Uptrick X PineIndicators: Z-Score Flow StrategyThis strategy is based on the Z-Score Flow Indicator developed by Uptrick. Full credit for the original concept and logic goes to Uptrick.
The Z-Score Flow Strategy combines statistical mean-reversion logic with trend filtering, RSI confirmation, and multi-mode trade execution, offering a flexible and structured approach to trading both reversals and trend continuations.
Core Concepts Behind Z-Score Flow
1. Z-Score Mean Reversion Logic
The Z-score measures how far current price deviates from its statistical mean, in standard deviations.
A high positive Z-score (e.g. > 2) suggests price is overbought and may revert downward.
A low negative Z-score (e.g. < -2) suggests price is oversold and may revert upward.
The strategy uses Z-score thresholds to trigger signals when price deviates far enough from its mean.
2. Trend Filtering with EMA
To prevent counter-trend entries, the strategy includes a trend filter based on a 50-period EMA:
Only allows long entries if price is below EMA (mean-reversion in downtrends).
Only allows short entries if price is above EMA (mean-reversion in uptrends).
3. RSI Confirmation and Lockout System
An RSI smoothing mechanism helps confirm signals and avoid whipsaws:
RSI must be below 30 and rising to allow buys.
RSI must be above 70 and falling to allow sells.
Once a signal occurs, it is "locked out" until RSI re-enters the neutral zone (30–70).
This avoids multiple signals in overextended zones and reduces overtrading.
Entry Signal Logic
A buy or sell is triggered when:
Z-score crosses below (buy) or above (sell) the threshold.
RSI smoothed condition is met (oversold and rising / overbought and falling).
The trend condition (EMA filter) aligns.
A cooldown period has passed since the last opposite trade.
This layered approach helps ensure signal quality and timing precision.
Trade Modes
The strategy includes three distinct trade modes to adapt to various market behaviors:
1. Standard Mode
Trades are opened using the Z-score + RSI + trend filter logic.
Each signal must pass all layered conditions.
2. Zero Cross Mode
Trades are based on the Z-score crossing zero.
This mode is useful in trend continuation setups, rather than mean reversion.
3. Trend Reversal Mode
Trades occur when the mean slope direction changes, i.e., basis line changes color.
Helps capture early trend shifts with less lag.
Each mode can be customized for long-only, short-only, or long & short execution.
Visual Components
1. Z-Score Mean Line
The basis (mean) line is colored based on slope direction.
Green = bullish slope, Purple = bearish slope, Gray = flat.
A wide shadow band underneath reflects current trend momentum.
2. Gradient Fill to Price
A gradient zone between price and the mean reflects:
Price above mean = bearish zone with purple overlay.
Price below mean = bullish zone with teal overlay.
This visual aid quickly reveals market positioning relative to equilibrium.
3. Signal Markers
"𝓤𝓹" labels appear for buy signals.
"𝓓𝓸𝔀𝓷" labels appear for sell signals.
These are colored and positioned according to trend context.
Customization Options
Z-Score Period & Thresholds: Define sensitivity to price deviations.
EMA Trend Filter Length: Filter entries with long-term bias.
RSI & Smoothing Periods: Fine-tune RSI confirmation conditions.
Cooldown Period: Prevent signal spam and enforce timing gaps.
Slope Index: Adjust how far back to compare mean slope.
Visual Settings: Toggle mean lines, gradients, and more.
Use Cases & Strategy Strengths
1. Mean-Reversion Trading
Ideal for catching pullbacks in trending markets or fading overextended price moves.
2. Trend Continuation or Reversal
With multiple trade modes, traders can choose between fading price extremes or trading slope momentum.
3. Signal Clarity and Risk Control
The combination of Z-score, RSI, EMA trend, and cooldown logic provides high-confidence signals with built-in filters.
Conclusion
The Z-Score Flow Strategy by Uptrick X PineIndicators is a versatile and structured trading system that:
Fuses statistical deviation (Z-score) with technical filters.
Provides both mean-reversion and trend-based entry logic.
Uses visual overlays and signal labels for clarity.
Prevents noise-driven trades via cooldown and lockout systems.
This strategy is well-suited for traders seeking a data-driven, multi-condition entry framework that can adapt to various market types.

Triangular Hull Moving Average [BigBeluga X PineIndicators]This strategy is based on the original Triangular Hull Moving Average (THMA) + Volatility indicator by BigBeluga. Full credit for the concept and design goes to BigBeluga.
The strategy blends smoothed trend-following logic using a Triangular Hull Moving Average with dynamic volatility overlays, providing actionable trade signals with responsive visual feedback. It's designed for traders who want a non-lagging trend filter while also monitoring market volatility in real time.
How the Strategy Works
1. Triangular Hull Moving Average (THMA) Core
At its core, the strategy uses a Triangular Hull Moving Average (THMA) — a variation of the traditional Hull Moving Average with triple-smoothing logic:
It combines multiple weighted moving averages (WMAs) to create a faster and smoother trend line.
This reduces lag without compromising trend accuracy.
The THMA reacts more responsively to price movements than classic MAs.
THMA Formula:
thma(_src, _length) =>
ta.wma(ta.wma(_src,_length / 3) * 3 - ta.wma(_src, _length / 2) - ta.wma(_src, _length), _length)
This logic filters out short-term noise while still being sensitive to genuine trend shifts.
2. Volatility-Enhanced Candle Plotting
An optional volatility mode overlays the chart with custom candles that incorporate volatility bands:
Wicks expand and contract dynamically based on market volatility.
The volatility value is computed using a HMA of high-low range over a user-defined length.
The candle bodies reflect THMA values, while the wicks reflect the current volatility spread.
This feature allows traders to visually gauge the strength of price moves and anticipate possible breakouts or slowdowns.
3. Trend Reversal Signal Detection
The strategy identifies trend reversals when the THMA line crosses over/under its own past value:
A bullish signal is triggered when THMA crosses above its value from two bars ago.
A bearish signal is triggered when THMA crosses below its value from two bars ago.
These shifts are marked on the chart with triangle-shaped signals for clear visibility.
This logic helps detect momentum shifts early and enables reactive trade entries.
Trade Entry & Exit Logic
Trade Modes Supported
Users can choose between:
Only Long – Enters long trades only.
Only Short – Enters short trades only.

Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy [LuxAlgo X PineIndicators]This strategy is based on the Rally Base Drop (RBD) SND Pivots indicator developed by LuxAlgo. Full credit for the concept and original indicator goes to LuxAlgo.
The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy is a non-repainting supply and demand trading system that detects pivot points based on Rally, Base, and Drop (RBD) candles. This strategy automatically identifies key market structure levels, allowing traders to:
Identify pivot-based supply and demand (SND) zones.
Use fixed criteria for trend continuation or reversals.
Filter out market noise by requiring structured price formations.
Enter trades based on breakouts of key SND pivot levels.
How the Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy Works
1. Pivot Point Detection Using RBD Candles
The strategy follows a rigid market structure methodology, where pivots are detected only when:
A Rally (R) consists of multiple consecutive bullish candles.
A Drop (D) consists of multiple consecutive bearish candles.
A Base (B) is identified as a transition between Rallies and Drops, acting as a pivot point.
The pivot level is confirmed when the formation is complete.
Unlike traditional fractal-based pivots, RBD Pivots enforce stricter structural rules, ensuring that each pivot:
Has a well-defined bullish or bearish price movement.
Reduces false signals caused by single-bar fluctuations.
Provides clear supply and demand levels based on structured price movements.
These pivot levels are drawn on the chart using color-coded boxes:
Green zones represent bullish pivot levels (Rally Base formations).
Red zones represent bearish pivot levels (Drop Base formations).
Once a pivot is confirmed, the high or low of the base candle is used as the reference level for future trades.
2. Trade Entry Conditions
The strategy allows traders to select from three trading modes:
Long Only – Only takes long trades when bullish pivot breakouts occur.
Short Only – Only takes short trades when bearish pivot breakouts occur.
Long & Short – Trades in both directions based on pivot breakouts.
Trade entry signals are triggered when price breaks through a confirmed pivot level:
Long Entry:
A bullish pivot level is formed.
Price breaks above the bullish pivot level.
The strategy enters a long position.
Short Entry:
A bearish pivot level is formed.
Price breaks below the bearish pivot level.
The strategy enters a short position.
The strategy includes an optional mode to reverse long and short conditions, allowing traders to experiment with contrarian entries.
3. Exit Conditions Using ATR-Based Risk Management
This strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels:
Stop-Loss (SL): Placed 1 ATR below entry for long trades and 1 ATR above entry for short trades.
Take-Profit (TP): Set using a Risk-Reward Ratio (RR) multiplier (default = 6x ATR).
When a trade is opened:
The entry price is recorded.
ATR is calculated at the time of entry to determine stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Trades exit automatically when either SL or TP is reached.
If reverse conditions mode is enabled, stop-loss and take-profit placements are flipped.
Visualization & Dynamic Support/Resistance Levels
1. Pivot Boxes for Market Structure
Each pivot is marked with a colored box:
Green boxes indicate bullish demand zones.
Red boxes indicate bearish supply zones.
These boxes remain on the chart to act as dynamic support and resistance levels, helping traders identify key price reaction zones.
2. Horizontal Entry, Stop-Loss, and Take-Profit Lines
When a trade is active, the strategy plots:
White line → Entry price.
Red line → Stop-loss level.
Green line → Take-profit level.
Labels display the exact entry, SL, and TP values, updating dynamically as price moves.
Customization Options
This strategy offers multiple adjustable settings to optimize performance for different market conditions:
Trade Mode Selection → Choose between Long Only, Short Only, or Long & Short.
Pivot Length → Defines the number of required Rally & Drop candles for a pivot.
ATR Exit Multiplier → Adjusts stop-loss distance based on ATR.
Risk-Reward Ratio (RR) → Modifies take-profit level relative to risk.
Historical Lookback → Limits how far back pivot zones are displayed.
Color Settings → Customize pivot box colors for bullish and bearish setups.
Considerations & Limitations
Pivot Breakouts Do Not Guarantee Reversals. Some pivot breaks may lead to continuation moves instead of trend reversals.
Not Optimized for Low Volatility Conditions. This strategy works best in trending markets with strong momentum.
ATR-Based Stop-Loss & Take-Profit May Require Optimization. Different assets may require different ATR multipliers and RR settings.
Market Noise May Still Influence Pivots. While this method filters some noise, fake breakouts can still occur.
Conclusion
The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy is a non-repainting supply and demand system that combines:
Pivot-based market structure analysis (using Rally, Base, and Drop candles).
Breakout-based trade entries at confirmed SND levels.
ATR-based dynamic risk management for stop-loss and take-profit calculation.
This strategy helps traders:
Identify high-probability supply and demand levels.

Liquidity Sweep Filter Strategy [AlgoAlpha X PineIndicators]This strategy is based on the Liquidity Sweep Filter developed by AlgoAlpha. Full credit for the concept and original indicator goes to AlgoAlpha.
The Liquidity Sweep Filter Strategy is a non-repainting trading system designed to identify liquidity sweeps, trend shifts, and high-impact price levels. It incorporates volume-based liquidation analysis, trend confirmation, and dynamic support/resistance detection to optimize trade entries and exits.
This strategy helps traders:
Detect liquidity sweeps where major market participants trigger stop losses and liquidations.
Identify trend shifts using a volatility-based moving average system.
Analyze volume distribution with a built-in volume profile visualization.
Filter noise by differentiating between major and minor liquidity sweeps.
How the Liquidity Sweep Filter Strategy Works
1. Trend Detection Using Volatility-Based Filtering
The strategy applies a volatility-adjusted moving average system to determine trend direction:
A central trend line is calculated using an EMA smoothed over a user-defined length.
Upper and lower deviation bands are created based on the average price deviation over multiple periods.
If price closes above the upper band, the strategy signals an uptrend.
If price closes below the lower band, the strategy signals a downtrend.
This approach ensures that trend shifts are confirmed only when price significantly moves beyond normal market fluctuations.
2. Liquidity Sweep Detection
Liquidity sweeps occur when price temporarily breaks key levels, triggering stop-loss liquidations or margin call events. The strategy tracks swing highs and lows, marking potential liquidity grabs:
Bearish Liquidity Sweeps – Price breaks a recent high, then reverses downward.
Bullish Liquidity Sweeps – Price breaks a recent low, then reverses upward.
Volume Integration – The strategy analyzes trading volume at each sweep to differentiate between major and minor sweeps.
Key levels where liquidity sweeps occur are plotted as color-coded horizontal lines:
Red lines indicate bearish liquidity sweeps.
Green lines indicate bullish liquidity sweeps.
Labels are displayed at each sweep, showing the volume of liquidated positions at that level.
3. Volume Profile Analysis
The strategy includes an optional volume profile visualization, displaying how trading volume is distributed across different price levels.
Features of the volume profile:
Point of Control (POC) – The price level with the highest traded volume is marked as a key area of interest.
Bounding Box – The profile is enclosed within a transparent box, helping traders visualize the price range of high trading activity.
Customizable Resolution & Scale – Traders can adjust the granularity of the profile to match their preferred time frame.
The volume profile helps identify zones of strong support and resistance, making it easier to anticipate price reactions at key levels.
Trade Entry & Exit Conditions
The strategy allows traders to configure trade direction:
Long Only – Only takes long trades.
Short Only – Only takes short trades.
Long & Short – Trades in both directions.
Entry Conditions
Long Entry:
A bullish trend shift is confirmed.
A bullish liquidity sweep occurs (price sweeps below a key level and reverses).
The trade direction setting allows long trades.
Short Entry:
A bearish trend shift is confirmed.
A bearish liquidity sweep occurs (price sweeps above a key level and reverses).
The trade direction setting allows short trades.
Exit Conditions
Closing a Long Position:
A bearish trend shift occurs.
The position is liquidated at a predefined liquidity sweep level.
Closing a Short Position:

Market Trend Levels Non-Repainting [BigBeluga X PineIndicators]This strategy is based on the Market Trend Levels Detector developed by BigBeluga. Full credit for the concept and original indicator goes to BigBeluga.
The Market Trend Levels Detector Strategy is a non-repainting trend-following strategy that identifies market trend shifts using two Exponential Moving Averages (EMA). It also detects key price levels and allows traders to apply multiple filters to refine trade entries and exits.
This strategy is designed for trend trading and enables traders to:
Identify trend direction based on EMA crossovers.
Detect significant market levels using labeled trend lines.
Use multiple filter conditions to improve trade accuracy.
Avoid false signals through non-repainting calculations.
How the Market Trend Levels Detector Strategy Works
1. Core Trend Detection Using EMA Crossovers
The strategy detects trend shifts using two EMAs:
Fast EMA (default: 12 periods) – Reacts quickly to price movements.
Slow EMA (default: 25 periods) – Provides a smoother trend confirmation.
A bullish crossover (Fast EMA crosses above Slow EMA) signals an uptrend , while a bearish crossover (Fast EMA crosses below Slow EMA) signals a downtrend .
2. Market Level Detection & Visualization
Each time an EMA crossover occurs, a trend level line is drawn:
Bullish crossover → A green line is drawn at the low of the crossover candle.
Bearish crossover → A purple line is drawn at the high of the crossover candle.
Lines can be extended to act as support and resistance zones for future price action.
Additionally, a small label (●) appears at each crossover to mark the event on the chart.
3. Trade Entry & Exit Conditions
The strategy allows users to choose between three trading modes:
Long Only – Only enters long trades.
Short Only – Only enters short trades.
Long & Short – Trades in both directions.
Entry Conditions
Long Entry:
A bullish EMA crossover occurs.
The trade direction setting allows long trades.
Filter conditions (if enabled) confirm a valid long signal.
Short Entry:
A bearish EMA crossover occurs.
The trade direction setting allows short trades.
Filter conditions (if enabled) confirm a valid short signal.
Exit Conditions
Long Exit:
A bearish EMA crossover occurs.
Exit filters (if enabled) indicate an invalid long position.
Short Exit:
A bullish EMA crossover occurs.
Exit filters (if enabled) indicate an invalid short position.
Additional Trade Filters
To improve trade accuracy, the strategy allows traders to apply up to 7 additional filters:
RSI Filter: Only trades when RSI confirms a valid trend.
MACD Filter: Ensures MACD histogram supports the trade direction.
Stochastic Filter: Requires %K line to be above/below threshold values.
Bollinger Bands Filter: Confirms price position relative to the middle BB line.
ADX Filter: Ensures the trend strength is above a set threshold.
CCI Filter: Requires CCI to indicate momentum in the right direction.
Williams %R Filter: Ensures price momentum supports the trade.
Filters can be enabled or disabled individually based on trader preference.
Dynamic Level Extension Feature
The strategy provides an optional feature to extend trend lines until price interacts with them again:
Bullish support lines extend until price revisits them.
Bearish resistance lines extend until price revisits them.
If price breaks a line, the line turns into a dotted style , indicating it has been breached.
This helps traders identify key levels where trend shifts previously occurred, providing useful support and resistance insights.
Customization Options
The strategy includes several adjustable settings :
Trade Direction: Choose between Long Only, Short Only, or Long & Short.
Trend Lengths: Adjust the Fast & Slow EMA lengths.
Market Level Extension: Decide whether to extend support/resistance lines.
Filters for Trade Confirmation: Enable/disable individual filters.
Color Settings: Customize line colors for bullish and bearish trend shifts.
Maximum Displayed Lines: Limit the number of drawn support/resistance lines.

Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy [LazyBear + PineIndicators]The Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy (SQZMOM_LB Strategy) is an automated trading strategy based on the Squeeze Momentum Indicator developed by LazyBear, which itself is a modification of John Carter's "TTM Squeeze" concept from his book Mastering the Trade (Chapter 11). This strategy is designed to identify low-volatility phases in the market, which often precede explosive price movements, and to enter trades in the direction of the prevailing momentum.
Concept & Indicator Breakdown
The strategy employs a combination of Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) to detect market squeezes:
Squeeze Condition:
When Bollinger Bands are inside the Keltner Channels (Black Crosses), volatility is low, signaling a potential upcoming price breakout.
When Bollinger Bands move outside Keltner Channels (Gray Crosses), the squeeze is released, indicating an expansion in volatility.
Momentum Calculation:
A linear regression-based momentum value is used instead of traditional momentum indicators.
The momentum histogram is color-coded to show strength and direction:
Lime/Green: Increasing bullish momentum
Red/Maroon: Increasing bearish momentum
Signal Colors:
Black: Market is in a squeeze (low volatility).
Gray: Squeeze is released, and volatility is expanding.
Blue: No squeeze condition is present.
Strategy Logic
The script uses historical volatility conditions and momentum trends to generate buy/sell signals and manage positions.
1. Entry Conditions
Long Position (Buy)
The squeeze just released (Gray Cross after Black Cross).
The momentum value is increasing and positive.
The momentum is at a local low compared to the past 100 bars.
The price is above the 100-period EMA.
The closing price is higher than the previous close.
Short Position (Sell)
The squeeze just released (Gray Cross after Black Cross).
The momentum value is decreasing and negative.
The momentum is at a local high compared to the past 100 bars.
The price is below the 100-period EMA.
The closing price is lower than the previous close.
2. Exit Conditions
Long Exit:
The momentum value starts decreasing (momentum lower than previous bar).
Short Exit:
The momentum value starts increasing (momentum higher than previous bar).
Position Sizing
Position size is dynamically adjusted based on 8% of strategy equity, divided by the current closing price, ensuring risk-adjusted trade sizes.
How to Use This Strategy
Apply on Suitable Markets:
Best for stocks, indices, and forex pairs with momentum-driven price action.
Works on multiple timeframes but is most effective on higher timeframes (1H, 4H, Daily).
Confirm Entries with Additional Indicators:
The author recommends ADX or WaveTrend to refine entries and avoid false signals.
Risk Management:
Since the strategy dynamically sizes positions, it's advised to use stop-losses or risk-based exits to avoid excessive drawdowns.
Final Thoughts
The Squeeze Momentum Indicator Strategy provides a systematic approach to trading volatility expansions, leveraging the classic TTM Squeeze principles with a unique linear regression-based momentum calculation. Originally inspired by John Carter’s method, LazyBear's version and this strategy offer a refined, adaptable tool for traders looking to capitalize on market momentum shifts.
ADX for BTC [PineIndicators]The ADX Strategy for BTC is a trend-following system that uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to determine market strength and momentum shifts. Designed for Bitcoin trading, this strategy applies a customizable ADX threshold to confirm trend signals and optionally filters entries using a Simple Moving Average (SMA). The system features automated entry and exit conditions, dynamic trade visualization, and built-in trade tracking for historical performance analysis.
⚙️ Core Strategy Components
1️⃣ Average Directional Index (ADX) Calculation
The ADX indicator measures trend strength without indicating direction. It is derived from the Positive Directional Movement (+DI) and Negative Directional Movement (-DI):
+DI (Positive Directional Index): Measures upward price movement.
-DI (Negative Directional Index): Measures downward price movement.
ADX Value: Higher values indicate stronger trends, regardless of direction.
This strategy uses a default ADX length of 14 to smooth out short-term fluctuations while detecting sustainable trends.
2️⃣ SMA Filter (Optional Trend Confirmation)
The strategy includes a 200-period SMA filter to validate trend direction before entering trades. If enabled:
✅ Long Entry is only allowed when price is above a long-term SMA multiplier (5x the standard SMA length).
✅ If disabled, the strategy only considers the ADX crossover threshold for trade entries.
This filter helps reduce entries in sideways or weak-trend conditions, improving signal reliability.
📌 Trade Logic & Conditions
🔹 Long Entry Conditions
A buy signal is triggered when:
✅ ADX crosses above the threshold (default = 14), indicating a strengthening trend.
✅ (If SMA filter is enabled) Price is above the long-term SMA multiplier.
🔻 Exit Conditions
A position is closed when:
✅ ADX crosses below the stop threshold (default = 45), signaling trend weakening.
By adjusting the entry and exit ADX levels, traders can fine-tune sensitivity to trend changes.
📏 Trade Visualization & Tracking
Trade Markers
"Buy" label (▲) appears when a long position is opened.

MACD Volume Strategy for XAUUSD (15m) [PineIndicators]The MACD Volume Strategy is a momentum-based trading system designed for XAUUSD on the 15-minute timeframe. It integrates two key market indicators: the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and a volume-based oscillator to identify strong trend shifts and confirm trade opportunities. This strategy uses dynamic position sizing, incorporates leverage customization, and applies structured entry and exit conditions to improve risk management.
⚙️ Core Strategy Components
1️⃣ Volume-Based Momentum Calculation
The strategy includes a custom volume oscillator to filter trade signals based on market activity. The oscillator is derived from the difference between short-term and long-term volume trends using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
Short EMA (default = 5) represents recent volume activity.
Long EMA (default = 8) captures broader volume trends.
Positive values indicate rising volume, supporting momentum-based trades.
Negative values suggest weak market activity, reducing signal reliability.
By requiring positive oscillator values, the strategy ensures momentum confirmation before entering trades.
2️⃣ MACD Trend Confirmation
The strategy uses the MACD indicator as a trend filter. The MACD is calculated as:
Fast EMA (16-period) detects short-term price trends.
Slow EMA (26-period) smooths out price fluctuations to define the overall trend.
Signal Line (9-period EMA) helps identify crossovers, signaling potential trend shifts.
Histogram (MACD – Signal) visualizes trend strength.
The system generates trade signals based on MACD crossovers around the zero line, confirming bullish or bearish trend shifts.
📌 Trade Logic & Conditions
🔹 Long Entry Conditions
A buy signal is triggered when all the following conditions are met:
✅ MACD crosses above 0, signaling bullish momentum.
✅ Volume oscillator is positive, confirming increased trading activity.
✅ Current volume is at least 50% of the previous candle’s volume, ensuring market participation.
🔻 Short Entry Conditions
A sell signal is generated when:
✅ MACD crosses below 0, indicating bearish momentum.
✅ Volume oscillator is positive, ensuring market activity is sufficient.
✅ Current volume is less than 50% of the previous candle’s volume, showing decreasing participation.
This multi-factor approach filters out weak or false signals, ensuring that trades align with both momentum and volume dynamics.
📏 Position Sizing & Leverage
Dynamic Position Calculation:
Qty = strategy.equity × leverage / close price
Leverage: Customizable (default = 1x), allowing traders to adjust risk exposure.
Adaptive Sizing: The strategy scales position sizes based on account equity and market price.
Slippage & Commission: Built-in slippage (2 points) and commission (0.01%) settings provide realistic backtesting results.
This ensures efficient capital allocation, preventing overexposure in volatile conditions.
🎯 Trade Management & Exits
Take Profit & Stop Loss Mechanism
Each position includes predefined profit and loss targets:
Take Profit: +10% of risk amount.
Stop Loss: Fixed at 10,100 points.
The risk-reward ratio remains balanced, aiming for controlled drawdowns while maximizing trade potential.
Visual Trade Tracking
To improve trade analysis, the strategy includes:
📌 Trade Markers:
"Buy" label when a long position opens.
"Close" label when a position exits.
📌 Trade History Boxes:
Green for profitable trades.
Red for losing trades.
📌 Horizontal Trade Lines:
