Bollinger Awesome Alert R1 by JustUncleLThis indicator is an implementation of the Bollinger Band and Awesome Oscillator Scalping system.
This technique is for those who want the most simple method that is very effective. It is BEST traded during the busiest trading hours, 3am to 12am EST NY time. This method doesn't work in sideways markets, only in volatile trending markets.
Time Frames: 1, 5, 10, 15 ,30 min.
Currency pairs: majors.
Other Chart indicators:
Add Awesome Oscillator.
Optionally Add Squeeze Indicator.
Here's the strategy:
Going LONG:
Enter a long position when the black 3 EMA has crossed up through the Bollinger red middle band MA. At the same time, the Awesome should be approaching or crossing it's zeroline, going up. This is indicated by "Buy" alert.
Going SHORT:
Enter a short position when the black 3 EMA has crossed down through the Bollinger red middle band MA. At the same time, the Awesome should be approaching or crossing it's zero line, going down. This is indicated by the "Sell" Alert.
Take profit:
10-20 pips depending on pair or When Awesome Oscillator turns a different colour.
HINTS: Best trades tend to occur when price reversing bounce off outer band and outside the Optional Bollinger Squeeze indication.
Simple Buy/Sell IndicatorThe original script was posted on ProRealCode by user Doctrading.
This little and simple code allows you to draw an indicator, which show you when buy or sell conditions are met.
For "buy" conditions, I did just set :
close > MM200
close > Parabolic SAR
MACD > 0
RSI7 > 50
For "sell" conditions : the opposite.
Of course, you can set what you want, in order to test your strategies.
Of course, to be profitable, you must also set your trading rules (entry, stop loss, trailing stop, take profit, etc.)
It's only an indicator, which doesn't show entry or exit rules.
The Always Winning Holy Grail Strategy - Not (by ChartArt)How to win all the time if 1+1 = 2
The most upvoted strategies on Tradingview are those which seemingly work 100%, but they actually don't at all because they are repainting and would not work in live trading reality. They are using the multi-time-frame strategy testing bug and thereby trade during the backtest on close prices before the bar has closed in reality.
Top list of these cheating repainting strategies:
1569 upvotes ANN Strategy
877 upvotes Vdub FX SniperVX3 Strategy
481 upvotes Get Trend Strategy
I guess there are much more strategies among the top upvoted strategies on Tradingview which cheat with a multi-time-frame close price, but three examples are enough. The ANN Strategy uses the daily close price as multi-time-frame and cheats with that. The Vdub FX SniperVX3 Strategy uses the half-day (720 minute) close price to cheat and the Get Trend Strategy uses the 160 minute bar close for repaint cheating (at least here the author of this strategy explains that his strategy is only demo and would not work, which might be the reason why it has 1000 less upvotes than the ANN Strategy. I already wrote months ago a comment underneat these strategies to explain this issue but it hasn't stopped these strategies from getting more and more upvotes and staying in the top list.
I thought this way of cheating is lame, so I invented a new way to cheat my way to seemingly reach 100% profitable trades all the time by going long if 1+1 is equal to 2. Welcome to super wide stop losses. Simply use a extreme unrealistic large stop loss and take profit after a realistic amount of pips and according to Tradingview's current backtest module you win 100% all the time. Yay! :)
My recommendation for the Tradingview team is to add a function to let the user define a stop out and margin call level and maybe set a realistic setting as default, like 100%.
Please don't trade with this strategy!
How to automate this strategy for free using a chrome extension.Hey everyone,
Recently we developed a chrome extension for automating TradingView strategies using the alerts they provide. Initially we were charging a monthly fee for the extension, but we have now decided to make it FREE for everyone. So to display the power of automating strategies via TradingView, we figured we would also provide a profitable strategy along with the custom alert script and commands for the alerts so you can easily cut and paste to begin trading for profit while you sleep.
Step 1:
You are going to need to download the Chrome Extension called AutoView. You can get the extension for free by following this link: bit.ly ( I had to shorten the link as it contains Google and TV automatically converts it to a symbol)
Step 2: Go to your chrome extension page, and under the new extension you'll see a "settings" button. In the setting you will have to connect and give permission to the exchange 1broker allowing the extension to place your orders automatically when triggered by an alert.
Step 3: Setup the strategy and custom script for the alerts in TradingView. The attached script is the strategy, you can play with the settings yourself to try and get better numbers/performance if you please.
This following script is for the custom alerts:
//@version=2
study("4All-Alert", shorttitle="Alerts")
src = close
len = input(4, minval=1, title="Length")
up = rma(max(change(src), 0), len)
down = rma(-min(change(src), 0), len)
rsi = down == 0 ? 100 : up == 0 ? 0 : 100 - (100 / (1 + up / down))
rsin = input(5)
sn = 100 - rsin
ln = 0 + rsin
short = crossover(rsi, sn) ? 1 : 0
long = crossunder(rsi, ln) ? 1 : 0
plot(long, "Long", color=green)
plot(short, "Short", color=red)
Now that you have the extension installed, the custom strategy and alert scripts in place, you simply need to create the alerts.
To get the alerts to communicate with the extension properly, there is a specific syntax that you will need to put in the message of the alert. You can find more details about the syntax here : gist.github.com
For this specific strategy, I use the Alerts script, long/short greater than 0.9 on close.
In the message for a long place this as your message:
Long
c=order b=short
c=position b=short l=200 t=market
b=long q=0.01 l=200 t=market tp=13 sl=25
and for the short...
Short
c=order b=long
c=position b=long l=200 t=market
b=short q=0.01 l=200 t=market tp=13 sl=25
If you'll notice in my above messages, compared to the strategy my tp and sl (take profit and stop loss) vary by a few pips. This is to cover the market opens and spread on 1broker. You can change the tp and sl in the strategy to the above and see that the overall profit will not vary much at all.
I hope this all makes sense and it is enough to not only make some people money, but to show the power of coming up with your own strategy and automating it using TradingView alerts and the free Chrome Extension AutoView.
ps. I highly recommend upgrading your TradingView account so you have access to back testing and multiple alerts.
There is really no reason you won't cover the cost and then some on a monthly basis using the tools provided.
Best of luck and happy trading.
Note: The extension currently allows for automation on 2 exchanges; 1broker and Okcoin. If you do not have accounts there, we'd appreciate you signing up using our referral links.

Madrid Trend TradingMadrid Trend Trading is an indicator that shows Momentum direction and strength based on a given trend (pair of MA's). It is useful to detect the direction of the trend, Momentum divergences with the trend and possible trend reversals.
Parameters
1. Fast MA Length
2. Slow MA Length
3. Signal Length
Trading with MTT
1. MTT > 0 and increasing (Lime) : Long position
2. MTT > 0 and decreasing (Green) : entry/exit long position, take profits or plan an entry
3. MTT < 0 and decreasing (Red) : Short position
4. MTT <0 and increasing (Maroon) : entry/exit short position, take profits or plan entry
This shows the market waves, it's a good indicator for swing trading since it shows the change of direction of the trend, signals profit areas and entry/exit regions. Change in the direction of the trend can be spotted by the cross over the zero line or by trend divergences, H-H in the trend and L-H in the MTT indicator means a downtrend is close. L-L in the trend and H-L in the indicator means an uptrend is forming.
There is a bar in the zero line that shows the momentum direction, simple, green it's increasing, red, it's decreasing.
This indicator is meant to be a companion of the MTS indicator. When combined MTS shows the direction and strength of the trend, meanwhile MTT shows if the trend is weakening, gaining strength, confirms continuation or warns a reversal.
What I look from my indicators is to create a tool that filters out as much noise as possible without losing much sensitivity, they have to be easy to tune and simple to analyze, so I normally use contrasting colors, using cold colors for long positions and warm colors for short positions. I try to use the least possible number of parameters and the defaults have been set after several months of testing in Beta mode against hundreds of charts before publishing them.
I hope this effort can help you to have a simpler point of view of the market.

BTC H4/D1 Bollinger Breakout Momentum Robot [AlgoChadLin]The Bitcoin H4 Bollinger Breakout Momentum is a specialized trading system meticulously crafted to capture the significant, high-volatility moves characteristic of the Bitcoin market.
This strategy prioritizes a favorable risk-reward ratio, focusing on quality over quantity. Its core philosophy is to identify and ride major trend breakouts using a Bollinger Band channel combined with a weighted price channel. It aims to catch large-scale movements that can generate substantial returns, potentially building wealth with just a few successful trades.
Strategy Logic
Breakout Entry: The strategy's primary entry signals are triggered by a confirmed breakout from a consolidating market. It uses a dual-moving average channel (Bollinger Bands) to identify when price is moving from a sideways range into a clear trend. The entry order is placed with a stop mechanism, ensuring a trade is only executed when the momentum is strong and confirmed.
Weighted Price Channel: To refine entry points, the strategy uses a unique weighted price channel. This channel is derived from a custom calculation of high, low, and close prices, providing a more sensitive and dynamic measure for placing pending orders.
Dual-Layered Exits: The strategy manages trades with a dual-layered exit approach. It uses a fixed take-profit to secure large gains, reflecting the strategy's focus on big-picture moves. Additionally, a monthly close is used as a hard stop-loss, providing a robust higher-timeframe protection against major reversals.
Move-to-Breakeven: To protect capital, the strategy includes a move-to-breakeven feature. Once a position reaches a certain level of profit, the stop-loss is automatically adjusted to a breakeven point plus a small buffer, eliminating the risk of a losing trade.
Parameters
Bollinger Bands Period: Defines the lookback period for the Bollinger Bands, which helps to determine the breakout points for entry.
HMA Period: Sets the period for the Hull Moving Average, which serves as a dynamic exit signal.
Price Channel Period: Defines the lookback period for the weighted price channel, which influences the entry price.
Entry Price Multiplier: Adjusts the distance of the pending order from the weighted price channel.
Profit Target Percentage: A percentage value that sets the take-profit level based on the entry price.
Move-to-Breakeven Trigger: A value in ticks that determines when to move the stop-loss to breakeven.
Breakeven Ad
ditional Pips: A value in ticks that adds a buffer to the breakeven stop-loss.
Setup
Timeframe: H4/D1, the higher the better.
Asset: This strategy is specifically designed for Bitcoin (BTC) and its characteristic large price swings. Its focus on big-picture moves and high volatility makes it a suitable tool for capturing Bitcoin's explosive potential.
Pi Cycle OscillatorThis oscillator combines the Pi Cycle Top indicator with a percentile-based approach to create a more precise and easy to read market timing tool.
Instead of waiting for moving average crossovers, it shows you exactly how close you are to a potential market top.
Orange background means you should start preparing for a potential top and look into taking profits.
Red background means that the crossover has happened on the original Pi Cycle Indicator and that you should have already sold everything. (Crossover of the gray line aka 100)

Script_Algo - Fibo Correction Strategy🔹 Core Concept
The strategy is built on combining Fibonacci retracement levels, candlestick pattern confirmation, and trend filtering for trade selection. It performs well on the 1-hour timeframe across many cryptocurrency pairs. Particularly on LINKUSDT over the past year and a half, despite the not very optimal 1:1 risk/reward ratio.
The logic is simple: after a strong impulse move, the price often retraces to key Fibonacci levels (specifically, the 61.8% level). If a confirming candlestick (pattern) appears at this moment, the strategy looks for an entry in the direction of the main trend.
🔹 Indicators Used in the Strategy
ATR (Average True Range) — Used to calculate the stop-loss and take-profit levels.
EMA (9 and 21) — Additional moving averages for assessing the direction of movement (not directly used in entry conditions, but the logic can be expanded to include them).
SMA (Trend Filter, 20 by default) — The trend direction filter. Trades are only opened in its direction.
Fibonacci Levels — The 61.8% retracement level is calculated based on the high and low of the previous candle.
🔹 Entry Conditions
🟢 Long (Buy):
Previous Candle:
Must be green (close higher than open).
Must have a body not smaller than a specified minimum.
The upper wick must not exceed 30% of the body size.
→ This filters out "weak" or "indecisive" candles.
Current Candle:
Price touches or breaches the Fibonacci 61.8% retracement level from the previous range.
Closes above this level.
Closes above the Trend Filter (SMA) line.
A position is opened only if there are no other open trades at the moment.
🔴 Short (Sell):
Previous Candle:
Must be red (close lower than open).
Must have a body not smaller than a specified minimum.
The lower wick must not exceed 30% of the body size.
Current Candle:
Price touches or breaches the Fibonacci 61.8% retracement level from the previous range.
Closes below this level.
Closes below the Trend Filter (SMA) line.
A trade is opened only if there are no other open positions.
🔹 Risk Management
Stop-Loss = ATR × multiplier (default is 5).
Take-Profit = ATR × the same multiplier.
Thus, the default risk/reward ratio is 1:1, but it can be easily adjusted by changing the coefficient. Although, strangely enough, this ratio has shown the best results on some assets on the 1-hour timeframe.
🔹 Chart Visualization
Fibonacci level for Long — Green line with circles.
Fibonacci level for Short — Red line with circles.
Trend Filter line (SMA) — Blue.
🔹 Strengths of the Strategy
✅ Utilizes a proven market pattern — retracement to the 61.8% level.
✅ Further filters entries using trend and candlestick patterns.
✅ Simple, transparent logic that is easy to expand (e.g., adding other Fib levels, an EMA filter, etc.).
🔹 Limitations
⚠️ Performs better in trending markets; can generate false signals during ranging (sideways) conditions.
⚠️ The fixed 1:1 risk/reward ratio is not always optimal and could be refined.
⚠️ Performance depends on the selected timeframe and ATR parameters.
📌 Summary:
The strategy seeks corrective entries in the direction of the trend, confirmed by candlestick patterns. It is versatile and can be applied to forex pairs, cryptocurrencies, and stocks.
⚠️ Not financial advice. Pay close attention to risk management to avoid blowing your account. The strategy is not repainting — I have personally verified it through real testing — but it may not necessarily replicate the same results in the future, as the market is constantly changing. Test it, profit, and good luck to everyone!

Smart Money SignalsSmart Money Signals – Market Flow & Structure Visualizer
Overview
Smart Money Signals is a precision trading tool designed for traders who want to see market structure and momentum flow in real time. By detecting pivots, momentum imbalances, and dynamic support/resistance levels, the indicator transforms raw price action into a clear visual narrative of where capital is entering and exiting the market.
Instead of lagging averages or cluttered signals, Smart Money Signals highlights the moments that matter most—where bullish and bearish flows are confirmed, where support or resistance breaks, and where momentum zones show the true battleground between buyers and sellers. Its adaptive design makes it equally effective for scalpers seeking sharp entries, swing traders tracking reversals, and longer-term traders looking for confirmation of bias.
How It Works
The engine behind Smart Money Signals relies on swing detection and a configurable sensitivity filter. By monitoring directional momentum across recent bars, the system identifies bullish pivots (where downside exhaustion flips into strength) and bearish pivots (where upward thrust collapses into weakness).
When price confirms a pivot, the indicator draws flow lines to mark the breakout and labels them as either continuation or reversal events, depending on existing market bias. Momentum zones are automatically plotted, highlighting the critical areas where buyers defended price or sellers pressed it lower.
Dynamic support and resistance levels extend forward in time, updating live as price develops. These zones change color when broken, visually signaling whether structure has held or failed. Gradient background shading further emphasizes moments of extreme momentum, such as overbought or oversold surges, so that traders instantly see when market pressure intensifies.
Signals and Market Flows
Smart Money Signals provides visual cues that are both intuitive and actionable:
📈 Bullish Flow Signals appear when price breaks above a confirmed pivot, signaling continuation or reversal into strength.
📉 Bearish Flow Signals appear when price breaks below a confirmed pivot, indicating continuation or reversal into weakness.
Momentum Zones highlight the defended areas between pivots, giving traders a visual map of where structure is strongest.
Dynamic Support & Resistance lines extend across the chart, shifting from defense to failure when broken, ensuring that the most relevant levels are always visible.
Break Signals mark the exact bar where key levels give way, confirming structural violations in real time.
By filtering out noise and focusing on meaningful flow events, the system helps traders avoid overreaction and focus only on high-probability structural shifts.
Strategy Integration
Smart Money Signals is versatile across trading styles:
Trend Continuation : Enter in the direction of flow signals, using dynamic zones as both confirmation and stop-loss placement.
Reversal Trading : Watch for pivots tagged as reversal points, where market bias flips and new structure is created.
Momentum Zone Entries : Use the automatically drawn zones to identify low-risk entries on pullbacks or retests.
Bias Alignment : The integrated dashboard reveals the current market bias—bullish, bearish, or neutral—helping traders stay aligned with the dominant flow.
Stop-losses can be positioned beyond the dynamic zone on the opposite side, while take-profits may be guided by the width of zones or momentum-driven extensions. On higher timeframes, the indicator provides context for macro structure, while lower timeframes allow for tactical entry refinement.
Advanced Techniques
Traders seeking deeper precision can combine Smart Money Signals with volume or order flow tools to validate pivots and zone defenses. Monitoring the sequence of bullish and bearish flows helps identify trend maturity, while analyzing the success rate of pivots in the analytics panel builds a data-driven approach to confidence in signals.
Adjusting swing period and sensitivity allows the indicator to adapt to different market conditions, from volatile crypto pairs to steady forex majors. The flexible visual themes—Cyber, Ocean, Sunset, Matrix—ensure readability across setups, while gradient shading keeps the chart intuitive even under fast-moving conditions.
Why Use Smart Money Signals
Markets are driven by liquidity, momentum, and structure. Smart Money Signals uncovers these forces by translating price action into a clear visual map of flow. It shows:
Where structure was built.
Where it was defended.
Where it was broken.
And where momentum is likely to carry next.
By combining flow detection, dynamic zones, and a live analytics dashboard, the indicator provides traders with a complete framework for reading price action in real time.
Whether you trade crypto, forex, or indices, Smart Money Signals adapts seamlessly to any asset class, giving you clarity, precision, and confidence to execute without second-guessing.
Ruptura + EMAs + VWAP + Vela Impulsiva Indicator: Breakout + EMAs + VWAP + Impulsive Candle + TP/SL
This indicator is designed to identify breakout trading opportunities by combining price action, moving averages, volume-weighted price, and impulsive candles, with clearly defined Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels.
⏱️ Timeframe Logic:
The 15-minute chart is used to define the price range.
Entries are made on the 2-minute chart when breakout conditions align with momentum confirmation.
📌 Key Components:
Range Definition:
Calculates a price range based on a customizable number of candles (rangeBars), typically from the 15-minute timeframe.
Displays a shaded box highlighting this range.
Trend Filters:
Uses a fast EMA (9) and a slow EMA (21) to determine short-term and medium-term trends.
Includes VWAP as a dynamic support/resistance and directional filter.
Only allows trades when both EMAs and price confirm alignment above (for long) or below (for short) the VWAP.
Impulsive Candle Detection:
Confirms breakouts using large-bodied candles that engulf the previous candle's range.
The candle must exceed a certain multiple of the average range (minRangeMult) to qualify.
Breakout Entry Conditions:
Long Setup: Price breaks above the range high, with EMAs and VWAP confirming bullish alignment, and confirmed by an impulsive candle.
Short Setup: Price breaks below the range low, with EMAs and VWAP aligned bearishly, confirmed by an impulsive candle.
Trade Management:
Automatically plots Take Profit and Stop Loss levels based on the size of the entry candle and a customizable TP multiplier.
Visual dashed lines indicate TP (green) and SL (red) zones.
Session Filter:
Entry signals are limited to a specific time window (e.g., 9:00 to 10:00 AM New York time), typically during the NY session open.
Visual Aids:
Background color highlights potential entry zones (green for long, red for short).
Icons mark confirmed impulsive candles and entry signals.
Range box is updated periodically to reflect the active breakout zone.

HA • EMA9/21 • Daily VWAP – Fixed Signals (v6)HA • EMA9/21 • Daily VWAP – Fixed Signals (v6)
Heikin Ashi EMA 9/21 + Daily VWAP Setup Indicator
Description
This indicator combines three proven concepts into one clean and practical trading tool:
Heikin Ashi Candles → smooth out price action and highlight trends more clearly.
EMA 9/21 → a classic momentum and trend filter.
Daily VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) → widely used by professionals as dynamic support and resistance.
How it works
Long Signal:
Triggered when Heikin Ashi turns bullish, EMA 9 is above EMA 21, and price crosses above the Daily VWAP.
Short Signal:
Triggered when Heikin Ashi turns bearish, EMA 9 is below EMA 21, and price crosses below the Daily VWAP.
For every signal the indicator automatically draws Entry, Stop-Loss, and Take-Profit levels directly on the chart:
Entry = price at the signal bar
Stop-Loss (SL) = recent swing low/high or ATR-based (configurable)
Take-Profit (TP) = calculated using the chosen Risk/Reward ratio
Features
✅ Instant signals (no repainting)
✅ Fixed horizontal lines for Entry, SL, and TP extending to the right side of the chart
✅ Customizable Risk/Reward ratio (default: 1.5)
✅ Choice between Swing-based or ATR-based stop-loss
✅ Alerts for both Long and Short signals
✅ Clean chart visualization without clutter
Use case
This tool is designed for traders who want clear, rule-based setups.
It provides easy-to-spot signals that can be used for manual trading, journaling, and backtesting.
⚠️ Note: This is not an automated trading strategy. Always confirm signals with your own analysis and apply proper risk management.
Trader Marks Trailing SL + TP (Long & Short, mirrored)📌 Trader Marks Trailing SL + TP (Long & Short, mirrored)
This script implements an advanced trailing stop and take-profit system for both long and short trades.
It combines fixed entry/TP levels with a progressive looping mechanism that dynamically adjusts the trailing stop.
🔑 Key Features
Long & Short mirrored
The script works symmetrically for both long and short setups.
Fixed or percentage-based Take-Profit
You can either set a fixed TP price or have it calculated automatically as entry ± percentage distance.
Progressive Trailing Stop with Looping Mechanism
The stop-loss moves progressively towards the take-profit depending on price development.
For longs, the SL only moves upward (never lower).
For shorts, the SL only moves downward (never higher).
The looping exponent (tightPower) controls how strongly the gap between price and SL “tightens” over time:
Smaller values (e.g. 1.0) → gentle tightening, SL follows loosely.
Larger values (e.g. 3.0) → aggressive tightening, SL closes in on price faster.
Dynamic Minimum Distance
Default: 0.9 % distance from price.
As soon as the stop-loss touches the current or previous candle → automatic switch to 1.5 %.

Simple Symmetrical Triangle Strategy (6 points)Overview
This strategy identifies triangle patterns formed by a series of key high and low price points. A trade is triggered when the price breaks out from the pattern's final confirmation points: a buy signal occurs on a close above the last high point, and a sell signal on a close below the last low point. To ensure relevance, any pattern that doesn't break out within 10 bars is automatically discarded.
This helps filter out patterns that lose momentum and focuses only on the most imminent breakouts.
How It Works
1. Pattern Detection: The script continuously scans for a sequence of three declining highs (points H1, H2, H3) and three rising lows (points L1, L2, L3) to form a triangle.
2. Entry Logic: The logic is straightforward and based on breaking the last confirmed pivot:
* Long Entry: A buy order is executed if the price closes above the level of the last high (H3).
* Short Entry: A sell order is executed if the price closes below the level of the last low (L3).
3. Pattern Expiration: A triangle only remains "active" for 10 bars after its formation. If a breakout doesn't occur within this window, the pattern is removed from analysis, avoiding trades on prolonged, unresolved consolidations.
Key Features
* Automatic Detection: Identifies and draws triangles for you.
* Simple Breakout Logic: Easy to understand, trades by following the price action.
* Time Filter: Its main advantage is discarding patterns that do not resolve quickly.
* Customizable: You can adjust the sensitivity of the pivot detection in the settings.
Important Disclaimer
This strategy is designed as an entry system and DOES NOT INCLUDE A STOP LOSS OR TAKE PROFIT.

Symmetrical Triangle Strategy (Real and Trap confirmation)Overview
This is an advanced strategy that not only detects symmetrical triangle patterns but also attempts to differentiate between a genuine breakout and a false breakout (a trap) to trade accordingly.
Instead of blindly following every breakout, it analyzes the "quality" of the move using Volume and RSI filters. If the breakout appears weak, it prepares to trade in the opposite direction, capitalizing on the pattern's failure.
How It Works
The strategy employs a dual logic that activates after the price breaks the last pivot (H3 or L3):
1. Scenario A: The Real Breakout
* If the price breaks the triangle AND the breakout is confirmed by a surge in volume and/or a favorable RSI, the strategy considers the move genuine and enters in the direction of the breakout.
2. Scenario B: The False Breakout (Trap)
* If the price breaks the triangle BUT the indicators fail to confirm it (e.g., low volume), the strategy interprets it as a potential trap.
* It waits for the price to return inside the pattern.
* Once the price has re-entered, it opens a trade AGAINST the initial breakout, betting that the first move was a fake-out.
Key Features
* Hybrid Logic: It's not just a simple breakout strategy; it adapts to market conditions.
* Confirmation Filters: Uses Volume and RSI to validate the strength of a breakout (fully configurable).
* Capitalizes on Traps: Its greatest strength is the ability to identify and trade false breakouts, a common market scenario.
* Optional Confirmation: For trap trades, an extra confirmation via an EMA crossover can be enabled for added safety.
* Opportunity Timeout: Potential traps have a time limit to be confirmed, preventing the strategy from getting stuck in an undecided scenario.

Seasonality Monte Carlo Forecaster [BackQuant]Seasonality Monte Carlo Forecaster
Plain-English overview
This tool projects a cone of plausible future prices by combining two ideas that traders already use intuitively: seasonality and uncertainty. It watches how your market typically behaves around this calendar date, turns that seasonal tendency into a small daily “drift,” then runs many randomized price paths forward to estimate where price could land tomorrow, next week, or a month from now. The result is a probability cone with a clear expected path, plus optional overlays that show how past years tended to move from this point on the calendar. It is a planning tool, not a crystal ball: the goal is to quantify ranges and odds so you can size, place stops, set targets, and time entries with more realism.
What Monte Carlo is and why quants rely on it
• Definition . Monte Carlo simulation is a way to answer “what might happen next?” when there is randomness in the system. Instead of producing a single forecast, it generates thousands of alternate futures by repeatedly sampling random shocks and adding them to a model of how prices evolve.
• Why it is used . Markets are noisy. A single point forecast hides risk. Monte Carlo gives a distribution of outcomes so you can reason in probabilities: the median path, the 68% band, the 95% band, tail risks, and the chance of hitting a specific level within a horizon.
• Core strengths in quant finance .
– Path-dependent questions : “What is the probability we touch a stop before a target?” “What is the expected drawdown on the way to my objective?”
– Pricing and risk : Useful for path-dependent options, Value-at-Risk (VaR), expected shortfall (CVaR), stress paths, and scenario analysis when closed-form formulas are unrealistic.
– Planning under uncertainty : Portfolio construction and rebalancing rules can be tested against a cloud of plausible futures rather than a single guess.
• Why it fits trading workflows . It turns gut feel like “seasonality is supportive here” into quantitative ranges: “median path suggests +X% with a 68% band of ±Y%; stop at Z has only ~16% odds of being tagged in N days.”
How this indicator builds its probability cone
1) Seasonal pattern discovery
The script builds two day-of-year maps as new data arrives:
• A return map where each calendar day stores an exponentially smoothed average of that day’s log return (yesterday→today). The smoothing (90% old, 10% new) behaves like an EWMA, letting older seasons matter while adapting to new information.
• A volatility map that tracks the typical absolute return for the same calendar day.
It calculates the day-of-year carefully (with leap-year adjustment) and indexes into a 365-slot seasonal array so “March 18” is compared with past March 18ths. This becomes the seasonal bias that gently nudges simulations up or down on each forecast day.
2) Choice of randomness engine
You can pick how the future shocks are generated:
• Daily mode uses a Gaussian draw with the seasonal bias as the mean and a volatility that comes from realized returns, scaled down to avoid over-fitting. It relies on the Box–Muller transform internally to turn two uniform random numbers into one normal shock.
• Weekly mode uses bootstrap sampling from the seasonal return history (resampling actual historical daily drifts and then blending in a fraction of the seasonal bias). Bootstrapping is robust when the empirical distribution has asymmetry or fatter tails than a normal distribution.
Both modes seed their random draws deterministically per path and day, which makes plots reproducible bar-to-bar and avoids flickering bands.
3) Volatility scaling to current conditions
Markets do not always live in average volatility. The engine computes a simple volatility factor from ATR(20)/price and scales the simulated shocks up or down within sensible bounds (clamped between 0.5× and 2.0×). When the current regime is quiet, the cone narrows; when ranges expand, the cone widens. This prevents the classic mistake of projecting calm markets into a storm or vice versa.
4) Many futures, summarized by percentiles
The model generates a matrix of price paths (capped at 100 runs for performance inside TradingView), each path stepping forward for your selected horizon. For each forecast day it sorts the simulated prices and pulls key percentiles:
• 5th and 95th → approximate 95% band (outer cone).
• 16th and 84th → approximate 68% band (inner cone).
• 50th → the median or “expected path.”
These are drawn as polylines so you can immediately see central tendency and dispersion.
5) A historical overlay (optional)
Turn on the overlay to sketch a dotted path of what a purely seasonal projection would look like for the next ~30 days using only the return map, no randomness. This is not a forecast; it is a visual reminder of the seasonal drift you are biasing toward.
Inputs you control and how to think about them
Monte Carlo Simulation
• Price Series for Calculation . The source series, typically close.
• Enable Probability Forecasts . Master switch for simulation and drawing.
• Simulation Iterations . Requested number of paths to run. Internally capped at 100 to protect performance, which is generally enough to estimate the percentiles for a trading chart. If you need ultra-smooth bands, shorten the horizon.
• Forecast Days Ahead . The length of the cone. Longer horizons dilute seasonal signal and widen uncertainty.
• Probability Bands . Draw all bands, just 95%, just 68%, or a custom level (display logic remains 68/95 internally; the custom number is for labeling and color choice).
• Pattern Resolution . Daily leans on day-of-year effects like “turn-of-month” or holiday patterns. Weekly biases toward day-of-week tendencies and bootstraps from history.
• Volatility Scaling . On by default so the cone respects today’s range context.
Plotting & UI
• Probability Cone . Plots the outer and inner percentile envelopes.
• Expected Path . Plots the median line through the cone.
• Historical Overlay . Dotted seasonal-only projection for context.
• Band Transparency/Colors . Customize primary (outer) and secondary (inner) band colors and the mean path color. Use higher transparency for cleaner charts.
What appears on your chart
• A cone starting at the most recent bar, fanning outward. The outer lines are the ~95% band; the inner lines are the ~68% band.
• A median path (default blue) running through the center of the cone.
• An info panel on the final historical bar that summarizes simulation count, forecast days, number of seasonal patterns learned, the current day-of-year, expected percentage return to the median, and the approximate 95% half-range in percent.
• Optional historical seasonal path drawn as dotted segments for the next 30 bars.
How to use it in trading
1) Position sizing and stop logic
The cone translates “volatility plus seasonality” into distances.
• Put stops outside the inner band if you want only ~16% odds of a stop-out due to noise before your thesis can play.
• Size positions so that a test of the inner band is survivable and a test of the outer band is rare but acceptable.
• If your target sits inside the 68% band at your horizon, the payoff is likely modest; outside the 68% but inside the 95% can justify “one-good-push” trades; beyond the 95% band is a low-probability flyer—consider scaling plans or optionality.
2) Entry timing with seasonal bias
When the median path slopes up from this calendar date and the cone is relatively narrow, a pullback toward the lower inner band can be a high-quality entry with a tight invalidation. If the median slopes down, fade rallies toward the upper band or step aside if it clashes with your system.
3) Target selection
Project your time horizon to N bars ahead, then pick targets around the median or the opposite inner band depending on your style. You can also anchor dynamic take-profits to the moving median as new bars arrive.
4) Scenario planning & “what-ifs”
Before events, glance at the cone: if the 95% band already spans a huge range, trade smaller, expect whips, and avoid placing stops at obvious band edges. If the cone is unusually tight, consider breakout tactics and be ready to add if volatility expands beyond the inner band with follow-through.
5) Options and vol tactics
• When the cone is tight : Prefer long gamma structures (debit spreads) only if you expect a regime shift; otherwise premium selling may dominate.
• When the cone is wide : Debit structures benefit from range; credit spreads need wider wings or smaller size. Align with your separate IV metrics.
Reading the probability cone like a pro
• Cone slope = seasonal drift. Upward slope means the calendar has historically favored positive drift from this date, downward slope the opposite.
• Cone width = regime volatility. A widening fan tells you that uncertainty grows fast; a narrow cone says the market typically stays contained.
• Mean vs. price gap . If spot trades well above the median path and the upper band, mean-reversion risk is high. If spot presses the lower inner band in an up-sloping cone, you are in the “buy fear” zone.
• Touches and pierces . Touching the inner band is common noise; piercing it with momentum signals potential regime change; the outer band should be rare and often brings snap-backs unless there is a structural catalyst.
Methodological notes (what the code actually does)
• Log returns are used for additivity and better statistical behavior: sim_ret is applied via exp(sim_ret) to evolve price.
• Seasonal arrays are updated online with EWMA (90/10) so the model keeps learning as each bar arrives.
• Leap years are handled; indexing still normalizes into a 365-slot map so the seasonal pattern remains stable.
• Gaussian engine (Daily mode) centers shocks on the seasonal bias with a conservative standard deviation.
• Bootstrap engine (Weekly mode) resamples from observed seasonal returns and adds a fraction of the bias, which captures skew and fat tails better.
• Volatility adjustment multiplies each daily shock by a factor derived from ATR(20)/price, clamped between 0.5 and 2.0 to avoid extreme cones.
• Performance guardrails : simulations are capped at 100 paths; the probability cone uses polylines (no heavy fills) and only draws on the last confirmed bar to keep charts responsive.
• Prerequisite data : at least ~30 seasonal entries are required before the model will draw a cone; otherwise it waits for more history.
Strengths and limitations
• Strengths :
– Probabilistic thinking replaces single-point guessing.
– Seasonality adds a small but meaningful directional bias that many markets exhibit.
– Volatility scaling adapts to the current regime so the cone stays realistic.
• Limitations :
– Seasonality can break around structural changes, policy shifts, or one-off events.
– The number of paths is performance-limited; percentile estimates are good for trading, not for academic precision.
– The model assumes tomorrow’s randomness resembles recent randomness; if regime shifts violently, the cone will lag until the EWMA adapts.
– Holidays and missing sessions can thin the seasonal sample for some assets; be cautious with very short histories.
Tuning guide
• Horizon : 10–20 bars for tactical trades; 30+ for swing planning when you care more about broad ranges than precise targets.
• Iterations : The default 100 is enough for stable 5/16/50/84/95 percentiles. If you crave smoother lines, shorten the horizon or run on higher timeframes.
• Daily vs. Weekly : Daily for equities and crypto where month-end and turn-of-month effects matter; Weekly for futures and FX where day-of-week behavior is strong.
• Volatility scaling : Keep it on. Turn off only when you intentionally want a “pure seasonality” cone unaffected by current turbulence.
Workflow examples
• Swing continuation : Cone slopes up, price pulls into the lower inner band, your system fires. Enter near the band, stop just outside the outer line for the next 3–5 bars, target near the median or the opposite inner band.
• Fade extremes : Cone is flat or down, price gaps to the upper outer band on news, then stalls. Favor mean-reversion toward the median, size small if volatility scaling is elevated.
• Event play : Before CPI or earnings on a proxy index, check cone width. If the inner band is already wide, cut size or prefer options structures that benefit from range.
Good habits
• Pair the cone with your entry engine (breakout, pullback, order flow). Let Monte Carlo do range math; let your system do signal quality.
• Do not anchor blindly to the median; recalc after each bar. When the cone’s slope flips or width jumps, the plan should adapt.
• Validate seasonality for your symbol and timeframe; not every market has strong calendar effects.
Summary
The Seasonality Monte Carlo Forecaster wraps institutional risk planning into a single overlay: a data-driven seasonal drift, realistic volatility scaling, and a probabilistic cone that answers “where could we be, with what odds?” within your trading horizon. Use it to place stops where randomness is less likely to take you out, to set targets aligned with realistic travel, and to size positions with confidence born from distributions rather than hunches. It will not predict the future, but it will keep your decisions anchored to probabilities—the language markets actually speak.

Information-Geometric Market DynamicsInformation-Geometric Market Dynamics
The Information Field: A Geometric Approach to Market Dynamics
By: DskyzInvestments
Foreword: Beyond the Shadows on the Wall
If you have traded for any length of time, you know " the feeling ." It is the frustration of a perfect setup that fails, the whipsaw that stops you out just before the real move, the nagging sense that the chart is telling you only half the story. For decades, technical analysis has relied on interpreting the shadows—the patterns left behind by price. We draw lines on these shadows, apply indicators to them, and hope they reveal the future.
But what if we could stop looking at the shadows and, instead, analyze the object casting them?
This script introduces a new paradigm for market analysis: Information-Geometric Market Dynamics (IGMD) . The core premise of IGMD is that the price chart is merely a one-dimensional projection of a much richer, higher-dimensional reality—an " information field " generated by the collective actions and beliefs of all market participants.
This is not just another collection of indicators. It is a unified framework for measuring the geometry of the market's information field—its memory, its complexity, its uncertainty, its causal flows—and making high-probability decisions based on that deeper reality. By fusing advanced mathematical and informational concepts, IGMD provides a multi-faceted lens through which to view market behavior, moving beyond simple price action into the very structure of market information itself.
Prepare to move beyond the flatland of the price chart. Welcome to the information field.
The IGMD Framework: A Multi-Kernel Approach
What is a Kernel? The Heart of Transformation
In mathematics and data science, a kernel is a powerful and elegant concept. At its core, a kernel is a function that takes complex, often inscrutable data and transforms it into a more useful format. Think of it as a specialized lens or a mathematical "probe." You cannot directly measure abstract concepts like "market memory" or "trend quality" by looking at a price number. First, you must process the raw price data through a specific mathematical machine—a kernel—that is designed to output a measurement of that specific property. Kernels operate by performing a sort of "similarity test," projecting data into a higher-dimensional space where hidden patterns and relationships become visible and measurable.
Why do creators use them? We use kernels to extract features —meaningful pieces of information—that are not explicitly present in the raw data. They are the essential tools for moving beyond surface-level analysis into the very DNA of market behavior. A simple moving average can tell you the average price; a suite of well-chosen kernels can tell you about the character of the price action itself.
The Alchemist's Challenge: The Art of Fusion
Using a single kernel is a challenge. Using five distinct, computationally demanding mathematical engines in unison is an immense undertaking. The true difficulty—and artistry—lies not just in using one kernel, but in fusing the outputs of many . Each kernel provides a different perspective, and they can often give conflicting signals. One kernel might detect a strong trend, while another signals rising chaos and uncertainty. The IGMD script's greatest strength is its ability to act as this alchemist, synthesizing these disparate viewpoints through a weighted fusion process to produce a single, coherent picture of the market's state. It required countless hours of testing and calibration to balance the influence of these five distinct analytical engines so they work in harmony rather than cacophony.
The Five Kernels of Market Dynamics
The IGMD script is built upon a foundation of five distinct kernels, each chosen to probe a unique and critical dimension of the market's information field.
1. The Wavelet Kernel (The "Microscope")
What it is: The Wavelet Kernel is a signal processing function designed to decompose a signal into different frequency scales. Unlike a Fourier Transform that analyzes the entire signal at once, the wavelet slides across the data, providing information about both what frequencies are present and when they occurred.
The Kernels I Use:
Haar Kernel: The simplest wavelet, a square-wave shape defined by the coefficients . It excels at detecting sharp, sudden changes.
Daubechies 2 (db2) Kernel: A more complex and smoother wavelet shape that provides a better balance for analyzing the nuanced ebb and flow of typical market trends.
How it Works in the Script: This kernel is applied iteratively. It first separates the finest "noise" (detail d1) from the first level of trend (approximation a1). It then takes the trend a1 and repeats the process, extracting the next level of cycle (d2) and trend (a2), and so on. This hierarchical decomposition allows us to separate short-term noise from the long-term market "thesis."
2. The Hurst Exponent Kernel (The "Memory Gauge")
What it is: The Hurst Exponent is derived from a statistical analysis kernel that measures the "long-term memory" or persistence of a time series. It is the definitive measure of whether a series is trending (H > 0.5), mean-reverting (H < 0.5), or random (H = 0.5).
How it Works in the Script: The script employs a method based on Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis. It calculates the average range of price movements over increasingly larger time lags (m1, m2, m4, m8...). The slope of the line plotting log(range) vs. log(lag) is the Hurst Exponent. Applying this complex statistical analysis not to the raw price, but to the clean, wavelet-decomposed trend lines, is a key innovation of IGMD.
3. The Fractal Dimension Kernel (The "Complexity Compass")
What it is: This kernel measures the geometric complexity or "jaggedness" of a price path, based on the principles of fractal geometry. A straight line has a dimension of 1; a chaotic, space-filling line approaches a dimension of 2.
How it Works in the Script: We use a version based on Ehlers' Fractal Dimension Index (FDI). It calculates the rate of price change over a full lookback period (N3) and compares it to the sum of the rates of change over the two halves of that period (N1 + N2). The formula d = (log(N1 + N2) - log(N3)) / log(2) quantifies how much "longer" and more convoluted the price path was than a simple straight line. This kernel is our primary filter for tradeable (low complexity) vs. untradeable (high complexity) conditions.
4. The Shannon Entropy Kernel (The "Uncertainty Meter")
What it is: This kernel comes from Information Theory and provides the purest mathematical measure of information, surprise, or uncertainty within a system. It is not a measure of volatility; a market moving predictably up by 10 points every bar has high volatility but zero entropy .
How it Works in the Script: The script normalizes price returns by the ATR, categorizes them into a discrete number of "bins" over a lookback window, and forms a probability distribution. The Shannon Entropy H = -Σ(p_i * log(p_i)) is calculated from this distribution. A low H means returns are predictable. A high H means returns are chaotic. This kernel is our ultimate gauge of market conviction.
5. The Transfer Entropy Kernel (The "Causality Probe")
What it is: This is by far the most advanced and computationally intensive kernel in the script. Transfer Entropy is a non-parametric measure of directed information flow between two time series. It moves beyond correlation to ask: "Does knowing the past of Volume genuinely reduce our uncertainty about the future of Price?"
How it Works in the Script: To make this work, the script discretizes both price returns and the chosen "driver" (e.g., OBV) into three states: "up," "down," or "neutral." It then builds complex conditional probability tables to measure the flow of information in both directions. The Net Transfer Entropy (TE Driver→Price minus TE Price→Driver) gives us a direct measure of causality . A positive score means the driver is leading price, confirming the validity of the move. This is a profound leap beyond traditional indicator analysis.
Chapter 3: Fusion & Interpretation - The Field Score & Dashboard
Each kernel is a specialist providing a piece of the puzzle. The Field Score is where they are fused into a single, comprehensive reading. It's a weighted sum of the normalized scores from all five kernels, producing a single number from -1 (maximum bearish information field) to +1 (maximum bullish information field). This is the ultimate "at-a-glance" metric for the market's net state, and it is interpreted through the dashboard.
The Dashboard: Your Mission Control
Field Score & Regime: The master metric and its plain-English interpretation ("Uptrend Field", "Downtrend Field", "Transitional").
Kernel Readouts (Wave Align, H(w), FDI, etc.): The live scores of each individual kernel. This allows you to see why the Field Score is what it is. A high Field Score with all components in agreement (all green or red) is a state of High Coherence and represents a high-quality setup.
Market Context: Standard metrics like RSI and Volume for additional confluence.
Signals: The raw and adjusted confluence counts and the final, calculated probability scores for potential long and short entries.
Pattern: Shows the dominant candlestick pattern detected within the currently forming APEX range box and its calculated confidence percentage.
Chapter 4: Mastering the Controls - The Inputs Menu
Every parameter is a lever to fine-tune the IGMD engine.
📊 Wavelet Transform: Kernel ( Haar for sharp moves, db2 for smooth trends) and Scales (depth of analysis) let you tune the script's core microscope to your asset's personality.
📈 Hurst Exponent: The Window determines if you're assessing short-term or long-term market memory.
🔍 Fractal Dimension & ⚡ Entropy Volatility: Adjust the lookback windows to make these kernels more or less sensitive to recent price action. Always keep "Normalize by ATR" enabled for Entropy for consistent results.
🔄 Transfer Entropy: Driver lets you choose what causal force to measure (e.g., OBV, Volume, or even an external symbol like VIX). The throttle setting is a crucial performance tool, allowing you to balance precision with script speed.
⚡ Field Fusion • Weights: This is where you can customize the model's "brain." Increase the weights for the kernels that best align with your trading philosophy (e.g., w_hurst for trend followers, w_fdi for chop avoiders).
📊 Signal Engine: Mode offers presets from Conservative to Aggressive . Min Confluence sets your evidence threshold. Dynamic Confluence is a powerful feature that automatically adapts this threshold to the market regime.
🎨 Visuals & 📏 Support/Resistance: These inputs give you full control over the chart's appearance, allowing you to toggle every visual element for a setup that is as clean or as data-rich as you desire.
Chapter 5: Reading the Battlefield - On-Chart Visuals
Pattern Boxes (The Large Rectangles): These are not simple range boxes. They appear when the Field Score crosses a significance threshold, signaling a potential ignition point.
Color: The color reflects the dominant candlestick pattern that has occurred within that box's duration (e.g., green for Bull Engulf).
Label: Displays the dominant pattern, its duration in bars, and a calculated Confidence % based on field strength and pattern clarity.
Bar Pattern Boxes (The Small Boxes): If enabled, these highlight individual, significant candlestick patterns ( BE for Bull Engulf, H for Hammer) on a bar-by-bar basis.
Signal Markers (▲ and ▼): These appear only when the Signal Engine's criteria are all met. The number is the calculated Probability Score .
RR Rails (Dashed Lines): When a signal appears, these lines automatically plot the Entry, Stop Loss (based on ATR), and two Take Profit targets (based on Risk/Reward ratios). They dynamically break and disappear as price touches each level.
Support & Resistance Lines: Plots of the highest high ( Resistance ) and lowest low ( Support ) over a lookback, providing key structural levels.
Chapter 6: Development Philosophy & A Final Word
One single question: " What is the market really doing? " It represents a triumph of complexity, blending concepts from signal processing, chaos theory, and information theory into a cohesive framework. It is offered for educational and analytical purposes and does not constitute financial advice. Its goal is to elevate your analysis from interpreting flat shadows to measuring the rich, geometric reality of the market's information field.
As the great mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot , father of fractal geometry, noted:
"Clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line."
Neither does the market. IGMD is a tool designed to navigate that beautiful, complex, and fractal reality.
