Background
Backtesting of technical indicators and strategies is the most common way to understand a quantitative strategy. However, the complicated configuration and adaptation work of backtesting many quantitative tools makes many traders who do not understand the code daunted. Moreover, although I have written a lot of strategies, I am still not very satisfied with the backtest configuration and writing efficiency. Therefore, I have been thinking about how to build a backtesting framework that can quickly and easily evaluate the backtesting performance of any indicator with a "long/short entry" indicator, that is, a "simple backtesting tool for dummies". The performance requirements should be stable, and the operation should be simple and convenient. It is best to "copy", "paste", and "a few mouse clicks" to complete the quick backtest and evaluation of a new indicator.
Luckily, I recently realized that TradingView provides an "Indicator on Indicator" feature, which is the perfect foundation for doing "hot swap" backtesting. My basic idea is to use a two-layer design. The first layer is the technical indicator signal source that needs to be embedded, which is only used to provide buy and sell signals of custom strategies; the second layer is the trading system, which is used to receive the output signals of the first layer, and filter the signals according to the agreed specifications. , Take Profit, Stop Loss, draw buy and sell signals and cost lines, define and send custom buy and sell alert messages to mobile phones, social software or trading interfaces. In general, this two-layer design is a flexible combination of "death and alive", which can meet the needs of most traders to quickly evaluate the performance of a certain technical indicator. The first layer here is flexible. Users can insert their own strategy codes according to my template, and they can draw buy and sell signals and output them to the second layer. The second layer is fixed, and the overall framework is solidified to ensure the stability and unity of the trading system. It is convenient to compare different or similar strategies under the same conditions. Finally, all trading signals are drawn on the chart, and the output strategy returns. test report.
The main function:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the script provides a template for personalized strategy input, and the signal and definition interfaces ensure full compatibility with the second layer. Backtesting is performed stably in the backtesting framework of the layer. The first layer of this script is also relatively simple: enter your script in the highlighted custom script area, and after ensuring the final buy and sell signals long = bool condition, short = bool condition, the design of the first layer is considered complete. Input it into the PINE script editor of TradingView, save it and add it to the chart, you can see the pulse sequence in yellow (buy) and purple (sell) on the sub-picture, corresponding to the main picture, you can subjectively judge that the quality of the trading point of the strategy is good Bad.
The second layer: "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". This script is the standardized trading system strategy execution and alarm, used to generate the final report of the strategy backtest and some key indicators that I have customized that I find useful, such as: winning rate , Odds, Winning Surface, Kelly Ratio, Take Profit and Stop Loss Thresholds, Trading Frequency, etc. are evaluated according to the Kelly formula. To use the second layer, first load it into the TrainingView chart, no markers will appear on the chart, since you have not specified any strategy source signals, click on the gear-shaped setting next to the "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans BTFW" header button, you can open the backtest settings, the first item is to select your custom strategy source. Because we have added the strategy source to the chart in the previous step, you can easily find an option "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source: Signal" at the bottom of the list, this is the strategy source input we need, select and confirm , you can see various markers on the main graph, and quickly generate a backtesting profit graph and a list of backtesting reports. You can generate files and download the backtesting reports locally. You can also click the gear on the backtest chart interface to customize some conditions of the backtest, including: initial capital amount, currency type, percentage of each order placed, amount of pyramid additions, commission fees, slippage, etc. configuration. Note: The configuration in the interface dialog overrides the same configuration implemented by the code in the backtest script.
How to output charts:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the output of this script is the pulse value of yellow and purple, yellow +1 means buy, purple -1 means sell.
The second layer: PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". The output of this script is a bit complicated. After all, it is the entire trading system with a lot of information:
1. Blue and red arrows. The blue upward arrow indicates long position, the red downward arrow indicates short position, and the horizontal bar at the end of the purple arrow indicates take profit or stop loss exit.
2. Red and green lines. This is the holding cost line of the strategy, green represents the cost of holding a long position, and red represents the cost of holding a short position. The cost line is a continuous solid line and the price action is relatively close.
3. Green and yellow long take profit and stop loss area and green and yellow long take profit and stop loss fork. Once a long position is held, there is a conditional order for take profit and stop loss. The green horizontal line is the long take profit ratio line, and the yellow is the long stop loss ratio line; the green cross indicates the long take profit price, and the yellow cross indicates the long position. Stop loss price. It's worth noting that the prongs and wires don't necessarily go together. Because of the optimization of the algorithm, for a strong market, the take profit will occur after breaking the take profit line, and the profit will not be taken until the price falls.
4. The purple and red short take profit and stop loss area and the purple red short stop loss fork. Once a short position is held, there will be a take profit and stop loss conditional order, the red is the short take profit ratio line, and the purple is the short stop loss ratio line; the red cross indicates the short take profit price, and the purple cross indicates the short stop loss price.
5. In addition to the above signs, there are also text and numbers indicating the profit and loss values of long and short positions. "L" means long; "S" means short; "XL" means close long; "XS" means close short.
TradingView Strategy Tester Panel:
The overview graph is an intuitive graph that plots the blue (gain) and red (loss) curves of all backtest periods together, and notes: the absolute value and percentage of net profit, the number of all closed positions, the winning percentage, the profit factor, The maximum trading loss, the absolute value and ratio of the average trading profit and loss, and the average number of K-lines held in all trades.
Another is the performance summary. This is to display all long and short statistical indicators of backtesting in the form of a list, such as: net profit, gross profit, Sharpe ratio, maximum position, commission, times of profit and loss, etc.
Finally, the transaction list is a table indexed by the transaction serial number, showing the signal direction, date and time, price, profit and loss, accumulated profit and loss, maximum transaction profit, transaction loss and other values.
Remarks
Finally, I will explain that this is just the beginning of this model. I will continue to optimize the trading system of the second layer. Various optimization feedback and suggestions are welcome. For valuable feedback, I am willing to provide some L4/L5 technical indicators as rewards for free subscription rights.

Input it into the PINE script editor of TradingView, save it and add it to the chart, you can see the pulse sequence in yellow (buy) and purple (sell) on the sub-picture, corresponding to the main picture, you can subjectively judge that the quality of the trading point of the strategy is good Bad.
The second layer: "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". This script is the standardized trading system strategy execution and alarm, used to generate the final report of the strategy backtest and some key indicators that I have customized that I find useful, such as: winning rate , Odds, Winning Surface, Kelly Ratio, Take Profit and Stop Loss Thresholds, Trading Frequency, etc. are evaluated according to the Kelly formula. To use the second layer, first load it into the TrainingView chart, no markers will appear on the chart, since you have not specified any strategy source signals, click on the gear-shaped setting next to the "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans BTFW" header button, you can open the backtest settings, the first item is to select your custom strategy source. Because we have added the strategy source to the chart in the previous step, you can easily find an option "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source: Signal" at the bottom of the list, this is the strategy source input we need, select and confirm , you can see various markers on the main graph, and quickly generate a backtesting profit graph and a list of backtesting reports. You can generate files and download the backtesting reports locally. You can also click the gear on the backtest chart interface to customize some conditions of the backtest, including: initial capital amount, currency type, percentage of each order placed, amount of pyramid additions, commission fees, slippage, etc. configuration. Note: The configuration in the interface dialog overrides the same configuration implemented by the code in the backtest script.
How to output charts:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the output of this script is the pulse value of yellow and purple, yellow +1 means buy, purple -1 means sell.
The second layer: PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework". The output of this script is a bit complicated. After all, it is the entire trading system with a lot of information:
1. Blue and red arrows. The blue upward arrow indicates long position, the red downward arrow indicates short position, and the horizontal bar at the end of the purple arrow indicates take profit or stop loss exit.
2. Red and green lines. This is the holding cost line of the strategy, green represents the cost of holding a long position, and red represents the cost of holding a short position. The cost line is a continuous solid line and the price action is relatively close.
3. Green and yellow long take profit and stop loss area and green and yellow long take profit and stop loss fork. Once a long position is held, there is a conditional order for take profit and stop loss. The green horizontal line is the long take profit ratio line, and the yellow is the long stop loss ratio line; the green cross indicates the long take profit price, and the yellow cross indicates the long position. Stop loss price. It's worth noting that the prongs and wires don't necessarily go together. Because of the optimization of the algorithm, for a strong market, the take profit will occur after breaking the take profit line, and the profit will not be taken until the price falls.
4. The purple and red short take profit and stop loss area and the purple red short stop loss fork. Once a short position is held, there will be a take profit and stop loss conditional order, the red is the short take profit ratio line, and the purple is the short stop loss ratio line; the red cross indicates the short take profit price, and the purple cross indicates the short stop loss price.
5. In addition to the above signs, there are also text and numbers indicating the profit and loss values of long and short positions. "L" means long; "S" means short; "XL" means close long; "XS" means close short.
TradingView Strategy Tester Panel:
The overview graph is an intuitive graph that plots the blue (gain) and red (loss) curves of all backtest periods together, and notes: the absolute value and percentage of net profit, the number of all closed positions, the winning percentage, the profit factor, The maximum trading loss, the absolute value and ratio of the average trading profit and loss, and the average number of K-lines held in all trades.
Another is the performance summary. This is to display all long and short statistical indicators of backtesting in the form of a list, such as: net profit, gross profit, Sharpe ratio, maximum position, commission, times of profit and loss, etc.
Finally, the transaction list is a table indexed by the transaction serial number, showing the signal direction, date and time, price, profit and loss, accumulated profit and loss, maximum transaction profit, transaction loss and other values.
Remarks
Finally, I will explain that this is just the beginning of this model. I will continue to optimize the trading system of the second layer. Various optimization feedback and suggestions are welcome. For valuable feedback, I am willing to provide some L4/L5 technical indicators as rewards for free subscription rights.
[Sextan] Your Indicator SourceLevel: 1
NOTE: This is ONLY an EXAMPLE on HOW-TO produce a customized "{Sextan} PINEv4 Sextans Backtest Framework" intput signal source, you can define your own indicator in the highlighted area in compliance with the uniform format, which guarantee when you use "Indicator on Indicator" function, it would not produce any error.
I use two simple moving average crossings to produce long and short entry signal with SMA3 and SMA8 in the example.
Background
Backtesting of technical indicators and strategies is the most common way to understand a quantitative strategy. However, the complicated configuration and adaptation work of backtesting many quantitative tools makes many traders who do not understand the code daunted. Moreover, although I have written a lot of strategies, I am still not very satisfied with the backtest configuration and writing efficiency. Therefore, I have been thinking about how to build a backtesting framework that can quickly and easily evaluate the backtesting performance of any indicator with a "long/short entry" indicator, that is, a "simple backtesting tool for dummies". The performance requirements should be stable, and the operation should be simple and convenient. It is best to "copy", "paste", and "a few mouse clicks" to complete the quick backtest and evaluation of a new indicator.
Luckily, I recently realized that TradingView provides an "Indicator on Indicator" feature, which is the perfect foundation for doing "hot swap" backtesting. My basic idea is to use a two-layer design. The first layer is the technical indicator signal source that needs to be embedded, which is only used to provide buy and sell signals of custom strategies; the second layer is the trading system, which is used to receive the output signals of the first layer, and filter the signals according to the agreed specifications. , Take Profit, Stop Loss, draw buy and sell signals and cost lines, define and send custom buy and sell alert messages to mobile phones, social software or trading interfaces. In general, this two-layer design is a flexible combination of "death and alive", which can meet the needs of most traders to quickly evaluate the performance of a certain technical indicator. The first layer here is flexible. Users can insert their own strategy codes according to my template, and they can draw buy and sell signals and output them to the second layer. The second layer is fixed, and the overall framework is solidified to ensure the stability and unity of the trading system. It is convenient to compare different or similar strategies under the same conditions. Finally, all trading signals are drawn on the chart, and the output strategy returns. test report.
The main function:
The first layer: "{Sextan} Your Indicator Source", the script provides a template for personalized strategy input, and the signal and definition interfaces ensure full compatibility with the second layer. Backtesting is performed stably in the backtesting framework of the layer. The first layer of this script is also relatively simple: enter your script in the highlighted custom script area, and after ensuring the final buy and sell signals long = bool condition, short = bool condition, the design of the first layer is considered complete.

ADX and DI-BolarinwaThe Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) is a technical indicator that measures the strength of a trend. While the indicator itself doesn’t give an insight into the direction of the trend, the Directional Movement lines can be used to determine if the market moves up or down.
The ADX can return a value between 0 and 100. The usual threshold for a market to be considered as trending by the ADX is a value of 25 or above. Values between 25 and 50 signal a trending market, between 50 and 75 very strong trends and between 75 and 100 extremely strong trends.
The ADX Crossover Trading Strategy
A popular trading strategy to trade on the ADX is based on a crossover of the directional movement lines (+DI and -DI) which was developed directly by the indicator’s creator Mr. Wilder.
The trading strategy states that the first condition for a trade setup is that the ADX has a value of 25 or above, which indicates a trending market.
A buy order is triggered when +DI crosses above -DI, i.e. the underlying trend is an uptrend, while a sell signal is triggered when -DI crosses above +DI, i.e. the underlying trend is a downtrend.
Stop-losses are placed at the low of the current trading day, and the trade setup remains valid even if the directional movement lines cross again after the trade signal. Only a break of the current trading day’s low would lead to the trade setup becoming invalid.
If the ADX remains above 25 or rises even higher, indicating that the strength of the underlying trend increases, then traders can put a trailing stop on the trade.
The following chart shows an example of the ADX crossover strategy on the daily EUR/USD pair.
ADX Crossover Strategy
The first cross of -DI above +DI didn’t send a sell signal because the ADX was below 25. The sell signal came with ADX crossing above 25, while the -DI was still above +DI. On the chart, the SL was put just above the day’s high.
The second signal was a buy signal, with the cross of +DI above -DI and the ADX above 25, signaling a strong trend. The stop-loss is placed just below the day’s low, indicated by the dotted line on the chart.
Finally, the third sell signal came with the cross of -DI above -DI and the ADX above 25. Again, the stop-loss is placed just above the day’s high.
While the ADX crossover strategy can also be applied to lower timeframes, you need to be aware that the increased market noise may create more false signals than on the higher timeframes. The following chart is a 5-minute chart with buy and sell signals based on the crossover strategy. Notice that we placed the stop-losses slightly different than in the previous example. In this case, stop-losses have been placed at the recent highs and lows of the price.
ADX Trading Graph
The first buy signal came with +DI crossing above -DI and ADX above 25. In the middle of the chart, you can notice the crosses of the directional movement lines (+DI and -DI) while the ADX was below 25. As ADX needs to be above 25, those crosses are not used as entry triggers based on the ADX crossover strategy.
After that we received a sell signal with -DI crossing above +DI and ADX above 25, which is followed by a buy signal when +DI crossed above -DI.
Using ADX for Trade Confirmations
Beside the ADX crossover strategy which is based on the crosses of +DI and -DI, traders can also use the ADX indicator to supplement other trading strategies. For example, you might want to use a trend-following strategy when ADX shows a strong trend (value above 25), or a trading strategy that is more suited for ranging markets in times when the ADX shows an absence of trends (value below 25).
Before You Trade
The Average Directional Movement Index is a versatile technical indicator that can be used as a stand-alone trading strategy, or in combination with other trading strategies. The ADX crossover strategy is based on the crossover of the directional movement lines (+DI and -DI) and an ADX reading of above 25. While it can be used across all timeframes, it usually returns the best results on higher ones.
As the ADX measures the strength of the underlying trend, trend-following traders can use it to filter flat and ranging markets and avoid trading during those times.
TradePro's Trading Idea Cipher Divergence EMA Pb StrategyHere I present you on of Trade Pro's Trading Idea: Cipher B+ Divergence EMA Pullback Strategy.
Optimized the crypto pairBTC/USDT in the 30 minute chart.
There is the possibility to switch between short and long positions.
You can choose between 2 different take profit/stop loss types: The Lowest Low/ Highest High Stop Loss/ Take Profit and the ATR Take Profit/ Stop Loss.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How does the strategy work?
ENTRY
Long
The price must be above the 200 EMA .
The price needs to make a pullback into the 50 EMA .
Right after that, the Cipher B indicator must give a buy signal, it must be below the zero line and the Money Flow cloud must be green.
Short
Contrary to the premise of long positions.
EXIT
Lowest Low/ Highest High Exit
The Lowest Low (long) / highest high (short) serves as the stop loss. The TP is formed on the basis of a factor.
(Long for example: *Lowest Low* multiplied by *Profitfactor* = TP).
ATR Exit
The value of ATR at the time of buying is multiplied by the value entered in "Profit factor ATR" and "Stop factor ATR". As soon as the price reaches this value, it is closed.
Important
The script must be optimized for each coin or currency pair. However, only the values for the profit factor, the stop loss and Lowest Low / Highest High are relevant.
Also, by changing the Chanel Length and the Chanel Average, you can create strong profit changes.
The results of the strategy are without commissions and leverage.
If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know in the comments.
If you need more information about the strategy and want to know exactly how to apply it, check out my profile. There I have created a tutorial for the function of the script.
Long Wick TrialI've created this as a confirmation indicator to help know when market conditions are favorable to enter a trade. It measures volume, volatility, and ATR. It is not intended to tell you when to enter/exit the market, but use it with another indicator such as the mirror macd to filter out many losses and avoid entering the market during low volume or excessive volatility that may trip your stop loss.
Green = Favorable Market conditions
Yellow = Enter with caution, the market is moving sideways but is slightly trending
Orange = Enter with caution, the market is trending but extremely volatile and may trip stop loss early
Black = Shouldn't enter market here, market is moving sideways and volume is also low.
Red and Green Ignored Bar by Oliver VelezOn this occasion I present a script that detects Ignored Red Candles and Ignored Green Candles, basically it is a Price Action event that indicates a possible continuation of the current trend and gives the opportunity to climb it with a Very tight risk, before delving into detail I would like to leave this note:
Note: the detection of this event does not guarantee that the signal will be good, the trader must have the ability to determine its quality based on aspects such as trend, maturity, support / resistance levels, expansion / contraction of the market, risk / benefit, etc, if you do not have knowledge about this you should not use this indicator since using it without a robust trading plan and experience could cause you to partially or totally lose your money, if this is your case you should train before If you try to extract money from the market, this script was created to be another tool in your trading plan in order to configure the rules at your discretion, execute them consistently and have AUTOMATIC ALERTS when the event occurs, which is where I find more value because you can have many instruments waiting for the event to be generated, in the time frame you want and without having to observe the mer When the alert is generated, the Trader should evaluate the quality of the alert and define whether or not to execute it (higher timeframes, they can give you more time to execute the operation correctly).
Let's continue….
This event was created by Oliver Velez recognized trader / mentor of price action, the event has a very interesting particularity since it allows to take a position with a very limited risk in trend movements, this achieves favorable operations of good ratio and small losses when taking An adjusted risk, if the trade works, a good ratio is quickly achieved and we agree with a key point in the “Keep small losses and big profits” trading, this makes it easier to have a positive mathematical hope when your level of Success is not very high, so leave you in the field of profitability.
THE EVENT:
The event has a bullish configuration (Ignored Red Candle) and a bearish configuration (Ignored Green Candle), below I detail the “Hard” rules (later I explain why “Hard”):
1- Last 3 bars have to be GREEN-RED-GREEN (possible bullish configuration) or RED-GREEN-RED (possible bearish configuration), the first bar is called Control Bar, the second is called Ignored Bar and the third Signal Bar as shown in the following image:
2- Be in a trend determined by simple moving averages (Slow of 20 periods and Fast of 8 periods), as a general rule you can take the direction of MA20 but the Trader has to determine if there is a trend movement or not.
3- Control bar of good range, little tail and with a body greater than 55%.
4- Ignored bar preferably narrow range, little tail and that is located in the upper 1/3 of the control bar.
5- Signal bar cannot override the minimum of the ignored bar.
6- Activation / Confirmation of event by means of signal bar in overcoming the body of the ignored bar.
Some examples of ignored bars (with “Hard” and “Flexible” rules):
Features and configuration of the indicator:
To access the indicator settings, press the wheel next to the indicator name VVI_VRI "Configuration options".
- Operation mode (Filtering Type):
• Filtering Complete: all filters activated according to the configuration below.
• Without Filtering: all filters deactivated, all VRI / VVI are displayed without any selection criteria.
• Trend Filter only: shows only VRI / VVI that are in accordance with what is set in “Trend Settings”
- Configuration Moving Averages:

• Source: possibility to choose the type of source, open, close, high, low, hl2 hlc3, ohlc4.
• Reaction: this configuration affects the color change before a change of direction, 1 being an immediate reaction and higher values, a more delayed reaction obtaining les false "changes of direction", a value of 3 filters the direction quite well.
- Trend Configuration
• Uptrend Condition P / VRI: possibility to select any of these conditions:
o Bullish MA direction
o Quick bullish MA direction
o Slow and fast bullish MA direction
o Price higher than slow MA
o Price higher than fast MA

- Configuration bar ignored
• Above X% of the control bar: possibility to select above what percentage of the control bar the ignored bar must be located.
• Paint ignored bar: when selected, paint the ignored bar.
- Signal bar configuration
• You cannot override the minimum of the ignored bar: when selected, the condition is added that the signal bar cannot override the minimum of the ignored bar.
• Paint signal bar: when selected, paint the signal bar.
• See arrow: when selected it shows the direction arrow of the possible movement.
• See bear and arrow: when selected it shows bear and arrow label
• See bull and arrow: when selected it shows bull and arrow label
The following image shows the ignored bar and painted signal:
- Take profit / loss
The profit / loss taking varies depending on the trader and its risk / monetary plan, the proposal is a recommendation based on the nature of the event that is to have a small risk unit (stop below the minimum of the ignored bar), look for objectives in ratios greater than 2: 1 and eliminate the risk in 1: 1 by taking the stop to BE, all parameters are configurable and are the following:
• See recommended stop loss and take profit: trace the levels of Stop, BE, TP1 and TP2, as well as their prices to know them quickly based on the assumed risk
• To: select which event you want to draw the SL and TP (VRI, VVI)
• Extend stop loss line x bars: allows extending the stop line by x number of bars
• Extend take profit line x bars: allows extending the stop line by x number of bars
• Ratio to move to break even: allows you to select the minimum ratio to move stop to break even (default 1: 1)
• Take profit 1 ratio: allows you to select the ratio for take profit 1 (default 2: 1)
• Take profit 2 ratio: allows you to select the ratio for take profit 2 (default 4: 1)
- Alerts
• It is possible to configure the following alerts:
-VRI DETECTED
-VVI DETECTED
-VRI / VVI DETECTED
Final Notes:
- The term hard rules refers to the fact that an event is sought with the rules detailed above to obtain a high quality event but this brings 2 situations to consider, less
number of events and events that are generated in a strong impulse may be leaked, a very large control bar followed by an ignored narrow body away from moving averages, despite having a good chance of continuing, taking a stop very tight in a strong impulse you can touch it by the simple fact of the own volatility at that time.
- The setting of the parameters “Minimum body percentage% (control bar)”, “Above x% of the control bar (bar ignored)” and “Cannot override the minimum of the ignored bar” can bring large Benefits in terms of number of events and that can also be of high quality, feel free to find the best configuration for your instrument to operate.
- It is recommended to look for trending events, near moving averages and at an early stage of it.
- The display of several nearby VRIs or VVIs in an advanced trend may indicate a depletion of it.
- The alerts can be worked in 2 ways: at the closing of the candle (confirms event but the risk unit may be larger or smaller) or immediately the body of the ignored bar is exceeded, in case you are operating from the mobile and miss many events because of the short time I recommend that you operate in a superior time frame to have more time.
- The indicator is configured with “flexible” rules to have more events, but without any important criteria, each trader has to look for the best configuration that suits his instrument.
- It is recommended to partially close the operation based on the ratio and always keep a part of the position to apply manual trailing stop and try to maximize profits.
The code is open feel free to use and modify it, a mention in credits is appreciated.

📊 HOW IT WORKS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1. KALMAN FILTER
The indicator applies Kalman filtering to price and ATR data, using
mathematical equations derived from Rudolf E. Kalman's work. This
advanced filtering technique:
• Smooths price data while maintaining responsiveness
• Removes outliers and reduces market noise
• Adapts to changing market conditions
• Improves signal accuracy and reliability
2. MODIFIED SUPERTREND
A customized Supertrend calculation that uses:
• Kalman-filtered HL2 price instead of raw prices
• Filtered ATR for volatility measurement
• Adaptive trailing bands that follow price
• Trend detection with minimal lag
3. VWMA DYNAMIC ZONES
Volume-Weighted Moving Average bands that:
• Calculate from highest/lowest prices over lookback period
• Adapt to current volatility and price range
• Identify true overbought/oversold conditions
• Provide logical take-profit targets
4. SIGNAL GENERATION
• BUY: When price breaks above Supertrend (trend flips bullish)
• SELL: When price breaks below Supertrend (trend flips bearish)
• REVERSAL: When price rejects from OB/OS zones
• TAKE PROFIT: When price reaches target zones or forms HH/LL

1. WHY THIS INDICATOR IS DIFFERENT
Most traders use multiple separate indicators on their charts, leading to cluttered screens, conflicting signals, and analysis paralysis. The Suite solves this by integrating proven technical tools into a single, cohesive system.
Key Advantages:
All-in-One Design: Instead of loading 5-10 separate indicators, you get everything in one optimized script. This reduces chart clutter and improves TradingView performance.
Multi-Timeframe Bias Table: Unlike standard indicators that only show the current timeframe, the Bias Table aggregates trend signals across multiple timeframes simultaneously. See at a glance whether 1m, 5m, 15m, 1h are aligned bullish or bearish - no more switching between charts.
Smart Confirmations: The indicator doesn't just give signals - it shows you WHY. Every entry has multiple layers of confirmation (MA cross, MACD momentum, ADX strength, RSI pullback, volume, etc.) that you can toggle on/off.
Dynamic Stop Loss System: Instead of static ATR stops, the SL is calculated from multiple support/resistance layers: UT trailing line, Supertrend, VWAP, swing structure, and MA levels. This creates more intelligent, price-action-aware stops.
R-Multiple Take Profits: Built-in TP system calculates targets based on your initial risk (1R, 1.5R, 2R, 3R). Lines freeze when touched with visual checkmarks, giving you a clean audit trail of partial exits.
Educational Tooltips Everywhere: Every single input has detailed tooltips explaining what it does, typical values, and how it impacts trading. You're not guessing - you're learning as you configure.
Performance Optimized: Smart caching, conditional calculations, and modular design mean the indicator runs fast despite having 15+ features. Turn off what you don't use for even better performance.
No Repainting: All signals respect bar close. Alerts fire correctly. What you see in history is what you would have gotten in real-time.
What Makes It Unique:
Integrated UT Bot + Bias Table: No other indicator combines UT Bot's ATR trailing system with a live multi-timeframe dashboard. You get precision entries with macro trend context.
Candlestick Pattern Recognition with Interactive Tooltips: Patterns aren't just marked - hover over any emoji for a full explanation of what the pattern means and how to trade it.
Opening Range Breakout Tracker: Built-in ORB system for intraday traders with customizable session times and real-time status updates in the Bias Table.
Previous Day High/Low Auto-Detection: Automatically plots PDH/PDL on intraday charts with theme-aware colors. Updates daily without manual input.
Dynamic Row Labels in Bias Table: The table shows your actual settings (e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20") not generic labels. You know exactly what's being evaluated.
Modular Filter System: Instead of forcing a fixed methodology, the indicator lets you build your own strategy. Start with just UT Bot, add filters one at a time, test what works for your style.
---
2. WHO WHOULD USE THIS
Designed For:
Intermediate to Advanced Traders: You understand basic technical analysis (MAs, RSI, MACD) and want to combine multiple confirmations efficiently. This isn't a "one-click profit" system - it's a professional toolkit.
Multi-Timeframe Traders: If you trade one asset but check multiple timeframes for confirmation (e.g., enter on 5m after checking 15m and 1h alignment), the Bias Table will save you hours every week.
Trend Followers: The indicator excels at identifying and following trends using UT Bot, Supertrend, and MA systems. If you trade breakouts and pullbacks in trending markets, this is built for you.
Intraday and Swing Traders: Works equally well on 5m-1h charts (day trading) and 4h-D charts (swing trading). Scalpers can use it too with appropriate settings adjustments.
Discretionary Traders: This isn't a black-box system. You see all the components, understand the logic, and make final decisions. Perfect for traders who want tools, not automation.
Works Across All Markets:
Stocks (US, international)
Cryptocurrency (24/7 markets supported)
Forex pairs
Indices (SPY, QQQ, etc.)
Commodities
NOT Ideal For :
Complete Beginners: If you don't know what a moving average or RSI is, start with basics first. This indicator assumes foundational knowledge.
Algo Traders Seeking Black Box: This is discretionary. Signals require context and confirmation. Not suitable for blind automated execution.
Mean-Reversion Only Traders: The indicator is trend-following at its core. While VWAP bands support mean-reversion, the primary methodology is trend continuation.
---
3. CORE COMPONENTS OVERVIEW
The indicator combines these proven systems:
Trend Analysis:
Moving Averages: Four customizable MAs (Fast, Medium, Medium-Long, Long) with six types to choose from (EMA, SMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, HMA). Mix and match for your style.
Supertrend: ATR-based trend indicator with unique gradient fill showing trend strength. One-sided ribbon visualization makes it easier to see momentum building or fading.
ZLSMA : Zero-lag linear-regression smoothed moving average. Reduces lag compared to traditional MAs while maintaining smooth curves.
Momentum & Filters:
MACD: Standard MACD with separation filter to avoid weak crossovers.
RSI: Pullback zone detection - only enter longs when RSI is in your defined "buy zone" and shorts in "sell zone".
ADX/DMI: Trend strength measurement with directional filter. Ensures you only trade when there's actual momentum.
Volume Filter: Relative volume confirmation - require above-average volume for entries.
Donchian Breakout: Optional channel breakout requirement.
Signal Systems:
UT Bot: The primary signal generator. ATR trailing stop that adapts to volatility and gives clear entry/exit points.
Base Signals: MA cross system with all the above filters applied. More conservative than UT Bot alone.
Market Bias Table: Multi-timeframe dashboard showing trend alignment across 7 timeframes plus macro bias (3-day, weekly, monthly, quarterly, VIX).
Candlestick Patterns: Six major reversal patterns auto-detected with interactive tooltips.
ORB Tracker: Opening range high/low with breakout status (intraday only).
PDH/PDL: Previous day levels plotted automatically on intraday charts.
VWAP + Bands : Session-anchored VWAP with up to three standard deviation band pairs.
---
4. THE UT BOT TRADING SYSTEM
The UT Bot is the heart of the indicator's signal generation. It's an advanced ATR trailing stop that adapts to market volatility.
Why UT Bot is Superior to Fixed Stops:
Traditional ATR stops use a fixed multiplier (e.g., "stop = entry - 2×ATR"). UT Bot is smarter:
It TRAILS the stop as price moves in your favor
It WIDENS during high volatility to avoid premature stops
It TIGHTENS during consolidation to lock in profits
It FLIPS when price breaks the trailing line, signaling reversals
Visual Elements You'll See:
Orange Trailing Line: The actual UT stop level that adapts bar-by-bar
Buy/Sell Labels: Aqua triangle (long) or orange triangle (short) when the line flips
ENTRY Line: Horizontal line at your entry price (optional, can be turned off)
Suggested Stop Loss: A composite SL calculated from multiple support/resistance layers:
- UT trailing line
- Supertrend level
- VWAP
- Swing structure (recent lows/highs)
- Long-term MA (200)
- ATR-based floor
Take Profit Lines: TP1, TP1.5, TP2, TP3 based on R-multiples. When price touches a TP, it's marked with a checkmark and the line freezes for audit trail purposes.
Status Messages: "SL Touched ❌" or "SL Frozen" when the trade leg completes.
How UT Bot Differs from Other ATR Systems:
Multiple Filters Available: You can require 2-bar confirmation, minimum % price change, swing structure alignment, or ZLSMA directional filter. Most UT implementations have none of these.
Smart SL Calculation: Instead of just using the UT line as your stop, the indicator suggests a better SL based on actual support/resistance. This prevents getting stopped out by wicks while keeping risk controlled.
Visual Audit Trail: All SL/TP lines freeze when touched with clear markers. You can review your trades weeks later and see exactly where entries, stops, and targets were.
Performance Options: "Draw UT visuals only on bar close" lets you reduce rendering load without affecting logic or alerts - critical for slower machines or 1m charts.
Trading Logic:
UT Bot flips direction (Buy or Sell signal appears)
Check Bias Table for multi-timeframe confirmation
Optional: Wait for Base signal or candlestick pattern
Enter at signal bar close or next bar open
Place stop at "Suggested Stop Loss" line
Scale out at TP levels (TP1, TP2, TP3)
Exit remaining position on opposite UT signal or stop hit

5. UNDERSTANDING THE MARKET BIAS TABLE
This is the indicator's unique multi-timeframe intelligence layer. Instead of looking at one chart at a time, the table aggregates signals across seven timeframes plus macro trend bias.
Why Multi-Timeframe Analysis Matters:
Professional traders check higher and lower timeframes for context:
Is the 1h uptrend aligning with my 5m entry?
Are all short-term timeframes bullish or just one?
Is the daily trend supportive or fighting me?
Doing this manually means opening multiple charts, checking each indicator, and making mental notes. The Bias Table does it automatically in one glance.
Table Structure:
Header Row:
On intraday charts: 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 4h (toggle which ones you want)
On daily+ charts: D, W, M (automatic)
Green dot next to title = live updating
Headline Rows - Macro Bias:
These show broad market direction over longer periods:
3 Day Bias: Trend over last 3 trading sessions (uses 1h data)
Weekly Bias: Trend over last 5 trading sessions (uses 4h data)
Monthly Bias: Trend over last 30 daily bars
Quarterly Bias: Trend over last 13 weekly bars
VIX Fear Index: Market regime based on VIX level - bullish when low, bearish when high
Opening Range Breakout: Status of price vs. session open range (intraday only)
These rows show text: "BULLISH", "BEARISH", or "NEUTRAL"
Indicator Rows - Technical Signals:
These evaluate your configured indicators across all active timeframes:
Fast MA > Medium MA (shows your actual MA settings, e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20")
Price > Long MA (e.g., "Price > SMA 200")
Price > VWAP
MACD > Signal
Supertrend (up/down/neutral)
ZLSMA Rising
RSI In Zone
ADX ≥ Minimum
These rows show emojis: GREEB (bullish), RED (bearish), GRAY/YELLOW (neutral/NA)
AVG Column:
Shows percentage of active timeframes that are bullish for that row. This is the KEY metric:
AVG > 70% = strong multi-timeframe bullish alignment
AVG 40-60% = mixed/choppy, no clear trend
AVG < 30% = strong multi-timeframe bearish alignment
How to Use the Table:
For a long trade:
Check AVG column - want to see > 60% ideally
Check headline bias rows - want to see BULLISH, not BEARISH
Check VIX row - bullish market regime preferred
Check ORB row (intraday) - want ABOVE for longs
Scan indicator rows - more green = better confirmation
For a short trade:
Check AVG column - want to see < 40% ideally
Check headline bias rows - want to see BEARISH, not BULLISH
Check VIX row - bearish market regime preferred
Check ORB row (intraday) - want BELOW for shorts
Scan indicator rows - more red = better confirmation
When AVG is 40-60%:
Market is choppy, mixed signals. Either stay out or reduce position size significantly. These are low-probability environments.
Unique Features:
Dynamic Labels: Row names show your actual settings (e.g., "EMA 10 > SMA 20" not generic "Fast > Slow"). You know exactly what's being evaluated.
Customizable Rows: Turn off rows you don't care about. Only show what matters to your strategy.
Customizable Timeframes: On intraday charts, disable 1m or 4h if you don't trade them. Reduces calculation load by 20-40%.
Automatic HTF Handling: On Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts, the table automatically switches to D/W/M columns. No configuration needed.
Performance Smart: "Hide BIAS table on 1D or above" option completely skips all table calculations on higher timeframes if you only trade intraday.
---
6. CANDLESTICK PATTERN RECOGNITION
The indicator automatically detects six major reversal patterns and marks them with emojis at the relevant bars.
Why These Six Patterns:
These are the most statistically significant reversal patterns according to trading literature:
High win rate when appearing at support/resistance
Clear visual structure (not subjective)
Work across all timeframes and assets
Studied extensively by institutions
The Patterns:
Bullish Patterns (appear at bottoms):
Bullish Engulfing: Green candle completely engulfs prior red candle's body. Strong reversal signal.
Hammer: Small body with long lower wick (at least 2× body size). Shows rejection of lower prices by buyers.
Morning Star: Three-candle pattern (large red → small indecision → large green). Very strong bottom reversal.
Bearish Patterns (appear at tops):
Bearish Engulfing: Red candle completely engulfs prior green candle's body. Strong reversal signal.
Shooting Star: Small body with long upper wick (at least 2× body size). Shows rejection of higher prices by sellers.
Evening Star: Three-candle pattern (large green → small indecision → large red). Very strong top reversal.
Interactive Tooltips:
Unlike most pattern indicators that just draw shapes, this one is educational:
Hover your mouse over any pattern emoji
A tooltip appears explaining: what the pattern is, what it means, when it's most reliable, and how to trade it
No need to memorize - learn as you trade
Noise Filter:
"Min candle body % to filter noise" setting prevents false signals:
Patterns require minimum body size relative to price
Filters out tiny candles that don't represent real buying/selling pressure
Adjust based on asset volatility (higher % for crypto, lower for low-volatility stocks)
How to Trade Patterns:
Patterns are NOT standalone entry signals. Use them as:
Confirmation: UT Bot gives signal + pattern appears = stronger entry
Reversal Warning: In a trade, opposite pattern appears = consider tightening stop or taking profit
Support/Resistance Validation: Pattern at key level (PDH, VWAP, MA 200) = level is being respected
Best combined with:
UT Bot or Base signal in same direction
Bias Table alignment (AVG > 60% or < 40%)
Appearance at obvious support/resistance
---
7. VISUAL TOOLS AND FEATURES
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):
Session-anchored VWAP with standard deviation bands. Shows institutional "fair value" for the trading session.
Anchor Options: Session, Day, Week, Month, Quarter, Year. Choose based on your trading timeframe.
Bands: Up to three pairs (X1, X2, X3) showing statistical deviation. Price at outer bands often reverses.
Auto-Hide on HTF: VWAP hides on Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts automatically unless you enable anchored mode.
Use VWAP as:
Directional bias (above = bullish, below = bearish)
Mean reversion levels (outer bands)
Support/resistance (the VWAP line itself)
Previous Day High/Low:
Automatically plots yesterday's high and low on intraday charts:
Updates at start of each new trading day
Theme-aware colors (dark text for light charts, light text for dark charts)
Hidden automatically on Daily/Weekly/Monthly charts
These levels are critical for intraday traders - institutions watch them closely as support/resistance.
Opening Range Breakout (ORB):
Tracks the high/low of the first 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes of the trading session:
Customizable session times (preset for NYSE, LSE, TSE, or custom)
Shows current breakout status in Bias Table row (ABOVE, BELOW, INSIDE, BUILDING)
Intraday only - auto-disabled on Daily+ charts
ORB is a classic day trading strategy - breakout above opening range often leads to continuation.
Extra Labels:
Change from Open %: Shows how far price has moved from session open (intraday) or daily open (HTF). Green if positive, red if negative.
ADX Badge: Small label at bottom of last bar showing current ADX value. Green when above your minimum threshold, red when below.
RSI Badge: Small label at top of last bar showing current RSI value with zone status (buy zone, sell zone, or neutral).
These labels provide quick at-a-glance confirmation without needing separate indicator windows.

8. HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
Step 1: Add to Chart
Load the indicator on your chosen asset and timeframe
First time: Everything is enabled by default - the chart will look busy
Don't panic - you'll turn off what you don't need
Step 2: Start Simple
Turn OFF everything except:
UT Bot labels (keep these ON)
Bias Table (keep this ON)
Moving Averages (Fast and Medium only)
Suggested Stop Loss and Take Profits
Hide everything else initially. Get comfortable with the basic UT Bot + Bias Table workflow first.
Step 3: Learn the Core Workflow
UT Bot gives a Buy or Sell signal
Check Bias Table AVG column - do you have multi-timeframe alignment?
If yes, enter the trade
Place stop at Suggested Stop Loss line
Scale out at TP levels
Exit on opposite UT signal
Trade this simple system for a week. Get a feel for signal frequency and win rate with your settings.
Step 4: Add Filters Gradually
If you're getting too many losing signals (whipsaws in choppy markets), add filters one at a time:
Try: "Require 2-Bar Trend Confirmation" - wait for 2 bars to confirm direction
Try: ADX filter with minimum threshold - only trade when trend strength is sufficient
Try: RSI pullback filter - only enter on pullbacks, not chasing
Try: Volume filter - require above-average volume
Add one filter, test for a week, evaluate. Repeat.
Step 5: Enable Advanced Features (Optional)
Once you're profitable with the core system, add:
Supertrend for additional trend confirmation
Candlestick patterns for reversal warnings
VWAP for institutional anchor reference
ORB for intraday breakout context
ZLSMA for low-lag trend following
Step 6: Optimize Settings
Every setting has a detailed tooltip explaining what it does and typical values. Hover over any input to read:
What the parameter controls
How it impacts trading
Suggested ranges for scalping, day trading, and swing trading
Start with defaults, then adjust based on your results and style.
Step 7: Set Up Alerts
Right-click chart → Add Alert → Condition: "Luxy Momentum v6" → Choose:
"UT Bot — Buy" for long entries
"UT Bot — Sell" for short entries
"Base Long/Short" for filtered MA cross signals
Optionally enable "Send real-time alert() on UT flip" in settings for immediate notifications.
Common Workflow Variations:
Conservative Trader:
UT signal + Base signal + Candlestick pattern + Bias AVG > 70%
Enter only at major support/resistance
Wider UT sensitivity, multiple filters
Aggressive Trader:
UT signal + Bias AVG > 60%
Enter immediately, no waiting
Tighter UT sensitivity, minimal filters
Swing Trader:
Focus on Daily/Weekly Bias alignment
Ignore intraday noise
Use ORB and PDH/PDL less (or not at all)
Wider stops, patient approach

9. PERFORMANCE AND OPTIMIZATION
The indicator is optimized for speed, but with 15+ features running simultaneously, chart load time can add up. Here's how to keep it fast:
Biggest Performance Gains:
Disable Unused Timeframes: In "Time Frames" settings, turn OFF any timeframe you don't actively trade. Each disabled TF saves 10-15% calculation time. If you only day trade 5m, 15m, 1h, disable 1m, 2h, 4h.
Hide Bias Table on Daily+: If you only trade intraday, enable "Hide BIAS table on 1D or above". This skips ALL table calculations on higher timeframes.
Draw UT Visuals Only on Bar Close: Reduces intrabar rendering of SL/TP/Entry lines. Has ZERO impact on logic or alerts - purely visual optimization.
Additional Optimizations:
Turn off VWAP bands if you don't use them
Disable candlestick patterns if you don't trade them
Turn off Supertrend fill if you find it distracting (keep the line)
Reduce "Limit to 10 bars" for SL/TP lines to minimize line objects
Performance Features Built-In:
Smart Caching: Higher timeframe data (3-day bias, weekly bias, etc.) updates once per day, not every bar
Conditional Calculations: Volume filter only calculates when enabled. Swing filter only runs when enabled. Nothing computes if turned off.
Modular Design: Every component is independent. Turn off what you don't need without breaking other features.
Typical Load Times:
5m chart, all features ON, 7 timeframes: ~2-3 seconds
5m chart, core features only, 3 timeframes: ~1 second
1m chart, all features: ~4-5 seconds (many bars to calculate)
If loading takes longer, you likely have too many indicators on the chart total (not just this one).
---
10. FAQ
Q: How is this different from standard UT Bot indicators?
A: Standard UT Bot (originally by @QuantNomad) is just the ATR trailing line and flip signals. This implementation adds:
- Volume weighting and momentum adjustment to the trailing calculation
- Multiple confirmation filters (swing, %, 2-bar, ZLSMA)
- Smart composite stop loss system from multiple S/R layers
- R-multiple take profit system with freeze-on-touch
- Integration with multi-timeframe Bias Table
- Visual audit trail with checkmarks
Q: Can I use this for automated trading?
A: The indicator is designed for discretionary trading. While it has clear signals and alerts, it's not a mechanical system. Context and judgment are required.
Q: Does it repaint?
A: No. All signals respect bar close. UT Bot logic runs intrabar but signals only trigger on confirmed bars. Alerts fire correctly with no lookahead.
Q: Do I need to use all the features?
A: Absolutely not. The indicator is modular. Many profitable traders use just UT Bot + Bias Table + Moving Averages. Start simple, add complexity only if needed.
Q: How do I know which settings to use?
A: Every single input has a detailed tooltip. Hover over any setting to see:
What it does
How it affects trading
Typical values for scalping, day trading, swing trading
Start with defaults, adjust gradually based on results.
Q: Can I use this on crypto 24/7 markets?
A: Yes. ORB will not work (no defined session), but everything else functions normally. Use "Day" anchor for VWAP instead of "Session".
Q: The Bias Table is blank or not showing.
A: Check:
"Show Table" is ON
Table position isn't overlapping another indicator's table (change position)
At least one row is enabled
"Hide BIAS table on 1D or above" is OFF (if on Daily+ chart)
Q: Why are candlestick patterns not appearing?
A: Patterns are relatively rare by design - they only appear at genuine reversal points. Check:
Pattern toggles are ON
"Min candle body %" isn't too high (try 0.05-0.10)
You're looking at a chart with actual reversals (not strong trending market)
Q: UT Bot is too sensitive/not sensitive enough.
A: Adjust "Sensitivity (Key×ATR)". Lower number = tighter stop, more signals. Higher number = wider stop, fewer signals. Read the tooltip for guidance.
Q: Can I get alerts for the Bias Table?
A: The Bias Table is a dashboard for visual analysis, not a signal generator. Set alerts on UT Bot or Base signals, then manually check Bias Table for confirmation.
Q: Does this work on stocks with low volume?
A: Yes, but turn OFF the volume filter. Low volume stocks will never meet relative volume requirements.
Q: How often should I check the Bias Table?
A: Before every entry. It takes 2 seconds to glance at the AVG column and headline rows. This one check can save you from fighting the trend.
Q: What if UT signal and Base signal disagree?
A: UT Bot is more aggressive (ATR trailing). Base signals are more conservative (MA cross + filters). If they disagree, either:
Wait for both to align (safest)
Take the UT signal but with smaller size (aggressive)
Skip the trade (conservative)
There's no "right" answer - depends on your risk tolerance.

Camarilla Pivots + 20 EMA StrategyThis is an intraday volatility and trend-following system for commodities like Natural Gas, combining dynamic pivot levels (Camarilla) with a trend filter (20-period EMA) to improve risk-reward and reduce false breakouts.
Core Components
1. Camarilla Pivots:
These are special support and resistance levels (H3, H4, L3, L4) calculated each day based on the previous day's high, low, and close.
The pivots adapt to daily volatility, giving more relevant breakout and bounce zones than static lines.
H4: Aggressive resistance (used for breakout LONG entry)
H3: Moderate resistance/support (used for bounce or stoploss)
L4: Aggressive support (used for breakout SHORT entry)
L3: Moderate support/resistance (used for bounce or stoploss)
2. 20 EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
Plotted on the 30-minute chart, this acts as a trend filter.
If the price is above 20 EMA: Only look for long trades (bullish bias).
If below 20 EMA: Only look for short trades (bearish bias).
How the Strategy Works
Setup (30-Min Chart):
Camarilla pivots for the day are drawn on the chart.
20 EMA is also plotted.
Trade Filter:
Bullish: Trade ONLY if price is above 20 EMA.
Bearish: Trade ONLY if price is below 20 EMA.
Entry:
LONG: Enter when price breaks and closes above the H4 pivot AND is above 20 EMA.
SHORT: Enter when price breaks and closes below the L4 pivot AND is below 20 EMA.
Stop Loss:
LONG: Place stoploss at H3 (the next lower Camarilla resistance).
SHORT: Place stoploss at L3 (the next higher Camarilla support).
Target:
Always set a profit target at 2x the distance (risk) between entry and stoploss (strict R:R 2).
For example, if your entry is at H4 and stoploss at H3, your target is entry + 2*(entry - stoploss).
Alerts & Visuals:
The strategy plots entry arrows, stoploss and target lines for immediate visual reference.
Alerts trigger on breakout signals so you never miss a trade.
Why This Works Well for Natural Gas
Adapts to volatility: The pivots change daily, handling wide-ranging and choppy price moves better than fixed breakouts.
Trend filter: EMA prevents counter-trend whipsaws, only trades with market momentum.
Risk control: Every trade must meet strict risk-reward criteria, so losses are contained and winners can outweigh losers.
15-Min RSI Scalper [SwissAlgo]15-Min RSI Scalper
Tracks RSI Momentum Loss and Gain to Generate Signals
-------------------------------------------------------
WHAT THIS INDICATOR CALCULATES
This indicator attempts to identify RSI directional changes (RSI momentum) using a step-by-step "ladder" method. It reads RSI(14) from the next higher timeframe relative to your chart. On a 15-minute chart, it uses 1-hour RSI. On a 5-minute chart, it uses 15-minute RSI, and so on.
How the ladder logic works:
The indicator doesn't track RSI all the time. It only starts tracking when RSI crosses into potentially extreme territory (these are called "events" in the code):
For sell signals : when RSI crosses above a dynamic upper threshold (typically between 60-80, calculated as the 90th percentile of recent RSI)
For buy signals : when RSI crosses below a dynamic lower threshold (typically between 20-40, calculated as the 10th percentile of recent RSI)
Once tracking begins, RSI movement is divided into 2-point steps (boxes). The indicator counts how many boxes RSI climbs or falls.
A signal generates only when:
RSI reverses direction by at least 2 boxes (4 RSI points) from its extreme
RSI holds that reversal for 3 consecutive confirmed bars
Example: Dynamic threshold is at 68. RSI crosses above 68 → tracking starts. RSI climbs to 76 (4 boxes up). Then it drops back to 72 and stays below that level for 3 bars → sell signal prints. The buy signal works the same way in reverse.
-------------------------------------------------------
SIGNAL GENERATION METHODOLOGY
Sell Signal (Red Triangle)
RSI crosses above a dynamic start level (calculated as the 90th percentile of the last 1000 bars, constrained between 60-80)
Indicator tracks upward progression in 2-point boxes
RSI reverses and drops below a boundary 2 boxes below the highest box reached
RSI remains below that boundary for 3 confirmed bars
Red triangle plots above price
Reset condition: RSI returns below 50
Buy Signal (Green Triangle)
RSI crosses below a dynamic start level (10th percentile of last 1000 bars, constrained between 20-40)
Indicator tracks downward progression in 2-point boxes
RSI reverses and rises above a boundary 2 boxes above the lowest box reached
RSI remains above that boundary for 3 confirmed bars
Green triangle plots below price
Reset condition: RSI returns above 50
-------------------------------------------------------
TECHNICAL PARAMETERS
All parameters are hardcoded:
RSI Period: 14
Box Size: 2 RSI points
Reversal Threshold: 2 boxes (4 RSI points)
Confirmation Period: 3 bars
Reset Level: RSI 50
Sell Start Range: 60-80 (dynamic)
Buy Start Range: 20-40 (dynamic)
Lookback for Percentile: 1000 bars
Note: Since the code is open source, users can modify these hardcoded values directly in the script to adjust sensitivity. For example, increasing the confirmation period from 3 to 5 bars will produce fewer but more conservative signals. Decreasing the box size from 2 to 1 will make the indicator more responsive to smaller RSI movements.
-------------------------------------------------------
KEY FEATURES
Automatic Higher Timeframe RSI
When applied to a 15-minute chart, the indicator automatically reads 1-hour RSI data. This is the next standard timeframe above 15 minutes in the indicator's logic.
Dynamic Adaptive Start Levels
Sell signals use the 90th percentile of RSI over the last 1000 bars, constrained between 60-80. Buy signals use the 10th percentile, constrained between 20-40. These thresholds recalculate on each bar based on recent data.
Ladder Box System
RSI movements are tracked in 2-point boxes. The indicator requires a 2-box reversal followed by 3 consecutive bars maintaining that reversal before generating a signal.
Dual Signal Output
Red down-triangles plot above price when the sell signal conditions are met. Green up-triangles plot below the price when buy signal conditions are met.
-------------------------------------------------------
REPAINTING
This indicator does not repaint. All calculations use "barstate.isconfirmed" to ensure signals appear only on closed bars. The request.security() call uses lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off to prevent forward-looking bias.
-------------------------------------------------------
INTENDED CHART TIMEFRAME
This indicator is designed for use on 15-minute charts. The visual reminder table at the top of the chart indicates this requirement.
On a 15-minute chart:
RSI data comes from the 1-hour timeframe
Signals reflect 1-hour momentum shifts
3-bar confirmation equals 45 minutes of price action
Using it on other timeframes will change the higher timeframe RSI source and may produce different behavior.
-------------------------------------------------------
WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES NOT DO
Does not predict future price movements
Does not provide entry or exit advice
Does not guarantee profitable trades
Does not replace comprehensive technical analysis
Does not account for fundamental factors, news events, or market structure
Does not adapt to all market conditions equally
-------------------------------------------------------
EDUCATIONAL USE
This indicator demonstrates one approach to momentum reversal detection using:
Multi-timeframe analysis
Adaptive thresholds via percentile calculation
Step-wise momentum tracking
Multi-bar confirmation logic
It is designed as a technical study, not a trading system. Signals represent calculated conditions based on RSI behavior, not trade recommendations. Always do your own analysis before taking market positions.
-------------------------------------------------------

TRP Stop-Loss_Trailing SL# TRP Stop-Loss Indicator
## Overview
The TRP (True Range Percentage) Stop-Loss indicator is an advanced volatility-based stop-loss tool that provides dynamic position protection based on market volatility. Unlike traditional ATR-based indicators, TRP calculates volatility as a percentage of price, offering superior adaptability across different price ranges and market conditions.
## What is TRP and Why It's Superior to ATR
### TRP (True Range Percentage)
TRP calculates the true range as a percentage of the closing price, providing a **normalized volatility measure**. The formula is:
```
TRP = (True Range / Close) × 100
```
### Key Advantages of TRP over ATR:
1. **Price-Normalized Volatility**: TRP automatically adjusts for different price levels, making it equally effective whether you're trading a $10 stock or a $1000 stock.
2. **Percentage-Based Risk**: TRP gives you direct percentage risk values, making position sizing and risk management more intuitive.
3. **Better Cross-Market Comparison**: Unlike ATR, TRP allows you to compare volatility across different instruments on an equal basis.
4. **Adaptive to Market Conditions**: TRP naturally scales with price movements, providing more relevant stop-loss levels during trending markets.
5. **Consistent Risk Exposure**: Maintains consistent percentage risk regardless of the underlying asset's price level.
## Indicator Features
### 🎯 **Dual Stop-Loss System**
- **Long SL**: Red line below price for long positions
- **Short SL**: Blue line above price for short positions
- Independent control for each direction
### ⚙️ **Advanced Calculation Options**

QZ Trend (Crypto Edition) v1.1a: Donchian, EMA, ATR, Liquidity/FThe "QZ Trend (Crypto Edition)" is a rules-based trend-following breakout strategy for crypto spot or perpetual contracts, focusing on following trends, prioritizing risk control, seeking small losses and big wins, and trading only when advantageous.
Key mechanisms include:
- Market filters: Screen favorable conditions via ADX (trend strength), dollar volume (liquidity), funding fee windows, session/weekend restrictions, and spot-long-only settings.
- Signals & entries: Based on price position relative to EMA and EMA trends, combined with breaking Donchian channel extremes (with ATR ratio confirmation), plus single-position rules and post-exit cooldowns.
- Position sizing: Calculate positions by fixed risk percentage; initial stop-loss is ATR-based, complying with exchange min/max lot requirements.
- Exits & risk management: Include initial stop-loss, trailing stop (tightens only), break-even rule (stop moves to entry when target floating profit is hit), time-based exit, and post-exit cooldowns.
- Pyramiding: Add positions only when profitable with favorable momentum, requiring ATR-based spacing; add size is a fraction of the base position, with layers sharing stop logic but having unique order IDs.
Charts display EMA, Donchian channels, current stop lines, and highlight low ADX, avoidable funding windows, and low-liquidity periods.
Recommend starting with 4H or 1D timeframes, with typical parameters varying by cycle. Liquidity settings differ by token; perpetuals should enable funding window filters, while spot requires "long-only" and matching fees. The strategy performs well in trends with quick stop-losses but faces whipsaws in ranges (filters mitigate but don’t eliminate noise). Share your symbol and timeframe for tailored parameters.

Hilly's Advanced Crypto Scalping Strategy - 5 Min ChartTo determine the "best" input parameters for the Advanced Crypto Scalping Strategy on a 5-minute chart, we need to consider the goals of optimizing for profitability, minimizing false signals, and adapting to the volatile nature of cryptocurrencies. The default parameters in the script are a starting point, but the optimal values depend on the specific cryptocurrency pair, market conditions, and your risk tolerance. Below, I'll provide recommended input values based on common practices in crypto scalping, along with reasoning for each parameter. I’ll also suggest how to fine-tune them using TradingView’s backtesting and optimization tools.
Recommended Input Parameters
These values are tailored for a 5-minute chart for liquid cryptocurrencies like BTC/USD or ETH/USD on exchanges like Binance or Coinbase. They aim to balance signal frequency and accuracy for day trading.
Fast EMA Length (emaFastLen): 9
Reasoning: A 9-period EMA is commonly used in scalping to capture short-term price movements while remaining sensitive to recent price action. It reacts faster than the default 10, aligning with the 5-minute timeframe.
Slow EMA Length (emaSlowLen): 21
Reasoning: A 21-period EMA provides a good balance for identifying the broader trend on a 5-minute chart. It’s slightly longer than the default 20 to reduce noise while confirming the trend direction.
RSI Length (rsiLen): 14
Reasoning: The default 14-period RSI is a standard choice for momentum analysis. It works well for detecting overbought/oversold conditions without being too sensitive on short timeframes.
RSI Overbought (rsiOverbought): 75
Reasoning: Raising the overbought threshold to 75 (from 70) reduces false sell signals in strong bullish trends, which are common in crypto markets.
RSI Oversold (rsiOversold): 25
Reasoning: Lowering the oversold threshold to 25 (from 30) filters out weaker buy signals, ensuring entries occur during stronger reversals.
MACD Fast Length (macdFast): 12
Reasoning: The default 12-period fast EMA for MACD is effective for capturing short-term momentum shifts in crypto, aligning with scalping goals.
MACD Slow Length (macdSlow): 26
Reasoning: The default 26-period slow EMA is a standard setting that works well for confirming momentum trends without lagging too much.
MACD Signal Smoothing (macdSignal): 9
Reasoning: The default 9-period signal line is widely used and provides a good balance for smoothing MACD crossovers on a 5-minute chart.
Bollinger Bands Length (bbLen): 20
Reasoning: The default 20-period Bollinger Bands are effective for identifying volatility breakouts, which are key for scalping in crypto markets.
Bollinger Bands Multiplier (bbMult): 2.0
Reasoning: A 2.0 multiplier is standard and captures most price action within the bands. Increasing it to 2.5 could reduce signals but improve accuracy in highly volatile markets.
Stop Loss % (slPerc): 0.8%
Reasoning: A tighter stop loss of 0.8% (from 1.0%) suits the high volatility of crypto, helping to limit losses on false breakouts while keeping risk manageable.
Take Profit % (tpPerc): 1.5%
Reasoning: A 1.5% take-profit target (from 2.0%) aligns with scalping’s goal of capturing small, frequent gains. Crypto markets often see quick reversals, so a smaller target increases the likelihood of hitting profits.
Use Candlestick Patterns (useCandlePatterns): True
Reasoning: Enabling candlestick patterns (e.g., engulfing, hammer) adds confirmation to signals, reducing false entries in choppy markets.
Use Volume Filter (useVolumeFilter): True
Reasoning: The volume filter ensures signals occur during high-volume breakouts, which are more likely to sustain in crypto markets.
Signal Arrow Size (signalSize): 2.0
Reasoning: Increasing the arrow size to 2.0 (from 1.5) makes buy/sell signals more visible on the chart, especially on smaller screens or volatile price action.
Background Highlight Transparency (bgTransparency): 85
Reasoning: A slightly higher transparency (85 from 80) keeps the background highlights subtle but visible, avoiding chart clutter.
How to Apply These Parameters
Copy the Script: Use the Pine Script provided in the previous response.
Paste in TradingView: Open TradingView, go to the Pine Editor, paste the code, and click "Add to Chart."
Set Parameters: In the strategy settings, manually input the recommended values above or adjust them via the input fields.
Test on a 5-Minute Chart: Apply the strategy to a liquid crypto pair (e.g., BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT) on a 5-minute chart.
Fine-Tuning for Optimal Performance
To find the absolute best parameters for your specific trading pair and market conditions, use TradingView’s Strategy Tester and optimization features:
Backtesting:
Run the strategy on historical data for your chosen pair (e.g., BTC/USDT on Binance).
Check metrics like Net Profit, Profit Factor, Win Rate, and Max Drawdown in the Strategy Tester.
Focus on a sample period of at least 1–3 months to capture various market conditions (bull, bear, sideways).
Parameter Optimization:
In the Strategy Tester, click the settings gear next to the strategy name.
Enable optimization for key inputs like emaFastLen (test range: 7–12), emaSlowLen (15–25), slPerc (0.5–1.5), and tpPerc (1.0–3.0).
Run the optimization to find the combination with the highest net profit or best Sharpe ratio, but avoid over-optimization (curve-fitting) by testing on out-of-sample data.
Market-Specific Adjustments:
Volatile Pairs (e.g., DOGE/USDT): Use tighter stop losses (e.g., 0.5–0.7%) and smaller take-profit targets (e.g., 1.0–1.2%) to account for rapid price swings.
Stable Pairs (e.g., BTC/USDT): Slightly wider stop losses (e.g., 1.0–1.2%) and take-profit targets (e.g., 1.8–2.5%) may work better.
Trending Markets: Increase emaSlowLen (e.g., to 25–30) to follow stronger trends.
Choppy Markets: Tighten bbMult (e.g., to 1.8) and lower rsiOverbought/rsiOversold (e.g., to 70/30) to filter noise.
Forward Testing:
After backtesting, run the strategy in real-time on a demo account for 1–2 weeks to validate performance under current market conditions.
Important Notes
No Universal "Best" Numbers: Optimal parameters vary by crypto pair, exchange, and market conditions (e.g., bull vs. bear market). The suggested values are a starting point based on common scalping practices.
Risk Management: Never risk more than 1–2% of your account per trade. Adjust position sizing in TradingView’s strategy settings to align with your risk tolerance.
Market Volatility: Crypto markets are highly volatile. Test the strategy on your specific pair and adjust parameters if signals are too frequent or too rare.
Not Financial Advice: This is an educational tool. Backtest thoroughly and use a demo account before trading with real funds.
If you want me to generate a chart showing backtest performance for specific parameters or to tweak the script further (e.g., adding more indicators or adjusting signal logic), let me know!can you add clear buy ans sell signs above the candles in this codeTo add clear buy and sell signals above the candles in the provided Pine Script, I'll modify the existing code to include prominent text labels directly above (for sell signals) and below (for buy signals) the candles. These labels will be larger, color-coded, and positioned to avoid clutter, ensuring they are easily visible on the chart. The core strategy logic (EMA, RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, candlestick patterns, and volume filter) will remain unchanged, and I'll reuse the same artifact_id since this is an update to the previous script.AdvancedCryptoScalpingStrategy.pinex-pine
Sniper Swing — Short TF (Clean Signals) [v6]📘 How to Use the Sniper Swing Indicator
1. What It Does
It looks for short-term swing breaks in price.
It uses an oscillator (RSI/Stoch) and swing pivots to confirm moves.
It gives you 3 clear signals only:
BUY → Enter long (expecting price to go up).
Gay bear → Enter short (expecting price to go down).
EXIT → Close your trade (long or short).
Candles also change color:
Green = in a BUY trade.
Red = in a Gay bear trade.
Neutral (gray/none) = no trade.
2. When to Use
Works best on short timeframes (1m–5m) for scalping/intraday.
Use on liquid markets (MES/ES, NQ, SPY, BTC, ETH).
Avoid dead hours with no volume (like overnight futures lull or midday chop).
3. How to Trade With It
A. BUY trade
Wait for a BUY triangle below the candle.
Confirm:
Candle turned green.
Price broke a recent swing high.
Oscillator shows strength (indicator does this for you).
Enter long at the close of that candle.
Place your stop-loss:
At the yellow stop line (auto trailing stop), or
Just below the last swing low.
Stay in while candles are green.
Exit when:
An orange X appears, or
Price hits your stop.
B. Gay bear (short) trade
Wait for a Gay bear triangle above the candle.
Confirm:
Candle turned red.
Price broke a recent swing low.
Oscillator shows weakness.
Enter short at the close of that candle.
Place stop-loss:
At the yellow stop line, or
Just above the last swing high.
Stay in while candles are red.
Exit on an orange X or stop hit.
4. Pro Tips for New Traders
Only take one signal at a time → don’t double dip.
Quality > Quantity: ignore weak, sideways markets. Best signals happen during trends.
Start small: trade micros (MES) or small position sizes.
Use alerts: set TradingView alerts for BUY/Gay bear/EXIT so you don’t miss setups.
Think of the indicator like a navigator: it tells you the likely path, but you’re the driver → always manage risk.
5. Quick Mental Checklist
Signal? (BUY or Gay bear triangle)
Confirmed? (candle color + swing break)
Enter? (on close)
Stop? (yellow line or swing)
Exit? (orange X or stop)
2ATR / Close %Certainly. Here is the English version of the indicator description you requested.
---
### **2ATR Stop-Loss Ratio**
This indicator provides a straightforward calculation of **what percentage a 2ATR (Average True Range) move represents relative to the current price**. It's a specialized tool designed to help traders set dynamic, volatility-based stop-loss levels.
---
### **Purpose of the Indicator**
Many traders use a **2ATR** as their standard for setting a stop-loss, believing it's a good measure of a stock's typical movement. However, it can be difficult to quickly determine the exact percentage a 2ATR drop represents from the current price. This indicator solves that problem by giving you a clear, single number that shows the **anticipated percentage loss before you even enter a position**.
---
### **How It Works**
The indicator is calculated using a simple formula:
**(2 * ATR(20) / Current Price) * 100**
* `ATR(20)`: The Average True Range over the last 20 periods. This period can be customized in the indicator's settings.
* `Current Price`: The closing price at the time of calculation.
---
### **How to Use It**
* **Assess Risk**: A higher number on the indicator means greater volatility, indicating a wider stop-loss range.
* **Set a Stop-Loss**: If the indicator shows **3%**, it means a 2ATR move is roughly a 3% change from the current price. This gives you a clear understanding of the potential loss.
* **Adjust Position Size**: If the potential percentage loss is larger than you're comfortable with, you can use this information to reduce your position size, effectively managing your risk.
This tool is especially useful for trading highly volatile stocks, as it helps you establish a clear and effective risk management strategy.

ATR SL/TPStop Loss Finder ATR
A Stop Loss Finder ATR indicator is a dynamic risk management tool leveraging the Average True Range (ATR) to identify and track optimal stop-loss levels based on current market volatility.
A stop hunt indicator is a technical tool designed to identify potential instances where large market participants, often referred to as "smart money," deliberately move the price to trigger a large number of stop-loss orders, creating a temporary price distortion before reversing the trend. These indicators aim to help traders detect these events to either avoid being stopped out or to enter trades in the direction of the anticipated reversal.
For example, a long wick below support with high volume may signal a bullish stop-hunt , indicating that the price has been driven down to trigger sell-stop orders before reversing upward. Conversely, a long wick above resistance with high volume may signal a bearish stop-hunt , suggesting the price was pushed up to trigger buy-stop orders before reversing downward. The presence of such wicks is often associated with candlestick patterns like hammers or shooting stars.
Unlike fixed stop-losses, this indicator adapts its distance from the current price using a customizable ATR multiplier, ensuring that stop-loss levels are neither too tight (prone to being triggered by normal market noise) nor too wide (exposing capital to excessive risk) . The core function calculates the true range—considering the current high-low range, gaps up, and gaps down—over a user-defined period (typically 14 bars), then applies a multiplier to generate a volatility-adjusted stop-loss distance . This approach allows the indicator to dynamically widen stops during high-volatility periods and tighten them during calm markets, providing a more responsive and context-aware exit strategy.
