SMA + RSI + Volume + ATR StrategySMA + RSI + Volume + ATR Strategy
1. Indicators Used:
SMA (Simple Moving Average): This is a trend-following indicator that calculates the average price of a security over a specified period (50 periods in this case). It's used to identify the overall trend of the market.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): This measures the speed and change of price movements. It tells us if the market is overbought (too high) or oversold (too low). Overbought is above 70 and oversold is below 30.
Volume: This is the amount of trading activity. A higher volume often indicates strong interest in a particular price move.
ATR (Average True Range): This measures volatility, or how much the price is moving in a given period. It helps us adjust stop losses and take profits based on market volatility.
2. Conditions for Entering Trades:
Buy Signal (Green Up Arrow):
Price is above the 50-period SMA (indicating an uptrend).
RSI is below 30 (indicating the market might be oversold or undervalued, signaling a potential reversal).
Current volume is higher than average volume (indicating strong interest in the move).
ATR is increasing (indicating higher volatility, suggesting that the market might be ready for a move).
Sell Signal (Red Down Arrow):
Price is below the 50-period SMA (indicating a downtrend).
RSI is above 70 (indicating the market might be overbought or overvalued, signaling a potential reversal).
Current volume is higher than average volume (indicating strong interest in the move).
ATR is increasing (indicating higher volatility, suggesting that the market might be ready for a move).
3. Take Profit & Stop Loss:
Take Profit: When a trade is made, the strategy will set a target price at a certain percentage above or below the entry price (1.5% in this case) to automatically exit the trade once that target is hit.
Stop Loss: If the price goes against the position, a stop loss is set at a percentage below or above the entry price (0.5% in this case) to limit losses.
4. Execution of Trades:
When the buy condition is met, the strategy will enter a long position (buying).
When the sell condition is met, the strategy will enter a short position (selling).
5. Visual Representation:
Green Up Arrow: Appears on the chart when the buy condition is met.
Red Down Arrow: Appears on the chart when the sell condition is met.
These arrows help you see at a glance when the strategy suggests you should buy or sell.
In Summary:
This strategy uses a combination of trend-following (SMA), momentum (RSI), volume, and volatility (ATR) to decide when to buy or sell a stock. It looks for opportunities when the market is either oversold (buy signal) or overbought (sell signal) and makes sure there’s enough volume and volatility to back up the move. It also includes take-profit and stop-loss levels to manage risk.
LevelUp^ Upside Reversal ScreenerThe Upside Reversal Screener can be helpful to find strength when stocks have been showing weakness or the overall market is down. An upside reversal in a stock occurs when its price, after declining, changes direction and begins to trend upward. This pattern can signify a shift in market sentiment from bearish to bullish.
🔹 Upside Reversal Characteristics
✓ Price goes below prior day/week low then rallies to close with a gain or a minimal loss.
✓ Closing range in the upper half of the day/week.
✓ Ideally, volume shows an increase over the average daily/weekly volume.
🔹 Configurable Settings
✓ Specify the number of lower lows.
✓ Require the price low to be above a configurable moving average.
✓ Require the moving average to be trending up.
✓ Specify price % change.
✓ Specify closing range.
✓ Limit search to specific symbol types, for example, only stocks and no ETFs.
🔹 Pros of an Upside Reversal
An upside reversal can provide an early entry point into a potential new uptrend. The reversal may attract buyers, resulting in sustained upward price momentum. Reversals that follow a prolonged downtrend suggest the end of bearish dominance, which may give way to a longer-term bullish trend.
🔹 Cons of an Upside Reversal
Not all reversals continue their upward trend; some may turn out to be "dead cat bounces" or a short-term retracement before the downtrend resumes. It can also be challenging to know when to enter a trade on a reversal as entering too early might lead to losses if price reverses and the downtrend continues.
🔹 Risk Management
One common approach to risk management is to use a recent low as a stop. Another potential stop would be an area of prior support or consolidation. It often feels counterintuitive to enter a trade when the trend has been downward. Which speaks to why risk management must always be part of your game plan.

Multi-Timeframe RSI Grid Strategy with ArrowsKey Features of the Strategy
Multi-Timeframe RSI Analysis:
The strategy calculates RSI values for three different timeframes:
The current chart's timeframe.
Two higher timeframes (configurable via higher_tf1 and higher_tf2 inputs).
It uses these RSI values to identify overbought (sell) and oversold (buy) conditions.
Grid Trading System:
The strategy uses a grid-based approach to scale into trades. It adds positions at predefined intervals (grid_space) based on the ATR (Average True Range) and a grid multiplication factor (grid_factor).
The grid system allows for pyramiding (adding to positions) up to a maximum number of grid levels (max_grid).
Daily Profit Target:
The strategy has a daily profit target (daily_target). Once the target is reached, it closes all open positions and stops trading for the day.
Drawdown Protection:
If the open drawdown exceeds 2% of the account equity, the strategy closes all positions to limit losses.
Reverse Signals:
If the RSI conditions reverse (e.g., from buy to sell or vice versa), the strategy closes all open positions and resets the grid.
Visualization:
The script plots buy and sell signals as arrows on the chart.
It also plots the RSI values for the current and higher timeframes, along with overbought and oversold levels.
How It Works
Inputs:
The user can configure parameters like RSI length, overbought/oversold levels, higher timeframes, grid spacing, lot size multiplier, maximum grid levels, daily profit target, and ATR length.
RSI Calculation:
The RSI is calculated for the current timeframe and the two higher timeframes using ta.rsi().
Grid System:
The grid system uses the ATR to determine the spacing between grid levels (grid_space).
When the price moves in the desired direction, the strategy adds positions at intervals of grid_space, increasing the lot size by a multiplier (lot_multiplier) for each new grid level.
Entry Conditions:
A buy signal is generated when the RSI is below the oversold level on all three timeframes.
A sell signal is generated when the RSI is above the overbought level on all three timeframes.
Position Management:
The strategy scales into positions using the grid system.
It closes all positions if the daily profit target is reached or if a reverse signal is detected.
Visualization:
Buy and sell signals are plotted as arrows on the chart.
RSI values for all timeframes are plotted, along with overbought and oversold levels.
Example Scenario
Suppose the current RSI is below 30 (oversold), and the RSI on the 60-minute and 240-minute charts is also below 30. This triggers a buy signal.
The strategy enters a long position with a base lot size.
If the price moves against the position by grid_space, the strategy adds another long position with a larger lot size (scaled by lot_multiplier).
This process continues until the maximum grid level (max_grid) is reached or the daily profit target is achieved.
Key Variables
grid_level: Tracks the current grid level (number of positions added).
last_entry_price: Tracks the price of the last entry.
base_size: The base lot size for the initial position.
daily_profit_target: The daily profit target in percentage terms.
target_reached: A flag to indicate whether the daily profit target has been achieved.
Potential Use Cases
This strategy is suitable for traders who want to combine RSI-based signals with a grid trading approach to capitalize on mean-reverting price movements.
It can be used in trending or ranging markets, depending on the RSI settings and grid parameters.
Limitations
The grid trading system can lead to significant drawdowns if the market moves strongly against the initial position.
The strategy relies heavily on RSI, which may produce false signals in strongly trending markets.
The daily profit target may limit potential gains in highly volatile markets.
Customization
You can adjust the input parameters (e.g., RSI length, overbought/oversold levels, grid spacing, lot multiplier) to suit your trading style and market conditions.
You can also modify the drawdown protection threshold or add additional filters (e.g., volume, moving averages) to improve the strategy's performance.
In summary, this script is a sophisticated trading strategy that combines RSI-based signals with a grid trading system to manage entries, exits, and position sizing. It includes features like daily profit targets, drawdown protection, and multi-timeframe analysis to enhance its robustnes

MA Crossover with Demand/Supply Zones + Stop Loss/Take ProfitStop Loss and Take Profit Inputs:
Added stopLossPerc and takeProfitPerc as inputs to allow the user to define the stop loss and take profit levels as a percentage of the entry price.
Stop Loss and Take Profit Calculation:
For long positions, the stop loss is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 - stopLossPerc), and the take profit is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 + takeProfitPerc).
For short positions, the stop loss is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 + stopLossPerc), and the take profit is calculated as strategy.position_avg_price * (1 - takeProfitPerc).
Exit Strategy:
Added strategy.exit to define the stop loss and take profit levels for each trade. The from_entry parameter ensures that the exit is tied to the specific entry order.
Flexibility:
The stop loss and take profit levels are dynamic and adjust based on the entry price of the trade.
How It Works:
When a buy signal is generated (MA crossover near a demand zone), the strategy enters a long position and sets a stop loss and take profit level based on the input percentages.
When a sell signal is generated (MA crossunder near a supply zone), the strategy enters a short position and sets a stop loss and take profit level based on the input percentages.
The trade will exit automatically if either the stop loss or take profit level is hit.
Example:
If the entry price for a long position is $100, and the stop loss is set to 1% while the take profit is set to 2%:
Stop loss level =
100
∗
(
1
−
0.01
)
=
100∗(1−0.01)=99
Take profit level =
100
∗
(
1
+
0.02
)
=
100∗(1+0.02)=102
Notes:
You can adjust the stopLossPerc and takeProfitPerc inputs to suit your risk management preferences.
Always backtest the strategy to ensure the stop loss and take profit levels are appropriate for your trading instrument and timeframe.

This indicator creates three visual heatmaps that show how current price movement compares to the average range of different timeframes. It helps traders:
Identify when price moves are overextended
Compare momentum across different timeframes
Spot potential reversal points
Understand the relative strength of price movements
How It Works
Range Calculation:
For each selected timeframe, it calculates an average range based on the specified number of periods
The range is measured from high to low for each period
A moving average of these ranges creates a dynamic "normal" range for that timeframe
Position Calculation:
Measures how far price has moved from the period's opening price
Compares this movement to the average range
Converts the movement into a percentage (-100% to +100%)

Star Pattern IdentifierThe Star Pattern Identifier is a custom TradingView indicator designed to detect and mark Morning Star (MS) and Evening Star (ES) candlestick patterns, which are powerful reversal signals. This indicator offers a flexible and customizable approach by incorporating adjustable parameters for both the size and volume of the third candle in the pattern.
Key Features:
Morning Star (MS) : A bullish reversal pattern that occurs after a downtrend.
Evening Star (ES) : A bearish reversal pattern that occurs after an uptrend.
Adjustable Parameters:
Third Candle Size Multiplier : Define how large the body of the third candle should be relative to the second candle (default is 2x).
Third Candle Volume Multiplier : Control the minimum volume of the third candle in relation to the second candle (default is 0.5x).
The script ensures that the third candle’s volume is at least 50% of the second candle's volume and that its body is at least twice the size of the second candle, to filter out weaker signals.
The patterns are marked directly on the chart with "MS" (Morning Star) or "ES" (Evening Star) labels for easy identification.
Practical Use:
Use this indicator to spot potential trend reversals with more confidence by ensuring strong candlestick body and volume conditions.
Customize the parameters to suit your trading strategy and preferences.
How it Works:
The indicator looks for a bearish first candle , followed by a bullish or indecisive second candle , and a bullish third candle for the Morning Star pattern.
For the Evening Star, the indicator looks for a bullish first candle , followed by a bearish or indecisive second candle , and a bearish third candle .
The size and volume of the third candle are checked to ensure it meets the set parameters, confirming the strength of the reversal signal.
This tool is perfect for traders seeking to spot reversal signals in the market.

2022 Model ICT Entry Strategy [TradingFinder] One Setup For Life🔵 Introduction
The ICT 2022 model, introduced by Michael Huddleston, is an advanced trading strategy rooted in liquidity and price imbalance, where time and price serve as the core elements. This ICT 2022 trading strategy is an algorithmic approach designed to analyze liquidity and imbalances in the market. It incorporates concepts such as Fair Value Gap (FVG), Liquidity Sweep, and Market Structure Shift (MSS) to help traders identify liquidity movements and structural changes in the market, enabling them to determine optimal entry and exit points for their trades.
This Full ICT Day Trading Model empowers traders to pinpoint the Previous Day High/Low as well as the highs and lows of critical sessions like the London and New York sessions. These levels act as Liquidity Zones, which are frequently swept prior to a market structure shift (MSS) or a retracement to areas such as Optimal Trade Entry (OTE).
Bullish :
Bearish :
🔵 How to Use
The ICT 2022 model is a sophisticated trading strategy that focuses on identifying key liquidity levels and price movements. It operates based on two main principles. In the first phase, the price approaches liquidity zones and sweeps critical levels such as the previous day’s high or low and key session levels.
This movement is known as a Liquidity Sweep. In the second phase, following the sweep, the price retraces to areas like the FVG (Fair Value Gap), creating ideal entry points for trades. Below is a detailed explanation of how to apply this strategy in bullish and bearish setups.
🟣 Bullish ICT 2022 Model Setup
To use the ICT 2022 model in a bullish setup, start by identifying the Previous Day High/Low or key session levels, such as those of the London or New York sessions. In a bullish setup, the price usually moves downward first, sweeping the Liquidity Low. This move, known as a Liquidity Sweep, reflects the collection of buy orders by major market participants.
After the liquidity sweep, the price should shift market structure and start moving upward; this shift, referred to as Market Structure Shift (MSS), signals the beginning of an upward trend. Following MSS, areas like FVG, located within the Discount Zone, are identified. At this stage, the trader waits for the price to retrace to these zones. Once the price returns, a long trade is executed.
Finally, the stop-loss should be set below the liquidity low to manage risk, while the take-profit target is usually placed above the previous day’s high or other identified liquidity levels. This structure enables traders to take advantage of the upward price movement after the liquidity sweep.
🟣 Bearish ICT 2022 Model Setup
To identify a bearish setup in the ICT 2022 model, begin by marking the Previous Day High/Low or key session levels, such as the London or New York sessions. In this scenario, the price typically moves upward first, sweeping the Liquidity High. This move, known as a Liquidity Sweep, signifies the collection of sell orders by key market players.
After the liquidity sweep, the price should shift market structure downward. This movement, called the Market Structure Shift (MSS), indicates the start of a downtrend. Following MSS, areas such as FVG, found within the Premium Zone, are identified. At this stage, the trader waits for the price to retrace to these areas. Once the price revisits these zones, a short trade is executed.
In this setup, the stop-loss should be placed above the liquidity high to control risk, while the take-profit target is typically set below the previous day’s low or another defined liquidity level. This approach allows traders to capitalize on the downward price movement following the liquidity sweep.
🔵 Settings
Swing period : You can set the swing detection period.
Max Swing Back Method : It is in two modes "All" and "Custom". If it is in "All" mode, it will check all swings, and if it is in "Custom" mode, it will check the swings to the extent you determine.
Max Swing Back : You can set the number of swings that will go back for checking.
FVG Length : Default is 120 Bar.
MSS Length : Default is 80 Bar.
FVG Filter : This refines the number of identified FVG areas based on a specified algorithm to focus on higher quality signals and reduce noise.
Types of FVG filters :
Very Aggressive Filter: Adds a condition where, for an upward FVG, the last candle's highest price must exceed the middle candle's highest price, and for a downward FVG, the last candle's lowest price must be lower than the middle candle's lowest price. This minimally filters out FVGs.
Aggressive Filter: Builds on the Very Aggressive mode by ensuring the middle candle is not too small, filtering out more FVGs.
Defensive Filter: Adds criteria regarding the size and structure of the middle candle, requiring it to have a substantial body and specific polarity conditions, filtering out a significant number of FVGs.
Very Defensive Filter: Further refines filtering by ensuring the first and third candles are not small-bodied doji candles, retaining only the highest quality signals.
🔵 Conclusion
The ICT 2022 model is a comprehensive and advanced trading strategy designed around key concepts such as liquidity, price imbalance, and market structure shifts (MSS). By focusing on the sweep of critical levels such as the previous day’s high/low and important trading sessions like London and New York, this strategy enables traders to predict market movements with greater precision.
The use of tools like FVG in this model helps traders fine-tune their entry and exit points and take advantage of bullish and bearish trends after liquidity sweeps. Moreover, combining this strategy with precise timing during key trading sessions allows traders to minimize risk and maximize returns.
In conclusion, the ICT 2022 model emphasizes the importance of time and liquidity, making it a powerful tool for both professional and novice traders. By applying the principles of this model, you can make more informed trading decisions and seize opportunities in financial markets more effectively.
VWMA with Buy/Sell Signalshe VWMA (Volume Weighted Moving Average) is a technical indicator that averages prices over a specified period while giving more weight to periods with higher trading volumes. This makes the VWMA more sensitive to price movements during high-volume trading compared to a simple moving average (SMA).
Adding Buy/Sell Signals to a VWMA-based script involves identifying trends or crossover points that indicate potential entry (Buy) or exit (Sell) opportunities.
Core Features of the Script:
VWMA Calculation:
Uses the typical price ((High + Low + Close) / 3) or closing price for computation.
Weighting is based on the volume traded in each period.
