RSI 11 IndicatorThis script explains how RSI can be used to catch market moves in trend, reversal or sideways market.
What is RSI indicator:-
RSI is a momentum oscillator which measures the speed and change of price movements. RSI moves up and down (oscillates) between ZERO and 100. Generally RSI above 70 is considered overbought and below 30 is considered oversold. Some traders may use a setting of 20 and 80 for oversold and overbought conditions respectively. However this may reduce the number of signals. You can also use RSI to identify divergences, strength, reversals, general trend etc.
Calculation:-
There are three basic components in the RSI - Avg Gain, Avg Loss & RS.
Avg Gain = Average of Upward Price Change
Avg Loss = Average of Downward Price Change
RS = (Avg Gain)/(Avg Loss)
RSI = 100 – (100 / (1 +RS ))
First Calculation:-
RSI calculation is based on default 14 periods.
Average gain and Average loss are simple 14 period averages.
Average Loss equals the sum of the losses divided by 14 for the first calculation.
Average Gain equals the sum of the Gains divided by 14 for the first calculation.
First Average Gain = Sum of Gains over the past 14 periods / 14.
First Average Loss = Sum of Losses over the past 14 periods / 14.
The formula uses a positive value for the average loss.
RS values are smoothed after the first calculation.
Second Calculation:-
Subsequent calculations multiply the prior value by 13, add the most recent value, and divide the total by 14.
Average Gain = / 14.
Average Loss = / 14.
if
Average Loss = 0, RSI = 100 (means there were no losses to measure).
Average Gain = 0, RSI = 0 (means there were no gains to measure).
Logic of this indicator:-
RSI is an oscillator that fluctuates between zero and 100 which makes it easy to use for many traders.
Its easy to identify extremes because RSI is range-bound.
But remember that RSI works best in range bound market and is less trustworthy in trending markets.
A new trader need to be cautious because during strong trends in the market/security, RSI may remain in overbought or oversold for extended periods.
Chart Timeframe:-
RSI indicator works well on all timeframes.
Timeframe depends on which strategy or settings are you using.
Generally a lower timeframe like 1 min, 3 min, 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 Hr etc is used for intraday trades or short duration trades
and higher timeframes like 1 day, 1 week, 1 month are used for positional or long term trades.
Please Read the Idea "Mastering RSI with 11 Strategies" to understand this indicator better.
Indicator 1
Basis Strategy of Overbought and Oversold
Usually an asset with RSI reading of 70 or above indicates a bullish and an overbought situation.
overbought can be seen as trading at a higher price than it should.
traders may expect a price correction or trend reversal and sell the security.
but RSI indicator can stay in the overbought for a long time when the stock is in uptrend - This may trap an immature trader.
an Immature trader will enter a sell position when RSI become overbought (70), whereas a mature trader will enter sell position when RSI line crosses below the overbought line (70).
An asset with RSI reading of 30 or below indicates a bearish and an oversold condition.
oversold can be seen as trading at a lower price than it should.
traders may expect a price correction or trend reversal and buy the security.
but RSI indicator can stay in the oversold for a long time when the stock is in downtrend - This may trap an immature trader.
an Immature trader will enter a buy position when RSI become oversold (30), whereas a mature trader will enter buy position when RSI line crosses above the oversold line (30).
Center dotted Mid line is RSI 50.
Chart RSI is shown in yellow colour.
Red shaded area above the red horizontal line shows the stock or security has entered overbought condition. "R" signal in red shows a likely downside reversal, means it may be a likely Selling opportunity.
Green shaded area below the green horizontal line shows the stock or security has entered oversold condition. "R" signal in green shows a likely upside reversal, means it may be a likely Buying opportunity.
Note:-
so its better to wait for reversal signal.
traders may use 20 instead of 30 as oversold level and 80 instead of 70 as overbought level.
new traders may learn to use the indicator as per the prevailing trend to get better results.
false signals may be avoided by using bullish signals in bullish trend and bearish signals in bearish trend.
Indicator 2
RSI Strength Crossing 50
RSI crossing centreline 50 in the below chart showing strength and buy/sell signal.
Centre line is at RSI 50.
if RSI is above 50 its considered bullish trend. (increasing strength)
if RSI is below 50 its considered bearish trend. (decreasing strength)
RSI crossing centre line (50) upside may be a buy signal.
RSI crossing centre line (50) downside may be a sell signal.
"B" signal in green colour shows that RSI is crossing above Mid 50 horizontal line, which may be a likely Buy signal.
"S" signal in red colour shows that RSI is crossing below Mid 50 horizontal line, which may be a likely Sell signal.
Indicator 3
RSI 40 and RSI 60 Support and Resistance
RSI 40 acting as support in the below chart
In an uptrend RSI tends to remain in the 40 to 90 range with 40 as support (buying opportunity at support).
RSI 60 acting as resistance in the below chart
In a downtrend RSI tends to remain in 10 to 60 range with 60 as resistance (selling opportunity at resistance).
"40" signal in green colour shows that RSI is crossing above 40 horizontal line, which may be a likely Support in making and a Buy signal.
"60" signal in red colour shows that RSI is crossing below 60 horizontal line, which may be a likely Resistance in making and a Sell signal.
Note:-
These ranges may change depending on RSI settings and change in the market trend.
Indicator 4
RSI Divergence
Below chart shows a simple example of Bullish Divergence and Bearish Divergence.
An RSI divergence occurs when price moves in the opposite direction of the RSI.
A bullish divergence is when price is falling but RSI is rising. which means RSI making higher lows and price making lower lows (buy signal).
A bearish divergence is when price is rising but RSI is falling. which means RSI making lower high and price making higher highs (sell signal).
Divergences are more strong when appear in an overbought or oversold condition.
There may be many false signals during a strong uptrend or strong downtrend.
In a strong uptrend, RSI may show many false bearish divergences before finally reversing down.
same way in a strong downtrend, RSI may show many false bullish divergences before finally reversing up.
"Bull Div" signal along with divergence line in green colour shows Bullish Divergence, which may be a likely Buy signal.
"Bear Div" signal along with divergence line in red colour shows Bearish Divergence, which may be a likely Sell signal.
Indicator 5
Double Top & Double Bottom
Double Bottom = RSI goes below oversold (30). RSI comes back above 30. RSI falls back again towards 30 and again rise making a Double bottom. its a signal of buying and likely upside reversal.
Double Top = RSI goes above overbought (70). RSI comes back below 70. RSI rises back again towards 70 and again fall making a Double top. its a signal of selling and likely downside reversal.
Double Bottom is shown with Green Dashed line joining two low's of RSI indicating a likely Buy Signal.
Double Top is shown with Red Dashed line joining two High's of RSI indicating a likely Sell Signal.
Indicator 6
Trendline Support and Resistance
Below chart shows RSI Trendline Resistance and Support
RSI resistance trendline = Connect three or more points on the RSI line as it falls to draw a RSI downtrend line (RSI resistance trendline).
Everytime it takes resistance from a RSI downtrend line its a selling opportunity.
RSI support trendline = Connect three or more points on the RSI line as it rises to draw a RSI uptrend line (RSI support trendline).
Everytime it takes support on a RSI uptrend line its a buying opportunity.
RSI Resistance trendline shown in Red colour indicating a likely fall again after rejection from this Red trendline till the time RSI breaks above it to change the trend from Bearsih to Bullish.
RSI support trendline shown in Green colour indicating a likely Rise again after support from this Green trendline till the time RSI breaks below it to change the trend from Bullish to Bearish.
Indicator 7
Trendline Breakout and Breakdown
Below chart shows RSI Trendline Breakout and Breakdown
RSI resistance trendline Breakout = Connect three or more points on the RSI line as it falls to draw a RSI downtrend line (RSI resistance trendline).
Whenever it breakout above RSI resistance trendline its a buying opportunity.
RSI support trendline Breakdown = Connect three or more points on the RSI line as it rises to draw a RSI uptrend line (RSI support trendline).
Whenever it breakdown below RSI support trendline its a selling opportunity.
Note:-
Correlate both the RSI and the closing price to ensure proper breakout or breakdown.
Challenge is to correctly identify if a breakout or breakdown is sustainable or its a false signal.
Indicator 8
RSI Crossover same timeframe
RSI with two different RSI length crossing each other on same timeframe.
when lower RSI length crossing above higher RSI length its a buy signal.
when lower RSI length crossing below higher RSI length its a sell signal.
for example RSI with length 7 & length 14 on 15 Minutes timeframe.
Green Cross shows that Fast RSI is crossing above Slow RSI on the same timeframe with different RSI length Settings, which means it may be a likely Buy Signal.
Red Cross shows that Fast RSI is crossing below Slow RSI on the same timeframe with different RSI length Settings, which means it may be a likely Sell Signal.
Indicator 9
RSI Crossover Multi timeframe
RSI with same RSI length but on two different timeframes crossing each.
when lower timeframe RSI crossing above higher timeframe RSI its a buy signal.
when lower timeframe RSI crossing below higher timeframe RSI its a sell signal.
for example RSI with length 14 on 5 Minutes and 1 Hr timeframes.
Green Cross shows that Lower Timeframe RSI is crossing above Higher Timeframe RSI with same RSI length Settings, which means it may be a likely Buy Signal.
Red Cross shows that Lower Timeframe RSI is crossing below Higher Timeframe RSI with same RSI length Settings, which means it may be a likely Sell Signal.
Indicator 10
RSI EMA/WMA/SMA Crossover
when RSI crossing above EMA/WMA/SMA its a buy signal.
when RSI crossing below EMA/WMA/SMA its a sell signal.
Green Circle shows that RSI is crossing above EMA/WMA/SMA etc, which means it may be a likely Buy Signal.
Red Circle shows that RSI is crossing below EMA/WMA/SMA etc, which means it may be a likely Sell Signal.
Indicator 11
RSI with Bollinger bands
Bollinger bands and RSI complimenting each other and giving a Buy and Sell signal in below chart
if a security price reaches upper band of a Bollinger Band channel and also the RSI is above 70 (overbought), a trader can look for selling opportunities (reversal) (sell).
but in case price reaches upper band of a Bollinger Band channel but RSI is not above 70 (overbought), there may be chance that security remains in an uptrend, so a trader may wait before entering a sell position.
if a security price reaches lower band of a Bollinger Band channel and also the RSI is below 30 (oversold), a trader can look for buying opportunities (reversal) (buy).
but in case price reaches lower band of a Bollinger Band channel but RSI is not below 30 (oversold), there may be chance that security remains in an downtrend, so a trader may wait before entering a buy position.
so bollinger band with RSI can give a double confirmation on a reversal.
Buy Signal = If the RSI is below Green Horizontal line (Oversold zone) and also below Lower Bollinger Band it indicates that an upside reversal may come, which means that it may be a likely Buy Signal.
Sell Signal = If the RSI is above Red Horizontal line (Overbought zone) and also above Upper Bollinger Band it indicates that an Downside reversal may come, which means that it may be a likely Sell Signal.

Limitations of the RSI:-
RSI works best in range bound market and is less trustworthy in trending markets.
So new traders may get trapped in an uptrend or a downtrend if they forget to see the overall long term trend of that security.
Traders should set stop loss and take profit levels as per risk reward ratio.
Note:
Don't confuse RSI and relative strength. RSI is changes in the price momentum of a security.
whereas relative strength compares the price performance of two or more securities.
Like other technical indicators, RSI also is not a holy grail. It can only assist you in building a good strategy. You can only succeed with proper position sizing, risk management and following correct trading Psychology (No overtrade, No greed, No revenge trade etc).
THIS INDICATOR OF RSI IS FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSE AND PAPER TRADING ONLY. YOU MAY PAPER TRADE TO GAIN CONFIDENCE AND BUILD FURTHER ON THESE. PLEASE CONSULT YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR BEFORE INVESTING. WE ARE NOT SEBI REGISTERED.
Hope you all like it
happy learning.

How to: Find the best RSI for trading
It's important to remember that merely having the AI-Optimized RSI on your chart doesn't automatically provide you with the best strategy. You need to follow the AI's guidance through an iterative process to discover the optimal RSI settings and strategy.
1.Starting Your Strategy Setup
Begin by deciding your goals for each trade: your profit target and stop loss. You'll also choose how to manage your stops – whether they stay put (fixed) or move with the price (trailing), and whether you want to exit trades at a specific price (limit orders). Keep the initial settings for RSI lengths and cross ranges at their default to give the tool a broad testing field. The AI's guidance will refine these settings to pinpoint the most effective ones through a process of comprehensive testing.
The image above shows our chart prior to any optimization efforts.
Note: the settings shown above in the key settings section will be used to start our demonstration.
2. Follow AI’s suggestions
Optimization Prompt: After loading your strategy, the indicator will prompt you to change the RSI length range and RSI level range to a better performing range.
Continue changing the RSI length range and RSI level range to match the indicator's suggestions until "Best Found" is displayed!
The image above shows results after we applied the tool’s suggestions. New suggestions have appeared, and we will continue to apply them.
Continue to adjust settings as recommended by the optimizer. If no better options are found, the optimizer will suggest increasing the number of combinations. Repeat this process until the optimizer indicates that the optimal setting has been identified.
Success! With the "Best Found" notification, an optimized RSI is now active. The AI will keep refining the strategy based on ongoing performance, ensuring continuous optimization.
AI Mode
AI Mode incorporates Heuristic-Based Adaptive Learning to fine-tune trading strategies in a continuous manner. This feature consists of two main components:
Heuristic-Based Decision Making: The algorithm evaluates multiple RSI-based trading strategies using specific metrics such as Profit and Loss (PNL), Win Rate, and Most Efficient Profit. These metrics act as heuristics to assist the algorithm in identifying suitable strategies for trade execution.
Online Learning: The algorithm updates the performance evaluations of each strategy based on incoming market data. This enables the system to adapt to current market conditions.
Incorporating both heuristic-based decision-making and online learning, this feature aims to provide a framework for trading strategy optimization.
Settings
AI Mode Aggressiveness:
Description: The "AI Mode Aggressiveness" setting allows you to fine-tune the AI's trading behavior. This setting ranges from “Low” to “High”, with “High” indicating a more assertive trading approach.
Functionality: This feature filters trading strategies based on a proprietary evaluation method. A higher setting narrows down the strategies that the AI will consider, leaning towards more aggressive trading. Conversely, a lower setting allows for a more conservative approach by broadening the pool of potential strategies.
Adaptive Learning Aggressiveness:
Description: When Adaptive Learning is enabled, the "Adaptive Learning Aggressiveness" setting controls how dynamically the AI adapts to market conditions using selected performance metrics.
Functionality: This setting impacts the AI's responsiveness to shifts in strategy performance. By adjusting this setting, you can control how quickly the AI moves away from strategies that may have been historically successful but are currently underperforming, towards strategies that are showing current promise.
Optimization
Trading system optimization is immensely advantageous when executed with prudence.
Technical-oriented, mechanical trading systems work when a valid correlation is methodical to the extent that an objective, precisely-defined ruleset can consistently exploit it. If no such correlation exists, or a technical-oriented system is erroneously designed to exploit an illusory correlation (absent predictive utility), the trading system will fail.
Evaluate results practically and test parameters rigorously after discovery. Simply mining the best-performing parameters and immediately trading them is unlikely a winning strategy. Put as much effort into testing strong-performing parameters and building an accompanying system as you would any other trading strategy. Automated optimization involves curve fitting - it's the responsibility of the trader to validate a replicable sequence or correlation and the trading system that exploits it.

Integration with External Indicators : Enhance strategy refinement by incorporating custom or publicly available indicators from TradingView into the optimization process.
Key Settings
The image above shows explanations for a list of key settings for the optimizer.
Set the Factor Range Limits : The AI suggests optimal upper and lower limits for the Factor range, defining the sensitivity of the Supertrend to price fluctuations. A wider range tests a greater variety, while a narrower range focuses on fine-tuning.
Adjust the ATR Range : Use the AI's recommendations to establish the upper and lower bounds for the Average True Range (ATR), which influences the Supertrend's volatility threshold.
ATR Flip : This option lets you interchange the order of ATR and Factor values to quicky test different sequences, giving you the flexibility to explore various combinations and their impact on the Supertrend indicator's performance.
Strategies Evaluated : Adjust this setting to determine how many Supertrend strategies you want to assess and compare.
Enable AI Mode : Turn this feature on to allow the AI to determine and employ the optimal Supertrend strategy with the desired performance metric, such as the highest win rate or maximum profitability.
Target Metric : Adjust this to direct the AI towards optimizing for maximum profit, top win rates, or the most efficient profits.
AI Mode Aggressiveness : Set how assertively the AI pursues the chosen performance goal, such as highest profit or win rate.
Strategy Direction : Choose to focus the AI's testing and optimization on either long or short Supertrend strategies.
Stop Loss Type : Specify the stop loss approach for optimization—fixed value, a trailing stop, or Supertrend direction changes.
Limit Order : Decide if you want to execute trades using limit orders for setting your profit targets, stop losses, or apply them to both.
Profit Target : Define your desired profit level when using either a fixed stop loss or a trailing stop.
Stop Loss : Define your desired stop loss when using either a fixed stop loss or a trailing stop.
How to: Find the best Supertrend for trading
It's important to remember that merely having the AI-Optimized Supertrend on your chart doesn't automatically provide you with the best strategy. You need to follow the AI's guidance through an iterative process to discover the optimal Supertrend settings and strategy.
Optimizing Supertrend involves adjusting two key parameters: the Factor and the Average True Range (ATR). These parameters significantly influence the Supertrend indicator's sensitivity and responsiveness to price movements.
Factor : This parameter multiplies the ATR to determine the distance of the Supertrend line from the price. Higher values will create a wider band, potentially leading to fewer trade signals, while lower values create a narrower band, which may result in more signals but also more noise.
ATR (Average True Range) : ATR measures market volatility. By using the ATR, the Supertrend adapts to changing market volatility; a higher ATR value means a more volatile market, so the Supertrend adjusts accordingly.
During the optimization process, these parameters are systematically varied to determine the combination that yields the best performance based on predefined criteria such as profitability, win rate, or risk management efficiency. The optimization aims to find the optimal Factor and ATR settings.
1.Starting Your Strategy Setup
Begin by deciding your goals for each trade: your profit target and stop loss, or if all trades exit when Supertrend changes direction. You'll also choose how to manage your stops – whether they stay put (fixed) or move with the price (trailing), and whether you want to exit trades at a specific price (limit orders). Keep the initial settings for Supertrend Factor Range and Supertrend ATR Range at their default to give the tool a broad testing field. The AI's guidance will refine these settings to pinpoint the most effective ones through a process of comprehensive testing.
Demonstration Start: We'll begin with the settings outlined in the key settings section, using Supertrend's direction change to the downside as our exit signal for all trades.
2. Continue applying the AI’s suggestions
Keep updating your optimization settings based on the AI's recommendations. Proceed with this iterative optimization until the "Best Found" message is displayed, signaling that the most effective strategy has been identified.
While following the AI's suggestions, we've been prompted with a new suggestion: increase the
number of strategies evaluated. Keep following the AI's new suggestions to evaluate more strategies. Do this until the "Best Found" message shows up.
Success! We continued to follow the AI’s suggestions until “Best Found” was indicated!

ONWAY Indicator PV6The ONWAY indicator is a comprehensive and earnestly designed tool aimed to increase confidence in a traders market bias. ONWAY analyzes market trends, market strength, and price action near key pivot levels to form a bias on future price action. Of course, it is fundamentally impossible to predict the future, but we all try it now don't we. Gain an edge in the markets and add ONWAY to your tool box.
ONWAY Functionality
Confirmation Signals: ONWAY provides real-time, non-repaint BUY and SELL signals upon the active timeframes candle close.
Targets and Stops: ONWAY will, upon signal confirmation, set a target and stop loss.
Position Management: ONWAY will monitor its current position, if one exists, and attempt to tighten the stop loss if possible.
ONWAY Details
Symbols and Timeframes: ONWAY is restricted to approved symbols and timeframes indicated by the 🟢 icon next to "Optimized:" and "ONWAY Timeframe:" on the dashboard. If an unapproved combination of symbol and timeframe is in use, ONWAY will be disabled (no signals will be visible). See author's instructions for the current ONWAY watchlist or to submit a symbol/timeframe request.
Position Details: Apart from the on chart signals and position plot, the ONWAY dashboard will indicate the current position, entry price, target price, and stop price.
Stop Loss: ONWAY has a unique stop loss/exit strategy that has proved, based on our calculations, to be advantageous. If price reaches or exceeds the stop loss, ONWAY will not close the position unless there is a candle close on the active timeframe exceeding the stop level. This is known as a soft stop loss and identified on the dashboard as "(Soft)" next to the stop price. Additionally, the stop loss will change throughout the position, following the low, for a long position or high, for a short position, within a given period, but the soft stop loss will not exceed beyond a 1:1 risk to reward ratio (the risk will always be equal to or less than the potential reward). It is importance to be aware that the soft stop is utilized at this 1:1 threshold as well. On the plus side, the changing stop loss will impose a risk free position if it finds itself between the entry price and target price. At this stage the soft stop is no longer utilized, the stop loss can only approach the target price, and profit is uhhh.....certain (I don't think the mods will like that word 😉). If the soft stop is no longer in use, the dashboard will indicate this with "(Hard)" next to the stop price.
Position Sizing: The position sizing used for the backtested results is displayed on the dashboard next to "Strategy Lot Size:". This position size is provided solely as a reference for the backtest results. The choice of a position size is left to the users discretion.
Backtest Results: With any strategy, backtesting is an excellent way to judge performance and viability, but it is important to recognize that past performance does not confirm repeatability in future market conditions.
Updates: ONWAY updates its acceptable symbols frequently to account for everchanging market conditions. This includes adding new symbols, rejecting previously compatible symbols, and modifying the optimal window for current symbols.
Acceptability Criteria: The criteria for a symbol to be deemed acceptable requires that its backtested results deliver a win rate greater than 70%, profit factor greater than 1.2, and its equity chart appear favorable. These metrics are available to users by clicking on "Strategy Tester" located on the bottom panel of the chart view.
Accessibility: To gain access to ONWAY, see the author's instructions below.
Use of this script implies that you acknowledge that past performance does not necessarily indicate future results and that guarantees are not possible in this trading realm.
BNBUSD 1 Minute Chart / 1 Hour BBand Day Trading 3Commas*** As always, this is provided for educational purposes only and I am not an investment advisor; I'm just a guy who likes to come up with novel ideas and share them with other traders so they can learn. ***
This strategy is a fun one. I took parts of 'Bollinger Awesome Alert R1 by JustUncleL' () and modified it to have enhanced day trading functionality. This version does not show source and that is by design - I want the alerts to be visible to the public and if you want to get set up with a version that integrates with 3commas, drop me a message - there's a lot more that goes into setting up automated 3commas trading but this script was written specifically with 3commas in mind.
It's possible this is one of the more interesting strategy indicators I've made. The setup I used for this is as such and you will need to set it up the same way:
One minute chart for the BNB/USD(T) pair on Binance.us (other exchanges will likely work, other coin pairs or other time frames will likely not)
This script watches the one minute chart and when price golden crosses the lower Bollinger band, a buy order is placed.
There are two sell conditions; one I set up to take profit and one I designed as a kind of stop loss. I went with a flat 7.5% for the take profit as this showed the best results in the backtester. I had planned for it to be closer to 3% but for this strategy to work it needs to be higher. According to the backtest it offers around double the return of buying and holding BNB over the sample timeframe.
The 'stop loss' condition is where the fun lies. I transposed Bollinger bands from a one hour BNBUSD Binance.us chart on top of the 1 minute chart and those are the blue lines you see. The stop loss condition happens when the current price death crosses the bottom one hour Bollinger band. Ironically, often this doesn't result in any losses as you will see in the chart and instead results in a small win. This definitely was not my intention when I created it but it's a lot better than the earlier version where I set up a variable percentage-based stop loss. Even with me optimizing the regular stop loss for this coin pair, my 1 hour bband method nets an extra 2% profit over the same two week time period, even with Binance fees factored in!
Have fun and like I said, hmu via message if you want access to the customizable indicator for 3commas!
TFi Pivot Reversal V3The Pivot Reversal Study uses pivot points to create a support and resistance level; based on this levels the script creates virtual stop-market orders to catch the trend if the price is crossing the pivot lines.
A "Pyramiding" input allows to configure up to 3 entries; the script enters an additional position if the price falls by a configurable percentage amount (long), the reverse to short orders.
A configurable profit-target and stop-loss is being used to exit an open position.
An optional Moving Average filter can be used to enable only long or short positions.
The script renders a status box at the last bar, which shows the current position status and result of the built-in trading simulation results.
It shows the following statistic values:
current position PnL - also background turns green if position is in profit and red if in loss
the percentage distance to the profit-target and stop-loss level
the overall number of wins and losses and the win/loss ratio
the overall profit and loss amount (assuming a quantity of 1)
the net-profit and profit-ratio
For the correct simulation of entry/exit prices, the script contains inputs for a percentage entry and exit slippage.
The study also creates configurable alerts, which follow the exact position of the entry/exit markers. The default alert messages contain trading instruction to execute orders via Alertatron; but the message content can be replaced if configuring the alert in the Tradingview environment.
The script was mainly backtested with crypto-coins, e.g. XBTUSD at 15min timeframe. But the script also works with any other type of security and timeframe.

Backtest PREMIUM Suite+ (Plug & Play)Hello traders
I. 💎 SCRIPTS ACCESS AND TRIALS 💎
1. For the trial request access, they have to be done through my website .
2. My website URL is in this script signature at the very bottom (you'll have to scroll down a bit and going past the long description) and in my profile status available here : Daveatt
Due to the new scripts publishing house rules, I won't mention the URL here directly. As I value my partnership with TradingView very much, I prefer showing you the way for finding them :)
3. Many video tutorials explaining clearly how all our indicators work are available on our website > guides section.
4. You may also contact me directly for more information
II. 🔎 Backtest PREMIUM Suite+ (Plug & Play) 🔎
2.1 Forewords
This indicator is available only to our PREMIUM 12 months users. YES! I said indicator, and not strategy or backtest for an excellent reason.
We wanted to make it as generic as possible and allow anyone to connect any indicator of his/her choice in a few clicks only.
This is NOT possible (in TradingView) with a strategy/backtest, but only with an indicator - that's why we worked on recoding the whole backtest logic as an indicator.
The PRO edition does not handle any pyramiding/re-entry - as such enters only once per trend by design. This feature is reserved for our PREMIUM users.
2.2 Concept
This is an indicator that I saw on TradingView and was introduced by the @Pinecoders account on TradingView.
I inspired myself from his Backtest Engine to offer a version more adapted to my vision - The benefits of connecting yourself any indicator to our Backtest engine are amazing and huge.
The concept can't be more simple. Imagine using any indicator and connecting to a backtest system in a single click.
You may connect your Algorithm Builder also to this complete backtesting system in a single click.
What's better between paying thousands for each backtest, or connecting yourself your indicators to your backtest with a click?
That was a rhetoric question, but you can still share your answer with me if you want to :)
III. The amazing benefits of our🔌&🕹️ (Plug&Play) system
Issue #1 💲 A BACKTEST SYSTEM IS COSTLY 💲
Hiring a developer to code a custom indicator is costly. For a custom backtest it's even more expensive as those scripts are very often way more complicated.
Now imagine, that now that you see your idea live on a chart, you'll realize you'll have to finance another backtest system, as the one you have is not compatible with your new idea.
Solution #1 💲💲 YOU COULD BE SAVING SOME MONEY 💲💲
just because it won't be needed to hire someone else for each of your trading idea.
We will never guarantee your success on the market, but THIS I stand by it any day any hour.
You can connect any indicator or your choice by updating your indicator slightly and connecting it to our Backtest engine. We send the tutorial for doing it to all our customers.
Issue #2 🕔 IT'S TIME-CONSUMING 🕔
Even if someone is doing all the coding for you, it might require days/weeks depending on your overall trading strategy/idea.
Without even counting the time for you to test/validate the work done and all the back-and-forth to fix all the issues.
Solution #2 SAVING TIME MIGHT EQUATES TO SAVING MONEY : 🕔 = 💲💲💲
I wish it could be as easy as going from weeks of coding to "1 single click" :)
I did the heavy-lifting, but you'll have to make the last effort the cross the finishing line. I made it easy for you to play with it and find a configuration that makes sense to YOU and for your strategy/asset/timeframe
Issue #3 ❌ IT'S COMPLICATED ❌
Someone did a backtest code for you, but... you can't update it because you either :
- don't know anything in programming
- ... and don't have time to learn (most of us have a job/family/...life)
- The system you have is way too specific for one of your previous idea, but can't be updated easily for your next trading ideas. I see a lot of traders nodding right now thinking "that's soooooo true !!!!"
Solution #3 🎉 WE MADE IT EASY AND FUN 🎉
Our goal is to externalize the technical stuff that you don't want to take care of - so that you can finally focus on your trading and optimizing your ideas. #bold #statement
In case you're wondering, no we're not reading your mind :), but we're also traders who didn't know how to code before and had to hire external programmers to do the heavy work for us.
You can be sure that most of the frustrations (trading, technical, ...) you have/had, we had them also and that's why we created this backtest indicator.
III. 🔌&🕹️
Hope you're ready to be impressed. Because, what I'm about to introduce, is my best-seller feature - and available across many of my indicators.
In TradingView, there is a feature called "Indicator on Indicator" meaning you can use an external indicator as a data source for another indicator.
I'm using that feature to connect any external indicator to our Backtest PREMIUM Suite+ (Plug & Play) - hence the plug and play name. Please don't make it a plug and pray :) it's supposed to help you out, not to stress you even more
Let's assume you want to connect your Algorithm Builder Multiple Trends+ to your Backtest PREMIUM Suite+
I mentioned an Algorithm Builder but you may connect any oscillator (MACD, On balance volume, stochastic RSI, True Strenght index, and many more..) or non-oscillator (divergence, trendline break, higher highs/lower lows, candlesticks pattern, price action, harmonic patterns, ...) indicators.
THE SKY IS (or more likely your imagination) is the limit :)
Fear no more. The Plug&Play technology allows you to connect it and use it the backtest calculations.
This is not magic, neither is sorcery, but certainly is way beyond the most awesome thing I've ever developed on TradingView (even across all brokers I know). #bolder #statement
TradingView is the best trading platform by far and I'm very grateful to offer my indicators on their website.
To connect your external indicator to ours, we're using a native TradingView feature, which is not available for all users.
It depends on your TradingView subscription plan ( More info here )
If you intend to use our Algorithm Plug&Play indicator, and/or our Backtest Plug&Play suites, then you must upgrade your TradingView account to enjoy those features.
We value our relationship with our customers seriously, and that's why we're warning you that a compatible TradingView account type is required - at least PRO+ or PREMIUM to add more than 1 Plug&Play indicator per account.
We go in-depth on our website why the Plug&Play is an untapped opportunity for many traders out there - URL available on my profile status and signature
IV. 📊 Make it nice! 📊
Now we're getting right into the fun stuff.
Let's explore briefly each display option (symbolized by an 👁️🗨️ in the Backtest UI) :
- Color Traded Background : Color the chart background is green when in a BUY trade, in red when in a SELL trade. If the Backtest is not in a trade, then the background won't be colored.
- Show Entry/Exit Markers : Displays the entries (Enter Long/Enter Short), and exits (Exit Long/Exit Short) labels.
- Show Entry Level : Displays a blue level line to easily identify the entry price of a trade.
- Show Take Profit Level : Display a purple line to visualize where the Take Profit level is (we'll explain below how to set it up).
- Show In-Trade Stops : Display the stop-loss
V. Backtesting filters
A backtest should have some filters helping the traders testing a few hypotheses. Well.... we included a ton of them.
Once again, thank you @Pinecoders for the help and support you gave me
5.1 ↑ Trade Direction ↓
- Both: The backtest takes the BUY, and SELL trades.
- Longs only/Short only: To be used if the trader wants to take the trades in a unique direction only
5.2 ▲🔷Pyramiding🔷▼
The Backtest PRO allows 1 entry per identified trend
Pyramiding has many names such as Re-entry, secondary trend, Additional entry, ...
Basically, it refers to entering multiple times in the same trend.
Maximum Number of Pyramiding Entries: Literally the max number of re-entries in the same trend.
For instance, if set to 2, then depending on the signals, you'll get at most 2 re-entries in the same trade direction.
- Position Size Multiple of Original Entry Position: Option to add X multiples of the original position size for the re-entries.
Example: Position size multiple = 2, and First entry size is $100. Then, the re-entries position sizes will be ($100 X 2 = $200).
5.3 ▄ █ Position sizing █ ▄
- 1. % of Equity: If selected, the position size used is the input to the right of 1. % of Equity.
Example: The trader starts with a capital of 100K. After a winning trade, your total capital is $103K - for the next trade the position size will be 3% of $103K
- 2. % of Capital: If selected, the position size used is the input to the right of 2. % of Capital.
In other words, the position size will always be the same position size as calculated on the initial capital.
Example: The trader starts with a capital of 100K. After a winning trade, your total capital is $103K - for the next trade the position size will be 5% of $100K. (As 100K is the initial capital used in our dummy example)
5.4⛔ Entry Stops and In-Trade Stops ⛔
We didn't reinvent the wheel here. Any good backtest should offer an entry stop-loss and an in-trade stop-loss.
Giving only here also an example among all the use cases. For instance, the trader sets a stop-loss 2% at the time of entry on your trade, but once the trade moves in the desired direction, the trader might want a trailing stop-loss using a 4% input.
Example: A trader goes LONG on only 1 "ABC" stock evaluated $10 per share.
1) The entry-stop loss will be 2% away so set at $8
2) A candle
3) The trailing stop will activate, and move the stop-loss from the entry stop-loss level (=$8) to $8.32 (=4% move up from $8) - and so on, and so forth for each time the price moves 4% up
The entry and in-trade stop losses can absolutely be identicals. There is no universal rule, and as always you know the drill - all depends on your backtest, and trading strategy as a whole.
5.5 ❌ Hard Exits ❌
⚠️The Backtest PRO Suite offers the hard exit on MACD only.
Our Backtest PREMIUM Suite offers 2 more indicators to invalidate your trades on :
1. MACD
2. Trend Direction
3. RSI divergence (Regular, and Hidden)
The hard exit (or invalidation) is a fundamental part of my trading method.
I explained numerous times on TradingView, our website, and social media channels why I "love" this concept so much, and how it saved my trading account numerous times from getting savagely wrecked by the market.
5.6 💲💲 Take Profit 💲💲
We only included 1 level of Take Profit so far. We'll work on adding at least one more soon.
You can set your Take Profit level based on either a:
1- Fixed value
2 - Percentage value
5.7 📆 Date Range Filtering 📆
If enabled, the backtest only uses the data between the starting and the ending dates of the defined range.
5.8 ⏱️ Hourly Range Filtering ⏱️
Please note that the hours filtering is based on the broker time - not on your chart time.
In other words, if your chart is UTC+1, but you're trading an asset from a US EAST COAST broker, then the timezone used is the UTC-4 timezone.
You'll must be wary of this when filtering and probably do a quick (but simple) calculation before setting up this option.
The easiest would be to set your chart timezone on the broker local timezone (and no math is needed).
Let's add a quick note that the hourly filter is also included in our Algorithm Builders PRO/PREMIUM 12 months. #shameless #self #advertising
5.9 ❗❗ Fees and Slippage ❗❗
Too often completely ignored by many traders, the fees can eat gains out quickly/deepen one's capital faster than expected.
⚠️The fees vary between brokers, and asset traded - it could be recommended to check on your broker page what are the fees for the asset on your chart, and insert that percentage number.
Another cost ignored, even more, is the Slippage.
i.e. think about a Stop-Loss being hit, and we're so confused because we see on the chart that NEVER the price came even close to your SL level, but... it got hit anyway.
Yes! we know how frustrating it is, but that's the game we're playing, and trading should never be about blaming the game, but only blaming the players/traders/ourselves.
Blaming the game constantly is likely to not end with good performance results, but accounting for this "risk", and being able to quantify it is an incredible hedge. #bold #statement #level #10000
5.10 🔔 Alerts 🔔
By design, the alerts aren't available for strategy scripts. But this script is an... indicator so why should we not enjoy all the cards in our hands the fullest.
We enabled the alerts on the:
1. Main BUY/SELL Entry
2. Pyramiding BUY/SELL Entries
3. Exit Signals such as stop-loss, take-profit, hard-exits
You're welcome :)
VI. 📝 Where are the backtest results? 📝
Answer: in the Data Window section of your TradingView
Now the cherry on the cake if we might say so. A backtest is cool, but visualizing results is actually the end goal here.
Our PREMIUM users benefit from way more analytics than the PRO users.
More info available on our website.
The Data Window is dynamic - it means whenever you'll mouseover at a give time on your chart, the data on that panel automatically updates.
Let's assume you're backtesting your idea between Sept 1st, 2019, and Oct 1st, 2019.
If your mouse cursor is located (or hovered) at a candle on Sept 14th, 2019 (data chosen randomly for this example), then the data displayed only includes the results between Sept 1st, and Sept 14th.
More info available on our website with a nice tutorial video. Data window metrics and filters explained on our website
Here's what the data window looks like: imgur.com
If you have any doubt or question, please hit me up directly or ask in the comments section of this script.
I'll never claim I have the best trading methodology or the best indicators.
You only will judge and I'll appreciate all the questions and feedback you're sending my way.
They help me a ton to develop indicators based on all the requests I received.
Kind regards,
Dave

Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ (Plug&Play)Hello traders
I. SCRIPTS ACCESS AND TRIALS
1. For the trial request access, they have to be done through my website .
2. My website URL is in this script signature at the very bottom (you'll have to scroll down a bit and going past the long description) and in my profile status available here : Daveatt
Due to the new scripts publishing house rules, I won't mention the URL here directly. As I value my partnership with TradingView very much, I prefer showing you the way for finding them :)
3. You may also contact me directly for more information
II. Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ Plug&Play
2.1 Concept
That script is an upgrade of the Single Trend:
The Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ (Plug & Play) is made to detect the convergence of many unrelated indicators, and give a BUY or SELL signal whenever all the selected sub-indicators are converging in the same direction.
The Single Trend+ (Plug & Play) gives one single entry per identified trend - unlike the Multiple Trends editions (also available on my scripts page) which may give more than 1 entry per trend.
The traders select the sub-indicators they want, and see in real-time the BUY and SELL triangles being updated.
III. Plug & Play
Hope you're ready to be impressed. Because, what I'm about to introduce, is my best-seller feature - and available across many of my indicators.
In TradingView, there is a feature called "Indicator on Indicator" meaning you can use an external indicator as a data source for another indicator.
I'm using that feature to connect any external indicator to our Algorithm Builder Single Trend+ Plug & Play (hence the plug and play name).
Let's assume you have your RSI divergence indicator - which is not part of the Algorithm Builder - but noticed that the convergence of an RSI divergence and a MACD gives strong signals.
I mentioned an RSI divergence, but you may connect any oscillator (MACD, On balance volume, stochastic RSI, True Strenght index, and many more..) or non-oscillator (divergence, trendline break, higher highs/lower lows, candlesticks pattern, price action, harmonic patterns, ...) indicators.
Any indicator that displays visual signals are eligible for this feature .... in other words.... all possible indicators. You're welcome :)

Fear no more. The Plug&Play technology allows you to connect it and use it in the convergence/confluence calculations.
Hence, whenever the MACD and RSI divergence will be in the same direction for the first time, you'll get a signal. For the first time only because this is a Single trend edition - you may enter multiple times using our Algorithm Builders - Multiple Trends editions.
To connect your external indicator to ours, we're using a native TradingView feature, which is not available for all users.
It depends on your TradingView subscription plan ( More info here )
If you intend to use our Algorithm Plug&Play indicator, and/or our Backtest Plug&Play suites, then you must upgrade your TradingView account to enjoy those features.
We value our relationship with our customers seriously, and that's why we're warning you that a compatible TradingView account type is required - at least PRO+ or PREMIUM to add more than 1 Plug&Play indicator per account.
We go in-depth on our website why the Plug&Play is an untapped opportunity for many traders out there - URL available on my profile status and signature
IV. Why the Algorithm Builder Single Trend+ (Plug&Play) may help you
I worked with many traders during my career, and their feedback about trading is often pretty similar.
They all tried a lot of complicated indicators, losing their capital, and finally getting back to the basics (even to the basic indicators if I might say)
The art is finding a good combination of indicators and setting strict money/risk management rules.
Easy in concept, but more than 90+% of traders lose money on the markets... which teach us that trading is not only about drawing trendlines, or using cool indicators but finding ways to ease our psychology while trading.
4.1 The Algorithm Builder trading framework
The sub-indicators (full list on our website) weren't chosen randomly. They're based on a trading method we've developed over the last 6 years - while working with traders and other trading quants.
The Algo Builders are made to detect a convergence - and as such, will give a signal once a trend has been identified.
They're not made to detect reversal but have been designed to give a signal when all sub-indicators are either ALL bullish (green) or ALL bearish (red).
We provide a framework based on indicators we selected because they:
1. make sense to be used altogether
2. work on asset classes like INDEX, CRYPTO, STOCK OPTIONS, FOREX, COMMODITIES
3. it may expand your knowledge about what detecting a convergence with pre-selected indicator really means
4.2 Supports and Resistances
The indicator displays the main algorithmic supports and resistances according to our trading method.
I think they're relevant for all asset classes, but you're absolutely free to use any different supports/resistances logic if you want to.
I'm not against it because I know that pivots, Fibonacci levels, etc. may work very well also.
4.3 Choose your favorite risk management algorithm
1/ Pre-defined Algo S/R method using:
- a supertrend of the stop-loss
- the nearest algorithmic resistances for the take profit levels.
2/ Define your own Stop-loss and Take-profits level in real-time
Stop-Loss Management
For what's following, let's assume that 2 is the stop-loss value you inserted in the indicator, and the Algorithm Builder gives a BUY signal.
This is NOT a recommendation at all, only an example to explain how this feature works.
- %Trailing: The Stop-Loss starts 2% away from the entry price - and will move up (because we're on a BUY trade as per our example) every time your trade will gain 2% profit
- Percentage: The Stop-Loss stays static 2% away from the entry price. There is no trailing here
- TP Trailing: This is a very awesome feature. The stop-loss is set 2% away when the trades start.
When the TP1 is hit, the stop-loss will be moved to the Entry price (also called breakeven).
When the TP2 is hit, the SL is moved to the previous TP1 position
- Fixed: Set the Stop-Loss at a fixed position (value should be in currency/units)
Take Profits Management
You can manage up to 2 take profit levels defined as a percentage or price value.
The expected input is in percentage value (for instance, setting the % target of TP1 to 2% will set the TP1 level 2% away from the entry price
4.4 Built-in Trade Manager
This is very likely the most loved utility script that we shared on TradingView.
It's included in your Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+, and will certainly help you immensely to analyze your charts and your trades.
We made sure that all the graphical elements on the chart will be updated in real-time whenever our user change anything on the indicator configuration.
You'll also be able to change the Trade Manager labels positions as you wish :)
4.5 Built-in Risk-to-Reward Panel
The good stuff doesn't stop here.
You'll notice that this sometimes green (when in a LONG), sometimes red (when in a SHORT) panel at the right of your chart.
It displays for the selected trading algorithmic (see 2.3.2 above), a ton of useful real-time analytics.
- Entry Price: the price when the Algorithm Builder will give a signal.
- The Trade PnL in percentage.
- Entry Stop Loss: Distance (in currency/units) between the selected stop-loss algorithm (percent, trailing, TP trailing, etc.) and the entry price.
- Entry TP1: Distance (in currency/units) between the entry price and the first take profit
- Entry TP2: Distance (in currency/units) between the entry price and the second take profit
- Risk/Reward TP1: Using the Stop-loss distance at entry, and Take Profit 1 at entry to compute the risk-to-reward ratio.
- Risk/Reward TP2: Using the Stop-loss distance at entry, and Take Profit 2 at entry to compute the risk-to-reward ratio.

4.6Hard Exits
Our trading method is known for the hard exits, also called invalidation.
The Single Trend+ includes a hard exit based on a MACD - settings are flexible and you may update them.
Having a stop-loss protecting your trade is a best practice - Protecting your stop-loss also from getting hit is incredible.
We prefer invalidate a few positions, even if sometimes we don't want to. Rather than the market hard exiting on us, and leaving with our hard-working money.

V. Pain points that we're trying to solve with our Algorithm Builders
Issue #1 There are many informations / indicators / strategies / backtests / noise. Finding the right ones is not a simple task.
Solution #1 A reliable system that removes the external noise is much needed in trading to stay "in the game".
Issue #2 Trading could be quite stressful - The majority doesn't lose in trading because technical analysis is hard, but because managing our psychology is one of the hardest things a human can do.
Solution #2 Some ways to reduce the "trading stress" could be: getting better quality signals and trading like a "machine". Forgetting about Twitter and trusting the system you designed.
Issue #3 Trading without strict rules and only based on what we feel, or what we think the market should do is the fastest way to kiss our money goodbye.
Only 1 indicator generally is not enough. Traders generally use a combination of several indicators but they're monitoring them individually.
It's normal then to feel exhausted at the end of the day ^^ (to say the least)... and exhaustion leads to mistakes which leads to..... (I'm sure you got it) ... capital loss.
Solution #3 As a trader, I needed a trading framework and a method. I offer our trading method but they're plenty others out there. We cannot claim obviously it's the best ever ....but let's say we're using those exact same
scripts ourselves for our trading. And this what we've been recommending our clients to trade with for the past years. Also, having a tool detecting the convergence of several indicators and giving 1 unique signal
for BUY/SELL position will save you a lot of time/energy, and perhaps might help you out getting better trading performance.
VI. Resolving a complex puzzle and having fun in the process
Trading has to stay a passion and not (only be) a source of intense stress.
The most successful traders I know are "trading geeks" - literally always looking for optimizing, searching for the best possible entries, setups, indicators, tools, etc.
For them, it's not even about the money anymore, but only about beating their previous performance.
Why are they doing this? Because it's fun
Might appears as a bold statement, but I guarantee that looking for setups is fun.
One of our users even told us, that it's like playing with "Legos" and we couldn't possibly agree more.
VII. Designing a system that "makes sense"
Another bold statement now. Brace yourselves ladies and gentlemen
The Algorithm Builders allow to design trading systems quickly. What could takes days/weeks/months to find out... might be now within your reach in less than a few hours.
With a bit of practice, less than an hour might be enough per asset/timeframe to find a system that makes sense to you and adapted to your trading capital and psychology.
Assuming our users read our guides and are fully committed to learning a new way of trading - then we do guarantee you'll be able to design kick-ass trading systems that make sense.
"Making sense" doesn't mean at all it's guaranteed to win, it means you're the one defining the convergence of indicators, using your Algorithm Builder, and observe that most of the time - whenever there is a BUY signal, the candlesticks are going upwards - whenever there is a SELL signal, it's going downwards.
This is a necessary step to make real progress from a trading analyst perspective - and hopefully could lead to profits.
VII. Algorithm Builder versus the main trader enemy(=psychology)
This indicator has the goal to help solving one of the MAIN issues encountered by traders.
Most of traders realize, they can't perform with only 1 indicator (or 1 price pattern or 1 price action) and need a combination of multiple indicators before getting in a trade.
Far from being a magic pill, if it could at least reduce the stress you have while trading, then we'll consider we made a great job - it's a technical "useless noise remover", and needs to be followed strictly.
Such trust in a trading system can only be built by testing your Algorithm Builder configuration on either:
1. a demo account
2. or a live account with small bids. And then, increasing progressively the bids if your capital increases progressively.
Though, you should still use your common sense. (for instance: if we get a BUY signal right on a big timeframe resistance we're hitting for the first time).
I'm aware this is a new way of trading but for many, and while we cannot foresee the future, neither predict performance, we believe it might save you a lot of time to find good signals.
My maximum level of happiness will be reached the day when our users will contact me and showing me setups being mine.
I'm sure that even I can learn from my users and, we can all learn from each other Algorithm Builder configuration
VIII. What is a wrong or bad configuration?
Simply put. If you see that most of your signals react such as described below:
1. a buy triangle predicts, most of the time an upwards move
2. a sell triangle predicts, most of the time a downwards move
3. you estimated yourself the stop-loss needed to give enough room for your trades.
4. take profits based on algorithmic support and resistances or your own take profit method.
So what's a good Algorithm Builder configuration? A configuration you're happy with and makes sense.
A better Algorithm Builder setup is one used in demo or a live account w/ small bids for a few weeks, and you're consistent in your trading performance.
If you have any doubt or question, please hit me up directly or ask in the comments section of this script.
I'll never claim I have the best trading methodology or the best indicators. You only will be the judge, and I'll appreciate all the questions and feedback you're sending my way.
They help me a ton to develop indicators based on all the requests I received.
Kind regards,
Dave
Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ (MTF)Hello traders
I. SCRIPTS ACCESS AND TRIALS
1. For the trial request access, they have to be done through my website .
2. My website URL is in this script signature at the very bottom (you'll have to scroll down a bit and going past the long description) and in my profile status available here : Daveatt
Due to the new scripts publishing house rules, I won't mention the URL here directly. As I value my partnership with TradingView very much, I prefer showing you the way for finding them :)
3. You may also contact me directly for more information
II. Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ (MTF)
2.1 Concept
MTF means Multi Timeframes - we all agree that saying MTF is nicer and easier than multi-timeframe.
That script is an upgrade of the Single Trend:
The Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ (Multiple Timeframes/MTF) is made to detect the convergence of many unrelated indicators, and give a BUY or SELL signal whenever all the selected sub-indicators - each may be using a different timeframe - are converging in the same direction.
Now sit tight because what's going to be announced will be awesome. Are you ready for it?... :)
The MTF version allows to detect the convergence for indicators in different timeframes. Each indicator has its own timeframe - expanding, even more, your trading analysis capabilities.
In other words, you could, for instance, detects the convergence of an H1 MACD with an H2 Supertrend, and why not also adding an m30 Moving Averages cross in the mix.
The Single Trend+ MTF gives one single entry per identified trend - unlike the Multiple Trends editions (also available on my scripts page) which may give more than 1 entry per trend.
The traders select the sub-indicators they want, and see in real-time the BUY and SELL triangles being updated.
2.2 Why the Algorithm Builder Single Trend may help you

For them, it's not even about the money anymore, but only about beating their previous performance.
Why are they doing this? Because it's fun
Might appears as a bold statement, but I guarantee that looking for setups is fun.
One of our users even told us, that it's like playing with "Legos" and we couldn't possibly agree more.
V. Designing a system that "makes sense"
Another bold statement now. Brace yourselves ladies and gentlemen
The Algorithm Builders allow to design trading systems quickly. What could takes days/weeks/months to find out... might be now within your reach in less than a few hours.
With a bit of practice, less than an hour might be enough per asset/timeframe to find a system that makes sense to you and adapted to your trading capital and psychology.
Assuming our users read our guides and are fully committed to learning a new way of trading - then we do guarantee you'll be able to design kick-ass trading systems that make sense.
"Making sense" doesn't mean at all it's guaranteed to win, it means you're the one defining the convergence of indicators, using your Algorithm Builder, and observe that most of the time - whenever there is a BUY signal, the candlesticks are going upwards - whenever there is a SELL signal, it's going downwards.
This is a necessary step to make real progress from a trading analyst perspective - and hopefully could lead to profits.
VI. Algorithm Builder versus the main trader enemy(=psychology)
This indicator has the goal to help solving one of the MAIN issues encountered by traders.
Most of traders realize, they can't perform with only 1 indicator (or 1 price pattern or 1 price action) and need a combination of multiple indicators before getting in a trade.
Far from being a magic pill, if it could at least reduce the stress you have while trading, then we'll consider we made a great job - it's a technical "useless noise remover", and needs to be followed strictly.
Such trust in a trading system can only be built by testing your Algorithm Builder configuration on either:
1. a demo account
2. or a live account with small bids. And then, increasing progressively the bids if your capital increases progressively.
Though, you should still use your common sense. (for instance: if we get a BUY signal right on a big timeframe resistance we're hitting for the first time).
I'm aware this is a new way of trading but for many, and while we cannot foresee the future, neither predict performance, we believe it might save you a lot of time to find good signals.
My maximum level of happiness will be reached the day when our users will contact me and showing me setups being mine.
I'm sure that even I can learn from my users and, we can all learn from each other Algorithm Builder configuration
VII. What is a wrong or bad configuration?
Simply put. If you see that most of your signals react such as described below:
1. a buy triangle predicts, most of the time an upwards move
2. a sell triangle predicts, most of the time a downwards move
3. you estimated yourself the stop-loss needed to give enough room for your trades.
4. take profits based on algorithmic support and resistances or your own take profit method.
So what's a good Algorithm Builder configuration? A configuration you're happy with and makes sense.
A better Algorithm Builder setup is one used in demo or a live account w/ small bids for a few weeks, and you're consistent in your trading performance.
If you have any doubt or question, please hit me up directly or ask in the comments section of this script.
I'll never claim I have the best trading methodology or the best indicators. You only will be the judge, and I'll appreciate all the questions and feedback you're sending my way.
They help me a ton to develop indicators based on all the requests I received.
Kind regards,
Dave
Strategy Builder Crypto V6Hello everyone
This indicator is the result of 7 years of trading (including 3 years of analyzing day and night how crypto assets behave).
I made it fully customizable but I wouldn't recommend changing the default values as they're the most optimal ones for now. Might change in the future but I'm very happy with the signals so far and I hope you'll be as well :)
Without further due, let's dig into it...
0 - Algo trading and Why
In the crypto trading, there is a lot of useless noise (we can probably thank Crypto Twitter for that :p) and a lot of useless data with the sole purpose is to lure you (who said Bitfinex Long/Short ratio or CME gaps ??)
I wanted to remove all the useless and only focus on Technical Analysis (TA) because I was deeply convinced that TA includes by design Fundamental Analysis (FA) and Pumponomics Analysis (PA) - PA being for instance when your favorite twitter guru will pump and dump on you
I heard that so many people got REKT from the previous bear market and I wanted to give back to the community - who helped me so much a few years back.
I worked hard to design the method and make it simple for the public and for FREE (so far as I want to collect feedbacks from the community and improving the indicator)
THIS IS MY GIFT TO YOU
1 - Input values
I'll explain later on through a medium article what each parameter means and how to set them up. For now, please used the optimized and recommended values already set in the indicator
2 - The method
This method works for intraday trading for timeframes between m5 and H1. Any timeframe above could work but would give signals too late - in this case, I would recommend changing the inputs with smaller values to adjust
I see a trend being composed of a main trend, and mini sub trends. In other words, for instance, a weekly bullish trend is made of smaller H4 bullish trends. Hope it makes sense so far
Let's call the weekly trend the MAIN trend and the H4 smaller trends the SECONDARY trends
That's exactly what this indicator is about
It will catch the best MAIN trend and all the SECONDARY trends in the same direction of the MAIN trend.
It's up to you if you want to take all the SECONDARY trends or only the first one in the sequence.
3 - Invalidation signal
A signal invalidation is used to make you exiting your position with a small loss before your stop loss will get hit. Very powerful way to save your capital and limit your losses.
You'll find the indicator here on tradingview for free under the name Trend signal with Alert (made by myself)
Trend signal with Alert
to invalidate entries. You'll need to request an invite
Briefly, let's assume we get a BUY signal. I would exit the position either if I'm getting a DOWN trend signal. It means, if the oblique/logarithmic trendline is broken, then it's better to exit the position and wait for the indicator to give another BUY signal later hopefully
Best case, it will limit your loss in case the asset will dump.
Worst case, this strict management strategy will make you exiting your position for no reason and you'll re-enter later (with a signal) at almost the same price or a bit higher
In the long run, this method will prevent you from having big losses
4 - Stop Loss and Take profits levels
It's really up to you. It depends of your capital and psychology
This indicator is made to give big moves but that's not 100% guaranteed. You can draw some trendlines or use moving averages in big timeframes to set your take profit and stop loss levels.
I personally use this also, along with fibonacci on the weekly/monthly timeframes for my take profit levels
As I'm a nice person, I'm linking the Fibonacci indicator that I use here
Automatic Multi-timeframes fibonacci zones
. You'll also need to request an invite for that one
4-bis - Trailing stop
Not financial advice but I use a supertrend and I have a software that will trail my stop according to that supertrend level
For LONG positions, we could set the trailing below the supertrend.
For SHORT positions, we could set the trailing above the supertrend.
You'll find the indicator here on tradingview for free under the name Supertrend V1.0 - Buy or Sell Signal
5 - Which assets
It's working with the default values on major/mid/small caps and for ALTS/BTC, ALTS/USD and ALTS/ETH pairing
YES, THIS IS MOST AWESOME THING OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE !!!
6 - Best setup
m15 timeframe is my preferred one for this method. Best Risk/Reward/Invalidations ratio among all other timeframes
I strongly recommend to use the Trend Signal with the input value 14 for the invalidations
If you enter on a BUY signal, and get a RED trend signal, exit immediately the position without waiting for any other confirmation/pullback or anything else
If you enter on a SELL signal, and get a BLUE trend signal, exit immediately the position without waiting for any other confirmation/pullback or anything else
For the trailing stop/Supertrend value, it depends of your capital and how big your stop loss should be. I personally use the settings in the Supertrend indicator
7 - Alerts
You can setup alerts for the primary and secondary signals in Tradingview so that you won't have to stare at the charts all day long. You mental healthy is my priority above everything else :)
8 - More to come
I personally use the alerts from this indicator coupled with a system to take the trades given by the tradingview alerts. I'll publish it later on if I feel the indicator collects enough interest from you guys
Signalgo VSignalgo V: Technical Overview and Unique Aspects
Signalgo V is a technical indicator for TradingView that integrates multiple layers of analysis: moving averages, MACD, Bollinger Bands and RSI to deliver buy and sell signals. Below is an informational breakdown of how the indicator functions, its input parameters, signal logic, exit methodology, and how it stands apart from traditional moving average (MA) tools, without disclosing specifics that allow for code duplication.
How Signalgo V Works
1. Multi-Layered Technical Synthesis
Signalgo V processes several technical studies simultaneously:
Fast/Slow Moving Averages: Uses either EMA or SMA (user-selected) with adjustable periods. These are central to initial trend detection through crossovers.
MACD Filter: MACD line vs. signal line cross-check ensures trend direction is supported by both momentum and MA structure.
RSI Confirmation: The RSI is monitored to verify that signals are not excessively overbought or oversold, tuning the system to changing momentum regimes.
Bollinger Bands Context: Entry signals are only considered when price action is beyond the Bollinger Bands envelope, which further filters for unusually strong movements.
These strict, multi-indicator entry criteria are designed to ensure only the most robust signals are surfaced, each is contingent on the presence of aligned trend, momentum and volatility.
2. Exit Methodology
Take-Profit Levels: After entering a trade, the strategy automatically sets three predefined profit targets (TP1, TP2, TP3). If the price reaches any of these targets, the system marks it, helping you lock in profits at different stages.
Stop-Loss System: Simultaneously, a stop-loss (SL) value is set, protecting you from significant losses if the market moves against your position.
Dynamic Adjustment: When the first profit target (TP1) is hit, the system can automatically move the stop-loss to your entry price. This means your worst-case outcome is break-even from that point, reducing downside risk.
Trailing Stop-Loss: After TP1 is reached, a dynamic trailing stop can activate. This allows the stop-loss to follow the price as it moves in your favor, aiming to capture more profit if the trend continues, while still protecting your gains if the price reverses.
Visual Markers: The system plots all important exit levels (profit targets, stop-loss, trailing stop) directly on the chart. Optional labels also appear whenever a target or stop-loss is hit, making it easy to see progress.
Visual cues (labels) are plotted directly on the bar where a buy or sell signal triggers, clarifying entry points and aiding manual exit/risk management decisions.
Input Parameters
rsiLen: Lookback period for RSI calculation.
rsiOB and rsiOS: Overbought/oversold thresholds, adaptive to the indicator’s multi-layered logic.
maFastLen and maSlowLen: Periods for fast and slow MAs.
maType: EMA or SMA selectable for both MAs.
bbLen: Length for Bollinger Bands mean calculation.
bbMult: Standard deviation multiplier for BB width.
macdFast, macdSlow, macdSig: Standard MACD parameterization for nuanced momentum oversight.
What Separates Signalgo V from Traditional Moving Average Indicators
Composite Signal Architecture: Where traditional MA systems generate signals solely on MA crossovers, Signalgo V requires layered, cross-confirmational logic across trend (MAs), momentum (MACD), volatility (Bollinger Bands), and market strength (RSI).
Adaptive Volatility Context: MA signals only “count” when price is meaningfully breaking out of its volatility envelope, filtering out most unremarkable crosses that plague basic MA strategies.
Integrated Multi-Factor Filters: Strict compliance with all layers of signal logic is enforced. A marked improvement over MA strategies that lack secondary or tertiary confirmation.
Non-Redundant Event Limiting: Each entry is labeled as a unique event. The indicator does not repeat signals on subsequent bars unless all entry conditions are freshly met.
Trading Strategy Application
Trend Identification: By requiring concurrence among MA, MACD, RSI, and BB, this tool identifies only those trends with robust, multifactor support.
Breakout and Momentum Entry: Signals are bias-toward trades that initiate at likely breakout points (outside BB range), combined with fresh momentum and trend alignment.
Manual Discretion for Exits: The design is to empower traders with high-confidence entries and leave risk management or partial profit-taking adaptive to trader style, using visual cues from all component indicators.
Alert Generation: Each buy/sell event optionally triggers an alert, supporting systematic monitoring without constant chart watching.
ST+ TP1-TP5 + CALL/PUT 1. The Indicator's General Concept
The indicator works by:
Using the Supertrend indicator to determine when a new trend (bullish or bearish) begins.
Once a new trend is detected:
It determines the entry price.
It calculates the stop-loss (SL).
It calculates five profit levels, TP1 to TP5.
It draws horizontal lines on the chart representing the entry, SL, TP1-TP5, with labels on the right side (as shown in the image).
It can also display a CALL or PUT symbol above the signal candle.
It tracks price movement to determine if a target has been reached or if the stop-loss has been hit.
2. The Inputs That Control the Indicator
You can modify these values according to your strategy:
ATR Length → The number of candles used to calculate volatility.
Supertrend Factor → Controls the sensitivity of the supertrend. (The higher the value, the fewer the signals.)
TP1 to TP5 → ATR multipliers to set targets.
SL → ATR multiplier to set stop loss.
Extend Bars → The distance the lines extend to the right before the bar.
Show CALL/PUT → Shows or hides the trend signal.
Show TP Flags → Enables or disables small TP flags above the candles.
3. Determining the Trend
The indicator uses Supertrend to determine:
Is the market in an uptrend or a downtrend?
If the trend changes from bearish to bullish, it registers a CALL signal.
If the trend changes from bullish to bearish, it registers a PUT signal.
The first candle at which this change occurs is called a reversal candle.
4. Calculating Levels
When a reversal candle occurs:
Entry price = closing price of the candle.
Stop Loss (SL):
For an uptrend = Price - ATR × Multiplier.
For a downtrend = Price + ATR × Multiplier.
Profit Levels (TP1, TP5):
If up → Price + ATR × (multipliers).
If down → Price - ATR × (multipliers).
5. Drawing Lines and Labels
Draws horizontal lines representing:
Entry (green)
SL (red)
TP1-TP5 (blue)
Places labels on the right side of the chart, as shown in the image:
Each label shows the price level.
The label reads: "TP1: 123.45" or "Entry: 120.00", etc.
The positions of the lines and labels are updated automatically with each new candle.
6. Showing CALL and PUT Signals
If the new trend is up, a green CALL label will appear above the reversal candle.
If the new trend is down, a red PUT label will appear above the reversal candle.
7. Target Tracking and Stop Loss
The indicator tracks each candle after the signal:
If the price touches one of the targets (TP1 to TP5):
It marks this target.
It stops tracking this target so that it does not repeat the signal.
If the price touches the Stop Loss (SL):
It closes the trade and stops tracking completely.
8. Blue Flags Option
There is an additional option:
If you enable it, a small blue flag will appear above or below the candle when any target is reached.
If you disable it, you won't see these flags; you'll just see the sidebars and labels.
9. Live and Dynamic Update
The indicator uses an automatic update every minute.
Ensures that all lines and labels remain fixed at the last candlestick of the analysis.
10. Trade Lifecycle
Wait for a reversal in a supertrend.
At the first reversal → set Entry/SL/TP1..TP5.
Draw lines and labels on the chart.
Monitor price action:
If any TP is met → mark it as met.
If the SL is reached → cancel the trade.
Wait for a new signal to begin a new cycle.
Conclusion
The indicator provides you with a complete visual trading system.
Defines entry points, stop-losses, and profit targets.
Everything is displayed on the chart with clear colored lines and labels.
Keeps targets organized and prevents duplicate signals.
Can be used on any timeframe or market.
AltCoin & MemeCoin Index Correlation [Eddie_Bitcoin]🧠 Philosophy of the Strategy
The AltCoin & MemeCoin Index Correlation Strategy by Eddie_Bitcoin is a carefully engineered trend-following system built specifically for the highly volatile and sentiment-driven world of altcoins and memecoins.
This strategy recognizes that crypto markets—especially niche sectors like memecoins—are not only influenced by individual price action but also by the relative strength or weakness of their broader sector. Hence, it attempts to improve the reliability of trading signals by requiring alignment between a specific coin’s trend and its sector-wide index trend.
Rather than treating each crypto asset in isolation, this strategy dynamically incorporates real-time dominance metrics from custom indices (OTHERS.D and MEME.D) and combines them with local price action through dual exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers. Only when both the asset and its sector are moving in the same direction does it allow for trade entries—making it a confluence-based system rather than a single-signal strategy.
It supports risk-aware capital allocation, partial exits, configurable stop loss and take profit levels, and a scalable equity-compounding model.
✅ Why did I choose OTHERS.D and MEME.D as reference indices?
I selected OTHERS.D and MEME.D because they offer a sector-focused view of crypto market dynamics, especially relevant when trading altcoins and memecoins.
🔹 OTHERS.D tracks the market dominance of all cryptocurrencies outside the top 10 by market cap.
This excludes not only BTC and ETH, but also major stablecoins like USDT and USDC, making it a cleaner indicator of risk appetite across true altcoins.
🔹 This is particularly useful for detecting "Altcoin Season"—periods where capital rotates away from Bitcoin and flows into smaller-cap coins.
A rising OTHERS.D often signals the start of broader altcoin rallies.
🔹 MEME.D, on the other hand, captures the speculative behavior of memecoin segments, which are often driven by retail hype and social media activity.
It's perfect for timing momentum shifts in high-risk, high-reward tokens.
By using these indices, the strategy aligns entries with broader sector trends, filtering out noise and increasing the probability of catching true directional moves, especially in phases of capital rotation and altcoin risk-on behavior.
📐 How It Works — Core Logic and Execution Model
At its heart, this strategy employs dual EMA crossover detection—one pair for the asset being traded and one pair for the selected market index.
A trade is only executed when both EMA crossovers agree on the direction. For example:
Long Entry: Coin's fast EMA > slow EMA and Index's fast EMA > slow EMA
Short Entry: Coin's fast EMA < slow EMA and Index's fast EMA < slow EMA
You can disable the index filter and trade solely based on the asset’s trend just to make a comparison and see if improves a classic EMA crossover strategy.
Additionally, the strategy includes:
- Adaptive position sizing, based on fixed capital or current equity (compound mode)
- Take Profit and Stop Loss in percentage terms
- Smart partial exits when trend momentum fades
- Date filtering for precise backtesting over specific timeframes
- Real-time performance stats, equity tracking, and visual cues on chart
⚙️ Parameters & Customization
🔁 EMA Settings
Each EMA pair is customizable:
Coin Fast EMA: Default = 47
Coin Slow EMA: Default = 50
Index Fast EMA: Default = 47
Index Slow EMA: Default = 50
These control the sensitivity of the trend detection. A wider spread gives smoother, slower entries; a narrower spread makes it more responsive.
🧭 Index Reference
The correlation mechanism uses CryptoCap sector dominance indexes:
OTHERS.D: Dominance of all coins EXCLUDING Top 10 ones
MEME.D: Dominance of all Meme coins
These are dynamically calculated using:
OTHERS_D = OTHERS_cap / TOTAL_cap * 100
MEME_D = MEME_cap / TOTAL_cap * 100
You can select:
Reference Index: OTHERS.D or MEME.D
Or disable the index reference completely (Don't Use Index Reference)
💰 Position Sizing & Risk Management
Two capital allocation models are supported:
- Fixed % of initial capital (default)
- Compound profits, which scales positions as equity grows
Settings:
- Compound profits?: true/false
- % of equity: Between 1% and 200% (default = 10%)
This is critical for users who want to balance growth with risk.
🎯 Take Profit / Stop Loss
Customizable thresholds determine automatic exits:
- TakeProfit: Default = 99999 (disabled)
- StopLoss: Default = 5 (%)
These exits are percentage-based and operate off the entry price vs. current close.
📉 Trend Weakening Exit (Scale Out)
If the position is in profit but the trend weakens (e.g., EMA color signals trend loss), the strategy can partially close a configurable portion of the position:
- Scale Position on Weak Trend?: true/false
- Scaled Percentage: % to close (default = 65%)
This feature is useful for preserving profits without exiting completely.
📆 Date Filter
Useful for segmenting performance over specific timeframes (e.g., bull vs bear markets):
- Filter Date Range of Backtest: ON/OFF
- Start Date and End Date: Custom time range
OTHER PARAMETERS EXPLANATION (Strategy "Properties" Tab):
- Initial Capital is set to 100 USD
- Commission is set to 0.055% (The ones I have on Bybit)
- Slippage is set to 3 ticks
- Margin (short and long) are set to 0.001% to avoid "overspending" your initial capital allocation
📊 Visual Feedback and Debug Tools
📈 EMA Trend Visualization
The slow EMA line is dynamically color-coded to visually display the alignment between the asset trend and the index trend:
Lime: Coin and index both bullish
Teal: Only coin bullish
Maroon: Only index bullish
Red: Both bearish
This allows for immediate visual confirmation of current trend strength.
💬 Real-Time PnL Labels
When a trade closes, a label shows:
Previous trade return in % (first value is the effective PL)
Green background for profit, Red for losses.
📑 Summary Table Overlay
This table appears in a corner of the chart (user-defined) and shows live performance data including:
Trade direction (yellow long, purple short)
Emojis: 💚 for current profit, 😡 for current loss
Total number of trades
Win rate
Max drawdown
Duration in days
Current trade profit/loss (absolute and %)
Cumulative PnL (absolute and %)
APR (Annualized Percentage Return)
Each metric is color-coded:
Green for strong results
Yellow/orange for average
Red/maroon for poor performance
You can select where this appears:
Top Left
Top Right
Bottom Left
Bottom Right (default)
📚 Interpretation of Key Metrics
Equity Multiplier: How many times initial capital has grown (e.g., “1.75x”)
Net Profit: Total gains including open positions
Max Drawdown: Largest peak-to-valley drop in strategy equity
APR: Annualized return calculated based on equity growth and days elapsed
Win Rate: % of profitable trades
PnL %: Percentage profit on the most recent trade
🧠 Advanced Logic & Safety Features
🛑 “Don’t Re-Enter” Filter
If a trade is closed due to StopLoss without a confirmed reversal, the strategy avoids re-entering in that same direction until conditions improve. This prevents false reversals and repetitive losses in sideways markets.
🧷 Equity Protection
No new trades are initiated if equity falls below initial_capital / 30. This avoids overleveraging or continuing to trade when capital preservation is critical.
Keep in mind that past results in no way guarantee future performance.

Pineify Signals and OverlaysIndicator Theoretical Basis
Pineify Signals and Overlays is an invite-only trend-following and reversal-detection toolkit that fuses four well-known concepts— Dow-Theory trend phases , a multi-pair EMA cloud, QQE momentum, and ATR-based risk management—into a single, weight-balanced engine. An optional multi-time-frame (MTF) filter aligns lower-time-frame signals with higher-time-frame structure, helping traders avoid counter-trend setups. All components can be toggled from the settings panel, and a beginner “One-Click” preset loads a conservative profile out of the box.
Why it’s a single script: The algorithm scores every bar on three orthogonal axes—trend, momentum, and volatility—then issues context-aware arrows and coloured clouds only when the axes agree within user-defined tolerances. This inter-locking logic cannot be reproduced by simply stacking independent indicators on a chart, hence the need for an integrated implementation.
Trend Confirmation
Trend Confirmation: This indicator presents two types of market trends: the primary trend and the secondary trend. The primary trend is the long - term direction of the market and can last for days or months; the secondary trend is the adjustment phase within the primary trend.
This indicator uses the EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and visualizes the trend phases through color filling. The judgment of the trend is that blue plus green indicates a bullish trend, and yellow plus red indicates a bearish trend.
The primary trend of this indicator is visualized by two sets of moving averages through color filling. These two sets of moving averages are used to describe the short - term and long - term trends in the market.
The short - period moving averages and the long - period moving averages each consist of 4 moving averages, with a total of 8 moving averages, representing the short - term fluctuations and trends of the market.
Trend Persistence: Once the primary trend is formed, it will persist for a period of time. This indicator judges based on the Dow Theory. Short - term market fluctuations do not necessarily reflect changes in the primary trend. Therefore, the judgment direction of the primary trend is visualized through color.
The Signals of Buying, Selling and Closing
In the primary trend, we can see signals of trend reversal. This indicator incorporates the "Consecutive Candles". The indicator mainly identifies the overbought or oversold state of the market through a series of consecutive conditions, so as to predict the reversal point. The core of this indicator is to identify a series of consecutive price movements in the market trend and determine whether the market is about to reverse based on this sequence. We visualize the turning points through buy and sell signals.
The trend confirmation system utilizes four pairs of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) creating dynamic cloud formations that visualize market direction. Short-period EMAs (5, 8, 20, 34) interact with longer-period EMAs (9, 13, 21, 50) to generate color-coded trend clouds . Blue and green clouds indicate bullish conditions, while yellow and red clouds signal bearish trends, providing immediate visual trend identification.
The presentation of buying and selling points, namely "Quantitative Qualitative Estimation", is a technical indicator that combines the concepts of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and moving averages. It is used to evaluate market trends, overbought and oversold conditions, as well as potential trend reversal points. The oscillator has a relatively long smoothing period, making the indicator relatively stable, thus enabling the visualization of buy + and sell + signals for trading.
ATR Stop - Loss Line
ATR (Average True Range) is an indicator for measuring market volatility. By using the ATR value to set the stop - loss distance, the stop - loss level can be automatically adjusted according to market volatility, making the stop - loss more flexible.
Core principle
Trend-Cloud Engine
EMA Pairs (5, 8, 20, 34 vs 9, 13, 21, 50)—Two four-EMA sets form “fast” and “slow” envelopes. When the volume-weighted mean of the fast set sits above the slow set and both slopes are positive, the bar is tagged primary bullish; the inverse tags primary bearish. Cloud colours (blue/green vs yellow/red) mirror Dow Theory’s primary/secondary trend hierarchy.
Momentum & Exhaustion Layer
QQE Oscillator (RSI 14, factor 4.238) detects momentum extremes and smooths noise more than a raw RSI, making it better suited for multi-time-frame use.
Consecutive-Candle Counter (default 8) highlights potential exhaustion after extended unidirectional moves; reversal symbols appear only if QQE divergence also exists.
Volatility-Adjusted Risk Line
ATR Trailing Stop (ATR 21, dynamic multiplier) expands in high volatility and tightens in low volatility, offering an adaptive exit reference rather than a fixed-tick stop.
Multi-Time-Frame Confirmation
The script automatically chooses a higher aggregation (e.g., 4 × the chart timeframe) and requires primary-trend agreement before issuing “Long ▲+” or “Short ▼+” confirmations. This guards against false signals during counter-trend rebounds.
Recommended parameters
RSI Length: 14 (QQE calculation base)
QQE Factor: 4.238 (Fibonacci-based multiplier)
ATR Period: 21 (volatility measurement)
EMA Lengths: Configurable short (5,8,20,34) and long (9,13,21,50) periods
Consecutive Candles: Selectable count (8)
Multi-timeframe Filter: Filter is enabled by default, resulting in more accurate signals.
Filters
The multi-timeframe filter enhances signal reliability by confirming trends across higher timeframes. This prevents counter-trend trades by ensuring alignment between current chart timeframe and broader market direction. The filter automatically calculates appropriate higher timeframes for trend confirmation.
Signals & Alerts
The indicator system exports multiple alert signals, and you can easily alert for any signal.
Up Trend : Primary long signal appears
Long - ▲ : Buy signal appears
Long - ▲+ : Confirmation buy signal appears
Long - ● : Primary reversal signal appears
Long - ☓ : Secondary reversal signal appears
Down Trend : Primary short signal appears
Short - ▼ : Sell signal appears
Short - ▼+ : Confirmation sell signal appears
Short - ● : Primary reversal signal appears
Short - ☓ : Secondary reversal signal appears
Originality & Value for Traders
Integrated scoring logic ensures signals fire only when trend, momentum, and volatility metrics corroborate, reducing “indicator conflict”.
Auto-computed MTF pairs mean no manual timeframe juggling.
Weight-balanced QQE/EMA blend creates smoother trend clouds than standard MA crosses, yet remains more responsive than Keltner or Donchian approaches.
One-click beginner profile plus full parameter access supports both novice and advanced users.

Palgo Trading - Palgo🎯THE PALGO INDICATOR
The "Palgo Trading - Palgo" indicator, developed by PALGOTRADING is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify potential buy and sell signals by combining trend analysis with momentum and optional AI-driven sentiment assessment. This indicator provides a clear visual representation of potential trading opportunities directly on the price chart.
At its core, the Palgo indicator synthesizes information from well-established technical analysis concepts with statistical functions, and has optional AI Integration for social analysis of the asset using external data :
Supertrend: This indicator identifies the prevailing trend direction. A positive Supertrend value suggests an upward trend, while a negative value indicates a downward trend. The Palgo indicator utilizes a Supertrend with a customizable multiplier and a user-configurable Average True Range (ATR) length (defaulting to 21).
🛜Signal Generation Logic
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on a calculated "final direction" value. This value is derived by combining the Supertrend direction and a modified RSI. The modification involves scaling the RSI output to a range of -0.5 to 0.5 and then further adjusting it.
The buy and sell conditions are as follows:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is triggered when the "final direction" crosses above a positive activation threshold while the current signal is not already bullish. Upon signal generation, a "Buy" label (colored green) appears below the bar, and initial Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels are calculated and stored.
Sell Signal: Conversely, a sell signal is triggered when the "final direction" crosses below a negative activation threshold while the current signal is not already bearish. A "Sell" label (colored red) is plotted above the bar, and corresponding TP and SL levels are determined.
✅ Optimized Take-Profit / Stop-Loss
The Take-Profit (TP) & Stop-Loss (SL) signals are optimized with Kernel Density Estimation (KDE), the script uses KDE activated by gaussian function on previous pivot points and trains the model, then tries to estimate new pivot points early, to determine new TP / SL levels for the current signal. Kernel Density Estimation takes values of the previous confirmed pivots' RSI values, body size & more factors to determine their role. This indicator can generate up to 5 TP signals per signal.
📈 Signal Trail
Palgo also includes a "Signal Trail" that visually shows the market's momentum. This trail is like a dynamic line that follows the price.
When the market is in an uptrend and looking strong, you'll see a green trail.
When it's in a downtrend and looking weak, you'll see a red trail.
This trail helps you see if the market is currently aligned with Palgo's bullish (buy) or bearish (sell) signal. It also acts as a visual guide for potential support or resistance levels.
📊Backtesting Dashboard
The Palgo indicator includes an optional Backtesting Dashboard to help you understand its historical performance. This dashboard appears directly on your chart and provides a quick summary of how the indicator's signals have performed in the past.
Here's what you'll see on the dashboard:
Sensitivity: This shows the specific "Sensitivity" setting you've chosen for the indicator. This setting influences how often signals are generated.
Wins: This number tells you how many trades initiated by the Palgo indicator historically ended in profit (reached a Take-Profit target or closed profitably when the signal reversed).
Loss: This number indicates how many trades historically ended in a loss (hit the Stop-Loss).
Winrate: This is a very important metric, displayed as a percentage. It shows you the proportion of winning trades compared to the total number of trades (Wins / (Wins + Loss)). A higher winrate generally suggests a more effective strategy.
This dashboard is a valuable tool for reviewing the indicator's effectiveness with different settings and helping you make informed decisions about its use in your trading.
🤖AI Integration (Optional):
A unique feature of the Palgo indicator is the optional integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) sentiment analysis. When the "Use AI" input is enabled, the indicator incorporates two additional user-defined inputs:
Impression Change %: This input represents the percentage change in overall market sentiment as assessed by an external AI.
Positivity Change: This input reflects the change in positive sentiment, also provided by an AI.
These AI inputs are combined to create an "AI Score," which then influences the "final direction" calculation. A positive AI Score amplifies the bullish signals and dampens bearish signals, while a negative AI Score has the opposite effect.
❓Why PALGO ?
All-in-One Analysis: Palgo combines trend, momentum, and advanced statistical analysis into one easy-to-use tool, giving you a complete picture without needing multiple indicators.
Dynamic Profit & Loss Management: Unlike many tools with fixed targets, Palgo's smart profit and stop-loss system adapts to the market using KDE. This helps you potentially capture more gains and limit losses effectively.
Optional AI Insights: For an extra edge, Palgo can tap into Artificial Intelligence (AI) to gauge overall market mood. If the AI sees a lot of positive buzz, it can strengthen buy signals; if it's negative, it can reinforce sell signals. This helps you trade with a better understanding of the market's pulse.
Clear and Customizable: Palgo is designed to be very visual. It changes the color of the price bars, adds clear "Buy" or "Sell" labels, and marks your profit and stop-loss points. You can also change the colors to suit your preference.
Palgo aims to be a comprehensive and adaptable trading tool, giving you clearer insights.
⚙️Visualizations and Customization
The Palgo indicator offers several visual cues to aid traders:
Bar Coloring: The price bars are colored green when the indicator identifies a bullish signal and red during a bearish signal.
Signal Labels: Clear "Buy" and "Sell" labels are plotted at the signal generation points.
Take Profit and Stop Loss Markers: Distinct shapes and labels indicate when the price reaches the calculated TP and SL levels.
Style Options: Users can customize the colors for bullish and bearish bars, text, and TP/SL markers within the indicator's settings.

Head & Shoulders Pattern (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Head & Shoulders Pattern (Zeiierman) is an advanced pattern recognition tool that automatically detects and visualizes one of the most powerful reversal patterns in technical analysis — the classic Head & Shoulders and Inverse Head & Shoulders formations .
This indicator brings structure clarity directly onto the price chart, allowing traders to instantly spot potential major reversal zones without manually drawing or searching for patterns.
It doesn't just draw lines — it intelligently scans price action for symmetry, pivot behavior, and neckline structures — then projects realistic price targets based on the pattern's height.
⚪ In simple terms:
▸ Standard Head & Shoulders → Bearish Reversal Pattern
▸ Inverse Head & Shoulders → Bullish Reversal Pattern
▸ Target Projection → Estimated Move from Neckline Break
▸ Labels → Clear annotation of Left Shoulder, Head, and Right Shoulder
█ How It Works
The indicator combines multiple technical detection layers into a clean visual model:
⚪ Dynamic Pivot Engine
Automatically detects pivot highs and lows based on user-defined Period.
Longer Period = Broader, higher-confidence patterns
Shorter Period = Smaller, more frequent patterns
⚪ Pattern Detection Logic
Scans pivot structures in real-time to identify valid:
Bearish Head & Shoulders (H&S)
Bullish Inverse Head & Shoulders (iH&S)
Conditions include:
▸ Symmetry validation
▸ Head above (or below) Shoulders
▸ Neckline structure
▸ Minimum price conditions met
█ How to Use
⚪ Reversal Trading
Look for Head & Shoulders at the top of an uptrend
Look for Inverse Head & Shoulders at the bottom of a downtrend
⚪ What makes our tool truly unique is that it goes beyond the traditional textbook definition.
Our custom Head & Shoulders algorithm is built with flexibility and adaptability in mind. It dynamically responds to real-time price action, allowing it to detect valid patterns not only at major trend reversals — but also within trending environments.
That means you can spot Head & Shoulders formations at:
Consolidation zones
Trend continuation areas
Corrective phases within established trends
It doesn’t have to be the absolute top or bottom of a move — and that’s the real power of this tool. It adapts. It evolves. It finds structure where most indicators stay blind.
█ Common Real-World Stop Loss Strategies with Head & Shoulders Patterns
Not all Head & Shoulders patterns are created equal — and neither are the stop loss strategies used to trade them.
Depending on your trading style, risk tolerance, and market context — here are the 3 most common ways traders manage stop placement when trading Head & Shoulders (H&S) or Inverse Head & Shoulders (iH&S) patterns:
⚪ Conservative Stop Placement
Maximum Safety — Minimum Chance of Being Stopped Prematurely
Stop Placement:
Above the Head (Bearish H&S)
Below the Head (Bullish iH&S)
Pros: Safest approach. Provides maximum protection against false breakouts and noise.
Cons: Often results in very large stop losses, especially on bigger patterns or higher timeframes. Risk-to-Reward (RR) can be poor unless the target is far.
⚪ Aggressive Stop Placement
Tighter Risk — Faster Invalidations
Stop Placement:
Above the Right Shoulder (Bearish H&S)
Below the Right Shoulder (Bullish iH&S)
Pros: Smaller stop losses. Improved RR. Ideal for traders who want tighter control over risk.
Cons: Higher chance of getting stopped on retests or minor volatility around the neckline zone.
⚪ Neckline Reclaim Invalidation
Dynamic & Price-Action Based Exit
Stop Placement:
Exit the trade if price closes back above (bearish) or below (bullish) the neckline after breaking it.
Pros: Dynamic approach based on market behavior rather than static levels. Allows more flexibility.
Cons: Requires active trade management. Not suitable for fully automated or set-and-forget trading styles.
█ Why It's Useful
This is not a basic pattern drawing tool — it's a complete detection system built for traders who want to:
Automatically detect powerful reversal patterns
Avoid the subjectivity of manually drawing H&S structures
Trade with clear target projections
Identify high-probability reversal zones
Visually map structure shifts in real-time

Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Zones V6 (Table)Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Zones V6 (Table) Indicator: Functionality and Uses
Overview: The Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Zones V6 (Table) indicator is a technical analysis tool that highlights key volume-based support and resistance levels across multiple timeframes. It leverages volume profile concepts – specifically the Point of Control (POC) and Value Area High/Low (VAH/VAL) – to identify “liquidity zones” where trading activity was heaviest . Unlike a standard single-timeframe volume profile, this indicator compiles data from several timeframes (e.g. monthly, weekly, daily, intraday) and displays the results in a convenient table format on the chart. The goal is to give traders a consolidated view of important price levels (derived from volume concentrations) across different horizons, helping them plan trades with a broader market perspective.
Purpose and Functionality of the Indicator
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: The primary objective of this indicator is to simplify multi-timeframe analysis of volume distribution. Rather than manually checking volume profiles on separate charts for each timeframe, the tool automatically calculates the key levels for each selected timeframe and presents them together. This includes higher-level perspectives (like monthly or weekly volume hotspots) alongside shorter-term levels (daily or hourly), ensuring that traders don’t miss significant zones from any timeframe . By offering a broader perspective on support and resistance levels, multi-timeframe tools help improve risk management and signal confirmation , and this indicator is designed to provide that volume-based perspective at a glance.
Table Format Display: Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Zones V6 (Table) specifically presents the information as a table (as opposed to plotting lines on the chart). Each row in the table typically corresponds to a timeframe (for example, Monthly, Weekly, Daily, 4H, 1H, 30M, 15M), and the columns list the calculated POC, VAH, VAL, and possibly the average volume for that timeframe’s look-back period. By structuring the data in a table, traders can quickly read off the exact price levels of these liquidity zones without having to visually trace lines. This format makes it easy to compare levels across timeframes or note where multiple timeframes’ levels cluster near the same price – a sign of especially strong support/resistance. The indicator uses a user-defined number of bars or length of history for each timeframe to calculate these values (so you can adjust how far back it looks to define the volume profile for each period).
Objective: In summary, the functionality is geared toward identifying high-liquidity price zones across multiple time scales and presenting them clearly. These high-liquidity zones often coincide with areas where price reacts (stalls, reverses, or accelerates) because a lot of trading activity (hence, orders and volume) took place there in the past. The indicator’s objective is to alert the trader to those areas in advance. It effectively answers questions like: “Where are the major volume concentration levels on the 1-hour, daily, and weekly charts right now?” and “Are there overlapping volume-based support/resistance levels from different timeframes around the current price?” By compiling this information, the indicator helps traders incorporate context from multiple timeframes in their decision-making, without needing to flip through numerous charts.
Identifying Liquidity Zones with POC, VAH, and VAL
Liquidity Zones Defined: In market terms, a “liquidity zone” is an area of the chart where a significant amount of trading occurred, meaning high liquidity (many buyers and sellers exchanged volume there). These zones often act as support or resistance because past heavy trading indicates consensus or interest around those price levels. This indicator identifies liquidity zones through volume profile analysis on each timeframe’s recent price action. Essentially, it looks at the distribution of trading volume at different prices over the specified period and finds the value area – the range of prices that encompassed the majority of that volume (commonly around 70% of the total volume ). Within that value area, it pinpoints the Point of Control (POC), which is the single price level that had the highest traded volume (the peak of the volume profile) . The upper and lower boundaries of that high-volume range are marked as Value Area High (VAH) and Value Area Low (VAL) respectively . Together, the VAH and VAL define the liquidity zone where the market spent most of its time and volume, and POC highlights the most traded price in that zone.
• Point of Control (POC): The POC is the price level with the greatest volume traded for the given period. It represents the price at which the most liquidity was exchanged – effectively the market’s “center of gravity” for that timeframe’s trading activity . The indicator calculates the POC for each selected timeframe by scanning the volume at each price; the price with maximum volume is flagged as that timeframe’s POC. In the table, the POC might be highlighted or listed as a key level (sometimes traders color-code it or mark it for emphasis). Because so many positions were opened or closed at the POC, it often serves as a strong support/resistance. For example, if price falls to a major POC from above, traders expect buyers may step in there (since it was a popular buy/sell level historically), potentially causing a bounce. Conversely, if price breaks through a POC decisively, it may signal a significant shift in market acceptance.
• Value Area High (VAH) and Low (VAL): The VAH and VAL are the price boundaries of the value area, which is typically defined to contain about 70% of the total traded volume for the period . In other words, between VAH and VAL is where the “bulk” of trading occurred, and outside this range is where relatively less volume traded. The indicator derives VAH/VAL by accumulating volume from the highest-volume price (POC) outward until ~70% of volume is covered (this is a common method for volume profile value area). VAH is the top of this high-volume region and VAL is the bottom. These levels are important because they often act like support/resistance boundaries: when price is inside the value area, it’s in a high-liquidity zone and tends to oscillate between VAH and VAL; when price moves above VAH or below VAL, it’s leaving the high-volume zone, which can indicate a potential trend or imbalance (price entering a lower-liquidity area where it might move faster until finding the next liquidity zone). Traders watch VAH/VAL for signs of rejection or acceptance: for instance, a price rally that falters at VAH suggests that level is acting as resistance (sellers defending that high-volume area), whereas if price pushes above VAH, it may continue until the next timeframe’s zone or until it finds new interest. The Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Zones V6 indicator gives the VAH and VAL for each timeframe, essentially mapping out the upper and lower bounds of key liquidity zones at those scales.
How the Indicator Identifies These: Under the hood, the indicator likely uses historical price and volume data for each timeframe’s lookback window. For each timeframe (say the last 20 weekly bars for a weekly profile, last 100 daily bars for a daily profile, etc.), it constructs a volume profile (a histogram of volume at each price). From that distribution, it finds the POC (highest volume bin) and calculates VAH/VAL around it. The output is a set of numbers (price levels) that mark where those zones lie. In practice, if using the Lines version of this indicator, those levels are drawn as horizontal lines on the chart and labeled by timeframe (e.g., a line at 1.2345 labeled “D POC” for Daily POC) . In the Table version, those values are instead listed in text form. Either way, the identification process is the same – it’s finding the high-volume price regions on each timeframe and calling them out. By doing this for multiple timeframes concurrently, the indicator reveals how these liquidity zones from different periods relate to each other. For example, you might discover that a daily-chart value area overlaps with a weekly-chart POC, creating a particularly strong zone of interest. This kind of insight is hard to get from a single timeframe analysis alone.
Volume Profile Data Across Multiple Timeframes
Multiple Timeframes in One View: One of the biggest advantages of this indicator is the ability to see volume profile information from various timeframes side by side. Traders often perform multiple timeframe analysis to get a fuller picture — for instance, checking monthly or weekly levels for long-term context while planning a trade on a 4-hour chart. This indicator automates that process for volume-based levels. The table will typically list each chosen timeframe (which could be preset or user-selected). For each timeframe, you get the POC, VAH, VAL, and possibly an average volume metric. The “average volume” likely refers to the average volume per bar or the average volume traded over the profile’s duration for that timeframe, which gives a sense of how significant that period’s activity is. For example, a weekly profile might show an average volume of say 500k per week, versus a daily profile average of 80k per day – indicating the scale of trading on weekly vs daily. High average volume on a timeframe means its liquidity zones were formed with a lot of participation, possibly making them more reliable support/resistance. By comparing these, traders can gauge which timeframes had unusually high or low activity recently. The table format makes such comparisons straightforward.
Identification of Confluence: Because all the data is presented together, traders can quickly spot confluence or overlaps between timeframes. If two different timeframes show liquidity zones at similar price levels, that price becomes extremely noteworthy. For instance, suppose the indicator shows: a 1-hour POC at 1.1300, a 4-hour VAL at 1.1280, and a daily VAL at 1.1290. These are all in a tight range – effectively indicating a multi-timeframe liquidity zone around 1.1280–1.1300. A trader seeing this cluster in the table will recognize that as a strong support area, since multiple profiles from intraday to daily all suggest heavy trading interest there. Similarly, overlaps of VAH (resistance zone) from different timeframes could signal a strong ceiling. The multi-timeframe view prevents a trader from, say, going long into a major weekly POC above, or shorting when there’s a huge monthly value-area low just below – situations where awareness of higher timeframe volume structure can make the difference between a good and bad trade.
User Customization: The indicator is flexible in that you can typically adjust which timeframes to include and how many bars to use for each timeframe’s calculation. For example, one might configure it to calculate monthly levels using the past 12 monthly bars (1 year of data), weekly levels using the past 20 weeks, daily using 100 days, etc., depending on preference. By tuning the “bars count” or period length , the trader can focus on recent liquidity zones or incorporate more history if desired. Shorter lookback might catch more recent shifts in volume distribution (important if the market structure changed recently), while longer lookback gives more established levels. This customization ensures the indicator’s output can be tailored to different trading styles (short-term vs swing vs long-term investing). Regardless of settings, the multi-timeframe table allows simultaneous visibility of the chosen timeframes’ volume landscape. This comprehensive view is the core strength: it consolidates data that normally requires flipping through multiple charts.
Using the Liquidity Zones Data for Trading Decisions
Traders can use the information from the MTF Liquidity Zones V6 (Table) indicator in several practical ways to enhance their decision-making:
• Identify Support and Resistance: Each liquidity zone acts as a potential support or resistance area. For example, if the table shows a daily VAH at a certain level above the current price, that level might serve as resistance if the price rallies up to it (since it marks the top of a high-volume region where sellers might step in). Conversely, a weekly VAL below current price could act as support on a dip. By noting these levels in the table, a trader planning an entry or exit can anticipate where the price might stall or reverse. Essentially, you get a map of high-interest price levels from different timeframes, which you can mark on your trading chart for guidance.
• Plan Entries and Exits Around Key Levels: Many traders incorporate volume profile levels into their strategies, for instance: buying near VAL (betting that the value area will hold and price will revert upward), or selling/shorting near VAH (expecting the top of value to hold as resistance), or trading breakouts when price moves outside the value area. With the multi-timeframe table, one can refine these tactics by also considering higher timeframe levels. Suppose you see that on the 1-hour chart the price is just above its 1H POC, but the table indicates that just slightly above, there’s also the daily POC. You might delay a long entry until price clears that daily POC, because that could be a stronger intraday barrier. Or if you intend to take profit on a long trade, you might choose a target just below a weekly VAH since price may struggle to climb past that on the first attempt. The indicator thus acts as a guide for precision in entry/exit decisions, aligning them with where liquidity is high.
• Gauge Trend Strength and Directional Bias: By observing where current price is relative to these volume zones, traders can infer certain market conditions. For instance, if price is trading above the VAH of multiple timeframes’ value areas, it suggests the market is in a more bullish or overextended territory (price accepted above prior value), whereas if price is below multiple VALs, it’s in bearish or undervalued territory relative to recent history. If the price stays around a POC, it indicates consolidation or equilibrium (market comfortable at that price). Traders can use this context for bias – e.g., if price is above the weekly VAH, you might lean bullish but watch for potential pullbacks to that VAH level (now a support). If price is below the monthly VAL, you might avoid longs until it re-enters that value area. In essence, the liquidity zones provide context of value vs. price: is price trading within the high-volume areas (implying range-bound behavior) or outside them (implying a breakout or trending move)? This can prevent chasing trades at poor locations.
• Combine with Other Indicators/Analysis: It’s generally advised to not use any single indicator in isolation, and this holds true here. The liquidity zones from this indicator are best used alongside price action or other technical signals for confirmation . For example, if a bullish candlestick reversal pattern forms right at a confluence of a 4H VAL and Daily POC, that’s a stronger buy signal than the pattern alone. Or if an oscillator shows overbought exactly as price hits a weekly VAH, it adds conviction to a possible short. The indicator’s table basically gives you a shortlist of critical price levels; you can then watch how price behaves at those levels (via candlesticks, order flow, etc.) to make the final trade decision. Traders might set alerts for when price approaches one of the listed levels, or they might drop down to a lower timeframe to fine-tune an entry once a key zone is reached. By integrating this volume-based insight with trend analysis, chart patterns, or momentum indicators, one can make more informed and high-probability decisions rather than trading in the dark.
• Risk Management and Stop Placement: High-liquidity zones can also inform stop-loss placement. Ideally, you want your stop on the other side of a strong support/resistance. If you go long near a VAL, you might place your stop just below the VAL (since a move beyond that suggests the high-volume zone didn’t hold). If you short near a VAH, a stop just above the VAH or POC could be logical. Moreover, if multiple timeframes show overlapping zones, a stop beyond all of them could be even safer (albeit at the cost of a wider stop). The indicator helps identify those spots. It also warns you of where not to put a stop – for example, placing a stop-loss right at a POC might be unwise because price could gravitate to that POC repeatedly (due to its magnetic effect as a high-volume price). Instead, a trader might choose a stop beyond the far side of the value area. By using the table’s information, you can align your risk management with areas of high liquidity, reducing the chance of being whipsawed by normal volatility around heavily traded levels .
Benefits of the Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Zones Indicator
Using the Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Zones V6 (Table) indicator offers several key benefits for traders, ultimately aiming to streamline analysis and improve decision quality:
• Consolidated Key Levels: It provides a clear, consolidated view of crucial volume-driven levels from multiple timeframes all at once . This saves time and ensures you always account for major support/resistance zones that come from higher or lower timeframe volume clusters. You won’t accidentally overlook a significant weekly level while focused on a 15-minute chart, for example.
• Enhanced Multi-Timeframe Insight: By aligning information from long-term and short-term periods, the indicator helps traders see the “bigger picture” while still operating on their preferred timeframe. This multi-scale awareness can improve trade timing and confidence. You’re effectively doing multi-timeframe analysis with volume profiles in an efficient manner, which can confirm or caution your trade ideas (e.g., a trend looks strong on the 1H, but the table shows a huge monthly VAH just overhead – a reason to be cautious or take profit early).
• Improved Decision Making and Precision: Knowing where liquidity zones lie allows for more precise entries, exits, and stop placements. Traders can make informed decisions such as waiting for a pullback to a value area before entering, or taking profits before price hits a major POC from a higher timeframe. These decisions are grounded in objectively important price levels, potentially leading to higher probability trades and better risk-reward setups. It essentially enhances your strategy by adding a layer of volume context – you’re trading with an awareness of where the market’s interest is heaviest.
• Volume-Based Confirmation: Price alone can sometimes be deceptive, but volume tells the true story of participation. The liquidity zones indicator provides volume-based confirmation of support/resistance. If a price level is identified by this tool, it’s because significant volume happened there – adding weight to that level’s importance. This can help filter out false support/resistance levels that aren’t backed by volume. In other words, it highlights high-quality levels that many traders (and possibly institutions) have shown interest in.
• Adaptable to Different Trading Styles: Whether one is a scalper looking at intraday (15M, 5M charts) or a swing trader focusing on daily/weekly, the indicator can be configured to those needs. You choose which timeframes and how much data to consider. This means the concept of liquidity zones can be applied universally – from spotting intraday pivot levels with volume, to seeing long-term value zones on an investment. The consistent methodology of POC/VAH/VAL across scales provides a common framework to analyze any market and timeframe.
• Informed Risk Management: As discussed, the knowledge of multi-timeframe volume zones aids in risk management. By placing stops beyond major liquidity areas or avoiding trades that run into strong volume walls, traders can reduce the likelihood of whipsaw losses. It’s an extra layer of defense to ensure your trade plan accounts for where the market has historically found lots of interest (hence likely friction). This level of informed planning can be the difference between a well-managed trade and an avoidable loss.
In conclusion, the Multi-Timeframe Liquidity Zones V6 (Table) indicator serves as a powerful analytical aid, giving traders a structured view of where price is likely to encounter support or resistance based on volume concentrations across timeframes. Its functionality centers on identifying those liquidity zones (via POC, VAH, VAL) and presenting them in an easy-to-read format, while its ultimate purpose is to help traders make more informed decisions. By integrating this tool into their workflow, traders can more confidently navigate price action, knowing the objective volume-based landmarks that lie ahead. Remember that while these volume levels often coincide with strong S/R zones, it’s best to use them in conjunction with other technical or fundamental analysis for confirmation . When used appropriately, the indicator can streamline multi-timeframe analysis and enhance your overall trading strategy , giving you an edge in identifying where the market’s liquidity (and opportunity) resides.
