdown count in the statistics panel shows an incorrect result "
[UTILS] Unit Testing FrameworkTL;DR
This script doesn't provide any buy/sell signals.
This script won't make you profitable implicitly.
This script is intended for utility function testing, library testing, custom assertions.
It is free and open-source.
Introduction
About the idea: is not exclusive, programmers tend to use this method a lot and for a long time.
The point is to ensure that parts of a software, "units" (i.e modules, functions, procedures, class methods etc), work as they should, meet they design and behave as intended. That's why we use the term "Unit testing".
In PineScript we don't have a lot of entities mentioned above yet. What we have are functions. For example, a function that sums numbers should return a number, a particular sum. Or a professor wrote a function that calculates something or whatever. He and you want to be sure that the function works as expected and further code changes (refactoring) won't break its behaviour. What the professor needs to do is to write unit tests for his function/library of functions. And what you need to do is to check if the professor wrote tests or not.
No tests = No code
- Total test-driven development
Ok, it is not so serious, but very important in software development. And I created a tool for that.
I tried to follow the APIs of testing tools/libs/frameworks I worked or work with: Jasmine (Javascript), Mocha/Chai (Javascript), Jest (Javascript), RSpec (Ruby), unittest (Python), pytest (Python) and others. Got something workable but it would be much easier to implement (and it would look much better) if PineScript had a higher-order functions feature.
API
_describe(suiteName: string)
A function to declare a test suite. Each suite with tests may have 2 statuses:
✔️ Passed
❌ Failed
A suite is considered to be failed if at least one of the specs in it has failed.
_it(specName: string, actual: any, expected: any)
A function to run a test. Each test may have 3 statuses:
✔️ Passed
❌ Failed
⛔ Skipped
Some examples:
_it("is a falsey value", 1 != 2, true)
_it("is not a number", na(something), true)
_it("should sum two integers", _sum(1, 2), 1)
_it("arrays are equal", _isEqual(array.from(1, 2), array.from(1, 2)), true)
Remember that both the 'actual' and 'expected' arguments must be of the same type.
And a group of _it() functions must be preceded by a _describe() declaration (see in the code).
_test(specName: string, actual: any, expected: any)
An alias for _it . Does the same thing.
_xit(specName: string, actual: any, expected: any)
A function to skip a particular test for a while. Doesn't make any comparisons, but the test will appear in the results as skipped.
This feature is unstable and may be removed in the future releases.
_xtest(specName: string, actual: any, expected: any)
An alias for _xit . Does the same thing.
_isEqual(id_1: array, id_2: array)
A function to compare two arrays for equality. Both arrays must be of the same type.
This function doesn't take into account the order of elements in each array. So arrays like (1, 2, 3) and (3, 2, 1) will be equal.
_isStrictEqual(id_1: array, id_2: array)
A function to compare two arrays for equality. Both arrays must be of the same type.
This function is a stricter version of _isEqual because it takes into account the order of elements in each array. So arrays like (1, 2, 3) and (3, 2, 1) won't be equal.
Usage
To use this script to test your library you need to do the following steps:
1) Copy all the code you see between line #5 and #282 (Unit Testing Framework Core)
2) Place the copied code at the very beginning of your script (but below study())
3) Start to write suites and tests where your code ends. That's it.
NOTE
The current version is 0.0.1 which means that a lot of things may be changed on the way to 1.0.0 - the first stable version.

A strategy in a box to get you started today
With 3rd party API providers growing in popularity, many are turning to automating their strategies on their favorite assets. With so many options and layers of customization possible, TradingView offers a place no better for young or even experienced coders to build a platform from to meet these needs. 3Commas has offered easy access with straight forward TradingView compatibility. Before long many have their brokers hooked up and are ready to send their alerts (or perhaps they have been trying with mixed success for some time now) only they realize there might just be a little bit more to building a strategy that they are comfortable letting out of their sight to trade their money while they eat, sleep, etc. Many may have ideas for entry criteria they are excited to try, but further questions arise... "What about risk mitigation?" "How can I set stop or limit orders?" "Is there not some basic shell of a strategy that has laid some of this out for me to get me going?"
Well now there is just that. This strategy is meant for those that have begun to delve into the world of algorithmic trading providing a template that offers risk defined positions complete with stops, limit orders, and even trailing stops should one so choose to employ any of these criteria. It provides a framework that is easily manipulated (with some basic working knowledge of pine coding) to encompass ones own ideas and entry criteria, while also providing an already functioning strategy.
The default settings have a basic 1:1 risk to reward ratio, which sets a limit and a stop equal distance from the entry. The entry is a simple MA cross (up for long, down for short). There a variety of MA's to choose from and the user can define the lengths of the averages. The ratio can be adjusted from the menu along with a volatility based adder (ATR) that helps to distance a stop from support or resistance. These values are calculated off the swing low/high of the user defined lookback period. Risk is calculated from position entry to stop, and projected upwards to the limit as a function of the desired risk to reward ratio. Of note: the default settings include 0.05% commissions. Competitive commissions of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges are .1% round trip (one buy and one sell) for market orders. There is also some slippage to allow time for alerts to be sent and orders to fill giving the back test results a more accurate representation of real time conditions. Its recommended to research the going rates for your exchange and set them to default for the strategy you use or build.
To get started a user would:
1) Make a copy of the code and paste in their bot keys in the area provided under the "3Comma Keys" section
- eg. Long bot "start deal" copied from 3commas in to define "Long" etc. (code is commented)
2) Place alert on desired asset with desired settings ensuring to select "Order fills and alert() function calls"
3) Paste webhook into the webhook box and select webhook URL alerts (3rd party provided webhook)
3) Delete contents of alert message box and replace with {{strategy.order.alert_message}} and nothing else
- the codes will be sent to the webhook appropriately as the strategy enters and exits positions. Only 1 alert is needed
settings used for the display image:
1hr chart on BTCUSD
-ATR stop
-Risk adjustment 1.2
-ATR multiplier 1.3
-RnR 0.6
-MAs HEMA/SMA
-MA Length 50/100
-Order size percent of equity
-Trail trigger 60% of target
Experiment with your own settings on your crypto of choice or implement your own code!
Implementing your trailing stop (optional)
Among the options for possible settings is a trailing stop. This stop will ratchet higher once triggered as a function of the Average True Range (ATR). There is a variable level to choose where the user would like to begin trailing the stop during the trade. The level can be assigned with a decimal between 0 and 1 (eg. 0.5 = 50% of the distance between entry and the target which must be exceeded before the trail triggers to begin). This can allow for some dips to occur during the trade possibly keeping you in the trade for longer, while potentially reducing risk of drawdown over time. The default for this setting is 0 meaning unless adjusted, the trail will trigger on entry if the trailing stop exit method is selected. An example can be seen below:
Again, optional as well is the choice to implement a limit order. If one were to select a trailing stop they could choose not to set a limit, which could allow a trail to run further until hit. Drawdowns of this strategy would be foregoing locking gains at highs on target on other trades. This is a trade-off the user can decide on and test. An example of this working in favor can be observed below:
Conclusion
Although a simple strategy is implemented here, the benefits of this script allow a user a starting platform to build their strategies from with built in risk mitigation. This allows the user to sidestep some of the potential difficulties' that can arise while learning Pine and taking on the endeavor of automating their trading strategies. It is meant as an aid, a structure, and an educational piece that can be seen as a "pick-up-and-go" strategy with easy 3Commas compatibility. Additionally, this can help users become more comfortable with strategy alert messages and sending strings in the form of alerts from Pine. As well, FAQs are often littered with questions regarding "strategy.exit" calls, how to implement stops. how to properly set a trailing stop based on ATR, and more. The time this can save an individual to get started is likely of the best "take-aways" here.
Happy trading
Ichimoku Cloud Strategy IdeaThis strategy idea uses the famous Ichimoku Cloud (Forward-shifted SMA-9 and SMA-26) and Chiku (52-candle lagged close price) with its default parameters. This strategy is slow and issues few signals. However, this is one of the most performant long-term trend trading strategies. It usually works well on 1D and 4H timeframes and even better on trending instruments. This is the implementation used in QuantCT app.
You can set operation mode to be Long/Short or long-only.
You also can set a fixed stop-loss or ignore it so that the strategy act solely based on entry and exit signals.
Trade Idea
When both close price and chiku are above the cloud, market is considered rising (bullish) and the plotted cloud becomes green.
When both close price and chiku are below the cloud, market is considered falling (bearish) and the plotted cloud becomes red.
Otherwise, market is considered ranging and the plotted cloud becomes orange.
Entry/Exit rules
Enter LONG right after both close price and chiku went above the cloud (i.e. when the end of the plotted cloud becomes green).
Enter SHORT right after both close price and chiku went below the cloud (i.e. when the end of the plotted cloud becomes red).
EXIT market when close price enters the cloud.
CAUTION
It's just a bare trading idea - but a profitable one. You can enhance this idea and turn it into a full trading strategy with enhanced risk/money management and optimizing it, and you ABSOLUTELY should do this!
DON'T insist on using Long/Short mode on all instruments! This strategy performs much better in Long-Only mode on several instruments (Like BTC , ETH, etc.), and also performs better in Long/Short mode on other instruments (Like VET, BNT, etc.).
Simple Buy/Sell StrategyThis is the strategy version of the original 'Simple Buy/Sell Indicator' by @Shizaru .
The original indicator description explains the logic behind the strategy:
"The original script was posted on ProRealCode by user Doctrading.
This little and simple code allows you to draw an indicator, which show you when buy or sell conditions are met.
For "buy" conditions, I did just set :
close > MM200
close > Parabolic SAR
MACD > 0
RSI7 > 50
For "sell" conditions : the opposite.
Of course, you can set what you want, in order to test your strategies.
Of course, to be profitable, you must also set your trading rules (entry, stop loss, trailing stop, take profit, etc.)
It's only an indicator, which doesn't show entry or exit rules."
Hope this helps someone!
