Hilly's Reversal Scalping Strategy - 5 Min Candles

How to Use

Copy the Code: Copy the script above.
Paste in TradingView: Open TradingView, go to the Pine Editor (bottom of the chart), paste the code, and click “Add to Chart.”
Set Timeframe: Ensure the chart is set to 5-minute candles (TradingView: right-click chart > Timeframe > 5 Minutes).
Check for Errors: Verify no errors appear in the Pine Editor console.
Apply to Chart: Use a liquid crypto pair (e.g., BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT on Binance or Coinbase).
Verify Signals:

Green “BUY” labels and triangle-up arrows for bullish reversals (e.g., bullish engulfing, hammer, doji, morning star, three white soldiers, double bottom in a downtrend).
Red “SELL” labels and triangle-down arrows for bearish reversals (e.g., bearish engulfing, shooting star, doji, evening star, three black crows, double top in an uptrend).
Green/red background highlights for signal candles.


Backtest: Use TradingView’s Strategy Tester to evaluate performance over 1–3 months, checking Net Profit, Win Rate, and Drawdown.
Demo Test: Run on a demo account to confirm signal visibility and performance before trading with real funds.

Troubleshooting

If Errors Occur: If any errors appear in TradingView’s Pine Editor console (e.g., “Syntax error” or “Invalid argument”), please share the exact error messages to diagnose environment-specific issues.
Signal Overload: If too many signals appear, increase patternLookback to 15 or set volFilter = volume > volMa * 2.0.
Missed Signals: If signals are too rare, set useVolumeFilter=false or reduce patternLookback to 5.
Additional Features: If you need alerts, other indicators (e.g., EMA, RSI), or dynamic arrow sizing, please specify. Note that dynamic sizing caused errors previously, so I’ve kept size=size.normal.
