LuxAlgo - Backtester (S&O)The S&O Backtester is an innovative strategy script that encompasses features + optimization methods from our Signals & Overlays™ toolkit and combines them into one easy-to-use script for backtesting the most detailed trading strategies possible.
Our Signals & Overlays™ toolkit is notorious for its signal optimization methods such as the 'Optimal Sensitivity' displayed in its dashboard which provides optimization backtesting of the Sensitivity parameter for the Confirmation & Contrarian Signals.
This strategy script allows even more detailed & precise backtests than anything available previously in the Signals & Overlays™ toolkit; including External Source inputs allowing users to use any indicator including our other paid toolkits for take profit & stop loss customization to develop strategies, along with 10+ pre-built filters directly Signals & Overlays™' features.
🔶 Features
Full Sensitivity optimization within the dashboard to find the Best Win rates or Best Profits.
Counter Trade Mode to reverse signals in undesirable market conditions (may introduce higher drawdowns)
Built-in filters for Confirmation Signals w/ Indicator Overlays from Signals & Overlays™.
Built-in Confirmation exit points are available within the settings & on by default.
External Source Input to filter signals or set custom Take Profits & Stop Losses.
Optimization Matrix dashboard option showing all possible permutations of Sensitivity.
Option to Maximize for Winrate or Best Profit.
🔶 Settings
Sensitivity signal optimizations for the Confirmation Signals algorithm
Buy & Sell conditions filters with Indicator Overlays & External Source
Take Profit exit signals option
External Source for Take Profit & Stop Loss
Sensitivity ranges
Backtest window default at 2,000 bars

🔶 Usage
Backtests are not necessarily indicative of future results, although a trader may want to use a strategy script to have a deeper understanding of how their strategy responds to varying market conditions, or to use as a tool for identifying possible flaws in a strategy that could potentially be indicative of good or bad performance in the future.
A strategy script can also be useful in terms of it's ability to generate more complete & configurable alerts, giving users the option to integrate with external processes.
In the chart below we are using default settings and built-in optimization parameters to generate the highest win rate.
Results like the above will vary & finding a strategy with a high win rate does not necessarily mean it will persist into the future, however, some indications of a well-optimized strategy are:
A high number of closed trades (100+) with a consistently green equity curve
An equity curve that outperforms buy & hold
A low % max drawdown compared to the Net Profit %.
Profit factor around 1.5 or above
In the chart below we are using the Trend Catcher feature from Signals & Overlays™ as a filter for standard Confirmation Signals + exits on a higher timeframe.
By filtering bullish signals only when the Trend Catcher is bullish, as well as bearish signals for when the Trend Catcher is bearish, we have a highly profitable strategy created directly from our flagship features.
While the Signals & Overlays features being used as built-in filters can generate interesting backtests, the provided External Sources can allow for even more creativity when creating strategies. This feature allows you to use many indicators from TradingView as filters or to trigger take-profit/stop-loss events, even if they aren't from LuxAlgo.
The chart below shows the HyperWave Oscillator from our Oscillator Matrix™ being used for take-profit exit conditions, exiting a long position on a profit when crossing 80, and exiting a short position when crossing 20.
🔶 Counter Trade Mode
Our thesis has always firmly remained to use Confirmation Signals within Signals & Overlays™ as a supportive tool to find trends & use as extra confirmation within strategies.
We included the counter-trade mode as a logical way to use the Confirmation signals as direct entries for longs & shorts within more contrarian trading strategies. Many traders can relate to using a trend-following indicator and having the market not respect its conditions for entries.
This mode directly benefits a trader who is aware that market conditions are generally not-so-perfect trends all the time. Acknowledging this, allows the user to use this to their advantage by introducing countertrend following conditions as direct entries, which tend to perform very well in ranging markets.
The big downfall of using counter-trade mode is the potential for very large max-drawdowns during trending market conditions. We suggest for making a strategy to consider introducing stop-loss conditions that can efficiently minimize max-drawdowns during the process of backtesting your creations.
Sensitivity Optimization
Within the Signals & Overlays™ toolkit, we allow users to adjust the Confirmation Signals with a Sensitivity parameter.
We believe the Sensitivity paramter is the most realistic way to generate the most actionable Confirmation Signals that can navigate various market conditions, and the Confirmation Signals algorithm was designed specifically with this in mind.
This script takes this parameter and backtests it internally to generate the most profitable value to display on the dashboard located in the top right of the chart, as well as an optimization table if users enable it to visualize it's backtesting.
In the image below, we can see the optimization table showing permutations of settings within the user-selected Sensitivity range.
The suggested best setting is given at the current time for the backtesting window that's customizable within the indicator. Optimized settings for technical indicators are not indicative of future results and the best settings are highly likely / guaranteed to change over time.
Optimizing signal settings has become a popular activity amongst technical analysts, however, the real-time beneficial applications of optimizing settings are limited & best described as complicated (even with forward testing).
🔶 Strategy Properties (Important)
We strongly recommend all users to ensure they adjust the Properties within the script settings to be in line with their accounts & trading platforms of choice to ensure results from strategies built are realistic.

The Flower - Multiple Strategy Options in OneStrategy Overview
This strategy code currently includes four separate strategies to be used to either aid in discretionary trading or to be used algorithmically through the third-party system Profitview (profitview.app). Support for Pineconnector for use with MetaTrader 4 is in the works. The strategies have been designed with cryptocurrency trading in mind, however, the fundamentals apply to other assets.
The four strategies currently included are labeled “TSI Cross” (the default setting), “Oscillator Bands”, “Scalping”, and “McG/MA Cross”. Detailed information for each independent strategy can be found below, including sample settings configurations for each. A dropdown menu to select the strategy can be found under the “Strategy Options” set of settings under the Input tab of the strategy settings menu.
Additionally, the option to receive only long or short signals can be found alongside the Strategy Choice menu.
Take profit, stop loss, and trailing percentages are also included, found at the bottom of the Input tab under “TT and TTP” as well as “Stop Loss”. Make sure to understand the TP/SL ratio that you desire before use, as the desired hit rate/profitability percentage will be affected accordingly.
The only visuals associated with the strategy are two McGinley Dynamic lines, red (slow length) and green (fast length). These are relevant to the McGinley Cross strategy, but can be used alongside the other strategies if desired.
When viewing the backtesting data in the TradingView Strategy Tester, ensure that “use bar magnifier” is activated. This option can be found in the Properties tab of the strategy settings menu.
Profitview Settings
If you wish to utilize Profitview’s automation system, find the included “Profitview Settings” under the Input tab of the strategy settings menu. If not, skip this section entirely as it can be left blank. Options will be “OPEN LONG TITLE”, “OPEN SHORT TITLE”, “CLOSE LONG TITLE”, and “CLOSE SHORT TITLE”. If you wished to trade SOL, for example, you would put “SOL LONG”, “SOL SHORT”, “SOL CLOSE LONG”, and “SOL CLOSE SHORT” in these areas. Within your Profitview extension, ensure that your Alerts all match these titles. A sample of our Profitview syntax can be found below.
To set an alert for use with Profitview, go to the “Alerts” tab in TradingView, then create an alert. Make sure that your desired asset and timeframe are currently displayed on your screen when creating the alert. Under the “Condition” option of the alert, select the strategy, then select the expiration time. If using TradingView Premium, this can be open-ended. Otherwise, select your desired expiration time and date. This can be updated whenever desired to ensure the strategy does not expire. Under “Alert actions”, nothing necessarily needs to be selected unless so desired. Leave the “Alert name” option empty. For the “Message”, delete the generated message and replace it with {{strategy.order.alert_message}} and nothing else.
Strategy Choices
As mentioned above, this strategy code contains four separate strategy options. A detailed breakdown of each follows below:
Total Strength Index (TSI) Cross
This strategy option is the default choice. The main signal involved in this strategy is a crossover or crossunder of the TSI value line and TSI signal line, however, there are a few other signals involved in the creation of a long or short entry. In addition to the TSI, the strategy includes an Average Directional Index (ADX) threshold value, Jurik Volatility Bands (JVB), a Stoch RSI threshold, and an oscillator of choice in conjunction with a threshold of 0. This oscillator choice can be selected under the “Signal Options” menu in the Input tab of the strategy settings. The default oscillator is the Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO), though the option for Chande Momentum (CMO) or Rate of Change (RoC) are both viable for this strategy.
Individual settings for these can be found in the Input tab under “Oscillator Settings” (TSI, Stoch RSI, DPO, CMO, ROC), “Band/Channel Settings” (Jurik Volatility Bands Length/Smoothing), and “Directional Settings” (ADX Smoothing Long, DI Length Short, ADX Threshold).
Sample settings for SOLUSDT using the 20M timeframe:
- Oscillator Settings -- DPO Length (21), DPO *not* centered, RSI (Stoch) Length (4), Stochastic Length (4), TSI Long Length (25), TSI Short Length (13), TSI Signal Length (13), K (3), D (3)
- Band/Channel Settings -- Jurik Volatility Bands Length (25), Jurik Volatility Bands Smoothing (5)
- Directional Settings – JVB Price Threshold (0), ADX Smoothing Long (5), DI Length Short (5), ADX Threshold (23)
- Take Profit/Stop Loss – 0.85% TP, 0.005% TTP, 1.3% SL
Oscillator Bands
This strategy involves the usage of bands or channels that use oscillators as a source input. The main signal for this strategy derives from a cross of the band or channel and a hline of 0. Additionally, this includes a “Directional Filter” and a “MA Filter”. The selections for all of these can be found in the “Signal Options” section of the Input tab.
First option is for Oscillator Choice and includes DPO, CMO, ROC, RSI, TSI, and the Jurik price line. The individual settings for these can be found in the “Oscillator Settings” section. Different channels can be selected for the upper or lower bands, though it is not necessary for them to differ. These current options include Bollinger Bands and Jurik Volatility Bands, the individual settings for each found in the “Band/Channel Settings” section. Next is the MA Filter, of which you can select SMA, EMA, SMMA, WMA, VWMA, KAMA, JMA, or McGinley Dynamic. All options for these settings can be found in the “MA Filter Settings” section. Lastly, the Directional Filters can be selected for either direction like the upper/lower band selection. These filters include the ADX, Bull-Bear Power (BBP), Parabolic SAR (PSAR), or Jurik.
Sample settings for WAVESUSDT using the 20M timeframe:
- Oscillator Choice – DPO (Length – 30, uncentered)
- Upper and Lower Band – JVB Upper/Lower (Jurik Volatility Bands Length – 25; Smoothing – 10)
- MA Filter – VWMA – (MA Length – 40; Source – Open)
- Directional Filter – ADX (ADX Smoothing Long – 14; DI Length Short – 5; ADX Threshold – 22)
- Take Profit/Stop Loss – 0.85% TP, 0.005% TTP, 1.3% SL
Scalping
This strategy heavily relies on the usage of Parabolic SAR, accompanied by a “Directional Filter” (as discussed in the previous section) other than PSAR. This strategy can provide a higher frequency of trades as opposed to the other strategies available, however, it comes with slightly higher risk inherently. A riskier take profit/stop loss spread is recommended here, though risk should always be managed. The settings required for this strategy are all found under the “Directional Settings” section of the strategy inputs.
Sample settings for NEARUSDT using the 20M timeframe:
- Directional Filter set to ADX
- Directional Settings – ADX Smoothing Long (5), DI Length Short (5), ADX Threshold (22), PSAR Start Value (0.02), PSAR Increment (0.005), PSAR Max Value (0.15), PSAR Source (Close)
- Take Profit/Stop Loss – 0.75% TP, 0.005% TTP, 1.5% SL
McGinley Cross
This strategy revolves around the crossing of two McGinley Dynamic lines of varying lengths alongside an ADX filter as well as a DPO filter. McGinley is used as opposed to a standard moving average cross strategy as it adjusts for shifts in market speed and can better gauge market trends. The McGinley length settings can be found with the “MA Filter” settings, labeled as Fast Length and Slow Length. The fast length number should be smaller than the slow length.
Sample settings for SOLUSDT using the 20M timeframe:
- Oscillator Settings – DPO Length (30), uncentered
- MA Filter Settings – McGinley Fast Length (4), McGinley Slow Length (21)
- Take Profit/Stop Loss – 0.85% TP, 0.005% TTP, 1.4% SL

These strategies do NOT guarantee future returns. Apply caution in trading regardless of discretionary or algorithmic. Understand the concepts of risk/reward and the intricacies of each strategy choice before utilizing them in your personal trading.
Invites to the strategy will only be disseminated to those with express consent and knowledge of the invite prior to the action itself.
Wunder Keltner botWunder Keltner bot
1. Wunder Keltner bot is based on the breakout of the Keltner channel. For calculation, 2 channels are used, one for long trades, and the other for short trades. The division into 2 channels is used for more accurate entry calculations depending on trend directions.
2. The ADX indicator is used to filter signals and determine the trend strength. ADX determines the strength of the trend and confirms the entry into the strategy if the value is greater than the level indicated in the settings.
3. There are 3 ways to calculate Stop Loss and Take Profit. You can choose one of them:
Classic Stop Loss and Take Profit in a fixed percentage
ATR Stop Loss
Keltner. Stop Loss, which is set on the opposite Keltner’s Channel Band from Keltner breakout.
4. ATR and Keltner use Risk Reward (R:R) to calculate Take Profit. The script calculates Risk Reward based on the determined Stop loss level and uses the ration to calculate Take Profit.
5. A function for calculating risk on the portfolio (your deposit) has been added to the script. When this option is enabled, you get a calculation of the entry amount in dollars relative to your Stop Loss. In the settings, you can select the risk percentage on your portfolio. The loss will be calculated from the amount that will be displayed on the chart.
For example. Deposit - $1000, you set the risk to 1%. SL 5%. Entry volume will be $200. The loss at SL will be $10.10$ this is your 1% risk or 1% of the deposit.
Important! The risk per trade must be less than the Stop Loss value. If the risk is greater than SL, then you should use leverage.
The amount of funds entering the trade is calculated in dollars. This option was created if you want to send the dollar amount from Tradingview to the exchange. However, putting your volume in dollars you get the incorrect net profit and drawdown indication in the backtest results, as TradingView calculates the backtest volume in contracts.
To display the correct net profit and drawdown values in Tradingview Backtest results, use the ”Volume in contract” option.
MACD MTF Strategy [JoseMetal]============
ENGLISH
============
- Description:
This strategy uses my indicator MACD MTF (check my profile) to generate entries, it also has ATR to define Stop Loss and Take Profit if needed.
The strategy has several customizable options, which allows you to refine the strategy for your asset and timeframe.
You can customize settings for ALL indicator settings (MACD MTF and ATR).
- CUSTOM CONDITIONS TO ENTER A POSITION:
1. Both MACDs agree (current timeframe and higher timeframe).
2. Current timeframe MACD crossover.
3. Higher timeframe MACD crossover.
4. MACDs no longer agree with each other.
- EXIT CONDITION:
1. Predefined Stop Loss and Take Profit based on ATR (stop can be previous wick).
2. MACDs no longer agree with each other.
3. Opposite position entry.
- STOP LOSS TYPE:
1. ATR.
2. Previous wick.
- OTHER OPTIONS:
You can customize any setting for my MACD MTF and ATR.
- Visual:
ATR is shown for the Stop Loss / Take Profit.
The script prints the Take Profit as a green line, Stop Loss as a red line and entry price with a white line.
- Recommendations:
Recommended on 8H or 12H timeframe for the CURRENT timeframe, while using DAILY for the higher timeframe on the MACD MFT (by default).
Entry when BOTH MACDs agree and exit on opposite entry, this has NO TAKE PROFIT or STOP LOSS, so be careful, but gives the BEST profit overall, and being on 8H/12H + Daily lets you relax.
- Customization:
As you can see, almost everything is customizable, for colors and plotting styles check the "Style" tab.
Enjoy!

The Impossible TraderTHE IMPOSSIBLE TRADER
A simple, but effective High Freq Strategy script based on MACD or RSI trend, with extra customizable Alert Messages for Bots.
WHAT IT DOES
This script (works best at lower TimeFrames) just follow the trend of MACD or RSI on your asset.
Why it should work? Because in an upper trend, there are more chance of green candles than reds. And in dump trend there are more chance of red candles than greens.
While trend is positive, it will try to open Long orders as fast as possible at market price.
While trend is negative, it will try to open Short orders as fast as possible at market price.
HOW TO SETUP YOUR PREFERENCES
Capital : Insert a % of Margin you want to use for your positions (usually 30% is quite good)
Leverage : Choose leverage based on your plans
Trail Tick @ : This value (in Tick) tell the script "when" the "Trail Stop" order must be activated (from the Entry price)
Offset Tick @ : This is the price (in Tick) from the Trail Stop Price activated. Basically it is a Stop Loss that follow the price at a fixed distance.
SL Tick @ : Set a Stop Loss at amount Tick distance from the Entry Price. (Let's call it a Safety Stop Loss for bad decisions...)
TP Tick @ : Set a Take Profit at amount Tick distance from the Entry Price. Sometimes is better to exit in full Gain than keep positions.
Strategy : You can choose a Only Long, Only Short or Long+Short sametime strategy.
with MACD or RSI : You can try the strategy applied on MACD or applied on customizable RSI EMA
EMA : If you choosed RSI EMA, you can set any value for your testing (usually 80-120 works very nice)
Exit order after bars : Some Exchanges / Brokers apply fixed cost, and a strategy too fast could not be productive. This set will let you to delay the Exit Order on already Opened positions.
Keep Stop Loss active : If you are planning a delay for Exit Orders, sometime could be useful to keep activated Stop Loss.
Strategy Preset : Some preset I've found interesting, with good results.
BackTest Days : If there are too many results and script doesn't work, you can choose a closer range to show results.
EXTRA FEATURES
On Screen Display : OSD will show you some realtime stats about your strategy, like Asset Tick, Trading Period Range, Drawdown, Gains and not closed trade.
Alert Message : You can enter custom Long Entry/Exit and Short Entry/Exit message for your Bots (like AutoView, WunderBit, etc...). When alert is triggered, you can send custom message with {{strategy.order.comment}} in the text field
AutoView Alert Message : If you are user of AutoView, you can generate your calls. Those are tested only on Oanda with index like Sp500, US100, Us30.
TIPS ON USE
Some asset on TradingView require an higher initial capital. Go to this Script Settings -> Properties and rise Initial Capital.
Be aware of commissions and spread when evalutating a strategy. Go to this Script Settings -> Properties and set Commission and Slippage
Trail Stop and Ticks could be difficult to understand, but very profitable. Please take your time and study how it works.
Consider Tick like the minimum movement your asset can do. Ticks occurs "intra-bar", so some of your positions could be closed almost instantly.
Consider Trail Stop like a Stop Loss that keep always the same distance from your positions, but never came back . If you are in gain, say of 10 Ticks, and your Trail have 5 Ticks, this means for sure a close at minimum 5 Ticks from Entry Price.
On Screen Display will show you Ticks for your asset. This will help you on strategy settings, because not all asset responds on the same way.
ONLY LONG EXAMPLE
ONLY SHORT EXAMPLE
Loft Strategy V4This strategy is an advanced version of the Loft Strategy V1, I shared earlier. (Loft Strategy V1 consists of a kalman filter (by alexgrover ) and a "stop and reverse" line which is following and the kalman filter. If the price goes in the same direction as the position side, the "stop and reverse" line approaches the kalman filter as set on the "Approach Decrease Step" parameter.)
In addition to the previous version, it includes a martingale like deviation and multiple take-profit.
Here it is some parameters definitions of the strategy:
Kalman Filter: The higher this parameter, the faster and more aggressive the filter. Otherwise the filter goes very smoothly
Beginning Approach: First approximation as a percentage of stop-n-reverse line
Final Approach: Minimum approximation of stop-n-reverse line
Approach Decrease Step: If the price moves in the same direction as the strategy, the approach percentage is reduced by this parameter. Otherwise nothing do
Base Order Quantity: Initial capital of position
Max Safe Order Attempt: This parameter determines the maximum number of times the strategy will raise the bet after losing in a row.
Safe Order Deviation: if the last trade is loss, multiply the bet by this parameter (aka. martingale factor)
Profit Deviation: if last trade in loss, multiply the take-profit points
Max Order Quantity: Maximum capital allowed for a position
TP1, TP2, TP3 : Take profit spots in percentage
QT1, QT2, QT3: Amount of take-profit spots
Stop Loss: Maximum stop loss allowed for a trade
Long Entry, Short Entry: Only long side, only short side or both side
Safe Stop After TP2: If the price reaches the TP2 point, move the stop-loss point to the entry price.
Safe Stop After TP1: If the price reaches TP1, move the stop-loss point to the stop-n-reverse line.
Double SupertrendThis strategy is based on a custom indicator that was created based on the Supertrend indicator. At its core, there are always 2 super trend indicators with different factors to reduce market noise (false signals).
The strategy/indicator has some parameters to improve the signals and filters.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
☑ Show Indicators
This option will enable/disable the Supertrend indicators on the chart.
☑ Length
The length will be used on the Supertrend Indicator to calculate its values.
☑ Dev Fast
The fast deviation or factor from one of the super trend indicators. This will be the leading indicator for entry signals, as well as for the exit signals.
☑ Dev Slow
The slow deviation or factor from one of the super trend indicators. This will be the confirmation indicator for entry and exit signals.
☑ Exit Type
It's possible to select from 4 options for the exit signals. Exit signals always take profit target.
☑ ⥹ Reversals
This option will make the strategy/indicator calculate the exit signals based on the difference between the given period's highest and lowest candle value (see Period on this list). It's displayed on the chart with the cross. As it's possible to verify in the image below, there are multiple exit spots for every entry.
☑ ⥹ ATR
Using ATR as a base indicator for exit signals will make the strategy/indicator place limit/stop orders. Candle High + ATR for longs, Candle Low - ATR for shorts. The strategy will show the ATR level for take profit and stick with it until the next signal. This way, the take profit value remains based on the candle of the entry signal.
☑ ⥹ Fast Supertrend
With this option selected, the exit signals will be based on the Fast Supertsignal value, mirrored to make a profit.
☑ ⥹ Slow Supertrend
With this option selected, the exit signals will be based on the Slow Supertsignal value, which is mirrored to take profit.
☑ Period
This will represent the number of candles used on the exit signals when Reversals is selected as Exit Type. It's also used to calculate the gradient used on the Fills and Supertrend signals.
☑ Multiplier
It's used on the take profit when the ATR option is selected on the Exit Type.
STRATEGY
☑ Use The Strategy
This will enable/disable the strategy to show the trades calculations.
☑ Show Use Long/Short Entries
Option to make the strategy show/use Long or Short signals. Available only if Use The Strategy is enabled
☑ Show Use Exit Long/Short
Option to make the strategy show/use Exit Long or Short signals (valid when Reversals option is selected on the Exit Type). Available only if Use The Strategy is enabled
☑ Show Use Add Long/Short
Option to make the strategy show/use Add Long or Short signals. With this option enabled, the strategy will place multiple trades in the same direction, almost the same concept as a pyramiding parameter. It's based on the Fast Supersignal when the candle fails to cross and reverses. Available only if Use The Strategy is enabled
☑ Trades Date Start/End
The date range that the strategy will check the market data and make the trades
HOW TO USE
It's very straightforward. A long signal will appear as a green arrow with a text Long below it. A short signal will appear as a red arrow with a text Short above it. It's ideal to wait for the candle to finish to validate the signal.
The exit signals are optional but give a good idea of the configuration used when backtesting. Each market and timeframe will have its own configuration for the best results. On average, sticking to ATR as an exit signal will have less risk than the other options.
☑ Entry Signals
Follow the arrows with Long/Short texts on them. Wait for the signal candle to close to validate the entry.
☑ Exit Signals
Use them to close your position or to trail stop your orders and maximize profits. Select the exit type suitable for each timeframe and market
☑ Add Entries
It's possible to increase the position following the add margin/contracts based on the Add signals. Not mandatory, but may work as reentries or late entries using the same signal.
☑ What about Stop Loss?
The stop-loss levels were not included as a separated signal because it's already in the chart. There are some possible ideas for the stop loss:
☑⥹ Candle High/Low (2nd recommend option)
When it's a Long signal from the entry signal candle, the stop loss can be the Low value of the same candle. Very tight stop loss in some cases, depending on the candle range
☑⥹ Local Top/Bottom
Selecting the local top/bottom as stop loss will give the strategy more room for false breakouts or reversals, keeping the trade open and minimizing noises. Increases the risk
☑⥹ Fast Supertrend (1st recommend option)
The fast supertrend can be used as stop-loss as well. making it a moving level and working close to trail stop management
☑⥹ Fixed Percentage
It's possible to use a fixed risk percentage for the trades, making the risk easier to control and project. Since the market volatility is not fixed, this may affect the accuracy of the trades
☑⥹ Based on the ATR (3rd recommend option)
When the exit type option ATR is selected, it will display the take profit level for that entry. Just mirror that value and put it as stop-loss, or multiply that amount by 1.5 to have more room for market noise.
EXAMPLE CONFIGURATIONS
Here are some configuration ideas for some markets (all of them are from crypto, especially futures markets)
BTCUSDT 15min - Default configuration
BTCUSDT 1h - Length 10 | Dev Fast 3 | Dev Slow 4 | Exit Type ATR | Period 50 | Multiplier 1

HOW TO FIND OTHER CONFIGURATIONS
Here are some steps to find suitable configurations
select a market and time frame
enable the Use This Strategy option on the strategy
open the strategy tester panel and select the performance summary
open the strategy configuration and go to properties
change the balance to the same price of the symbol (example: BTCUSDT 60.000, use 60.000 as balance)
go back to the inputs tab and keep changing the parameters until you see the net profit be positive and bigger than the absolute value of the drawdown
in case you can't find a suitable configuration, try other timeframes
Since the tester reflects what happened in the past candles, it's not guaranteed to give the same results. However, this indicator/Strategy can be used with other indicators as a leading signal or confirmation signal.
RSI Strategy w/ Trailing SL / TP Optimized for Crypto [Strategy]This strategy is designed to use the RSI and EMA filters. A 200 period EMA is used for short / long filters, and the 50 period EMA is used to determine the direction of the short term trend.
In addition, the script uses "rate of change" for the fast EMA (trend), volume , RSI (momentum), and price (volatility) and only takes trades when all are in optimal conditions.
I.E., the EMA is in an uptrend, the volume is increasing, price is in an uptrend, and the RSI is in an uptrend, so we will place a Long trade.
This strategy uses EMAs as a trailing stop loss and take profit. As this is a trend following strategy, the idea is to maximize profits when correct and minimize losses when
wrong.
It was designed specifically using crypto pairs, and was optimized for the 10 minute chart.
My goal was to get the best use out of the RSI indicator. I was originally an MACD fanboy, but have recently converted.

Thanks for using my script! I hope it works well for you and good luck in the markets.
If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments and I'll do my best to respond.
This script does not repaint as it only relies on close data to make a decision to enter a trade.
How to use this strategy:
___________________________
Enable Long Entries? - Used to enable or disable the strategy from executing long entries.
Enable Short Entries? - Used to enable or disable the strategy from executing short entries.
How Many Bars To Look Back for Hi/Lo: - This is used for the Stop Loss and Take Profit targets. An integer of bars is used to look back and calculate the values.
RSI Length (Rec: 8) - The length of the RSI
Source - The RSI Source
Use Slow EMA? - If checked, a 200 period EMA will be used to filter entries long or short (only take shorts when the price is below, long when above). In addition, the script will close any trades that cross the 200 period EMA. By default this is disabled.
EMA Slow - the period of the Slow EMA (200 by default)
EMA Slow Src - what to use to calculate the Slow EMA (high by default)
EMA Fast - The Fast EMA (50 period) is used to calculate the direction of the short term trend. This also factored into the Rates of Change.
EMA Fast Src - what to use to calculate the Fast EMA
ATR Length - If used, the ATR length is used to calculate the Stop Loss and Take Profit targets.
SL Multiplier - The distance away from the initial value to multiply the Stop Loss
TP Multiplier - The distance away from the initial value to multiply the Take Profit.
Use EMA as SL / TP? - If true (default) a 3 period EMA is used to calculate Stop Loss and Take Profit targets. Else, an ATR is used to calculate these values.
Stop Loss / Take Profit Offset - Default: 3 - this is used to shift the EMA / ATR Stop Loss and Take Profit lines to the right X bars. This is to ensure that they are hit properly and not exceeded.
Short Len Vol - Use to calculate the volume of the short length, used in rate of change calculations
Long Len - Use to calculate the volume of the long length, used in rate of change calculations
RSI Long Entry Val - Minimum RSI crossover value to enter a trade Long. If the RSI is below this value, trade entries are not valid.
RSI Long Cutoff Threshold - Long entry RSI value cutoff to no longer enter trades. If the RSI is above this value, trades entries are not valid.
RSI Short Entry Val - Minimum RSI crossover value to enter a trade Short. If the RSI is above this value, trade entries are not valid.
RSI Short Cutoff Threshold - Short entry RSI value cutoff to no longer enter trades. If the RSI is below this value, trades entries are not valid.
ROC Fast EMA - Calculates the rate of change between the Fast Ema now and 'X' bars ago. \n\n For a long entry, a positive value is needed, and for a short entry, a negative value is needed.
ROC Price - Calculates the rate of change between the most recent price close and 'X' bars ago. \n\n For a long entry, a positive value is needed, and for a short entry, a negative value is needed.
ROC RSI - Calculates the rate of change between the RSI now and 'X' bars ago. \n\n For a long entry, a positive value is needed, and for a short entry, a negative value is needed.
Use Close for SL - Default = Off - If checked, when a candle hits the stop loss, the trade will close on the next candle. If unchecked, the trade will remain open until the candle closes at or beyond the stop loss lines.
Custom Message Boxes - Primarily used for bots, but can be used to also insert your own messages for your trading alerts.
BTC|scanner|LONG|SHORT|30min STRATEGY- This strategy based on BTC|Scanner| v0.6b INDICATOR.
- Stop loss and take profit settings are available.
- This strategy can be used on a 30m timeframe and does not require fine tuning.
Detailed description of the strategy:
-According to the terms of the strategy:
-The initial deposit is $ 1000.
-The entry into the trade is carried out with the leverage from x3 to x8.
-Each entry/exit is shown by up/down arrows on the chart, the number of arrows shows the size of the leverage in the trade.
-Enter the trade with 100% of the deposit.
-All of the above suggests that with the input signal and the indication of the three arrows, an entry in the amount of$3000 will be made. If the shooter is 5, then$5000.
-Exit from the long/short position under the strategy conditions is carried out by 33% of the initial position volume on all TP (you can specify an unrealistic value of TP3, then the exit of 33% will be due only to an increase in the risk of further holding the position, but this can both increase profit and reduce it).
-To avoid distortion of the strategy indicators due to compound interest, it is recommended to take a period of a month to view statistics.
-The "Enter Confirm" field displays the confirmation of the trade, if several signals appear sequentially, the trade will be executed, and if the signal appears once, the trade will be skipped.
-The "ratio" field indicates the coefficient of change in activity on the current bar from the previous bar.
-The "Corner" field changes the angle of the stop loss correction depending on the time in the direction of reducing the loss.
-The "Short trigger" field indicates from which phase of activity you can open a short trade, conditionally this is a sinusoid with a lower limit of 0 and an upper limit of 100, but the sinusoid itself does not necessarily reach 0 and 100, the activity can stop at 80 and go towards 0 (initially the value 65 is specified).
-The "TP and Stop loss" fields are the percentage of profit / loss multiplied by 10. (the value 35 corresponds to 3.5%, 20-2% , and so on).
-The "cross action" field includes closing the trade when the activity sinusoid reaches the value of 99, regardless of any other calculations.
-The stop loss is displayed on the chart with orange and white dots.
The indicator and strategy can be applied not only to BTC , but it often has poor statistics on illiquid instruments.

Zeta Bank Nifty & Nifty50The Problems of Day Trading
Lot many indicators are made by thousands of traders all over the world, which give good or not so good signals.
Despite good signals, many times we end up in loss because we could not take entry or could not exit at appropriate time-point.
Sometimes even winning position also comes into loss if market takes back whatever you gained till a certain point.
Also, there are professional, office going people who can not take trades on their own during office-hours.
To solve all these problems, you need an automated strategy which could take trades, trail your stop loss up and exit when stop loss gets hit.
Strategy also lets you know how a certain formula performed over a period of time.
How this strategy works?
The strategy generates trades with 02 type of formulas:
1. It seeks price breaking away from support/resistance (up or down) which is calculated with the help of automatically detected pivot points.
2. It seeks reversal based upon RSI and Price Action.
If there are no open positions right now and a Buy/Sell signal comes, 1 lot is bought or sold.
This position is closed when either Stop Loss gets hit or when opposite signal comes.
What are other features of the strategy
1. You can set the session time when you want the strategy to take trades. For example, if you want to take trades only between 10:00 hrs and 14:00 hrs, that can be set in settings.
2. You can set up your own Stop Loss percentage, but the optimum value, as we found fit in backtesting, is set at 0.5%
3. There is a max. daily loss safeguard also which by default is set at 5%. It means if a series of losses happen during the day and your capital loss reaches this maximum loss value set by you, the strategy stops trading for that day.
4. There is an option to close all positions by End of Day. By default, this feature is disabled, but you can enable it if you don't want to carry forward your positions.
5. A label displayed at the last bar gives you cumulative profit or loss and daily profit/loss statistics.
888 BOT #backtest█ 888 BOT #backtest (open source)
This is an Expert Advisor 'EA' or Automated trading script for ‘longs’ and ‘shorts’, which uses only a Take Profit or, in the worst case, a Stop Loss to close the trade.
It's a much improved version of the previous ‘Repanocha’. It doesn`t use 'Trailing Stop' or 'security()' functions (although using a security function doesn`t mean that the script repaints) and all signals are confirmed, therefore the script doesn`t repaint in alert mode and is accurate in backtest mode.
Apart from the previous indicators, some more and other functions have been added for Stop-Loss, re-entry and leverage.
It uses 8 indicators, (many of you already know what they are, but in case there is someone new), these are the following:
1. Jurik Moving Average
It's a moving average created by Mark Jurik for professionals which eliminates the 'lag' or delay of the signal. It's better than other moving averages like EMA , DEMA , AMA or T3.
There are two ways to decrease noise using JMA . Increasing the 'LENGTH' parameter will cause JMA to move more slowly and therefore reduce noise at the expense of adding 'lag'
The 'JMA LENGTH', 'PHASE' and 'POWER' parameters offer a way to select the optimal balance between 'lag' and over boost.
Green: Bullish , Red: Bearish .
2. Range filter
Created by Donovan Wall, its function is to filter or eliminate noise and to better determine the price trend in the short term.
First, a uniform average price range 'SAMPLING PERIOD' is calculated for the filter base and multiplied by a specific quantity 'RANGE MULTIPLIER'.
The filter is then calculated by adjusting price movements that do not exceed the specified range.
Finally, the target ranges are plotted to show the prices that will trigger the filter movement.
Green: Bullish , Red: Bearish .
3. Average Directional Index ( ADX Classic) and ( ADX Masanakamura)
It's an indicator designed by Welles Wilder to measure the strength and direction of the market trend. The price movement is strong when the ADX has a positive slope and is above a certain minimum level 'ADX THRESHOLD' and for a given period 'ADX LENGTH'.
The green color of the bars indicates that the trend is bullish and that the ADX is above the level established by the threshold.
The red color of the bars indicates that the trend is down and that the ADX is above the threshold level.
The orange color of the bars indicates that the price is not strong and will surely lateralize.
You can choose between the classic option and the one created by a certain 'Masanakamura'. The main difference between the two is that in the first it uses RMA () and in the second SMA () in its calculation.
4. Parabolic SAR
This indicator, also created by Welles Wilder, places points that help define a trend. The Parabolic SAR can follow the price above or below, the peculiarity that it offers is that when the price touches the indicator, it jumps to the other side of the price (if the Parabolic SAR was below the price it jumps up and vice versa) to a distance predetermined by the indicator. At this time the indicator continues to follow the price, reducing the distance with each candle until it is finally touched again by the price and the process starts again. This procedure explains the name of the indicator: the Parabolic SAR follows the price generating a characteristic parabolic shape, when the price touches it, stops and turns ( SAR is the acronym for 'stop and reverse'), giving rise to a new cycle. When the points are below the price, the trend is up, while the points above the price indicate a downward trend.
5. RSI with Volume
This indicator was created by LazyBear from the popular RSI .
The RSI is an oscillator-type indicator used in technical analysis and also created by Welles Wilder that shows the strength of the price by comparing individual movements up or down in successive closing prices.
LazyBear added a volume parameter that makes it more accurate to the market movement.
A good way to use RSI is by considering the 50 'RSI CENTER LINE' centerline. When the oscillator is above, the trend is bullish and when it is below, the trend is bearish .
6. Moving Average Convergence Divergence ( MACD ) and ( MAC-Z )
It was created by Gerald Appel. Subsequently, the histogram was added to anticipate the crossing of MA. Broadly speaking, we can say that the MACD is an oscillator consisting of two moving averages that rotate around the zero line. The MACD line is the difference between a short moving average 'MACD FAST MA LENGTH' and a long moving average 'MACD SLOW MA LENGTH'. It's an indicator that allows us to have a reference on the trend of the asset on which it is operating, thus generating market entry and exit signals.
We can talk about a bull market when the MACD histogram is above the zero line, along with the signal line, while we are talking about a bear market when the MACD histogram is below the zero line.
There is the option of using the MAC-Z indicator created by LazyBear, which according to its author is more effective, by using the parameter VWAP ( volume weighted average price ) 'Z-VWAP LENGTH' together with a standard deviation 'STDEV LENGTH' in its calculation.
7. Volume Condition
Volume indicates the number of participants in this war between bulls and bears, the more volume the more likely the price will move in favor of the trend. A low trading volume indicates a lower number of participants and interest in the instrument in question. Low volumes may reveal weakness behind a price movement.
With this condition, those signals whose volume is less than the volume SMA for a period 'SMA VOLUME LENGTH' multiplied by a factor 'VOLUME FACTOR' are filtered. In addition, it determines the leverage used, the more volume , the more participants, the more probability that the price will move in our favor, that is, we can use more leverage. The leverage in this script is determined by how many times the volume is above the SMA line.
The maximum leverage is 8.
8. Bollinger Bands
This indicator was created by John Bollinger and consists of three bands that are drawn superimposed on the price evolution graph.
The central band is a moving average, normally a simple moving average calculated with 20 periods is used. ('BB LENGTH' Number of periods of the moving average)
The upper band is calculated by adding the value of the simple moving average X times the standard deviation of the moving average. ('BB MULTIPLIER' Number of times the standard deviation of the moving average)
The lower band is calculated by subtracting the simple moving average X times the standard deviation of the moving average.
the band between the upper and lower bands contains, statistically, almost 90% of the possible price variations, which means that any movement of the price outside the bands has special relevance.
In practical terms, Bollinger bands behave as if they were an elastic band so that, if the price touches them, it has a high probability of bouncing.
Sometimes, after the entry order is filled, the price is returned to the opposite side. If price touch the Bollinger band in the same previous conditions, another order is filled in the same direction of the position to improve the average entry price, (% MINIMUM BETTER PRICE ': Minimum price for the re-entry to be executed and that is better than the price of the previous position in a given %) in this way we give the trade a chance that the Take Profit is executed before. The downside is that the position is doubled in size. 'ACTIVATE DIVIDE TP': Divide the size of the TP in half. More probability of the trade closing but less profit.
█ STOP LOSS and RISK MANAGEMENT.
A good risk management is what can make your equity go up or be liquidated.
The % risk is the percentage of our capital that we are willing to lose by operation. This is recommended to be between 1-5%.
% Risk: (% Stop Loss x % Equity per trade x Leverage) / 100
First the strategy is calculated with Stop Loss, then the risk per operation is determined and from there, the amount per operation is calculated and not vice versa.
In this script you can use a normal Stop Loss or one according to the ATR. Also activate the option to trigger it earlier if the risk percentage is reached. '% RISK ALLOWED'
'STOP LOSS CONFIRMED': The Stop Loss is only activated if the closing of the previous bar is in the loss limit condition. It's useful to prevent the SL from triggering when they do a ‘pump’ to sweep Stops and then return the price to the previous state.
█ BACKTEST
The objective of the Backtest is to evaluate the effectiveness of our strategy. A good Backtest is determined by some parameters such as:
- RECOVERY FACTOR: It consists of dividing the 'net profit' by the 'drawdown’. An excellent trading system has a recovery factor of 10 or more; that is, it generates 10 times more net profit than drawdown.
- PROFIT FACTOR: The ‘Profit Factor’ is another popular measure of system performance. It's as simple as dividing what win trades earn by what loser trades lose. If the strategy is profitable then by definition the 'Profit Factor' is going to be greater than 1. Strategies that are not profitable produce profit factors less than one. A good system has a profit factor of 2 or more. The good thing about the ‘Profit Factor’ is that it tells us what we are going to earn for each dollar we lose. A profit factor of 2.5 tells us that for every dollar we lose operating we will earn 2.5.
- SHARPE: (Return system - Return without risk) / Deviation of returns.
When the variations of gains and losses are very high, the deviation is very high and that leads to a very poor ‘Sharpe’ ratio. If the operations are very close to the average (little deviation) the result is a fairly high 'Sharpe' ratio. If a strategy has a 'Sharpe' ratio greater than 1 it is a good strategy. If it has a 'Sharpe' ratio greater than 2, it is excellent. If it has a ‘Sharpe’ ratio less than 1 then we don't know if it is good or bad, we have to look at other parameters.
- MATHEMATICAL EXPECTATION: (% winning trades X average profit) + (% losing trades X average loss).
To earn money with a Trading system, it is not necessary to win all the operations, what is really important is the final result of the operation. A Trading system has to have positive mathematical expectation as is the case with this script: ME = (0.87 x 30.74$) - (0.13 x 56.16$) = (26.74 - 7.30) = 19.44$ > 0
The game of roulette, for example, has negative mathematical expectation for the player, it can have positive winning streaks, but in the long term, if you continue playing you will end up losing, and casinos know this very well.
PARAMETERS
'BACKTEST DAYS': Number of days back of historical data for the calculation of the Backtest.
'ENTRY TYPE': For '% EQUITY' if you have $ 10,000 of capital and select 7.5%, for example, your entry would be $ 750 without leverage. If you select CONTRACTS for the 'BTCUSDT' pair, for example, it would be the amount in 'Bitcoins' and if you select 'CASH' it would be the amount in $ dollars.
'QUANTITY (LEVERAGE 1X)': The amount for an entry with X1 leverage according to the previous section.
'MAXIMUM LEVERAGE': It's the maximum allowed multiplier of the quantity entered in the previous section according to the volume condition.
The settings are for Bitcoin at Binance Futures (BTC: USDTPERP) in 15 minutes.
For other pairs and other timeframes, the settings have to be adjusted again. And within a month, the settings will be different because we all know the market and the trend are changing.
VWMA_withATRstops_strategyThis strategy follows the trend when price is above VWMA indicator. I have modified entry and exit rules to get most out of it.
Instead of entering LONG when price crosses above VWMA, I have used RSI(14) of VWMA . that way it skips the false signals. (some extent)
ENTRY
========
1. VWMA setting is 33
2. When RSIofVwma is above 30 enter Long ( and also checks if price already broke the ATR Stop above line )
Stop Loss and Exits
==================
1. Exit is when price breaks the ATR stop loss
2. ATR setting is set as same VWMA Length and multiplier is 3.5
3. STOP Loss that I mentioned in the settings is being used to calculate the how many units can be purchased based on risk of capital value.
Note: There is NO hard stop loss. having above ATR stop loss works as Trailing stop loss
Warning

Fibonacci Bollinger Bands Strategy [QuantNomad]This strategy is modified Stanard Bollinger Bands Strategy. Instead of using standard deviation, I use a metric of how big is the range for the last X bars. Also, I’m using Fibonacci levels as multipliers for BB.
In this strategy you have a choice of 3 different Trailing Stop Loss types:
Standard % – standard percent based TSL
Fibonacci Level – close your position on another Fibonacci level or basis line of BB.
Parabolic SAR – Parabolic SAR adapted as trailing stop loss.
For Standard % and Parabolic SAR, you can use the “TSL Offset” parameter to set an initial offset for trailing stop loss.
Parameters
BB Length – Bolinger Bands Length
Fib Entry Level – Entry BB Multiplier level. Can be one of Fibonacci levels: 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.000
Trailing SL Type – Type of Trailing Stop Loss used to close positions. Can be one of 3 types: “Standard %”, “Fibonacci Level”, “Parabolic SAR”
TSL Offset (%) – Initial offset for TSL. Applicable to “Standard %” and “Parabolic SAR”
TSL Fib Level – Fibonacci level used for “Fibonacci level” type of TSL
TSL PSAR Start / Increment / Maximum – parameters for PSAR type of TSL.
Strategy side – you can choose the side of the strategy. You can require strategy to go only Long, Short to Both sides.
From/To Day/Month/Year – you can use these parameters to set backtesting range to check the performance of your strategy on a specific range

MACD BF 🚀Customised MACD strategy with dynamic stop losses based on ATR.
Signals are generated when the delta value becomes positive or negative (when it crosses the zero line)
Stop losses are printed on the chart in yellow and orange. They are based on recent average True Range to allow for volatility.
INSTRUCTIONS
Green background = long
Red background = short
Yellow dotted line = stop loss placement for long
Orange dotted line = stop loss placement for short
White background = you have been stopped out, wait patiently for the next signal
Center of Gravity BF 🚀Thanks to HPotter for the code I based this strategy on.
Center of Gravity calculation is based here on a linear regression function using the least squares method.
We use this to calculate a channel consisting of 2 lines, green and red on the chart
This strategy employs a dynamic stop loss function that measures stop loss placement based on recent ATR.
How signals are generated:
Price closes above green line = Go Long
Price closes below red line = Go Short
Yellow dotted line = stop loss based on long entry
Orange dotted line = stop loss based on short entry
INSTRUCTIONS
Green background = Go Long, put your stop loss at the yellow dotted line
Red background = Go Short, put your stop loss at the orange dotted line
NB: The stop losses printed on the chart are calculated from the point of entry on a trade, if you make a different entry to what is indicated, the corresponding stop loss will be different to what the indicator displays.
Hazel nut BB Strategy, volume base- lite versionHazel nut BB Strategy, volume base — lite version
Having knowledge and information in financial markets is only useful when a trader operates with a well-defined trading strategy. Trading strategies assist in capital management, profit-taking, and reducing potential losses.
This strategy is built upon the core principle of supply and demand dynamics. Alongside this foundation, one of the widely used technical tools — the Bollinger Bands — is employed to structure a framework for profit management and risk control.
In this strategy, the interaction of these tools is explained in detail. A key point to note is that for calculating buy and sell volumes, a lower timeframe function is used. When applied with a tick-level resolution, this provides the most precise measurement of buyer/seller flows. However, this comes with a limitation of reduced historical depth. Users should be aware of this trade-off: if precise tick-level data is required, shorter timeframes should be considered to extend historical coverage .
The strategy offers multiple configuration options. Nevertheless, it should be treated strictly as a supportive tool rather than a standalone trading system. Decisions must integrate personal analysis and other instruments. For example, in highly volatile assets with narrow ranges, it is recommended to adjust profit-taking and stop-loss percentages to smaller values.
◉ Volume Settings
• Buyer and seller volume (up/down volume) are requested from a lower timeframe, with an option to override the automatic resolution.
• A global lookback period is applied to calculate moving averages and cumulative sums of buy/sell/delta volumes.
• Ratios of buyers/sellers to total volume are derived both on the current bar and across the lookback window.
◉ Bollinger Band
• Bands are computed using configurable moving averages (SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, VWMA).
• Inputs allow control of length, standard deviation multiplier, and offset.
• The basis, upper, and lower bands are plotted, with a shaded background between them.
◉ Progress & Proximity
• Relative position of the price to the Bollinger basis is expressed as percentages (qPlus/qMinus).
• “Near band” conditions are triggered when price progress toward the upper or lower band exceeds a user-defined threshold (%).
• A signed score (sScore) represents how far the close has moved above or below the basis relative to band width.
◉ Info Table
• Optional compact table summarizing:
• - Upper/lower band margins
• - Buyer/seller volumes with moving averages
• - Delta and cumulative delta
• - Buyer/seller ratios per bar and across the window
• - Money flow values (buy/sell/delta × price) for bar-level and summed periods
• The table is neutral-colored and resizable for different chart layouts.
◉ Zone Event Gate
• Tracks entry into and exit from “near band” zones.
• Arming logic: a side is armed when price enters a band proximity zone.
• Trigger logic: on exit, a trade event is generated if cumulative buyer or seller volume dominates over a configurable window.
◉ Trading Logic
• Orders are placed only on zone-exit events, conditional on volume dominance.
• Position sizing is defined as a fixed percentage of strategy equity.
• Long entries occur when leaving the lower zone with buyer dominance; short entries occur when leaving the upper zone with seller dominance.
◉ Exit Rules
• Open positions are managed by a strict priority sequence:
• 1. Stop-loss (% of entry price)
• 2. Take-profit (% of entry price)
• 3. Opposite-side event (zone exit with dominance in the other direction)
• Stop-loss and take-profit levels are configurable
◉ Notes
• This lite version is intended to demonstrate the interaction of Bollinger Bands and volume-based dominance logic.
• It provides a framework to observe how price reacts at band boundaries under varying buy/sell pressure, and how zone exits can be systematically converted into entry/exit signals.
When configuring this strategy, it is essential to carefully review the settings within the Strategy Tester. Ensure that the chosen parameters and historical data options are correctly aligned with the intended use. Accurate back testing depends on applying proper configurations for historical reference.

EMA inFusion Pro - Multiple SourcesEMA Fusion Pro: Dynamic Trend & Momentum Strategy with Three Exit Modes
EMA Fusion Pro is a highly customizable, multi-exit trend-following strategy designed for traders who value both precision and flexibility. By leveraging exponential moving averages (EMA), average directional index (ADX), and volume analysis, this strategy aims to capture trending market moves while offering three distinct exit modes for optimal risk management across varying market conditions.
Strategy Overview
This strategy systematically identifies potential entry points using a moving average crossover with highly configurable data sources (including price, volume, rate of change, or their Heikin Ashi versions) and filters signal quality with ADX trend strength and volume spikes. Each trade is managed with one of three advanced exit methodologies—reverse signal, ATR-based stop/take profit, or fixed percentage—giving you the control to adapt your risk profile to different market regimes.
Key Features
Customizable EMA Source: Calculate the core trend-filtering EMA from price (default), volume, rate of change, or their Heikin Ashi counterparts for unique market perspectives.
Trend Filter with ADX: Confirm entries only when the trend is strong, as measured by the user-adjustable ADX threshold.
Volume Spike Confirmation: Optional filter to only take trades with above-average volume activity, reducing false signals.
Three Exit Modes:
Reverse Signal: Exit trades when a new, opposite entry signal occurs.
ATR-Based Stop/Take Profit: Dynamic risk management using multiples of the average true range (ATR) for both take profit and stop loss.
Percent-Based Stop/Take Profit: Fixed-percentage risk management with user-defined thresholds.
Visual Annotations: Signal markers, EMA line color-coded by source, trend background coloring, and optional ATR/percent-based TP/SL levels.
Info Panel: Real-time display of all core indicators, current trading mode, exit parameters, and position status for quick oversight.
How It Works
Entry Logic: A crossover signal (above/below the EMA) triggers a new entry, but only if both ADX trend strength and (optionally) volume spike conditions are met.
Exit Logic: Three selectable modes allow you to exit trades on reverse signals, at a dynamic ATR-based profit or loss, or at a fixed percentage gain/loss.
Flexible Data Analysis: The EMA source can be chosen from six options—standard price, volume, rate of change, or their Heikin Ashi variants—allowing experimentation with different market dimensions.
Risk Management: All exits are precisely controlled, either by the next opposing signal, by volatility-adjusted levels, or by fixed risk/reward ratios.
Backtest & Optimization: The strategy is fully backtestable within TradingView’s Strategy Tester, with adjustable parameters for optimization.
Customization & Usage
Indicator Source: Select your preferred data type for EMA calculation, opening the door to creative strategy variations (e.g., volume momentum, pure price trend, rate of change divergence).
Filter Toggles: Enable/disable ADX and volume filters as desired—useful for different market environments.
Exit Mode Selection: Switch between reverse, ATR, or percent-based exits with a single parameter—ideal for adapting to ranging vs. trending markets.
Visual Clarity: The EMA line color reflects its underlying source, and the info panel summarizes all critical values for easy monitoring.
Who Should Use This Strategy?
Trend Followers seeking to ride strong moves with multiple exit options.
Experienced Traders who want to experiment with different data types (volume, momentum, Heikin Ashi) for trend analysis.
Algorithmic Traders looking for a robust, flexible base to build upon with their own ideas.
Getting Started
Apply the script to your chart and review default settings.
Customize parameters—EMA length, ADX threshold, volume settings, exit type—as desired.
Backtest on multiple instruments and timeframes to evaluate performance.
Optimize filters, exit rules, and risk parameters for your preferred trading style.
Monitor with the real-time info panel and trade alerts.

MACD StrategyOverview
The "MACD Strategy" is a straightforward trading strategy tested for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe, leveraging the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator to identify momentum-based buy and sell opportunities. Developed with input from expert trading analyst insights, this strategy combines technical precision with risk management, making it suitable for traders of all levels on platforms like TradingView. It focuses on capturing trend reversals and momentum shifts, with clear visual cues and automated alerts for seamless integration with trading bots (e.g., Bitget webhooks).
#### How It Works
This strategy uses the MACD indicator to generate trading signals based on momentum and trend direction:
- **Buy Signal**: Triggered when the MACD line crosses above the signal line, and the MACD histogram turns positive (above zero). This suggests increasing bullish momentum.
- **Sell Signal**: Triggered when the MACD line crosses below the signal line, and the MACD histogram turns negative (below zero), indicating growing bearish momentum.
Once a signal is detected, the strategy opens a position (long for buy, short for sell) with a position size calculated based on your risk tolerance. It includes a stop-loss to limit losses and a take-profit to lock in gains, both dynamically adjusted using the Average True Range (ATR) for adaptability to market volatility.
#### Key Features
- **MACD-Based Signals**: Relies solely on MACD for entry points, plotted in a separate pane for clear momentum analysis.
- **Risk Management**: Automatically calculates position size based on a percentage of your account balance and sets stop-loss and take-profit levels using ATR multipliers and a risk:reward ratio.
- **Visual Feedback**: Plots entry, stop-loss, and take-profit lines on the chart with labeled markers for easy tracking.
- **Alerts**: Includes Bitget webhook-compatible alerts for automated trading, notifying you of buy and sell signals in real-time.
#### Input Parameters
- **Account Balance**: Default 10000 – Set your initial trading capital to determine position sizing.
- **MACD Fast Length**: Default 12 – The short-term EMA period for MACD sensitivity.
- **MACD Slow Length**: Default 26 – The long-term EMA period for MACD calculation.
- **MACD Signal Length**: Default 9 – The smoothing period for the signal line.
- **Risk Per Trade (%)**: Default 3.0 – The percentage of your account balance risked per trade (e.g., 3% of 10000 = 300).
- **Risk:Reward Ratio**: Default 3.0 – The ratio of potential profit to risk (e.g., 3:1 means risking 1 to gain 3).
- **SL Multiplier**: Default 1.0 – Multiplies ATR to set the stop-loss distance (e.g., 1.0 x ATR).
- **TP Multiplier**: Default 3.0 – Multiplies ATR to set the take-profit distance, adjusted by the risk:reward ratio.
- **Line Length (bars)**: Default 25 – Duration in bars for displaying trade lines on the chart.
- **Label Position**: Default 'left' – Position of text labels (left or right) relative to trade lines.
- **ATR Period**: Default 14 – The number of periods for calculating ATR to measure volatility.
#### How to Use
1. **Add to Chart**: Load the "MACD Strategy" as a strategy and the "MACD Indicator" as a separate indicator on your TradingView chart (recommended for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe).
2. **Customize Settings**: Adjust the input parameters based on your risk tolerance and market conditions. For BTCUSDT Futures, consider reducing `Risk Per Trade (%)` during high volatility (e.g., 1%) or increasing `SL Multiplier` for wider stops.
3. **Visual Analysis**: Watch the main chart for trade entry lines (green for buy, red for sell), stop-loss (red), and take-profit (green) lines with labels. Use the MACD pane below to confirm momentum shifts.
4. **Set Alerts**: Create alerts in TradingView for "Buy Signal" and "Sell Signal" to automate trades via Bitget webhooks.
5. **Backtest and Optimize**: Test the strategy on historical BTCUSDT Futures 1-minute data to fine-tune parameters. The short timeframe requires quick execution, so monitor closely for slippage or latency.
#### Tips for Success
- **Market Conditions**: This strategy performs best in trending markets on the 1-minute timeframe. Avoid choppy conditions where MACD crossovers may produce false signals.
- **Risk Management**: Start with the default 3% risk per trade and adjust downward (e.g., 1%) during volatile periods like BTCUSDT news events. The 3:1 risk:reward ratio targets consistent profitability.
- **Timeframe**: Optimized for 1-minute charts; switch to 5-minute or 15-minute for less noise if needed.
- **Confirmation**: Cross-check MACD signals with price action or support/resistance levels for higher accuracy on BTCUSDT Futures.
#### Limitations
- This strategy relies solely on MACD, so it may lag in fast-moving or sideways markets. Consider adding a secondary filter (e.g., RSI) if needed.
- Stop-loss and take-profit are ATR-based and may need adjustment for BTCUSDT Futures’ high volatility, especially during leverage trading.
#### Conclusion
The "MACD Strategy" offers a simple yet effective way to trade momentum shifts using the MACD indicator, tested for BTCUSDT Futures on the 1-minute timeframe, with robust risk management and visual tools. Whether you’re scalping crypto futures or exploring short-term trends, this strategy provides a solid foundation for automated or manual trading.

SuperTrend Strategy with Trend-Based Exits🟩 SuperTrend Strategy with Trend-Based Exits
This is a fully automated trend-following strategy based on the popular SuperTrend indicator, enhanced with a position sizing algorithm tied to stop-loss distance and dynamic entry/exit rules. The strategy is designed for futures trading with an emphasis on sustainable risk, realistic backtesting, and transparent logic.
🧠 Concept and Methodology
The strategy uses the SuperTrend indicator, which is derived from ATR (Average True Range) and is widely used to capture medium- to long-term market trends.
Key features:
✅ Entries are triggered only when the SuperTrend direction changes (trend reversal).
✅ Exits are performed using a dynamic stop-loss placed at the SuperTrend line.
✅ Position size is automatically calculated based on the trader’s fixed dollar risk per trade and the current distance to the stop-loss.
✅ Rounding logic is included to ensure quantity is valid for the exchange’s lot size.
This strategy does not use any take-profit or classic trailing stop — the position is only closed when the trend reverses or the stop is hit by touching the SuperTrend line.
⚙️ Default Parameters
ATR Length: 300
Factor: 7.5
Risk per trade: $90 (3% of the default $3,000 capital)
Lot step: 10
Commission: 0.05%
These default parameters are not universal. They were optimized specifically for STXUSDT swap at 15M timeframe at Bybit and may not produce viable results on other pairs and timeframes.
Users are encouraged to customize the settings according to specific asset’s volatility, timeframe and other characteristics.
❗ These default settings yield meaningful backtesting results on STXUSDT with a reasonable number of trades (105+) over 7-month period. If applied to other assets, results may vary significantly.
📈 Position Sizing Logic
The strategy uses a dynamic position sizing formula:
Pine Script®
position_size = floor((risk_per_trade / stop_loss_distance) / lot_step) * lot_step
This ensures the trader always risks a fixed dollar amount per trade and never exceeds a sustainable equity exposure (recommended 2% or less).
✅ Realism in Backtesting
To ensure realistic and non-misleading backtest results, this strategy includes:
— Slippage and commission settings matching average exchange conditions (commission = 0.05%, slippage 5 ticks).
— Position sizing based on stop-loss distance (not fixed contract quantity).*
— A fixed risk-per-trade model that adheres to responsible capital management principles.
— This is in compliance with TradingView's Script publishing rules and House Rules.
📌 How to Use
Apply the strategy to a clean chart (preferably 15M for STXUSDT by default).
If using another asset, adjust:
- ATR Length
- Factor
- Risk per trade
- Qty step (lot precision for the symbol)
Avoid using with other indicators unless you understand their purpose.
Use the Strategy Tester to evaluate performance and optimize parameters.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This is not financial advice. Always perform forward testing and assess risk before deploying any strategy on live capital. The strategy is designed for educational and experimental use.
