This is a simple algorithm for a Tradingview strategy tracking a convergence of 2 unrelated indicators.
Convergence is the solution to my trading problems. It's a puzzle with infinite possibilities and only a few working combinations.
Here's one that I like
- Engulfing pattern - Price vs Moving average for detecting a breakout
Definition
Take out the notebooks :) and some coffee (good for focus). I'm bullish in coffee
The engulfing pattern is a two-candle reversal pattern. The second candle completely ‘engulfs’ the real body of the first one, without regard to the length of the tail shadows.
The bullish Engulfing pattern appears in a downtrend and is a combination of one red candle followed by a larger green candle The bearish Engulfing pattern appears in a downtrend and is a combination of one green candle followed by a larger red candle
In summary, an engulfing is a pattern to track reversals. (the whole TradingView audience stands up now giving a standing ovation) Adding the Price vs Moving average filters allows to track reversals with momentums (half of the audience collapsed because this is too awesome)
Ok sir... you picked up my interest
I included some cool backtest filters:
- date range filtering - flexible take profit in USD value (plotted in blue) - flexible stop loss in USD value (plotted in red)
