PTS Pi-Osc V1
The PTS - Pi-Osc know as Precision Index Oscillator by Roger Medcalf - Precision Trading Systems.
How does the Pi-Osc work?
Pi-Osc is a highly sophisticated consensus type indicator comprising of many different component signals.
A technical traders tool that measures everything from divergences to probabilities all blended into one simple to use product.
The buy and selling opportunities are highlighted by the moves away from + or - 3.14.
Simple to use for all levels of experience from beginner to expert and offers a unique edge in terms of precision.
The components that go into computations are identified below.
Money flow index provides a simple snapshot of how sold out or pumped up a stock or future really is and when measured in three different time frames gives a slick consensus view of money flow.
Relative strength index (RSI) still the No1 most popular indicator in use today as its power to identify overbought and oversold qualities in sideways markets is exceptional.
Its poor performance in trends is greatly reduced when seamlessly integrated with the PI-Osc algorithm.
Demand index being one of the designers favourite indicators for measuring the future direction caused by a large volume trade is incorporated here as well as its exceptional efficiency as a divergence indicator.
James Sibbet's creation provides an additional stellar incisive cutting accuracy to the Pi-Osc. Sibbets creation is one of the only indicators with true predictive qualities as a leading indicator.
Divergences. Pi-Osc measures divergences which occur over many look back periods from two different indicators, realising that divergences are often spurious in their reliability, the indicator only factors 4% of the total indicator
reading from these. Paradoxically the buy and sell zones have to have at least one observation of a divergence to trigger a signal.
Volume is always a factor that precedes a price change, as stock prices cannot move without a real money value being assigned to it either as a recent trade or a bid-offer order being placed.
The designer's understanding of volume patterns is a very useful addition incorporated into the Pi-Osc indicators unique conception.
Momentum frequently decelerates prior to market turning points and PI-osc is monitoring several timeframes of smoothed momentum samples in its calculations.
But unlike a conventional rate of change or momentum indicator the Pi-Osc indicator scores a neutral reading when momentum is rising or falling fast, and a reading is only factored into the output when momentum is reducing, thus
indicating a higher probability of success.
Probability is another feature of this algorithm.
Although rarely used in industry standard oscillators, the designer has added a standard deviation (2.9) factor into this indicator as the more usual 2 standard deviations used in Bollinger bands is just not reliable enough to bet hard earned cash on.
Normally distributed price sets have a 99.9% containment within 3.3 standard deviations, so when this is breached the Pi-Osc adds or deducts a further value to its output number.
Stochastics have similar attributes to RSI oscillators and have contributed a factor into PI-osc due to their smooth and reliable ability to identify buying and selling points in non trending markets.
Price patterns. Generally the industry standard oscillators just use the closing price to calculate their values, and although some indicators such as the stochastic use the high and low in their mathematics, few oscillators are actually programmed to respond to unique candlestick chart set ups.
PI-osc is setting the standard with its intelligent programming to recognise when the current chart pattern is shouting buy signals. Several of the more reliable patterns are factored into the algorithm.
When all the maths is done, Pi-Osc does an exceptional job of determining true buying and selling points.
Basically the trading interpretation is made very simple for you, as the buy and sell zones are so logically determined, not by one factor but from a large consensus "vote" from more than one different computation.
The benefits of this indicator are that it saves valuable time in "confirming technical analysis signals" and all trades know time is precious as large price changes can be missed in seconds while checking other confirming factors.
It takes the hard work out of it, and lets your computer do the brain work.
Ideally this indicator is best as an entry signal, and exits are best done with a trailing stop which has a logical trend following exit, as its quite rare that the Pi-Osc will run right to the other extreme and issue a reverse signal.
Precision Index Oscillator has now got a new rule as a result of the gradual rise in market volatility.
Apart from the other well known main rules to wait for the bounce away from Pi and trade in the direction of the major trend, the new rule is to experiment to find the best historical timeframe.
In the old days it would fire up very nicely on a 10 minute chart of most things, and still does (sometimes) but the futures markets and the very volatile cryptocurrencies now go way out of the old extremities in terms of deviations from the norm.
So it is essential to know what the market volatility is capable of on each instrument.
The point being made here is that using this on very short term time frames is not as safe as used to be.
Institutions enjoy working together to drive the prices into areas where most traders did not expect them to go, taking out all the stops and getting a better price for themselves.
So the first task after ordering this product is to create multiple minute chart settings in your Trading View platform and then click through them and there you will find hopefully find the holy grail, just like finding the best guitar,
amplifier and effects pedal settings for creating your own personalized type of music, finding the best timeframe to use you Pi-Osc is the essential work.
The holy grail usually turns out to be nothing more complex than a stop watch:
If the best setting turns out to be 15 minutes or 30 seconds on a volatile market or a 4 hours minute chart on a very volatile market then so be it.
Who cares? Does it matter?
All that matters is you find the way to get to the best results from this product.
Precision Index Oscillator has eight rules
1. Trade in the direction of the major trend
2. Find the time frame that has worked best in historical testing ( This can be a different setting for each market )
3. ALWAYS use a stop loss
4. Wait for the bounce away from Pi
5. Wait for the bounce away from Pi
6 Wait for the bounce away from Pi
7 Wait for the bounce away from Pi
8. Remember the other seven rules.
Precision Index Oscillator clarification of rules 3 to 7
This indicator can stay locked at the extreme Pi level for many bars, days, hours, minutes, seconds etc.
Taking the signal before the bounce comes is like the well known phrase "catching the falling knife".
Taking the signal before the bounce is a "Pi-Crime" and is a bad idea. Ignoring this point will likely result in losses
As Ed Seykota puts it in his usual amusing style, the problem with catching falling knives is that there are more knives than we have fingers.
He is referring to a market sell off rather than a sell off in one market.
When everything is crashing and we buy all of the crashing things at once, yes you guessed it: A painful day for the fingers!
Suggested settings for various lengths:
There are no settings to change. The beauty of Pi-Osc is there are no settings to be changed.
Your testing of "Pi signal qualifications" is confined only to selecting a time frame which appears to have offered good Pi-trades in the past.
This does not guarantee future signals will be good, and this is why risk control is essential.
Of course it is smart to experiement with different time periods of chart.
Execution of trades:
Exercise caution with this product.
Risk control is essential and risking more than 1% to 1.5% of your capital from entry price to stop would NOT be advised:
As with hunting, firing out lots of small trades in a shot gun approach will lead to better results than gambling all on the first signal you see.
There is much more chance of hitting a bird with a shot gun than a canon and the ammunition is much cheaper.
Always always use a stop loss. Something like 3 to 7 times a fifty period average true range for example.
Whilst it is often possible that a Pi-bounce appears exactly at the precise high or low of the week and could be the only one you see it is risky just to pile into it instantly as some markets produce several failed signals which continue to move in the same direction.
The safest and least risky method is to wait for the trend to change after the Pi-bounce. This is subjective to your own definition of how to measure the trend as "changing" but I would suggest waiting for a 8-20 period Exponential average to turn around before entering a trade.
Once the trade is entered you can implement a trailing stop to allow maximum potential gains and if your style is one of wanting to take quick profits then it is wise to take only some partial profits and give the move a chance to go somewhere and exit the remainder when the trend changes.
If the move was picked up near the absolute top or bottom it could be a large mistake to bail out of all of it early.
Market selection is important:
Avoid markets in endless smooth trends. These are best trading with trend following products ( Pi-Osc is not a trend following product )
Look for a choppy up or down trend or sideways market with some cycle qualities to it.
Best results are on liquid markets, you can observe the past signals and often history repeats with the good previous signals tending to indicate that future signals may also be good. (This is not certain of course)
This is also true of a market showing several historically bad signals which may be leading to more bad signals.
If the past performance of this indicator is poor on the market you are viewing, then move to another market until one is found where the readings show good price action after the signals in historical data.
Time frames:
This product can be applied to any time frame of market but be aware as is stated above, the slower time frames yield more valid signals and shorter time frames lead to more randomness and noise ridden plots of lower significance.
That said, it provides a valid reason to enter a trade and can give good results providing good stops and risk control are used. I have seen plenty of valid signals on 30 second charts right up to weekly charts.
The reliability of short term intra day time frames is usually lower than weekly or daily time frames. As 10 minute time frame is more reliable than a 30 second chart.
Please take this into consideration, try slowing down the impulses to go fast.
I am now accepting payments in USD or CHF for this product
This is not because I expect a US Dollar collapse but as a precaution to spread currency risk over different classes.
As FX rates vary substantially you can find the option that is cheaper than the other and it is fine to do that and choose the cheaper payment option.
Thanks for reading and I hope you do well with Pi-Osc on Trading View, just remember all the eight rules. You do remember them don't you?

[SPOILED]SuperTrench - ETH Super ScalperHi Traders,
I'm republishing this script as I finally polished it to perfection IMO. The script uses 5 coding sections: entry, trend filter, pivot filter, take profit, and stop loss. The script mainly uses trailing as take profit; this is probably the easiest way to make a profitable scalper strategy.
Backtest capital is set to 1000 USDT, 35% equity, 0.04% commission, limited backtest date from Jan 2022 to now, backtested on ETH/USDT prep contracts 15m timeframe, result as shown below.
It looks unreal right? Hell no, I actually tested this strategy on Binance from Dec 06 to Dec 10. I got 8.29% return with 4x leverage, 50% equity setup; 75% win rate,1.58 profit factor, with 4.3% max drawdown, it is amazingly close to the backtest result.
User Manual
Entry >>> Stoch RSI:
I added 5 MA types to the Stoch RSI which is HMA/VWMA/WMA/EMA/SMA, HMA with Length setting of 5, 8 seems to be most efficient, VWMA and WMA with 8, 13 will generate less entry signals but with less entry risks.
Entry >>> R Style:
It based on price action, with candlestick makes a U turn, after 2nd candlestick confirmed, it generates entry signal, this will give you some extra entries, better leave it enabled.
Entry >>> Price Step:
This probably is the core feature of this strategy; also my secret ingredient to making this strategy this efficient. It is recommended to enable step 1-5, more steps basically means more entries, but they are not necessarily profitable.
Trend Filter >>> Price Step:
I couldn't tell you much details about how this indicator works, but it is a reliable indicator, based on price action, and I got some ideas from Demark9 indicator. The bigger the level, the stronger the filter is, please note that if 'Price Step Entries' less than Price Step Trend, entries will be ignored.
Pivot Filter >>> RSI Pivot & Pinbar Pivot:
RSI Pivot detects if the RSI signal line making U turn in certain condition, Pinbar detection combines R Style entry when price action U turn took place, these 2 pivot filter will close the trade once it is counter trend, so it better enable and leave it as is.
Trend Filter >>> Trend Magic:
Trend Magic uses CCI and ATR to calculate trend status, green means uptrend, red means downtrend, pretty straight forward, the best value for this indicator would be, 21, 34, 55, 89.
Trend Filter >>> Alpha:
This filter combines R style pivot, price step, EMA all together to detects consolidation area, because EMA was involved, so the best look back period would be around 15-35, it is best to use default value IMO, in another hands, if you need stronger filter, feel free to use 10, 18, 20, 25, 30, 35, make sure look back period should increase or decrease by 5 every time.
Take Profit and Stop Loss:
The default value for tp is set to 0.4%, but I also give you option to switch to ATR TP; you can adjust in the ATR multiplier, default ATR trailing stop loss uses 1 ATR, but you can adjust it for better drawdown tolerance. Fixed ATR SL is also given when fixed ATR is enabled. There will be a failsafe SL default set to 1% if price moves counter direction of opened position, it will close trade no matter what happens.
Enjoy :)
[MT] Strategy Backtest Template| Initial Release | | EN |
An update of my old script, this script is designed so that it can be used as a template for all those traders who want to save time when programming their strategy and backtesting it, having functions already programmed that in normal development would take you more time to program, with this template you can simply add your favorite indicator and thus be able to take advantage of all the functions that this template has.
🔴Stop Loss and 🟢Take Profit:
No need to mention that it is a Stop Loss and a Take Profit, within these functions we find the options of: fixed percentage (%), fixed price ($), ATR, especially for Stop Loss we find the Pivot Points, in addition to this, the price range between the entry and the Stop Loss can be converted into a trailing stop loss, instead, especially for the Take Profit we have an option to choose a 1:X ratio that complements very well with the Pivot Points.
📈Heikin Ashi Based Entries:
Heikin Ashi entries are trades that are calculated based on Heikin Ashi candles but their price is executed to Japanese candles, thus avoiding false results that occur in Heikin candlestick charts, this making in certain cases better results in strategies that are executed with this option compared to Japanese candlesticks.
📊Dashboard:
A more visual and organized way to see the results and necessary data produced by our strategy, among them we can see the dates between which our operations are made regardless if you have activated some time filter, usual data such as Profit, Win Rate, Profit factor are also displayed in this panel, additionally data such as the total number of operations, how many were gains and how many losses, the average profit and loss for each operation and finally the maximum profits and losses followed, which are data that will be very useful to us when we elaborate our strategies.

Mean reversal QFL v3My aim is to make the bots trade as you would trading QFL manually and “by the book” or at least to my experience and understanding from the material out there of how you should plan a QFL trade.
Im absolutely not a pro trader, I have made my share of costly mistakes trying to be clever or Beeing impatient resulting in painful losses. QFL is we’re I’ve had consistently good results tough.
Is this where I have to say I’m not a financial advisor and all that? Well I’m not. As always Do your own research and backtest, backtest, backtest.
First: I believe no bot strategy are set and forget, while they can run unattended 80-90% of the time you're always going to find yourself in a situation where you will have to manually handle a bad deal. It would also make sense to be somewhat involved in the really good trades making the most out of them. That’s why understanding the strategy the bot Is using is really important, hence why I prefer QFL. It's an easy concept to understand, and proved to be a safe way of making steady profit in pretty much all market conditions if done right.
Some changes in how aggressive you are might be needed if you are the impatient kind of trader who needs to see a lot of deals happening. But it is an added risk. In those cases Luc would advise to start “nibbling” but that would be hard to implement in a bot but I will see if that’s something I can implement.
Same goes for going the more conservative route when market conditions calls for it.
QFL stands for Quickfingersluc, and sometimes it is referred to as the Base Strategy or Mean Reversals. Its main idea is about identifying the moment of panic selling and buying below the base level and utilizing Safety orders.
Base level or Support Level refers to the lowest price level that was reached before the moment the price started increasing again. At that level, you can notice that buyers of some cryptocurrencies make a strong reaction.
As a bit of a learning material i want to make a few points on important factors in trading using the QFL strategy:
• Identify strong bases
• Read the history of the chart
• No emotions
Trading QFL using a bot has it’s limitations:
· Some of the bases are questionable but im constantly trying to improve this
· The strategy don’t take into consideration chart history(success rate)*
· You need to follow a predefined (by you) buying ladder, hence not considering a particular coin's average price movement, which may vary quite a lot. This why I for now has limited the strategy to SIMPLE bots. So that unique alerts can be created for each pair.
· A set Take profit %, possibly making you miss out on higher profits(This is easy to change during a trade though), and no chance of selling in layers(This is coming soon).
1. Some of the bases are questionable
The strategy will start trades of bases that you wouldn’t consider being a strong base(or a base at all) when looking at the chart.
For those not as familiar with QFL. What is a base, and what qualifies as a strong base?
• A base is also called the Support Level, which is the lowest price level that was reached before the price started turning and increasing again.
• A strong base is recognized by a steep fall in price after breaking the base(Panic), followed by a big reaction pump.
• The reaction pump is the most important factor to say that it is a strong base.
• And also the last base, the one you are trading of is the one that counts
Tip: Look for V shapes on the chart, easy to spot when zoomed out.
2. The integrated signals don’t take into consideration chart history(success rate)*
How can you assess the success rate by looking at the chart?
After finding the bases based on the criterias from the 1st point. Looking at the, how many times did it respect the base after breaking it? 7/10, 8/10, 9/10 times? Great! Chances of the next trade also respecting the base is big, and I would consider raising the TP on that deal. Any lower than that I would keep a really close eye on the deal, or even consider closing the deal. And again remember the last base is the one that counts. If all the others are nice strong bases but that last one you are about to take a trade off is no good the base is invalidated so be cautious.
3. You need to follow a predefined (by you) buying ladder
Crypto is volatile, and there is a huge variation in price movements on all the coins.
Trading manually, looking at the chart gives you a good idea on how much a coin on avg. drops below base, and how big the following reaction is. This gives you an indication on how deep you need to set your layers, and where you can take profit.
Using the strategy you have the backtester to see how much max deviation has been in the past so that you can figure out what the optimal max deviation is.
4. A set Take profit %, possibly making you miss out on higher profits(This is easy to change during a trade though), and no chance of selling in layers.
Not going to say to much about this other than what I often do is:
When a bot has started a trade I usually take a look at the chart. If I like what I see, nice chart history, success rate and trading of a strong previous base etc, with the current base break resulting in a panic drop I will consider increasing the TP so that it will make more profit. This can be a bit risky but also very rewarding. Imagine filling all safeties and then selling just below base! Massive profits!! (Gotta be honest though, almost never stretch it that far with a bot though, but it is a possibility) .
If you have studied the chart and concluded that this particular trade has a 90% chance of success, there isn’t really any reason not to place TP just below base. This is where I would like to have the option of layering my sell orders as well so its something im working on implementing.
Trailing is an option in 3commas, but it’s slow to place orders making you miss a selling opportunity when the coin makes a sudden spike up.
ABOUT THIS STRATEGY
In this strategy we can also reverse the strategy and go short. But i must warn you that that is alot riskier.
QFL is meant to be used on higher TF's like 1hr, 2hr and 4hr. But this strategy also work well on lower Timeframes.
The script also simulates DCA strategy with parameters used in 3commas DCA bots for futures trading.
Experiment with parameters to find your trading setup.
Beware how large your total leveraged position is and how far can market go before you get liquidated!
Do that with the help of futures liquidation calculators you can find online!
Included:
An internal average price and profit calculating, instead of TV`s native one, which is subject to severe slippage.
A graphic interface, so levels are clearly visible and back-test analyzing made easier.
Long & Short direction of the strategy.
Table display a summary of past trades
Vertical colored lines appear when the new maximum deviation from the original price has
been reached
All the trading happens with total account capital, and all order sizes inputs are expressed in percent.
How to use:
- Add the script to the current chart
- Open the strategy settings
-Tweak the settings to to your liking.
-Make a SIMPLE bot in 3commas and use the same settings as you did in tradingview if you only want the strategy to send signals to open a deal and let 3commas handle the rest.
If you check safety orders, Take profit deal stop and Stop loss. The strategy will send all the orders to 3 commas. If that’s what you want set TP in 3commas to 50% set number of safety orders to 0 and keep stop loss unchecked.
- Insert bot details using the deal start condition message found in your 3commas bot.
- When happy, right click on the "..." next to the strategy name, then "Add alert'".
- Under "Condition", on the second line, chose "Any alert () function call". Add the webhook from 3commas( 3commas.io ), give it a name, use {{strategy.order.alert_message}} as a placeholder message and "create".
In the future this signal might make it to the 3commas marketplace. You can then subscribe to that signal where I have cherrypicked coins based on thorough backtesting and optimization.

-- ADX, filters trades below specified ADX value.
-- Max Stop Loss, can be enabled when the Stop Loss type is set to "Strategy". Used to prevent taking trades which exceed liquidation price.
-- Direction, will filter trades in a certain direction.
Instruction
- The strategy script relies on an external indicator therefore it is required to add the signal indicator first.
- To adapt the signal indicator to be compatible it must have only one plot.
-- The default value of the plot should be 1 when there is no buy/sell signal.
-- When the signal indicator signals BUY the line should plot the value
-- When the signal indicator signals SELL the line should plot the value
-- (I am aiming to support EXIT signals as well as the Stop Loss and Take Profit percentages in the near future)
- The first time you load the script it will show an error "Study Error: Signal source set to default ". This means the signal indicator was not selected.
The signal indicator should be selected in the strategy configuration panel option "Signal Source"
Bounce Manager S/RThis script is based on the bounce manager ATR script
The S/R script is made for manual input of horizontal S/R lines, the script will then see if price respects these levels by the parameters you input in settings panel. On a respectable bounce it will print buy/sell arrows. The script also has functionality to send alerts, this is helpful if you want to automate S/R lines.
An easy strategy to use would be the one you see in the preview using a grid of round numbers. This script in no way shape or form promises easy gains and like all algorithms should be forward tested on a paper trading account before using real money.
components:
- Max violation: When price moves past this the script will no longer look for entry until a new trend has been established. The line can also be used as a stop loss.
- Confirmation line: When price touches the line during a trend it
will wait to cross over this line to confirm a reaction from the line.
- Min past distance: A trend filtering system, this is a distance from
the line price has to break to confirm trend direction.
- Stop loss: This can be set to a percentage distance from the low after
bounce. Or it can be set to the max violation line
- Take profit: This can be a fixed take profit target or a risk to reward
based take profit. With risk to reward it will multiply the stop loss
distance by the input and use that to create target (green cross)
- ATR based or % based: there are 2 versions of the script, one for strict
percentage based logic and another one based on ATR values
Part of the Honest Algo service.
Trading PanelWhen trading, position sizing and risk calculation is the key to become successful.
We need to keep the losses small and adjust the position size according to what
risk we are prepared to take for the planned Entry.
Based on the Account Size and the max percentage we want to risk for any trade,
we calculate, for a number of fixed max Loss percentages:
- The Position size, both in percent and in the selected currency.
- Number of shares to buy.
- Where to put the Stop Loss.
We also calculate the numbers based on the ATR times a multiple.
The values are presented in a table format and will hopefully aid in selecting
a suitable Stop Loss (based on the chart situation) and hence the proper Position Size.
We also allow for expressing the Account size in currencies other than USD.
Example:
Account Size in USD and trading US stocks: select USD
Account Size in SEK but trading US stocks: select USDSEK
Bollinger Bands Strategy with StopLossThis is the default Bollinger Bands Strategy with a small change to support Stop Loss.
The default built-int BBS does not support Stop Loss and using it may cause large losses, specially in margin trading.

Multi-Market Swing Trader Webhook Ready [HullBuster]
Introduction
This is an all symbol swing trading strategy intended for webhook integration to live accounts. This script employs an adjustable bandwidth ping pong algorithm which can be run in long only, short only or bidirectional modes. Additionally, this script provides advanced features such as pyramiding and DCA. It has been in development for nearly three years and exposes over 90 inputs to accommodate varying risk reward ratios. Equipped with a proper configuration it is suitable for professional traders seeking quality trades from a cloud based platform. This is my most advanced Pine Script to date which combines my RangeV3 and TrendV2 scripts. Using this combination it tries to bridge the gap between range bound and trending markets. I have put a lot of time into creating a system that could transition by itself so as to require less human intervention and thus be able to withstand long periods in full automation mode.
As a Pine strategy, hypothetical performance can be easily back-tested. Allowing you to Iron out the configuration of your target instrument. Now with recent advancements from the Pine development team this same script can be connected to a webhook through the alert mechanism. The requirement of a separate study script has been completely removed. This really makes things a lot easier to get your trading system up and running. I would like to also mention that TradingView has made significant advancements to the back-end over the last year. Notably, compile times are much faster now permitting more complex algorithms to be implemented. Thank you TradingView!
I used QuantConnect as my role model and strived to produce a base script which could compete with higher end cloud based platforms while being attractive to similarly experienced traders. The versatility of the Pine Language combined with the greater selection of end point execution systems provides a powerful alternative to other cloud based platforms. At the very least, with the features available today, a modular trading system for everyday use is a reality. I hope you'll agree.
This is a swing trading strategy so the behavior of this script is to buy on weakness and sell on strength. In trading parlance this is referred to as Support and Resistance Trading. Support being the point at which prices stop falling and start rising. Resistance being the point at which prices stop rising and fall. The chart real estate between these two points being defined as the range. This script seeks to implement strategies to profit from placing trades within this region. Short positions at resistance and long positions at support. Just to be clear, the range as well as trends are merely illusions as the chart only receives prices. However, this script attempts to calculate pivot points from the price stream. Rising pivots are shorts and falling pivots are longs. I refer to pivots as a vertex in this script which adds structural components to the chart formation (point, sides and a base). When trading in “Ping Pong” mode long and short positions are interleaved continuously as long as there exists a detectable vertex.
This is a non-hedging script so those of us subject to NFA FIFO Rule 2-43(b) should be generally safe to webhook into signals emitted from this script. However, as covered later in this document, there are some technical limitations to this statement. I have tested this script on various instruments for over two years and have configurations for forex, crypto and stocks. This script along with my TrendV2 script are my daily trading vehicles as a webhook into my forex and crypto accounts. This script employs various high risk features that could wipe out your account if not used judiciously. You should absolutely not use this script if you are a beginner or looking for a get-rich-quick strategy. Also please see my CFTC RULE 4.41 disclosure statement at the end of the document. Really!
Does this script repaint? The short answer is yes, it does, despite my best efforts to the contrary. EMAs are central to my strategy and TradingView calculates from the beginning of the series so there is just no getting around this. However, Pine is improving everyday and I am hopeful that this issue will be address from an architectural level at some point in the future. I have programmed my webhook to compensate for this occurrence so, in the mean time, this my recommended way to handle it (at the endpoint and before the broker).
Design
This strategy uses a ping pong algorithm of my own design. Basically, trades bounce off each other along the price stream. Trades are produced as a series of reversals. The point at which a trade reverses is a pivot calculation. A measurement is made between the recent valley to peak which results in a standard deviation value. This value is an input to implied probability calculation.Yes, the same implied probability used in sports betting. Odds are then calculated to determine the likelihood of price action continuing or retracing to the pivot. Based on where the account is at alert time, the action could be an entry, take profit or pyramid signal. In this design, trades must occur in alternating sequence. A long followed by a short then another long followed by a short and so on. In range bound price action trades appear along the outer bands of the channel in the aforementioned sequence. Shorts on the top and longs at the bottom. Generally speaking, the widths of the trading bands can be adjusted using the vertex dynamics in Section 2. There are a dozen inputs in this section used to describe the trading range. It is not a simple adjustment. If pyramids are enabled the strategy overrides the ping pong reversal pattern and begins an accumulation sequence. In this case you will see a series of same direction trades.
This script uses twelve indicators on a single time frame. The original trading algorithms are a port from a C++ program on proprietary trading platform. I’ve converted some of the statistical functions to use standard indicators available on TradingView. The setups make heavy use of the Hull Moving Average in conjunction with EMAs that form the Bill Williams Alligator as described in his book “New Trading Dimensions” Chapter 3. Lag between the Hull and the EMAs play a key role in identifying the pivot points. I really like the Hull Moving Average. I use it in all my systems, including 3 other platforms. It’s is an excellent leading indicator and a relatively light calculation.
The trend detection algorithms rely on several factors:
1. Smoothed EMAs in a Willams Alligator pattern.
2. Number of pivots encountered in a particular direction.
3. Which side debt is being incurred.
4. Settings in Section 4 and 5 (long and short)
The strategy uses these factors to determine the probability of prices continuing in the most recent direction. My TrendV2 script uses a higher time frame to determine trend direction. I can’t use that method in this script without exceeding various TradingView limitations on code size. However, the higher time frame is the best way to know which trend is worth pursuing or better to bet against.
The entire script is around 2400 lines of Pine code which pushes the limits of what can be created on this platform given the TradingView maximums for: local scopes, run-time duration and compile time. The module has been through numerous refactoring passes and makes extensive use of ternary statements. As such, It takes a full minute to compile after adding it to a chart. Please wait for the hovering dots to disappear before attempting to bring up the input dialog box. Scrolling the chart quickly may bring up an hour glass.
Regardless of the market conditions: range or trend. The behavior of the script is governed entirely by the 91 inputs. Depending on the settings, bar interval and symbol, you can configure a system to trade in small ranges producing a thousand or more trades. If you prefer wider ranges with fewer trades then the vertex detection settings in Section 2 should employ stiffer values. To make the script more of a trend follower, adjustments are available in Section 4 and 5 (long and short respectively). Overall this script is a range trader and the setups want to get in that way. It cannot be made into a full blown trend trading system. My TrendV2 is equipped for that purpose. Conversely, this script cannot be effectively deployed as a scalper either. The vertex calculation require too much data for high frequency trading. That doesn’t work well for retail customers anyway. The script is designed to function in bar intervals between 5 minutes and 4 hours. However, larger intervals require more backtest data in order to create reliable configurations. TradingView paid plans (Pro) only provide 10K bars which may not be sufficient. Please keep that in mind.
The transition from swing trader to trend follower typically happens after a stop is hit. That means that your account experiences a loss first and usually with a pyramid stack so the loss could be significant. Even then the script continues to alternate trades long and short. The difference is that the strategy tries to be more long on rising prices and more short on falling prices as opposed to simply counter trend trading. Otherwise, a continuous period of rising prices results in a distinctly short pyramid stack. This is much different than my TrendV2 script which stays long on peaks and short on valleys. Basically, the plan is to be profitable in range bound markets and just lose less when a trend comes along. How well this actually plays out will depend largely on the choices made in the sectioned input parameters.
Sections
The input dialog for this script contains 91 inputs separated into six sections.
Section 1: Global settings for the strategy including calculation model, trading direction, exit levels, pyramid and DCA settings. This is where you specify your minimum profit and stop levels. You should setup your Properties tab inputs before working on any of the sections. It’s really important to get the Base Currency right before doing any work on the strategy inputs. It is important to understand that the “Minimum Profit” and “Limit Offset” are conditional exits. To exit at a profit, the specified value must be exceeded during positive price pressure. On the other hand, the “Stop Offset” is a hard limit.
Section 2: Vertex dynamics. The script is equipped with four types of pivot point indicators. Histogram, candle, fractal and transform. Despite how the chart visuals may seem. The chart only receives prices. It’s up to the strategy to interpret patterns from the number stream. The quality of the feed and the symbol’s bar characteristics vary greatly from instrument to instrument. Each indicator uses a fundamentally different pattern recognition algorithm. Use trial and error to determine the best fit for your configuration. After selecting an indicator type, there are eight analog fields that must be configured for that particular indicator. This is the hardest part of the configuration process. The values applied to these fields determine how the range will be measured. They have a big effect on the number of trades your system will generate. To see the vertices click on the “Show Markers” check box in this section. Red markers are long positions and blue markers are short. This will give you an idea of where trades will be placed in natural order.
Section 3: Event thresholds. Price spikes are used to enter and exit trades. The magnitude which define these spikes are configured here. The rise and fall events are primarily for pyramid placement. The rise and fall limits determine the exit threshold for the conditional “Limit Offset” field found in Section 1. These fields should be adjusted one at a time. Use a zero value to disengage every one but the one you are working on. Use the fill colors found in Section 6 to get a visual on the values applied to these fields. To make it harder for pyramids to enter stiffen the Event values. This is more of a hack as the formal pyramid parameters are in Section 1.
Section 4 and 5: Long and short settings. These are mirror opposite settings with all opposing fields having the same meaning. Its really easy to introduce data mining bias into your configuration through these fields. You must combat against this tendency by trying to keep your settings as uniform as possible. Wildly different parameters for long and short means you have probably fitted the chart. There are nine analog and thirteen Boolean fields per trade direction. This section is all about how the trades themselves will be placed along the range defined in Section 2. Generally speaking, more restrictive settings will result in less trades but higher quality. Remember that this strategy will enter long on falling prices and short on rising prices. So getting in the trade too early leads to a draw-down. However, this could be what you want if pyramiding is enabled. I, personally, have found that the best configurations come from slightly skewing one side. I just accept that the other side will be sub-par.
Section 6: Chart rendering. This section contains one analog and four Boolean fields. More or less a diagnostic tool. Of particular interest is the “Symbol Debt Sequence” field. This field contains a whole number which paints regions that have sustained a run of bad trades equal or greater than specified value. It is useful when DCA is enabled. In this script Dollar Cost Averaging on new positions continues only until the symbol debt is recouped. To get a better understanding on how this works put a number in this field and activate DCA. You should notice how the trade size increases in the colored regions. The “Summary Report” checkbox displays a blue information box at the live end of the chart. It exposes several metrics which you may find useful if manually trading this strategy from audible alerts or text messages.
Pyramids
This script features a downward pyramiding strategy which increases your position size on losing trades. On purely margin trades, this feature can be used to, hypothetically, increase the profit factor of positions (not individual trades). On long only markets, such as crypto, you can use this feature to accumulate coins at depressed prices. The way it works is the stop offset, applied in the Section 1 inputs, determines the maximum risk you intend to bear. Additional trades will be placed at pivot points calculated all the way down to the stop price. The size of each add on trade is increased by a multiple of its interval. The maximum number of intervals is limited by the “Pyramiding” field in the properties tab. The rate at which pyramid positions are created can be adjusted in Section 1. To see the pyramids click on the “Mark Pyramid Levels” check box in the same section. Blue triangles are painted below trades other than the primary.
Unlike traditional Martingale strategies, the result of your trade is not dependent on the profit or loss from the last trade. The position must recover the R1 point in order to close. Alternatively, you can set a “Pyramid Bale Out Offset” in Section 1 which will terminate the trade early. However, the bale out must coincide with a pivot point and result in a profitable exit in order to actually close the trade. Should the market price exceed the stop offset set in Section 1, the full value of the position, multiplied by the accepted leverage, will be realized as a loss to the trading account. A series of such losses will certainly wipe out your account.
Pyramiding is an advanced feature intended for professional traders with well funded accounts and an appropriate mindset. The availability of this feature is not intended to endorse or promote my use of it. Use at your own risk (peril).
DCA
In addition to pyramiding this script employs DCA which enables users to experiment with loss recovery techniques. This is another advanced feature which can increase the order size on new trades in response to stopped out or winning streak trades. The script keeps track of debt incurred from losing trades. When the debt is recovered the order size returns to the base amount specified in the properties tab. The inputs for this feature are found in section 3 and include a limiter to prevent your account from depleting capital during runaway markets. The main difference between DCA and pyramids is that this implementation of DCA applies to new trades while pyramids affect open positions. DCA is a popular feature in crypto trading but can leave you with large “bags” if your not careful. In other markets, especially margin trading, you’ll need a well funded account and much experience.
To be sure pyramiding and dollar cost averaging is as close to gambling as you can get in respectable trading exchanges. However, if you are looking to compete in a spot trading contest or just want to add excitement to your trading life style those features could find a place in your strategies. Although your backtest may show spectacular gains don’t expect your live trading account to do the same. Every backtest has some measure of data mining bias. Please remember that.
Webhook Integration
The TradingView alerts dialog provides a way to connect your script to an external system which could actually execute your trade. This is a fantastic feature that enables you to separate the data feed and technical analysis from the execution and reporting systems. Using this feature it is possible to create a fully automated trading system entirely on the cloud. Of course, there is some work to get it all going in a reliable fashion. To that end this script has several things going for it. First off, it is a strategy type script. That means that the strategy place holders such as {{strategy.position_size}} can be embedded in the alert message text. There are more than 10 variables which can write internal script values into the message for delivery to the specified endpoint. Additionally, my scripts output the current win streak and debt loss counts in the {{strategy.order.alert_message}} field. Depending on the condition, this script will output other useful values in the JSON “comment” field of the alert message. Here is an excerpt of the fields I use in my webhook signal:
"broker_id": "kraken",
"account_id": "XXX XXXX XXXX XXXX",
"symbol_id": "XMRUSD",
"action": "{{strategy.order.action}}",
"strategy": "{{strategy.order.id}}",
"lots": "{{strategy.order.contracts}}",
"price": "{{strategy.order.price}}",
"comment": "{{strategy.order.alert_message}}",
"timestamp": "{{time}}"
Though TradingView does a great job in dispatching your alert this feature does come with a few idiosyncrasies. Namely, a single transaction call in your script may cause multiple transmissions to the endpoint. If you are using placeholders each message describes part of the transaction sequence. A good example is closing a pyramid stack. Although the script makes a single strategy.close() call, the endpoint actually receives a close message for each pyramid trade. The broker, on the other hand, only requires a single close. The incongruity of this situation is exacerbated by the possibility of messages being received out of sequence. Depending on the type of order designated in the message, a close or a reversal. This could have a disastrous effect on your live account. This broker simulator has no idea what is actually going on at your real account. Its just doing the job of running the simulation and sending out the computed results. If your TradingView simulation falls out of alignment with the actual trading account lots of really bad things could happen. Like your script thinks your are currently long but the account is actually short. Reversals from this point forward will always be wrong with no one the wiser. Human intervention will be required to restore congruence. But how does anyone find out this is occurring? In closed systems engineering this is known as entropy. In practice your webhook logic should be robust enough to detect these conditions. Be generous with the placeholder usage and give the webhook code plenty of information to compare states. Both issuer and receiver. Don’t blindly commit incoming signals without verifying system integrity.
Operation
This is a swing trading strategy so the fundamental behavior of this script is to buy on weakness and sell on strength. As such trade orders are placed in a counter direction to price pressure. What you will see on the chart is a short position on peaks and a long position on valleys. This is slightly misleading since a range as well as a trend are best recognized, in hindsight, after the patterns occur on the chart. In the middle of a trade, one never knows how deep valleys will drop or how high peaks will rise. For certain, long trades will continue to trigger as the market prices fall and short trades on rising prices. This means that the maximum efficiency of this strategy is achieved in choppy markets where the price doesn’t extend very far from its adjacent pivot point. Conversely, this strategy will be the least efficient when market conditions exhibit long continuous single direction price pressure. Especially, when measured in weeks. Translation, the trend is not your friend with this strategy. Internally, the script attempts to recognize prolonged price pressure and changes tactics accordingly. However, at best, the goal is to weather the trend until the range bound market returns. At worst, trend detection fails and pyramid trades continue to be placed until the limit specified in the Properties tab is reached. In all likelihood this could trigger a margin call and if it hits the stop it could wipe out your account.
This script has been in beta test four times since inception. During all that time no one has been successful in creating a configuration from scratch. Most people give up after an hour or so. To be perfectly honest, the configuration process is a bear. I know that but there is no way, currently, to create libraries in Pine. There is also no way specify input parameters other than the flattened out 2-D inputs dialog. And the publish rules clearly state that script variations addressing markets or symbols (suites) are not permitted. I suppose the problem is systemic to be-all-end-all solutions like my script is trying to be. I needed a cloud strategy for all the symbols that I trade and since Pine does not support library modules, include files or inter process communication this script and its unruly inputs are my weapon of choice in the war against the market forces. It takes me about six hours to configure a new symbol. Also not all the symbols I configure are equally successful. I should mention that I have a facsimile of this strategy written in another platform which allows me to run a backtest on 10 years of historical data. The results provide me a sanity check on the inputs I select on this platform.
My personal configurations use a 10 minute bar interval on forex instruments and 15 minutes on crypto. I try to align my TradingView scripts to employ standard intervals available from the broker so that I can backtest longer durations than those available on TradingView. For example, Bitcoin at 15 minute bars is downloadable from several sources. I really like the 10 minute bar. It provides lots of detectable patterns and is easy to store many years in an SQL database.
The following steps provide a very brief set of instructions that will get you started but will most certainly not produce the best backtest. A trading system that you are willing to risk your hard earned capital will require a well crafted configuration that involves time, expertise and clearly defined goals. As previously mentioned, I have several example configurations that I use for my own trading that I can share with you if you like. To get hands on experience in setting up your own symbol from scratch please follow the steps below.
Step 1. Setup the Base currency and order size in the properties tab.
Step 2. Select the calculation presets in the Instrument Type field.
Step 3. Select “No Trade” in the Trading Mode field
Step 4. Select the Histogram indicator from Section 2. You will be experimenting with different ones so it doesn’t matter which one you try first.
Step 5. Turn on Show Markers in Section 2.
Step 6. Go to the chart and checkout where the markers show up. Blue is up and red is down. Long trades show up along the red markers and short trades on the blue.
Step 7. Make adjustments to “Base To Vertex” and “Vertex To Base” net change and ROC in Section 2. Use these fields to move the markers to where you want trades to be.
Step 8. Try a different indicator from Section 2 and repeat Step 7 until you find the best match for this instrument on this interval. This step is complete when the Vertex settings and indicator combination produce the most favorable results.
Step 9. Go to Section 4 and enable “Apply Red Base To Base Margin”.
Step 10. Go to Section 5 and enable “Apply Blue Base To Base Margin”.
Step 11. Go to Section 2 and adjust “Minimum Base To Base Blue” and “Minimum Base To Base Red”. Observe the chart and note where the markers move relative to each other. Markers further apart will produce less trades but will reduce cutoffs in “Ping Pong” mode.
Step 12. Turn off Show Markers in Section 2.
Step 13. Put in your Minimum Profit and Stop Loss in the first section. This is in pips or currency basis points (chart right side scale). Percentage is not currently supported. Note that the profit is taken as a conditional exit on a market order not a fixed limit. The actual profit taken will almost always be greater than the amount specified. The stop loss, on the other hand, is indeed a hard number which is executed by the TradingView broker simulator when the threshold is breached.
Step 14. Return to step 3 and select a Trading Mode (Long, Short, BiDir, Ping Pong). If you are planning to trade bidirectionally its best to configure long first then short. Combine them with “BiDir” or “Ping Pong” after setting up both sides of the trade individually. The difference between “BiDir” and “Ping Pong” is that “Ping Pong” uses position reversal and can cut off opposing trades less than the specified minimum profit. As a result “Ping Pong” mode produces the greatest number of trades.
Step 15. Take a look at the chart. Trades should be showing along the markers plotted earlier.
Step 16. Make adjustments to the Vertex fields in Section 2 until the TradingView performance report is showing a profit. This includes the “Minimum Base To Base” fields. If a profit cannot be achieved move on to Step 17.
Step 17. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Entry Net Change” and “Entry ROC” in Section 4 and 5.
Step 18. Enable the “Mandatory Snap” checkbox in Section 4 and 5 and adjust the “Snap Candle Delta” and “Snap Fractal Delta” in Section 2. This should reduce some chop producing unprofitable reversals.
Step 19. Increase the distance between opposing trades by adding an “Interleave Delta” in Sections 4 and 5. This is a floating point value which starts at 0.01 and typically does not exceed 2.0.
Step 20. Increase the distance between opposing trades even further by adding a “Decay Minimum Span” in Sections 4 and 5. This is an absolute value specified in the symbol’s quote currency (right side scale of the chart). This value is similar to the minimum profit and stop loss fields in Section 1.
Step 21. The “Buy Composite Strength” input works in tandem with “Long Decay Minimum Span” in Section 4. Try enabling and see if it improves the performance. This field is only relevant when there is a value in “Long Decay Minimum Span”.
Step 22. The “Sell Composite Weakness” input works in tandem with “Short Decay Minimum Span” in Section 5. Try enabling and see if it improves the performance. This field is only relevant when there is a value in “Short Decay Minimum Span”.
Step 23. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Adherence Delta” in Section 4 and 5. This field requires the “Adhere to Rising Trend” checkbox to be enabled.
Step 24. At this point your strategy should be more or less working. Experiment with the remaining check boxes in Section 4 and 5. Keep the ones which seem to improve the performance.
Step 25. Examine the chart and see that trades are being placed in accordance with your desired trading goals. This is an important step. If your desired model requires multiple trades per day then you should be seeing hundreds of trades on the chart. Alternatively, you may be looking to trade fewer steep peaks and deep valleys in which case you should see trades at major turning points. Don’t simply settle for what the backtest serves you. Work your configuration until the system aligns with your desired model. Try changing indicators and even intervals if you cannot reach your simulation goals. Generally speaking, the histogram and Candle indicators produce the most trades. The Fractal indicator captures the tallest peaks and valleys. The Transform indicator is the most reliable but doesn’t well work on all instruments.
Example Settings
To reproduce the performance shown on the chart please use the following configuration:
1. Select XBTUSD Kraken as the chart symbol.
2. On the properties tab set the Order Size to: 0.01 Bitcoin
3. On the properties tab set the Pyramiding to: 10
4. In Section 1: Select “Forex” for the Instrument Type
5. In Section 1: Select “Ping Pong” for the Trading Mode
6. In Section 1: Input 1200 for the Minimum Profit
7. In Section 1: Input 15000 for the Stop Offset
8. In Section 1: Input 1200 for the Pyramid Minimum Span
9. In Section 1: Check mark the Ultra Wide Pyramids
10. In Section 2: Check mark the Use Transform Indicator
So to be clear, I used a base position size of one - one hundredth of a Bitcoin and allow the script to add up to 10 downward pyramids. The example back-test did hit eight downward pyramids. That means the account would have to be able to withstand a base position size (0.01) times 28. The resulting position size is 0.28 of a Bitcoin. If the price of Bitcoin is 35K then the draw down amount (not including broker fees) would be $9800 dollars. Since I have a premium subscription my backtest chart includes 20K historical bars. That's roughly six months of data. As of today, pro accounts only get 10K bars so the performance cannot be exactly matched with such a difference in historical data. Please keep that in mind.
There are, of course, various ways to reduce the risk incurred from accumulating pyramids. You can increase the “Pyramid Minimum Span” input found in Section 2 which increases the space between each pyramid trade. Also you can set a “Pyramid Bale Out Offset” in the same input section. This lets you out of the trade faster on position recovery. For example: Set a value of 8000 into this input and the number of trades increase to 178 from 157. Since the positions didn’t go full term, more trades were created at less profit each. The total brute force approach would be to simply limit the number of pyramids in the Properties tab.
It should be noted that since this is crypto, accumulating on the long side may be what you want. If you are not trading on margin and thus outright buying coins on the Kraken exchange you likely are interested in increasing your Bitcoin position at depressed prices. This is a popular feature on some of the other crypto trading packages like CryptoHopper and Profit Trailer. Click on Enable TV Long Only Rule in Section 1. This switches the signal emitter to long only. However, you may still see short trades on the chart. They are treated as a close instead of a reversal.
Feel free to PM me with any questions related to this script. Thank you and happy trading!

These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
supertrend with 2tp by AkHi traders
This strategy is based on two take profit targets and scaling out strategy. The entry rule is very simple. Whenever supertrend show long trade is taken and vice versa...and you have to use minimum 2 contract size
Take Profit and Stop Loss
The first take profit is set at 3 points above the long entry and the second take profit is set at 6 points above the long entry. Meanwhile, the stop loss is set at 3 points below the long entry....u can change points for profit and loss
Money Management
When the first take profit is achieved, half of the position is closed. The rest of the position is open to achieve either second take profit or stop loss.
There are three outcomes when using this strategy. Let's say you enter the trade with 200 lot size and you are risking 2% of your equity.
1. The first outcome is when the price hits stop loss, you lose the entire 2%.
2. The second outcome is when the price hits the first take profit and you close half of your position. Meaning that you have gained 1%. Then you let the trade running and eventually it hits stop loss. The total loss is 0% because the remaining lot size which is 200/2=100 times by 20pips is 1%. You have gained the earlier 1% and then loss 1%. At this point, you are at break even.
3. The third outcome is similar to the second out but instead of hiring stop loss, the trade is running to your favor and hits the second take profit.
Therefore, you gained 1% from the first take profit and you gained another 2% for the second take profit. Your total gained is 3%
Default Strategy Inputs (Forex / Crypto)The code in this post contains a set of default strategy inputs I use in new projects / backtests in Tradingview.
Full code commentary is available on the Backtest-Rookies website. To comply with house rules, I cannot post the direct link here.
Features
Trade Direction: So that you can limit the strategy for long only, short only or trade in both directions. It is important to note that when you select “Long Only”, you will still see Short signals on the chart. However, they are only used to close a position rather than reverse it. This is the default behaviour for strategies. The same applies to “Short Only”.
Date Ranges: So that you can isolate backtesting to specific periods of interest such as bull or bear markets.
Sessions: So you can easily get an idea of the expected results during your own session. You may also notice that performance of the strategy varies depending on which session it is deployed in.
Some example stop losses: It is not an exhaustive list but it should be enough to provide some inspiration for different types of stops that you can experiment with.
Happy Scripting. I hope the community finds it useful.

User Guide & คู่มือการใช้งาน
This document explains the settings and functions of the M3 SMC/ICT Scalp BUY,SELL/TP,SL CK2 indicator, allowing you to fully customize the strategy to fit your trading style.
**USE M3 For Best Profit**
User Guide
1. Timeframe Settings
Higher Timeframe (HTF) - For Main Structure
This sets the larger timeframe used to determine the main market direction (Order Flow). The strategy will look for trading opportunities on your current chart (LTF) that align with the trend on this HTF.
2. Market Structure Settings
Swing Lookback (HTF & LTF)
Defines the number of candles to the left and right of a pivot point to identify a Swing High or Swing Low. A smaller value makes the detection more sensitive and faster.
BOS/CHoCH Line Color
Customizes the colors for the Break of Structure (trend continuation) and Change of Character (potential reversal) lines on the chart.
3. Filter Settings
Allowed Trading Session
A powerful filter that restricts trades to a specific time window (e.g., London or New York session). The indicator will only look for signals within this defined period.
Volatility Filter (ATR)
Avoids trading in choppy, low-volatility markets. When enabled, it only allows trades if the current Average True Range (ATR) is higher than its moving average, indicating sufficient market movement.
ADX Trend Filter
Measures trend strength. When enabled, it only permits trades if the ADX value is above the set threshold (e.g., 20), ensuring you are trading in a trending market.
DI Cross Filter
Confirms the direction of the trend. It allows long trades only when the +DI line is above the -DI line, and short trades only when -DI is above +DI.
4. Trade Entry & Risk Management
Point of Interest (POI) Type
Allows you to choose the type of zone the strategy will use for entries:
Order Block: The last up/down candle before a strong move.
Fair Value Gap (FVG): A price inefficiency or imbalance.
Wick Zone: A zone created from a liquidity-grabbing candle wick.
Entry Type (Main Strategy)
Defines the exact condition for entering a trade within the selected POI zone, from aggressive (e.g., 25% of Zone) to conservative (e.g., Candle Confirmation).
Enable 'Wait Zone' (Entry on Return)
If enabled, the strategy will wait for the price to leave the POI and then return to it before triggering an entry. This is a more patient approach. If disabled, it will enter as soon as the price touches the POI after the setup is confirmed.
Enable Breakeven Stop Loss
A risk management tool. When a trade reaches a specified R-Multiple profit (e.g., 1R), the stop loss is automatically moved to the entry price, preventing a winning trade from turning into a loss.
Enable Counter-Strategy on TP/SL
An advanced feature that automatically opens a reverse position when a main trade hits its Take Profit or Stop Loss. This can be enabled separately for TP and SL events.
5. Visual Settings
Enable Anticipation Alerts
Solves the problem of late signals. When the script identifies a valid POI, it will alert you immediately, giving you time to prepare for the trade before the price returns to the zone.

ตัวกรองที่ทรงพลังที่สุด ใช้สำหรับจำกัดการเทรดให้อยู่ใน "ช่วงเวลา" ที่กำหนดเท่านั้น (เช่น ช่วงตลาดลอนดอนหรือนิวยอร์ก) อินดิเคเตอร์จะมองหาสัญญาณเฉพาะในกรอบเวลานี้
Volatility Filter (ATR)
หลีกเลี่ยงการเทรดในช่วงที่ตลาดผันผวนต่ำ (Sideways) เมื่อเปิดใช้งาน จะอนุญาตให้เทรดก็ต่อเมื่อค่าความผันผวน (ATR) ปัจจุบันสูงกว่าค่าเฉลี่ยของตัวมันเอง
ADX Trend Filter
ใช้วัดความแข็งแกร่งของแนวโน้ม เมื่อเปิดใช้งาน จะอนุญาตให้เทรดก็ต่อเมื่อค่า ADX สูงกว่าเกณฑ์ที่กำหนด ซึ่งหมายถึงตลาดกำลังมีแนวโน้มที่ชัดเจน

Enable 'Wait Zone' (Entry on Return)
หากเปิดใช้งาน สคริปต์จะรอให้ราคาวิ่งออกจากโซนไปก่อน แล้วจึงเข้าเทรดเมื่อราคาวิ่ง "กลับมา" ที่โซนอีกครั้ง เป็นสไตล์การเทรดที่อดทนรอมากขึ้น หากปิด จะเข้าเทรดทันทีที่ราคาเข้ามาในโซน
Enable Breakeven Stop Loss
เครื่องมือจัดการความเสี่ยง เมื่อเทรดของคุณทำกำไรไปถึงระดับ R-Multiple ที่กำหนด (เช่น 1R) สคริปต์จะเลื่อน Stop Loss มาที่จุดคุ้มทุน (ราคาเข้า) โดยอัตโนมัติ เพื่อป้องกันไม่ให้เทรดนั้นกลับมาขาดทุน

Smart Money Liquidity Zones ProThe Smart Money Liquidity Zones Pro indicator identifies and visualizes key liquidity areas in the market where institutional traders (smart money) are likely to have placed their stop-loss orders. These zones represent areas of high liquidity that often act as magnets for price, making them valuable reference points for trading decisions.
What the Indicator Does
Core Functionality
Swing Point Detection: The indicator identifies significant swing highs and lows using three different methods (Classic, Fractal, or Combined) to locate potential liquidity pools.
Liquidity Zone Creation: At each valid swing point, the indicator creates a horizontal zone representing an area where stop-loss orders are likely clustered.
Zone Clustering: When multiple swing points occur near the same price level, the indicator intelligently combines them into larger cluster zones, indicating stronger liquidity areas.
Volume Confirmation: The indicator can filter zones based on volume, showing only those swing points that occurred with significant trading volume.
Zone Break Detection: When price closes through a liquidity zone, the indicator marks it as "Liquidity Taken" and removes the zone from the chart.
Zone Types
Buy-Side Liquidity Zones (Green): Created at swing highs where short sellers' stop-losses are likely placed
Sell-Side Liquidity Zones (Red): Created at swing lows where long traders' stop-losses are likely placed
Trading Strategies
Basic Concepts
Liquidity Runs: Price often moves toward these zones to trigger stop-loss orders before reversing. This creates trading opportunities.
Support and Resistance: Unbroken liquidity zones can act as support (sell-side) or resistance (buy-side) levels.
Breakout Confirmation: When price breaks through a zone with strong momentum, it often continues in that direction.
Entry Strategies
Strategy 1: Liquidity Grab Reversa l
Wait for price to spike into a liquidity zone
Look for rejection candles (wicks) at the zone
Enter in the opposite direction after confirmation
Place stop-loss beyond the liquidity zone
Strategy 2: Zone Break Continuation
Wait for price to close decisively through a zone
Enter on the retest of the broken zone
Target the next liquidity zone in the direction of the break
Strategy 3: Zone Clustering Trade
Focus on areas with multiple overlapping zones (clusters)
These areas offer higher probability setups
Trade bounces from cluster zones with tighter risk management
Risk Management
Always use stop-losses beyond the liquidity zones
Consider the overall market context and trend
Zones on higher timeframes are generally more significant
Volume-confirmed zones have higher reliability

Tips for Effective Use
Start with default settings and adjust based on your trading style and timeframe
Use multiple timeframes to identify confluence between zones on different scales
Combine with other indicators like trend analysis or momentum oscillators
Pay attention to clusters as they represent stronger liquidity areas
Monitor volume-confirmed zones for higher probability setups
Adjust zone duration based on your trading timeframe (shorter for scalping, longer for swing trading)
Use the debug feature if zones aren't appearing to understand why
Keep the chart clean by limiting the number of visible zones
Common Issues and Solutions
No zones appearing:
Lower the Swing Strength setting

Support & Resistance AriesSupport & Resistance Aries
This indicator automatically identifies support and resistance levels based on the highest and lowest closing prices within a configurable period.
How it works:
The user sets a calculation period (default is 20 candles).
The indicator plots:
Green line = Support: lowest closing price within the period.
Red line = Resistance: highest closing price within the period.
Adjustable parameter:
Calculation Period (1 to 200): defines how many candles are used to find the price extremes.
Purpose:
Helps users quickly visualize dynamic support and resistance zones that adjust as price evolves, making it easier to identify areas for potential entries, exits, and stop placements.
Important:
This indicator should not be used as a standalone buy or sell signal, nor as a trend confirmation tool on its own.
It is recommended to use it in combination with other technical analysis tools such as MACD, RSI, Volume, Moving Averages, among others, for a more complete market view.
Disclaimer:
Investing involves financial risk. Be cautious with both profits and losses. Always define a stop loss to avoid larger losses if the trend reverses.
One of the golden rules in trading is: a trader should not lose more than 3% to 5% of their capital per trade. Protecting your capital should always be the priority.
MTS📊 MTS (Murrey Math System) Trading Strategy for TradingView 📊
Introduction:
This script implements the Murrey Math System (MTS), a market analysis tool based on a set of pivot points and price ranges, designed to help traders identify key levels of support and resistance.
MTS calculates key price levels based on historical price swings and helps identify price targets, stop-loss levels, and potential breakout zones.
The strategy also includes an adaptive bias panel, showing buy or sell suggestions based on current price action relative to Murrey Math levels.
Key Components:
1. Pivot Calculation and Conditions:
Pivot Lookback & Spikeyness Index:
The pivots: lookback/forward input defines how far back (and forward) the script looks to identify potential pivot points (high and low). A smaller value focuses on more recent swings, while larger values consider a broader range.
The Spikeyness Index (atrMult) allows you to adjust sensitivity to market spikes, utilizing the Average True Range (ATR) to detect sharp price movements that could indicate potential turning points.
Pivot Conditions:
isPivHigh and isPivLow detect local high and low pivot points, respectively.
Spiky Conditions: The spikyH and spikyL conditions filter out pivots that do not meet the spikiness criteria, which is based on ATR and moving averages.
2. Swing High and Swing Low Identification:
The script identifies and stores previous swing highs (HR_prev) and lows (LR_prev), updating them based on the current market structure.
3. Proprietary Calculation:
The propCalc input enables a proprietary calculation method for determining higher or lower levels beyond the typical Murrey Math levels, offering a more adaptive approach to price targets and support/resistance levels.
4. Murrey Math Lines (MML):
MML Calculation:
The code calculates a set of Murrey Math Lines (EightEight, FourEight, ZeroEight), which are key price levels based on the range of the price over a given time period. These levels represent major support and resistance zones, with the EightEight line indicating extremely overbought conditions and ZeroEight signaling deeply oversold conditions.
Level and Extension Lines:
The script also plots additional levels and extensions based on the range between HR and LR, representing key support/resistance levels. These levels are dynamically drawn on the chart, offering clear insights into where price might reverse or break out.
Strategy Logic:
- Breakout and Breakdown:
The Bias Box panel dynamically displays a trade bias, either suggesting to "Buy on Dip" or "Sell on Rise," depending on whether the current price is above or below the midpoint of the Murrey Math range (BEP). This bias is calculated using the market's relationship to the Murrey Math Levels.
- Buy on Dip: When the price is below the midpoint (BEP), suggesting the market is in a buying zone.
- Sell on Rise: When the price is above the midpoint, suggesting the market is in a selling zone.
- Stop-Loss and Target Hints:
The stop-loss (SL) and target levels are dynamically set based on the position relative to HR and LR:
For Buy on Dip: SL is set at LR Low, Target is set at HR High.
For sell on Rise: SL is set at HR Low, Target is set at LR High.
2. Historical and Current Levels:
The script compares the most recent Murrey Math levels with historical levels. This helps identify any shifts or changes in the market structure, enhancing the trader's ability to adapt to new trends.
- Current Levels:
The current levels are drawn from the most recent HR and LR values, with corresponding extensions showing possible breakout or breakdown zones.
- Historical Levels:
Historical levels are drawn in a "ghost" style, helping traders visualize past market conditions and potential support/resistance zones that could still influence price movement.
- Trade Examples:
Example 1: Buy on Dip
a. Scenario:
Price is below the midpoint (BEP), and the bias suggests a buy on dip.
The trader looks for a rebound from the LR Low level, with a target at the HR High.
b. Entry:
Buy when the price reaches the LR Low level.
c. Exit:
Take profit when the price hits the HR High.
d. Stop-Loss:
Place stop-loss at the LR Low.
Example 2: Sell on Rise
a. Scenario:
Price is above the midpoint (BEP), and the bias suggests a sell on rise.
The trader looks for a pullback to the HR Low, with a target at the LR High.
b. Entry:
Sell when the price reaches the HR High level.
c. Exit:
Take profit when the price hits the LR Low.
d. Stop-Loss:
Place stop-loss at the HR Low.
Key Features:
Bias Panel: A table in the top-right corner showing the current market bias (Buy on Dip, Sell on Rise, or Neutral).
Displays real-time trade direction and risk information, such as stop-loss and target hints.
Dynamic Level Adjustment: As the price moves, the script dynamically updates the key levels (HR, LR, and Murrey Math lines), keeping traders aware of the most recent market structure.
Visualization Tools:
The chart is populated with a series of lines and labels that indicate the critical price levels for trading.
Support/Resistance Lines: Each key level is marked with different colors for quick recognition.
Extensions: Additional lines are plotted based on price projections, indicating where the market could potentially move.
Note:
Please note that this is an educational purpose idea, any action/trade taken will be user's own responsibility.
Enjoy!
Regards.

It uses a blend of technical indicators to identify both bullish and bearish reversal setups, ensuring that multiple market conditions are met before entering a trade.
Core Components :
Technical Indicators Used :
RSI (Relative Strength Index) :
Purpose : Detects divergence conditions by comparing recent lows/highs in price with the RSI.
Parameter : Length of 8.
Bollinger Bands (BB) :
Purpose : Measures volatility and identifies price levels that are statistically extreme.
Parameter : Length of 20 and a 2-standard deviation multiplier.
ADX (Average Directional Index) & DMI (Directional Movement Index) :
Purpose : Quantifies the strength of the trend. The ADX threshold is set at 20, and additional filters check for the alignment of the directional indicators (DI+ and DI–).
ATR (Average True Range) :
Purpose : Provides a volatility measure used to set stop levels and determine risk through trailing stops.
Volume SMA (Simple Moving Average of Volume ):
Purpose : Helps confirm strength by comparing the current volume against a 20-period average, with an optional filter to ensure volume is at least twice the SMA.
User-Defined Toggle Filters :
Volume Filter : Confirms that the volume is above average (or twice the SMA) before taking trades.
ADX Trend Alignment Filter : Checks that the ADX’s directional indicators support the trade direction.
BB Close Confirmation : Optionally refines the entry by requiring price to be beyond the upper or lower Bollinger Band rather than just above or below.
RSI Divergence Exit : Allows the script to close positions if RSI divergence is detected.
BB Mean Reversion Exit : Closes positions if the price reverts to the Bollinger Bands’ middle line.
Risk/Reward Filter : Ensures that the potential reward is at least twice the risk by comparing the distance to the Bollinger Band with the ATR.
Candle Movement Filter : Optional filter to require a minimum percentage move in the candle to confirm momentum.
ADX Trend Exit : Closes positions if the ADX falls below the threshold and the directional indicators reverse.
Entry Conditions :
Bullish Entry :
RSI Divergence : Checks if the current close is lower than a previous low while the RSI is above the previous low, suggesting bullish divergence.
Bollinger Confirmation : Requires that the price is above the lower (or upper if confirmation is toggled) Bollinger Band.
Volume & Trend Filters : Combines volume condition, ADX strength, and an optional candle momentum condition.
Risk/Reward Check : Validates that the trade meets a favorable risk-to-reward ratio.
Bearish Entry :
Uses a mirror logic of the bullish entry by checking for bearish divergence, ensuring the price is below the appropriate Bollinger level, and confirming volume, trend strength, candle pattern, and risk/reward criteria.
Trade Execution and Exit Strateg y:
Trade Execution :
Upon meeting the entry conditions, the strategy initiates a long or short position.
Stop Loss & Trailing Stops :
A stop-loss is dynamically set using the ATR value, and trailing stops are implemented as a percentage of the close price.
Exit Conditions :
Additional exit filters can trigger early closures based on RSI divergence, mean reversion (via the middle Bollinger Band), or a weakening trend as signaled by ADX falling below its threshold.
This multi-layered exit strategy is designed to lock in gains or minimize losses if the market begins to reverse unexpectedly.
How the Strategy Works in Different Market Conditions :
Trending Markets :
The ADX filter ensures that trades are only taken when the trend is strong. When the market is trending, the directional movement indicators help confirm the momentum, making the reversal signal more reliable.
Ranging Markets :
In choppy markets, the Bollinger Bands expand and contract, while the RSI divergence can highlight potential turning points. The optional filters can be adjusted to avoid false signals in low-volume or low-volatility conditions.
Volatility Management :
With ATR-based stop-losses and a risk/reward filter, the strategy adapts to current market volatility, ensuring that risk is managed consistently.
Recommendation on using this Strategy with a Trading Bot :
This strategy is well-suited for high-frequency trading (HFT) due to its ability to quickly identify reversal setups and execute trades dynamically with automated stop-loss and trailing exits. By integrating this script with a TradingView webhook-based bot or an API-driven execution system, traders can automate trade entries and exits in real-time, reducing manual execution delays and capitalizing on fast market movements.

Prevents frequent entries by ensuring at least 30 candles pass before the next trade.
Improves signal quality and prevents excessive trading.
🎯 Target & Stop-Loss Calculation
✅ Buy Position:
Target: 2X the difference between the last candle’s close and the lowest low of the last 2 candles.
Stop Loss: The lowest low of the last 2 candles.
✅ Sell Position:
Target: 2X the difference between the last candle’s close and the highest high of the last 2 candles.
Stop Loss: The highest high of the last 2 candles.

Sniper Trade Pro (ES 15-Min) - Topstep Optimized🔹 Overview
Sniper Trade Pro is an advanced algorithmic trading strategy designed specifically for E-mini S&P 500 (ES) Futures on the 15-minute timeframe. This strategy is optimized for Topstep 50K evaluations, incorporating strict risk management to comply with their max $1,000 daily loss limit while maintaining a high probability of success.
It uses a multi-confirmation approach, integrating:
✅ Money Flow Divergence (MFD) → To track liquidity imbalances and institutional accumulation/distribution.
✅ Trend Confirmation (EMA + VWAP) → To identify strong trend direction and avoid choppy markets.
✅ ADX Strength Filter → To ensure entries only occur in trending conditions, avoiding weak setups.
✅ Break-Even & Dynamic Stop-Losses → To reduce drawdowns and protect profits dynamically.
This script automatically generates Buy and Sell signals and provides built-in risk management for automated trading execution through TradingView Webhooks.
🔹 How Does This Strategy Work?
📌 1. Trend Confirmation (EMA + VWAP)
The strategy uses:
✔ 9-EMA & 21-EMA: Fast-moving averages to detect short-term momentum.
✔ VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): Ensures trades align with institutional volume flow.
How it works:
Bullish Condition: 9-EMA above 21-EMA AND price above VWAP → Confirms buy trend.
Bearish Condition: 9-EMA below 21-EMA AND price below VWAP → Confirms sell trend.
📌 2. Liquidity & Money Flow Divergence (MFD)
This indicator measures liquidity shifts by tracking momentum changes in price and volume.
✔ MFD Calculation:
Uses Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of Momentum (MOM) to detect changes in buying/selling pressure.
If MFD is above its moving average, it signals liquidity inflows → bullish strength.
If MFD is below its moving average, it signals liquidity outflows → bearish weakness.
Why is this important?
Detects when Smart Money is accumulating or distributing before major moves.
Filters out false breakouts by confirming momentum strength before entry.
📌 3. Trade Entry Triggers (Candlestick Patterns & ADX Filter)
To avoid random entries, the strategy waits for specific candlestick confirmations with ADX trend strength:
✔ Bullish Entry (Buy Signal) → Requires:
Bullish Engulfing Candle (Reversal confirmation)
ADX > 20 (Ensures strong trending conditions)
MFD above its moving average (Liquidity inflows)
9-EMA > 21-EMA & price above VWAP (Trend confirmation)
✔ Bearish Entry (Sell Signal) → Requires:
Bearish Engulfing Candle (Reversal confirmation)
ADX > 20 (Ensures strong trending conditions)
MFD below its moving average (Liquidity outflows)
9-EMA < 21-EMA & price below VWAP (Trend confirmation)
📌 4. Risk Management & Profit Protection
This strategy is built with strict risk management to maintain low drawdowns and maximize profits:
✔ Dynamic Position Sizing → Automatically adjusts trade size to risk a fixed $400 per trade.
✔ Adaptive Stop-Losses → Uses ATR-based stop-loss (0.8x ATR) to adapt to market volatility.
✔ Take-Profit Targets → Fixed at 2x ATR for a Risk:Reward ratio of 2:1.
✔ Break-Even Protection → Moves stop-loss to entry once price moves 1x ATR in profit, locking in gains.
✔ Max Daily Loss Limit (-$1,000) → Stops trading if total losses exceed $1,000, complying with Topstep rules.
FVG Breakout Lite by tradingbauhausExplanation of "FVG Breakout Lite by tradingbauhaus"
This script is a trading strategy built for TradingView that helps you spot and trade "Fair Value Gaps" (FVGs)—price areas where the market moved quickly, leaving a gap that might act as support or resistance later. It’s designed to catch breakout opportunities when the price moves strongly in one direction, with extra filters to make trades more reliable. Here’s how it works and how you can use it:
What It Does
1. Finds Fair Value Gaps (FVGs):
A "Bullish FVG" happens when the price jumps up quickly, leaving a gap below where it didn’t trade much (e.g., today’s low is higher than the high from two bars ago).
A "Bearish FVG" is the opposite: the price drops fast, leaving a gap above (e.g., today’s high is lower than the low from two bars ago).
The script draws colored boxes on your chart to show these gaps: green for bullish, red for bearish.
2. Spots Breakouts:
It looks for "strong" FVGs by comparing them to a trend (based on the highest highs and lowest lows over a set period).
If a bullish gap forms above the recent highs, or a bearish gap below the recent lows, it’s marked as a breakout opportunity.
3. Adds a Volume Check:
Trades only happen if the market’s volume is higher than usual (e.g., 1.2x the average volume over the last 20 bars). This helps ensure the breakout has real momentum behind it.
4. Trades Automatically:
Long Trades (Buy): If a bullish breakout FVG forms and volume is high, it buys at the current price.
Short Trades (Sell): If a bearish breakout FVG forms with high volume, it sells short.
Each trade comes with a stop loss (to limit losses) and a take profit (to lock in gains), both adjustable by you.
5. Shows Mitigation Lines (Optional):
If you turn on "Display Mitigation Zones," it draws lines at the edge of each breakout FVG. These lines show where the price might return to "fill" the gap later, helping you see key levels.
6. Includes Webull Costs:
The script factors in real trading fees from Webull, like tiny SEC and FINRA fees for selling, and a daily margin cost if you’re borrowing money to trade. These don’t show up on the chart but affect the strategy’s performance in backtesting.
How to Use It
1. Add to Your Chart:
Copy the script into TradingView’s Pine Editor, click "Add to Chart," and it’ll start drawing FVGs and running the strategy.
2. Customize Settings:
Trend Period (Default: 25): How many bars it looks back to define the trend. Longer periods mean fewer but stronger signals.
Volume Lookback (Default: 20) & Volume Threshold (Default: 1.2): Adjust how it measures "high volume." Increase the threshold for stricter trades.
Stop Loss % (Default: 1.5%) & Take Profit % (Default: 3%): Set how much you’re willing to lose or aim to gain per trade.
Margin Rate % (Default: 8.74%): Webull’s rate for borrowing money—lower it if your account qualifies for a better rate.
Display Mitigation Zones (Default: On): Toggle this to see or hide the gap lines.
Colors: Change the green (bullish) and red (bearish) shades to suit your chart.
3. Backtest It:
Go to the "Strategy Tester" tab in TradingView to see how it performs on past data. It’ll show trades, profits, losses, and Webull fees included.
4. Watch It Work:
Green boxes mean bullish FVGs; red boxes mean bearish FVGs. If volume spikes and the price breaks out, you’ll see trades happen automatically.
What to Expect
Visuals: You’ll see colored boxes for FVGs and optional lines showing where they start. These help you spot key price zones even if you’re not trading.
Trades: It’s selective—only trades when FVGs align with a breakout and volume confirms it. Expect fewer trades but with higher potential.
Risk: The stop loss keeps losses in check, while the take profit aims for a 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio by default (3% gain vs. 1.5% loss).
Costs: Webull’s fees are small but baked into the results, so you’re seeing a realistic picture of profits.
Tips for Users
Test it on a small timeframe (like 5-minute charts) for day trading or a larger one (like daily) for swing trading.
Play with the volume threshold—if you get too few trades, lower it (e.g., 1.1); if too many, raise it (e.g., 1.5).
Watch how price reacts to the mitigation lines—they’re often support or resistance zones traders target.
This strategy is lightweight, focused, and built for traders who like breakouts with a bit of confirmation. It’s not foolproof (no strategy is!), but it gives you a clear way to trade FVGs with some smart filters.
IronBot v4IronBot v4 – Trading Strategy Overview
1. Quick Context
IronBot v4 is a trading strategy designed for users who want a simple yet effective approach to reading the markets. It uses a combination of Fibonacci retracement levels, custom logic triggers, and innovative modules (EMA validation, Iron Impulse Shield and Iron Auto Volume Detector) to identify potential entry and exit points, strengthening the strategy’s detection of sudden market volatility or shifts in trading volume.
2. Theoretical Details
Fibonacci Analysis
The script identifies recent market highs and lows, then calculates key Fibonacci levels (high- and low-based). These levels can help confirm potential reversals or trends.
EMA Option
When enabled, the exponential moving average (EMA) offers additional validation for trade entries. If the current price remains above a certain EMA threshold, long positions may be favored; conversely, if it stays below the EMA, short positions may be initiated.
IIS (Iron Impulse Shield)
IIS helps to filter out risky trades by measuring recent price shocks or surges. If an extreme movement is detected, the strategy may temporarily disable longs or shorts to avoid false signals.
IAVD (Iron Auto Volume Detector)
This functionality automatically detects the average market volume over a defined period (regardless of the market, since it relies on real data). When entering a position, it ensures that overall volume is high enough to confirm a genuinely active, robust market. By providing an additional filter, it can strengthen the decision-making process whenever the market’s participation level is in question.
Panel
IronBot v4 displays a real-time backtest panel that summarizes the selected configuration (including the current pair, analysis window, enabled filters), as well as showing net profit, applicable exchange fees, country taxes, and the final net balance. This gives traders an immediate overview of strategy performance and risk metrics.
What Pinescript Adds Visually
The script plots:
Fibonacci levels (highlighting potential reversal zones)
Trend lines indicating bullish (green) or bearish (red) lean
Optional EMA line
Optional Fibonacci forecast lines for anticipating future moves
Automatic labeling of entry, take-profit, and stop-loss levels, indicating the profit percentage of each trade.
3. Explanation of Inputs
The strategy exposes multiple inputs that can be toggled or configured by the user:
Analysis Window : Dictates how many bars to consider for high/low calculations and the fib retracement thresholds.
TRADES
Display TP/SL: For displaying Take profits and Stop loss.
Display Forecast: When enabled, this feature calculates and projects possible future Fibonacci retracements using historical data, helping traders anticipate potential upcoming trade setups.
Leverage: Only used for the Panel and not for trades. Lets you amplify your position size; higher leverage increases potential gains but also heightens risk. TradingView strategy is using properties for doing this.
Exchange Maker Fees & Exchange Taker Fees: Only used for the Panel and not for trades. Define the percentage cost applied by your exchange for maker and taker trades, respectively. These fees are accounted for in final profit calculations of the Panel.
Country Tax: Only used for the Panel and not for trades. Specifies a tax percentage to be deducted from net profits.
STOP LOSS and TAKE PROFITS
Stop-Loss & Take-Profit Parameters: Controls the percentage distances at which the strategy will exit positions. Additionally, you can configure up to four distinct take-profit levels (TP1 through TP4). Each level should be higher target than the previous one, and you can assign a specific percentage of the total position to close at each TP, ensuring the sum equals 100%. A break-even feature is also available when multiple TPs are used.
EMA
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) Option: When enabled, the strategy opens long trades only if the current price is above the specified EMA length, and opens short trades only if it is below that threshold.
PANELS
Show Panel: For displaying the backtest integrated panel.
IRON IMPULSE SHIELD (IIS)
IIS (Iron Impulse Shield) Option: When enabled, IIS continuously monitors recent price volatility depending on the analysis window set. If the market experiences an extreme surge or drop beyond a specified threshold, IIS temporarily blocks new long or short positions.
IRON AUTO VOLUME DETECTOR (IAVD)
IAVD (Iron Auto Volume Detector) Option: When enabled, it continuously measures the average market volume over a special period, irrespective of the specific trading pair. This ensures that IronBot v4 focuses on markets with robust participation, reducing the likelihood of entering trades during low-liquidity conditions.
By changing these values, IronBot v4 reacts differently to market structure and risk management requirements. Stop-loss and take-profit levels will adjust accordingly, while advanced filters (like EMA or IIS) influence when trades can open.
4. TradingView Strategy Properties
IronBot v4 uses the built-in TradingView “strategy” functionality. In particular:
Order Placement: The code calls strategy.entry() and strategy.close() for direct orders, ensuring signals are sent immediately (no limit orders are used). This helps connect with exchange signal bots for automated execution.
Initial Capital: The code uses initial capital defined in properties for calculating Net balance in the integrated panel.
On bar close: This strategy fill orders on bar close.
Pyramiding: This strategy can take only 1 successive trade in the same direction
Be careful to configure your leverage input depending on your strategy properties.
