Volatility and Tick Size DataThis indicator, titled "Tick Information & Standard Deviation Table," provides detailed insights into market microstructure, including tick size, point value, and standard deviation values calculated based on the True Range. It helps visualize essential trading parameters that influence transaction costs, risk management, and portfolio performance, including volatility measures that can guide investment strategies.
Why These Data Points Are Important for Portfolio Management
Tick Size and Point Value:
Tick size refers to the smallest possible price movement in a given asset. It defines the granularity of the price changes, affecting how precise the market price can be at any moment. Point value reflects the monetary value of a single price movement (one tick). These two data points are essential for understanding transaction costs and for evaluating how much capital is at risk per price movement. Smaller tick sizes may lead to more efficient pricing in high-frequency trading strategies (Hasbrouck, 2009).

Standard Deviations and Volatility:
Standard deviation measures the variability or volatility of an asset's price over a set period. This data point is critical for portfolio management, as it helps to quantify risk and predict potential price movements. True Range and its standard deviations provide a more comprehensive measure of market volatility than just price fluctuations, as they include gaps and extreme price changes. Investors use volatility data to assess the potential risk and adjust portfolio allocations accordingly (Ang, 2006).
Reference: Ang, A. (2006). Asset Management: A Systematic Approach to Factor Investing. Oxford University Press.
Risk Management:
The ability to quantify risk through metrics like the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd standard deviations of the true range is essential for implementing risk controls within a portfolio. By incorporating volatility data, portfolio managers can adjust their strategies for different market conditions, potentially reducing exposure to high-risk environments. These volatility measures help in setting stop-loss levels, optimizing position sizes, and managing the portfolio’s overall risk-return profile (Black & Scholes, 1973).
Reference: Black, F., & Scholes, M. (1973). The Pricing of Options and Corporate Liabilities. Journal of Political Economy, 81(3), 637-654.
Portfolio Diversification and Hedging:
Understanding asset volatility and transaction costs is critical when constructing a diversified portfolio. By using the standard deviations from this indicator, investors can better identify assets that may provide diversification benefits, potentially reducing the overall portfolio risk. Moreover, the point values and tick sizes help assess the cost-effectiveness of various assets, enabling portfolio managers to implement more efficient hedging strategies (Markowitz, 1952).
Reference: Markowitz, H. (1952). Portfolio Selection. The Journal of Finance, 7(1), 77-91.
Conclusion
The Tick Information & Standard Deviation Table provides critical market data that informs the risk management, diversification, and pricing strategies used in portfolio management. By incorporating tick size, point value, and volatility metrics, investors can make more informed decisions, better manage risk, and optimize the returns on their portfolios. The data serves as an essential tool for aligning asset selection and portfolio allocations with the investor's risk tolerance and market conditions.

TOP 20 ALTCOIN INDEXIndicator Description
The "ALT20 INDEX" is a financial analysis tool designed to track the aggregate value of the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization and closing prices over specific periods. This indicator reflects changes in the combined value of these 20 ALTCOINs, providing an overview of trends in the cryptocurrency market.
=================================
Purpose and Practical Applications
1. Tracking Top Cryptocurrencies:
- The indicator allows monitoring the value of the top 20 ALTCOINs, reflecting the general volatility of the cryptocurrency market.
- Helps investors focus on high-capitalization assets.
2. Performance Comparison:
- Serves as a tool to compare the performance of the ALT20 group against other assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, or traditional financial indices.
3. Assessing Market Health:
- Enables evaluation of market trends, identifying growth or decline periods.
4. Practical Applications:

Confluence ChecklistHOW DOES IT WORK?
The "Confluence Checklist" indicator helps you to stick to your trading plan with your set rules. You have a total of 8 rules that can be set up manually. Using the checkbox, you can check during trading whether your rules are followed or not. You can change the colors of the table on the one hand, and the size and width of the table columns on the other.
█ WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE?
It is the only checklist indicator on Tradingview that has an integrated checkbox. Thus, you can always check your trading plan.
█ HOW TO USE IT?
The best way to start is to create your personal trading plan based on your trading strategy. Then you can display the trading plan digitally in Tradingview. This way you don't have to write and check your rules on paper anymore. This is very important for scalping, because sometimes you only have a few seconds left for the execution. After creating the trading plan, you can integrate it into the checklist. Before placing an order, you can check the checklist to see if the trade is really valid.
Z The Good Stuff +I created this script to have a couple datapoints that I want to look at when going through charts to find trade ideas. Qullamaggie is one of my biggest inspirations and I built in a couple of his concepts with a touch to help me with sizing properly, all explained below:
Box 1: ADR %, Average Daily Range, gives and indication of how volatile the stock is. It uses the 20 day average % move of the current stock on the chart.
Box 2: LOD Distance, low of day distance is a quality of life element I created. It calculates the low for the current candle and color codes it red or green depending on if it's higher or lower than the daily ADR. The logic is that if a stock has an average speed, buying on a setup it is preferred if the stop distance (assuming a low of day stop) should be less than the ADR to improve the odds of more upside.
Box 3: Todays DV, this shows a rough estimate of how much money was traded on the particular day.
Box 4: ADV 20 days, similar to above this shows the 20 day $ traded average. The point to look at it is to have a better idea what position size is possible to not get stuck in something too illiquid.
Box 5: Market cap, just shows the market cap of the stock to know what size the company is.
Box 6: Number of shares, this is an additional quality of life aspect. If using low of day stops, this part calculates based on the users' inputted portfolio size and portfolio risk preference and then calculates how many stocks to buy to stay within the risk parameters. It is obviously not a sole decision making parameter nor does it guarantee any execution, but if a stock is showing an entry you want to take you can use the number of shares to help you know how many to buy. The preset is a portfolio of 10000 and a risk of 0.25%. This means that the number of shares to buy will be at the current price with lod stop that would result in a 0.25% portfolio loss. OF COURSE the actual loss depends on the execution and if the user places a stop loss order.
Hope you find it useful and feel free to give feedback! Cheers!

Linear Regression Channel Screener [Daveatt]Hello traders
First and foremost, I want to extend a huge thank you to @LonesomeTheBlue for his exceptional Linear Regression Channel indicator that served as the foundation for this screener.
Original work can be found here:
Overview
This project demonstrates how to transform any open-source indicator into a powerful multi-asset screener.
The principles shown here can be applied to virtually any indicator you find interesting.
How to Transform an Indicator into a Screener
Step 1: Identify the Core Logic
First, identify the main calculations of the indicator.
In our case, it's the Linear Regression
Channel calculation:
get_channel(src, len) =>
mid = math.sum(src, len) / len
slope = ta.linreg(src, len, 0) - ta.linreg(src, len, 1)
intercept = mid - slope * math.floor(len / 2) + (1 - len % 2) / 2 * slope
endy = intercept + slope * (len - 1)
dev = 0.0
for x = 0 to len - 1 by 1
dev := dev + math.pow(src - (slope * (len - x) + intercept), 2)
dev
dev := math.sqrt(dev / len)
Step 2: Use request.security()
Pass the function to request.security() to analyze multiple assets:
= request.security(sym, timeframe.period, get_channel(src, len))
Step 3: Scale to Multiple Assets
PineScript allows up to 40 request.security() calls, letting you monitor up to 40 assets simultaneously.
Features of This Screener
The screener provides real-time trend detection for each monitored asset, giving you instant insights into market movements.
It displays each asset's position relative to its middle regression line, helping you understand price momentum.
The data is presented in a clean, organized table with color-coded trends for easy interpretation.
At its core, the screener performs trend detection based on regression slope calculations, clearly indicating whether an asset is in a bullish or bearish trend.
Each asset's price is tracked relative to its middle regression line, providing additional context about trend strength.
The color-coded visual feedback makes it easy to spot changes at a glance.
Built-in alerts notify you instantly when any asset experiences a trend change, ensuring you never miss important market moves.
Customization Tips
You can easily expand the screener by adding more symbols to the symbols array, adapting it to your watchlist.
The regression parameters can be adjusted to match your preferred trading timeframes and sensitivity.
The alert system is already configured to notify you of trend changes, but you can customize the alert messages and conditions to your needs.
Limitations
While powerful, the screener is bound by PineScript's limitation of 40 security calls, capping the maximum number of monitored assets.
Using AI to Help With Conversion
An interesting tip:
You can use AI tools to help convert single-asset indicators to screeners.
Simply provide the original code and ask for assistance in transforming it into a screener format. While the AI output might need some syntax adjustments, it can handle much of the heavy lifting in the conversion process.
Prompt (example) : " Please make a pinescript version 5 screener out of this indicator below or in attachment to scan 20 instruments "
I prefer Claude AI (Opus model) over ChatGPT for pinescript.
Conclusion
This screener transformation technique opens up endless possibilities for market analysis.
By following these steps, you can convert any indicator into a powerful multi-asset scanner, enhancing your trading toolkit significantly.
Remember: The power of a screener lies not just in monitoring multiple assets, but in applying consistent analysis across your entire watchlist in real-time.
Feel free to fork and modify this screener for your own needs.
Happy trading! 🚀📈

Crypto Index Creator (MEMES & AI Supercycle Dominance, etc)This indicator aims to help to create any INDEX desired including but not limited to its Market Cap and Dominance on the crypto market.
This script was inspired originally by Murad's "Memecoins Dominance" but then I extended it to AI and can be extended to anything in fact, so you can create any index!
I made each token entry editable so that the script can survive the evolution of time as likely projects and INDEXES are going to change a lot, so that you can add/modify your own indices of preference if not listed by default and in order to make it future proof.
You can play with the settings, can compare to BTC, ETC, SOL, etc. for helping in your studies
You also have the option to check the info of each symbol on a table available on the settings, in order to help you figure out if there are any errors and also help you to easily check how the symbols are performing individually
Notes:
- Many projects are not like MEMECOINS that have fixed supply, normally VC projects have a very variable circulating supply, so you might want to update the info of the circulating supply for your projects to make it more accurate if you desire.
- For this script there is a limit of 32 Symbols, due to tradingview own limits, yet you can always "add" multiple projects per line as long as their circulating supply is the same.
- You might want to edit/sort the tickers of the top3, top5 and top10 if they follow bellow those top ranks, but this is not necessary if you don't care about Top 3-10 specific calculations.
- My default "indices" were made of token selections of mine as of November 2024, those defaults indices/tickers I might or might not update them eventually but you are free to adapt/modify the tickers in the settings as history evolves, and you can leave your own indexes on the comment section of this post for others to use
- As you might not be able to create/store multiple different indexes at the same time, you might want to add this indicator multiple times on your screen and then modify the tickers of each instance of this indicator, by that you can have multiple indexes.

Sharpe Ratio Z-ScoreThe "Sharpe Ratio Z-Score" indicator is a powerful tool designed to measure risk-adjusted returns in financial assets. This script helps investors evaluate the performance of a security relative to its risk, using a Z-score based modification of the Sharpe Ratio. The indicator is suitable for assessing market environments and understanding periods of underperformance or overperformance relative to historical standards.
Features:
Risk Assessment and Scaling: The indicator calculates a modified version of the Sharpe Ratio
over a user-defined period. By using scaling and mean offset adjustments, it allows for better
fitting to different market conditions.
Customizable Settings:
Period Length: The number of bars used to calculate the Sharpe Ratio.
Mean Adjustment: Offset value to adjust the average return of the calculated Sharpe ratio.
Scale Factor: A multiplier for emphasizing or reducing the calculated score's impact.
Line Color: Easily customize the plot's appearance.
Visual Cues:
Plots horizontal lines and fills specific regions to visually represent significant Z-score levels.
Highlighted zones include risk thresholds, such as overbought (positive Z-scores) and oversold
(negative Z-scores) areas, using intuitive color fills:
Green for areas below -0.5 (potential buy opportunities).
Red for areas above 0.5 (potential sell opportunities).
Yellow for neutral zones between -0.5 and 0.5.
Use Cases:
Risk-Adjusted Decision Making: Understand when returns are favorable compared to risk, especially during volatile market conditions.
Timing Reversion to Mean: Use highlighted zones to identify potential reversion-to-mean scenarios.
Trend Analysis: Identify times when an asset's performance is significantly deviating from its
average risk-adjusted return.
How It Works:
The script computes the daily returns over a set period, calculates the standard deviation of
those returns, and then applies a modified Sharpe Ratio approach. The Z-score transformation
helps to visualize how far an asset's risk-adjusted return deviates from its historical average.
This "Sharpe Ratio Z-Score" indicator is well-suited for investors seeking to combine quantitative metrics with visual cues, enhancing decision-making for long and short positions while maintaining a risk-adjusted perspective.
Sharpe Ratio With Upper/Lower BandsSharpe Ratio with Upper/Lower Bands is an advanced indicator designed to measure and visualize risk-adjusted returns. The Sharpe Ratio evaluates the performance of an asset or portfolio relative to its risk, helping traders and investors gauge efficiency.
This indicator enhances the traditional Sharpe Ratio by adding dynamic upper and lower bands based on its historical mean and standard deviation. These bands provide clear visual thresholds for overperformance and underperformance, allowing users to identify when the Sharpe Ratio deviates significantly from its typical range.
It’s a valuable tool for spotting extreme risk-adjusted performance levels, optimizing entry and exit points, and maintaining a balanced risk-reward strategy.
Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR)This Pine Script implements the Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR), a risk metric that evaluates the potential losses in a financial portfolio beyond a certain confidence level, incorporating both the Value at Risk (VaR) and the expected loss given that the VaR threshold has been breached.
Key Features:
Input Parameters:
length: Defines the observation period in days (default is 252, typically used to represent the number of trading days in a year).
confidence: Specifies the confidence interval for calculating VaR and CVaR, with values between 0.5 and 0.99 (default is 0.95, indicating a 95% confidence level).
Logarithmic Returns Calculation: The script computes the logarithmic returns based on the daily closing prices, a common method to measure financial asset returns, given by:
Log Return=ln(PtPt−1)
Log Return=ln(Pt−1Pt)
where PtPt is the price at time tt, and Pt−1Pt−1 is the price at the previous time point.
VaR Calculation: Value at Risk (VaR) is estimated as the percentile of the returns array corresponding to the given confidence interval. This represents the maximum loss expected over a given time horizon under normal market conditions at the specified confidence level.
CVaR Calculation: The Conditional VaR (CVaR) is calculated as the average of the returns that fall below the VaR threshold. This represents the expected loss given that the loss has exceeded the VaR threshold.
Visualization: The script plots two key risk measures:
VaR: The maximum potential loss at the specified confidence level.
CVaR: The average of the losses beyond the VaR threshold.
The script also includes a neutral line at zero to help visualize the losses and their magnitude.
Source and Scientific Background:
The concept of Value at Risk (VaR) was popularized by J.P. Morgan in the 1990s, and it has since become a widely-used tool for risk management (Jorion, 2007). Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR), also known as Expected Shortfall, addresses the limitation of VaR by considering the severity of losses beyond the VaR threshold (Rockafellar & Uryasev, 2002). CVaR provides a more comprehensive risk measure, especially in extreme tail risk scenarios.

Mini PortfolioThis code is a simple portfolio tracker calculates the Net Asset Value (NAV) of a portfolio consisting of up to 6 tickers based on Binance prices. Users can input how much of each cryptocurrency they "own," and the script then fetches the opening price of each coin.
After calculating the values of BTC, ETH, and SOL, the code sums these individual values to determine the portfolio's total value, or NAV. This NAV is then plotted on a graph, allowing users to see the overall value of their selected cryptocurrency portfolio over time.
In essence, this code allows users to track the hypothetical value of a small crypto portfolio and see how price fluctuations affect the total portfolio value. It’s a useful tool for visualizing potential portfolio performance without actual investments.
AI x Meme Impulse Tracker [QuantraSystems]AI x Meme Impulse Tracker
Quantra Systems guarantees that the information created and published within this document and on the Tradingview platform is fully compliant with applicable regulations, does not constitute investment advice, and is not exclusively intended for qualified investors.
Important Note!
The system equity curve presented here has been generated as part of the process of testing and verifying the methodology behind this script.
Crucially, it was developed after the system was conceptualized, designed, and created, which helps to mitigate the risk of overfitting to historical data. In other words, the system was built for robustness, not for simply optimizing past performance.
This ensures that the system is less likely to degrade in performance over time, compared to hyper-optimized systems that are tailored to past data. No tweaks or optimizations were made to this system post-backtest.
Even More Important Note!!
The nature of markets is that they change quickly and unpredictably. Past performance does not guarantee future results - this is a fundamental rule in trading and investing.
While this system is designed with broad, flexible conditions to adapt quickly to a range of market environments, it is essential to understand that no assumptions should be made about future returns based on historical data. Markets are inherently uncertain, and this system - like all trading systems - cannot predict future outcomes.
Introduction
The AI x Meme Impulse Tracker is a cutting-edge, fast-acting rotational algorithm designed to capitalize on the strength of assets within pre-selected categories. Using a custom function built on top of the RSI Pulsar, the system measures momentum through impulses rather than traditional trend following methods. This allows for swifter reallocations based on short bursts of strength.
This system focuses on precision and agility - making it highly adaptable in volatile markets. The strategy is built around three independent asset categories - with allocations only made to the strongest asset in each - ensuring that capital movement (in particular between blockchains) is kept to a minimum for efficiency purposes while maintaining exposure to the highest performing tokens.
Legend
Token Inputs:
The Impulse Tracker is designed with dynamic asset selection - allowing traders to customize the inputs for each category. This feature enables flexible system management, as the number of active tokens within each category can be adjusted at any time. Whether the user chooses the default of 13 tokens per category, or fewer, the system will automatically recalibrate. This ensures that all calculations, from relative strength to individual performance assessments, adjust as required. Disabled tokens are treated by the system as if they don’t exist - seamlessly updating performance metrics and the Impulse Tracker’s allocation behavior to maintain the highest level of efficiency and accuracy.
System Equity Curve:
The Impulse Tracker plots both the rotational system’s equity and the Buy-and-Hold (or ‘HODL’) benchmark of Bitcoin for comparison. While the HODL approach allocates the entire portfolio to Bitcoin and functions as an index to compare to, the Impulse Tracker dynamically allocates based on strength impulses within the chosen tokens and categories. The system equity curve is representative of adding an equal capital split between the strongest assets of each category. The relative strength system does handle ‘ties’ of strength - in this situation multiple tokens from a single category can be included in the final equity curve, with the allocated weight to that category split between the tied assets.
TABLES:
Equity Stats:
This table is held in Quantra System's typical UI design language. It offers a comprehensive snapshot of the system’s performance, with key metrics organized to help traders quickly assess both short-term and cumulative results. The left side provides details on individual asset performance, while the right side presents a comparison of the system’s risk-adjusted metrics against a simple BTC Hodl strategy.
The leftmost column of the Equity Stats table showcases performance indicators for the system’s current allocations. This provides quick identification of the current strongest tokens, based on confirmed and non-repainting data as soon as the current opens and the last bar closes.
The right-hand side compares the performance differences between the system and Hodl profits, both on a cumulative basis and analyzing only the previous bar. The total number of position changes is also tracked in this table - an important metric when calculating total slippage and should be used to determine how ‘hands-on’ the strategy will be on the current timeframe.
The lower part of the table highlights a direct comparison of the AI x Memes Impulse strategy with buy-and-hold Bitcoin. The risk adjusted performance ratios, Sharpe, Sortino and Omega, are shown side by side, as well as the maximum drawdown experienced by both strategies within the set testing window.
Screener Table:
This table provides a detailed breakdown of the performance for each asset that has been the strongest in its category at some point and thus received an allocation. The table tracks several key metrics for each asset - including returns, volatility, Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, Omega ratio, and maximum drawdown. It also displays the signals for both current and previous periods, as well as the assets weight in the theoretical portfolio. Assets that have never received a signal are also included, giving traders an overview of which assets have contributed to the portfolio's performance and which have not played a role so far.
The position changes cell also offers important insights, as it shows the frequency of not just total position changes, but also rebalancing events.
Detailed Slippage Table:
The Detailed Slippage Table provides a comprehensive breakdown of the calculated slippage and fees incurred throughout the strategy’s operations. It contains several key metrics that give traders a granular view of the costs associated with executing the system:
Selected Slippage - Displays the current slippage rate, as defined in the input menu.
Removal Slippage - This accounts for any slippage or fees incurred when removing an allocation from a token.
Reallocation Slippage - Tracks the slippage or fees when reallocating capital to existing positions.
Addition Slippage - Measures the slippage or fees incurred when allocating capital to new tokens.
Final Slippage - Is the sum of all the individual slippage points and provides a quick view of the total slippage accounted for by the system.
The table is also divided into two columns:
Last Transaction Slippage + Fees - Displays any slippage or fees incurred based on position changes within the current bar.
Total Slippage + Fees - Shows the cumulative slippage and fees incurred since the portfolio’s selected start date.
Visual Customization:
Several customizable features are included within the input menu to enhance user experience. These include custom color palettes, both preloaded and user-selectable. This allows traders to personalize the visual appearance of the tables, ensuring clarity and consistency with their preferred interface themes and background coloring.
Additionally, users can adjust both the position and sizes of all the tables - enabling complete tailoring to the trader’s layout and specific viewing preferences and screen configurations. This level of customization ensures a more intuitive and flexible interaction with the system’s data.
Core Features and Methodologies
Advanced Risk Management - A Unique Filtering Approach:
The Equity Curve Activation Filter introduces an innovative way to dynamically manage capital allocation, aligning with periods of market trend strength. This filter is rooted in the understanding that markets move cyclically - altering between periods trending and mean-reverting periods. This cycle is especially pronounced in the crypto markets, where strong uptrends are often followed by prolonged periods of sideways movements or corrections as participants take profits and momentum fades.
The Cyclical Nature of Markets and Trend Following:
Financial markets do not trend indefinitely. Each uptrend or downtrend, whether over high and low timeframes, tends to culminate in a phase where momentum exhausts - leading to the sideways or corrective phases. This cycle results from the natural dynamics of market participants: during extended trends, more participants jump in, riding the momentum until profit taking causes the trend to slow down or reverse. This cyclical behavior occurs across all timeframes and in all markets - making it essential to adapt trading strategies in attempt to minimize losses during less favorable conditions.
In a trend following system, profitability often mirrors this cyclical pattern. Trend following strategies thrive when markets are moving directionally, capturing gains as price moves with strength in a single direction. However in phases where the market chops sideways, trend following strategies will usually experience drawdowns and reduced returns due to the impersistent nature of any trends. This fluctuation in trend following profitability can actually serve as one of the best coincident indicators of broader market regime change - when profitability begins to fade, it often signals a transition to drawn out unfavorable trend trading conditions.
The Equity Curve as a Market Signal
Within the Impulse Tracker, a continuous equity curve is calculated based upon the system's allocation to the strongest tokens. This equity curve effectively tracks the system’s performance under all market conditions. However, instead of solely relying on the direct performance of the selected tokens, the system applies additional filters to analyze the trend strength of this equity curve itself.
In the same way you only want to purchase an asset that is moving up in price, you only want to allocate capital to a strategy whose equity curve is trending upwards!
The Equity Curve Activation Filter consistently monitors the trend of this equity curve through various filter indicators, such as the “Wave Pendulum Trend”, the “Quasar QSM” and the “MAQSM” (an aggregate of multiple types of averages). These filters help determine whether the equity curve is trending upwards, signaling a favorable period for trend following. When the equity curve is in a positive trend, capital is allocated to the system as normal - allowing it to capture gains during favorable market conditions, Conversely, when the trend weakens and the equity curves begins to stagnate or decline, the activation filter shifts the system into a “cash” positions - temporarily halting allocations in order to prevent market exposure during choppy or mean reverting phases.
Timing Allocation With Market Conditions
This unique filtering approach ensures that the system is primarily active during periods when market trends are most supportive. By aligning capital allocations with the uptrend in trend following profitability, the system is designed to enter during periods of strong momentum and move to cash when momentum with the equity curve wanes. This approach reduces the risk of overtrading in less favorable conditions and preserves capital for the next favorable trend.
In essence the Equity Curve Allocation Filter serves as a dynamic risk management layer that leverages the cyclicality of trend following profitability in order to navigate shifting market phases.
Sensitivity and Signal Responsiveness:
The Quasar Sensitivity Setting allows users to fine-tune the system’s responsiveness to asset signals. High sensitivity settings lead to quicker position changes, making the system highly reactive to short term strength impulses. This is especially useful in fast moving markets where token strength can shift rapidly. The Sensitive setting might be more applicable to higher volatility or lower market cap assets - as the increased volatility increases the necessity of faster position cutting in order to front run the crowd. Of course - a balanced approach is ideal, as if the signals are too fast there will be too many whips and false signals. (And extra fees + slippage!)
The benefit of this script is because of the advanced slippage calculations, false signals are sufficiently punished (unlike systems without fees or slippage) - so it will become immediately apparent if the false signals have a significantly detrimental impact on the system’s equity curve.
Asset specific signals within each category are re-evaluated after the close of each bar to ensure that capital is always allocated to the highest performing asset. If a token’s momentum begins to fade the system swiftly reallocates to the next strongest asset within that category.
Category Filter - Allocates only to the Strongest Asset per group
One of the core innovations of the AI x Meme Impulse Tracker is the customizable Category Filter, which ensures that only the strongest-performing asset within each predefined group receives capital allocation. This approach not only increases the precision of asset selection but also allows traders to tailor the system to specific token narratives or categories. Sectors can include trending themes such as high-attention meme tokens, AI-driven tokens, or even categorize assets by blockchain ecosystems like Ethereum, Solana, or Base chain. This flexibility enables users to align their strategies with the latest market narratives or to optimize for specific groups, focusing on high-beta tokens within well defined sectors for a more targeted exposure. By keeping the focus on category leaders, the system avoids diluting its impact across underperforming assets, thereby maximizing capital efficiency and reducing unnecessary trading costs.
Dynamic Asset Reallocation:
Dynamic reallocation ensures that the system remains nimble and adapts to changing market conditions. Unlike slower systems, the Quasar method continually monitors for changes in asset strength and reallocates capital accordingly - ensuring that the system is always positioned in the highest performing assets within each category.
Position Changes and Slippage:
The Impulse Tracker places a strong emphasis on realistic simulation, prioritizing accuracy over inflated backtest results. This approach ensures that slippage is accounted for in a more aggressive manner than what may be experienced in real-world execution.
Each position change within the system - whether it’s buying, selling, reallocating, or rebalancing between assets - incurs slippage. Slippage is applied to both ends of every transaction: when a position is entered and exited, and when reallocating capital from one token to another. This dynamic behavior is further enhanced by a customizable slippage/fees input, allowing users to simulate realistic transaction costs based on their own market conditions and execution behaviors.
The slippage model works by applying a weighted slippage to the equity curve, taking into account the actual amount of capital being moved. Slippage is not applied in a blanket manner but rather in proportion to the allocation changes. For example, if the system reallocates from a single 100% position to two 50% allocations, slippage will be applied to the 50% removed from the first asset and the 50% added to the new asset, resulting in a 1x slippage multiplier.
This process becomes more granular when multiple assets are involved. For instance, if reallocating from two 50% positions to three 33% positions, slippage will be incurred on each of the changes, but at a reduced rate (⅔ x slippage), reflecting the smaller percentage of portfolio equity being moved. The slippage model accounts for all types of allocation shifts, whether increasing or decreasing the number of tokens held, providing a realistic assessment of system costs.
Here are some detailed examples to illustrate how slippage is calculated based on different scenarios:
100% → 50% / 50%: 1x slippage applied to both position changes (2 allocation changes).
50% / 50% → 33% / 33% / 33%: ⅔ x slippage multiplier applied across 3 allocation changes.
33% / 33% / 33% → 100%: 4/3 x slippage multiplier applied across 3 allocation changes.
In practice, not every position change will be rebalanced perfectly, leading to a lower number of transactions and lower costs in practice. Additionally, with the use of limit orders, a trader can easily reduce the costs of entering a position, as well as ensuring a competitive entry price.
By simulating slippage in this granular manner, the system captures the absolute maximum level of fees and slippage, in order to ensure that backtest results lean towards an underrepresentation - opposed to inflated results compared with practical execution.
A Special Note on Slippage
In the image above, the system has been applied to four different timeframes - 20h, 15h, 10h, and 5h - using identical settings and a selected slippage amount of 2%. By isolating a recent trend leg, we can illustrate an important concept: while the 15h timeframe is more profitable than the 20h timeframe, this difference stems from a core trading principle. Lower timeframes typically provide more data points and allow for quicker entries and exits in a robust system. This often results in reduced downside and compounding of gains.
However, slippage, fees, and execution constraints are limiting factors, especially in volatile, low-cap cryptocurrencies. Although lower timeframes can improve performance by increasing trade frequency, each trade incurs heavy slippage costs that accumulate - impacting the portfolio’s capital at a compounding rate. In this example, the chosen slippage rate of 2% per trade is designed to reflect the realistic trading costs, emphasizing how lower timeframe trading comes at the cost of increased slippage and fees
Finding the optimal balance between timeframe and slippage impact requires careful consideration of factors such as portfolio size, liquidity of selected tokens, execution speed, and the fee rate of the exchange you execute trades on.
Equity Curve and Performance Calculations
To provide a benchmark, the script also generates a Buy-and-Hold (or "HODL") equity curve that represents a complete allocation to Bitcoin. This allows users to easily compare the performance of the dynamic rotation system with that more traditional benchmark strategy.
The script tracks key performance metrics for both the dynamic portfolio and the HODL strategy, including:
Sharpe Ratio
The Sharpe Ratio is a key metric that evaluates a portfolio’s risk-adjusted return by comparing its ‘excess’ return to its volatility. Traditionally, the Sharpe Ratio measures returns relative to a risk-free rate. However, in our system’s calculation, we omit the risk-free rate and instead measure returns above a benchmark of 0%. This adjustment provides a more universal comparison, especially in the context of highly volatile assets like cryptocurrencies, where a traditional risk-free benchmark, such as the usual 3-month T-bills, is often irrelevant or too distant from the realities of the crypto market.
By using 0% as the baseline, we focus purely on the strategy's ability to generate raw returns in the face of market risk, which makes it easier to compare performance across different strategies or asset classes. In an environment like cryptocurrency, where volatility can be extreme, the importance of relative return against a highly volatile backdrop outweighs comparisons to a risk-free rate that bears little resemblance to the risk profile of digital assets.
Sortino Ratio
The Sortino Ratio improves upon the Sharpe Ratio by specifically targeting downside risk and leaves the upside potential untouched. In contrast to the Sharpe Ratio (which penalizes both upside and downside volatility), the Sortino Ratio focuses only on negative return deviations. This makes it a more suitable metric for evaluating strategies like the AI x Meme Impulse Tracker - that aim to minimize drawdowns without restricting upside capture. By measuring returns relative to a 0% baseline, the Sortino ratio provides a clearer assessment of how well the system generates gains while avoiding substantial losses in highly volatile markets like crypto.
Omega Ratio
The Omega Ratio is calculated as the ratio of gains to losses across all return thresholds, providing a more complete view of how the system balances upside and downside risk even compared to the Sortino Ratio. While it achieves a similar outcome to the Sortino Ratio by emphasizing the system's ability to capture gains while limiting losses, it is technically a mathematically superior method. However, we include both the Omega and Sortino ratios in our metric table, as the Sortino Ratio remains more widely recognized and commonly understood by traders and investors of all levels.
Usage Summary:
While the backtests in this description are generated as if a trader held a portfolio of just the strongest tokens, this was mainly designed as a method of logical verification and not a recommended investment strategy. In practice, this system can be used in multiple ways.
It can be used as above, or as a factor in forming part of a broader asset selection system, or even a method of filtering tokens by strength in order to inform a day trader which tokens might be optimal to look for long-only trading setups on an intrabar timeframe.
Final Summary:
The AI x Meme Impulse Tracker is a powerful algorithm that leverages a unique strength and impulse based approach to asset allocation within high beta token categories. Built with a robust risk management framework, the system’s Equity Curve Activation Filter dynamically manages capital exposure based on the cyclical nature of market trends, minimizing exposure during weaker phases.
With highly customizable settings, the Impulse Tracker enables precise capital allocation to only the strongest assets, informed by real-time metrics and rigorous slippage modeling in order to provide the best view of historical profitability. This adaptable design, coupled with advanced performance analytics, makes it a versatile tool for traders seeking an edge in fast moving and volatile crypto markets.
