The SamuraiOverview
This strategy implements a session-based range breakout system specifically designed for GBP/JPY trading. The approach focuses on identifying key price ranges during specific market sessions and trading breakouts of these ranges during optimal trading windows. The strategy combines multi-timeframe analysis using 30-minute data with precise session timing to capture high-probability breakout moves.
Entry Logic
The strategy operates on a two-phase approach:
Range Collection Phase:
Monitors price action during a specified session window
Identifies session high and low levels
Only collects ranges on selected trading days
Trading Phase:
Long Entry: Price closes above the established session high
Short Entry: Price closes below the established session low
Entries only occur on valid trading days (day after range collection)
One trade per direction per session to prevent overtrading
Exit Conditions
Stop Loss: Set at a percentage of the session range below entry (long) or above entry (short)
Take Profit: Calculated using a Risk-Reward Ratio based on stop loss distance
Session Close: All positions are closed at the end of the trading window
Risk Management Features
Fixed risk-reward ratio of for consistent risk management
Stop loss calculated as percentage of session range for adaptive sizing
Visual risk/reward boxes display potential outcomes before entry
Daily session close protection prevents overnight exposure
Visual Features
Customizable Colors: Full control over line colors, styles, and box opacities
Risk/Reward Visualization: Color-coded boxes showing potential profit and loss zones
Take Profit Lines: TP level with different line styles for clarity
Stop Loss Line: Clear visual indication of risk level
Clean Interface: Streamlined settings focused on essential visual customization
Important Notes
Timeframe Dependency: Strategy uses 30-minute data regardless of chart timeframe for consistency
Session Timing: All times are in UTC - ensure proper timezone conversion for your location
Trading Days: Default setup trades Tuesday-Friday ranges (Monday-Thursday collection)
Single Position: Only one position per direction per session to maintain discipline
No Pyramiding: Strategy prevents position averaging to maintain clear risk parameters
Suggested Use
Recommended Pairs: Optimized for GBP/JPY but may work on other volatile pairs
Best Timeframes: Display on any timeframe (strategy uses 30m data internally)
Session Awareness: Most effective during high-volatility session transitions
Risk Management: Consider position sizing based on account risk tolerance
Market Conditions: Performs best in trending or breakout market environments
Backtesting Considerations
Strategy includes realistic entry/exit conditions based on closing prices
Visual elements help understand historical performance context
Built-in position management prevents unrealistic results
Session-based logic ensures trades align with actual market sessions
This strategy is designed for traders who prefer systematic, rule-based approaches to breakout trading with clear risk management parameters. The visual feedback helps in understanding market context and decision-making process.
Disclaimer: Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always test thoroughly on historical data and consider your risk tolerance before live trading.

█ Overview
The Opening-Range Breakout strategy is a mechanical, session‑based day‑trading system designed to capture the initial burst of directional momentum immediately following the market open. It defines a user‑configurable “opening range” window, measures its high and low boundaries, then places breakout stop orders at those levels once the range closes. Built‑in filters on minimum range width, reward‑to‑risk ratios, and optional reversal logic help refine entries and manage risk dynamically.
█ How It Works
Opening‑Range Formation
Between 9:30–10:15 AM ET (configurable), the script tracks the highest high and lowest low to form the day’s opening range box.
On the first bar after the range window closes, the range high (OR_high) and low (OR_low) are “locked in.”
Range‑Width Filter
To avoid false breakouts in low‑volatility mornings, the range must be at least X% of the current price (default 0.35%).
If the measured opening-range width < minimum threshold, no orders are placed that day.
Entry & Order Placement
Long: a stop‑buy order at the opening‑range high.
Short: a stop‑sell order at the opening‑range low.
Only one side can trigger (or both if reverse logic is enabled after a losing trade).
Risk Management
Once triggered, each trade uses an ATR‑style stop-loss defined as a percentage retracement of the range (default 50% of range width).
Profit target is set at a configurable Reward/Risk Ratio (default 1.1×).
Optional: Reverse on Stop‑Loss – if the initial breakout loses, immediately reverse into the opposite side on the same day.
Session Exit
Any open positions are closed at the end of the regular trading day (default 3:45 PM ET window end, with hard flat at session close).
Visual cues are provided via green (range high) and red (range low) step‑line plots directly on the chart, allowing you to see the range box and breakout triggers in real time.
█ Why It Works
Early Momentum Capture: The first 15 – 60 minutes of trading encapsulate overnight news digestion and institutional order flow, creating a well‑defined volatility “range.”
Mechanical Discipline: Clear, rule‑based entries and exits remove emotional guesswork, ensuring consistency.
Volatility Filtering: By requiring a minimum range width, the system avoids choppy, low‑range days where false breakouts are common.
Dynamic Sizing: Stops and targets scale with the opening range, adapting automatically to each day’s volatility environment.
█ How to Use

200 SMA (5%/-3% Buffer) for SPY & QQQ In my testing TQQQ is an absolute monster of an ETF that performs extremely well even from a buy and hold standpoint over long periods of time, its largest drawback is the massive drawdown exposure that it faces which can be easily sidestepped with this strategy.
This strategy is meant to basically abuse TQQQ's insane outperformance while augmenting the typical 200SMA strategy in a way that uses all of its strengths while avoiding getting whipsawed in sideways markets.
The strategy BUYS when price crosses 5% over the 200SMA and then SELLS when price drops 3% below the 200SMA. Between trades I'll be parking my entire account in SGOV.
So maximizing profit while minimizing risk.
You use the strategy based off of QQQ and then make the trades on TQQQ when it tells you to BUY/SELL.
Here are some reasons why I will be using this strategy:
Simple emotionless BUY and SELL signals where I don't care who the president is, what is happening in the world, who is bombing who, who the leadership team is, no attachment to individual companies and diversified across the NASDAQ.
~85% win percentage and when it does lose the loses are nothing compared to the wins and after a loss you're basically set up for a massive win in the next trade.
Max drawdown of around 53% when using TQQQ
You benefit massively when the market is doing well and when there is a recession you basically sit in SGOV for a year and then are set up for a monster recovery with a clear easy BUY signal. So as long as you're patient you win regardless of what happens.
The trades are often very long term resulting in you taking advantage of Long Term Capital Gains tax advantage which could mean saving up to 15-20% in taxes.
With only a few trades you can spend time doing other stuff and don't have to track or pay attention to anything that is happening.
Simple, easy, and massively profitable.

PRO Investing - Quant AlphaCentauri D |XLF|PRO Investing - Quant AlphaCentauri D |XLF|
1. Summary and Core Concept
This is a quantitative backtesting strategy engineered specifically for the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLF) on the Daily (1D) timeframe. The name "AlphaCentauri" reflects its goal: to seek alpha by identifying statistically significant opportunities through rigorous time series analysis.
The strategy's core principle is to move beyond conventional technical indicators and instead analyze the underlying structure and character of price data. It is designed to methodically identify conditions that have historically preceded sustained directional trends in the financial sector.
2. The Analytical Process: How It Works
This strategy employs a multi-stage quantitative process to filter for high-probability setups. It is a "mashup" of statistical concepts applied to price action.
Structural Pattern Recognition: The engine's primary function is to analyze the historical price series of XLF to identify specific, recurring structural patterns. It examines price geometry and cyclical behavior to find formations that often act as the foundation for a new, emerging trend.
Signal Execution: A signal to enter a trade is only generated when the findings from both the structural analysis and the validation stages are in agreement. This disciplined, multi-layered approach ensures the strategy remains flat during periods of high uncertainty and only engages when its quantitative criteria are fully met.
3. How to Use This Strategy
Timeframe: This strategy has been designed, tested, and optimized exclusively for the Daily (1D) timeframe on the XLF ticker. Its logic is not intended for other timeframes or assets and may produce unreliable results if used differently.
On-Chart Signals: The strategy's operation is transparent. It plots all historical buy and sell entries, along with their corresponding exits, directly on the chart for easy performance review and analysis.
4. Risk Management: The Strategy's Foundation
This strategy is built upon a foundation of strict, non-negotiable risk management, which is reflected in its code and backtesting parameters. This design complies with TradingView's guidelines for publishing realistic and responsible strategies.
Dynamic Stop-Loss and Position Sizing: A stop-loss is dynamically calculated for each trade based on recent market volatility. The strategy then automatically adjusts the position size for that trade to target a defined risk percentage. In cases of extreme market volatility, the maximum potential loss on a single trade may approach, but is designed not to exceed, 5% of total account equity. Under normal market conditions, the risk for most trades will be below this maximum threshold.
Realistic Backtesting Parameters:
Initial Capital: The backtest defaults to an initial capital of $100,000.
Commission: A realistic fee of $5.00 per order is included to simulate broker costs.
5. Disclaimer
This strategy is an educational tool provided for informational and research purposes. It is not financial advice. All trading carries a high level of risk, and past performance is not a guarantee of future results. You are solely responsible for your own trading decisions and risk management. Always conduct your own due diligence before deploying any trading strategy in a live account.

Strategi FVG 09:31 (Pro)FVG 09:31 Strategy (Pro)
In short, this is an automated trading strategy (bot) for TradingView designed to execute buy or sell orders based on a Fair Value Gap (FVG) pattern. The strategy is highly specific, as it only triggers on the 1-minute timeframe and looks for an FVG that forms precisely at 09:32 AM New York time.
Main Purpose of the Strategy
The primary goal of this script is to identify and capitalize on short-term price imbalances, known as Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). It operates during a specific, high-volatility window right after the U.S. stock market opens, often referred to by traders as the "Silver Bullet" session. By automating the detection and execution, it aims to trade these fleeting opportunities with precision.
How the Strategy Works
The strategy follows a clear, step-by-step logical flow on your chart.
1. Time & Timeframe Restriction
1-Minute Timeframe: The strategy is hard-coded to work only on the 1-minute (1m) chart. A warning label will appear on your chart if you apply it to any other timeframe.
Specific Time Window: The core logic activates only between 09:32 and 09:33 AM New York time. It searches for an FVG pattern formed by the three candles from 09:29, 09:30, and 09:31, with the pattern confirmation happening on the close of the 09:31 candle.
2. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection
An FVG is a three-candle pattern that signals a price imbalance.
Bullish FVG (Potential Buy): Occurs when the low of the first candle is higher than the high of the third candle. The space between these two prices is the FVG zone.
Bearish FVG (Potential Sell): Occurs when the high of the first candle is lower than the low of the third candle. The space between these two prices is the FVG zone.
If this pattern is detected at the target time, the strategy draws a colored box on the chart to visualize the FVG zone (aqua for bullish, fuchsia for bearish).
3. Entry Logic
The strategy provides two user-selectable methods for entering a trade:
Retracement (Immediate Entry): The strategy will open a position with a market order as soon as the price retraces back into the identified FVG zone.
For a Bullish FVG, a Long (buy) position is opened when the price drops to touch the upper boundary of the FVG.
For a Bearish FVG, a Short (sell) position is opened when the price rises to touch the lower boundary of the FVG.
Limit Order (Pending Entry): The strategy places a pending limit order at the edge of the FVG zone.
For a Bullish FVG, a Buy Limit order is placed at the upper boundary of the FVG.
For a Bearish FVG, a Sell Limit order is placed at the lower boundary of the FVG.
Order Expiration: If the limit order is not filled within a specified number of candles (default is 15), it is automatically canceled to avoid chasing a stale setup.
4. Exit Logic
Once a position is active, the strategy automatically manages the exit by setting a Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) level. You can choose between two types:
Ticks (Fixed Points): You define a fixed profit target and loss limit in ticks (the smallest price movement). For example, a 200-tick TP and a 100-tick SL.
Last Swing (Dynamic Levels): The TP and SL are set dynamically based on the most recent swing high or swing low.
For a Long position: Take Profit is set at the last swing high; Stop Loss is at the last swing low.
For a Short position: Take Profit is set at the last swing low; Stop Loss is at the last swing high.
5. Daily Management
At the start of each new trading day, the script performs a reset. All variables, including any FVG data from the previous day, are cleared. This ensures the strategy only acts on fresh signals from the current day and cancels any pending orders from the day before.
Explanation of Settings (Inputs)
Here is what each user-configurable setting does:
Entry Type: Choose your preferred entry method: Retracement or Limit Order.
Order Expiration (Candles): Applies only to the Limit Order type. Sets how many candles an unfilled order will remain active before being canceled.
Stop Loss Type: Choose Ticks for a fixed-distance stop loss or Last Swing for a dynamic level.
Take Profit Type: Choose Ticks for a fixed-distance profit target or Last Swing for a dynamic level.
Pivot Lookback (SL/TP Swing): Defines how many candles the script looks back to identify the most recent swing high/low for the Last Swing SL/TP type.
Contract Size: The quantity or lot size for each trade.
Take Profit (in Ticks): The profit target distance if using the Ticks type.
Stop Loss (in Ticks): The maximum loss distance if using the Ticks type.
Holy GrailThis is a long-only educational strategy that simulates what happens if you keep adding to a position during pullbacks and only exit when the asset hits a new All-Time High (ATH). It is intended for learning purposes only — not for live trading.
🧠 How it works:
The strategy identifies pullbacks using a simple moving average (MA).
When price dips below the MA, it begins monitoring for the first green candle (close > open).
That green candle signals a potential bottom, so it adds to the position.
If price goes lower, it waits for the next green candle and adds again.
The exit happens after ATH — it sells on each red candle (close < open) once a new ATH is reached.
You can adjust:
MA length (defines what’s considered a pullback)
Initial buy % (how much to pre-fill before signals start)
Buy % per signal (after pullback green candle)
Exit % per red candle after ATH
📊 Intended assets & timeframes:
This strategy is designed for broad market indices and long-term appreciating assets, such as:
SPY, NASDAQ, DAX, FTSE
Use it only on 1D or higher timeframes — it’s not meant for scalping or short-term trading.
⚠️ Important Limitations:
Long-only: The script does not short. It assumes the asset will eventually recover to a new ATH.
Not for all assets: It won't work on assets that may never recover (e.g., single stocks or speculative tokens).
Slow capital deployment: Entries happen gradually and may take a long time to close.
Not optimized for returns: Buy & hold can outperform this strategy.
No slippage, fees, or funding costs included.
This is not a performance strategy. It’s a teaching tool to show that:
High win rate ≠ high profitability
Patience can be deceiving
Many signals = long capital lock-in
🎓 Why it exists:
The purpose of this strategy is to demonstrate market psychology and risk overconfidence. Traders often chase strategies with high win rates without considering holding time, drawdowns, or opportunity cost.
This script helps visualize that phenomenon.
HMA Crossover + ATR + Curvature (Long & Short)📏 Hull Moving Averages (Trend Filters)
- fastHMA = ta.hma(close, fastLength)
- slowHMA = ta.hma(close, slowLength)
These two HMAs act as dynamic trend indicators:
- A bullish crossover of fast over slow HMA signals a potential long setup.
- A bearish crossunder triggers short interest.
⚡️ Curvature (Acceleration Filter)
- curv = ta.change(ta.change(fastHMA))
This calculates the second-order change (akin to the second derivative) of the fast HMA — effectively the acceleration of the trend. It serves as a filter:
- For long entries: curv > curvThresh (positive acceleration)
- For short entries: curv < -curvThresh (negative acceleration)
It helps eliminate weak or stagnating moves by requiring momentum behind the crossover.
📈 Volatility-Based Risk Management (ATR)
- atr = ta.atr(atrLength)
- stopLoss = atr * atrMult
- trailStop = atr * trailMult
These define your:
- Initial stop loss: scaled to recent volatility using ATR and atrMult.
- Trailing stop: also ATR-scaled, to lock in gains dynamically as price moves favorably.
💰 Position Sizing via Risk Percent
- capital = strategy.equity
- riskCapital = capital * (riskPercent / 100)
- qty = riskCapital / stopLoss
This dynamically calculates the position size (qty) such that if the stop loss is hit, the loss does not exceed the predefined percentage of account equity. It’s a volatility-adjusted position sizing method, keeping your risk consistent regardless of market conditions.
📌 Execution Logic
- Long Entry: on bullish HMA crossover with rising curvature.
- Short Entry: on bearish crossover with falling curvature.
- Exits: use ATR-based trailing stops.
- Position is closed when trend conditions reverse (e.g., bearish crossover exits the long).
This framework gives you:
- Trend-following logic (via HMAs)
- Momentum confirmation (via curvature)
- Volatility-aware execution and exits (via ATR)
- Risk-controlled dynamic sizing
Want to get surgical and test what happens if we use curvature on the difference between HMAs instead? That might give some cool insights into trend strength transitions.
LANZ Strategy 1.0 [Backtest]🔷 LANZ Strategy 1.0 — Time-Based Session Trading with Smart Reversal Logic and Risk-Controlled Limit Orders
This backtest version of LANZ Strategy 1.0 brings precision to session-based trading by using directional confirmation, pre-defined risk parameters, and limit orders that execute overnight. Designed for the 1-hour timeframe, it allows traders to evaluate the system with configurable SL, TP, and risk settings in a fully automated environment.
🧠 Core Strategy Logic:
1. Directional Confirmation at 18:00 NY:
At 18:00 NY, the system compares the 08:00 open vs the 18:00 close:
If the direction matches the previous day, the signal is reversed.
If the direction differs, the current day's trend is kept.
This logic is designed to avoid momentum exhaustion and capture corrective reversals.
2. Entry Level Definition:
Based on the confirmed direction:
For BUY, the Low of the day is used as Entry Point (EP).
For SELL, the High of the day becomes EP.
The system plots a Stop Loss and Take Profit based on user-defined pip inputs (default: SL = 18 pips, TP = 54 pips → RR 1:3).
3. Time-Limited Entry Execution (LIMIT Orders):
Orders are sent after 18:00 NY and can be triggered anytime between 18:00 and 08:00 NY.
If EP is not touched before 08:00, the order is automatically cancelled.
4. Manual Close Feature:
If the trade is still open at the configured hour (default 09:00 NY), the system closes all positions, simulating realistic intraday exit scenarios.
5. Lot Size Calculation Based on Risk:
Lot size is dynamically calculated using the account size, risk percentage, and SL distance.
This ensures consistent risk exposure regardless of market volatility.
⚙️ Step-by-Step Flow:
08:00 NY → Captures the open of the day.
18:00 NY → Confirms direction and defines EP, SL, and TP.
After 18:00 NY → If conditions are met, a LIMIT order is placed at EP.
Between 18:00–08:00 NY → If price touches EP, the trade is executed.
