RenkoIndicatorIntroduction:
The Renko Indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify trends and potential trade opportunities in the financial markets. This indicator overlays a Renko chart on the main price chart and generates Buy and Sell signals based on Renko brick movements. Renko charts are unique in that they focus solely on price movements, ignoring the element of time. In this guide, we will walk you through how to use the Renko Indicator effectively in your trading strategy.
Indicator Components:
The Renko Indicator consists of several components, each serving a specific purpose in aiding your trading decisions.
Market Sentiment Calculation:
At the top of the script, the indicator calculates market sentiment by analyzing recent price action. It determines whether the market sentiment is Bullish, Bearish, or Neutral based on the highest and lowest prices within specific time periods. This information provides you with a broader context for potential trading decisions.
Renko Chart Creation:
The indicator creates a Renko chart overlay on the main price chart using the Average True Range (ATR) method. ATR is used to calculate the brick size for the Renko chart, allowing you to adjust the sensitivity of the chart to price movements.
Renko Open and Close Midpoint:
The script plots the midpoint of Renko open and close prices as a line on the main chart. This visualization helps you understand the direction of Renko bricks and identify trends.
Buy and Sell Signal Generation:
The script generates Buy and Sell signals as label shapes on the chart. A Buy signal is generated when the Renko close price crosses above the Renko open price, indicating potential upward momentum. Conversely, a Sell signal is generated when the Renko close price crosses below the Renko open price, suggesting potential downward momentum.
Alert Conditions:
To ensure you never miss a trading opportunity, the script sets up alert conditions for Buy and Sell signals. These alerts notify you when the specified conditions for potential trades are met. Alerts can be customized to your preference, allowing you to receive notifications via your chosen communication channels.
How to Use the Renko Indicator:
Market Sentiment Analysis:
Start by analyzing the calculated market sentiment. This information helps you understand the broader trend in the market. A Bullish sentiment indicates potential upward movement, a Bearish sentiment suggests potential downward movement, and a Neutral sentiment signals uncertainty.
Renko Chart Interpretation:
Observe the Renko chart overlay and its midpoint line. Upward-trending Renko bricks suggest Bullish momentum, while downward-trending bricks indicate Bearish momentum. Use the Renko chart to identify trends and confirm your trading bias.
Buy and Sell Signals:
Pay close attention to the Buy and Sell signals generated by the indicator. A Buy signal occurs when the Renko close price crosses above the Renko open price. Conversely, a Sell signal occurs when the Renko close price crosses below the Renko open price. These signals highlight potential entry points for trades.
Alert Notifications:
Make use of the alert conditions to receive real-time notifications for Buy and Sell signals. Alerts help you stay informed even when you're not actively watching the charts, allowing you to promptly take action on potential trade opportunities.
Risk Management and Considerations:
Confirmation: While the Renko Indicator provides valuable insights, it's crucial to use it in conjunction with other technical and fundamental analysis tools for confirmation.
Backtesting: Before implementing the indicator in live trading, conduct thorough backtesting on historical data to assess its performance and suitability for your trading strategy.
Position Sizing: Determine appropriate position sizes based on your risk tolerance and the signals provided by the indicator. Avoid overleveraging your trades.
Market Conditions: Be mindful of market conditions and news events that could impact price movements. Use the Renko Indicator as a tool to enhance your decision-making process, not as a standalone strategy.
Conclusion:
The Renko Indicator offers a unique perspective on price movements and can be a valuable addition to your trading toolkit. By analyzing market sentiment, interpreting Renko chart patterns, and acting on Buy and Sell signals, you can make informed trading decisions. Remember to practice proper risk management and integrate the Renko Indicator into a comprehensive trading strategy to achieve consistent and successful trading outcomes.

Pivot Highs&lows: Short/Medium/Long-term + Spikeyness FilterShows Pivot Highs & Lows defined or 'Graded' on a fractal basis: Short-term, medium-term and long-term. Also applies 'Spikeyness' condition by default to filter-out weak/rounded pivots
ES1! 4hr chart (CME) shown above, with lookback = 15; clearly identifying the major highs & lows on the basis of how they are fractally 'nested' within lesser Pivots.
-- in the above chart Short term pivot highs (STH) are simply represented by green 'ʌ', and short-term pivot lows (STL) are simply represented by orange 'v'.
//Basics: (as applying to pivot highs, the following is reversed for pivot lows)
-Short term highs (STH) are simple pivot highs, albeit refined from standard with the 'spikeyness' filter.
-Medium-term highs (MTH) are defined as having a lower STH on either side of them.
-Long-term highs (LTH) are defined as having a lower MTH on either side of them.
//Purpose:
-Education: Quick and easy visualization of the strength or importance of a pivot high or low; a way of grading them based on their larger context.
-Backtesting: use in combination with other trading methods when backtesting to see the relative significance and price sensitivity of LTHs/LTLs compared to lower grade highs and lows.
//Settings:
-Choose Pivot lookback/lookforward bars: One setting, the basis from which all further pivot calculations are done.
-Toggle on/off 'Spikeyness' condition to filter-out weak/rounded/unimpressive pivot highs or lows (default is ON).
-Toggle on/off each of STH, MTH, LTH, STL, MTL, LTL; and choose label text-styles/colors/sizes independently.
-Set text Vertically, horizonally, or simply use 'ʌ' or 'v' symbols if you want to declutter your chart.
//Usage notes:
-Pivots take time to print (lookback bars must have elapsed before confirmation). Fractally nested pivots as here (i.e. a LTH), take even longer to print/confirm, so please be patient.
-Works across timeframes & Assets. Different timeframes may require slightly tweaked lookback/forward settings for optimal use; default is 15 bars.
Example usage with just symbolic labels short-term, med-term, long-term with 1x, 2x and 3x ʌ/v respectively:
SimpleCrossOver_BotThis is a simple example of how you can compile your own strategy
This script contains the code for alerts and for backtesting.
In order to use the backtester, comment out the sections to be used for signals, and comment in the sections to be used on the back tester, and visa versa for using the script for alerts in order to automate your own bot.
Simple Candle Strategy# Candle Pattern Strategy - Pine Script V6
## Overview
A TradingView trading strategy script (Pine Script V6) that identifies candlestick patterns over a configurable lookback period and generates trading signals based on pattern recognition rules.
## Strategy Logic
The strategy analyzes the most recent N candlesticks (default: 5) and classifies their patterns into three categories, then generates buy/sell signals based on specific pattern combinations.
### Candlestick Pattern Classification
Each candlestick is classified as one of three types:
| Pattern | Definition | Formula |
|---------|-----------|---------|
| **Close at High** | Close price near the highest price of the candle | `(high - close) / (high - low) ≤ (1 - threshold)` |
| **Close at Low** | Close price near the lowest price of the candle | `(close - low) / (high - low) ≤ (1 - threshold)` |
| **Doji** | Opening and closing prices very close; long upper/lower wicks | `abs(close - open) / (high - low) ≤ threshold` |
### Trading Rules
| Condition | Action | Signal |
|-----------|--------|--------|
| Number of Doji candles ≥ 3 | **SKIP** - Market is too chaotic | No trade |
| "Close at High" count ≥ 2 + Last candle closes at high | **LONG** - Bullish confirmation | Buy Signal |
| "Close at Low" count ≥ 2 + Last candle closes at low | **SHORT** - Bearish confirmation | Sell Signal |
## Configuration Parameters
All parameters are adjustable in TradingView's "Settings/Inputs" tab:
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| **K-line Lookback Period** | 5 | 3-20 | Number of candlesticks to analyze |
| **Doji Threshold** | 0.1 | 0.0-1.0 | Body size / Total range ratio for doji identification |
| **Doji Count Limit** | 3 | 1-10 | Number of dojis that triggers skip signal |
| **Close at High Proximity** | 0.9 | 0.5-1.0 | Required proximity to highest price (0.9 = 90%) |
| **Close at Low Proximity** | 0.9 | 0.5-1.0 | Required proximity to lowest price (0.9 = 90%) |
### Parameter Tuning Guide
#### Proximity Thresholds (Close at High/Low)
- **0.95 or higher**: Stricter - only very strong candles qualify
- **0.90 (default)**: Balanced - good for most market conditions
- **0.80 or lower**: Looser - catches more patterns, higher false signals
#### Doji Threshold
- **0.05-0.10**: Strict doji identification
- **0.10-0.15**: Standard doji detection
- **0.15+**: Includes near-doji patterns
#### Lookback Period
- **3-5 bars**: Fast, sensitive to recent patterns
- **5-10 bars**: Balanced approach
- **10-20 bars**: Slower, filters out noise
## Visual Indicators
### Chart Markers
- **Green Up Arrow** ▲: Long entry signal triggered
- **Red Down Arrow** ▼: Short entry signal triggered
- **Gray X**: Skip signal (too many dojis detected)
### Statistics Table
Located at top-right corner, displays real-time pattern counts:
- **Close at High**: Count of candles closing near the high
- **Close at Low**: Count of candles closing near the low
- **Doji**: Count of doji/near-doji patterns
### Signal Labels
- Green label: "✓ Long condition met" - below entry bar
- Red label: "✓ Short condition met" - above entry bar
- Gray label: "⊠ Too many dojis, skip" - trade skipped
## Risk Management
### Exit Strategy
The strategy includes built-in exit rules based on ATR (Average True Range):
- **Stop Loss**: ATR × 2
- **Take Profit**: ATR × 3
Example: If ATR is $10, stop loss is at -$20 and take profit is at +$30
### Position Sizing
Default: 100% of equity per trade (adjustable in strategy properties)
**Recommendation**: Reduce to 10-25% of equity for safer capital allocation

## Important Notes
### Before Trading Live
1. **Backtest thoroughly**: Test on at least 6-12 months of historical data
2. **Paper trading first**: Practice with simulated trades
3. **Optimize parameters**: Find the best settings for your trading instrument
4. **Manage risk**: Never risk more than 1-2% per trade
5. **Monitor performance**: Review trades regularly and adjust as needed
### Market Conditions
The strategy works best in:
- Trending markets with clear directional bias
- Range-bound markets with defined support/resistance
- Markets with moderate volatility
The strategy may underperform in:
- Highly choppy/noisy markets (many false signals)
- Markets with gaps or overnight gaps
- Low liquidity periods
### Limitations
- Works on chart timeframes only (not intrabar analysis)
- Requires at least 5 bars of history (configurable)
- Fixed exit rules may not suit all trading styles
- No trend filtering (will trade both directions)
## Technical Details
### Historical Buffer Management
The strategy declares maximum bars back to ensure enough historical data:
```pine
max_bars_back(close, 20)
max_bars_back(open, 20)
max_bars_back(high, 20)
max_bars_back(low, 20)
```
This prevents runtime errors when accessing historical candlestick data.
### Pattern Detection Algorithm
```
For each bar in lookback period:
1. Calculate (high - close) / (high - low) → close_to_high_ratio
2. If close_to_high_ratio ≤ (1 - threshold) → count as "Close at High"
3. Calculate (close - low) / (high - low) → close_to_low_ratio
4. If close_to_low_ratio ≤ (1 - threshold) → count as "Close at Low"
5. Calculate abs(close - open) / (high - low) → body_ratio
6. If body_ratio ≤ doji_threshold → count as "Doji"
Signal Generation:
7. If doji_count ≥ cross_count_limit → SKIP_SIGNAL
8. If close_at_high_count ≥ 2 AND last_close_at_high → LONG_SIGNAL
9. If close_at_low_count ≥ 2 AND last_close_at_low → SHORT_SIGNAL
```
## Example Scenarios
### Scenario 1: Bullish Signal
```
Last 5 bars pattern:
Bar 1: Closes at high (95%) ✓
Bar 2: Closes at high (92%) ✓
Bar 3: Closes at mid (50%)
Bar 4: Closes at low (10%)
Bar 5: Closes at high (96%) ✓ (last bar)
Result:
- Close at high count: 3 (≥ 2) ✓
- Last closes at high: ✓
- Doji count: 0 (< 3) ✓
→ LONG SIGNAL ✓
```
### Scenario 2: Skip Signal
```
Last 5 bars pattern:
Bar 1: Doji pattern ✓
Bar 2: Doji pattern ✓
Bar 3: Closes at mid
Bar 4: Doji pattern ✓
Bar 5: Closes at high
Result:
- Doji count: 3 (≥ 3)
→ SKIP SIGNAL - Market too chaotic
```
## Performance Optimization
### Tips for Better Results
1. **Use Higher Timeframes**: 15m or higher reduces false signals
2. **Combine with Indicators**: Add volume or trend filters
3. **Seasonal Adjustment**: Different parameters for different seasons
4. **Instrument Selection**: Test on liquid, high-volume instruments
5. **Regular Rebalancing**: Adjust parameters quarterly based on performance
## Troubleshooting
### No Signals Generated
- Check if lookback period is too large
- Verify proximity thresholds aren't too strict (try 0.85 instead of 0.95)
- Ensure doji limit allows for trading (try 4-5 instead of 3)
### Too Many False Signals
- Increase proximity thresholds to 0.95+
- Reduce lookback period to 3-4 bars
- Increase doji limit to 3-4
- Test on higher timeframes
### Strategy Tester Shows Losses
- Review individual trades to identify patterns
- Adjust stop loss and take profit ratios
- Change lookback period and thresholds
- Test on different market conditions

IDLP – Intraday Daily Levels Pro [FXSMARTLAB]🔥 IDLP – Intraday Daily Levels Pro
IDLP – Intraday Daily Levels Pro is a precision toolkit for intraday traders who rely on objective daily structure instead of repainting indicators and noisy signals.
Every level plotted by IDLP is derived from one simple rule:
Today’s trading decisions must be based on completed market data only.
That means:
✅ No use of the current day’s unfinished data for levels
✅ No lookahead
✅ No hidden repaint behavior
IDLP reconstructs the previous trading day from the intraday chart and then projects that structure forward onto the current session, giving you a stable, institutional-style intraday map.
🧱 1. Previous Daily Levels (Core Structure)
IDLP extracts and displays the full previous daily structure, which you can toggle on/off individually via the inputs:
Previous Daily High (PDH)
Previous Daily Low (PDL)
Previous Daily Open
Previous Daily Close,
Previous Daily Mid (50% of the range)
Previous Daily Q1 (25% of the range)
Previous Daily Q3 (75% of the range)
All of these come from the day that just closed and are then locked for the entire current session.
What these levels tell you:
PDH / PDL – true extremes of yesterday’s price action (liquidity zones, breakout/reversal points).
Previous Daily Open / Close – how the market positioned itself between session start and end
Mid (50%) – equilibrium level of the previous day’s auction.
Q1 / Q3 (25% / 75%) internal structure of the previous day’s range, dividing it into four equal zones and helping you see if price is trading in the lower, middle, or upper quarter of yesterday’s range.
All these levels are non-repaint: once the day is completed, they are fixed and never change when you scroll, replay, or backtest.
🎯 2. Previous Day Pivot System (P, S1, S2, R1, R2)
IDLP includes a classic floor-trader pivot grid, but critically:
It is calculated only from the previous day’s high, low, and close.
So for the current session, the following are fixed:
Pivot P – central reference level of the previous day.
Support 1 (S1) and Support 2 (S2)
Resistance 1 (R1) and Resistance 2 (R2)
These levels are widely used by institutional desks and algos to structure:
mean-reversion plays, breakout zones, intraday targets, and risk placement.
Everything in this section is non-repaint because it only uses the previous day’s fully closed OHLC.
📏 3. 1-Day ADR Bands Around Previous Daily Open
Instead of a multi-day ADR, IDLP uses a pure 1-Day ADR logic:
ADR = Range of the previous day
ADR = PDH − PDL
From that, IDLP builds two clean bands centered around the previous daily Open:
ADR Upper Band = Previous Day Open + (ADR × Multiplier)
ADR Lower Band = Previous Day Open − (ADR × Multiplier)
The multiplier is user-controlled in the inputs:
ADR Multiplier (default: 0.8)
This lets you choose how “tight” or “wide” you want the ADR envelope to be around the previous day’s open.
Typical use cases:
Identify realistic intraday extension targets, Spot exhaustion moves beyond ADR bands, Frame reversals after reaching volatility extremes, Align trades with or against volatility expansion
Again, since ADR is calculated only from the completed previous day, these bands are totally non-repaint during the current session.
🔒 4. True Non-Repaint Architecture
The internal logic of IDLP is built to guarantee non-repaint behavior:
It reconstructs each day using time("D") and tracks:
dayOpen, dayHigh, dayLow, dayClose for the current day
prevDayOpen, prevDayHigh, prevDayLow, prevDayClose for the previous day
At the moment a new day starts:
The “current day” gets “frozen” into prevDay*
These prevDay* values then drive: Previous Daily Levels, Pivots, ADR.
During the current day:
All these “previous day” values stay fixed, no matter what happens.
They do not move in real time, they do not shift in replay.
This means:
What you see in the past is exactly what you would have seen live.
No fake backtests.
No illusion of perfection from repainting behavior.
🎯 5. Designed For Intraday Traders
IDLP – Intraday Daily Levels Pro is made for:
- Day traders and scalpers
- Index and FX traders
- Prop firm challenge trading
- Traders using ICT/SMC-style levels, liquidity, and range logic
- Anyone who wants a clean, institutional-style daily framework without noise
You get:
Previous Day OHLC
Mid / Q1 / Q3 of the previous range
Previous-Day Pivots (P, S1, S2, R1, R2)
1-Day ADR Bands around Previous Day Open
All calculated only from closed data, updated once per day, and then locked.
CNN Fear and Greed StrategyAdaptation of the CNN Fear and Greed Index Indicator (Original by EdgeTools)
The following changes have been implemented:
Put/Call Ratio Data Source: The data source for the Put/Call Ratio has been updated.
Bond Data Source: The data sources for the bond components (Safe Haven Demand and Junk Bond Demand) have been updated.
Normalization Adjustment: The normalization method has been adjusted to allow the CNN Fear and Greed Index to display over a longer historical period, optimizing it for backtesting purposes.
Style Modification: The display style has been modified for a simpler and cleaner appearance.
Strategy Logic Addition: Added a new strategy entry condition: index >= 25 AND index crosses over its 5-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), and a corresponding exit condition of holding the position for 252 bars (days).
CNN Fear & Greed Backtest Strategy (Adapted)
This script is an adaptation of the popular CNN Fear & Greed Index, originally created by EdgeTools, with significant modifications to optimize it for long-term backtesting on the TradingView platform.
The core function of the Fear & Greed Index is to measure the current emotional state of the stock market, ranging from 0 (Extreme Fear) to 100 (Extreme Greed). It operates on the principle that excessive fear drives prices too low (a potential buying opportunity), and excessive greed drives them too high (a potential selling opportunity).
Key Components of the Index (7 Factors)
The composite index is calculated as a weighted average of seven market indicators, each normalized to a score between 0 and 100:
Market Momentum: S&P 500's current level vs. its 125-day Moving Average.
Stock Price Strength: Stocks hitting 52-week highs vs. those hitting 52-week lows.
Stock Price Breadth: Measured by the McClellan Volume Summation Index (or similar volume/breadth metric).
Put/Call Ratio: The relationship between volume of put options (bearish bets) and call options (bullish bets).
Market Volatility: The CBOE VIX Index relative to its 50-day Moving Average.
Safe Haven Demand: The relative performance of stocks (S&P 500) vs. bonds.
Junk Bond Demand: The spread between high-yield (junk) bonds and U.S. Treasury yields.
Critical Adaptations for Backtesting
To improve the index's utility for quantitative analysis, the following changes were made:
Long-Term Normalization: The original normalization method (ta.stdev over a short LENGTH) has been replaced or adjusted to use longer historical data. This change ensures the index generates consistent and comparable sentiment scores across decades of market history, which is crucial for reliable backtesting results.
Updated Data Sources: Specific ticker requests for the Put/Call Ratio and Bond components (Safe Haven and Junk Bond Demand) have been updated to use the most reliable and long-running data available on TradingView, reducing data gaps and improving chart continuity.
Simplified Visuals: The chart display is streamlined, focusing only on the final Fear & Greed Index line and key threshold levels (25, 50, 75) for quick visual assessment.
Integrated Trading Strategy
This script also includes a simple, rules-based strategy designed to test the counter-trend philosophy of the index:
Entry Logic (Long Position): A long position is initiated when the market shows increasing fear, specifically when the index score is less than or equal to the configurable FEAR_LEVEL (default 25) and the index crosses above its own short-term 5-period Simple Moving Average (SMA). This crossover acts as a confirmation that sentiment may be starting to turn around from peak fear.
Exit Logic (Time-Based): All positions are subject to a time-based exit after holding for 252 trading days (approximately one year). This fixed holding period aims to capture the typical duration of a cyclical market recovery following a major panic event.
indicator CalibrationIndicator Calibration - Multi-Indicator Consensus System
Overview
Indicator Calibration is a powerful consensus-based trading indicator that leverages the MyIndicatorLibrary (NormalizedIndicators) to combine multiple trend-following indicators into a single, actionable signal. By averaging the normalized outputs of up to 8 different trend indicators, this tool provides traders with a clear consensus view of market direction, reducing noise and false signals inherent in single-indicator approaches.
The indicator outputs a value between -1 (strong bearish) and +1 (strong bullish), with 0 representing a neutral market state. This creates an intuitive, easy-to-read oscillator that synthesizes multiple analytical perspectives into one coherent signal.
🎯 Core Concept
Consensus Trading Philosophy
Rather than relying on a single indicator that may give conflicting or premature signals, Indicator Calibration employs a democratic voting system where multiple indicators contribute their normalized opinion:
Each enabled indicator votes: +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral)
The votes are averaged to create a consensus signal
Strong consensus (closer to ±1) indicates high agreement among indicators
Weak consensus (closer to 0) indicates market indecision or transition
Key Benefits
Reduced False Signals: Multiple indicators must agree before strong signals appear
Noise Filtering: Individual indicator quirks are smoothed out by averaging
Customizable: Enable/disable indicators and adjust parameters to suit your trading style
Universal Application: Works across all timeframes and asset classes
Clear Visualization: Simple line oscillator with clear bull/bear zones

Quasimodo Pattern Strategy Back Test [TradingFinder] QM Trading🔵 Introduction
The QM pattern, also known as the Quasimodo pattern, is one of the popular patterns in price action, and it is often used by technical analysts. The QM pattern is used to identify trend reversals and provides a very good risk-to-reward ratio. One of the advantages of the QM pattern is its high frequency and visibility in charts.
Additionally, due to its strength, it is highly profitable, and as mentioned, its risk-to-reward ratio is very good. The QM pattern is highly popular among traders in supply and demand, and traders also use this pattern.
The Price Action QM pattern, like other Price Action patterns, has two types: Bullish QM and Bearish QM patterns. To identify this pattern, you need to be familiar with its types to recognize it.
🔵 Identifying the QM Pattern
🟣 Bullish QM
In the bullish QM pattern, as you can see in the image below, an LL and HH are formed. As you can see, the neckline is marked as a dashed line. When the price reaches this range, it will start its upward movement.
🟣 Bearish QM
The Price Action QM pattern also has a bearish pattern. As you can see in the image below, initially, an HH and LL are formed. The neckline in this image is the dashed line, and when the LL is formed, the price reaches this neckline. However, it cannot pass it, and the downward trend resumes.
🔵 How to Use
The Quasimodo pattern is one of the clearest structures used to identify market reversals. It is built around the concept of a structural break followed by a pullback into an area of trapped liquidity. Instead of relying on lagging indicators, this pattern focuses purely on price action and how the market reacts after exhausting one side of liquidity. When understood correctly, it provides traders with precise entry points at the transition between trend phases.
🟣 Bullish Quasimodo
A bullish Quasimodo forms after a clear downtrend when sellers start losing control. The market continues to make lower lows until a sudden higher high appears, signaling that buyers are entering with strength. Price then pulls back to retest the previous low, creating what is known as the Quasimodo low.
This area often becomes the final trap for sellers before the market shifts upward. A visible rejection or displacement from this zone confirms bullish momentum. Traders usually place entries near this level, stops below the low, and targets at previous highs or the next resistance zone. Combining the setup with demand zones or Fair Value Gaps increases its accuracy.
🟣 Bearish Quasimodo
A bearish Quasimodo forms near the top of an uptrend when buyers begin to lose strength. The market continues to make higher highs until a sudden lower low breaks the bullish structure, showing that selling pressure is entering the market. Price then retraces upward to retest the previous high, forming the Quasimodo high, where breakout buyers are often trapped.
Once rejection appears at this level, it indicates a likely reversal. Traders can enter short near this area, with stop-losses placed above the high and targets near the next support or previous lows. The setup gains more reliability when aligned with supply zones, SMT divergence, or bearish Fair Value Gaps.
🔵 Setting
Pivot Period : You can use this parameter to use your desired period to identify the QM pattern. By default, this parameter is set to the number 5.
Take Profit Mode : You can choose your desired Take Profit in three ways. Based on the logic of the QM strategy, you can select two Take Profit levels, TP1 and TP2. You can also choose your take profit based on the Reward to Risk ratio. You must enter your desired R/R in the Reward to Risk Ratio parameter.
Stop Loss Refine : The loss limit of the QM strategy is based on its logic on the Head pattern. You can refine it using the ATR Refine option to prevent Stop Hunt. You can enter your desired coefficient in the Stop Loss ATR Adjustment Coefficient parameter.
Reward to Risk Ratio : If you set Take Profit Mode to R/R, you must enter your desired R/R here. For example, if your loss limit is 10 pips and you set R/R to 2, your take profit will be reached when the price is 20 pips away from your entry point.
Stop Loss ATR Adjustment Coefficient : If you set Stop Loss Refine to ATR Refine, you must adjust your loss limit coefficient here. For example, if your buy position's loss limit is at the price of 1000, and your ATR is 10, if you set Stop Loss ATR Adjustment Coefficient to 2, your loss limit will be at the price of 980.
Entry Level Validity : Determines how long the Entry level remains valid. The higher the level, the longer the entry level will remain valid. By default it is 2 and it can be set between 2 and 15.

TMB Invest - Smart Money Concept StrategyEnglish:
**Quick Overview**
The "TMB_SMC_Strategy_v1.1.3" combines a classic trend filter using two EMAs with contrarian RSI entries and simple SMC elements (Fair Value Gaps & Order Blocks). Stop-loss and take-profit orders are volatility-adaptive and controlled via the ATR. An integrated dashboard displays the setup status, stop-loss/take-profit levels, entry reference, and trend, RSI, and ATR values.
---
## Operating Principle
1. **Trend Filter:** A fast EMA (default 50) is compared to a slow EMA (default 200). Trading occurs only in the direction of the trend: long in uptrends, short in downtrends.
2. **Timing via RSI:** Contrarian entries within the trend. Go long when the RSI is below a buy level (default 40); Short when the RSI is above a sell level (standard 60).
3. **Structure Check (SMC Proxy):** An "FVG Touch" serves as additional confirmation that an inefficient price zone has been tested. Order blocks are visualized for guidance but are not a direct entry trigger.
4. **Risk Management via ATR:** Stop-loss and take-profit levels are set as multipliers of the current ATR (e.g., SL = 1×ATR, TP = 2×ATR). This allows target and risk distances to adjust to market volatility.
5. **Simple Position Logic:** Only one position is held at a time (no pyramiding). After entry, stop and limit orders (bracket exit) are automatically placed.
---
## Input Values
* **EMA Fast / EMA Slow:** Lengths of the moving averages for the trend filter.
* **RSI Length / Levels:** Length of the RSI as well as buy and sell thresholds (contra signals within the trend direction).
* **Take Profit (RR) / Stop Loss (RR):** ATR multipliers for TP and SL.
* **Show FVGs & Order Blocks:** Toggles the visual SMC elements (zones/boxes) on or off.
--
## Signals & Execution
* **Long Setup:** Uptrend (fast EMA above slow EMA) **and** RSI below the buy level **and** a current FVG signal in a bullish direction.
* **Short Setup:** Downtrend (fast EMA below slow EMA) **and** RSI above the sell level **and** a current FVG touch in a bearish direction.
* **Entry & Exit:** If the setup is met, the market is entered; stop-loss/take-profit orders are placed immediately according to ATR multiples.
--
## Visualization
* **EMAs:** The fast and slow EMAs are plotted to illustrate the trend.
* **FVGs:** Fair Value Gaps are drawn as semi-transparent boxes in the trend color and projected slightly into the future.
* **Order Blocks:** Potential order block zones from the previous candle are visually highlighted (for informational purposes only).
---
## Integrated Dashboard
A compact table dashboard (bottom left) displays:
* Current **Setup Status** (Long/Short active, Long/Short ready, No Setup),
* **Stop-Loss**, **Take-Profit**, and **Entry Reference**,
* **Trend Status** (Bull/Bear/Sideways),
* **RSI Value**, and **ATR Value**.
Active long/short positions are highlighted in color (green/red).
--
## Practical Guide
1. **Place on Chart** and select the desired timeframe.
2. **Calibrate Parameters** (EMA lengths, RSI levels, ATR multipliers) to match the market and timeframe.
3. **Backtest** across different market phases; prioritize robustness over maximum curve fit.
4. **Fine-Tuning:**
* Shorter EMAs are often useful intraday (e.g., 20/100 or 34/144).
* Adjust RSI levels to market characteristics (45/55 for aggressive trading, 30/70 for conservative trading).
* Increase or decrease ATR multipliers depending on volatility/trading style.
--
## Notes, Limitations & Extensions
* **FVG Definition:** The FVG detection used here is intentionally simplified. Those who prefer a more rigorous approach can switch to a 3-candle definition and fill levels.
* **Order Blocks:** These primarily serve as a guide. Integration into entry/exit logic (e.g., retests) is possible as an extension.
* **Backtest Realism:** Fills may differ from the displayed closing price. For greater accuracy, intrabar backtests or an entry indicator based on the average position price are conceivable.
* **Alerts:** Currently, no alert conditions are defined; these can be added for long/short setups and status messages.
* **Position Management:** By default, no scaling is performed. Partial sales, trailing stops, or multiple entries can be added.
---
## Purpose & Benefits
The strategy offers a clear, modular framework: trend filter (direction), RSI contra timing (entry), SMC proxy via FVG Touch (structure), and ATR-based exits (risk adaptation). This makes it robust, easy to understand, and highly extensible—both for discretionary traders who appreciate visual SMC elements and for systematic testers who prefer a clean, parameterizable foundation.
BOCS Channel Scalper Strategy - Automated Mean Reversion System# BOCS Channel Scalper Strategy - Automated Mean Reversion System
## WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES:
This is an automated mean reversion trading strategy that identifies consolidation channels through volatility analysis and executes scalp trades when price enters entry zones near channel boundaries. Unlike breakout strategies, this system assumes price will revert to the channel mean, taking profits as price bounces back from extremes. Position sizing is fully customizable with three methods: fixed contracts, percentage of equity, or fixed dollar amount. Stop losses are placed just outside channel boundaries with take profits calculated either as fixed points or as a percentage of channel range.
## KEY DIFFERENCE FROM ORIGINAL BOCS:
**This strategy is designed for traders seeking higher trade frequency.** The original BOCS indicator trades breakouts OUTSIDE channels, waiting for price to escape consolidation before entering. This scalper version trades mean reversion INSIDE channels, entering when price reaches channel extremes and betting on a bounce back to center. The result is significantly more trading opportunities:
- **Original BOCS**: 1-3 signals per channel (only on breakout)
- **Scalper Version**: 5-15+ signals per channel (every touch of entry zones)
- **Trade Style**: Mean reversion vs trend following
- **Hold Time**: Seconds to minutes vs minutes to hours
- **Best Markets**: Ranging/choppy conditions vs trending breakouts
This makes the scalper ideal for active day traders who want continuous opportunities within consolidation zones rather than waiting for breakout confirmation. However, increased trade frequency also means higher commission costs and requires tighter risk management.
## TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
### Price Normalization Process:
The strategy normalizes price data to create consistent volatility measurements across different instruments and price levels. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). Current close price is normalized using: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low), producing values between 0 and 1 for standardized volatility analysis.
### Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series to measure price deviation from the mean. Higher standard deviation values indicate volatility expansion; lower values indicate consolidation. The strategy uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() to identify when volatility peaks and troughs occur over the detection period (default 14 bars).
### Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level (ta.crossover(upper, lower)), a consolidation phase begins. The strategy tracks the highest and lowest prices during this period, which become the channel boundaries. Minimum duration of 10+ bars is required to filter out brief volatility spikes. Channels are rendered as box objects with defined upper and lower boundaries, with colored zones indicating entry areas.
### Entry Signal Generation:
The strategy uses immediate touch-based entry logic. Entry zones are defined as a percentage from channel edges (default 20%):
- **Long Entry Zone**: Bottom 20% of channel (bottomBound + channelRange × 0.2)
- **Short Entry Zone**: Top 20% of channel (topBound - channelRange × 0.2)
Long signals trigger when candle low touches or enters the long entry zone. Short signals trigger when candle high touches or enters the short entry zone. This captures mean reversion opportunities as price reaches channel extremes.
### Cooldown Filter:
An optional cooldown period (measured in bars) prevents signal spam by enforcing minimum spacing between consecutive signals. If cooldown is set to 3 bars, no new long signal will fire until 3 bars after the previous long signal. Long and short cooldowns are tracked independently, allowing both directions to signal within the same period.
### ATR Volatility Filter:
The strategy includes a multi-timeframe ATR filter to avoid trading during low-volatility conditions. Using request.security(), it fetches ATR values from a specified timeframe (e.g., 1-minute ATR while trading on 5-minute charts). The filter compares current ATR to a user-defined minimum threshold:
- If ATR ≥ threshold: Trading enabled
- If ATR < threshold: No signals fire
This prevents entries during dead zones where mean reversion is unreliable due to insufficient price movement.
### Take Profit Calculation:
Two TP methods are available:
**Fixed Points Mode**:
- Long TP = Entry + (TP_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
- Short TP = Entry - (TP_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
**Channel Percentage Mode**:
- Long TP = Entry + (ChannelRange × TP_Percent)
- Short TP = Entry - (ChannelRange × TP_Percent)
Default 50% targets the channel midline, a natural mean reversion target. Larger percentages aim for opposite channel edge.
### Stop Loss Placement:
Stop losses are placed just outside the channel boundary by a user-defined tick offset:
- Long SL = ChannelBottom - (SL_Offset_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
- Short SL = ChannelTop + (SL_Offset_Ticks × syminfo.mintick)
This logic assumes channel breaks invalidate the mean reversion thesis. If price breaks through, the range is no longer valid and position exits.
### Trade Execution Logic:
When entry conditions are met (price in zone, cooldown satisfied, ATR filter passed, no existing position):
1. Calculate entry price at zone boundary
2. Calculate TP and SL based on selected method
3. Execute strategy.entry() with calculated position size
4. Place strategy.exit() with TP limit and SL stop orders
5. Update info table with active trade details
The strategy enforces one position at a time by checking strategy.position_size == 0 before entry.
### Channel Breakout Management:
Channels are removed when price closes more than 10 ticks outside boundaries. This tolerance prevents premature channel deletion from minor breaks or wicks, allowing the mean reversion setup to persist through small boundary violations.
### Position Sizing System:
Three methods calculate position size:
**Fixed Contracts**:
- Uses exact contract quantity specified in settings
- Best for futures traders (e.g., "trade 2 NQ contracts")
**Percentage of Equity**:
- position_size = (strategy.equity × equity_pct / 100) / close
- Dynamically scales with account growth
**Cash Amount**:
- position_size = cash_amount / close
- Maintains consistent dollar exposure regardless of price
## INPUT PARAMETERS:
### Position Sizing:
- **Position Size Type**: Choose Fixed Contracts, % of Equity, or Cash Amount
- **Number of Contracts**: Fixed quantity per trade (1-1000)
- **% of Equity**: Percentage of account to allocate (1-100%)
- **Cash Amount**: Dollar value per position ($100+)
### Channel Settings:
- **Nested Channels**: Allow multiple overlapping channels vs single channel
- **Normalization Length**: Lookback for high/low calculation (1-500, default 100)
- **Box Detection Length**: Period for volatility detection (1-100, default 14)
### Scalping Settings:
- **Enable Long Scalps**: Toggle long entries on/off
- **Enable Short Scalps**: Toggle short entries on/off
- **Entry Zone % from Edge**: Size of entry zone (5-50%, default 20%)
- **SL Offset (Ticks)**: Distance beyond channel for stop (1+, default 5)
- **Cooldown Period (Bars)**: Minimum spacing between signals (0 = no cooldown)
### ATR Filter:
- **Enable ATR Filter**: Toggle volatility filter on/off
- **ATR Timeframe**: Source timeframe for ATR (1, 5, 15, 60 min, etc.)
- **ATR Length**: Smoothing period (1-100, default 14)
- **Min ATR Value**: Threshold for trade enablement (0.1+, default 10.0)
### Take Profit Settings:
- **TP Method**: Choose Fixed Points or % of Channel
- **TP Fixed (Ticks)**: Static distance in ticks (1+, default 30)
- **TP % of Channel**: Dynamic target as channel percentage (10-100%, default 50%)

## HOW TO USE:
### For 1-3 Minute Scalping (NQ/ES):
- ATR Timeframe: "1" (1-minute)
- ATR Min Value: 10.0 (for NQ), adjust per instrument
- Entry Zone %: 20-25%
- TP Method: Fixed Points, 20-40 ticks
- SL Offset: 5-10 ticks
- Cooldown: 2-3 bars
- Position Size: 1-2 contracts
### For 5-15 Minute Day Trading:
- ATR Timeframe: "5" or match chart
- ATR Min Value: Adjust to instrument (test 8-15 for NQ)
- Entry Zone %: 20-30%
- TP Method: % of Channel, 40-60%
- SL Offset: 5-10 ticks
- Cooldown: 3-5 bars
- Position Size: Fixed contracts or 5-10% equity
### For 30-60 Minute Swing Scalping:
- ATR Timeframe: "15" or "30"
- ATR Min Value: Lower threshold for broader market
- Entry Zone %: 25-35%
- TP Method: % of Channel, 50-70%
- SL Offset: 10-15 ticks
- Cooldown: 5+ bars or disable
- Position Size: % of equity recommended
## BACKTEST CONSIDERATIONS:
- Strategy performs best in ranging, mean-reverting markets
- Strong trending markets produce more stop losses as price breaks channels
- ATR filter significantly reduces trade count but improves quality during low volatility
- Cooldown period trades signal quantity for signal quality
- Commission and slippage materially impact sub-5-minute timeframe performance
- Shorter timeframes require tighter entry zones (15-20%) to catch quick reversions
- % of Channel TP adapts better to varying channel sizes than fixed points
- Fixed contract sizing recommended for consistent risk per trade in futures
**Backtesting Parameters Used**: This strategy was developed and tested using realistic commission and slippage values to provide accurate performance expectations. Recommended settings: Commission of $1.40 per side (typical for NQ futures through discount brokers), slippage of 2 ticks to account for execution delays on fast-moving scalp entries. These values reflect real-world trading costs that active scalpers will encounter. Backtest results without proper cost simulation will significantly overstate profitability.
## COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price data including stock indices (NQ, ES, YM, RTY), individual stocks, forex pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD), cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH), and commodities. Volume-based features require data feed with volume information but are optional for core functionality.
## KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
- Immediate touch entry can fire multiple times in choppy zones without adequate cooldown
- Channel deletion at 10-tick breaks may be too aggressive or lenient depending on instrument tick size
- ATR filter from lower timeframes requires higher-tier TradingView subscription (request.security limitation)
- Mean reversion logic fails in strong breakout scenarios leading to stop loss hits
- Position sizing via % of equity or cash amount calculates based on close price, may differ from actual fill price
- No partial closing capability - full position exits at TP or SL only
- Strategy does not account for gap openings or overnight holds
## RISK DISCLOSURE:
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results. This strategy is for educational purposes and backtesting only. Mean reversion strategies can experience extended drawdowns during trending markets. Stop losses may not fill at intended levels during extreme volatility or gaps. Thoroughly test on historical data and paper trade before risking real capital. Use appropriate position sizing and never risk more than you can afford to lose. Consider consulting a licensed financial advisor before making trading decisions. Automated trading systems can malfunction - monitor all live positions actively.

Enhancements to the original concept include: mean reversion entry logic (vs breakout), immediate touch-based signals, multi-timeframe ATR volatility filtering, flexible position sizing (fixed/percentage/cash), cooldown period filtering, dual TP methods (fixed points vs channel percentage), automated strategy execution with exit management, and real-time position monitoring table.
High For Loop | MisinkoMasterThe High For Loop is a new Trend Following tool designed to give traders smooth and fast signals without being too complex, overfit or repainting.
It works by finding how many bars have a higher high than the current high, how many have a lower high, and scores it based on that. This provides users with easy and accurate signals, allowing for gaining a large edge in the market.
It is pretty simple but you can still play around with it pretty well and improve uppon your strategies.
For any backtests using strategies, I left many comments and tried to make it as easy as possible to backtest.

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

OBV Breakout Channel Strategy
This script is an evolution of a traditional OBV+SMA Crossover concept. Through personal testing, the original crossover method was found to have unsatisfactory performance. This new strategy, therefore, uses a "Breakout" principle. The inspiration comes from using ATR to create price channels, but this concept has been adapted and applied to On-Balance Volume (OBV) instead.
Furthermore, the script has been converted into a full Strategy (with assistance from Gemini AI) to enable precise backtesting and performance evaluation.
The strategy's core principle is momentum-based: "once a trend is established, it is likely to continue." It seeks to enter trades on exceptionally strong breakouts of buying or selling pressure as measured by OBV.
Core Concept
This is a Strategy that uses On-Balance Volume (OBV), an indicator that measures cumulative buying and selling pressure. Instead of relying on a basic Simple Moving Average (SMA) Crossover, this strategy identifies a "Breakout" of the OBV from its own highest-high and lowest-low channel over a recent period.
Bull Signal: Occurs when the buying pressure (OBV) is strong enough to break above its own recent highest high, indicating a potential shift to an upward trend.
Bear Signal: Occurs when the selling pressure (OBV) is intense enough to push the OBV below its own recent lowest low, indicating a potential shift to a downward trend.
On-Screen Components
1. OBV Line
This is the main indicator line, representing the cumulative volume. Its color changes to green when OBV is rising and red when it is falling.
2. Dynamic Support & Resistance Line
This is the thick Green or Red line that appears based on the strategy's current "mode." This line serves as a dynamic support/resistance level and can be used as a reference for stop-loss placement.
Green Line (Support): Appears when the strategy enters "Bull Mode." This line represents the lowest low of the OBV in the recent past and acts as dynamic support.
Red Line (Resistance): Appears when the strategy enters "Bear Mode." This line represents the highest high of the OBV in the recent past and acts as dynamic resistance.
3. Signal Markers
Bull 🔼 (Green Up Triangle): This is the "Long Entry" signal. It appears at the moment the OBV first breaks out above its high-low channel.
Bear 🔽 (Red Down Triangle): This is the "Short Entry" signal. It appears at the moment the OBV first breaks down below its high-low channel.
How to Use
Add this script to the price chart of your choice.
Navigate to the "Strategy Tester" panel at the bottom of TradingView to view the backtesting results for the strategy on different assets and timeframes.
Use the "Bull" and "Bear" signals as aids in your trading decisions.
Disclaimer: No strategy is 100% perfect. This script should always be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis, such as price structure, key price-based support/resistance levels, and your own personal risk management rules.
Inputs
SMA Length 1 / SMA Length 2: These are used to plot moving averages on the OBV for visual reference. They are part of the legacy logic and do not affect the new breakout strategy. However, they are kept for traders who may wish to observe their crossovers for additional confirmation.
High/Low Lookback Length: (Most Important Setting) This determines the period used to calculate the highest-high and lowest-low OBV channel. (Default is 30; adjust this to suit the asset's volatility).
A smaller value: Creates a narrower channel, leading to more frequent and faster signals, but potentially more false signals.
A larger value: Creates a wider channel, leading to fewer and slower signals, which are likely to be more significant.
Best SMA FinderThis script, Best SMA Finder, is a tool designed to identify the most robust simple moving average (SMA) length for a given chart, based on historical backtest performance. It evaluates hundreds of SMA values (from 10 to 1000) and selects the one that provides the best balance between profitability, consistency, and trade frequency.
What it does:
The script performs individual backtests for each SMA length using either "Long Only" or "Buy & Sell" logic, as selected by the user. For each tested SMA, it computes:
- Total number of trades
- Profit Factor (total profits / total losses)
- Win Rate
- A composite Robustness Score, which integrates Profit Factor, number of trades (log-scaled), and win rate.
Only SMA configurations that meet the user-defined minimum trade count are considered valid. Among all valid candidates, the script selects the SMA length with the highest robustness score and plots it on the chart.
How to use it:
- Choose the strategy type: "Long Only" or "Buy & Sell"
- Set the minimum trade count to filter out statistically irrelevant results
- Enable or disable the summary stats table (default: enabled)
The selected optimal SMA is plotted on the chart in blue. The optional table in the top-right corner shows the corresponding SMA length, trade count, Profit Factor, Win Rate, and Robustness Score for transparency.
Key Features:
- Exhaustive SMA optimization across 991 values
- Customizable trade direction and minimum trade filters
- In-chart visualization of results via table and plotted optimal SMA
- Uses a custom robustness formula to rank SMA lengths
Use cases:
Ideal for traders who want to backtest and auto-select a historically effective SMA without manual trial-and-error. Useful for swing and trend-following strategies across different timeframes.
📌 Limitations:
- Not a full trading strategy with position sizing or stop-loss logic
- Only one entry per direction at a time is allowed
- Designed for exploration and optimization, not as a ready-to-trade system
This script is open-source and built entirely from original code and logic. It does not replicate any closed-source script or reuse significant external open-source components.
Williams R Zone Scalper v1.0[BullByte]Originality & Usefulness
Unlike standard Williams R cross-over scripts, this strategy layers five dynamic filters—moving-average trend, Supertrend, Choppiness Index, Bollinger Band Width, and volume validation —and presents a real-time dashboard with equity, PnL, filter status, and key indicator values. No other public Pine script combines these elements with toggleable filters and a custom dashboard. In backtests (BTC/USD (Binance), 5 min, 24 Mar 2025 → 28 Apr 2025), adding these filters turned a –2.09 % standalone Williams R into a +5.05 % net winner while cutting maximum drawdown in half.
---
What This Script Does
- Monitors Williams R (length 14) for overbought/oversold reversals.
- Applies up to five dynamic filters to confirm trend strength and volatility direction:
- Moving average (SMA/EMA/WMA/HMA)
- Supertrend line
- Choppiness Index (CI)
- Bollinger Band Width (BBW)
- Volume vs. its 50-period MA
- Plots blue arrows for Long entries (R crosses above –80 + all filters green) and red arrows for Short entries (R crosses below –20 + all filters green).
- Optionally sets dynamic ATR-based stop-loss (1.5×ATR) and take-profit (2×ATR).
- Shows a dashboard box with current position, equity, PnL, filter status, and real-time Williams R / MA/volume values.

Ultimate Stochastics Strategy by NHBprod Use to Day Trade BTCHey All!
Here's a new script I worked on that's super simple but at the same time useful. Check out the backtest results. The backtest results include slippage and fees/commission, and is still quite profitable. Obviously the profitability magnitude depends on how much capital you begin with, and how much the user utilizes per order, but in any event it seems to be profitable according to backtests.
This is different because it allows you full functionality over the stochastics calculations which is designed for random datasets. This script allows you to:
Designate ANY period of time to analyze and study
Choose between Long trading, short trading, and Long & Short trading
It allows you to enter trades based on the stochastics calculations
It allows you to EXIT trades using the stochastics calculations or take profit, or stop loss, Or any combination of those, which is nice because then the user can see how one variable effects the overall performance.
As for the actual stochastics formula, you get control, and get to SEE the plot lines for slow K, slow D, and fast K, which is usually not considered.
You also get the chance to modify the smoothing method, which has not been done with regular stochastics indicators. You get to choose the standard simple moving average (SMA) method, but I also allow you to choose other MA's such as the HMA and WMA.
Lastly, the user gets the option of using a custom trade extender, which essentially allows a buy or sell signal to exist for X amount of candles after the initial signal. For example, you can use "max bars since signal" to 1, and this will allow the indicator to produce an extra sequential buy signal when a buy signal is generated. This can be useful because it is possible that you use a small take profit (TP) and quickly exit a profitable trade. With the max bars since signal variable, you're able to reenter on the next candle and allow for another opportunity.
Let me know if you have any questions! Please take a look at the performance report and let me know your thoughts! :)
GannLSVZO Indicator [Algo Alert]The Volume Zone oscillator breaks up volume activity into positive and negative categories. It is positive when the current closing price is greater than the prior closing price and negative when it's lower than the prior closing price. The resulting curve plots through relative percentage levels that yield a series of buy and sell signals, depending on level and indicator direction.
The Gann Laplace Smoothed Volume Zone Oscillator GannLSVZO is a refined version of the Volume Zone Oscillator, enhanced by the implementation of the upgraded Discrete Fourier Transform, the Laplace Stieltjes Transform. Its primary function is to streamline price data and diminish market noise, thus offering a clearer and more precise reflection of price trends.
By combining the Laplace with Gann Swing Entries and Exits (orange X) and with Ehler's white noise histogram, users gain a comprehensive perspective on volume-related market conditions.
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR:
The default period is 2 but can be adjusted after backtesting. (I suggest 5 VZO length and NoiceR max length 8 as-well)
The VZO points to a positive trend when it is rising above the 0% level, and a negative trend when it is falling below the 0% level. 0% level can be adjusted in setting by adjusting VzoDifference. Oscillations rising below 0% level or falling above 0% level result in a natural trend.
ORIGINALITY & USFULLNESS:
Personal combination of Gann swings and Laplace Stieltjes Transform of a price which results in less noise Volume Zone Oscillator.
The Laplace Stieltjes Transform is a mathematical technique that transforms discrete data from the time domain into its corresponding representation in the frequency domain. This process involves breaking down a signal into its individual frequency components, thereby exposing the amplitude and phase characteristics inherent in each frequency element.
This indicator utilizes the concept of Ehler's Universal Oscillator and displays a histogram, offering critical insights into the prevailing levels of market noise. The Ehler's Universal Oscillator is grounded in a statistical model that captures the erratic and unpredictable nature of market movements. Through the application of this principle, the histogram aids traders in pinpointing times when market volatility is either rising or subsiding.
The Gann swings and the Gan swing strategy is developed by meomeo105, this Gann high and low algorithm forms the basis of the EMA modification.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
My detailed description of the indicator and use cases which I find very valuable.
What is oscillator?
Oscillators are chart indicators that can assist a trader in determining overbought or oversold conditions in ranging (non-trending) markets.
What is volume zone oscillator?
Price Zone Oscillator measures if the most recent closing price is above or below the preceding closing price.
Volume Zone Oscillator is Volume multiplied by the 1 or -1 depending on the difference of the preceding 2 close prices and smoothed with Exponential moving Average.
What does this mean?
If the VZO is above 0 and VZO is rising. We have a bullish trend. Most likely.
If the VZO is below 0 and VZO is falling. We have a bearish trend. Most likely.
Rising means that VZO on close is higher than the previous day.
Falling means that VZO on close is lower than the previous day.
What if VZO is falling above 0 line?
It means we have a high probability of a bearish trend.
Thus the indicator returns 0 and Strategy closes all it's positions when falling above 0 (or rising bellow 0) and we combine higher and lower timeframes to gauge the trend.
What is approximation and smoothing?
They are mathematical concepts for making a discrete set of numbers a
continuous curved line.
Laplace Stieltjes Transform approximation of a close price are taken from aprox library.
Key Features:
You can tailor the Indicator/Strategy to your preferences with adjustable parameters such as VZO length, noise reduction settings, and smoothing length.
Volume Zone Oscillator (VZO) shows market sentiment with the VZO, enhanced with Exponential Moving Average (EMA) smoothing for clearer trend identification.
Noise Reduction leverages Euler's White noise capabilities for effective noise reduction in the VZO, providing a cleaner and more accurate representation of market dynamics.
Choose between the traditional Fast Laplace Stieltjes Transform (FLT) and the innovative Double Discrete Fourier Transform (DTF32) soothed price series to suit your analytical needs.
Use dynamic calculation of Laplace coefficient or the static one. You may modify those inputs and Strategy entries with Gann swings.
I suggest using "Close all" input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame. When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using "Close all" input as True, except for the lowest TimeFrame. I suggest using 100% equity as your default quantity for fine-tune purposes. I have to mention that 100% equity may lead to unrealistic backtesting results. Be avare. When backtesting for trading purposes use Contracts or USDT.
Fine-tune Inputs: Gann + Laplace Smooth Volume Zone OscillatorUse this Strategy to Fine-tune inputs for the GannLSVZ0 Indicator.
Strategy allows you to fine-tune the indicator for 1 TimeFrame at a time; cross Timeframe Input fine-tuning is done manually after exporting the chart data.
I suggest using "Close all" input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame. When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using "Close all" input as True, except for the lowest TimeFrame.

The VZO points to a positive trend when it is rising above the 0% level, and a negative trend when it is falling below the 0% level. 0% level can be adjusted in setting by adjusting VzoDifference. Oscillations rising below 0% level or falling above 0% level result in a natural trend.
HOW TO USE THE STRATEGY:
Here you fine-tune the inputs until you find a combination that works well on all Timeframes you will use when creating your Automated Trade Algorithmic Strategy. I suggest 4h, 12h, 1D, 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D, W and M.
When Indicator/Strategy returns 0 or natural trend, Strategy Closes All it's positions.
ORIGINALITY & USFULLNESS:
Personal combination of Gann swings and Laplace Stieltjes Transform of a price which results in less noise Volume Zone Oscillator.
The Laplace Stieltjes Transform is a mathematical technique that transforms discrete data from the time domain into its corresponding representation in the frequency domain. This process involves breaking down a signal into its individual frequency components, thereby exposing the amplitude and phase characteristics inherent in each frequency element.
This indicator utilizes the concept of Ehler's Universal Oscillator and displays a histogram, offering critical insights into the prevailing levels of market noise. The Ehler's Universal Oscillator is grounded in a statistical model that captures the erratic and unpredictable nature of market movements. Through the application of this principle, the histogram aids traders in pinpointing times when market volatility is either rising or subsiding.
The Gann swing strategy is developed by meomeo105, this Gann high and low algorithm forms the basis of the EMA modification.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
My detailed description of the indicator and use cases which I find very valuable.
What is oscillator?
Oscillators are chart indicators that can assist a trader in determining overbought or oversold conditions in ranging (non-trending) markets.
What is volume zone oscillator?
Price Zone Oscillator measures if the most recent closing price is above or below the preceding closing price.
Volume Zone Oscillator is Volume multiplied by the 1 or -1 depending on the difference of the preceding 2 close prices and smoothed with Exponential moving Average.
What does this mean?
If the VZO is above 0 and VZO is rising. We have a bullish trend. Most likely.
If the VZO is below 0 and VZO is falling. We have a bearish trend. Most likely.
Rising means that VZO on close is higher than the previous day.
Falling means that VZO on close is lower than the previous day.
What if VZO is falling above 0 line?
It means we have a high probability of a bearish trend.
Thus the indicator returns 0 and Strategy closes all it's positions when falling above 0 (or rising bellow 0) and we combine higher and lower timeframes to gauge the trend.
What is approximation and smoothing?
They are mathematical concepts for making a discrete set of numbers a
continuous curved line.
Laplace Stieltjes Transform approximation of a close price are taken from aprox library.
Key Features:
You can tailor the Indicator/Strategy to your preferences with adjustable parameters such as VZO length, noise reduction settings, and smoothing length.
Volume Zone Oscillator (VZO) shows market sentiment with the VZO, enhanced with Exponential Moving Average (EMA) smoothing for clearer trend identification.
Noise Reduction leverages Euler's White noise capabilities for effective noise reduction in the VZO, providing a cleaner and more accurate representation of market dynamics.
Choose between the traditional Fast Laplace Stieltjes Transform (FLT) and the innovative Double Discrete Fourier Transform (DTF32) soothed price series to suit your analytical needs.
Use dynamic calculation of Laplace coefficient or the static one. You may modify those inputs and Strategy entries with Gann swings.
I suggest using "Close all" input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame. When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using "Close all" input as True, except for the lowest TimeFrame. I suggest using 100% equity as your default quantity for fine-tune purposes. I have to mention that 100% equity may lead to unrealistic backtesting results. Be avare. When backtesting for trading purposes use Contracts or USDT.
Retest Confirm Point TibbuCreating a "Retest Confirm Point" indicator that generates buy and sell signals involves defining criteria to confirm that a price retest is valid before issuing a trade signal. This generally requires identifying a key level (such as support, resistance, or a trendline), detecting a retest of this level, and then confirming the validity of the retest.
Here’s a Pine Script example to help you create such an indicator. This script identifies and confirms retests of previous highs and lows, and generates buy and sell signals based on those retests: Explanation:
Recent High and Low:
The script identifies the highest and lowest prices over a specified lookback period.
These levels are plotted on the chart as reference points.
Retest Conditions:
Retest High: The closing price is within a buffer range around the recent high.
Retest Low: The closing price is within a buffer range around the recent low.
Confirmation:
Confirm High: The closing price reaches a new high over a set number of bars after the retest condition.
Confirm Low: The closing price reaches a new low over a set number of bars after the retest condition.
Signals:
Buy Signal: Issued when a confirmed retest of the recent high occurs.
Sell Signal: Issued when a confirmed retest of the recent low occurs.
Customization:
Lookback Period: Adjust to determine the historical range for finding recent highs and lows.
Confirmation Bars: Change the number of bars used to confirm the retest.
Retest Buffer: Adjust the percentage buffer to fine-tune the retest conditions.
Testing and Optimization:
Backtest: Always backtest the strategy on historical data to ensure it behaves as expected.
Adjust Parameters: Modify parameters based on the asset, timeframe, and market conditions.
Feel free to modify this script further based on your specific trading strategy and needs. If you need help with any additional features or further customization, let me know!

Fine-tune Inputs: Fourier Smoothed Volume zone oscillator WFSVZ0Use this Strategy to Fine-tune inputs for the (W&)FSVZ0 Indicator.
Strategy allows you to fine-tune the indicator for 1 TimeFrame at a time; cross Timeframe Input fine-tuning is done manually after exporting the chart data.
I suggest using "Close all" input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame. When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using "Close all" input as True, except for the lowest TimeFrame.
MEANINGFUL DESCRIPTION:
The Volume Zone oscillator breaks up volume activity into positive and negative categories. It is positive when the current closing price is greater than the prior closing price and negative when it's lower than the prior closing price. The resulting curve plots through relative percentage levels that yield a series of buy and sell signals, depending on level and indicator direction.
The Wavelet & Fourier Smoothed Volume Zone Oscillator (W&)FSVZO is a refined version of the Volume Zone Oscillator, enhanced by the implementation of the Discrete Fourier Transform . Its primary function is to streamline price data and diminish market noise, thus offering a clearer and more precise reflection of price trends.
By combining the Wavalet and Fourier aproximation with Ehler's white noise histogram, users gain a comprehensive perspective on volume-related market conditions.
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR:
The default period is 2 but can be adjusted after backtesting. (I suggest 5 VZO length and NoiceR max length 8 as-well)
The VZO points to a positive trend when it is rising above the 0% level, and a negative trend when it is falling below the 0% level. 0% level can be adjusted in setting by adjusting VzoDifference. Oscillations rising below 0% level or falling above 0% level result in a natural trend.
HOW TO USE THE STRATEGY:
Here you fine-tune the inputs until you find a combination that works well on all Timeframes you will use when creating your Automated Trade Algorithmic Strategy. I suggest 4h, 12h, 1D, 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D, W and M.
When I ndicator/Strategy returns 0 or natural trend , Strategy Closes All it's positions.
ORIGINALITY & USFULLNESS:
Personal combination of Fourier and Wavalet aproximation of a price which results in less noise Volume Zone Oscillator.
The Wavelet Transform is a powerful mathematical tool for signal analysis, particularly effective in analyzing signals with varying frequency or non-stationary characteristics. It dissects a signal into wavelets, small waves with varying frequency and limited duration, providing a multi-resolution analysis. This approach captures both frequency and location information, making it especially useful for detecting changes or anomalies in complex signals.
The Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) is a mathematical technique that transforms discrete data from the time domain into its corresponding representation in the frequency domain. This process involves breaking down a signal into its individual frequency components, thereby exposing the amplitude and phase characteristics inherent in each frequency element.

Thus the indicator returns 0 and Strategy closes all it's positions when falling above 0 (or rising bellow 0) and we combine higher and lower timeframes to gauge the trend.
In the next Image you can see that trend is negative on 4h, negative on 12h and positive on 1D. That means trend is negative.
I am sorry, the chart is a bit messy. The idea is to use the indicator over more than 1 Timeframe.

Choose between the traditional Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) , the innovative Double Discrete Fourier Transform (DTF32) and Wavelet soothed Fourier soothed price series to suit your analytical needs.
Image of Wavelet transform with FAST settings, Double Fourier transform with FAST settings. Improved noice reduction with SLOW settings, and standard FSVZO with SLOW settings:
Fast setting are setting by default:
VZO length = 2
NoiceR max Length = 2
Slow settings are:
VZO length = 5 or 7
NoiceR max Length = 8
As you can see fast setting are more volatile. I suggest averaging fast setting on 4h 12h 1d 2d 3d 4d W and M Timeframe to get a clear view on market trend.
What if I want long only when VZO is rising and above 15 not 0?
You have set Setting VzoDifference to 15. That reduces the number of trend changes.
Example of W&FSVZO with VzoDifference 15 than 0:
VZO crossed 0 line but not 15 line and that's why Indicator returns 0 in one case an 1 in another.
What is Smooth length setting?
A way of calculating Bullish or Bearish (W&)FSVZO .
If smooth length is 2 the trend is rising if:
rising = VZO > ta.ema(VZO, 2)
Meaning that we check if VZO is higher that exponential average of the last 2 elements.
If smooth length is 1 the trend is rising if:
rising = VZO_ > VZO_
Use this Strategy to fine-tune inputs for the (W&)FSVZO Indicator.
(Strategy allows you to fine-tune the indicator for 1 TimeFrame at a time; cross Timeframe Input fine-tuning is done manually after exporting the chart data)
I suggest using " Close all " input False when fine-tuning Inputs for 1 TimeFrame . When you export data to Excel/Numbers/GSheets I suggest using " Close all " input as True , except for the lowest TimeFrame . I suggest using 100% equity as your default quantity for fine-tune purposes. I have to mention that 100% equity may lead to unrealistic backtesting results. Be avare. When backtesting for trading purposes use Contracts or USDT.
