Best EMA Cross Strategy with TP/SLBest EMA Cross Strategy with TP/SL
🧠 Core Concept:
This strategy combines three exponential moving averages (EMAs) to detect trend shifts and places trades with automatic take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) levels based on percentage risk management.
📊 Indicators Used:
EMA 20 (Green): Short-term trend (for context only)
EMA 50 (Red): Medium-term trend
EMA 200 (Yellow): Long-term trend baseline
✅ Entry Logic:
🔼 Buy Entry (Long Position):
Triggered when:
EMA 50 crosses above EMA 200 (Golden Cross)
EMA 200 is sloping upward (shows long-term trend confirmation)
This suggests a strong bullish reversal or trend continuation.
🔽 Sell Entry (Short Position):
Triggered when:
EMA 50 crosses below EMA 200 (Death Cross)
EMA 200 is sloping downward (confirms long-term bearish trend)
This signals a potential market downturn or continuation of a bearish trend.
📏 Risk Management Logic:
Stop Loss (SL): Set as a fixed % away from entry price (default: 1%)
Take Profit (TP): Set using a Risk-Reward ratio (default: 2:1)
For example:
If SL = 1%, and RR = 2 → TP = 2%
These are set using strategy.exit() for accurate backtesting.
⚙️ Adjustable Parameters in Settings Panel:
Parameter Default Purpose
EMA 20 Length 20 Used for visual trend support
EMA Fast Length 50 Used in crossover (faster-moving average)
EMA Slow Length 200 Used in crossover (slower-moving average)
Stop Loss % 1.0 Distance from entry for SL
Risk-Reward Ratio 2.0 Multiplier for TP target
🔔 Alerts Included:
You’ll be notified when:
Golden Cross (buy opportunity)
Death Cross (sell opportunity)
Set alerts in TradingView from the Alerts panel.
✅ Best Timeframes:
1H, 4H, or Daily
Avoid using on extremely low timeframes (like 1m or 5m) without modification
📈 Strategy Use Tips:
Combine with support/resistance zones for higher probability entries
Use EMA 20 as a trailing dynamic SR level
Backtest on multiple assets and timeframes with adjusted SL/RR
Look for volume confirmation manually if needed
All backtested and very profitable

Intraday Trading Hit and Run# Strategy Overview
This is a short-term trading system designed for quick entries/exits (intraday). It uses multiple technical indicators to identify momentum trades in the direction of the trend, with built-in risk management through trailing stops.
# Main Components
1. Trend Filter
Uses two EMAs (10-period "fast" blue line and 100-period "slow" red line)
Only trades when:
Long: Price AND fast EMA are above slow EMA
Short: Price AND fast EMA are below slow EMA
2. Main Signal
////Stochastic Oscillator (14-period):
Buy when %K line crosses above %D line
Sell when %K crosses below %D
////Trend Strength Check
Smoothed ADX indicator (5-period EMA of ADX):
Requires ADX value ≥ 25 to confirm strong trend
3. Confirmation using Volume Filter (Optional)
Checks if current volume is 1.5× greater than 20-period average volume
# Entry Rules
A trade is only taken when:
All 3 indicators agree (EMA trend, Stochastic momentum, ADX strength)
Volume filter is satisfied (if enabled)
# Exit Rules
1. Emergency Exit:
Close long if price drops below fast EMA
Close short if price rises above fast EMA
2. Trailing Stop:
Actively protects profits by moving stop-loss:
Maintains 0.1% distance from highest price (longs) or lowest price (shorts)
# Risk Management
Only use 10% of account per trade
Includes 0.04% commission cost in calculations
All trades monitored with trailing stops
# How It Operates
The strategy looks for strong, high-volume momentum moves in the direction of the established trend (as determined by EMAs). It jumps in quickly ("hit") when conditions align, then protects gains with an automatic trailing stop ("run"). Designed for fast markets where trends develop rapidly.
You can use it on 15m, 1h or 4h

CANX MA Crossover© CanxStixTrader
Moving average crossover systems measure drift in the market. They are great strategies for time-limited traders. KEEP IT SIMPLE
This strategy works both for buys and sells using the reaction line to guide your position against the reactions.
HOW TO USE THE INDICATOR
1) Choose your market and timeframe.
2) Choose the length.
3) Choose the multiplier.
4) Choose if the strategy is long-only or bidirectional (longs & shorts).
TIPS
The strategy works best in bullish markets as that is the primary direction that market such as stocks, indexes and metals like to move.
- Increase the multiplier to reduce whipsaws
- Increase the length to take fewer trades
- Decrease the length to take more trades
- Try a Long-Only strategy to see if that performs better.
The base set up when you load the indicator is for the 1 minute chart on gold. We found that it also works well on the US Indexes. For other markets you may need to change the length and multiplier to suit the market and back test its results.
50-Week High Entry / 40-Week Low Exit StrategyThis is a simple long term strategy
Entry condition : You will enter the market when the stock’s current high exceeds its 50-week high. This condition enables you to identify upward momentum and capitalize on potential price surges.
Exit condition
Conversely, you will exit the market when the stock’s current low drops below its 40-week low. This exit strategy helps protect your capital by ensuring you withdraw from losing positions before further declines in price occur.
This trading strategy relies on the Donchian Channel indicator to monitor the relevant 50-week high and 40-week low levels. Given that this is a weekly trading strategy, all backtesting will be conducted using weekly timeframes.

⸻
1. Installing the Script
1. Open TradingView, go to Pine Editor (bottom panel).
2. Paste in your full Pine-v6 code and hit Add to chart.
3. Save it (“Save as…”): give it a memorable name (e.g. “VWAP Breakout+EMAs”).
⸻
2. Configuring Your Inputs
Once it’s on the chart, click the ⚙️ Settings icon to tune:
Setting Default What it does
ATR Length 14 Period for average true range (volatility measure)
ATR Multiplier for Stop 1.5 How many ATRs away your stop-loss sits
TP1 / TP2 Multipliers (ATR) 1.0 / 2.0 Distance of TP1 and TP2 in ATR multiples
Show VWAP / EMAs On Toggles the blue VWAP line & EMAs (100/34/5)
Full Cycle Range Points 200 Height of the shaded “cycle zone”
Pivot Lookback 5 How many bars back to detect a pivot low
Round Number Step 500 Spacing of your dotted horizontal lines
Show TP/SL Labels On Toggles all the “ENTRY”, “TP1”, “TP2”, “STOP” tags
Feel free to adjust ATR multipliers and cycle-zone size based on the instrument’s typical range.
⸻
3. Reading the Signals
• Long Entry:
• Trigger: price crosses above VWAP
• You’ll see a green “Buy” tag at the low of the signal bar, plus an “ENTRY (Long)” label at the close.
• Stop is plotted as a red dashed line below (ATR × 1.5), and TP1/TP2 as teal and purple lines above.
• Short Entry:
• Trigger: price crosses below VWAP
• A red “Sell” tag appears at the high, with “ENTRY (Short)” at the close.
• Stop is the green line above; TP1/TP2 are dashed teal/purple lines below.
⸻
4. Full Cycle Zone
Whenever a new pivot low is detected (using your Pivot Lookback), the script deletes the old box and draws a shaded yellow rectangle from that low up by “Full Cycle Range Points.”
• Use this to visualize the “maximum expected swing” from your pivot.
• You can quickly see whether price is still traveling within a normal cycle or has overstretched.
⸻
5. Round-Number Levels
With Show Round Number Levels enabled, you’ll always get horizontal dotted lines at the nearest multiples of your “Round Number Step” (e.g. every 500 points).
• These often act as psychological support/resistance.
• Handy to see confluence with VWAP or cycle-zone edges.
⸻
6. Tips & Best-Practices
• Timeframes: Apply on any intraday chart (5 min, 15 min, H1…), but match your ATR length & cycle-points to the timeframe’s typical range.
• Backtest first: Use the Strategy Tester tab to review performance, tweak ATR multipliers or cycle size, then optimize.
• Combine with context: Don’t trade VWAP breakouts blindly—look for confluence (e.g. support/resistance zones, higher-timeframe trend).
• Label clutter: If too many labels build up, you can toggle Show TP/SL Labels off and rely just on the lines.
⸻
That’s it! Once you’ve added it to your chart and dialed in the inputs, your entries, exits, cycle ranges, and key levels will all be plotted automatically. Feel free to experiment with the ATR multipliers and cycle-zone size until it fits your instrument’s personality. Happy trading!
EMA 10/20/50 Alignment Strategy### 📘 **Strategy Name**
**EMA 10/20/50 Trend Alignment Strategy**

Smart Fib StrategySmart Fibonacci Strategy
This advanced trading strategy combines the power of adaptive SMA entries with Fibonacci-based exit levels to create a comprehensive trend-following system that self-optimizes based on historical market conditions. Credit goes to Julien_Eche who created the "Best SMA Finder" which received an Editors Pick award.
Strategy Overview
The Smart Fibonacci Strategy employs a two-pronged approach to trading:
1. Intelligent Entries: Uses a self-optimizing SMA (Simple Moving Average) to identify optimal entry points. The system automatically tests multiple SMA lengths against historical data to determine which period provides the most robust trading signals.
2. Fibonacci-Based Exits: Implements ATR-adjusted Fibonacci bands to establish precise exit targets, with risk-management options ranging from conservative to aggressive.
This dual methodology creates a balanced system that adapts to changing market conditions while providing clear visual reference points for trade management.
Key Features
- **Self-Optimizing Entries**: Automatically calculates the most profitable SMA length based on historical performance
- **Adjustable Risk Parameters**: Choose between low-risk and high-risk exit targets
- **Directional Flexibility**: Trade long-only, short-only, or both directions
- **Visualization Tools**: Customizable display of entry lines and exit bands
- **Performance Statistics**: Comprehensive stats table showing key metrics
- **Smoothing Option**: Reduces noise in the Fibonacci bands for cleaner signals
Trading Rules
Entry Signals
- **Long Entry**: When price crosses above the blue center line (optimal SMA)
- **Short Entry**: When price crosses below the blue center line (optimal SMA)
### Exit Levels
- **Low Risk Option**: Exit at the first Fibonacci band (1.618 * ATR)
- **High Risk Option**: Exit at the second Fibonacci band (2.618 * ATR)
Strategy Parameters
Display Settings
- Toggle visibility of the stats table and indicator components
Strategy Settings
- Select trading direction (long, short, or both)
- Choose exit method (low risk or high risk)
- Set minimum trades threshold for SMA optimization
SMA Settings
- Option to use auto-optimized or fixed-length SMA
- Customize SMA length when using fixed option
Fibonacci Settings
- Adjust ATR period and SMA basis for Fibonacci bands
- Enable/disable smoothing function
- Customize Fibonacci ratio multipliers
Appearance Settings
- Modify colors, line widths, and transparency
Optimization Methodology
The strategy employs a sophisticated optimization algorithm that:
1. Tests multiple SMA lengths against historical data
2. Evaluates performance based on trade count, profit factor, and win rate
3. Calculates a "robustness score" that balances profitability with statistical significance
4. Selects the SMA length with the highest robustness score
This ensures that the strategy's entry signals are continuously adapting to the most effective parameters for current market conditions.
Risk Management
Position sizing is fixed at $2,000 per trade, allowing for consistent exposure across all trading setups. The Fibonacci-based exit system provides two distinct risk management approaches:
- **Conservative Approach**: Using the first Fibonacci band for exits produces more frequent but smaller wins
- **Aggressive Approach**: Using the second Fibonacci band allows for larger potential gains at the cost of increased volatility
Ideal Usage
This strategy is best suited for:
- Trending markets with clear directional moves
- Timeframes from 4H to Daily for most balanced results
- Instruments with moderate volatility (stocks, forex, commodities)
Traders can further enhance performance by combining this strategy with broader market analysis to confirm the prevailing trend direction.

EMA 12/26 With ATR Volatility StoplossThe EMA 12/26 With ATR Volatility Stoploss
The EMA 12/26 With ATR Volatility Stoploss strategy is a meticulously designed systematic trading approach tailored for navigating financial markets through technical analysis. By integrating the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Average True Range (ATR) indicators, the strategy aims to identify optimal entry and exit points for trades while prioritizing disciplined risk management. At its core, it is a trend-following system that seeks to capitalize on price momentum, employing volatility-adjusted stop-loss mechanisms and dynamic position sizing to align with predefined risk parameters. Additionally, it offers traders the flexibility to manage profits either by compounding returns or preserving initial capital, making it adaptable to diverse trading philosophies. This essay provides a comprehensive exploration of the strategy’s underlying concepts, key components, strengths, limitations, and practical applications, without delving into its technical code.
=====
Core Philosophy and Objectives
The EMA 12/26 With ATR Volatility Stoploss strategy is built on the premise of capturing short- to medium-term price trends with a high degree of automation and consistency. It leverages the crossover of two EMAs—a fast EMA (12-period) and a slow EMA (26-period)—to generate buy and sell signals, which indicate potential trend reversals or continuations. To mitigate the inherent risks of trading, the strategy incorporates the ATR indicator to set stop-loss levels that adapt to market volatility, ensuring that losses remain within acceptable bounds. Furthermore, it calculates position sizes based on a user-defined risk percentage, safeguarding capital while optimizing trade exposure.
A distinctive feature of the strategy is its dual profit management modes:
SnowBall (Compound Profit): Profits from successful trades are reinvested into the capital base, allowing for progressively larger position sizes and potential exponential portfolio growth.
ZeroRisk (Fixed Equity): Profits are withdrawn, and trades are executed using only the initial capital, prioritizing capital preservation and minimizing exposure to market downturns.
This duality caters to both aggressive traders seeking growth and conservative traders focused on stability, positioning the strategy as a versatile tool for various market environments.
=====
Key Components of the Strategy
1. EMA-Based Signal Generation
The strategy’s trend-following mechanism hinges on the interaction between the Fast EMA (12-period) and Slow EMA (26-period). EMAs are preferred over simple moving averages because they assign greater weight to recent price data, enabling quicker responses to market shifts. The key signals are:
Buy Signal: Triggered when the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, suggesting the onset of an uptrend or bullish momentum.
Sell Signal: Occurs when the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA, indicating a potential downtrend or the end of a bullish phase.
To enhance signal reliability, the strategy employs an Anchor Point EMA (AP EMA), a short-period EMA (e.g., 2 days) that smooths the input price data before calculating the primary EMAs. This preprocessing reduces noise from short-term price fluctuations, improving the accuracy of trend detection. Additionally, users can opt for a Consolidated EMA (e.g., 18-period) to display a single trend line instead of both EMAs, simplifying chart analysis while retaining trend insights.

2. Volatility-Adjusted Risk Management with ATR
Risk management is a cornerstone of the strategy, achieved through the use of the Average True Range (ATR), which quantifies market volatility by measuring the average price range over a specified period (e.g., 10 days). The ATR informs the placement of stop-loss levels, which are set at a multiple of the ATR (e.g., 2x ATR) below the entry price for long positions. This approach ensures that stop losses are proportionate to current market conditions—wider during high volatility to avoid premature exits, and narrower during low volatility to protect profits.
For example, if a stock’s ATR is $1 and the multiplier is 2, the stop loss for a buy at $100 would be set at $98. This dynamic adjustment enhances the strategy’s adaptability, preventing stop-outs from normal market noise while capping potential losses.

3. Dynamic Position Sizing
The strategy calculates position sizes to align with a user-defined Risk Per Trade, typically expressed as a percentage of capital (e.g., 2%). The position size is determined by:
The available capital, which varies depending on whether SnowBall or ZeroRisk mode is selected.
The distance between the entry price and the ATR-based stop-loss level, which represents the per-unit risk.
The desired risk percentage, ensuring that the maximum loss per trade does not exceed the specified threshold.
For instance, with a $1,000 capital, a 2% risk per trade ($20), and a stop-loss distance equivalent to 5% of the entry price, the strategy computes the number of units (shares or contracts) to ensure the total loss, if the stop loss is hit, equals $20. To prevent over-leveraging, the strategy includes checks to ensure that the position’s dollar value does not exceed available capital. If it does, the position size is scaled down to fit within the capital constraints, maintaining financial discipline.

4. Flexible Capital Management
The strategy’s dual profit management modes—SnowBall and ZeroRisk—offer traders strategic flexibility:
SnowBall Mode: By compounding profits, traders can increase their capital base, leading to larger position sizes over time. This is ideal for those with a long-term growth mindset, as it harnesses the power of exponential returns.
ZeroRisk Mode: By withdrawing profits and trading solely with the initial capital, traders protect their gains and limit exposure to market volatility. This conservative approach suits those prioritizing stability over aggressive growth.
These options allow traders to tailor the strategy to their risk tolerance, financial goals, and market outlook, enhancing its applicability across different trading styles.
=====
5. Time-Based Trade Filtering
To optimize performance and relevance, the strategy includes an option to restrict trading to a specific time range (e.g., from 2018 onward). This feature enables traders to focus on periods with favorable market conditions, avoid historically volatile or unreliable data, or align the strategy with their backtesting objectives. By confining trades to a defined timeframe, the strategy ensures that performance metrics reflect the intended market context.

=====
Limitations and Considerations
Despite its strengths, the strategy has inherent limitations that traders must address:
False Signals in Range-Bound Markets: EMA crossovers may generate misleading signals in sideways or choppy markets, leading to whipsaws and unprofitable trades.
Signal Lag: As lagging indicators, EMAs may delay entry or exit signals, causing traders to miss rapid trend shifts or enter trades late.
Overfitting Risk: Excessive optimization of parameters to fit historical data can impair the strategy’s performance in live markets, as past patterns may not persist.
Impact of High Volatility: In extremely volatile markets, wider stop losses may result in larger losses than anticipated, challenging risk management assumptions.
Data Reliability: The strategy’s effectiveness depends on accurate, continuous price data, and discrepancies or gaps can undermine signal accuracy.
=====
Practical Applications
The EMA 12/26 With ATR Volatility Stoploss strategy is versatile, applicable to diverse markets such as stocks, forex, commodities, and cryptocurrencies, particularly in trending environments. To maximize its potential, traders should adopt a rigorous implementation process:
Backtesting: Evaluate the strategy’s historical performance across various market conditions to assess its robustness and identify optimal parameter settings.
Forward Testing: Deploy the strategy in a demo account to validate its real-time performance, ensuring it aligns with live market dynamics before risking capital.
Ongoing Monitoring: Continuously track trade outcomes, analyze performance metrics, and refine parameters to adapt to evolving market conditions.
Additionally, traders should consider market-specific factors, such as liquidity and volatility, when applying the strategy. For instance, highly liquid markets like forex may require tighter ATR multipliers, while less liquid markets like small-cap stocks may benefit from wider stop losses.
