Full Range Trading Strategy with DCA - Crypto, Forex, Stocks
Introduction
This is a Pine 4 range trading strategy. It has a twin study with several alerts. The design intent is to produce a commercial grade signal generator that can be adapted to any symbol and interval. Ideally, the script is reliable enough to be the basis of an automated trading system web-hooked to a server with API access to crypto, forex and stock brokerages. The strategy can be run in three different modes: long, short and bidirectional.
As a range trading strategy, the behavior of the script is to buy on weakness and sell on strength. As such trade orders are placed in a counter direction to price pressure. What you will see on the chart is a short position on peaks and a long position on valleys. Just to be clear, the range as well as trends are merely illusions as the chart only receives prices. However, this script attempts to calculate pivot points from the price stream. Rising pivots are shorts and falling pivots are longs. I refer to pivots as a vertex in this script which adds structural components to the chart formation. When trading in “Ping Pong” mode long and short positions are intermingled continuously as long as there exists a detectable vertex. Unfortunately, this can work against your backtest profitability on long duration trends where prices continue in a single direction without pullback. I have designed various features in the script to compensate for this event. A well configured script should perform in a range bound market and minimize losses in a trend. I also have a trend following version of this script for those not interested in trading the range. Please be aware these are two types of traders. You should know who you are.
This script employs a DCA feature which enables users to experiment with loss recovery techniques. This is an advanced feature which can increase the order size on new trades in response to stopped out or winning streak trades. The script keeps track of debt incurred from losing trades. When the debt is recovered the order size returns to the base amount specified in the TV properties tab. The inputs for this feature include a limiter to prevent your account from depleting capital during runaway markets. This implementation of DCA does not use pyramid levels. Only the order size on subsequent new trades are affected. Pyramids on the other hand increase the size of open positions. If you are interested in seeing pyramids in action please see the trend version of this script which features both DCA and pyramids. While DCA is a popular feature in crypto trading, it can make you a “bag” holder if your not careful. In other markets, especially margin trading, you’ll need a well funded account and much trading experience to manage this feature safely.
Consecutive loss limit can be set to report a breach of the threshold value. Every stop hit beyond this limit will be reported on a version 4 label above the bar where the stop is hit. Use the location of the labels along with the summary report tally to improve the adaptability of system. Don’t simply fit the chart. A good trading system should adapt to ever changing market conditions. On the study version the consecutive loss limit can be used to halt live trading on the broker side (managed manually).
Design
This script uses twelve indicators on a single time frame. The original trading algorithms are a port from a much larger program on another trading platform. I’ve converted some of the statistical functions to use standard indicators available on TradingView. The setups make heavy use of the Hull Moving Average in conjunction with EMAs that form the Bill Williams Alligator as described in his book “New Trading Dimensions” Chapter 3. Lag between the Hull and the EMAs form the basis of the entry and exit points. The vertices are calculated using one of five featured indicators. Each indicator is actually a composite of calculations which produce a distinct mean. This mathematical distinction enables the script to be useful on various instruments which belong to entirely different markets. In other words, at least one of these indicators should be able generate pivots on an arbitrarily selected instrument. Try each one to find the best fit.
The entire script is around 1800 lines of Pine code which is the maximum incidental size given the TradingView limits: local scopes, run-time duration and compile time. I’ve been working on this script for nearly two years and have tested it on various instruments stocks, forex and crypto. It performs well on higher liquidity markets that have at least a year of historical data. Although the script can be implemented on any interval, it has been optimized for small time frames down to 5 minutes. The 10 minute BTC/USD produces around 500 trades in 2 ½ months. The 1 hour BTC/USD produces around 1300 trades in 1 ½ years. Originally, this script contained both range trading and trend following logic but had to be broken into separate scripts due to the aforementioned limitations.
Inputs to the script use cone centric measurements in effort to avoid exposing adjustments to the various internal indicators. The goal was to keep the inputs relevant to the actual trade entry and exit locations as opposed to a series of MA input values and the like. As a result the strategy exposes over 50 inputs grouped into long or short sections. Inputs are available for the usual minimum profit and stop-loss as well as safeguards, trade frequency, DCA, modes, presets, reports and lots of calibrations. The inputs are numerous, I’m aware. Unfortunately, at this time, TradingView does not offer any other method to get data in the script. The usual initialization files such as cnf, cfg, ini, json and xml files are currently unsupported.
Example configurations for various instruments along with a detailed PDF user manual is available.
Indicator Repainting And Anomalies
Indicator repainting is an industry wide problem which mainly occurs when you mix backtest data with real-time data. It doesn't matter which platform you use some form of this condition will manifest itself on your chart over time. The critical aspect being whether live trades on your broker’s account continue to match your TradingView study.
Tackling this repainting issue has been a major project goal of this script. Based on my experience with Pine, most of the problems stem from TradingView’s implementation of multiple interval access. Whereas most platform provide a separate bar series for each interval requested, the Pine language interleaves higher time frames with the primary chart interval. The problem is exacerbated by allowing a look-ahead parameter to the Security function. The goal of my repaint prevention is simply to ensure that my signal trading bias remains consistent between the strategy, study and broker. That being said this is what I’ve done address this issue in this script:
1. This script uses only 1 time frame. The chart interval.
2. Every entry and exit condition is evaluated on closed bars only.
3. No security functions are called to avoid a look-ahead possibility.
4. Every contributing factor specified in the TradingView wiki regarding this issue has been addressed.
5. I’ve run a 10 minute chart live for a week and compared it to the same chart periodically reloaded. The two charts were highly correlated with no instances of completely opposite real-time signals.
The study does indeed bring up the TV warning dialog. The only reason for this is because the script uses an EMA indicator which according to TradingView is due to “peculiarities of the algorithm”.
One issue that comes up when comparing the strategy with the study is that the strategy trades show on the chart one bar later than the study. This problem is due to the fact that “strategy.entry()” and “strategy_exit()” do not execute on the same bar called. The study, on the other hand, has no such limitation since there are no position routines.
Please be aware that the data source matters. Cryptocurrency has no central tick repository so each exchange supplies TradingView its feed. Even though it is the same symbol the quality of the data and subsequently the bars that are supplied to the chart varies with the exchange. This script will absolutely produce different results on different data feeds of the same symbol. Be sure to backtest this script on the same data you intend to receive alerts for. Any example settings I share with you will always have the exchange name used to generate the test results.
Usage
The following steps provide a very brief set of instructions that will get you started but will most certainly not produce the best backtest. A trading system that you are willing to risk your hard earned capital will require a well crafted configuration that involves time, expertise and clearly defined goals. As previously mentioned, I have several example configs that I use for my own trading that I can share with you along with a PDF which describes each input in detail. To get hands on experience in setting up your own symbol from scratch please follow the steps below.
The input dialog box contains over 50 inputs separated into five sections. Each section is identified as such with a makeshift separator input. There are three main areas that must to be configured: long side, short side and settings that apply to both. The rest of the inputs apply to DCA, reporting and calibrations. The following steps address these three main areas only. You will need to get your backtest in the black before moving on to the more advanced features.
Step 1. Setup the Base currency and order size in the properties tab.
Step 2. Select the calculation presets in the Instrument Type field.
Step 3. Select “No Trade” in the Trading Mode field.
Step 4. Select the Histogram indicator from Section 2. You will be experimenting with different ones so it doesn’t matter which one you try first.
Step 5. Turn on Show Markers in Section 2.
Step 6. Go to the chart and checkout where the markers show up. Blue is up and red is down. Long trades show up along the red markers and short trades on the blue.
Step 7. Make adjustments to “Base To Vertex” and “Vertex To Base” net change and roc in Section 3. Use these fields to move the markers to where you want trades to be.
Step 8. Try a different indicator from Section 2 and repeat Step 7 until you find the best match for this instrument on this interval. This step is complete when the Vertex settings and indicator combination produce the most favorable results.
Step 9. Go to Section 3 and enable “Apply Red Base To Base Margin”.
Step 10. Go to Section 4 and enable “Apply Blue Base To Base Margin”.
Step 11. Go to Section 2 and adjust “Minimum Base To Base Blue” and “Minimum Base To Base Red”. Observe the chart and note where the markers move relative to each other. Markers further apart will produce less trades but will reduce cutoffs in “Ping Pong” mode.
Step 12. Return to Section 3 and 4 and turn off “Base To Base Margin” which was enabled in steps 9 and 10.
Step 13. Turn off Show Markers in Section 2.
Step 14. Put in your Minimum Profit and Stop Loss in the first section. This is in pips or currency basis points (chart right side scale). Percentage is not currently supported. This is a fixed value minimum profit and stop loss. Also note that the profit is taken as a conditional exit on a market order not a fixed limit. The actual profit taken will almost always be greater than the amount specified. The stop loss, on the other hand, is indeed a hard number which is executed by the TradingView broker simulator when the threshold is breached. On the study version, the stop is executed at the close of the bar.
Step 15. Return to step 3 and select a Trading Mode (Long, Short, BiDir, Ping Pong). If you are planning to trade bidirectionally its best to configure long first then short. Combine them with “BiDir” or “Ping Pong” after setting up both sides of the trade individually. The difference between “BiDir” and “Ping Pong” is that “Ping Pong” uses position reversal and can cut off opposing trades less than the specified minimum profit. As a result “Ping Pong” mode produces the greatest number of trades.
Step 16. Take a look at the chart. Trades should be showing along the markers plotted earlier.
Step 17. Make adjustments to the Vertex fields in Section 2 until the TradingView performance report is showing a profit. This includes the “Minimum Base To Base” fields. If a profit cannot be achieved move on to Step 18.
Step 18. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Long Entry Net Change” and “Long Entry ROC” in Section 3.
Step 19. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Short Entry Net Change” and “Short Entry ROC” in Section 4.
Step 20. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Sparse Long Delta” in Section 3.
Step 21. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Chase Long Delta” in Section 3.
Step 22. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Long Adherence Delta” in Section 3. This field requires the “Adhere to Rising Trend” checkbox to be enabled.
Step 23. Try each checkbox in Section 3 and see if it improves the backtest profitability. The “Caution Lackluster Longs” checkbox only works when “Long Caution Mode” is enabled.
Step 24. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Sparse Short Delta” in Section 4.
Step 25. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Chase Short Delta” in Section 4.
Step 26. Improve the backtest profitability by adjusting the “Short Adherence Delta” in Section 4. This field requires the “Adhere to Falling Trend” checkbox to be enabled.
Step 27. Try each checkbox in Section 4 and see if it improves the backtest profitability. The “Caution Lackluster Shorts” checkbox only works when “Short Caution Mode” is enabled.
Step 28. Enable the reporting conditions in Section 5. Look for long runs of consecutive losses or high debt sequences. These are indications that your trading system cannot withstand sudden changes in market sentiment.
Step 29. Examine the chart and see that trades are being placed in accordance with your desired trading goals. This is an important step. If your desired model requires multiple trades per day then you should be seeing hundreds of trades on the chart. Alternatively, you may be looking to trade fewer steep peaks and deep valleys in which case you should see trades at major turning points. Don’t simply settle for what the backtest serves you. Work your configuration until the system aligns with your desired model. Try changing indicators and even intervals if you cannot reach your simulation goals. Generally speaking, the histogram and Candle indicators produce the most trades. The Macro indicator captures the tallest peaks and valleys.
Step 30. Apply the backtest settings to the study version and perform forward testing.
This script is open for beta testing. After successful beta test it will become a commercial application available by subscription only. I’ve invested quite a lot of time and effort into making this the best possible signal generator for all of the instruments I intend to trade. I certainly welcome any suggestions for improvements. Thank you all in advance.

JackBot Scalper v6Jackbot Scalper v6 Update
In Version 6, Jackbot has improved performance on higher time frames with close to 85% success rate on 1-hour times frames and 70% success rate on 15-minute time frames.
Who
I am Jack Donaghy, a crypto trader and wealth strategist at an international asset management firm. I have traded billions in assets for clients and have grown a portfolio of personal assets by nearly 2200% within the last 1.5 years from trading. I originally invested in cryptocurrencies in November of 2016 and have been catching waves ever since. This bot is for those interested in scalping methods.
What
Jackbot Pro Scalper is a scalping study for Bitcoin that operates on small timeframes. It has a 60-70% success rate and operates with the goal of maximizing gains while minimizing losses. This bot works well with leveraged strategies as it pursues both long and short positions. While I primarily use the bot on BitMex, I have seen good success on Bitfinex with various USDT pairs including VEN and ETH.
When
With v6, the best results have come from 13, 15, and 17-minute charts with incredible success found on the 1-hour charts.
How
The bot works by 1. Defining its entry point. 2. Defining a take profit 3. Defining a stop loss. The magic of the bot is that it will not close a trade at the take profit, if volume and price are increasing, it will hold the exit until another indicator determines a reversal of the trend. More than that would ruin the logic so you will just have to see for yourself.
To Trade
Large Spikes = Entries (Green = Long, Red = Short)
Small Spikes = Take Profit (Green = Long Exit, Red = Short Exit)
Medium Spikes = Stop Loss (Purple = Long SL, Yellow = Short SL)
Previous Results
Backtested, Jackbot v6 shows that with 1 Bitcoin (unleveraged) you can make about 12K in a 1.5 month period. My personal experience was trading a test amount of Bitcoin on a particularly good run at 25x leverage using 25% of a test portfolio It went from 0.015 Bitcoin to 0.091 within 10 days. See ibb.co (This test was from V5.4 which V6 has improved upon.)
Disclaimer: This strategy is by no means perfect and not every trade will be a winner. It is a tool in your belt, not a perfect 100% trader. Previously, results show with a 25x leveraged position, the losses are ~20% before it will cut off the trade, however, the gains can be 40%+ (As the bot continues to run in certain conditions, it will often pick up major moves and hold them for longer.) It can have bad runs and a slew of poor entries, especially in tight volatile ranges.
PLEASE NOTE: This strategy can struggle with chop following major moves, if you are manually entering, consider other market conditions before entry if the price is in a tight range.
Cost
Jackbot will be offered for 0.1 Bitcoin and will be limited to the first 100 people who apply.

💡 Recommended Risk Management Rules (Professional Trader Practices)
Professional trading prioritizes **“not losing” over “winning.”**
Consistent traders operate with a clear and disciplined risk framework.
Here are the most common examples of professional risk management rules:
📉 Loss Streak Risk Control (Defensive Mode)
* Keep risk per trade below **1% of account balance**
* After **2–3 consecutive losses**, reduce risk by half (e.g., 1% → 0.5%)
* Limit daily loss to **3–5%** — stop trading once reached
* Take a break after a losing streak to avoid **mental drawdown**
📘 **Objective:** Survival first. Protecting capital is the strongest form of offense.
📈 Win Streak Risk Control (Expansion Mode)
* After 2 consecutive wins, **gradually increase risk (e.g., 1% → 1.5%)**
* Never exceed **3% total risk per trade**
* Only scale up when trading with accumulated profit — reinvest from gains, not from capital
📘 **Objective:** Use profits to grow risk *compoundedly*, but always within defined limits.
🧠 Daily Risk Management (Professional Standards)
Risk per trade : 1–2% of account balance
Max daily loss : 3–5%
Max weekly loss :10%
Minimum R:R ratio : 1 : 2 (Ideal: 1 : 3 or higher)
Profitability baseline : 40–50% win rate can still stay profitable with proper R:R control

Candle Breakout StrategyShort description (one-liner)
Candle Breakout Strategy — identifies a user-specified candle (UTC time), draws its high/low range, then enters on breakouts with configurable stop-loss, take-profit (via Risk:Reward) and optional alerts.
Full description (ready-to-paste)
Candle Breakout Strategy
Version 1.0 — Strategy script (Pine v5)
Overview
The Candle Breakout Strategy automatically captures a single "range candle" at a user-specified UTC time, draws its high/low as a visible box and dashed level lines, and waits for a breakout. When price closes above the range high it enters a Long; when price closes below the range low it enters a Short. Stop-loss is placed at the opposite range boundary and take-profit is calculated with a user-configurable Risk:Reward multiplier. Alerts for entries can be enabled.
This strategy is intended for breakout style trading where a clearly defined intraday range is established at a fixed time. It is simple, transparent and easy to adapt to multiple symbols and timeframes.
How it works (step-by-step)
On every bar the script checks the current UTC time.
When the first bar that matches the configured Target Hour:Target Minute (UTC) appears, the script records that candle’s high and low. This defines the breakout range.
A box and dashed lines are drawn on the chart to display the range and extended to the right while the range is active.
The script then waits for price to close outside the box:
Close > Range High → Long entry
Close < Range Low → Short entry
When an entry triggers:
Stop-loss = opposite range boundary (range low for longs, range high for shorts).
Take-profit = entry ± (risk × Risk:Reward). Risk is computed as the distance between entry price and stop-loss.
After entry the range becomes inactive (waitingForBreakout = false) until the next configured target time.
Inputs / Parameters
Target Hour (UTC) — the hour (0–23) in UTC when the range candle is detected.
Target Minute — minute (0–59) of the target candle.
Risk:Reward Ratio — multiplier for computing take profit from risk (0.5–10). Example: 2 means TP = entry + 2×risk.
Enable Alerts — turn on/off entry alerts (string message sent once per bar when an entry occurs).
Show Last Box Only (internal behavior) — when enabled the previous box is deleted at the next range creation so only the most recent range is visible (default behavior in the script).
Visuals & On-chart Info
A semi-transparent blue box shows the recorded range and extends to the right while active.
Dashed horizontal lines mark the range high and low.
On-chart shapes: green triangle below bar for Long signals, red triangle above bar for Short signals.
An information table (top-right) displays:
Target Time (UTC)
Active Range (Yes / No)
Range High
Range Low
Risk:Reward
Alerts
If Enable Alerts is on, the script sends an alert with the following formats when an entry occurs:
Long alert:
🟢 LONG SIGNAL
Entry Price:
Stop Loss:
Take Profit:
Short alert:
🔴 SHORT SIGNAL
Entry Price:
Stop Loss:
Take Profit:
Use TradingView's alert dialog to create alerts based on the script — select the script’s alert condition or use the alert() messages.
Recommended usage & tips
Timeframe: This strategy works on any timeframe but the definition of "candle at target time" depends on the chart timeframe. For intraday breakout styles, use 1m — 60m charts depending on the session you want to capture.
Target Time: Choose a time that is meaningful for the instrument (e.g., market open, economic release, session overlap). All times are handled in UTC.
Position Sizing: The script’s example uses strategy.percent_of_equity with 100% default — change default_qty_value or strategy settings to suit your risk management.
Filtering: Consider combining this breakout with trend filters (EMA, ADX, etc.) to reduce false breakouts.
Backtesting: Always backtest over a sufficiently large and recent sample. Pay attention to slippage and commission settings in TradingView’s strategy tester.
Known behavior & limitations
The script registers the breakout on close outside the recorded range. If you prefer intrabar breakout rules (e.g., high/low breach without close), you must adjust the condition accordingly.
The recorded range is taken from a single candle at the exact configured UTC time. If there are missing bars or the chart timeframe doesn't align, the intended candle may differ — choose the target time and chart timeframe consistently.
Only a single active position is allowed at a time (the script checks strategy.position_size == 0 before entries).
Example setups
EURUSD (Forex): Target Time 07:00 UTC — captures London open range.
Nifty / Index: Target Time 09:15 UTC — captures local session open range.
Crypto: Target Time 00:00 UTC — captures daily reset candle for breakout.
Risk disclaimer
This script is educational and provided as-is. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Use proper risk management, test on historical data, and consider slippage and commissions. Do not trade real capital without sufficient testing.
Change log
v1.0 — Initial release: range capture, box and level drawing, long/short entry by close breakout, SL at opposite boundary, TP via Risk:Reward, alerts, info table.
If you want, I can also:
Provide a short README version (2–3 lines) for the TradingView “Short description” field.
Add a couple of suggested alert templates for the TradingView alert dialog (if you want alerts that include variable placeholders).
Convert the disclaimer into multiple language versions.

******************************************************************
⚠️ Dangers of Trading
1️⃣ You can lose money very fast
Markets move quickly, and leverage makes losses even faster. Even experienced traders go through drawdowns.
2️⃣ Emotional decisions ruin accounts
Fear (selling too early) and greed (holding too long or overtrading) cause most losses. Trading is more psychological than technical.
3️⃣ Overconfidence after small wins
Many traders win at the beginning and believe they “mastered” the market, then take big risks and blow the account.
4️⃣ No system = gambling
If you trade without clear rules and risk management, you’re not trading—you’re gambling.
5️⃣ Market is not fair
Smart money, institutions, HFT algorithms, and stop-hunts exist. Retail traders are often the liquidity for bigger players.
6️⃣ News/Unexpected events
Unpredictable events (CPI, FOMC, war, tweets, etc.) can instantly move the market against your position.
✅ Advice for Safer & Smarter Trading
✅ 1. Protect your capital first
Your number one job is to survive.
Never risk more than 1–2% per trade.
✅ 2. Have a written trading plan
Define:
When to enter
When to exit
How much to risk
What conditions must be present
If your plan is not written, you don’t have a plan.
✅ 3. Use Stop Loss always
No stop loss = account suicide.
Even professional traders are wrong sometimes.
✅ 4. Focus on one strategy (mastery > trying everything)
Jumping from one strategy to another causes confusion. One good strategy with discipline beats five strategies with no consistency.
✅ 5. Trade with the trend and higher timeframe direction
Trading against HTF structure is fighting the market.
✅ 6. Control emotions like a machine
Biggest trader enemies:
Overtrading
Revenge trading
Fear of missing out (FOMO)
When emotions are strong → stop trading.
✅ 7. Be patient (best skill of a trader)
Sometimes the best trade is no trade.
Professional traders wait for high-probability setups.
✅ 8. Backtest and demo before using real money
If it doesn’t make money in backtesting or demo, it won’t magically work live.
✅ 9. Accept losses (they are part of the game)
Even the best traders lose. The key is small losses, big wins.
✅ 10. Keep learning forever
Market changes. What works today may not work tomorrow. Study price action, volume, psychology, risk management.
🧠 Final Truths:
✅ Trading is a business, not easy money
✅ Winning rate doesn’t matter—risk/reward matters
✅ Consistency > luck
✅ Discipline > knowledge
✅ Survival > profit

GEX Options Flow Pro 100% free
INTRODUCTION
This script is designed to visualize advanced options-derived metrics and levels on TradingView charts, including Gamma Exposure (GEX) walls, gamma flip points, vanna levels, delta-neutral prices (DEX), max pain, implied moves, and more. It overlays dynamic lines, labels, boxes, and an info table to highlight potential support, resistance, volatility regimes, and flow dynamics based on options data.
These visualizations aim to help users understand how options market structure might influence price action, such as areas of potential stability (positive GEX) or volatility (negative GEX). All data is user-provided via pasted strings, as Pine Script cannot fetch external options data directly due to platform limitations (detailed below).
The script is open-source under TradingView's terms, allowing study, modification, and improvement. It draws inspiration from standard options Greeks and exposure metrics (e.g., gamma, vanna, charm) discussed in financial literature like Black-Scholes models and dealer positioning analyses. No external code is copied; all logic is original or based on mathematical formulas.
Disclaimer: This is an educational tool only. It does not provide investment advice, trading signals, or guarantees of performance. Past data is not indicative of future results. Use at your own risk, and combine with your own analysis. Not intended for qualified investors only.
How the Options Levels Are Calculated
Levels are not computed in Pine Script—they rely on pre-calculated values from external tools (e.g., Python scripts using libraries like yfinance for options chains). Here's how they're typically derived externally before pasting into the script:
Fetching Options Data: Retrieve options chain for a ticker: strikes, open interest (OI), volume, implied volatility (IV), expirations (e.g., shortest: 0-7 DTE, short: 7-14 DTE, medium: ~30 DTE, long: ~90 DTE). Get current price and 5-day history for context.
Gamma Walls (Put/Call Walls): Compute gamma for each option using Black-Scholes: gamma = N'(d1) / (S * σ * √T) where S = spot price, K = strike, T = time to expiration (years), σ = IV, N'(d1) = normal PDF. Aggregate GEX at strikes: GEX = sign * gamma * OI * 100 * S^2 * 0.01 (per 1% move, with sign based on dealer positioning: typically short calls/puts = negative GEX). Put Wall: Highest absolute GEX put strike below S (support via dealer buying on dips). Call Wall: Highest absolute GEX call strike above S (resistance via dealer selling on rallies). Secondary/Tertiary: Next highest levels. Historical walls track tier-1 levels over 5 days.
Gamma Flip: Net GEX profile across prices: Sum GEX for all options at hypothetical spots. Flip point: Interpolated price where net GEX changes sign (stable above, volatile below).
Vanna Levels: Vanna = -N'(d1) * d2 / σ. Weighted by OI; highest positive/negative strikes.
DEX (Delta-Neutral Price): Net dealer delta: Sum (delta * OI * 100 * sign), with delta from Black-Scholes. DEX: Price where net delta = 0 (interpolated).
Max Pain: Strike minimizing total intrinsic value for all options holders.
Skew: 25-delta skew: IV difference between 25-delta put and call (interpolated).
Net GEX/Delta: Total signed GEX/delta at current S.
Implied Move: ATM IV * √(DTE/365) for 1σ range.
C/P Ratio: (Call OI + volume) / (Put OI + volume).
Smart Stop Loss: Below lowest support (e.g., Put Wall, gamma flip), buffered by IV * √(DTE/30).
Other Metrics: IV: ATM average. 5-day metrics: Avg volume, high/low.
External tools handle dealer assumptions (e.g., short calls/puts) and scaling (per % move).
Effect as Support and Resistance in Technical Trading
Options levels reflect dealer hedging dynamics:
Put Wall (Gamma Support): High put GEX creates buying pressure on dips (dealers hedge short puts by buying stock). Use for long entries, bounces, or stops below.
Call Wall (Gamma Resistance): High call GEX leads to selling on rallies. Good for trims, shorts, or reversals.
Gamma Flip: Pivot for volatility—above: dampened moves (positive GEX, mean reversion); below: amplified trends (negative GEX, momentum).
Vanna Levels: Sensitivity to IV changes; crosses may signal vol shifts.
DEX: Dealer delta neutral—bullish if price below with positive delta.
Max Pain: Price magnet minimizing option payouts.
Implied Move/Confidence Bands: Expected ranges (1σ/2σ/3σ); breakouts suggest extremes.
Liquidity Zones: Wall ranges as price magnets.
Smart Stop Loss: Protective level below supports, IV-adjusted.
C/P Ratio & Skew: Sentiment (high C/P = bullish; high skew = put demand).
Net GEX: Positive = low vol strategies (e.g., condors); negative = momentum trades.
Combine with TA (e.g., volume, trends). High activity strengthens effects; alerts on crosses/proximities for awareness.
Limitations of the TradingView Platform for Data Pulling
Pine Script is sandboxed:
No API calls or internet access (can't fetch options data directly).
Limited to chart/symbol data; no real-time chains.
Inputs static per load; manual updates needed.
Caching not persistent across sessions.
This ensures lightweight scripts but requires external data sourcing.
Creative Solution for On-Demand Data Pulling
Users can use external tools (e.g., Python scripts with yfinance) to fetch/compute data on demand. Generate a formatted string (ticker,timestamp|term1_data|term2_data|...), paste into inputs. Tools can process multiple tickers, cache for ~15-30 min, and output strings for quick portfolio scanning. Run locally or via custom setups for near-real-time updates without platform violations.
For convenience, a free bot is available on my website that accepts commands like !gex to generate both current data strings (for all expiration terms) and historical walls data on demand. This allows users to easily obtain fresh or cached data (refreshed every ~30 min) for pasting into the indicator—ideal for scanning portfolios without manual coding.
Script Functionality Breakdown
Inputs: Data strings (current/historical); term selector (Shortest/Short/Medium/Long); toggles (historical walls, GEX profile, secondaries, vanna, table, max pain, DEX, stop loss, implied move, liquidity, bands); colors/styles.
Parsing: Extracts term-specific data; validates ticker match; gets timestamp for freshness.
Drawing: Dynamic lines/labels (width/color by GEX strength); boxes (moves, zones, bands); clears on updates.
Info Table: Dashboard with status (freshness emoji), Greeks (GEX/delta with emojis), vol (IV/skew), levels (distances), flow (C/P, vol vs 5D).
Historical Walls: Displays past tier-1 walls on daily+ timeframes.
Alerts: 20+ conditions (e.g., near/cross walls, GEX sign change, high IV).
Performance: Efficient for real-time; smart label positioning.
Release Notes
Initial release: Full features including multi-term support, enhanced table with emojis/sentiment, dynamic visuals, smart stop loss.
Data String Format: TICKER,TIMESTAMP|TERM1_DATA|TERM2_DATA|TERM3_DATA|TERM4_DATA Where each TERM_DATA = val0,val1,...,val30 (31 floats: current_price, prev_close, call_wall_1, call_wall_1_gex, ..., low_5d). Historical: TICKER|TERM1_HIST|... where TERM_HIST = date:cw,pw;date:cw,pw;...

BOCS Channel Scalper Indicator - Mean Reversion Alert System# BOCS Channel Scalper Indicator - Mean Reversion Alert System
## WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES:
This is a mean reversion trading indicator that identifies consolidation channels through volatility analysis and generates alert signals when price enters entry zones near channel boundaries. **This indicator version is designed for manual trading with comprehensive alert functionality.** Unlike automated strategies, this tool sends notifications (via popup, email, SMS, or webhook) when trading opportunities occur, allowing you to manually review and execute trades. The system assumes price will revert to the channel mean, identifying scalp opportunities as price reaches extremes and preparing to bounce back toward center.
## INDICATOR VS STRATEGY - KEY DISTINCTION:
**This is an INDICATOR with alerts, not an automated strategy.** It does not execute trades automatically. Instead, it:
- Displays visual signals on your chart when entry conditions are met
- Sends customizable alerts to your device/email when opportunities arise
- Shows TP/SL levels for reference but does not place orders
- Requires you to manually enter and exit positions based on signals
- Works with all TradingView subscription levels (alerts included on all plans)
**For automated trading with backtesting**, use the strategy version. For manual control with notifications, use this indicator version.
## ALERT CAPABILITIES:
This indicator includes four distinct alert conditions that can be configured independently:
**1. New Channel Formation Alert**
- Triggers when a fresh BOCS channel is identified
- Message: "New BOCS channel formed - potential scalp setup ready"
- Use this to prepare for upcoming trading opportunities
**2. Long Scalp Entry Alert**
- Fires when price touches the long entry zone
- Message includes current price, calculated TP, and SL levels
- Notification example: "LONG scalp signal at 24731.75 | TP: 24743.2 | SL: 24716.5"
**3. Short Scalp Entry Alert**
- Fires when price touches the short entry zone
- Message includes current price, calculated TP, and SL levels
- Notification example: "SHORT scalp signal at 24747.50 | TP: 24735.0 | SL: 24762.75"
**4. Any Entry Signal Alert**
- Combined alert for both long and short entries
- Use this if you want a single alert stream for all opportunities
- Message: "BOCS Scalp Entry: at "
**Setting Up Alerts:**
1. Add indicator to chart and configure settings
2. Click the Alert (⏰) button in TradingView toolbar
3. Select "BOCS Channel Scalper" from condition dropdown
4. Choose desired alert type (Long, Short, Any, or Channel Formation)
5. Set "Once Per Bar Close" to avoid false signals during bar formation
6. Configure delivery method (popup, email, webhook for automation platforms)
7. Save alert - it will fire automatically when conditions are met
**Alert Message Placeholders:**
Alerts use TradingView's dynamic placeholder system:
- {{ticker}} = Symbol name (e.g., NQ1!)
- {{close}} = Current price at signal
- {{plot_1}} = Calculated take profit level
- {{plot_2}} = Calculated stop loss level
These placeholders populate automatically, creating detailed notification messages without manual configuration.
## KEY DIFFERENCE FROM ORIGINAL BOCS:
**This indicator 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 Indicator**: 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 indicator ideal for active day traders who want continuous alert opportunities within consolidation zones rather than waiting for breakout confirmation. However, increased signal frequency also means higher potential commission costs and requires disciplined trade selection when acting on alerts.
## TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
### Price Normalization Process:
The indicator 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 indicator 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 indicator 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 indicator 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. Visual markers (arrows and labels) appear on chart, and configured alerts fire immediately.
### Cooldown Filter:
An optional cooldown period (measured in bars) prevents alert spam by enforcing minimum spacing between consecutive signals. If cooldown is set to 3 bars, no new long alert 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 indicator includes a multi-timeframe ATR filter to avoid alerts during low-volatility conditions. Using request.security(), it fetches ATR values from a specified timeframe (e.g., 1-minute ATR while viewing 5-minute charts). The filter compares current ATR to a user-defined minimum threshold:
- If ATR ≥ threshold: Alerts enabled
- If ATR < threshold: No alerts fire
This prevents notifications during dead zones where mean reversion is unreliable due to insufficient price movement. The ATR status is displayed in the info table with visual confirmation (✓ or ✗).
### 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. These levels are displayed as visual lines with labels and included in alert messages for reference when manually placing orders.
### Stop Loss Placement:
Stop losses are calculated 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. SL levels are displayed on chart and included in alert notifications as suggested stop placement.
### 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.

- **Execution**: Review channel structure on alert, confirm ATR filter shows ✓, then enter manually
### For 30-60 Minute Swing Scalping with Alerts:
- 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
- **Alert Setup**: Use "New Channel Formation" to prepare for setups, then "Any Entry Signal" for execution alerts
- **Execution**: Larger timeframes allow more analysis time between alert and entry
### Webhook Integration for Semi-Automation:
- Configure alert webhook URL to connect with platforms like TradersPost, TradingView Paper Trading, or custom automation
- Alert message includes all necessary order parameters (direction, entry, TP, SL)
- Webhook receives structured data when signal fires
- External platform can auto-execute based on alert payload
- Still maintains manual oversight vs full strategy automation
## USAGE CONSIDERATIONS:
- **Manual Discipline Required**: Alerts provide opportunities but execution requires judgment. Not all alerts should be taken - consider market context, trend, and channel quality
- **Alert Timing**: Alerts fire on bar close by default. Ensure "Once Per Bar Close" is selected to avoid false signals during bar formation
- **Notification Delivery**: Mobile/email alerts may have 1-3 second delay. For immediate execution, use desktop popups or webhook automation
- **Cooldown Necessity**: Without cooldown, rapidly touching price action can generate excessive alerts. Start with 3-bar cooldown and adjust based on alert volume
- **ATR Filter Impact**: Enabling ATR filter dramatically reduces alert count but improves quality. Track filter status in info table to understand when you're receiving fewer alerts
- **Commission Awareness**: High alert frequency means high potential trade count. Calculate if your commission structure supports frequent scalping before acting on all alerts
## 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 are not included in this indicator version. Multi-timeframe ATR requires higher-tier TradingView subscription for request.security() functionality on timeframes below chart timeframe.
## KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
- **Indicator does not execute trades** - alerts are informational only; you must manually place all orders
- **Alert delivery depends on TradingView infrastructure** - delays or failures possible during platform issues
- **No position tracking** - indicator doesn't know if you're in a trade; you must manage open positions independently
- **TP/SL levels are reference only** - you must manually set these on your broker platform; they are not live orders
- **Immediate touch entry can generate many alerts** 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 TradingView Premium/Pro+ for request.security()
- **Mean reversion logic fails** in strong breakout scenarios - alerts will fire but trades may hit stops
- **No partial closing capability** - full position management is manual; you determine scaling out
- **Alerts do not account for gaps** or overnight price changes; morning alerts may be stale
## RISK DISCLOSURE:
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. This indicator provides signals for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Mean reversion strategies can experience extended drawdowns during trending markets. Alerts are not guaranteed to be profitable and should be combined with your own analysis. Stop losses may not fill at intended levels during extreme volatility or gaps. Never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose. Consider consulting a licensed financial advisor before making trading decisions. Always verify alerts against current market conditions before executing trades manually.
## ACKNOWLEDGMENT & CREDITS:
This indicator is built upon the channel detection methodology created by **AlgoAlpha** in the "Smart Money Breakout Channels" indicator. Full credit and appreciation to AlgoAlpha for pioneering the normalized volatility approach to identifying consolidation patterns. The core channel formation logic using normalized price standard deviation is AlgoAlpha's original contribution to the TradingView community.
Enhancements to the original concept include: mean reversion entry logic (vs breakout), immediate touch-based alert generation, comprehensive alert condition system with customizable notifications, multi-timeframe ATR volatility filtering, cooldown period for alert management, dual TP methods (fixed points vs channel percentage), visual TP/SL reference lines, and real-time status monitoring table. This indicator version is specifically designed for manual traders who prefer alert-based decision making over automated execution.

Description: Discover the Crypto indicator & screener, an Intelligent TradingView indicator for spotting reversals in the top 50 cryptos. Spot Bitcoin & altcoin reversals with real-time buy/sell signals, alerts & strategies for day trading, scalping & swing trading.
________________________________________
🔥 Catch Crypto Reversals with the Crypto Scanner
Looking for the perfect crypto trade setup? The Crypto Scanner, a leading TradingView indicator and screener, helps traders catch bullish and bearish reversals across the top 50 cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, Binance Coin, and more). Unlike lagging tools such as moving averages, this crypto trading strategy delivers real-time buy/sell signals for early entries and bigger profits.
It’s more than just an indicator – it’s a crypto market scanner that works 24/7, detecting reversal candlestick patterns, support/resistance zones, and momentum shifts before the crowd.
________________________________________
📊 What is the Crypto Scanner & screener?
The Crypto Scanner is a powerful TradingView crypto tool built for scalpers, day traders, and swing traders. It scans the top 50 altcoins by market cap, spotting high-probability reversal setups across all timeframes – from 1-minute scalping charts to long-term swing trades.
This tool saves time by automating crypto market analysis, helping you trade smarter, whether you’re focusing on Bitcoin, Ethereum, or fast-moving altcoins.
________________________________________
⚙️ How the Crypto Scanner Works
1. Group 1 & Group 2 Coins: Scans two predefined groups :
Group 1: Top 25 coins by market cap.
Group 2: Next 25 coins by market cap.
Displays Group 1 signals by default in a table, with green (1) for buying pressure and red (2) for selling pressure.
2. Next Steps: When a coin shows a green or red signal, open its chart via TradingView’s symbol search. Look for:
Green X below a candle for bullish signals.
Red X above a candle for bearish signals.
Enter trades when price moves above the Green X candle’s close (buy) or below the Red X candle’s close (sell), with a stop loss at the previous candle’s close.
3. Profit Targets: Aim for 2%–7% gains. If price exits the cloud area, hold until it re-enters or an opposite signal appears. Exit if stop loss is hit.
4. Signal Significance: Detects 50+ candlestick patterns (e.g., hammer, doji) after prolonged trends, confirming reversals with price action near support/resistance levels—earlier than moving average crossovers for higher profits.
5. Color-Coded Table: Shows real-time signals:
✅ Green (1): Bullish reversal (buy).
❌ Red (2): Bearish reversal (sell).
6. Support/Resistance Validation: Automatically plots key levels to confirm signals.
________________________________________
🚨 Important Disclaimer
The Crypto Scanner is not designed to catch every market move.
If price moves slowly or the specific candlestick patterns do not form during extreme downtrends or extreme uptrends, the scanner may miss the reversal.
Missing a move does not make you poorer — instead, focus on the trades that the scanner does catch.
Ride those profitable waves and let the missed opportunities go. The goal is consistency, not chasing every candle.
________________________________________
🎯 Crypto Trading Strategies: Scalping, Day Trading & Swing Trading
The Crypto Scanner isn’t just an indicator – it supports multiple strategies:
Scalping: Quick in-and-out trades with small stop losses.
Day Trading: Catch intraday reversals on Bitcoin & altcoins.
Swing Trading: Identify longer-term reversal points for higher profits.
Whether you scalp 1-minute charts or swing trade daily setups, the scanner adapts to your style.
________________________________________
🎯 Trading Rules for Success
Stop Loss :
Bullish reversal: Set at the close of the candle before the Green X.
Bearish reversal: Set at the close of the candle before the Red X.
Profit Targets:
Exit at the next support/resistance level.
Hold if price exits the cloud and continues strongly until it re-enters or an opposite signal appears.

Intraday Alpha Pro - ORB + Trend/MomentumOverview
This is a pure intraday trading strategy designed for active traders seeking to capitalize on short-term price movements using two complementary modules: Opening Range Breakout (ORB) and Trend/Momentum. The strategy operates strictly within a user-defined trading session, automatically flattening all positions at session end to avoid overnight carry. It employs a points-based exit system with a trailing stop that activates only after the target is reached, ensuring disciplined risk management. Optional Martingale position sizing is included for users who prefer aggressive scaling after losses.Key Features Pure Intraday, No Carry: Trades are confined to a user-defined session (default: 9:15 AM–3:25 PM, Monday–Sunday). All positions are closed at session end.
Non-Repainting: Entries are evaluated only on confirmed bar closes (barstate.isconfirmed), ensuring no lookahead or repainting.
Dual Signal Modules: Opening Range Breakout (ORB): Captures breakouts above/below the high/low of a user-defined opening range (default: 9:15 AM–9:30 AM).
Trend/Momentum: Combines EMA (9/21) crossovers, RSI filters, volume confirmation, and an optional 200-period MA trend filter for robust trend-following signals.
Points-Based Exits: Uses fixed stop-loss (slPoints, default 16 points) and take-profit (tpPoints, default 32 points) distances. Once the take-profit level is reached, a trailing stop (trailDistPts, default 10 points) activates, ratcheting monotonically to lock in gains.
Martingale Sizing (Optional): Allows position size increases after losses (up to maxQtyInput) with a reset option after wins.
Cooldown Period: Prevents immediate re-entries after exits using a configurable cooldown (cooldownBars).
Flexible Inputs: Toggle long/short entries, enable/disable ORB or Trend/Momentum modules, and customize all parameters (e.g., MA lengths, RSI thresholds, volume multiplier).
Visuals & Alerts: Plots ORB high/low lines and moving averages (9, 21, 200). Includes alerts for long/short entries and end-of-day flattening.
How It Works Session Management: Trades only within the specified tradeSes (default: 9:15 AM–3:25 PM). The ORB module uses a separate orbSes (default: 9:15 AM–9:30 AM) to calculate breakout levels. Positions are closed automatically at session end.
Entry Conditions: ORB: Long when price closes above the ORB high after the ORB session ends; short when price closes below the ORB low.
Trend/Momentum: Long on fast MA (default EMA 9) crossing above slow MA (default EMA 21), with RSI above rsiBuy (default 55), volume exceeding volMult (default 1.5x prior bar), and price above the 200-period MA (if enabled). Shorts use the inverse.
Exit Logic: Stop-loss is set at entry price ± slPoints.
Take-profit is monitored using a running high/low since entry. Once price moves tpPoints in profit, the stop trails at trailDistPts behind the current price, adjusting only in the favorable direction (never loosening).
Exits use strategy.exit with stop only (no limit orders).
Position Sizing: Default size is baseQtyInput (minimum 1 contract). With useMartingale enabled, size increases by martingaleFactor after a loss, capped at maxQtyInput. If resetOnWin is true, size resets to baseQtyInput after a winning trade.
Cooldown: After an exit, no new trades are allowed for cooldownBars to prevent overtrading.
Futures-Safe Volume: Volume filter accommodates markets with missing or zero volume data (e.g., futures), ensuring signals aren’t blocked unnecessarily.
Inputs Trading Session: tradeSes (e.g., "0915-1525:1234567") and orbSes (e.g., "0915-0930:1234567").
Toggles: enableLong, enableShort, useORB, useTrendMom, useTrendFilter (200-MA).
Trend/Momentum: maType (EMA/SMA), fastLen (9), slowLen (21), trendLen (200), rsiLen (14), rsiBuy (55), rsiSell (45), volMult (1.5).
Exits: slPoints (16), tpPoints (32), trailDistPts (10).
Martingale: useMartingale, baseQtyInput, maxQtyInput, martingaleFactor, resetOnWin.
Cooldown: cooldownBars (1).
Legacy (Ignored): tp1RR, tp2RR, tp3RR, tp1Pct, tp2Pct, tp3Pct, stepTrail for backward compatibility.
Usage Notes Best suited for liquid, intraday markets (e.g., futures like ES, NQ, or forex pairs).
Adjust slPoints, tpPoints, and trailDistPts to match instrument volatility.
Use useMartingale cautiously, as it increases risk after losses.
Ensure tradeSes and orbSes align with your market’s trading hours.
Alerts can be set for long/short entries and EOD flattening.
The strategy avoids lookahead and repainting, ensuring reliability in live trading.
Risk Warning
Trading involves significant risk. Backtest thoroughly and use appropriate risk management. The Martingale option can amplify losses if not carefully monitored. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Power Earnings Gap Screener Pro [LevelUp]Customizable Pine Screener to scan for stocks with a Power Earnings Gap as well as accelerating earnings and sales. Historical analysis shows that strong earnings often trigger institutional buying, pushing prices higher and increasing the likelihood of sustained price gains.
🔹 Power Earnings Gap (PEG)
A power earnings gap refers to a significant price gap up after an earnings report, reflecting a rapid shift in investor sentiment and perceived value. It’s called "power" because the move is often sharp, sustained, and accompanied by high trading volume, signaling a potential trend continuation or reversal.
A gap is the difference between the closing price of a stock on the day before an earnings report and the opening price the next trading day. A power earnings gap typically exceeds a certain threshold (e.g., 8-10% or more) and is driven by earnings surprises, guidance changes, or other significant news.
Strong earnings beats, misses, or forward-looking guidance can trigger these gaps. For example, a company reporting higher-than-expected profits or raising guidance might gap up, while a miss or weak outlook could cause a gap down.
The gap is often accompanied by above-average trading volume, confirming the move's strength. Power gaps often lead to sustained price movement in the direction of the gap (continuation) or signal a reversal if the gap fills quickly.
How Power Earnings Gap Be Helpful
▪ Power earnings gaps often indicate strong momentum. Traders can capitalize on this by entering trades in the direction of the gap (e.g., buying on a gap-up if the trend continues).
Example: If a stock gaps up 10% after a stellar earnings report and shows high volume, traders might buy, expecting further upside as momentum builds.
▪ Breakout Opportunities: A gap through key technical levels (e.g., resistance or support) can signal a breakout. Traders use these gaps to identify potential long-term trends.
Example: A stock breaking above a resistance level on a power earnings gap may continue to rally, offering a setup for swing or position traders.
▪ Volatility for Short-Term Trades: Earnings gaps create heightened volatility, ideal for day traders or scalpers. The large price swings allow for quick profits if timed correctly.
Example: A trader might use options (e.g., calls for a gap-up, puts for a gap-down) to leverage the volatility around earnings.
▪ Confirmation of Fundamental Strength/Weakness: A power earning gap often reflects a fundamental shift, e.g., strong earnings growth or a major business development. Traders can use this to align technical setups with fundamental catalysts.
Example: A gap-up after a company raises its full-year guidance might signal a long-term buying opportunity.
▪ Risk Management and Stop Losses: Gaps provide clear levels for setting stop-loss orders. For instance, traders might place stops at or below the gap up bar low to protect against a potential reversal.
Example: If a stock gaps up from $100 to $110 and intraday hits a low of $105, a trader might set a stop at $105 or lower to limit downside risk.
▪ Gap Fill Strategies:Some traders bet on gaps filling, i.e., the stock returning to its pre-gap price. If a power earnings gap seems overextended (e.g., due to market overreaction), contrarian traders might short a gap-up or buy a gap-down, anticipating a pullback.
Example: A stock gaps up 15% but lacks volume or follow-through; a trader might short it, expecting the price to retreat.
🔹 Earnings and Sales Acceleration
Earnings and sales acceleration refers to the rate of growth in a company's earnings over consecutive quarters. It highlights companies that are not only growing but doing so at an accelerating pace, signaling improving financial health and operational momentum. This metric is derived from earnings reports, which detail a company’s financial performance.
Key Concepts
▪ Earnings Acceleration: When a company’s earnings per share (EPS) growth rate increases over time (e.g., EPS growth of 10% in Q1, 15% in Q2, 20% in Q3). It indicates improving profitability, often due to cost efficiencies, margin expansion and strong demand.
▪ Sales Acceleration: When revenue growth rates increase over time (e.g., revenue growth of 5% in Q1, 8% in Q2, 12% in Q3). This reflects rising demand for products/services and operational efficiency.
▪ Relation to Earnings Reports: Acceleration is calculated by comparing sequential quarter-over-year growth rates in earnings and sales, often highlighted in earnings reports or analyst commentary. It’s a sign of fundamental strength when both metrics accelerate together.
How It’s Helpful to Traders
▪ Identify High-Potential Stocks: Stocks with accelerating earnings and sales often attract investor attention, as they signal a company is outperforming expectations and gaining market share. This can lead to sustained price appreciation.
Example: A tech company reporting 20% EPS growth and 15% sales growth quarter-over-quarter may see bullish price action as investors bet on continued momentum.
▪ Momentum Trading Opportunities: Acceleration often fuels stock price momentum, especially post-earnings. Traders can ride these trends using technical setups like breakouts or pullbacks.
Example: A stock breaking above a key resistance level after reporting accelerating growth may be a buy signal for swing traders.
▪ Early Indicator of Breakouts: Companies with accelerating fundamentals are more likely to experience price breakouts, as institutional investors (e.g., hedge funds, mutual funds) pile in. Traders can use this to position early.
Example: A retailer with accelerating sales due to strong holiday demand might gap up post-earnings, offering a breakout trade.
▪ Confirmation of Fundamental Strength: Acceleration validates a company’s growth story, reducing the risk of investing in stocks with inconsistent performance. Traders can align technical trades with strong fundamentals.
Example: A biotech with accelerating sales from a new drug launch may sustain a rally, giving traders confidence in long positions.
▪ Volatility for Short-Term Trades: Earnings reports showing acceleration often lead to significant price gaps or volatility, creating opportunities for day traders or options traders.
Example: A trader might buy call options on a stock expected to report accelerating earnings, anticipating a sharp post-earnings move.

Rachas ATR AssistHey Traders!
This indicator is a simple, it uses Average True Range (ATR) data from the daily chart and the current timeframe to estimate potential range and volatility.
This indicator compares the daily ATR to the current daily wick range (from low to high), helping you gauge how much "room" might be left for price movement within the day. Alongside that, it shows the ATR over the last 14 candles and 5 candles on your current chart for intraday volatility awareness—ideal for setting stops, targets, or position sizing.
Gauge Daily Potential Movement:
The "Day Range Difference" cell shows how much of the expected daily range (based on ATR) is still unfilled. If the market has moved less than the average, there's still potential for expansion. If it's close to or above the ATR, expect a slowdown or reversal.
Position Sizing & Stop Losses:
Use the 14-period ATR and 5-period ATR on your current timeframe to understand recent volatility. This helps in choosing logical stop loss levels and adjusting position sizes based on market conditions.
Volatility Awareness:
Knowing the average daily range and how much of it has been used lets you avoid entering trades too late in the move or placing stops in overly tight spots.
Table Position & Font:
You can adjust the table location (top/bottom left/right) and font size to best fit your chart layout.
Volatility Layered Supertrend [NLR]We’ve all used Supertrend, but do you know where to actually enter a trade? Volatility Layered Supertrend (VLS) is here to solve that! This advanced trend-following indicator builds on the classic Supertrend by not only identifying trends and their strength but also guiding you to the best trade entry points. VLS divides the main long-term trend into “Strong” and “Weak” Zones, with a clear “Trade Entry Zone” to help you time your trades with precision. With layered trends, dynamic profit targets, and volatility-adaptive bands, VLS delivers actionable signals for any market.
Why I Created VLS Over a Plain Supertrend
I built VLS to address the gaps in traditional Supertrend usage and make trade entries clearer:
Single-Line Supertrend Issues: The default Supertrend sets stop-loss levels that are too wide, making it impractical for most traders to use effectively.
Unclear Entry Points: Standard Supertrend doesn’t tell you where to enter a trade, often leaving you guessing or entering too early or late.
Multi-Line Supertrend Enhancement: Many traders use short, medium, and long Supertrends, which is helpful but can lack focus. In VLS, I include Short, Medium, and Long trends (using multipliers 1 to 3), and add multipliers 4 and 5 to track extra long-term trends—helping to avoid fakeouts that sometimes occur with multiplier 3.
My Solution: I focused on the main long-term Supertrend and split it into “Weak Zone” and “Strength Zone” to show the trend’s reliability. I also defined a “Trade Entry Zone” (starting from the Mid Point, with the first layer’s background hidden for clarity) to guide you on where to enter trades. The zones include Short, Medium, and Long Trend layers for precise entries, exits, and stop-losses.
Practical Trading: This approach provides realistic stop-loss levels, clear entry points, and a “Profit Target” line that aligns with your risk tolerance, while filtering out false signals with longer-term trends.
Key Features
Layered Trend Zones: Short, Medium, Long, and Extra Long Trend layers (up to multipliers 4 and 5) for timing entries and exits.
Strong & Weak Zones: See when the trend is reliable (Strength Zone) or needs caution (Weak Zone).
Trade Entry Zone: A dedicated zone starting from the Mid Point (first layer’s background hidden) to show the best entry points.
Dynamic Profit Targets: A “Profit Target” line that adjusts with the trend for clear goals.
Volatility-Adaptive: Uses ATR to adapt to market conditions, ensuring reliable signals.
Color-Coded: Green for uptrends, red for downtrends—simple and clear.
How It Works
VLS enhances the main long-term Supertrend by dividing it into two zones:
Weak Zone: Indicates a less reliable trend—use tighter stop-losses or wait for the price to reach the Trade Entry Zone.
Strength Zone: Signals a strong trend—ideal for entries with wider stop-losses for bigger moves.
The “Trade Entry Zone” starts at the Mid Point (last layer’s background hidden for clarity), showing you the best area to enter trades. Each zone includes Short, Medium, Long, and Extra Long Trend sublevels (up to multipliers 4 and 5) for precise trade timing and to filter out fakeouts. The “Profit Target” updates dynamically based on trend direction and volatility, giving you a clear goal.
How to Use
Spot the Trend: Green bands = buy, red bands = sell.
Check Strength: Price in Strength Zone? Trend’s reliable—trade confidently. In Weak Zone? Use tighter stops or wait.
Enter Trades: Use the “Trade Entry Zone” (from the Mid Point upward) for the best entry points.
Use Sublevels: Short, Medium, Long, and Extra Long layers in each zone help fine-tune entries and exits.
Set Targets: Follow the Profit Target line for goals—it updates automatically.
Combine Tools: Pair with RSI, MACD, or support/resistance for added confirmation.
Settings
ATR Length: Adjust the ATR period (default 10) to change sensitivity.
Up/Down Colors: Customize colors—green for up, red for down, by default.
Long Term Profitable Swing | AbbasA Story of a Profitable Swing Trading Strategy
Imagine you're sailing across the ocean, looking for the perfect wave to ride. Swing trading is quite similar—you're navigating the stock market, searching for the ideal moments to enter and exit trades. This strategy, created by Abbas, helps you find those waves and ride them effectively to profitable outcomes.
🌊 Finding the Perfect Wave (Entry)
Our journey begins with two simple signs that tell us a great trading opportunity is forming:
- Moving Averages: We use two lines that follow price trends—the faster one (EMA 16) reacts quickly to recent price moves, and the slower one (EMA 30) gives us a longer-term perspective. When the faster line crosses above the slower line, it's like a clear signal saying, "Hey! The wave is rising, and prices might move higher!"
- RSI Momentum: Next, we check a tool called the RSI, which measures momentum (how strongly prices are moving). If the RSI number is above 50, it means there's enough strength behind this rising wave to carry us forward.
When both signals appear together, that's our green light. It's time to jump on our surfboard and start riding this promising wave.
⚓ Safely Riding the Wave (Risk Management)
While we're riding this wave, we want to ensure we're safe from sudden surprises. To do this, we use something called the Average True Range (ATR), which measures how volatile (or bumpy) the price movements are:
- Stop-Loss: To avoid falling too hard, we set a safety line (stop-loss) 8 times the ATR below our entry price. This helps ensure we exit if the wave suddenly turns against us, protecting us from heavy losses.
- Take Profit: We also set a goal to exit the trade at 11 times the ATR above our entry. This way, we capture significant profits when the wave reaches a nice high point.

This strategy allows us to take multiple positions simultaneously—like riding several waves at once, up to 5. Each trade we make uses only 10% of our trading capital, keeping risks manageable and giving us multiple opportunities to win big.
🗺️ Easy to Follow Settings
Here are the basic settings we use:
- Fast EMA**: 16
- Slow EMA**: 30
- RSI Length**: 9
- RSI Threshold**: 50
- ATR Length**: 21
- ATR Stop-Loss Multiplier**: 8
- ATR Take-Profit Multiplier**: 11
These settings are flexible—you can adjust them to better suit different markets or your personal trading style.
🎉 Riding the Waves of Success
This simple yet powerful swing trading approach helps you confidently enter trades, clearly know when to exit, and effectively manage your risk. It’s a reliable way to ride market waves, capture profits, and minimize losses.
Happy trading, and may you find many profitable waves to ride! 🌊✨
Please test, and take into account that it depends on taking multiple longs within the swing, and you only get to invest 25/30% of your equity.
AO Smart Scalper – 5M Dynamic SL Edition📈 AO Signals with Fixed and Dynamic SL – Optimized for 5-Minute Charts 📉
This indicator is built for 5-minute timeframe trading, combining powerful momentum signals from the Awesome Oscillator (AO) with both Fixed and Dynamic Stop Loss (SL) levels to enhance trade management and risk control.
✅ Buy/Sell Signals:
The indicator generates clear BUY and SELL signals based on the AO crossing above or below the zero line, helping traders capture momentum shifts early.
🛑 Fixed Stop Loss:
Each trade signal comes with a Fixed SL, calculated based on the high (for shorts) or low (for longs) of the previous candle, with a customizable percentage offset. This SL is plotted with a red line, providing a clear initial risk level.
⚡ Dynamic Stop Loss: Continuous Presence, Strategic Use:
A secondary Dynamic SL line is plotted, which is continuously present on the chart. This dynamic level responds to market conditions and can serve as a trailing stop or key decision point.
💡 Recommended Use: It is recommended to actively start using the Dynamic SL once the trade has moved into profit. This allows protecting obtained profits and minimizing the risk of losses in case of a market reversal.
🛡️ Enhanced Dynamic Stop-Loss Strategy:
🔒 Initial Protection: Utilize the Fixed SL as the initial stop-loss, placed below relevant lows (for longs) or above relevant highs (for shorts), or as provided by the fixed SL indicator.
🛤️ Dynamic Tracking:
🟢 Long Trades: Once in profit, the Dynamic SL will dynamically adjust, moving upwards as higher lows are formed, effectively trailing the price and securing profits.
🔴 Short Trades: Conversely, in short trades, once in profit, the Dynamic SL will move downwards as lower highs are formed, protecting gains.
🔄 Alternatively the dynamic stop loss will follow the dynamic SL line provided by the indicator.
🚪 Exiting Trades: When the price crosses below the Dynamic SL line in a LONG trade, or above it in a SHORT trade, the recommended action is to exit the trade.
↩️ Re-entry Consideration: You may consider re-entering only if the price clearly returns above the Dynamic SL (for longs) or below it (for shorts).
⚠️ IMPORTANT - 5-Minute Strategy Guidance ⏱️
This tool is specifically optimized for the 5-minute timeframe. This approach helps filter out weak setups and maintain discipline in volatile market conditions.
✨ Additional Features:
👁️ Visual and editable SL levels
📊 200-period SMA for trend context
💻 Simple and effective interface for intraday trading setups
🎯 Ideal for traders seeking a clean, rule-based system that combines momentum entry signals with layered stop loss protection.
🔑 Key Changes:
It was emphasized that the Dynamic SL is always present, but its active use is recommended once the trade is in profit.
It was clarified the use of the Fixed SL, giving the option to use the one provided by the indicator, or to place it according to the price action.

Conclusion
1. Intro
This is the first multi-asset strategy available on TradingView—a market breadth multi-asset trading strategy with integrated webhooks, backtesting capabilities, and essential strategy components like Take Profit, Stop Loss, Trailing, Hedging, Time & Session Filters, and Alerts.
How It Trades? At the start of each new bar, one asset from a set of eight is selected to go long or short. As long there is available cash and the selected asset meets the minimum criteria.
The selection process works through a voting system, similar to a democracy. Each asset is evaluated using up to five indicators that the user can choose. The asset with the highest overall voting score is picked for the trade. If no asset meets all criteria, no trade is executed, and the cash reserve remains untouched for future opportunities.
How to Set Up This Market Breadth Strategy:
Choose eight assets from the same market (e.g., cryptos or big tech stocks).
Select one to five indicators for the voting system.
Refine the strategy by adjusting Take Profit, Stop Loss, Hedging, Trailing, and Filters.
2. Voting as the included Trade Concept
The world of financial trading is filled with both risks and opportunities, and the key challenge is to identify the right opportunities, manage risks, and do both right on time.
There are countless indicators designed to spot opportunities and filter out risks, but no indicator is perfect—they only work statistically, hitting the right signals more often than the wrong ones.
The goal of this strategy is to increase the accuracy of these Indicators by:
Supervising a larger number of assets
Filtering out less promising opportunities
This is achieved through a voting system that compares indicator values across eight different assets. It doesn't just compare long trades—it also evaluates long vs. short positions to identify the most promising trade.
Why focus on one asset class? While you can randomly select assets from different asset classes, doing so prevents the algorithm from identifying the strongest asset within a single class. Think about, within one asset class there is often a major trend whereby different asset classes has not really such behavior.
And, you don’t necessarily need trading in multiple classes—this algorithm is designed to generate profits in both bullish and bearish markets. So when ever an asset class rise or fall the voting system ensure to jump on the strongest asset. So this focusing on one asset class is an integral part of this strategy. This all leads to more stable and robust trading results compared to handling each asset separately.
3. Included Indicators and Compare-Functions
You can choose from 17 different indicators, each offering different types of signals:
Some provide a directional signal
Some offer a simple on/off signal
Some provide both
Available Indicators: RSI, Stochastic RSI, MFI, Price, Volume, Volume Oscillator, Pressure, Bilson Gann Trend, Confluence, TDI, SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, VWAP, ZLMA, T3MA
However, these indicators alone do not generate trade signals. To do so, they must be compared with thresholds or other indicators using specific comparison functions.
Example – RSI as a Trade Signal. The RSI provides a value between 0 and 100. A common interpretation is:
RSI over 80 → Signal to go short or exit a long trade
RSI under 20 → Signal to go long or exit a short trade
Here, two comparison functions and two thresholds are used to determine trade signals.
Below is the full set of available comparison functions, where: I represents the indicator’s value and A represents the comparator’s value.
I < A if I smaller A then trade signal
I > A if I bigger A then trade signal
I = A if I equal to A then trade signal
I != A if I not equal to A then trade signal
A <> B if I bigger A and I smaller B then trade signal
A >< B if I smaller A then long trade signal or if I bigger B then short trade signal
Image 1
In Image 1, you can see one of five input sections, where you define an indicator along with its function, comparator, and constants. For our RSI example, we select:
Indicator: RSI
Function: >< (greater/less than)
Comparator: Constant
Constants: A = 20, B = 80
With these settings a go short signal is triggered when RSI crosses above 80. And a go long signal is triggered when RSI crosses below 20.
Relative Strength Indicator: The RSI from the public TradingView library provides a directional trade signal. You can adjust the price source and period length in the indicator settings.
Stochastic Relative Strength Indicator: As above the Stoch RSI offers a trade signal with direction. It is calculated out of the RSI, the stochastic derivation and the SMA from the Tradingview library. You can set the in-going price source and the period length for the RSI, for the Stochastic Derivation and for the SMA as blurring in the Indicator settings section.
Money Flow Indicator: As above the MFI from the public Tradingview library offers a trade signal with direction. You can set the in-going price source and the period length in the Indicator settings section.
Price: The Price as Indicator is as simple as it can be. You can chose Open, High, Low or Close or combinations of them like HLC3 or even you can import an external Indicator. The absolute price or value can later be used to generate a trade signals when certain constant thresholds or other indicators signals are crossed.
Volume: Similar as above the Volume as Indicator offers the average volume as absolute value. You can set the period length for the smoothing and you can chose where it is presented in the base currency $ or is the other. For example the trade pair BTCUSD you can chose to present the value in $ or in BTC.
Volume Oscillator: The Volume Oscillator Indicator offers a value in the range of . Whereby a value close to 0 means that the volume is very low. A value around 1 means the volume is same high as before and Values higher as 1 means the volume is bigger then before. You can set the period length for the smoothing and you can chose where it is presented in the base currency $ or is the other. For example the trade pair BTCUSD you can chose to present the value in $ or in BTC.
Pressure Indicator: The Pressure is an adapted version of LazyBear's script (Squeeze Momentum Indicator) Pressure is a Filter that highlight bars before a bigger price move in any direction. The result are integer numbers between 0 and 4 whereby 0 means no bigger price move excepted, while 4 means huge price move expected. You can set the in-going price source and the period length in the Indicator settings section.
Bilson Gann Trend: The Bilson Gann Trend Indicator is a specific re-implementation of the widely known Bilson Gann Count Algorithm to detect Highs and Lows. On base of the last four Highs and Lows a trend direction can be calculated. It is based on 2 rules to confirm a local pivot candidate. When a local pivot candidate is confirmed, let it be a High then it looks for Lows to confirm. The result range is whereby -1 means down trend, 1 means uptrend and 0 sideways.
Confluence: The Confluence Indicator is a simplified version of Dale Legan's "Confluence" indicator written by Gary Fritz. It uses five SMAs with different periods lengths. Whereby the faster SMA get compared with the (slower) SMA with the next higher period lengths. Is the faster SMA smaller then the slower SMA then -1, otherwise +1. This is done with all SMAs and the final sum range between . Whereby values around 0 means price is going side way, Crossing under 0 means trend change from bull to bear. Is the value>2 means a strong bull trend and <-2 a strong bear trend.
Trades Dynamic Index: The TDI is an adapted version from the "Traders Dynamic Index" of LazyBear. The range of the result is whereby 2 means Top goShort, -2 means Bottom goLong, 0 is neutral, 1 is up trend, -1 is down trend.
Simple Moving Average: The SMA is the one from the Tradingview library. You can compare it with the last close price or any other moving average indicator to indicate up and down trends. You can set the in-going price source and the period length in the Indicator settings section.
Exponential Moving Average: The EMA as above is the one from the Tradingview library. You can compare it with the last close price or any other moving average indicator to indicate up and down trends. You can set the in-going price source and the period length in the Indicator settings section.
Weighted Moving Average: The WMA as above is the one from the Tradingview library. You can compare it with the last close price or any other moving average indicator to indicate up and down trends. You can set the in-going price source and the period length in the Indicator settings section.
Hull Moving Average: HMA as above is the one from the Tradingview library. You can compare it with the last close price or any other moving average indicator to indicate up and down trends. You can set the in-going price source and the period length in the Indicator settings section.
Volume Weighted Average Price: The VWAP as above is the one from the Tradingview library. You can compare it with the last close price or any other moving average indicator to indicate up and down trends. You can set the in-going price source in the Indicator settings section.
Zero Lag Moving Average: The ZLMA by John Ehlers and Ric Way describe in their paper: www.mesasoftware.com
As the other moving averages you can compare it with the last close price or any other moving average indicator to indicate up and down trends. You can set the in-going price source and the period length in the Indicator settings section.
T3 Moving Average: The T3MA is the one from the Tradingview library. You can compare it with the last close price or any other moving average indicator to indicate up and down trends. You can set the in-going price source, the period length and a factor in the Indicator settings section. Keep this factor at 1 and the T3MA swing in the same range as the input. Bigger 1 and it swings over. Factors close to 0 and the T3MA becomes a center line.
All MA's following the price. The function to compare any MA Indicators would be < or > to generate a trade direction. An example follows in the next section.
4. Example and Usage
In this section, you see how to set up the strategy using a simple example. This example was intentionally chosen at random and has not undergone any iterations to refine the trade results.
We use the RSI as the trade signal indicator and apply a filter using a combination of two moving averages (MAs). The faster MA is an EMA, while the slower MA is an SMA. By comparing these two MAs, we determine a trend direction. If the faster MA is above the slower MA the trend is upwards etc. This trend direction can then be used for filtering trades.
The strategy follows these rules:
If the RSI is below 20, a buy signal is generated.
If the RSI is above 80, a sell signal is generated.
However, this RSI trade signal is filtered so that a trade is only given the maximum voting weight if the RSI trade direction aligns with the trend direction determined by the MA filter.
So first, you need to add your chosen assets or simply keep the default ones. In Image 2, you can see one of the eight asset input sections.
Image 2
This strategy offers some general trade settings that apply equally to all assets and some asset-specific settings. This distinction is necessary because some assets have higher volatility than others, requiring asset-specific Take Profit and Stop Loss levels.
Once you have made your selections, proceed to the Indicators and Compare Functions for the voting. Image 3 shows an example of this setup.
Image 3
Later on go to the Indicator specific settings shown in Image 4 to refine the trade results.
Image 4
For refine the trade results take also a look on the result summary table, development of capital plot, on the list of closed and open trades and screener table shown in Image 5.
Image 5
To locate any trade for any asset in the chronological and scroll-able trade list, each trade is marked with a label:
An opening label displaying the trade direction, ticker ID, trade number, invested amount, and remaining cash reserves.
A closing label showing the closing reason, ticker ID, trade number, trade profit (%), trade revenue ($), and updated cash reserves.
Additionally: a green line marks each Take Profit level. An orange line indicates the (trailing) Stop Loss.
The summary table in the bottom-left corner provides insights into how effective the trade strategy is. By analyzing the trade list, you can identify trades that should be avoided.
To find those bad trades on the chart, use the trade number or timestamp. With replay mode, you can go back in time to review a specific trade in detail.
Image 6
In Image 6, you can see an example where replay mode and the start time filter are used to display specific trades within a narrow time range. By identifying a large number of bad trades, you may recognize patterns and formulate conditions to avoid them in the future.
This is the backtesting tool that allows you to develop and refine your trading strategy continuously. With each iteration—from general adjustments to detailed optimizations—you can use these tools to improve your strategy. You can:
Add other indicators with trade signals and direction
Add more indicators signals as filter
Adjust the settings of your indicators to optimize results
Configure key strategy settings, such as Time and Session Filters, Stop Loss, Take Profit, and more
By doing so, you can identify a profitable strategy and its optimal settings.
5. Settings Menu
In the settings menu you will find the following high-lighted sections. Most of the settings have a i mark on their right side. Move over it with the cursor to read specific explanation.
Backtest Results: Here you can decide about visibility of the trade list, of the Screener Table and of the Results Summary. And the colors for bullish, side ways, bearish and no signal. Go above and see Image 5.
Time Filter: You can set a Start time or deactivate it by leave it unhooked. The same with End Time and Duration Days . Duration Days can also count from End time in case you deactivate Start time.
Session Filter: Here, you can chose to activate trading on a weekly basis, specifying which days of the week trading is allowed and which are excluded. Additionally, you can configure trading on a daily basis, setting the start and end times for when trades are permitted. If activated, no new trades will be initiated outside the defined times and sessions.
Trade Logic: Here you can set an extra time frame for all indicators. You can enable Longs or Shorts or both trades.
The min Criteria percentage setting defines the minimum number of voices an asset has to get to be traded. So if you set this to 50% or less also weak winners of the voting get traded while 100% means that the winner of the voting has to get all possible voices.
Additionally, you have the option to delay entry signals. This feature is particularly useful when trade signals exhibit noise and require smoothing.
Enable Trailing Stop and force the strategy to trade only at bar closing. Other-ways the strategy trade intrabar, so when ever a voting present an asset to trade, it will send the alert and the webhooks.
The Hedging is basic as shown in the following Image 7 and serves as a catch if price moves fast in the wrong direction. You can activate a hedging mechanism, which opens a trade in the opposite direction if the price moves x% against the entry price. If both the Stop Loss and Hedging are triggered within the same bar, the hedging action will always take precedence.
Image 6
Indicators to use for Trade Signal Generating: Here you chose the Indicators and their Compare Function for the Voting . Any activated asset will get their indicator valuation which get compared over all assets. The asset with the highest valuation is elected for the trade as long free cash is present and as long the minimum criteria are met.
The Screener Table will show all indicators results of the last bar of all assets. Those indicator values which met the threshold get a background color to high light it. Green for bullish, red for bearish and orange for trade signals without direction. If you chose an Indicator here but without any compare function it will show also their results but with just gray background.
Indicator Settings: here you can setup the indicator specific settings. for deeper insights see 3. Included Indicators and Compare-Functions .
Assets, TP & SL Settings: Asset specific settings. Chose here the TickerID of all Assets you wanna trade. Take Profit 1&2 set the target prices of any trade in relation to the entry price. The Take Profit 1 exit a part of the position defined by the quantity value. Stop Loss set the price to step out when a trade goes the wrong direction.
Invest Settings: Here, you can set the initial amount of cash to start with. The Quantity Percentage determines how much of the available cash is allocated to each trade, while the Fee percentage specifies the trading fee applied to both opening and closing positions.
Webhooks: Here, you configure the License ID and the Comment . This is particularly useful if you plan to use multiple instances of the script, ensuring the webhooks target the correct positions. The Take Profit and Stop Loss values are displayed as prices.

The chart will immediately show the best results of the default Auto mode. You can switch Part's to try to find even better results in the table.
Now you can display any result from the table on the chart by entering its ID in the settings.
Repeat steps 3-4 until you determine which type of Stop Loss you like best. Then set it in the settings instead of Auto mode.
* Example: I flipped through 14 parts before I liked the first result and entered its ID so I could visually evaluate it on the chart.
Then select the stop loss type, choose it in place of Auto mode and repeat steps 3-4 or immediately follow the recommendations of the algorithm.
Now the Genetic Algorithm at the bottom right will prompt you to enter the Parameters you need to search for and select even better results.
Parameters must be entered All at once before they are updated. Enter recommendations strictly in fields with the same names.
Repeat steps 5-6 until there are approximately 10 Part's left or as you like. And after that, easily pour through the remaining Parts and select the best parameters.
━ Example of the finished result.
━ Example of use with Takes
You can also test at the same time along with Take Profit. In this example, I simply enabled Risk/Reward mode and immediately specified in the TP field Maximum RR, Minimum RR and Step.

⭕️ How it Works
Hypothesis of Uniform Distribution of Rare Elements After Mixing.
'This hypothesis states that if an array of N elements contains K valid elements, then after mixing, these valid elements will be approximately uniformly distributed.'
'This means that in a random sample of k elements, the proportion of valid elements should closely match their proportion in the original array, with some random variation.'
'According to the central limit theorem, repeated sampling will result in an average count of valid elements following a normal distribution.'
'This supports the assumption that the valid elements are evenly spread across the array.'
'To test this hypothesis, we can conduct an experiment:'
'Create an array of 1,000,000 elements.'
'Select 1,000 random elements (1%) for validation.'
'Shuffle the array and divide it into groups of 1,000 elements.'
'If the hypothesis holds, each group should contain, on average, 1~ valid element, with minor variations.'
* I'd like to attach more details to My hypothesis but it won't be very relevant here. Since this is a whole separate topic, I will leave the minimum part for understanding the engine.
Practical Application
To apply this hypothesis, I needed a way to generate and thoroughly mix numerous possible combinations. Within Pine, generating over 100,000 combinations presents significant challenges, and storing millions of combinations requires excessive resources.
I developed an efficient mechanism that generates combinations in random order to address these limitations. While conventional methods often produce duplicates or require generating a complete list first, my approach guarantees that the first 10% of possible combinations are both unique and well-distributed. Based on my hypothesis, this sampling is sufficient to determine optimal testing parameters.
Most generators and randomizers fail to accommodate both my hypothesis and Pine's constraints. My solution utilizes a simple Linear Congruential Generator (LCG) for pseudo-randomization, enhanced with prime numbers to increase entropy during generation. I pre-generate the entire parameter range and then apply systematic mixing. This approach, combined with a hybrid combinatorial array-filling technique with linear distribution, delivers excellent generation quality.
My engine can efficiently generate and verify 300 unique combinations per batch. Based on the above, to determine optimal values, only 10-20 Parts need to be manually scrolled through to find the appropriate value or range, eliminating the need for exhaustive testing of millions of parameter combinations.
For the Score statistic I applied all the same, generated a range of Weights, distributed them randomly for each type of statistic to avoid manual distribution.
Score ━ based on Trade, Profit, WinRate, Profit Factor, Drawdown, Sharpe & Sortino & Omega & Calmar Ratio.
⭕️ Notes
For attentive users, a little tricks :)
To save time, switch parts every 3 seconds without waiting for it to load. After 10-20 parts, stop and wait for loading. If the pause is correct, you can switch between the rest of the parts without loading, as they will be cached. This used to work without having to wait for a pause, but now it does slower. This will save a lot of time if you are going to do a deeper backtest.
Sometimes you'll get the error “The scripts take too long to execute.”
For a quick fix you just need to switch the TF or Ticker back and forth and most likely everything will load.
The error appears because of problems on the side of the site because the engine is very heavy. It can also appear if you set too long a period for testing in BackWin or use a heavy indicator for testing.
Manual Start - Allow you to Start you Result from any point. Which in turn can help you choose a good stop-stick for your real position.
* It took me half a year from idea to current realization. This seems to be one of the few ways to build something automatic in backtest format and in this particular Pine environment. There are already better projects in other languages, and they are created much easier and faster because there are no limitations except for personal PC. If you see solutions to improve this system I would be glad if you share the code. At the moment I am tired and will continue him not soon.
Also You can use my previosly big Backtest project with more manual settings(updated soon)

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The first setting you will want to set it the pyramiding setting. This setting controls the number of simultaneous trades in the same direction allowed in the strategy. For example, if you set it to 1, only one trade can be active in any time, and the second trade will not be entered unless the first one is exited. If it is set to 2, the script will handle both of them at the same time. Note that you should enter the same value to this pyramiding setting, and the pyramiding setting in the "Properties" tab of the script for this to work.
You can enable and set a backtesting window that will limit the entries to between the start date & end date.
Then, you can enter your desired settings for Supply & Demand Zones. You can also enable and set up to 3 timeframes, which you can use later on when customizing your strategies enter / exit conditions.
Entry Conditions
From the "Long Conditions" or the "Short Conditions" groups, you can set your position entry conditions. For settings like "initial capital" or "order size", you can open the "Properties" tab, where these are handled.
The S&D Automation can use the following conditions for entry conditions :
1. Demand Zone
Detection: Triggered when a Demand Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches a Demand Zone
Break: Triggered when a Demand Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
2. Supply Zone
Detection: Triggered when a Supply Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches a Supply Zone
Break: Triggered when a Supply Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
3. Any Zone
Detection: Triggered when any Supply or Demand Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches any Supply or Demand Zone
Break: Triggered when any Supply or Demand Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
🕒 TIMEFRAME CONDITIONS
The S&D Automation supports Multi-Timeframe (MTF) features, just like the Supply & Demand indicator. When setting an entry condition, you can also choose the timeframe.
To set up MTF conditions, navigate to the 'Timeframes' section in the settings, select your desired timeframes, and enable them. You can choose up to three timeframes.
Once you've selected your timeframes, you can use them in your strategy. When setting long and short entry/exit conditions, you can choose from Timeframe 1, Timeframe 2, or Timeframe 3.
External Conditions
Users can use external indicators on the chart to set entry conditions.
The second dropdown in the external condition settings allows you to choose a conditional operator to compare external outputs. Available options include:
Less Than or Equal To: <=
Less Than: <
Equal To: =
Greater Than: >
Greater Than or Equal To: >=
The position entry conditions work like this ;
Each side has 5 S&D Zone conditions and 1 Source condition. Each condition can be enabled or disabled using the checkbox on the left side of them.
The next selection is the alert type, which you can select between "Detection", "Retest", "Retracement" or "Break".
You can select which timeframe this condition should work on from Timeframe 1, 2, or 3. If you select "Any Timeframe", the condition will work for all timeframes.
Lastly select the step of this condition from 1 to 6.
The Source Condition
The last condition on each side is a source condition that is different from the others. Using this condition, you can create your own logic using other indicators' outputs on your chart. For example, suppose that you have an EMA indicator in your chart. You can have the source condition to something like "EMA > high".
The Step System
Each condition has a step number, and conditions are in topological order based on them.
The conditions are executed step by step. This means the condition with step 2 cannot be executed before the condition with step 1 is executed.
Conditions with the same step numbers have "OR" logic. This means that if you have 2 conditions with step 3, the condition with step 4 can trigger after only one of the step 3 conditions is executed.
➕ OTHER ENTRY FEATURES
The S&D Automation allows traders to choose when to execute trades and when not to execute trades.
1. Only Take Trades
This setting lets users specify the time period when their strategy can open or execute trades.
2. Don't Take Trades
This setting lets users specify time periods when their strategy can't open or execute trades.
↩️ EXIT CONDITIONS
1. Exit on Opposite Signal
When enabled, a long position will close when short entry conditions are met, and a short position will close when long entry conditions are met.
2. Exit on Session End
When enabled, positions will be closed at the end of the trading session.
📈 TAKE PROFIT CONDITIONS
There are several methods available for setting take profit exits and conditions.
1. Entry Condition TP
Users can use entry conditions as triggers for take-profit exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions.
2. Fixed TP
Users can set a fixed TP for exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method triggers a TP exit when price reaches a specified level. For example, if you set the Price TP to 10 and buy NASDAQ:TSLA at $190, the trade will automatically exit when the price reaches $200 ($190 + $10).
Ticks: This method triggers a TP exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a TP exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a TP exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
📉 STOP LOSS CONDITIONS
There are several methods available for setting stop-loss exits and conditions.
1. Entry Condition SL
Users can use entry conditions as triggers for stop-loss exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions.
2. Fixed SL
Users can set a fixed SL for exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method triggers a SL exit when price reaches a specified level. For example, if you set the Price SL to 10 and buy NASDAQ:TSLA at $200, the trade will automatically exit when the price reaches $190 ($200 - $10).
Ticks: This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a SL exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
3. Trailing Stop
An explanation & example for the trailing stop feature is present on the write-up within the next section.
Exit conditions have the same logic of constructing conditions like the entry ones. You can construct a Take-Profit Condition & a Stop-Loss Condition. Note that the Take-Profit condition will only work if the position is in profit, regardless of if it's triggered or not. The same applies for the Stop-Loss condition, meaning that it will only work if the position is in loss.
You can also set a Fixed TP & Fixed SL based on the price movement after the position is entered. You have options like "Price", "Ticks", "%", or "Average True Range". For example, you can set a Fixed TP like "5%", and the position will be entered once it moves 5% up in a long position.
Trailing Stop
For the Fixed SL, you also have a "Trailing" stop option, for which you can set its activation level as well. The Trailing stop activation level and its value are expressed in ticks. Check this scenario for an example :
We have a ticker with a tick value of $1. Our Trailing Stop is set to 10 ticks, and the activation level is set to 30 ticks.
We buy 1 contract when the price is $100.
When the price becomes $110, we are in $10 (10 ticks) profit and the trailing stop is now activated.
The current price our stop's on is $110 - $30 (30 ticks), which is the level of $80.
The trailing stop will only move if the price moves up the highest high the price has been after we entered the position.
Let's suppose that price moves up $40 right after our trailing stop is activated. The price will now be $150, and our trailing stop will sit on $150 - $30 (30 ticks) = $120.
If the price is down the $120 level, our stop loss will be triggered.
There is also a "Hard SL" option designed for a backup stop-loss when trailing stops are enabled. You can enable & set this option and if the price goes down before our trailing stop even activates, the position will be exited.
You can also move stop-loss to the break-even (entry price of the position) after a certain profit is achieved using the last setting of the exit conditions. Note that for this to work, you must have a Fixed SL set-up.
➕ OTHER EXIT FEATURES
1. Move Stop Loss to Breakeven
This setting allows the strategy to automatically move the SL to Breakeven (BE) when the position is in profit by a certain amount. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method moves the SL to BE when price reaches a specified level.
Ticks: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
Example Entry Scenario
To give an example , check this scenario; out conditions are :
LONG CONDITIONS
Demand Zone Detection, Step 1
Supply Zone Retest, Step 2
Demand Zone Break, Step 2
open > close, Step 3
First, the strategy needs to detect a Demand Zone Detection in order to start working.
After it's detected, now it's looking for either a Supply Zone Retest, or a Demand Zone Break to proceed to the next step, the reason for this is that they both have the same step number.
After one of them is detected, the strategy will consistently check candlesticks for the condition open > close. If a bullish candlestick occurs, a long position will be entered.
⏰ ALERTS
This indicator uses TradingView's strategy alert system. All entries and exits will be sent as an alert if configured. It's possible to further customize these alerts to your liking. For more information check TradingView's strategy alert customization page : www.tradingview.com
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. Backtesting Settings

Enable Custom Backtesting Period: Restricts backtesting to a specific date range.
Start & End Time Configuration: Define precise start and end dates for historical analysis.
2. General Configuration
Detection Method: There are two detection methods you can choose from for identifying Supply & Demand Zones. Both methods aim to identify key areas where price is likely to react, but they do so using different approaches. Traders can choose the method that aligns with their trading style and time horizon.
Sensitivity: The Sensitivity setting allows traders to adjust how aggressively the script identifies supply and demand zones when using the Momentum Detection Method. This setting directly impacts the threshold for detecting zones when using the momentum detection method.
Zone Invalidation: The Zone Invalidation setting determines how supply and demand zones are invalidated.
Wick -> A zone is invalidated if a candle’s wick goes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Close -> A zone is invalidated if a candle closes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Zone Visibility Range: The Zone Visibility Range setting controls how far from the current price supply and demand zones are displayed on the chart. It helps traders focus on relevant zones while avoiding clutter from distant or less impactful areas.
Minimum Zone Width: The Minimum Zone Width setting defines the smallest size a supply or demand zone must have to be displayed on the chart. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) as a reference to ensure zones are proportionate to current market volatility.
Minimum Zone Length: The Minimum Zone Length setting determines the minimum number of bars a supply or demand zone must span to be displayed on the chart. This setting helps filter out short-lived or insignificant zones, ensuring only meaningful areas of supply or demand are highlighted.

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK?
The first setting you will want to set it the pyramiding setting. This setting controls the number of simultaneous trades in the same direction allowed in the strategy. For example, if you set it to 1, only one trade can be active in any time, and the second trade will not be entered unless the first one is exited. If it is set to 2, the script will handle both of them at the same time. Note that you should enter the same value to this pyramiding setting, and the pyramiding setting in the "Properties" tab of the script for this to work.
For deep backtesting, you can set "Max Distance To Last Bar" to "Unlimited". If you encounter any memory issues, try decreasing this setting to a lower value.
You can enable and set a backtesting window that will limit the entries to between the start date & end date.
Then, you can enter your desired settings to Price Action features like FVGs, IFVGs, Order Blocks, Breaker Blocks, Liquidity Grabs, Market Structures, EQH & EQL and Volume Imbalances. You can also enable and set up to 3 timeframes, which you can use later on when customizing your strategies enter / exit conditions.

Ticks: This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a SL exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
3. Trailing Stop
An explanation & example for the trailing stop feature is present on the write-up within the next section.
Exit conditions have the same logic of constructing conditions like the entry ones. You can construct a Take-Profit Condition & a Stop-Loss Condition. Note that the Take-Profit condition will only work if the position is in profit, regardless of if it's triggered or not. The same applies for the Stop-Loss condition, meaning that it will only work if the position is in loss.
You can also set a Fixed TP & Fixed SL based on the price movement after the position is entered. You have options like "Price", "Ticks", "%", or "Average True Range". For example, you can set a Fixed TP like "5%", and the position will be entered once it moves 5% up in a long position.
Trailing Stop
For the Fixed SL, you also have a "Trailing" stop option, which you can set it's activation level as well. The Trailing stop activation level and it's value are expressed in ticks. Check this scenerio for an example :
We have a ticker with a tick value of $1. Our Trailing Stop is set to 10 ticks and activation level is set to 30 ticks.
We buy 1 contract when the price is $100.
When the price becomes $110, we are in $10 (10 ticks) profit and the trailing stop is now activated.
The current price our stop's on is $110 - $30 (30 ticks), which is the level of $80.
The trailing stop will only move if the price moves up the highest high the price has been after we entered the position.
Let's suppose that price moves up $40 right after our trailing stop is activated. The price will now be $150, and our trailing stop will sit on $150 - $30 (30 ticks) = $120.
If the price is down the $120 level, our stop loss will be triggered.
There is also a "Hard SL" option designed for a backup stop-loss when trailing stops are enabled. You can enable & set this option and if the price goes down before our trailing stop even activates, the position will be exited.
You can also move stop-loss to the break-even (entry price of the position) after a certain profit is achieved using the last setting of the exit conditions. Note that for this to work, you will need to have a Fixed SL set-up.
➕ OTHER EXIT FEATURES
1. Move Stop Loss to Breakeven
This setting allows the strategy to automatically move the SL to Breakeven (BE) when the position is in profit by a certain amount. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method moves the SL to BE when price reaches a specified level.
Ticks: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
Example Entry Scenario
To give an example , check this scenario; out conditions are :
LONG CONDITIONS
Bullish Order Block Detection, Step 1
Bullish CHoCH Detection, Step 2
Bullish Volume Imbalance Detection, Step 2
Bullish IFVG Retest, Step 3
First, the strategy needs to detect a Bullish Order Block in order to start working.
After it's detected, now it's looking for either a CHoCH, or a Volume Imbalance to proceed to the next step, the reason for this is that they both have the same step number.
After one of them is detected, the strategy will consistently check all IFVGs for a retest. If the retest occurs, a long position will be entered.

Z PLUS table take profit & Stop lose ### General Description:
The **Z PLUS Take Profit & Stop Loss** indicator is designed to provide traders with a structured approach to setting take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) levels. It integrates multiple technical analysis techniques, including moving averages, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to generate signals for potential trade entries and exits.
Key features of this indicator include:
1. **Trend Detection** – Uses a moving average-based strategy combined with RSI confirmation to determine bullish or bearish trends. The system identifies trend reversals and signals potential long (buy) or short (sell) opportunities.
2. **ATR-Based Stop Loss** – Implements an adaptive stop-loss mechanism that adjusts dynamically based on market volatility. This ensures that stop losses are positioned in a way that minimizes premature exits while still protecting against excessive losses.
3. **Swing High & Swing Low Take Profit Levels** – Incorporates a swing high and swing low detection method to identify key levels for taking profits. These levels help traders optimize their risk-reward ratios.
4. **ADX for Trend Strength Confirmation** – Utilizes the Average Directional Index (ADX) to determine the strength of the trend and adjust stop-loss levels accordingly. The indicator differentiates between strong and weak trends to enhance decision-making.
5. **Visual Signals & Color Coding** – Provides visual cues such as colored stop-loss lines and plotted take-profit markers to enhance usability. The indicator dynamically updates these levels based on price movements.
6. **Flexible Configuration** – Allows users to modify key parameters such as ATR length, sensitivity factors, and profit target percentages to tailor the strategy to their specific trading style and market conditions.
This indicator is best suited for traders looking to improve their risk management strategies while maintaining a structured approach to profit-taking and stop-loss placement.
