Understanding Market Dynamics Through MACD Boundary PSA
At its core, this indicator provides a unique lens to visualize market momentum and boundaries:
1. Momentum Strength: The histogram height/depth shows the strength of current momentum, with color intensity providing additional context about acceleration or deceleration.
2. Dynamic Boundaries: The marker lines create a visual representation of the "high water marks" of momentum in both directions, helping to identify when markets are making new momentum extremes.
3. Exhaustion Signals: The peak detection system highlights moments where momentum has reached a local maximum or minimum, often precursors to reversals or consolidations.
4. Trend Confirmation: The histogram color and intensity provide instant feedback about the current trend direction and strength, with special colors highlighting particularly significant moves.
Remember:
- Combine signals from histogram, marker lines, and peak formations
- Use appropriate timeframe settings for your trading style
- Customize the indicator to match your visual preferences
- Consider market conditions and correlate with price action
This indicator works best when:
- Used as part of a comprehensive trading system
- Combined with proper risk management
- Applied with an understanding of current market conditions
- Signals are confirmed by price action and other indicators

RSI3M3+ v.1.8RSI3M3+ v.1.8 Indicator
This script is an advanced trading indicator based on Walter J. Bressert's cycle analysis methodology, combined with an RSI (Relative Strength Index) variation. Let me break it down and explain how it works.
Core Concepts
The RSI3M3+ indicator combines:
A short-term RSI (3-period)
A 3-period moving average to smooth the RSI
Bressert's cycle analysis principles to identify optimal trading points
RSI3M3+ Indicator VisualizationImage Walter J. Bressert's Cycle Analysis Concepts
Walter Bressert was a pioneer in cycle analysis trading who believed markets move in cyclical patterns that can be measured and predicted. His key principles integrated into this indicator include:
Trading Cycles: Markets move in cycles with measurable time spans from low to low
Timing Bands: Projected periods when the next cyclical low or high is anticipated
Oscillator Use: Using oscillators like RSI to confirm cycle position
Entry/Exit Rules: Specific rules for trade entry and exit based on cycle position
Key Parameters in the Script
Basic RSI Parameters
Required bars: Minimum number of bars needed (default: 20)
Overbought region: RSI level considered overbought (default: 70)
Oversold region: RSI level considered oversold (default: 30)
Bressert-Specific Parameters
Cycle Detection Length: Lookback period for cycle identification (default: 30)
Minimum/Maximum Cycle Length: Expected cycle duration in days (default: 15-30)
Buy Line: Lower threshold for buy signals (default: 40)
Sell Line: Upper threshold for sell signals (default: 60)
How the Indicator Works
RSI3M3 Calculation:
Calculates a 3-period RSI (sRSI)
Smooths it with a 3-period moving average (sMA)
Cycle Detection:
Identifies bottoms: When the RSI is below the buy line (40) and starting to turn up
Identifies tops: When the RSI is above the sell line (60) and starting to turn down
Records these points to calculate cycle lengths
Timing Bands:
Projects when the next cycle bottom or top should occur
Creates visual bands on the chart showing these expected time windows
Signal Generation:
Buy signals occur when the RSI turns up from below the oversold level (30)
Sell signals occur when the RSI turns down from above the overbought level (70)
Enhanced by Bressert's specific timing rules
Bressert's Five Trading Rules (Implemented in the Script)
Cycle Timing: The low must be 15-30 market days from the previous Trading Cycle bottom
Prior Top Validation: A Trading Cycle high must have occurred with the oscillator above 60
Oscillator Behavior: The oscillator must drop below 40 and turn up
Entry Trigger: Entry is triggered by a rise above the price high of the upturn day
Protective Stop: Place stop slightly below the Trading Cycle low (implemented as 99% of bottom price)
How to Use the Indicator
Reading the Chart
Main Plot Area:
Green line: 3-period RSI
Red line: 3-period moving average of the RSI
Horizontal bands: Oversold (30) and Overbought (70) regions
Dotted lines: Buy line (40) and Sell line (60)
Yellow vertical bands: Projected timing windows for next cycle bottom
Signals:
Green up arrows: Buy signals
Red down arrows: Sell signals
Trading Strategy
For Buy Signals:
Wait for the RSI to drop below the buy line (40)
Look for an upturn in the RSI from below this level
Enter the trade when price rises above the high of the upturn day
Place a protective stop at 99% of the Trading Cycle low
For Sell Signals:
Wait for the RSI to rise above the sell line (60)
Look for a downturn in the RSI from above this level
Consider exiting or taking profits when a sell signal appears
Alternative exit: When price moves below the low of the downturn day
Cycle Timing Enhancement:
Pay attention to the yellow timing bands
Signals occurring within these bands have higher probability of success
Signals outside these bands may be less reliable
Practical Tips for Using RSI3M3+
Timeframe Selection:
The indicator works best on daily charts for intermediate-term trading
Can be used on weekly charts for longer-term position trading
On intraday charts, adjust cycle lengths accordingly
Market Applicability:
Works well in trending markets with clear cyclical behavior
Less effective in choppy, non-trending markets
Consider additional indicators for trend confirmation
Parameter Adjustment:
Different markets may have different natural cycle lengths
You may need to adjust the min/max cycle length parameters
Higher volatility markets may need wider overbought/oversold levels
Trade Management:
Enter trades when all Bressert's conditions are met
Use the protective stop as defined (99% of cycle low)
Consider taking partial profits at the projected cycle high timing
Advanced Techniques
Multiple Timeframe Analysis:
Confirm signals with the same indicator on higher timeframes
Enter in the direction of the larger cycle when smaller and larger cycles align
Divergence Detection:
Look for price making new lows while RSI makes higher lows (bullish)
Look for price making new highs while RSI makes lower highs (bearish)
Confluence with Price Action:
Combine with support/resistance levels
Use with candlestick patterns for confirmation
Consider volume confirmation of cycle turns
This RSI3M3+ indicator combines the responsiveness of a short-term RSI with the predictive power of Bressert's cycle analysis, offering traders a sophisticated tool for identifying high-probability trading opportunities based on market cycles and momentum shifts.

PowerZone Trading StrategyExplanation of the PowerZone Trading Strategy for Your Users
The PowerZone Trading Strategy is an automated trading strategy that detects strong price movements (called "PowerZones") and generates signals to enter a long (buy) or short (sell) position, complete with predefined take profit and stop loss levels. Here’s how it works, step by step:
1. What is a PowerZone?
A "PowerZone" (PZ) is a zone on the chart where the price has shown a significant and consistent movement over a specific number of candles (bars). There are two types:
Bullish PowerZone (Bullish PZ): Occurs when the price rises consistently over several candles after an initial bearish candle.
Bearish PowerZone (Bearish PZ): Occurs when the price falls consistently over several candles after an initial bullish candle.
The code analyzes:
A set number of candles (e.g., 5, adjustable via "Periods").
A minimum percentage move (adjustable via "Min % Move for PowerZone") to qualify as a strong zone.
Whether to use the full candle range (highs and lows) or just open/close prices (toggle with "Use Full Range ").
2. How Does It Detect PowerZones?
Bullish PowerZone:
Looks for an initial bearish candle (close below open).
Checks that the next candles (e.g., 5) are all bullish (close above open).
Ensures the total price movement exceeds the minimum percentage set.
Defines a range: from the high (or open) to the low of the initial candle.
Bearish PowerZone:
Looks for an initial bullish candle (close above open).
Checks that the next candles are all bearish (close below open).
Ensures the total price movement exceeds the minimum percentage.
Defines a range: from the high to the low (or close) of the initial candle.
These zones are drawn on the chart with lines: green or white for bullish, red or blue for bearish, depending on the color scheme ("DARK" or "BRIGHT").
3. When Does It Enter a Trade?
The strategy waits for a breakout from the PowerZone range to enter a trade:
Buy (Long): When the price breaks above the high of a Bullish PowerZone.
Sell (Short): When the price breaks below the low of a Bearish PowerZone.
The position size is set to 100% of available equity (adjustable in the code).
4. Take Profit and Stop Loss
Take Profit (TP): Calculated as a multiple (adjustable via "Take Profit Factor," default 1.5) of the PowerZone height. For example:
For a buy, TP = Entry price + (PZ height × 1.5).
For a sell, TP = Entry price - (PZ height × 1.5).
Stop Loss (SL): Calculated as a multiple (adjustable via "Stop Loss Factor," default 1.0) of the PZ height, placed below the range for buys or above for sells.
5. Visualization on the Chart
PowerZones are displayed with lines on the chart (you can hide them with "Show Bullish Channel" or "Show Bearish Channel").
An optional info panel ("Show Info Panel") displays key levels: PZ high and low, TP, and SL.
You can also enable brief documentation on the chart ("Show Documentation") explaining the basic rules.
6. Alerts
The code generates automatic alerts in TradingView:
For a bullish breakout: "Bullish PowerZone Breakout - LONG!"
For a bearish breakdown: "Bearish PowerZone Breakdown - SHORT!"
7. Customization
You can tweak:
The number of candles to detect a PZ ("Periods").
The minimum percentage move ("Min % Move").
Whether to use highs/lows or just open/close ("Use Full Range").
The TP and SL factors.
The color scheme and what elements to display on the chart.
Practical Example
Imagine you set "Periods = 5" and "Min % Move = 2%":
An initial bearish candle appears, followed by 5 consecutive bullish candles.
The total move exceeds 2%.
A Bullish PowerZone is drawn with a high and low.
If the price breaks above the high, you enter a long position with a TP 1.5 times the PZ height and an SL equal to the height below.
The system executes the trade and exits automatically at TP or SL.
Conclusion
This strategy is great for capturing strong price movements after consolidation or momentum zones. It’s automated, visual, and customizable, making it useful for both beginner and advanced traders. Try it out and adjust it to fit your trading style!
External Signals Strategy TesterExternal Signals Strategy Tester
This strategy is designed to help you backtest external buy/sell signals coming from another indicator on your chart. It is a flexible and powerful tool that allows you to simulate real trading based on signals generated by any indicator, using input.source connections.
🔧 How It Works
Instead of generating signals internally, this strategy listens to two external input sources:
One for buy signals
One for sell signals
These sources can be connected to the plots from another indicator (for example, custom indicators, signal lines, or logic-based plots).
To use this:
Add your indicator to the chart (it must be visible on the same pane as this strategy).
Open the settings of the strategy.
In the fields Buy Signal and Sell Signal, select the appropriate plot (line, value, etc.) from the indicator that represents the buy/sell logic.
The strategy will open positions when the selected buy signal crosses above 0, and sell signal crosses above 0.
This logic can be easily adapted by modifying the crossover rule inside the script if your signal style is different.
⚙️ Features Included
✅ Configurable trade direction:
You can choose whether to allow long trades, short trades, or both.
✅ Optional close on opposite signal:
When enabled, the strategy will exit the current position if an opposite signal appears.
✅ Optional full position reversal:
When enabled, the strategy will close the current position and immediately open an opposite one on the reverse signal.
✅ Risk Management Tools:
You can define:
Take Profit (TP): Position will be closed once the specified profit (in %) is reached.
Stop Loss (SL): Position will be closed if the price drops to the specified loss level (in %).
BreakEven (BE): Once the specified profit threshold is reached, the strategy will move the stop-loss to the entry price.
📌 If any of these values (TP, SL, BE) are set to 0, the feature is disabled and will not be applied.
🧪 Best Use Cases
Backtesting signals from custom indicators, without rewriting the logic into a strategy.
Comparing the performance of different signal sources.
Testing external indicators with optional position management logic.
Validating strategies using external filters, oscillators, or trend signals.
📌 Final Notes
You can visualize where the strategy detected buy/sell signals using green/red markers on the chart.
All parameters are customizable through the strategy settings panel.
This strategy does not repaint, and it processes signals in real-time only (no lookahead bias).

ATR SL and TP with Candle Freeze & DataWindowThis indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to automatically calculate your stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels based on the current market volatility and your chosen multipliers. Here's how it works:
ATR Calculation:
The indicator computes the ATR, which measures the average market volatility over a set period. This value helps gauge how much the price typically moves.
SL and TP Determination:
Depending on whether you're in a long or short trade, the SL and TP are calculated relative to the current price:
For a long trade, the stop loss is set below the current price (by subtracting a multiple of the ATR) and the take profit is set above it (by adding a multiple of the ATR).
For a short trade, the calculations are reversed.
Candle Freeze Feature:
Once a new candle starts, the calculated SL and TP values are "frozen" for that candle. This means they remain constant during the candle's formation, preventing them from updating continuously as the price fluctuates. This can make it easier to plan your trades without the levels shifting mid-candle.
Data Window & Labels:
The SL and TP values are plotted on the chart as lines and displayed in labels for quick reference. Additionally, they appear in TradingView's Data Window, so you can easily copy the price numbers if needed.
Overall, the indicator is designed to help you manage your trades by setting dynamic, volatility-adjusted SL and TP levels that only update at the start of each new candle, aligning with your chosen timeframe. Let me know if you have any more questions or need further adjustments!
Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI)The Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI) is a momentum oscillator designed for TradingView, implemented in Pine Script v6, that enhances the traditional Relative Strength Index (RSI) by incorporating trading volume into its calculation. Unlike the standard RSI, which measures the speed and change of price movements based solely on price data, the VW RSI weights its analysis by volume, emphasizing price movements backed by significant trading activity. This makes the VW RSI particularly effective for identifying bullish or bearish momentum, overbought/oversold conditions, and potential trend reversals in markets where volume plays a critical role, such as stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
Key Features
Volume-Weighted Momentum Calculation:
The VW RSI calculates momentum by comparing the volume associated with upward price movements (up-volume) to the volume associated with downward price movements (down-volume).
Up-volume is the volume on bars where the closing price is higher than the previous close, while down-volume is the volume on bars where the closing price is lower than the previous close.
These volumes are smoothed over a user-defined period (default: 14 bars) using a Running Moving Average (RMA), and the VW RSI is computed using the formula:
\text{VW RSI} = 100 - \frac{100}{1 + \text{VoRS}}
where
\text{VoRS} = \frac{\text{Average Up-Volume}}{\text{Average Down-Volume}}
.
Oscillator Range and Interpretation:
The VW RSI oscillates between 0 and 100, with a centerline at 50.
Above 50: Indicates bullish volume momentum, suggesting that volume on up bars dominates, which may signal buying pressure and a potential uptrend.
Below 50: Indicates bearish volume momentum, suggesting that volume on down bars dominates, which may signal selling pressure and a potential downtrend.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: User-defined thresholds (default: 70 for overbought, 30 for oversold) help identify potential reversal points:
VW RSI > 70: Overbought, indicating a possible pullback or reversal.
VW RSI < 30: Oversold, indicating a possible bounce or reversal.
Visual Elements:
VW RSI Line: Plotted in a separate pane below the price chart, colored dynamically based on its value:
Green when above 50 (bullish momentum).
Red when below 50 (bearish momentum).
Gray when at 50 (neutral).
Centerline: A dashed line at 50, optionally displayed, serving as the neutral threshold between bullish and bearish momentum.
Overbought/Oversold Lines: Dashed lines at the user-defined overbought (default: 70) and oversold (default: 30) levels, optionally displayed, to highlight extreme conditions.
Background Coloring: The background of the VW RSI pane is shaded red when the indicator is in overbought territory and green when in oversold territory, providing a quick visual cue of potential reversal zones.
Alerts:
Built-in alerts for key events:
Bullish Momentum: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses above 50, indicating a shift to bullish volume momentum.
Bearish Momentum: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses below 50, indicating a shift to bearish volume momentum.
Overbought Condition: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses above the overbought threshold (default: 70), signaling a potential pullback.
Oversold Condition: Triggered when the VW RSI crosses below the oversold threshold (default: 30), signaling a potential bounce.
Input Parameters
VW RSI Length (default: 14): The period over which the up-volume and down-volume are smoothed to calculate the VW RSI. A longer period results in smoother signals, while a shorter period increases sensitivity.
Overbought Level (default: 70): The threshold above which the VW RSI is considered overbought, indicating a potential reversal or pullback.
Oversold Level (default: 30): The threshold below which the VW RSI is considered oversold, indicating a potential reversal or bounce.
Show Centerline (default: true): Toggles the display of the 50 centerline, which separates bullish and bearish momentum zones.
Show Overbought/Oversold Lines (default: true): Toggles the display of the overbought and oversold threshold lines.
How It Works
Volume Classification:
For each bar, the indicator determines whether the price movement is upward or downward:
If the current close is higher than the previous close, the bar’s volume is classified as up-volume.
If the current close is lower than the previous close, the bar’s volume is classified as down-volume.
If the close is unchanged, both up-volume and down-volume are set to 0 for that bar.
Smoothing:
The up-volume and down-volume are smoothed using a Running Moving Average (RMA) over the specified period (default: 14 bars) to reduce noise and provide a more stable measure of volume momentum.
VW RSI Calculation:
The Volume Relative Strength (VoRS) is calculated as the ratio of smoothed up-volume to smoothed down-volume.
The VW RSI is then computed using the standard RSI formula, but with volume data instead of price changes, resulting in a value between 0 and 100.
Visualization and Alerts:
The VW RSI is plotted with dynamic coloring to reflect its momentum direction, and optional lines are drawn for the centerline and overbought/oversold levels.
Background coloring highlights overbought and oversold conditions, and alerts notify the trader of significant crossings.
Usage
Timeframe: The VW RSI can be used on any timeframe, but it is particularly effective on intraday charts (e.g., 1-hour, 4-hour) or daily charts where volume data is reliable. Shorter timeframes may require a shorter length for increased sensitivity, while longer timeframes may benefit from a longer length for smoother signals.
Markets: Best suited for markets with significant and reliable volume data, such as stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies. It may be less effective in markets with low or inconsistent volume, such as certain futures contracts.
Trading Strategies:
Trend Confirmation:
Use the VW RSI to confirm the direction of a trend. For example, in an uptrend, look for the VW RSI to remain above 50, indicating sustained bullish volume momentum, and consider buying on pullbacks when the VW RSI dips but stays above 50.
In a downtrend, look for the VW RSI to remain below 50, indicating sustained bearish volume momentum, and consider selling on rallies when the VW RSI rises but stays below 50.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions:
When the VW RSI crosses above 70, the market may be overbought, suggesting a potential pullback or reversal. Consider taking profits on long positions or preparing for a short entry, but confirm with price action or other indicators.
When the VW RSI crosses below 30, the market may be oversold, suggesting a potential bounce or reversal. Consider entering long positions or covering shorts, but confirm with additional signals.
Divergences:
Look for divergences between the VW RSI and price to spot potential reversals. For example, if the price makes a higher high but the VW RSI makes a lower high, this bearish divergence may signal an impending downtrend.
Conversely, if the price makes a lower low but the VW RSI makes a higher low, this bullish divergence may signal an impending uptrend.
Momentum Shifts:
A crossover above 50 can signal the start of bullish momentum, making it a potential entry point for long trades.
A crossunder below 50 can signal the start of bearish momentum, making it a potential entry point for short trades or an exit for long positions.
Example
On a 4-hour SOLUSDT chart:
During an uptrend, the VW RSI might rise above 50 and stay there, confirming bullish volume momentum. If it approaches 70, it may indicate overbought conditions, as seen near a price peak of 145.08, suggesting a potential pullback.
During a downtrend, the VW RSI might fall below 50, confirming bearish volume momentum. If it drops below 30 near a price low of 141.82, it may indicate oversold conditions, suggesting a potential bounce, as seen in a slight recovery afterward.
A bullish divergence might occur if the price makes a lower low during the downtrend, but the VW RSI makes a higher low, signaling a potential reversal.
Limitations
Lagging Nature: Like the traditional RSI, the VW RSI is a lagging indicator because it relies on smoothed data (RMA). It may not react quickly to sudden price reversals, potentially missing the start of new trends.
False Signals in Ranging Markets: In choppy or ranging markets, the VW RSI may oscillate around 50, generating frequent crossovers that lead to false signals. Combining it with a trend filter (e.g., ADX) can help mitigate this.
Volume Data Dependency: The VW RSI relies on accurate volume data, which may be inconsistent or unavailable in some markets (e.g., certain forex pairs or futures contracts). In such cases, the indicator’s effectiveness may be reduced.
Overbought/Oversold in Strong Trends: During strong trends, the VW RSI can remain in overbought or oversold territory for extended periods, leading to premature exit signals. Use additional confirmation to avoid exiting too early.
Potential Improvements
Smoothing Options: Add options to use different smoothing methods (e.g., EMA, SMA) instead of RMA for the up/down volume calculations, allowing users to adjust the indicator’s responsiveness.
Divergence Detection: Include logic to detect and plot bullish/bearish divergences between the VW RSI and price, providing visual cues for potential reversals.
Customizable Colors: Allow users to customize the colors of the VW RSI line, centerline, overbought/oversold lines, and background shading.
Trend Filter: Integrate a trend strength filter (e.g., ADX > 25) to ensure signals are generated only during strong trends, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
The Volume Weighted RSI (VW RSI) is a powerful tool for traders seeking to incorporate volume into their momentum analysis, offering a unique perspective on market dynamics by emphasizing price movements backed by significant trading activity. It is best used in conjunction with other indicators and price action analysis to confirm signals and improve trading decisions.

If volume is high and price moves strongly in the same direction → Trend is likely to continue.
Trendline Breaks with Multi Fibonacci Supertrend StrategyTMFS Strategy: Advanced Trendline Breakouts with Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend
Elevate your algorithmic trading with institutional-grade signal confluence
Strategy Genesis & Evolution
This advanced trading system represents the culmination of a personal research journey, evolving from my custom " Multi Fibonacci Supertrend with Signals " indicator into a comprehensive trading strategy. Built upon the exceptional trendline detection methodology pioneered by LuxAlgo in their " Trendlines with Breaks " indicator, I've engineered a systematic framework that integrates multiple technical factors into a cohesive trading system.
Core Fibonacci Principles
At the heart of this strategy lies the Fibonacci sequence application to volatility measurement:
// Fibonacci-based factors for multiple Supertrend calculations
factor1 = input.float(0.618, 'Factor 1 (Weak/Fibonacci)', minval = 0.01, step = 0.01)
factor2 = input.float(1.618, 'Factor 2 (Medium/Golden Ratio)', minval = 0.01, step = 0.01)
factor3 = input.float(2.618, 'Factor 3 (Strong/Extended Fib)', minval = 0.01, step = 0.01)
These precise Fibonacci ratios create a dynamic volatility envelope that adapts to changing market conditions while maintaining mathematical harmony with natural price movements.
Dynamic Trendline Detection
The strategy incorporates LuxAlgo's pioneering approach to trendline detection:
// Pivotal swing detection (inspired by LuxAlgo)
pivot_high = ta.pivothigh(swing_length, swing_length)
pivot_low = ta.pivotlow(swing_length, swing_length)
// Dynamic slope calculation using ATR
slope = atr_value / swing_length * atr_multiplier
// Update trendlines based on pivot detection
if bool(pivot_high)
upper_slope := slope
upper_trendline := pivot_high
else
upper_trendline := nz(upper_trendline) - nz(upper_slope)
This adaptive trendline approach automatically identifies key structural market boundaries, adjusting in real-time to evolving chart patterns.
Breakout State Management
The strategy implements sophisticated state tracking for breakout detection:
// Track breakouts with state variables
var int upper_breakout_state = 0
var int lower_breakout_state = 0
// Update breakout state when price crosses trendlines
upper_breakout_state := bool(pivot_high) ? 0 : close > upper_trendline ? 1 : upper_breakout_state
lower_breakout_state := bool(pivot_low) ? 0 : close < lower_trendline ? 1 : lower_breakout_state
// Detect new breakouts (state transitions)
bool new_upper_breakout = upper_breakout_state > upper_breakout_state
bool new_lower_breakout = lower_breakout_state > lower_breakout_state
This state-based approach enables precise identification of the exact moment when price breaks through a significant trendline.
Multi-Factor Signal Confluence
Entry signals require confirmation from multiple technical factors:
// Define entry conditions with multi-factor confluence
long_entry_condition = enable_long_positions and
upper_breakout_state > upper_breakout_state and // New trendline breakout
di_plus > di_minus and // Bullish DMI confirmation
close > smoothed_trend // Price above Supertrend envelope
// Execute trades only with full confirmation
if long_entry_condition
strategy.entry('L', strategy.long, comment = "LONG")
This strict requirement for confluence significantly reduces false signals and improves the quality of trade entries.
Advanced Risk Management
The strategy includes sophisticated risk controls with multiple methodologies:
// Calculate stop loss based on selected method
get_long_stop_loss_price(base_price) =>
switch stop_loss_method
'PERC' => base_price * (1 - long_stop_loss_percent)
'ATR' => base_price - long_stop_loss_atr_multiplier * entry_atr
'RR' => base_price - (get_long_take_profit_price() - base_price) / long_risk_reward_ratio
=> na
// Implement trailing functionality
strategy.exit(
id = 'Long Take Profit / Stop Loss',
from_entry = 'L',
qty_percent = take_profit_quantity_percent,
limit = trailing_take_profit_enabled ? na : long_take_profit_price,
stop = long_stop_loss_price,
trail_price = trailing_take_profit_enabled ? long_take_profit_price : na,
trail_offset = trailing_take_profit_enabled ? long_trailing_tp_step_ticks : na,
comment = "TP/SL Triggered"
)
This flexible approach adapts to varying market conditions while providing comprehensive downside protection.
Performance Characteristics
Rigorous backtesting demonstrates exceptional capital appreciation potential with impressive risk-adjusted metrics:
Remarkable total return profile (1,517%+)
Strong Sortino ratio (3.691) indicating superior downside risk control
Profit factor of 1.924 across all trades (2.153 for long positions)
Win rate exceeding 35% with balanced distribution across varied market conditions
Institutional Considerations
The strategy architecture addresses execution complexities faced by institutional participants with temporal filtering and date-range capabilities:
// Time Filter settings with flexible timezone support
import jason5480/time_filters/5 as time_filter
src_timezone = input.string(defval = 'Exchange', title = 'Source Timezone')
dst_timezone = input.string(defval = 'Exchange', title = 'Destination Timezone')
// Date range filtering for precise execution windows
use_from_date = input.bool(defval = true, title = 'Enable Start Date')
from_date = input.time(defval = timestamp('01 Jan 2022 00:00'), title = 'Start Date')
// Validate trading permission based on temporal constraints
date_filter_approved = time_filter.is_in_date_range(
use_from_date, from_date, use_to_date, to_date, src_timezone, dst_timezone
)
These capabilities enable precise execution timing and market session optimization critical for larger market participants.

Deviation ChannelsIndicator Name: Deviation Channels (Dev Chan)
Why Use This Indicator?
Visualize Volatility Ranges:
The indicator plots Keltner Channels at four levels above and below an average line, letting you easily see how far price has deviated from a typical range. Each “dev” line highlights potential support or resistance during pullbacks or surges.
Color-Coded Clarity:
Each band shifts color intensity depending on whether the current price is trading above or below it, letting you spot breakouts and rejections at a glance. Meanwhile, the Fast SMA (default 10) also changes color – green if price is above, red if below – adding a quick momentum read.
Adjustable Source & Length:
Choose your input source (open, close, ohlc4, or hlc3) and set your Keltner length to suit different asset classes or timeframes. Whether you want a tighter, more reactive channel or a smoother, longer-term reading, the script adapts with minimal effort.
A Simple Trading Approach
Identify Trend with Fast SMA:
If the Fast SMA (default length 10) is green (price above it), treat that as a bullish environment. If it’s red (price below), favor bearish or neutral stances.
Wait for Price to Reach Lower/Upper Deviations:
In a bullish setup (Fast SMA green), watch for price to dip into one of the lower channels (e.g., -1 Dev or -2 Dev). Such pullbacks can become potential “buy the dip” zones if price stabilizes and resumes upward momentum.
Conversely, if the Fast SMA is red, watch for price to test the upper channels (1 Dev or 2 Dev). That might be a short opportunity or a place to close out any remaining longs before a deeper correction.
Manage Risk with Channel Levels:
Place stop-losses just beyond the next “dev” band to protect against volatility. For example, if you enter on a bounce at -1 Dev, consider placing a stop near -2 Dev or -3 Dev, depending on your risk tolerance.
Take Profits Gradually:
In an uptrend, you might scale out of positions as price moves toward higher lines (e.g., 1 Dev or 2 Dev). Conversely, if price fails to hold above the Fast SMA or repeatedly closes below a key band, it might be time to exit.
Disclaimer: No single indicator is foolproof. Always combine with sound risk management, observe multiple timeframes, and consider fundamental factors before making trading decisions. Experiment with the Keltner length and Fast SMA fastLength to find the sweet spot for your market and time horizon.
Keltner Channel StrategyOverview
The Keltner Channel Strategy is a powerful trend-following and mean-reversion system that leverages the Keltner Channels, EMA crossovers, and ATR-based stop-losses to optimize trade entries and exits. This strategy has proven to be highly effective, particularly when applied to Gold (XAUUSD) and other commodities with strong trend characteristics.
📈 How It Works
This strategy incorporates two trading approaches: 1️⃣ Keltner Channel Reversal Trades – Identifies overbought and oversold conditions when price touches the outer bands.

Breakout Support & Resistance SwiftEdgeBreakout Support & Resistance
The Breakout is a technical analysis tool designed to identify breakout opportunities in the market by detecting price movements through support and resistance levels. It plots potential entry points, stop-loss (SL), and take-profit (TP) levels based on user-defined percentages, helping traders visualize breakout setups on their charts.
How It Works
Support and Resistance Detection: The indicator uses pivot points to identify support and resistance levels over a user-defined lookback period.
Breakout Identification: A breakout is confirmed when the price crosses above a resistance level (bullish) or below a support level (bearish) and remains there for a specified number of bars.
Entry, SL, and TP Levels: Upon a confirmed breakout, the indicator sets an entry point at the closing price and calculates SL, TP1, and TP2 levels based on user-defined percentages.
Directional Filtering: To avoid conflicting signals, the indicator filters breakouts based on the current trade direction. A new entry in the opposite direction is only set if the price moves a user-defined percentage away from the previous entry or if the previous trade hits its SL, TP1, or TP2.
Visuals: The indicator plots support and resistance lines, breakout labels, and entry/SL/TP levels on the chart. Users can choose to display only the latest entry or up to 5 recent entries.
Features
Customizable Settings: Adjust the lookback period for pivot points, breakout confirmation bars, SL/TP percentages, and more.
Directional Change Control: A direction change is indicated when the price moves significantly in the opposite direction, helping to manage trend reversals.
Multiple Entry Display: Option to show up to 5 recent entries for tracking multiple breakouts.
Alerts: Receive alerts when a breakout is confirmed, including entry, SL, TP1, and TP2 levels.
Settings
Pivot Lookback Length: Number of bars to look back for identifying support and resistance levels (default: 5).
Breakout Confirmation Bars: Number of bars the price must stay above/below the level to confirm a breakout (default: 2).
Take Profit 1 (%): First take-profit level as a percentage above/below the entry (default: 2.0%).
Take Profit 2 (%): Second take-profit level as a percentage above/below the entry (default: 4.0%).
Stop Loss (%): Stop-loss level as a percentage below/above the entry (default: 1.0%).
Show Multiple Entries: Toggle to display up to 5 recent entries or only the latest (default: false).
Direction Change Threshold (%): Percentage the price must move away from the entry to allow a direction change (default: 2.0%).
How to Use
Add the Breakout Scanner to your chart.
Adjust the settings to match your trading style (e.g., tweak the pivot lookback or SL/TP percentages).
Watch for breakout labels ("Breakout") on the chart, indicating a confirmed breakout.
Use the plotted entry, SL, TP1, and TP2 levels to plan your trades.
Enable alerts to be notified of new breakouts in real-time.
Notes
This indicator is designed to assist with identifying breakout opportunities and does not guarantee specific results. Always combine it with other analysis and risk management techniques.
The direction change feature helps filter breakouts in the opposite direction, but significant price movements may still trigger a new entry in the opposite direction.
For best results, test the indicator on a demo account to understand its behavior in your preferred market and timeframe.
Forex Pips Tracker PinescriptlabsThis algorithm is exclusively designed for the Forex market 🌐 and serves as a tool to measure volatility, helping to determine on average how many pips positions move per hour. With this information, a trader can place take profit and stop loss orders with greater certainty, since they know the average pip movement range during each hour of the day.
What does it do and how does it work?
• Volatility measurement in pips 📊:
The algorithm calculates the size of the movement (or range) of each candle expressed in pips. To do this, it takes the difference between the highest and lowest price of each candle and converts it into pips.
👉
• Time zone adjustment ⏰:
It allows you to configure the time zone so that the data aligns with your desired schedule. This is especially useful for comparing movements at different times based on the trader's location.
• Analysis by time intervals 🕒:
The algorithm’s logic organizes the information for each hour of the day. It stores data for the current day, the previous day, weekly, and historically (200 candles). This allows you to see how volatility varies across different periods, providing a dynamic view of market behavior.
👉
• Directionality of movement 🔄:
In addition to averaging the pip range, the algorithm determines the predominant direction of each candle (bullish or bearish). This translates into visual indicators (like arrows) that help identify whether, on average, the movement during that hour tends to go up or down.
• Table visualization 📈:
Finally, the information is presented in an integrated table on the chart. Each row corresponds to an hour of the day and shows the average number of pips and the direction (bullish, bearish, or neutral) for each analyzed period. This table makes it easy to quickly and practically interpret the volatility data.
By combining these features, the algorithm becomes an essential tool for traders looking to better understand market dynamics and optimize their trading strategies! 💼✨
Español:
Este algoritmo está diseñado exclusivamente para el mercado Forex 🌐 y sirve como una herramienta para medir la volatilidad, ayudando a determinar en promedio cuántos pips se mueven las posiciones por hora. Con esta información, un trader puede colocar el take profit y el stop loss con mayor certeza, ya que conoce el rango promedio de movimiento en pips durante cada hora del día.
¿Qué hace y cómo funciona?
• Medición de volatilidad en pips 📊:
El algoritmo calcula el tamaño del movimiento (o rango) de cada vela expresado en pips. Para ello, toma la diferencia entre el precio máximo y el mínimo de cada vela y la convierte a pips.
👉
• Ajuste de zona horaria ⏰:
Permite configurar la zona horaria para que los datos se ajusten al horario deseado. Esto es especialmente útil para comparar movimientos durante distintas horas en función de la localización del trader.
• Análisis por intervalos de tiempo 🕒:
La lógica del algoritmo organiza la información por cada hora del día. Guarda datos para el día actual, el día anterior, a nivel semanal e histórico (200 velas). Esto permite ver cómo varía la volatilidad en diferentes periodos, proporcionando una visión dinámica del comportamiento del mercado.
👉
• Direccionalidad del movimiento 🔄:
Además de promediar el rango en pips, el algoritmo determina la dirección predominante de cada vela (alcista o bajista). Esto se traduce en indicadores visuales (como flechas) que permiten identificar si, en promedio, el movimiento en esa hora tiende a subir o bajar.
• Visualización en tabla 📈:
Finalmente, la información se presenta en una tabla integrada en el gráfico. Cada fila corresponde a una hora del día y muestra el promedio de pips y la dirección (alcista, bajista o neutral) para cada uno de los periodos analizados. Esta tabla facilita la interpretación rápida y práctica de los datos de volatilidad.
Al combinar estas funciones, el algoritmo se convierte en una herramienta esencial para traders que buscan entender mejor la dinámica del mercado y optimizar sus estrategias de trading! 💼✨
ETH/USDT EMA Crossover Strategy - OptimizedStrategy Name: EMA Crossover Strategy for ETH/USDT
Description:
This trading strategy is designed for the ETH/USDT pair and is based on exponential moving average (EMA) crossovers combined with momentum and volatility indicators. The strategy uses multiple filters to identify high-probability signals in both bullish and bearish trends, making it suitable for traders looking to trade in trending markets.
Strategy Components
EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages):
EMA 200: Used to identify the primary trend. If the price is above the EMA 200, it is considered a bullish trend; if below, a bearish trend.
EMA 50: Acts as an additional filter to confirm the trend.
EMA 20 and EMA 50 Short: These short-term EMAs generate entry signals through crossovers. A bullish crossover (EMA 20 crosses above EMA 50 Short) is a buy signal, while a bearish crossover (EMA 20 crosses below EMA 50 Short) is a sell signal.
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is used to avoid overbought or oversold conditions. Long trades are only taken when the RSI is above 30, and short trades when the RSI is below 70.
ATR (Average True Range):
The ATR is used as a volatility filter. Trades are only taken when there is sufficient volatility, helping to avoid false signals in quiet markets.
Volume:
A volume filter is used to confirm sufficient market participation in the price movement. Trades are only taken when volume is above average.
Strategy Logic
Long Trades:
The price must be above the EMA 200 (bullish trend).
The EMA 20 must cross above the EMA 50 Short.
The RSI must be above 30.
The ATR must indicate sufficient volatility.
Volume must be above average.
Short Trades:
The price must be below the EMA 200 (bearish trend).
The EMA 20 must cross below the EMA 50 Short.
The RSI must be below 70.
The ATR must indicate sufficient volatility.
Volume must be above average.
How to Use the Strategy
Setup:
Add the script to your ETH/USDT chart on TradingView.
Adjust the parameters according to your preferences (e.g., EMA periods, RSI, ATR, etc.).
Signals:
Buy and sell signals will be displayed directly on the chart.
Long trades are indicated with an upward arrow, and short trades with a downward arrow.
Risk Management:
Use stop-loss and take-profit orders in all trades.
Consider a risk-reward ratio of at least 1:2.
Backtesting:
Test the strategy on historical data to evaluate its performance before using it live.
Advantages of the Strategy
Trend-focused: The strategy is designed to trade in trending markets, increasing the probability of success.
Multiple filters: The use of RSI, ATR, and volume reduces false signals.
Adaptability: It can be adjusted for different timeframes, although it is recommended to test it on 5-minute and 15-minute charts for ETH/USDT.
Warnings
Sideways markets: The strategy may generate false signals in markets without a clear trend. It is recommended to avoid trading in such conditions.
Optimization: Make sure to optimize the parameters according to the market and timeframe you are using.
Risk management: Never trade without stop-loss and take-profit orders.

ICT Bread and Butter Sell-SetupICT Bread and Butter Sell-Setup – TradingView Strategy
Overview:
The ICT Bread and Butter Sell-Setup is an intraday trading strategy designed to capitalize on bearish market conditions. It follows institutional order flow and exploits liquidity patterns within key trading sessions—London, New York, and Asia—to identify high-probability short entries.
Key Components of the Strategy:
🔹 London Open Setup (2:00 AM – 8:20 AM NY Time)
The London session typically sets the initial directional move of the day.
A short-term high often forms before a downward push, establishing the daily high.
🔹 New York Open Kill Zone (8:20 AM – 10:00 AM NY Time)
The New York Judas Swing (a temporary rally above London’s high) creates an opportunity for short entries.
Traders fade this move, anticipating a sell-off targeting liquidity below previous lows.
🔹 London Close Buy Setup (10:30 AM – 1:00 PM NY Time)
If price reaches a higher timeframe discount array, a retracement higher is expected.
A bullish order block or failure swing signals a possible reversal.
The risk is set just below the day’s low, targeting a 20-30% retracement of the daily range.
🔹 Asia Open Sell Setup (7:00 PM – 2:00 AM NY Time)
If institutional order flow remains bearish, a short entry is taken around the 0-GMT Open.
Expect a 15-20 pip decline as the Asian range forms.
Strategy Rules:
📉 Short Entry Conditions:
✅ New York Judas Swing occurs (price moves above London’s high before reversing).
✅ Short entry is triggered when price closes below the open.
✅ Stop-loss is set 10 pips above the session high.
✅ Take-profit targets liquidity zones on higher timeframes.
📈 Long Entry (London Close Reversal):
✅ Price reaches a higher timeframe discount array between 10:30 AM – 1:00 PM NY Time.
✅ A bullish order block confirms the reversal.
✅ Stop-loss is set 10 pips below the day’s low.
✅ Take-profit targets 20-30% of the daily range retracement.
📉 Asia Open Sell Entry:
✅ Price trades slightly above the 0-GMT Open.
✅ Short entry is taken at resistance, targeting a quick 15-20 pip move.
Why Use This Strategy?
🚀 Institutional Order Flow Tracking – Aligns with smart money concepts.
📊 Precise Session Timing – Uses market structure across London, New York, and Asia.
🎯 High-Probability Entries – Focuses on liquidity grabs and engineered stop hunts.
📉 Optimized Risk Management – Defined stop-loss and take-profit levels.
This strategy is ideal for traders looking to trade with institutions, fade liquidity grabs, and capture high-probability short setups during the trading day. 📉🔥
Gold Scalping BOS & CHoCHThis strategy is designed for scalping gold (XAU/USD) on the 3-minute timeframe, utilizing Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) to identify high-probability trade setups. Unlike traditional SMA crossover strategies, this method focuses purely on price action and market structure shifts, allowing for early entries and better risk management.
Core Concepts:
Break of Structure (BOS) – Confirms a continuation of the trend when price breaks the last swing high (bullish) or last swing low (bearish).
Change of Character (CHoCH) – Detects possible trend reversals by identifying a shift in market momentum.
Dynamic Support & Resistance – Uses the last 10-bar highs and lows to determine adaptive stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels.
Risk-to-Reward Ratio (1:2 RR) – Ensures trades are executed with a favorable risk/reward ratio.
Entry Conditions:
Buy Entry:
BOS (Bullish) confirmed (price breaks the previous swing high).
CHoCH (Bullish) confirms trend shift.
Price crosses back above the last swing low (confirmation of support).
Sell Entry:
BOS (Bearish) confirmed (price breaks the previous swing low).
CHoCH (Bearish) confirms trend shift.
Price crosses back below the last swing high (confirmation of resistance).
Exit Conditions:
Stop Loss (SL): Set at the most recent dynamic support (for buys) or resistance (for sells).
Take Profit (TP): 2x the risk (1:2 risk-reward ratio).
Advantages of This Strategy:
✅ No lagging indicators – Uses price action for real-time entries.
✅ High probability setups – Focuses only on strong structural breaks.
✅ Adaptive SL/TP – Uses real market structure instead of fixed values.
✅ Optimized for Scalping – Best suited for quick in-and-out trades.
Best Time to Trade:
🔹 London & New York Sessions (High volatility for gold).
BTCUSD with adjustable sl,tpThis strategy is designed for swing traders who want to enter long positions on pullbacks after a short-term trend shift, while also allowing immediate short entries when conditions favor downside movement. It combines SMA crossovers, a fixed-percentage retracement entry, and adjustable risk management parameters for optimal trade execution.
Key Features:
✅ Trend Confirmation with SMA Crossover
The 10-period SMA crossing above the 25-period SMA signals a bullish trend shift.
The 10-period SMA crossing below the 25-period SMA signals a bearish trend shift.
Short trades are only taken if the price is below the 150 EMA, ensuring alignment with the broader trend.
📉 Long Pullback Entry Using Fixed Percentage Retracement
Instead of entering immediately on the SMA crossover, the strategy waits for a retracement before going long.
The pullback entry is defined as a percentage retracement from the recent high, allowing for an optimized entry price.
The retracement percentage is fully adjustable in the settings (default: 1%).
A dynamic support level is plotted on the chart to visualize the pullback entry zone.
📊 Short Entry Rules
If the SMA(10) crosses below the SMA(25) and price is below the 150 EMA, a short trade is immediately entered.
Risk Management & Exit Strategy:
🚀 Take Profit (TP) – Fully customizable profit target in points. (Default: 1000 points)
🛑 Stop Loss (SL) – Adjustable stop loss level in points. (Default: 250 points)
🔄 Break-Even (BE) – When price moves in favor by a set number of points, the stop loss is moved to break-even.
📌 Extra Exit Condition for Longs:
If the SMA(10) crosses below SMA(25) while the price is still below the EMA150, the strategy force-exits the long position to avoid reversals.
How to Use This Strategy:
Enable the strategy on your TradingView chart (recommended for stocks, forex, or indices).
Customize the settings – Adjust TP, SL, BE, and pullback percentage for your risk tolerance.
Observe the plotted retracement levels – When the price touches and bounces off the level, a long trade is triggered.
Let the strategy manage the trade – Break-even protection and take-profit logic will automatically execute.
Ideal Market Conditions:
✅ Trending Markets – The strategy works best when price follows strong trends.
✅ Stocks, Indices, or Forex – Can be applied across multiple asset classes.
✅ Medium-Term Holding Period – Suitable for swing trades lasting days to weeks.
PVSRA v5Overview of the PVSRA Strategy
This strategy is designed to detect and capitalize on volume-driven threshold breaches in price candles. It operates on the premise that when a high-volume candle breaks a critical price threshold, not all orders are filled within that candle’s range. This creates an imbalance—similar to a physical system being perturbed—causing the price to revert toward the level where the breach occurred to “absorb” the residual orders.
Key Features and Their Theoretical Underpinnings
Dynamic Volume Analysis and Threshold Detection
Volume Surges as Market Perturbations:
The script computes a moving average of volume over a short window and flags moments when the current volume significantly exceeds this average. These surges act as a perturbation—injecting “energy” into the market.
Adaptive Abnormal Volume Threshold:
By calculating a dynamic abnormal threshold using a daily volume average (via an 89-period VWMA) and standard deviation, the strategy identifies when the current volume is abnormally high. This mechanism mirrors the idea that when a system is disturbed (here, by a volume surge), it naturally seeks to return to equilibrium.
Candle Coloring and Visual Signal Identification
Differentiation of Candle Types:
The script distinguishes between bullish (green) and bearish (red) candles. It applies different colors based on the strength of the volume signal, providing a clear, visual representation of whether a candle is likely to trigger a price reversion.
Implication of Unfilled Orders:
A red (bearish) candle with high volume implies that sell pressure has pushed the price past a critical threshold—yet not all buy orders have been fulfilled. Conversely, a green (bullish) candle indicates that aggressive buying has left pending sell orders. In both cases, the market is expected to reverse toward the breach point to restore balance.
Trade Execution Logic: Normal and Reversal Trades
Normal Trades:
When a high-volume candle breaches a threshold and meets the directional conditions (e.g., a red candle paired with price above a daily upper band), the strategy enters a trade anticipating a reversion. The underlying idea is that the market will move back to the level where the threshold was crossed—clearing the residual orders in a manner analogous to a system following the path of least resistance.
Reversal Trades:
The strategy also monitors for clusters of consecutive signals within a short lookback period. When multiple signals accumulate, it interprets this as the market having overextended and, in a corrective move, reverses the typical trade direction. This inversion captures the market’s natural tendency to “correct” itself by moving in discrete, quantized steps—each step representing the absorption of a minimum quantum of order imbalance.
Risk and Trade Management
Stop Loss and Take Profit Buffers:
Both normal and reversal trades include predetermined buffers for stop loss and take profit levels. This systematic risk management approach is designed to capture the anticipated reversion while minimizing potential losses, aligning with the idea that market corrections follow the most energy-efficient path back to equilibrium.
Symbol Flexibility:
An option to override the chart’s symbol allows the strategy to be applied consistently across different markets, ensuring that the volume and price dynamics are analyzed uniformly.
Conceptual Bridge: From Market Dynamics to Trade Execution
At its core, the strategy treats market price movements much like a physical system that seeks to minimize “transactional energy” or inefficiency. When a price candle breaches a key threshold on high volume, it mimics an injection of energy into the system. The subsequent price reversion is the market’s natural response—moving in the most efficient path back to balance. This perspective is akin to the principle of least action, where the system evolves along the trajectory that minimizes cumulative imbalance, and it acknowledges that these corrections occur in discrete steps reflective of quantized order execution.
This unified framework allows the PVSRA strategy to not only identify when significant volume-based threshold breaches occur but also to systematically execute trades that benefit from the expected corrective moves.
