TUE ADX/MACD Confluence Algorithm V1This algorithm is designed to look at the ADX/MACD confluence for opening conditions, apply various filters including volume and volatility, then determine stop outs, break evens, and take profits.
The ADX and MACD confluence can be a powerful predictor in stock movements. Both of these indicators find trend but do it in different ways. When they're combined they have a high success rate of finding openings. That's done by finding the bar in which both show the same direction - that bar is the beginning of the confluence. I have a free indicator called the TUE ADX/MACD Confluence that you can use to see this in action.
This script will help you find those confluences in an easy to understand manner. It will open a trade on a detected confluence, using the rest of the variables available in the algorithm as filters. You can filter based on cumulative volume delta, volatility, and trend. It includes settings for either trend following or contrarian trades, and the ability to go long, short, or both.
It includes Buy and Sell signals for detected confluences, and will show colored candles to help you determine when to exit a trade if you don't want to follow the included take profit areas. When the candles turn to white that means the detected confluence is no longer in play. The Buy and Sell signals will display on the first occurrence of each confluence.
The take profit areas are based on proprietary math that help find peaks and valleys. You can adjust the size of the take profits as a percentage of the position, change to static take profits (i.e. take profit in 16 ticks), or use both. You can also disable them and use the natural closing conditions (reversal of MACD/ADX confluence).
Our algo works in any market and will allow user to adjust input settings to be used on any ticker they'd like. It is built as a strategy so you can back test on any ticker to find the exact right settings to dial it in and then switch to live trading mode to see signals. Can be used for day trades or swing trades.
Automated Trading
This algo has been tested and certified to work for automated trading.
Works on Forex
It's confirmed to work on forex so you can trade that market.
Gets you into long successful trades, and gets out of poor ones quickly
It keeps you in the long trades taking small profits along the way, but cuts losers quickly in comparison. This style leads to a high profit factor, as you can see over 3.0 in the included ES 3 Min chart.
It looks at many variables so you don't have to
- Uses ADX/MACD confluence for opening/closing conditions.
- It uses volume, if the user wants, to help filter entries. The volume calculation is based off of my proprietary cumulative volume delta indicator and helps find if the volume is moving long or short.
- It uses proprietary take profit math to help find peaks and valleys to peel off profits. It is based on the changes in momentum of the underlying.
- It allows for stop outs and break evens based on volatility so they'll always adjust with the movement of the underlying ticker (see the blue lines above and below the opening in the chart).
- It allows for offset break evens to keep a portion of the profit.
Strategy for the Algo
Included so you can understand how to trade with it.
ONE: After loading this strategy onto a ticker turn off volume if it's a ticker with no volume , set the dates at the bottom to when the stock is active (you want to start backtesting when a stock started trading like it trades currently).
TWO: From there adjust the ADX/MACD to find the highest win rate and profit factor.
THREE: Then adjust the volume length to find the highest win rate and profit factor. It's important while doing these that you pay attention to a smooth upward equity curve.
FOUR: After this has been done now adjust the long and short risk multipliers. This determines your stop out.
FIVE: Then adjust breakeven multipliers - this is the level at which it changes to a breakeven stop out instead of the previous one. You can also set an offset to keep a small part of the profit.
SIX: Finally adjust the take profit sizes.
SEVEN: Once this is all done go back through the list and adjust up and down by one or two clicks and see if a better curve can be obtained. Very frequently long and short trades have different settings.
EIGHT: When you are finished save the settings in a custom indicator template and put it with it's own chart.
Additional
The settings shown on screen are not the default settings, but are settings chosen for this ticker and timeframe based on the process above. Nearly every ticker and timeframe will require adjustment from default, that's why the algorithm is built to be highly flexible. It can fit any ticker and timeframe, as well as market environment.
Also included in the chart above is a $1.25 commission per contract, and a tick of slippage (which on average is about right for automated trading on ES).
Swingtrading
kaptanFantastik[Take Profit and Stop Loss Finder]Hello all,
It's ATR based active take profit & stop loss finder.
You can set multipliers for taking profit and stop losing and you can change the price source for the calculation. Also, you can change the ATR level.
Defaults are my best settings. 2.2x for taking profit and 1.5x for stop losing. Open price is the source. Also, I think 5 ATR is the best for day and swing trade.
Levels are determined according to the open prices (This is because we can enter the position after our other indicators give the signal following the close price. Yet, you can change it). Since it's active and based on my calculation with ATR values, percentages for the taking profits and stop losing may change. Because of this, you need to note the take profit and stop lose prices after your entry price level is determined by the other indicators for the best success rates.
It can be used in any time frame with the other indicators to determine the best entry points. For example, 3 EMA levels with 5,8 and 13 is good option for the entry. You can enter the position when 5 crosses up 8 and both are above the 13. You can also use custom more advanced buy/sell indicators with this one for entry points.
It can be used with any asset from cryptocurrency to the stocks, from forex to gold etc.
Hint: You can set your levels lower than the take profit prices to maximize the success rate.
Note: Market should be open for the positions.
Example trade on the 5-minute timeline.
The below chart has both my custom indicator and the 3 EMAs mentioned above.
Trade 1: Entry price: 19191, Take Profit: 19276. Profit 0.44%
Trade 2: Entry price: 19189, Take Profit: 193009. Profit 0.625%
Türkçe bilen kullanıcılar için açıklama
Herkese merhabalar,
ATR tabanlı aktif kar al ve zararı durdur bulucu.
Kar almak ve zararı kesmek için çarpanlar belirleyebilir ve hesaplama için fiyat kaynağı değiştirebilirsiniz. Ayrıca, ATR seviyesini de değiştirebilirsiniz.
Varsayılanlar benim en iyi ayarlarım. Kar almak için 2,2 kat ve zararı durdurmak için 1,5 kat. Açılış, fiyat kaynağıdır. Ayrıca, 5 ATR'nin günlük ve kısa vade (swing trade) için en iyisi olduğunu düşünüyorum.
Seviyeler açılış fiyatına göre belirlenir (Çünkü diğer göstergelerimiz kapanış fiyatının ardından sinyal verdikten sonra pozisyona girebiliyoruz. Yine de bunu değiştirebilirsiniz). Aktif olduğu için ve ATR değerleri ile yaptığım hesaplamaya göre kar alma ve zarar kes yüzdeleri değişebilir. Bu nedenle, en iyi başarı oranları için; giriş fiyat seviyeniz diğer göstergeler tarafından belirlendikten sonra kar al ve zararı durdur fiyatlarını not etmeniz gerekir.
En iyi giriş noktalarını belirlemek için diğer göstergelerle herhangi bir zaman diliminde kullanılabilir. Örneğin, 5,8 ve 13 ile 3 EMA seviyesi giriş için iyi bir seçenektir. 5, 8'i geçtiğinde ve her ikisi de 13'ün üzerinde olduğunda pozisyona girebilirsiniz. Giriş noktaları için bununla birlikte daha gelişmiş özel al/sat göstergelerini de kullanabilirsiniz.
Kripto paradan hisse senetlerine, forexten altına vb. her türlü varlıkla kullanılabilir.
İpucu: Başarı oranını en üst düzeye çıkarmak için seviyelerinizi kar alma fiyatlarından daha düşük ayarlayabilirsiniz.
Not: Pozisyonlar için piyasa açık olmalıdır.
5 dakikalık zaman çizilgesinde örnek işlem.
Yukarıdaki örnek grafikte hem özel indikatörüm hem de yukrıda belirtilen 3 EMA var.
İşlem 1: Giriş fiyatı: 19191, Kazanç Al: 19276. Kar %0.44
İşlem 2: Giriş fiyatı: 19189, Kazanç Al: 193009. Kar %0.625
StockBee MB BullishStockBee Bullish Momentum Burst & 20% Plus Study Tool
The Stockbee bullish momentum burst study tool is helpful for practitioners of the momentum burst method who want to easily find historical momentum bursts and/or 20% plus gainers using Trading View. This script finds three specific breakouts that meet the below criteria:
4% Breakouts (Colors Candle Body)
1. Volume of the candle is greater than the previous candle volume.
2. The percent change of candle's price is greater than 4% from the previous candle close.
3. Current candle close is less than 30% from candle's high.
**Users can toggle 4% Breakouts on/off and also change candle body color in settings**
Dollar Breakouts (Colors Candle Body)
1. The change of candle's price is greater than $0.90 from the previous candle close.
2. Current candle close is less than 30% from candle's high.
** Dollar Breakout does not take volume into consideration **
**Users can toggle Dollar Breakouts on/off and also change candle body color in settings**
20% Plus Gainers (Displays Yellow Triangle Icon)
1. The change over five candles is greater than 20%.
**Users can toggle 20% plus label on/off, cannot change the label color**
This script also filters out any candle that gaps up and breaks down with a close above 4% the previous candle (Eliminates gap-ups that fade). This tool is meant to find and filter possible candidates. Not every marked candle is a great momentum burst trade. Users can look at 4% Breakouts, Dollar Breakouts, 20% Plus Gainers individually or any combination of the three.
This is helpful for Trading View users trading this specific setup.
Round Numbers Breakouts Smart Formula Signals and AlertsThis indicator uses Round Numbers breakouts and then uses smart formula with the near Round Numbers to determine best TP (take profit)/SL (stop loss) areas. Furthermore, it calculates win percentage, shows in-profit/in-loss peaks and the price amount result over a customizable date range, which when combined well with the smart formula provides decent profitable outcome. I have decided to write my own backtesting engine as the integrated TradingView strategy one has limitations and has shown inconsistencies when compared to manual backtesting…
There are many settings you can manually change to trade any instrument, any style, any approach and there are presets included for Bitcoin(BTCUSD), FOREX(EURUSD), SPY(S&P500), so you can start trading immediately! Alerts correspond to indicator settings and are turned on with a few clicks. There are 3 tables (each can be shown/hidden) showing everything you need to see/know to calibrate the indicator as you wish.
Labels, lines, tables explanations (everything can be hidden/shown):
- LONG Labels: medium-green: position open, dark-green: SL, bright-green: TP, blue: TP2
- SHORT Labels: medium-red: position open, dark-red: SL, bright-red: TP, purple: TP2
- Gray circles: position entry area | Yellow crosses: SL area
- Green line: Long TP1, Blue line: Long TP2 | Red Line: Short TP1, Purple line: Short TP2
- Grey lines: Round Numbers (customized via “Round Number up/down measure unit” input)
- Yellow labels at end of each week: end of week OVERALL total results
- Red colored background: power segment
- 3 tables: 1) INFO | STATS, 2) SPY Options Calculator, 3) Indicator Settings
If you decide to fully customize the indicator yourself, on the very top - under “PRESETS” select “MANUAL”! NOTE: If you select any of the pre-set presets, only GLOBAL settings can be changed, the rest of the settings will be “frozen” until you switch it to “MANUAL”!
- Global Settings are self-explanatory and mainly observational, show/hide, etc.
- Manual TP2 (Multi-Take-Profit) Settings:
>>>>> Include TP2 System? Turn on/off multi-profit system, with this unchecked, every trade will either end with SL or with TP1.
>>>>> TP2 System: NEAREST/FORMULA, NEAREST – after TP1 is taken > next TP2 will be a round number price target nearest to where TP1 was taken (sometimes it can be very near, sometimes further away…), FORMULA – 2nd round number price target will be optimally selected based on the distance behind and ahead of TP1 area. For TP2 – FORMULA would be the most logical choice as with multi-take-profit setting turned on – you’d want to ride it out as far as possible.
>>>>> TP1/TP2 division type: 1) Each price target (TP1, TP2) will be ½ of the position 2) TP1 will be 2/3 of the position and TP2 will be the remaining 1/3.
>>>>> TP2 hit type: “close” > candle has to close on top/crossing the price target line, “touch” > once candle touches the price target – you will be immediately alerted to take the partial profit (if you will use such setting – you will need to take the partial profits as soon as you receive the alert.
>>>>> TP1 > Back to Entry hit type: similar to TP2, “close” > candle close, “touch” > candle touch. Please note: this is a very tricky setting as if you use “close” option – your profitable trade may become a loss if a huge candle will close against your position eliminating your TP1 profit, however often the price will touch and cross the entry area to only bounce and continue with your position direction for even bigger profits… so experiment with the date range results to see what works best for your instrument/setting/strategy.
>>>>> TP2 count towards trades count: this can be a bit confusing, but it is simply how should TP2 be treated towards trades count. The indicator will show you Win Percentage and Win % is obtained from winning trades count divided by total trades count. While TP2 is not “a new trade”, it expands the profit of the trade. This is an experimental setting to count TP2 as the whole winning trade, ½ of a trade, or not count it at all.
- Manual Signals/TP1 Settings:
>>>>> TP1/TP2 offset: this one is really cool, with this feature you can hunt these conditions when the price comes very near the profit target area, but never touches it. With this setting turned on and with a good offset amount – you will be able to catch these for TP1 and TP2!
>>>>> TP1/TP2 offset amount: just what the title says, please be careful with this as this number varies significantly depending on the instrument you will be trading. Examples: 1) For SPY 0.1 would be $0.10 offset - if TP1 is $400 and price hits $399.90 > TP1 considered taken/signal shown/alert) | 2) For EURUSD, it is very different and if wrong will show TP1 immediately at position open, typical good offset for EURUSD is: 0.0005 | 3) For BTCUSD, 10 - $10 offset, if TP is $15,000 > $14,990, etc.
>>>>> Round Number up/down measure unit (in dollars $): this one is very important if you will be using “MANUAL” selection to build your own setup as it is very different for every instrument. For SPY, round numbers are single dollars or even half-dollar 50 cent numbers: 1 or 0.5 (350, 351, 352, etc. or 350.50, 351, 351.50, 352, etc.), while for Bitcoin (BTCUSD) a single unit ($1) is too small to be a round number as Bitoin moves much faster and wider every second and it would have to be at least 50 ($50) to make sense. Similar for FOREX (EUR/USD) a single 1 unit ($1) will be too big as EURUSD will never move a whole $1 in 15 minutes or even a day.. and would have to be something like 1.05500. You can easily determine if this number makes sense for your instrument by observing the grey Round Number lines which will correspond based on this setting. You can also visually observer if the price of the instrument appreciates these round numbers.
>>>>> Close Position Before Market Closes: just what the title says. Indicator will close the position 15 minutes before market closes (US session), update backtesting stats, alert you.
>>>>> Close Position Before Power Hour: 3PM – 4PM ET is the last hour of US trading session, where sudden move in any direction can happen with huge volatility, while sometimes nothing will happen at all… Many try to avoid it, so if you wish to avoid it as well - turn this on and it will alert you to close your positions 15 minutes before Power Hour starts, backtesting/stats will be adjusted accordingly.
>>>>> Skip OVERSIZED candles in signals: turn on this setting to skip signals, which happen to fall on big candles. This is basically a protection from huge volatility moves, which usually happen during financial news/events and if you are not a fan of these – you can set this option for indicator to not open anything based on the candle size.
>>>>> Color OVERSIZED candles: this will help you calibrate the size of the OVERSIZED candles if you decide to use this setting and overall visually see them.
>>>>> OVERSIZED candle size: OVERSIZED candle size must be input as it varies significantly. Please note: for each instrument – the size number is completely different, as for SPY: 2 would mean any candle bigger than $2 distance will be considered OVERSIZED, for Bitcoin it would have to be several hundred dollars, like 400-500. For FOREX, this would have to be a decimal, for EURUSD something like 0.0005. It’s best to experiment visually with this setting depending on the instrument you will be trading while setting up the size. To see a typical huge unusual candle – look up financial calendar for something like FOMC meeting, then measure the candle input it into this setting.
>>>>> OVERSIZED candle size calculation type: this is just more flexibility for your preference. If you wish to calculate the size of the candle based on the open/close – select “BODY”, if you wish to use high/low – select “STICKS (from tip to tip)”. Hard to say which one is better, so it is up to you to decide.
>>>>> Include EMA in signal formula: LONG signals will only be shown only if above EMA, SHORT if below EMA. EMA length is of course customizable in below.
>>>>> Skip opposite candle types in signals: signals where the candle color confirms the direction of the trade, but the candle type is opposite (like a green colored bearish hammer for example) will be avoided (such candles can be very uncertain/deceptive).
>>>>> Skip doji: signals where the signal candle is doji (uncertain) will be avoided.
>>>>> TP1 hit type/system: same thing as TP2 hit type/system.
>>>>> SL hit type/system: same as TP1 and TP2 types/systems.
>>>>> Intraday Session Signals Active Time in ET: time range during the day when indicator will show signals (open trades, alert you, etc.). This is specifically for intraday trading. You can turn it off completely by selecting a BLANK option.
>>>>> Intraday TP/SL Active Time in ET: same as above, but for taking profits/stop losses.

Stockbee Momentum BurstThis is a script to color code bars based on the bullish- and bearish combination.
Bullish Combination
Percent: Price >= 4% from yesterday and Volume today > Yesterday
Dollar: Price >= 0.9 dollar from open
Base Requirements
- Price > Yesterday's close
- Price > Open
- Price is within 30% of high
- Todays price range >= Yesterdays price range
- Yesterday's move <= 2%
- Volume >= 100 000
Bearish Combination
Percent: Price <= 4% from yesterday and Volume today > Yesterday
Dollar: Price <= 0.9 dollar from open
Base Requirements
- Price < Yesterday's close
- Price < Open
- Price is within 30% of low
- Todays price range >= Yesterdays price range
- Yesterday's move >= -2%
- Minimum volume for each of last 3 days >= 100 000
Momentum Filter
These are based on the 10 and 20 EMA crossover, where the former above would indicate upward momentum and below downward momentum. This can help to narrow down the color code to continuation phases. The linked option will override all other momentum filters, bullish candles will be displayed when EMA 10 > 20 and bearish candles when EMA 10 < 20.
Simple SuperTrend Strategy for BTCUSD 4HHello guys!, If you are a swing trader and you are looking for a simple trend strategy, you should check this one. Based in the supertrend indicator, this strategy will help you to catch big movements in BTCUSD 4H and avoid losses as much as possible in consolidated situations of the market
This strategy was designed for BTCUSD in 4H timeframe
Backtesting context: 2020-01-02 to 2023-01-05 (The strategy has also worked in previous years)
Trade conditions:
Rules are actually simple, the most important thing is the risk and position management of this strategy
For long:
Once Supertrend changes from a downtrend to a uptrend, you enter into a long position. The stop loss will be defined by the atr stop loss
The first profit will be of 0.75 risk/reward ratio where half position will be closed. When this happens, you move the stop loss to break even.
Now, just will be there two situations:
Once Supertrend changes from a uptrend to a downtrend, you close the other half of the initial long position.
If price goes againts the position, the position will be closed due to breakeven.
For short:
Once Supertrend changes from a uptrend to a downtrend, you enter into a short position. The stop loss will be defined by the atr stop loss
The first profit will be of 0.75 risk/reward ratio where half position will be closed. When this happens, you move the stop loss to break even.
Like in the long position, just will be there two situations:
Once Supertrend changes from a downtrend to a uptrend, you close the other half of the initial short position.
If price goes againts the position, the position will be closed due to breakeven.
Risk management
For calculate the amount of the position you will use just a small percent of your initial capital for the strategy and you will use the atr stop loss for this.
Example: You have 1000 usd and you just want to risk 2,5% of your account, there is a long signal at price of 20,000 usd. The stop loss price from atr stop loss is 19,000. You calculate the distance in percent between 20,000 and 19,000. In this case, that distance would be of 5,0%. Then, you calculate your position by this way: (initial or current capital * risk per trade of your account) / (stop loss distance).
Using these values on the formula: (1000*2,5%)/(5,0%) = 500usd. It means, you have to use 500 usd for risking 2.5% of your account.
We will use this risk management for apply compound interest.
Script functions
Inside of settings, you will find some utilities for display atr stop loss, supertrend or positions.
You will find the settings for risk management at the end of the script if you want to change something. But rebember, do not change values from indicators, the idea is to not over optimize the strategy.
If you want to change the initial capital for backtest the strategy, go to properties, and also enter the commisions of your exchange and slippage for more realistic results.
Signals meanings:
L for long position. CL for close long position.
S for short position. CS for close short position.
Tp for take profit (it also appears when the position is closed due to stop loss, this due to the script uses two kind of positions)
Exit due to break even or due to stop loss
Some things to consider
USE UNDER YOUR OWN RISK. PAST RESULTS DO NOT REPRESENT THE FUTURE.
DEPENDING OF % ACCOUNT RISK PER TRADE, YOU COULD REQUIRE LEVERAGE FOR OPEN SOME POSITIONS, SO PLEASE, BE CAREFULL AND USE CORRECTLY THE RISK MANAGEMENT
The amount of trades closed in the backtest are not exactly the real ones. If you want to know the real ones, go to settings and change % of trade for first take profit to 100 for getting the real ones. In the backtest, the real amount of opened trades was of 194.

Futures SignalThis is a Futures Signal Indictor works using support & resistance and market trend, it is designed for all type of markets (crypto, forex, stock etc.) and works on all commonly used timeframes (preferably on 5 Min, 15 Min Candles).
How it works Futures Signal Indictor :
Core logic behind this indicator is to finding the Support and Resistance , we find the Lower High (LH) and Higher Low (HL) to find the from where the price reversed (bounced back) and also we use a custom logic for figuring out the peak price in the last few candles. Based on the multiple previous Support and Resistance (HH, HL, LL LH) we calculate a price level, this price level is used a major a factor for entering the trade. Once we have the price level we check if the current price crosses that price level, if it crossed then we consider that as a long/short entry (based on whether it crosses resistance or support line that we calculated). Once we have pre long/short signals we further filter it based on the market trend to prevent too early/late signals. Along with this if we don't see a clear trend we do the filtering by checking how many support or resistance level the price has bounced off.
Stop Loss and Take Profit: We have also added printing SL and TP levels on the chart to make the it easier for everyone to find the SL/TP values. Script calculates the SL value by checking the previous support level for LONG trade and previous resistance level for SHORT trades. Take profit are calculated in 0.5 ratio as of now.
EMA Dashboard ChartStoryEMA Dashboard indicator is used for finding corrective during real time as well as where is taking support. It shows multiple timeframe along with multiple ema. From 5 mints charts to monthly chart and from 20 sma to 200 ema . So one can easily capture the price on different timeframe at single dashboard.
Swing Oscillator [AstrideUnicorn]The Swing Oscillator is an indicator that can help you catch small price movements, called swings. Swings are minor trends that occur when price moves between the highs and lows of a trend or range. Because of the short-term nature of swings, a new movement should be identified as soon as possible.
The indicator is based on our original formula, which averages the length of candlestick bodies and compares the result to several thresholds. This allows the algorithm to determine the direction and strength of the price movement.
HOW TO USE
When the indicator is above the zero level and colored green, it means that the price is in an upward swing. When the indicator is below the zero level and colored red, the price is in a downward swing. When the indicator is blue, the price swing is slowing down or the market is moving sideways. The amplitude of the oscillator shows the price volatility.
Mastering Market Structure"Market structure first, always" - Mr. Anderson aka TrueCrypto28 right before he went on to master Kung-Fu
Understanding and identifying market structure is essential for successful and consistent profitability. No system is perfect, but trading in the direction of the prevailing market structure can reduce the likelihood of being caught severely offsides and can yield trades with tighter invalidations and greater risk-to-reward potential.
This script will automatically identify and plot the following:
Market Structure
Pivot highs and lows using the lookback left and right lengths are analyzed to identify major swing highs and lows to identify the current trading range.
Bullish structure is characterized by a series of higher highs and higher lows.
Bearish Structure is characterized by lower highs and lower lows.
Structure breaks when a bar closes outside the current trading range. Major swing highs and lows will update following these breaks to continue following the current price action
Current market structure bias, bullish or bearish, can be displayed in a table in the location of your choosing.
Structure is fractal, so seeing low time frame structure shift against the high time frame structure can identify the beginning of a pullback. When it realigns with the high timeframe structure, it can identify the beginning of the high time frame trend continuation. You can choose to analyze structure on any timeframe with this script and even add multiple copies of it to your chart each analyzing different a timeframes to easily find high quality trade opportunities.
Fibonacci Levels of the current trading range
These are included to help identify areas of interest for trade execution and profit levels.
We want to buy at a discount and sell at a premium. The "Wholesale Zone" can be considered below the 50% retracement level in bullish structure, or above it in a bearish structure.
When in a bullish structure, "discount" buy opportunities can be found below the 50% retracement level with the expectation of trend continuation.
In a bearish structure, more ideal "premium' sell opportunities can be found above the 50% retracement with the expectation of trend continuation.
Optimal trade entry (OTE) zone, between the 61.8% and 78.6% retracement can offer a great risk-to-reward ratio for execution of a new position in trending environments.
When trading sideways in a range, opening new buy positions near the bottom of the range or new sell positions from the top of the range are preferred. Midrange 50% level commonly sees some reaction and can be used as a primary target with further targets either being the opposite end of the range or lower support levels (see order block section).
Order Blocks
New Bullish and bearish order blocks are created and plotted with every respective market structure break. They identify the price level from which the most recent leg of price action that yielded the structure break began.
In strong trending environments, these levels should continue to support or resist price. They are great areas to look to enter new positions.
Order blocks can also be used as targets for your trades to avoid giving back unrealized profits as price tends to react off of these levels.
To keep your chart clean and the order blocks relevant, an order block will be automatically deleted if price trades through and closes beyond it. Otherwise, printed order blocks will remain on your chart until either it's origin bar is out of TradingView's maximum bar history allowance or their maximum box count allowance.
Pairing these with fibonacci levels, retracements into order blocks that are in the Wholesale Zone or even the OTE zone offer higher probability trades with more favorable risk-to-reward potential.
Swing Failure
Swing failure patterns (SFPs) arise when a candle takes out a swing high or low, but fails to close beyond it.
Again, pairing these with other features of this script like range boundaries, wholesale zones, OTE zones, and order blocks can help traders identify the best times to actually execute their trade as SFPs are commonly seen at points of inflection in price action.
Moving Averages
Up to 4 moving averages from the current time frame are available. MA type and lengths can be adjusted to your preference.
Up to 4 MTF MAs. By Default this is an EMA 200 as it is commonly used for trend identification and support/resistance.
These are included for confluence of trend direction and strength.
They can also act as dynamic support and resistance and so can be useful for trade execution if price bounces or rejects off of them or targets as price may do so when it reaches them.
Additionally, alerts have been coded for the following scenarios:
MS Break alerts will trigger on bar close when a break in market structure has been confirmed.
SFP alerts will trigger on bar close when the swing failure pattern has been confirmed.
Entering OB alerts will trigger as soon as price touches the closest order block.
Entering Wholesale Zone alerts will trigger as soon as price cross the 50% retracement level. This can be used as an early alert to identify assets that have undergone a significant pullback before potential continuation in the direction of the main trend.
Entering OTE Zone alerts will trigger as soon as price crosses into the Optimal Trade Entry zone between the 61.8% and 78.6% retracement.
This script is unique in the way that it tracks market structure, automatically updates as price action continues to develop, presents high quality areas of interest, and SFPs for trend reversal and continuation. Traders will no longer need to constantly monitor their charts or exhaustively update their alerts to find good trade opportunities. This script takes care of all of it automatically. Collectively, all of the included features can be used to build a complete trading system.

*** What is "Sniper" Series? ***
"Sniper" series is the project that I’m going to start.
In "Sniper" Series, I’m going to "snipe and shoot" the youtuber’s strategy: to find out whether the youtuber’s video about strategy is "true or false".
Specifically, I’m going to do the things below.
1. Implement "Youtuber’s strategy" into pinescript code.
2. Then I will "backtest" and prove whether "the strategy really works" in the specific ticker (e.g. BTCUSDT) for the specific timeframe (e.g. 5m).
3. Based on the backtest result, I will rate and judge whether the youtube video is "true" or "false", and then rate the validity, reliability, robustness, of the strategy. (like a lie detector)
*** What is the purpose of this series? ***
1. To notify whether the strategy really works for the people who watched the youtube video.
2. To find and build my own scalping / day trading strategy that really works.
**********************************************************************************
*** Strategy Description ***
This strategy is from " QQE MOD + supertrend + ssl hybrid" by korean youtuber "코인투데이".
"코인투데이" claimed that this strategy will make you a lot of money in any crypto ticker in 15 minute timeframe.
### Entry Logic
1. Long Entry Logic
- Super Trend Short -> Long
- close > SSL Hybrid baseline upper k
- QQE MOD should be blue
2. Short Entry Logic
- Super Trend Long -> Short
- close < SSL Hybrid baseline lower k
- QQE MOD should be red
### Exit Logic
1. Long Exit Logic
- Super Trend Long -> Short
2. Short Entry Logic
- Super Trend Short -> Long
### StopLoss
1. Can Choose Stop Loss Type: Percent, ATR, Previous Low / High.
2. Can Chosse inputs of each Stop Loss Type.
### Take Profit
1. Can set Risk Reward Ratio for Take Profit.
- To simplify backtest, I erased all other options except RR Ratio.
- You can add Take Profit Logic by adding options in the code.
2. Can set Take Profit Quantity.
### Risk Manangement
1. Can choose whether to use Risk Manangement Logic.
- This controls the Quantity of the Entry.
- e.g. If you want to take 3% risk per trade and stop loss price is 6% below the long entry price,
then 50% of your equity will be used for trade.
2. Can choose How much risk you would take per trade.
### Plot
1. Added Labels to check the data of entry / exit positions.
2. Changed and Added color different from the original one. (green: #02732A, red: #D92332, yellow: #F2E313)
3. SuperTrend and SSL Hybrid Baseline is by default drawn on the chart.
4. If you check EMA filter, EMA would be drawn on the chart.
5. Should add QQE MOD indicator manually if you want to see QQE MOD.
**********************************************************************************
*** Rating: True or False?
### Rating:
→ 3.5 / 5 (0 = Trash, 1 = Bad, 2 = Not Good, 3 = Good, 4 = Great, 5 = Excellent)
### True or False?
→ True but not a 'perfect true'.
→ It did made a small profit on 15 minute timeframe. But it made a profit so it's true.
→ It worked well in longer timeframe. I think super trend works well so I will work on this further.
### Better Option?
→ Use this for Day trading or Swing Trading, not for Scalping. (Bigger Timeframe)
→ Although the result was not good at 15 minute timeframe, it was quite profitable in 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 1d timeframe.
→ Crypto like BTC, ETH was ok.
→ The result was better when I use EMA filter.
### Robust?
→ Yes. Although result was super bad in 5m timeframe, backtest result was "consistently" profitable on longer timeframe (when timeframe was bigger than 15m, it was profitable).
→ Also, MDD was good under risk management option on.
**********************************************************************************
*** Conclusion?
→ I recommend you not to use this on short timeframe as the youtuber first mentioned.
→ In my opinion, I can use on longer timeframe like 2h or bigger with EMA filter, stoploss and risk management.
EMA + Williams Fractal Pullback [Trading Nerd]EMA Pullback Strategy with Williams Fractal Indicator
Backtesting script that searches for trends (long and short) and a following pullback into the EMAs. It enters on the first Williams Fractal in the desired direction. I found the Strategy on YouTube as a "M1 Scalping Strategy for Bitcoin".
Including fees the strategy is not profitalbe in lower timeframes (at least if not optimized). But it seems to work on higher timeframes as a swing traiding strategy.
Strategy Conditions
Longs:
EMA 1 > EMA 2 and EMA 2 > EMA 3
Number of need to be above the EMA 1
Then a Pullback into the EMAs is required
Enter on the first bullish Williams Fractal
Signal is canceled if the price closes below the EMA 3
Shorts:
EMA 1 < EMA 2 and EMA 2 < EMA 3
Number of need to be below the EMA 1
Then a Pullback into the EMAs is required
Enter on the first bearish Williams Fractal
Singal is canceled if the price closes above the EMA 3
Take Profit
A Risk Reward Take Profit is possible. If you want to use only a trailing Stop Loss, you can set the Take Profit to 'None'
Stop Loss
The default Stop Loss is EMA. If the Pullback has not reached the EMA 2, the Stop Loss is set to the EMA 2. If the Pullback has reached the EMA 2, the Stop Loss is set to the EMA 3.
Other Stop Loss types are available: ATR, HH/LL
Trailing Stop Loss
Available trailing Stop Loss types: ATR, HH/LL. Best practice is to also set the Stop Loss type to the same value.
The Stop Loss is updated if the value from the latest closed candle is greater/less than the previous value for a long/short trade.
Additional
Time Filter: Only opens trade in the defined Session. Open trades are still being closed outside of the Session.
Start Date/End Date: Limits the backtest for the defined Date Range
Trading Days: Only open Trades on the checked Days
Risk % per Trade: If enabled the Strategy uses X% of the capital (defined in Settings -> Properties -> Initial Capital)
Use Compound Interest: If enabled Capital is recalculated for every trade (initial capital + net Profit)
IMPORTANT: For low Timeframes and Markets with tight SL (like Forex) it requires a lower Margin Percent than default. Go to Settings->Properties and lower the required Long/Short Margin. Otherwise Trades might not be considered because of too less capital/marign. Margins can e.g. set to: 2% (Forex), 10% (Stocks), 20% (Crypto).

Scalper RibbonThis Scalper Ribbon is a combination of 6 different oscillators with a sprinkle of secret sauce . It’s smoothed out so it’s easy to read, but is quick enough to catch reversals early and helps you spot divergences. It will turn green or red according to the bullish or bearish nature of the ticker you are viewing without all of the noise that most oscillators give you.
It combines price action, momentum, rsi and a few other oscillators together to give an overall trend strength line that is smoothed out and coupled with a moving average to make it less noisy. Use it as an identifier of the underlying trend so you can make better decisions on scalp trades as well as swing trades on longer timeframes. Wait for the ribbon to break out/down from the middle blue range to avoid chop and get in when price is actually moving.
***HOW TO USE***
Find tops and bottoms of the market by looking for reversals in the ribbon when it is either very high or very low. The white line is the midline and the ribbon is overall bullish when above the midline and overall bearish when below the midline. There are also two blue lines just above and below the midline that is a buffer area I like to call the neutral range. When the ribbon is in the neutral range, expect indecision in the market and look for the ribbon to break out or down from that range for continuation of a trend. The farther away from the neutral range the ribbon is, the stronger the trend is. Take a look at how it performs across multiple timeframes and tickers and get a feel for it before using it in your strategy. It will help you spot reversals early and show you hidden divergences in price action before the reversals happen.
***CUSTOMIZATION***
You can adjust the length of the oscillators and the moving average ribbon to be faster or slower to suit your preferences. The lower the number used, the faster it will detect changes, but the more noise it will have. The higher the number used, the slower it will detect changes, but there will be less noise and easier to follow.
***MARKETS***
This indicator can be used as a signal on all markets, including stocks, crypto, futures and forex.
***TIMEFRAMES***
This Scalper Ribbon indicator can be used on all timeframes.
VWAP BANDS [qrsq]Description
This indicator is used to find support and resistance utilizing both buying and selling volume. It can be used on lower and higher time frames to understand where price is likely to reject or bounce.
How it works
Instead of calculating the VWAP using the total volume, this script estimates the buying/selling volume and respectively calculates their individual VWAP's. The standard deviations of these are then calculated to create the set of two bands. The top bands being the VWAP from buying volume and bottom bands are from selling volume, with the option to use a double band on either pair.
How to use it
I like to use the bands for LTF scalping as well as HTF swings, I also like to use it alongside my SMA VWAP BANDS.
For scalping:
I tend to use either the 5m or 15m TF
I then set the indicator's TF to 1m
I will take a scalp based on the bands confluence with other PA methods, if price is being either supported or rejected.
For swings:
I tend to use a variety of TFs, including: 30m, 1H, 4H, D
I then set the indicator's TF to "Chart"
I will take a swing based on the bands confluence with other PA methods, if price is being either supported or rejected.
I also tend to use them on perpetual contracts as the volume seems to be more consistent and hence results in more accurate support and resistance.
Optimal Confidence Scalper [OCS]Introduction
OCS : Optimal Confidence Scalpers, Utilise the computational approach towards finding confidence estimating in signal generating process, It helps u enter and exit the financial markets quickly, It buy and sell many times in a day with the objective of making consistent profits from incremental movements in the traded security's price. As we all know Lag is very undesirable because a trading system. Late trades can many times be worse than no trades at all, Main aim of the System is to find optimal Entry and Exit points for a successful trade
Mathematics behind the indicator
The indicator use two fundamentals pillars :
Estimation of a Confidence Interval
In frequentist statistics, a confidence interval (CI) is a range of estimates for an unknown parameter. A confidence interval is computed at a designated confidence level; the 95% confidence level is most common, but other levels, such as 90% or 99%, are sometimes used.
Desired properties are Validity, Optimality and Invariance
Polynomial Filters
The polynomial filters are based on the orthogonal polynomials of Legendre and Laguerre. Orthogonal polynomials are widely used in applied mathematics, physics and engineering, and the Legendre and Laguerre polynomials are only two of infinitely many sets, each of which has its own weight function.
They can be characterized in three equivalent ways:
1. They are the optimal lowpass filters that minimize the NRR, subject to additional constraints than the DC unity-gain condition
2. They are the optimal filters that minimize the NRR whose frequency response H(ω) satisfies certain flatness constraints at DC
3. They are the filters that optimally fit, in a least-squares sense, a set of data points to polynomials of different degrees.
The System uses Predictive Differentiation Filters, as subset to Polynomial Filters

RedK Chop & Breakout Scout (C&B_Scout)The RedK Chop & Breakout Scout (C&BS or just CBS) is a centered oscillator that helps traders identify when the price is in a chop zone, where it's recommended to avoid trading or exit existing trades - and helps identify (good & tradeable) price breakouts.
i receive many questions asking for simple ways to identify chops .. Here's one way we can do that.
(This is work in progress - i was exploring with the idea, and wasn't sure how interesting other may find it. )
Quick Intro:
==================
Quick techno piece: This concept is similar to a Stochastic Oscillator - with the main difference being that we're utilizing units of ATR (instead of a channel width) to calculate the main indicator line - which will then lead to a non-restricted oscillator (rather than a +/- 100%) - given that ATR changes with the underlying and the timeframe, among other variables.
to make this easy, and avoid a lot of technical speak in the next part, :) i created (on the top price panel) the same setup that the C&B Scout represents as a lower-panel indicator.
So as you read below, please look back and compare what C&BS is doing in its lower panel, with how the price is behaving on the price chart.
how this works
========================
- To identify chops and breakouts, we need to first agree on a definition that we will use for these terms.
- for the sake of this exercise, let's agree that the price is in a chop zone, as long as the price is moving within a certain distance from a "price baseline" of choice ( which we can adjust based on the underlying, the volatility, the timeframe, the trading style..etc)
- when the price moves out of that chop zone, we consider this a breakout
- Now not all breakouts are "good" = they need to at least happen in the direction of the longer term trend. In this case, we can apply a long Moving Average to act as a filter - and consider breakouts to be "good" if they are in the same direction as the filter line
- With the above background in mind, we establish a price baseline (as you see on the top panel, this is based on the midline of a Donchian Channel - but we can use other slow moving averages in future versions)
- we will decide how far above/below that baseline is considered to be "chop zone" - we do this in terms of units of Average True Range (ATR) - using ATR here is valuable for so many reasons, most of all, how it adjusts to timeframe and volatility of underlying.
- The C&B Scout line simply calculates how far the price is above/below the baseline in terms of "ATR units". and shows how that value compares to our own definition of a "chop zone"
- so as long as the price is within the chop zone, the CBS line will be inside the shaded area - and when the price "breaks out" of the chop zone, the CBS line will also breakout (or down) from the chop zone.
- C&B Scout will give a visual clue to help take trades in the direction of the prevailing trend - the chop zone is green when the price is in "long mode", as in, the price is above the filter line - and will be red when we are in "short mode" - so the price is below the filter line. in green mode, we should only consider breakouts to the upside, and ignore breakouts to the downside (or breakdowns) - in red mode, we should only consider breakouts to the downside., and ignore the ones to the upside.
- i added some examples of "key actions" on the chart to help explain the approach here further.
Usage & settings Notes:
========================
- even though for many traders this will be a basic concept/setup, i still highly suggest you spend time getting used to how it works/reacts and adjusting the settings to suit your own trading style, timeframe, tolerance, what you trade....etc
- for example, if i am a conservative trader, i may consider any price movement within 1 x ATR above and below the baseline to be in "chop" (ATR Channel width = 2 x ATR) - and i want to only take trades when the price moves outside of that range *and* in the direction of the prevailing trend
- An aggressive trader may use a smaller ATR-based value, say 0.5 x ATR above/below the baseline, as their chop zone.
- A swing trader may use a shorter filter line and focus on the CBS line crossing the 0 line.
- .... and so on.
- Also note that the "tradeable" signal is when the CBS line "exits" the chop zone (upward on green background, or downward on red background) - however, an aggressive trader may take the crossing of the CBS line with the 0 line as the signal to open a trade.
- As usual please do not use this indicator "in isolation" and ensure you have other confirming signals from your setups before trading.
conclusion
===========
As i mentioned, this is really a simple concept - and i'm a big fan of those :) -- and there's so much that could be done to expand around it (add more visuals/colors, add alerts, add options for ATR calculation, Filter line calculations, baseline..etc) - but with this v1.0, i wanted to share this initially and see how much interest and how valuable fellow traders find it, before playing any further with it. so please be generous with your comments.
SMA VWAP BANDS [qrsq]Description
This indicator is used to find support and resistance utilizing both SMA and VWAP. It can be used on lower and higher time frames to understand where price is likely to reject or bounce.
How it works
Rather than using the usual calculation for the VWAP, instead this script smooths the volume first with the SMA and then respectively calculates the smoothed multiplication of high, low and close price with the volume individually. These values are then divided by the smoothed volume to find individual VWAP's for each of the sources. The standard deviations of these are calculated, resulting in an upper, lower and middle band. It is essentially VWAP bands with some smoothed calculations in the middle.
How to use it
I like to use the bands for LTF scalping as well as HTF swings.
For scalping:
I tend to use either the 5m or 15m TF
I then set the indicator's TF to 1m
I will take a scalp based on the bands confluence with other PA methods, if price is being either supported or rejected.
For swings:
I tend to use a variety of TFs, including: 30m, 1H, 4H, D
I then set the indicator's TF to "Chart"
I will take a swing based on the bands confluence with other PA methods, if price is being either supported or rejected.
I also tend to use them on perpetual contracts as the volume seems to be more consistent and hence results in more accurate support and resistance.
Simple Swing with T3MAThis indicator is based on T3 Moving Average , which was first described in the January 1998 issue of the " Stocks & Commodities " journal in the article " Smoothing Techniques For More Accurate Signals " by Tim Tillson.
The T3 Moving Average was developed in the search for a “perfect” moving average, which would have 2 characterictics:
Smooth (not sensitive to random noise in the underlying price)
Would not lag behind the price
The smoothness of a filter could be improved by running it through itself multiple times, at the cost of increasing the phase lag. So, we choose a moving average with a very minimal lag (Generalized DEMA), & run it through itself multiple times to get a smoother version with with minimal lag (T3 MA). The problem with multiple runs though these filters increase their tendency to overshoot the data, giving an unusable result. To solve this problem, we need to simply turn down the volume by using a volume factor less than 1. Using a value for v less than 1, & running GDEMA (Generalized DEMA) through itself multiple times we get a new, smoother moving average (T3) that does not overshoot the data:
T3(n) = GDEMA(GDEMA (GDEMA(n)))
Traditionally, the entry is mainly done by crossovers between a fast and a slow moving average (MA). When the fast MA crosses up the slow MA, the trader takes it as a buy signal. Similarly, when the fast MA crosses down the slow MA, we get a sell signal. These traditional signals are lagging .
In the Simple Swing Strategy, we propose the Early Upswing (E0) & Early Downswing (Ex) terminologies. The Early Upswing starts when the T3 ribbon is red (i.e. Fast T3MA is lesser than slow T3MA), but the price has closed above the ribbon. This is the E0 candle. Similarly, the Early Downswing starts when the T3 ribbon is green (i.e. Fast T3MA is greater than slow T3MA), but the price has closed below the ribbon. This is the Ex candle.
The long entry (or the short exit) is taken once the price closes above the red ribbon.
The long exit (or the short entry) is taken once the price closes below the green ribbon.
Thereafter, the color of the ribbon confirms the swings. When we have the green ribbon, we are in a Confirmed upswing . When we have the red ribbon, we are in a Confirmed downswing .
p.s. It should be noted that the terms “swing” & “trend” are not interchangable. You can have an upswing in a downtrend, & a downswing in an uptrend. An upswing in an uptrend is the most reliable environment for long positions, & vice versa.

Scot Signal IndicatorThe Scot Signal Indicator is intended as a Scalping Resource. It was designed to work best on the ❗❗ 5 MINUTE CHART with Bitcoin ❗❗ / USD & USDT pairs.
🟡🔼🔽 Yellow Triangles : these are pre-signals. If the triangle is Pointing Down, then look for a possible Short to come, and vice-versa for Upward facing triangles will go Long.
* Be careful, this is a Canary in the Coal Mine, but not the full signal. Going purely on the triangle as a signal could lead to fake-outs more frequently.
🟩 🟥 Green & Red Boxes : these are "Long" & "Short" signals where the indicator feels the time is safe to enter a trade.
❗ EXITING THE TRADE ❗ : this is a scalping indicator, specifically meant for entering trades, NOT EXITING them. An ideal scalp is $100 - $200 Bitcoin move. Though, we run bots using this indicator, taking scalps as little
as $60, performing up to 8 trades a day.
LNL Pullback ArrowsBuying the dip has never been easier! LNL Pullback Arrows are here to pinpoint the best possible entries for the trend following setups. With the Pullback Arrows, trader can pick his own approach and risk level thanks to four different types of arrows. The goal of these arrows is to force the traders to scale in & out of trades which is in my opinion crucial when it comes to trend following strategies. These arrows were designed primarily for the daily & weekly time frame (swing trading).
Four Types of Pullback Arrows:
1. Aggro Arrows - Ideal for aggresive approach during parabolic trends. Sometimes trends are so strong that the price barely revisits the daily 8 EMA. This is where the aggro arrows can perfectly pinpoint the aggresive high risk entries. Ideal for halfsize or 1/4 size of the full position. Aiming for quick 1-2 day moves targeting the recent high/low. These arrows could be also named as scalping arrows for the swing traders. A quick In & Out.
2. HalfSize Arrows - Medium risk approach. First arrows to scale in. HalfSize arrows are the first sign that the pullback might be ending, yet there is still some space left for an even deeper pullback. That is the reason why they are called half-size. Ideally taken with half-sized position. When trading the HalfSize Arrows, It is better to have some "spare ammo in the gun" ready to use.
3. FullSize Arrows - Regular risk approach. These arrows represent a zone where the core of the posititon should be taken. The point of validity for the trend is not that far away, meaning the risk can be kept tight. Ideal for scailing the other halfs or quarters of the full position. Also great for more conservative traders or environments with higher volatility.
4. Rare Arrows - Offer the best risk to reward entries during the trend. Rare Arrows should be the "last kick" of the retracement, therefore stops can be positioned really tight. They either trigger the stop immidiately or they provide another juicy leg up or down in the direction of the trend. However, they really do appear rarely.
Simple EMA Cloud:
A simple cloud based on 21 and 55 exponential moving averages. This default length creates a pullback zone that is wide enough for the conservative traders but also give the opportunities to more aggresive traders. Alternatives such as 8 & 21, or 21 & 34 are forming the zone that is too aggresive and usually too thin. Of course, cloud can be fully adjusted or turned off completely. The only role of the cloud is to gauge the trend.
Tips & Tricks:
1.Importance of the Scailing
- As already stated, scailing is crucial to this since there is no way of knowing the exact level at which the price magically bounce every time. It is hard to tell where and which EMA will be respected. How can we know it will be 21 EMA every time? or 34 EMA or 10 EMA or 100 SMA or 50 DMA ... Single MA does not make a trend. This is the reason why scailing is so important. Scailing can make a difference.
2. Nothing is Perfect
- Same as any other study, nothing works 100% perfectly. Sometimes the setup will go right against you and sometimes the price will fade away sideways and breaks off the structure of the trend. This is not a magic certainty tool. This is just another probability tool.
3. Point of Validity & Other Studies
- Even though the pullback arrows can be a stand-alone strategy. It is important to use other indicators that visualize the actual trend. Whether its EMA Cloud or EMAs or DMI Bars or Keltner Channels, there should be something that validates the trend, something that tells the trend is over. (Pullback Arrows are not showing the actual stops!).
Hope it helps.

Infiten's Return Candle OscillatorInfiten's Return Candle Oscillator is an oscillator which shows the percentage return on the open, high, close and low over a customizable period in the form of candlesticks. It may be helpful for seeing volatility, swing trading, or mean reversion trading.
The RCO consists of two plotted elements :
RCO Candles (short length): candlesticks which are plotted with low = the product of the percentage changes in the low over a period, high = the product of the percentage changes in the high over a period, close = the product of the percent changes in close over a period, and open = the product of the percentage changes in return over a period. Similarly to with standard candlesticks, if the percentage change on the close is higher than the percentage change on the open, the candlestick is green, otherwise it is red.
Smoothed RCO Line (long length) : a moving average of the average of the low, close, open and high calculated for the RCO Candles. The line's transparency is determined by the percentage difference between the RCO and the highest or lowest RCO over the long length. A more transparent line means that the RCO is closer to the highest or lowest RCO, and may be indicative of a reversal, or weakening trend.
