HL2 Moving Average with BandsThis indicator is designed to assist traders in identifying potential trade entries and exits for S&P 500 (ES) and Nasdaq-100 (NQ) futures. It calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) based on the HL2 value (average of high and low prices) of the current candle over a user-defined lookback period (default: 200 periods). The indicator plots this SMA as a blue line, providing a smoothed reference for price trends.
Additionally, it includes upper and lower bands calculated as a percentage (default: 0.5%) above and below the SMA, plotted as green and red lines, respectively. These bands act as dynamic thresholds to identify overbought or oversold conditions. The indicator generates trade signals based on price action relative to these bands:
Long Entry: A green upward triangle is plotted below the candle when the close crosses above the upper band, signaling a potential buy.
Close Long: A red square is plotted above the candle when the close crosses back below the upper band, indicating an exit for the long position.
Short Entry: A red downward triangle is plotted above the candle when the close crosses below the lower band, signaling a potential sell.
Close Short: A green square is plotted below the candle when the close crosses back above the lower band, indicating an exit for the short position.
The script is customizable, allowing users to adjust the SMA length and band percentage to suit their trading style or market conditions. It is plotted as an overlay on the price chart for easy integration with other technical analysis tools.
Recommended Time Frame and Settings for Trading S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 Futures
Based on research and market dynamics for S&P 500 (ES) and Nasdaq-100 (NQ) futures, the 5-minute chart is recommended as the optimal time frame for day trading with this indicator. This time frame strikes a balance between capturing intraday trends and filtering out excessive noise, which is critical for futures trading due to their high volatility and leverage. The 5-minute chart aligns well with periods of high liquidity and volatility, such as the U.S. market open (9:30 AM–11:00 AM EST) and the afternoon session (2:00 PM–4:00 PM EST), when institutional traders are most active.
Why 5-minute? It allows traders to react to short-term price movements while avoiding the rapid fluctuations of 1-minute charts, which can be prone to false signals in choppy markets. It also provides enough data points to make the SMA and bands meaningful without the lag associated with longer time frames like 15-minute or hourly charts.
Recommended Settings
SMA Length: Set to 200 periods. This longer lookback period smooths the HL2 data, reducing noise and providing a reliable trend reference for the 5-minute chart. A 200-period SMA helps identify significant trend shifts without being overly sensitive to minor price fluctuations.
Band Percentage: 0.5% is more suitable for the volatility of ES and NQ futures on a 5-minute chart, as it generates fewer but higher-probability signals. Wider bands (e.g., 1%) may miss short-term opportunities, while narrower bands (e.g., 0.1%) may produce excessive false signals.
Trading Session Recommendations
Futures markets for ES and NQ are open nearly 24 hours (Sunday 6:00 PM EST to Friday 5:00 PM EST, with a daily break from 4:00 PM–5:00 PM EST), but not all hours are equally optimal due to varying liquidity and volatility. The best times to trade with this indicator are:
U.S. Market Open (9:30 AM–11:00 AM EST): This period is characterized by high volume and volatility, driven by the opening of U.S. equity markets and economic data releases (e.g., 8:30 AM EST reports like CPI or GDP). The indicator’s signals are more reliable during this window due to strong order flow and price momentum.
Afternoon Session (2:00 PM–4:00 PM EST): After the lunchtime lull, volume picks up as institutional traders return, and news or FOMC announcements often drive price action. The indicator can capture breakout moves as prices test the upper or lower bands.
Pre-Market (7:30 AM–9:30 AM EST): For traders comfortable with lower liquidity, this period can offer opportunities, especially around 8:30 AM EST economic releases. However, use tighter risk management due to wider spreads and potential volatility spikes.
Additional Tips
Avoid Low-Volume Periods: Steer clear of trading during low-liquidity hours, such as the overnight session (11:00 PM–3:00 AM EST), when spreads widen and price movements can be erratic, leading to false signals from the indicator.
Combine with Other Tools: Enhance the indicator’s effectiveness by pairing it with support/resistance levels, Fibonacci retracements, or volume analysis to confirm signals. For example, a long entry signal above the upper band is stronger if it coincides with a breakout above a key resistance level.
Risk Management: Given the leverage in futures (e.g., Micro E-mini contracts require ~$1,200 margin for ES), use tight stop-losses (e.g., below the lower band for longs or above the upper band for shorts) to manage risk. Aim for a risk-reward ratio of at least 1:2.
Test Settings: Backtest the indicator on a demo account to optimize the SMA length and band percentage for your specific trading style and risk tolerance. Micro E-mini contracts (MES for S&P 500, MNQ for Nasdaq-100) are ideal for testing due to their lower capital requirements.
Why These Settings and Time Frame?
The 5-minute chart with a 200-period SMA and 0.5% bands is tailored for the volatility and liquidity of ES and NQ futures during peak trading hours. The longer SMA period ensures the indicator captures meaningful trends, while the 0.5% bands are tight enough to signal actionable breakouts but wide enough to avoid excessive whipsaws. Trading during high-volume sessions maximizes the likelihood of valid signals, as institutional participation drives clearer price action.
By focusing on these settings and time frames, traders can leverage the indicator to capitalize on the dynamic price movements of S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 futures while managing the inherent risks of these markets.

Pivot Levels with EMA Trend📌 Trend Change Levels with EMA Trend
✨ Description:
This TradingView script identifies clean trend change levels based on 1-hour structure shifts and filters them to keep only those not invalidated. It follows the "Jake Ricci" method, each level is printed at the beginning of the candle that changes the trend, on a 1 hour chart. For precision, make sure to exclude after/pre market and only use the levels on regular hours charts.
It includes dynamic EMAs (9, 50, 200), intraday VWAP, the daily open level printed, and a visual trend label based on EMA(9) slope.
Designed for intermediate traders, it helps build bias, manage entries, and avoid false setups by focusing on clean, reactive levels that the market respects.
🔧 Core Logic:
On the 1H chart, the script compares current and previous closes to detect trend direction. If the trend flips (e.g., up to down), the open of the candle that caused the flip becomes a candidate level.
Only levels that remain untouched by future candle closes are plotted — this filters out “weak” levels that price already violated (which means, a candle closes after passing through the level).
These levels become key S/R zones and often act as reaction points during pullbacks, traps, and liquidity sweeps.
The idea is to check how the price reacts to those levels. Usually there's a clean retest of the level. After that, if the price continues in that direction, it tends to reach the following level.
🔹 Included Tools:
🟣 Trend Change Levels (1H):
Fixed horizontal lines based on confirmed shifts in trend, shown only when not broken.
📉 EMAs (9 / 50 / 200):
Visibility can be set per timeframe. Use for trend context.
📍 EMA Trend Label:
Shows \"UP\", \"DOWN\", or \"RANGE\" based on EMA(9) slope.
🔵 VWAP (Intraday Reset):
Real-time volume-weighted average price that resets daily. Useful for fair value zones and reversion plays.
🟠 Daily Open Line:
Plot of the current day’s open. Used for intraday directional bias. Usually: DO NOT take longs below the Open Print, DO NOT take shorts above it.
📊 ATR Table:
Displays current ATR multiplier on the chart. It's useful to understand if the market is expanding or not.
📈 How to Use It (Strategy):
1. Start on the 1H chart to generate levels.
Only the open of candles that reversed trend are considered — and only if future candles didn’t close through them. I suggest manually adding horizontal lines to mark again the levels, so that they stick to all the timeframes.
2. Use the trend label to decide your bias — \"UP\" for long setups, \"DOWN\" for shorts. Avoid trading against the slope.
3. Switch to the 5m chart and wait for price to approach a plotted level. These are often used for manipulation, retests, or clean reversals.
4. Look for confirmation: rejection candles, break-and-retest, strong engulfing candles, or traps above/below the level. ALWAYS check the price action around the level, along with the volume.
5. Check if VWAP or an EMA is near the level. If yes, the confluence strengthens the trade idea.
6. Use the ATR value to understand if the market is expanding (candles are bigger than the ATR). You don't want to stay in a slow and ranging trade.
✅ Example Entry Flow:
1. On the 1H chart, note a trend change level printed recently.
2. Check the current trend label — if it says \"UP,\" prefer longs.
3. Wait for price to retrace toward the level.
4. On the 5m, look for a bullish engulfing candle or trap setup at the level.
5. Check if VWAP and EMA(50) are near. If yes, execute the trade.
6. Set stop just under the low of the candle prior to your entry. Ideally, a retracing candle.
To be clear: imaging to be LONG, you wait for a retracement that should touch your level. You wait for a candle that resumes the LONG trend, enter when it breaks the high of the previous candle (sill in retracement), you place your stop under the candle prior to your entry.
Notes:
No repainting — levels only show up after confirmed shifts.
Removes broken levels for chart clarity and reliability.
Helps spot high-probability pullback zones and fakeouts.
Perfect confluence tool to support price action, SMC, or EMA strategies.
Works across multiple timeframes with customizable inputs.
👤 Ideal For:
Intraday traders looking for reactive entry points and direction confirmation.
Swing traders wanting to pinpoint continuation zones or reversal pivots.
🚨 Final Note: This indicator doesn’t generate buy/sell signals. It improves your trade filtering by identifying areas the market already respected and reacting to them with price action. Combine it with your own system , test it in replay, and use screenshots to document setups.
📌 If used with discipline, this becomes a precision tool — not a signal generator.

Smart Liquidity Wave [The_lurker]"Smart Liquidity Wave" هو مؤشر تحليلي متطور يهدف لتحديد نقاط الدخول والخروج المثلى بناءً على تحليل السيولة، قوة الاتجاه، وإشارات السوق المفلترة. يتميز المؤشر بقدرته على تصنيف الأدوات المالية إلى أربع فئات سيولة (ضعيفة، متوسطة، عالية، عالية جدًا)، مع تطبيق شروط مخصصة لكل فئة تعتمد على تحليل الموجات السعرية، الفلاتر المتعددة، ومؤشر ADX.
فكرة المؤشر
الفكرة الأساسية هي الجمع بين قياس السيولة اليومية الثابتة وتحليل ديناميكي للسعر باستخدام فلاتر متقدمة لتوليد إشارات دقيقة. المؤشر يركز على تصفية الضوضاء في السوق من خلال طبقات متعددة من التحليل، مما يجعله أداة ذكية تتكيف مع الأدوات المالية المختلفة بناءً على مستوى سيولتها.
طريقة عمل المؤشر
1- قياس السيولة:
يتم حساب السيولة باستخدام متوسط حجم التداول على مدى 14 يومًا مضروبًا في سعر الإغلاق، ويتم ذلك دائمًا على الإطار الزمني اليومي لضمان ثبات القيمة بغض النظر عن الإطار الزمني المستخدم في الرسم البياني.
يتم تصنيف السيولة إلى:
ضعيفة: أقل من 5 ملايين (قابل للتعديل).
متوسطة: من 5 إلى 20 مليون.
عالية: من 20 إلى 50 مليون.
عالية جدًا: أكثر من 50 مليون.
هذا الثبات في القياس يضمن أن تصنيف السيولة لا يتغير مع تغير الإطار الزمني، مما يوفر أساسًا موثوقًا للإشارات.
2- تحليل الموجات السعرية:
يعتمد المؤشر على تحليل الموجات باستخدام متوسطات متحركة متعددة الأنواع (مثل SMA، EMA، WMA، HMA، وغيرها) يمكن للمستخدم اختيارها وتخصيص فتراتها ، يتم دمج هذا التحليل مع مؤشرات إضافية مثل RSI (مؤشر القوة النسبية) وMFI (مؤشر تدفق الأموال) بوزن محدد (40% للموجات، 30% لكل من RSI وMFI) للحصول على تقييم شامل للاتجاه.
3- الفلاتر وطريقة عملها:
المؤشر يستخدم نظام فلاتر متعدد الطبقات لتصفية الإشارات وتقليل الضوضاء، وهي من أبرز الجوانب المخفية التي تعزز دقته:
الفلتر الرئيسي (Main Filter):
يعمل على تنعيم التغيرات السعرية السريعة باستخدام معادلة رياضية تعتمد على تحليل الإشارات (Signal Processing).
يتم تطبيقه على السعر لاستخراج الاتجاهات الأساسية بعيدًا عن التقلبات العشوائية، مع فترة زمنية قابلة للتعديل (افتراضي: 30).
يستخدم تقنية مشابهة للفلاتر عالية التردد (High-Pass Filter) للتركيز على الحركات الكبيرة.
الفلتر الفرعي (Sub Filter):
يعمل كطبقة ثانية للتصفية، مع فترة أقصر (افتراضي: 12)، لضبط الإشارات بدقة أكبر.
يستخدم معادلات تعتمد على الترددات المنخفضة للتأكد من أن الإشارات الناتجة تعكس تغيرات حقيقية وليست مجرد ضوضاء.
إشارة الزناد (Signal Trigger):
يتم تطبيق متوسط متحرك على نتائج الفلتر الرئيسي لتوليد خط إشارة (Signal Line) يُقارن مع عتبات محددة للدخول والخروج.
يمكن تعديل فترة الزناد (افتراضي: 3 للدخول، 5 للخروج) لتسريع أو تبطيء الإشارات.
الفلتر المربع (Square Filter):
خاصية مخفية تُفعّل افتراضيًا تعزز دقة الفلاتر عن طريق تضييق نطاق التذبذبات المسموح بها، مما يقلل من الإشارات العشوائية في الأسواق المتقلبة.
4- تصفية الإشارات باستخدام ADX:
يتم استخدام مؤشر ADX كفلتر نهائي للتأكد من قوة الاتجاه قبل إصدار الإشارة:
ضعيفة ومتوسطة: دخول عندما يكون ADX فوق 40، خروج فوق 50.
عالية: دخول فوق 40، خروج فوق 55.
عالية جدًا: دخول فوق 35، خروج فوق 38.
هذه العتبات قابلة للتعديل، مما يسمح بتكييف المؤشر مع استراتيجيات مختلفة.
5- توليد الإشارات:
الدخول: يتم إصدار إشارة شراء عندما تنخفض خطوط الإشارة إلى ما دون عتبة محددة (مثل -9) مع تحقق شروط الفلاتر، السيولة، وADX.
الخروج: يتم إصدار إشارة بيع عندما ترتفع الخطوط فوق عتبة (مثل 109 أو 106 حسب الفئة) مع تحقق الشروط الأخرى.
تُعرض الإشارات بألوان مميزة (أزرق للدخول، برتقالي للضعيفة والمتوسطة، أحمر للعالية والعالية جدًا) وبثلاثة أحجام (صغير، متوسط، كبير).
6- عرض النتائج:
يظهر مستوى السيولة الحالي في جدول في أعلى يمين الرسم البياني، مما يتيح للمستخدم معرفة فئة الأصل بسهولة.
7- دعم التنبيهات:
تنبيهات فورية لكل فئة سيولة، مما يسهل التداول الآلي أو اليدوي.
%%%%% الجوانب المخفية في الكود %%%%%
معادلات الفلاتر المتقدمة: يستخدم المؤشر معادلات رياضية معقدة مستوحاة من معالجة الإشارات لتنعيم البيانات واستخراج الاتجاهات، مما يجعله أكثر دقة من المؤشرات التقليدية.
التكيف التلقائي: النظام يضبط نفسه داخليًا بناءً على التغيرات في السعر والحجم، مع عوامل تصحيح مخفية (مثل معامل التنعيم في الفلاتر) للحفاظ على الاستقرار.
التوزيع الموزون: الدمج بين الموجات، RSI، وMFI يتم بأوزان محددة (40%، 30%، 30%) لضمان توازن التحليل، وهي تفاصيل غير ظاهرة مباشرة للمستخدم لكنها تؤثر على النتائج.
الفلتر المربع: خيار مخفي يتم تفعيله افتراضيًا لتضييق نطاق الإشارات، مما يقلل من التشتت في الأسواق ذات التقلبات العالية.
مميزات المؤشر
1- فلاتر متعددة الطبقات: تضمن تصفية الضوضاء وإنتاج إشارات موثوقة فقط.
2- ثبات السيولة: قياس السيولة اليومي يجعل التصنيف متسقًا عبر الإطارات الزمنية.
3- تخصيص شامل: يمكن تعديل حدود السيولة، عتبات ADX، فترات الفلاتر، وأنواع المتوسطات المتحركة.
4- إشارات مرئية واضحة: تصميم بصري يسهل التفسير مع تنبيهات فورية.
5- تقليل الإشارات الخاطئة: الجمع بين الفلاتر وADX يعزز الدقة ويقلل من التشتت.

#### **What is the Smart Liquidity Wave Indicator?**
"Smart Liquidity Wave" is an advanced analytical indicator designed to identify optimal entry and exit points based on liquidity analysis, trend strength, and filtered market signals. It stands out with its ability to categorize financial instruments into four liquidity levels (Weak, Medium, High, Very High), applying customized conditions for each category based on price wave analysis, multi-layered filters, and the ADX (Average Directional Index).
#### **Concept of the Indicator**
The core idea is to combine a stable daily liquidity measurement with dynamic price analysis using sophisticated filters to generate precise signals. The indicator focuses on eliminating market noise through multiple analytical layers, making it an intelligent tool that adapts to various financial instruments based on their liquidity levels.
#### **How the Indicator Works**
1. **Liquidity Measurement:**
- Liquidity is calculated using the 14-day average trading volume multiplied by the closing price, always based on the daily timeframe to ensure value consistency regardless of the chart’s timeframe.
- Liquidity is classified as:
- **Weak:** Less than 5 million (adjustable).
- **Medium:** 5 to 20 million.
- **High:** 20 to 50 million.
- **Very High:** Over 50 million.
- This consistency in measurement ensures that liquidity classification remains unchanged across different timeframes, providing a reliable foundation for signals.
2. **Price Wave Analysis:**
- The indicator relies on wave analysis using various types of moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, etc.), which users can select and customize in terms of periods.
- This analysis is integrated with additional indicators like RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MFI (Money Flow Index), weighted specifically (40% waves, 30% RSI, 30% MFI) to provide a comprehensive trend assessment.
3. **Filters and Their Functionality:**
- The indicator employs a multi-layered filtering system to refine signals and reduce noise, a key hidden feature that enhances its accuracy:
- **Main Filter:**
- Smooths rapid price fluctuations using a mathematical equation rooted in signal processing techniques.
- Applied to price data to extract core trends away from random volatility, with an adjustable period (default: 30).
- Utilizes a technique similar to high-pass filters to focus on significant movements.
- **Sub Filter:**
- Acts as a secondary filtering layer with a shorter period (default: 12) for finer signal tuning.
- Employs low-frequency-based equations to ensure resulting signals reflect genuine changes rather than mere noise.
- **Signal Trigger:**
- Applies a moving average to the main filter’s output to generate a signal line, compared against predefined entry and exit thresholds.
- Trigger period is adjustable (default: 3 for entry, 5 for exit) to speed up or slow down signals.
- **Square Filter:**
- A hidden feature activated by default, enhancing filter precision by narrowing the range of permissible oscillations, reducing random signals in volatile markets.
4. **Signal Filtering with ADX:**
- ADX is used as a final filter to confirm trend strength before issuing signals:
- **Weak and Medium:** Entry when ADX exceeds 40, exit above 50.
- **High:** Entry above 40, exit above 55.
- **Very High:** Entry above 35, exit above 38.
- These thresholds are adjustable, allowing the indicator to adapt to different trading strategies.
5. **Signal Generation:**
- **Entry:** A buy signal is triggered when signal lines drop below a specific threshold (e.g., -9) and conditions for filters, liquidity, and ADX are met.
- **Exit:** A sell signal is issued when signal lines rise above a threshold (e.g., 109 or 106, depending on the category) with all conditions satisfied.
- Signals are displayed in distinct colors (blue for entry, orange for Weak/Medium, red for High/Very High) and three sizes (small, medium, large).
6. **Result Display:**
- The current liquidity level is shown in a table at the top-right of the chart, enabling users to easily identify the asset’s category.
7. **Alert Support:**
- Instant alerts are provided for each liquidity category, facilitating both automated and manual trading.
#### **Hidden Aspects in the Code**
- **Advanced Filter Equations:** The indicator uses complex mathematical formulas inspired by signal processing to smooth data and extract trends, making it more precise than traditional indicators.
- **Automatic Adaptation:** The system internally adjusts based on price and volume changes, with hidden correction factors (e.g., smoothing coefficients in filters) to maintain stability.
- **Weighted Distribution:** The integration of waves, RSI, and MFI uses fixed weights (40%, 30%, 30%) for balanced analysis, a detail not directly visible but impactful on results.
- **Square Filter:** A hidden option, enabled by default, narrows signal range to minimize dispersion in high-volatility markets.
#### **Indicator Features**
1. **Multi-Layered Filters:** Ensures noise reduction and delivers only reliable signals.
2. **Liquidity Stability:** Daily liquidity measurement keeps classification consistent across timeframes.
3. **Comprehensive Customization:** Allows adjustments to liquidity thresholds, ADX levels, filter periods, and moving average types.
4. **Clear Visual Signals:** User-friendly design with easy-to-read visuals and instant alerts.
5. **Reduced False Signals:** Combining filters and ADX enhances accuracy and minimizes clutter.

BUY & SELL Dynamic DCA StrategyOverview
The BUY & SELL Dynamic DCA Strategy is a versatile Pine Script indicator designed for traders seeking a robust Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) approach to manage both long and short positions across various market conditions and timeframes. This innovative tool combines breakout-based level initiation with a dynamic volatility adjustment, enabling traders to enter positions at optimal DCA points, average them strategically, and manage risk with adjustable stop-loss and take-profit levels. Ideal for scalping on short timeframes (1-minute, 5-minute) or swing trading on longer ones (15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour).
Purpose and Originality
The "BUY & SELL Dynamic DCA Strategy" stands out by integrating several trading concepts into a cohesive, trader-friendly system. While it leverages familiar elements like breakout points and ATR (Average True Range), its originality lies in:
Dynamic Volatility Adjustment: A custom volatility factor, derived from a capped ATR calculation, dynamically scales DCA entry, averaging, and stop-loss levels. This ensures the strategy adapts to market conditions, tightening in low volatility for scalping and widening in high volatility for swing trading.
Dual-Direction DCA: Supports both buy (long) entries on pullbacks and sell (short) entries on rallies, with tailored averaging and exit strategies for each.
Timeframe Versatility: Adjusts its sensitivity based on the chart timeframe, making it suitable for rapid scalping or longer-term trend riding without requiring manual recalibration.
This unique synthesis justifies its publication as a invite-only script, offering a practical tool that enhances traditional DCA methods with adaptive precision.
How It Works
The indicator operates through a multi-step process designed to optimize entry, averaging, and exit points:
1. Initial Level Setting:
Utilizes high and low threshold (calculated over a user-defined period) to establish initial DCA entry levels. If no threshold is detected, it defaults to the previous bar’s price, ensuring immediate applicability.
2. Dynamic DCA Entry:
Entry levels are adjusted using a proprietary volatility factor, which scales the distance from the current price. Long entries trigger when the price falls below this level, while short entries trigger when the price rises above it, with a volume confirmation filter to reduce noise.
3. Averaging Mechanism:
A secondary level (Averaging Level) allows traders to add to their position when the price moves further against the trade (down for longs, up for shorts). This level is also volatility-adjusted, providing a structured cost-reduction strategy.
4. Risk and Reward Management:
A Final Stop-Loss (Final SL) is set farther out, calculated as a multiple of the volatility-adjusted risk distance, offering protection after averaging.
Take-Profit (TP) levels are determined using a user-defined risk-to-reward ratio, ensuring a balanced exit strategy tailored to market movement.
5. Performance Tracking:
A real-time win/loss table in the top-right corner records trade outcomes, with wins and losses color-coded based on the trade direction (green/red for long, red/green for short), aiding performance evaluation.
Features
1. Dual-Mode Operation : Facilitates both long entries on price dips and short entries on price surges, adaptable to bullish and bearish markets.
2. Volatility-Adaptive Levels: Employs a custom ATR-based adjustment to scale entry, averaging, and stop-loss levels, enhancing responsiveness across timeframes.
3. Visual Tools: Features dashed lines and labels for DCA Entry (green for long, red for short), Final SL (red), and TP (cyan), with debug labels for entries and averages.
4. Timeframe Flexibility: Automatically adjusts threshold periods and volatility factors based on the chart timeframe (1m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h), optimizing for scalping or swing trading.
5. Customizable Parameters: Allows fine-tuning of period, DCA factors, and visibility options.
Settings
Base Length (default: 10): Base period for pivot calculations, scaled by timeframe (e.g., 10 becomes 20 on 5m).
Type: 'Wicks' (high/low) or 'Body' (open/close) for price-based levels.
RR Ratio (default: 1.2): Risk-to-reward ratio for TP calculation.
DCA Entry Factor (default: 1.0): Multiplier for volatility-adjusted DCA entry distance.
Avg Level Factor (default: 2.0): Multiplier for averaging level distance.
Final SL Factor (default: 3.0): Multiplier for final stop-loss distance.
SL Type: 'Close' or 'High/Low' for stop-loss evaluation.
Show DCA Entry, Show Avg Level, Show Final SL: Toggle visibility of respective lines.
Show Win/Loss Table: Enable/disable performance tracking.
Line Style: Select 'Solid', 'Dashed', or 'Dotted'.
Usage Instructions
1. Application:
Add the "BUY & SELL Dynamic DCA Strategy - JOAT" via the Pine Editor or community scripts on TradingView.
2. Configuration:
Scalping (1m, 5m): Set Base Length to 5-10, use a low DCA Entry Factor (0.5-1.0) for tight entries, and a Final SL Factor of 2.0-3.0.
Swing Trading (15m, 1h, 4h): Increase Base Length to 15-20, use a higher DCA Entry Factor (1.0-2.0), and set Final SL Factor to 3.0-4.0 for wider stops.
Enable visual elements and adjust Line Style as preferred.
3. Signal Interpretation:
Long Trade: A green dashed "DCA Entry" line below the price triggers a "Long Entry" label on crossover down.
Short Trade: A red dashed "DCA Entry" line above the price triggers a "Short Entry" label on crossover up.
Averaging: A yellow "Avg" label (long) or magenta "Avg" label (short) appears at the respective averaging level.
Exits: TP (cyan) for wins, Final SL (red) for losses, tracked in the win/loss table.
Trade Management:
Scalping: Use 1m/5m for quick trades, averaging as price moves against you.
Swing Trading: Use 15m/1h/4h to capture trends, averaging for cost adjustment.
Manually adjust position size for averaging based on risk tolerance.
5. Performance Monitoring:
The top-right table updates with wins (green/red) and losses (red/green) per trade type, helping assess strategy effectiveness.

Manual Averaging: Requires manual position size adjustment at the Averaging Level; automation is not included.
Timeframe Sensitivity: May require parameter tuning for optimal performance across 1m to 4h.
No Trend Filter: Sideways markets may generate noise; adding a trend indicator could enhance accuracy (future development).
Initialization Delay: First trade may be delayed until a pivot is detected, using the current price as a fallback.
Originality Justification
The custom volAdj method, which caps ATR at a percentage of price and scales it by timeframe, offering a unique volatility adjustment not found in standard indicators.
The dual-direction DCA with averaging, combining long and short strategies with volatility-modulated levels, providing a comprehensive trading framework.
The timeframe-adaptive design, automatically adjusting pivot periods and volatility factors, making it a versatile tool across scalping and swing trading.
AstroTrading_DragonCombine1. Table Setup and User Inputs
Table Position and Font Size:
The script begins by asking the user to select a table position (e.g. Top Right) and a font size (Small, Medium, Large, Huge) via input options.
pinescript
Kopyala
positionInput = input.string("Sağ Üst Köşe", title="Tablo Konumu", options= )
fontSizeInput = input.string("Orta", title="Yazı Punto Büyüklüğü", options= )
Table Creation:
A table is created using table.new with 6 rows and 4 columns. The location of the table is determined by the selected input. This table will later display the name, entry, target, and stop levels for each of the five strategies.
2. Variable Declarations
The script defines several persistent variables to store levels for each indicator. These include:
Entry, target, and stop levels for each of the five sub-indicators (labeled as _1, _2, _3, _4, and _5).
Examples include targetLevel_1, fibLow_1, lastEntry_1, lastTarget_1, etc.
3. Indicator 1 – AstroTrading_AlphaBalance
Logic:
This part examines the previous candle’s high and low to compute its range. It then defines two conditions:
conditionUp_1: When the current close exceeds the previous high by at least 50% of the previous range.
conditionDown_1: When the current close falls below the previous low by 50% of the previous range.
Action:
Depending on whether the move is upward or downward, the script sets:
For an upward move:
fibLow_1 is set to the current low.
The entry level is taken as the current high.
The target is computed by taking the high and subtracting –0.786 times the range (this negative multiplier inverts the move).
The stop is set at the previous low.
For a downward move, similar logic applies with reversed roles.
Purpose:
This module generates a primary signal (AlphaBalance) based on extreme candle movements relative to the prior candle’s range.
4. Indicator 2 – AstroTrading_CandleElongation
Higher Timeframe Data:
The script uses the request.security function to obtain high, low, close, and open values from a user-specified timeframe.
Fibonacci Extension Calculation:
A function fiboExtension calculates two Fibonacci extension levels (approximately 0.786 and 1.618 multipliers) based on three price points.
Signal Conditions:
It checks if the previous candle (two bars ago) meets certain criteria relative to its open, and if the current candle’s close confirms an elongation move.
Output:
If conditions are met, the script sets:
candleEntry_2 to the lower Fibonacci level,
candleTarget_2 to the higher Fibonacci extension,
candleStop_2 to the current low (for a bullish setup) or high (for bearish).
Purpose:
This sub-indicator looks to capture significant candle elongation moves by using Fibonacci extension levels to define entry, target, and stop.
5. Indicator 3 – AstroTrading_FlaGama
Similar to a Flag Formation:
Like the previous “FlaGama” indicator, it checks if the current close is more than 50% beyond the previous candle’s high (conditionUp_3) or below the previous low (conditionDown_3).
Bar Coloring:
If either condition is met, the bar is colored orange to signal an extreme move.
Signal Generation:
Depending on the move’s direction:
Bullish Setup:
Calculates a Fibonacci level at 78.6% from the current low to high.
Sets the entry at this Fibonacci level.
The target is computed by adding the difference between the current high and the Fibonacci level to the current high.
The stop is set at the current low.
Bearish Setup:
Mirrors the Fibonacci calculation to derive a level for short entry.
The target is set below the current low, and the stop is at the current high.
Purpose:
The FlaGama section provides confirmation signals when extreme moves occur, helping traders decide on potential reversals.
6. Indicator 4 – AstroTrading_HermDown
EMA Crossover:
An EMA (111-period) is calculated. A crossover of the EMA above the close triggers a “kesilme” (cutoff) event.
First Candle Identification:
Once a crossover is detected, the next candle’s close is monitored. If that candle’s close remains below the cutoff level, it is considered the “first candle” of the HermDown setup.
Fibonacci Retracement:
It then calculates the highest high over the last 30 bars and derives a target level (fibNeg0618_4) at about 48.6% retracement from that high.
Signal Levels:
The entry is the cutoff close, the target is the calculated Fibonacci level, and the stop is the low of the cutoff candle.
Purpose:
This module aims to capture bearish reversals (HermDown) when the price drops sharply below an EMA, using Fibonacci retracement as a guide.
7. Indicator 5 – AstroTrading_HermUp
EMA Crossunder:
Similarly, an EMA (111-period) is used. A crossunder (EMA crossing below the close) signals a potential bullish reversal.
First Candle Confirmation:
The next candle’s close is checked to confirm the move.
Fibonacci Level:
A Fibonacci extension (approximately 61.8% of the distance from the cutoff close to the high) is computed to serve as the target.
Signal Levels:
The entry is set at the cutoff close, the target is the Fibonacci level, and the stop is set at the low.
Purpose:
This section captures bullish reversal signals (HermUp) when the price moves above an EMA.
8. Displaying Levels in a Table
Aggregating Data:
The script gathers the entry, target, and stop levels from all five sub-indicators.
Table Layout:
The table displays five rows (one for each indicator) with four columns:
Indicator name (e.g., “AlphaBalance”, “CandleElongation”, “FlaGama”, “HermDown”, “HermUp”)
Entry level
Target level
Stop level
Color Coding:
Entry cells have a blue background.
Target cells are colored green if above the current close or red if below.
Stop cells are given a gray background.
Purpose:
This consolidated view allows traders to quickly assess all key levels from different strategies on the chart.
Summary
The “AstroTrading_DragonCombine” indicator is a multi-faceted tool that merges five distinct trading setups into one comprehensive display. Each sub-indicator utilizes a unique method—ranging from extreme candle moves and Fibonacci extensions to EMA crossovers—to determine entry, target, and stop levels. These levels are then neatly summarized in a table overlay on the chart. By combining these approaches, traders can gain a broader perspective on market conditions and potential reversal points, enhancing their decision-making process while adhering to sound risk management principles.
This explanation is written to meet TradingView’s script publication standards, providing a clear, objective, and detailed overview of the indicator’s functionality and logic.

Price Action Trend and Margin EquityThe Price Action Trend and Margin Equity indicator is a multifunctional market analysis tool that combines elements of money management and price pattern analysis. The indicator helps traders identify key price action patterns and determine optimal entry, exit and stop loss levels based on the current trend.
The main components of the indicator:
Money Management:
Allows the trader to set risk management parameters such as the percentage of possible loss on the position, the use of fixed leverage and the total capital.
Calculates the required leverage level to achieve a specified percentage of loss.
Price Action:
Correctly identifies various price patterns such as Pin Bar, Engulfing Bar, PPR Bar and Inside Bar.
Displays these patterns on the chart with the ability to customize candle colors and display styles.
Allows the trader to customize take profit and stop loss points to display them on the chart.
The ability to display patterns only in the direction of the trend.
Trend: (some code taken from ChartPrime)
Uses a trend cloud to visualize the current market direction.
The trend cloud is displayed on the chart and helps traders determine whether the market is in an uptrend or a downtrend.
Alert:
Allows you to set an alert that will be triggered when the pattern is formed.
Example of use:
Let's say a trader uses the indicator to trade the crypto market. He sets the money management parameters, setting the maximum loss per position to 5% and using a fixed leverage of 1:100. The indicator automatically calculates the required position size to meet these parameters ($: on the label). Or displays the leverage (X: on the label) to achieve the required risk.
The trader receives an alert when a Pin Bar is formed. The indicator displays the entry, exit, and stop loss levels based on this pattern. The trader opens a position for the recommended amount in the direction indicated by the indicator and sets the stop loss and take profit at the recommended levels.
General Settings:
Position Loss Percentage: Sets the maximum loss percentage you are willing to take on a single position.
Use Fixed Leverage: Enables or disables the use of fixed leverage.
Fixed Leverage: Sets the fixed leverage level.
Total Equity: Specifies the total equity you are using for trading. (Required for calculation when using fixed leverage)
Turn Patterns On/Off: You can turn on or off the display of various price patterns such as Pin Bar, Outside Bar (Engulfing), Inside Bar, and PPR Bar.
Pattern Colors: Sets the colors for displaying each pattern on the chart.
Candle Color: Allows you to set a neutral color for candles that do not match the price action.
Show Lines: Allows you to turn on or off the display of labels and lines.
Line Length: Sets the length of the stop, entry, and take profit lines.
Label color: One color for all labels (configured below) or the color of the labels in the color of the candle pattern.
Pin entry: Select the entry point for the pin bar: candle head, bar close, or 50% of the candle.
Coefficients for stop and take lines.
Use trend for price action: When enabled, will show price action signals only in the direction of the trend.
Display trend cloud: Enables or disables the display of the trend cloud.
Cloud calculation period: Sets the period for which the maximum and minimum values for the cloud are calculated. The longer the period, the smoother the cloud will be.
Cloud colors: Sets the colors for uptrends and downtrends, as well as the transparency of the cloud.
The logic of the indicator:
Pin Bar is a candle with a long upper or lower shadow and a short body.
Logic: If the length of one shadow is twice the body and the opposite shadow of the candle, it is considered a Pin Bar.
An Inside Bar is a candle that is completely engulfed by the previous candle.
Logic: If the high and low of the current candle are inside the previous candle, it is an Inside Bar.
An Outside Bar or Engulfing is a candle that completely engulfs the previous candle.
Logic: If the high and low of the current candle are outside the previous candle and close outside the previous candle, it is an Outside Bar.
A PPR Bar is a candle that closes above or below the previous candle.
Logic: If the current candle closes above the high of the previous candle or below its low, it is a PPR Bar.
Stop Loss Levels: Calculated based on the specified ratios. If set to 1.0, it shows the correct stop for the pattern by pushing away from the entry point.
Take Profit Levels: Calculated based on the specified ratios.
Create a Label: The label is created at the stop loss level and contains information about the potential leverage and loss.
The formula for calculating the $ value is:
=(Total Capital x (Maximum Loss Percentage on Position/100)) / (Difference between Entry Level and Stop Loss Level × Ratio that sets the stop loss level relative to the length of the candlestick shadow × Fixed Leverage Value) .
Labels contain the following information:
The percentage of price change from the recommended entry point to the stop loss level.
Required Leverage (X: ): The amount of leverage required to achieve the specified loss percentage. (Or a fixed value if selected).
Required Capital ($: ): The amount of capital required to open a position with the specified leverage and loss percentage (only displayed when using fixed leverage).
The trend cloud identifies the maximum and minimum price values for the specified period.
The cloud value is set depending on whether the current price is equal to the high or low values.
If the current closing price is equal to the high value, the cloud is set at the low value, and vice versa.

Облако тренда отображается на графике и помогает трейдерам определить, находится ли рынок в восходящем или нисходящем тренде.
Оповещение:
Дает возможность установить оповещение которое будет срабатывать при формировании паттерна.
Пример применения:
Предположим, трейдер использует индикатор для торговли на крипто рынке. Он настраивает параметры управления капиталом, устанавливая максимальный убыток по позиции в 5% и используя фиксированное плечо 1:100. Индикатор автоматически рассчитывает необходимый объем позиции для соблюдения этих параметров ($: на лейбле). Или отображает плечо (Х: на лейбле) для достижения необходимого риска.
Трейдер получает оповещение о формировании Pin Bar. Индикатор отображает уровни входа, выхода и стоп-лосс, основанные на этом паттерне. Трейдер открывает позицию на рекомендуемую сумму в направлении, указанном индикатором, и устанавливает стоп-лосс и тейк-профит на рекомендованных уровнях.
Общие настройки:
Процент убытка по позиции: Устанавливает максимальный процент убытка, который вы готовы понести по одной позиции.
Использовать фиксированное плечо: Включает или отключает использование фиксированного плеча.
Уровень фиксированного плеча: Задает уровень фиксированного плеча.
Общий капитал: Указывает общий капитал, который вы используете для торговли. (Необходим для расчета при использовании фиксированного плеча)

Показывать линии: Позволяет включить или отключить отображение лейблов и линий.
Длинна линий: Настройка длинны линий стопа, линии входа и тейк профита.
Цвет лейбла: Один цвет для всех лейблов (настраивается ниже) или цвет лейблов в цвет паттерна свечи.
Вход в пин: Выбор точки входа для пин бара: голова свечи, точка закрытия бара или 50% свечи.
Коэффиценты для стоп и тейк линий.
Использовать тренд для прайс экшна: При включении будет показывать прайс экшн сигналы только в направлении тренда.
Отображение облака тренда: Включает или отключает отображение облака тренда.
Период расчета облака: Устанавливает период, за который рассчитываются максимальные и минимальные значения для облака. Чем больше период, тем более сглаженным будет облако.
Цвета облака: Задает цвета для восходящего и нисходящего трендов, а также прозрачность облака.
Логика работы индикатора:
Pin Bar — это свеча с длинной верхней или нижней тенью и коротким телом.
Логика: Если длина одной тени вдвое больше тела и противоположной тени свечи, считается, что это Pin Bar.
Inside Bar — это свеча, полностью поглощенная предыдущей свечой.
Логика: Если максимум и минимум текущей свечи находятся внутри предыдущей свечи, это Inside Bar.
Outside Bar или Поглощение — это свеча, которая полностью поглощает предыдущую свечу.
Логика: Если максимум и минимум текущей свечи выходят за пределы предыдущей свечи и закрывается за пределами предыдущей свечи, это Outside Bar.
PPR Bar — это свеча, которая закрывается выше или ниже предыдущей свечи.
Логика: Если текущая свеча закрывается выше максимума предыдущей свечи или ниже ее минимума, это PPR Bar.
Уровни стоп-лосс: Рассчитываются на основе заданных коэффициентов. При значении 1.0 показывает правильный стоп для паттерна отталкиваясь от точки входа.
Уровки тейк-профита: Рассчитываются на основе заданных коэффициентов.
Создание метки: Метка создается на уровне стоп-лосс и содержит информацию о потенциальном плече и убытке.
Формула для вычисления значения $:
=(Общий капитал x (Максимальный процент убытка по позиции/100)) / (Разница между уровнем входа и уровнем стоп-лосс × Коэффициент, задающий уровень стоп-лосс относительно длины тени свечи × Значение фиксированного плеча).
Метки содержат следующую информацию:
Процент изменения цены от рекомендованной точки входа до уровня стоп-лосс.
Необходимое плечо (Х: ): Уровень плеча, необходимый для достижения заданного процента убытка. (Или фиксированное значение если оно выбрано).
Необходимый капитал ($: ): Сумма капитала, необходимая для открытия позиции с заданным плечом и процентом убытка (отображается только при использовании фиксированного плеча).
Облако тренда определяет максимальные и минимальные значения цены за указанный период.
Значение облака устанавливается в зависимости от того, совпадает ли текущая цена с максимальными или минимальными значениями.
Если текущая цена закрытия равна максимальному значению, облако устанавливается на уровне минимального значения, и наоборот.
Prev Day High EMA Crossover with 7-Day SMA Trailing StopPrev Day High EMA Crossover with 7-Day SMA Trailing Stop
Overview
This indicator is designed for traders who seek high-probability breakout trades using a combination of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), the previous day's high, and a 7-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) trailing stop. It helps identify bullish and bearish crossover signals while ensuring confirmation with price action above or below key levels.
How It Works
1. Entry Signals:
✅ Bullish Entry:
The 9 EMA crosses above the 15 EMA (bullish momentum).
The price is above the previous day’s high (confirming a breakout).
The candle closes above the open (bullish confirmation).
✅ Bearish Entry:
The 9 EMA crosses below the 15 EMA (bearish momentum).
The price is below the previous day’s high (confirming a failure to break higher).
The candle closes below the open (bearish confirmation).
2. Exit Strategy (Trailing Stop):
📌 Long Exit: If in a long trade, exit when the price closes below the 7-day SMA.
📌 Short Exit: If in a short trade, exit when the price closes above the 7-day SMA.

--- 💡 MOMENTUM THEORY CONCEPT ---
The best trade setups are found at swing points for 3 reasons:
They are the highest probability point the market will continue pushing.
They provide the best Stop Loss protection.
They offer the greatest Risk-to-Reward.
The goal of trading is to identify when these swing points occur to take the best trade setups.
Every swing point consists of a push towards a peak, a peak formation, and a push away from a peak. There is no way to know how long a push towards or away from a peak will last, but the peak formation can be identified by 2 elements:
A fakeout of a previous peak level
A flip of its last breakout level
We can track the movement of the market by looking at which peak level is triggered relative to its breakout level. How price behaves at the previous peak levels shows where momentum is headed. It continues to build towards a new peak until it fakes out the previous peak level and flips its breakout level, creating a swing point.
Swing points on the higher timeframes show up as multiple swing points on the lower timeframes, but they often won't be moving in sync. When 2 timeframe swing points get in alignment, the market will move smoothly together. You find the lower timeframe swing point the exact same way you find the higher timeframe one.
The market is constantly moving from one swing point to the next in a repeatable cycle. By using higher timeframe breakout levels and peak levels triggered, we can track where we are in this cycle to anticipate its future movement. This is the Momentum Cycle and it repeats itself over and over.
By using the exact same concept, we can identify mechanical alignment patterns on the lower timeframes to create setups that work in every phase of the market cycle. Identify your own patterns or use the suggested ones below. Watch the Live Trading Examples to see how these patterns are used.

If the best trade setups are found at swing points, then that must mean that every trading strategy that's worth learning must have some type of method to identify that specific move. Since Momentum Theory specializes in identifying the swing point, it can easily fit into most trading strategies by removing discretion and inserting a mechanical process to filter your existing strategy's setups. By using only non-negotiable levels such as Previous Day High / Low, you can convert most discretionary patterns into mechanical ones to hopefully help increase your consistency. My hope is that you can build your own library of mechanical setups that are specific to your strategy that go beyond the ones that I've provided.
--- 📝 HOW TO USE ---
⚠ Click on "Indicators > Invite-Only > Momentum Theory" to add it to your charts.
1) Determine directional bias on the higher timeframe chart.
2) Identify the cycle and setup pattern on the middle timeframe chart and wait for the momentum timeframe to be triggered.
3) Execute entries when the lower timeframes are aligned. Market is fractal and you can pick whatever timeframe you want for entry. Trade as simple or complex as you want.
⚠️ Trigger bars are an indication of breakout bias alignment at the lowest timeframes. They are NOT signals to be taken blindly without further analysis.

Xmoon – 3 Push Divergence – V1Introducing the Xmoon – 3 Push Divergence RSI Indicator – Premium – V2
The Xmoon – 3 Push Divergence RSI Indicator is designed based on a logical and precise strategy to help you identify suitable entry and exit points by combining divergences and market reversal patterns. With this tool, you can effectively spot trading opportunities in all market conditions, including uptrends, downtrends, and even sideways markets.
Divergence: A Powerful Signal for Market Reversal
Divergence is one of the most important signals of market reversal, widely used by professional traders. This indicator accurately identifies 3 Push Divergence patterns for you and highlights these patterns by plotting lines between their pivots. Moreover, as soon as the pattern is detected, the indicator draws lines for stepwise entries, stepwise exits, and capital management.
Stepwise Entry: Flexibility in Trade Management
When a 3 Push Divergence pattern forms, there is a high likelihood that the market will react to it. However, since the exact reversal point cannot be predicted, stepwise entry allows you to better align with market fluctuations and adapt flexibly to market changes.
In each step, you can increase your entry capital incrementally by one unit, enabling you to manage risk and capital more effectively.
Exit Management: Choosing Between Risk-Free and Target
After every entry, the indicator plots two lines for you:
1. Target Line: When you see the market moving in line with your analysis and want to take advantage of the profits.
2. Risk-Free Line: If you find the market conditions unfavorable, you can exit your position at break-even (considering spread, commissions, etc.).
Why Use This Indicator?
• Multiple Signal Detection: Due to price movements and the frequent occurrence of 3 Push Divergence patterns in the market, you can benefit from the multiple signals generated by this indicator across various timeframes.
• Professional Capital Management: This tool allows you to manage the risk and profit of your trades in the best possible way with stepwise entries and multiple exit settings.
• Effective in All Market Conditions: You can take advantage of trading opportunities in all market conditions, whether trending or sideways.
• Alignment with Real Market Momentum: You can utilize optimized distances between entry and exit levels designed based on real market momentum.
How to Use This Indicator?
1. Detecting the 3 Push Divergence Pattern: When the indicator detects a 3 Push Divergence pattern, it plots entry levels for each step, allowing you to start and set your trade with the specified capital.
2. Managing Stepwise Trades: Upon detecting the pattern, you can open your first trade at Step 1. If the market does not move in line with your initial analysis and reaches the entry levels for subsequent steps, you can increase your position size accordingly.
3. Exit Management: At each entry step, you can decide based on market conditions whether to focus on the target level or exit the trade at the risk-free level. (To display the risk-free and target lines, simply go to the indicator settings window and enable the relevant options.)
Conclusion
The Xmoon – 3 Push Divergence RSI indicator is a powerful tool for identifying and capitalizing on market reversal opportunities. By combining stepwise entry, professional exit management, and the robust logic of divergence, you can make better decisions and optimize the risk of your trades.

---
🔶 Key Features
1. Customizable Entry Signal Source
- Traders can select between CCI (Commodity Channel Index) and Momentum as the primary entry signal generator, depending on their preferred strategy.
- Additional confirmation through detection of regular bullish or bearish divergences within overbought and oversold zones of the RSI enhances signal reliability. This ensures the trader has an added layer of confidence in their decision-making.
2. Supply and Demand Area Tracking
- The script scans historical price action to detect critical supply and demand zones , areas where significant buying or selling interest has previously occurred.
- These zones are plotted on the chart to help traders anticipate reversals or breakouts, making it easier to identify high-probability entry and exit points.
3. Mean Reversion Bands
- EMA-based mean reversion bands provide clear visual guidance for traders employing mean-reversion strategies.
- The bands are calculated with adjustable multipliers, allowing traders to customize their sensitivity and identify optimal buy and sell zones within ranging markets.
4. ATR-Based Stop Loss and Take Profit Levels
- Dynamic risk management is achieved by calculating stop-loss levels and up to four take-profit targets using Average True Range (ATR) multipliers.
- This ensures that stop-loss and take-profit levels adjust automatically to market volatility, providing consistent risk-reward ratios tailored to prevailing conditions.
5. Higher Time Frame Confirmation
- The integration of a higher time frame EMA (Exponential Moving Average) filter ensures that trades are executed in alignment with broader market trends, increasing the probability of success.
- This feature is especially useful for traders who prioritize trend-following strategies and seek confirmation from larger time frames.
6. Status Tracking
- A dynamic status system displays the current state of the trade (e.g., "Waiting for Confirmation," "Enter Buy," or "Enter Sell") directly on the chart.
- The script also monitors and logs whether the stop loss or individual take-profit targets have been achieved, providing real-time updates for active trades.

🔹 Usage
How It Works
- Buy Signals : A buy signal is generated when the following conditions are met:
1. The chosen entry signal (CCI/Momentum) crosses upward, indicating bullish momentum.
2. RSI is in the oversold range or exhibits bullish divergence, signaling potential upward reversal.
3. Price is positioned above the higher time frame EMA and approaches identified demand zones, reinforcing a high-probability entry.
- Sell Signals: A sell signal is triggered when:
1. The chosen entry signal crosses downward, indicating bearish momentum.
2. RSI is in the overbought range or exhibits bearish divergence, suggesting potential downward reversal.
3. Price is positioned below the higher time frame EMA and approaches supply zones, aligning with bearish market sentiment.
- Stop Loss and Take Profit:
- Stop-loss levels are calculated dynamically based on ATR values, ensuring they adapt to market volatility.
- Multiple take-profit levels are provided to enable traders to scale out of positions incrementally, optimizing profit-taking strategies.
---
🔹 Practical Examples
- Mean Reversion Strategy: In ranging markets, traders can use the lower band as a buy zone and the upper band as a sell zone. For instance, when the price approaches the lower mean reversion band near a demand area, a buy signal is generated if other criteria are met.
- Trend Following Strategy: By aligning entries with the direction of the higher time frame EMA, traders can participate in long-term trends with greater confidence. For example, entering a buy trade when price crosses above the 50 EMA on a 1-hour chart ensures alignment with the dominant trend.
---
🔹 Visual Options
- Users can fully customize the color schemes, line styles, and visibility of key features, including:
- Mean reversion bands.
- Supply and demand zones.
- Take-profit and stop-loss levels.
- Entry points and trade progression are visually marked, ensuring traders can track real-time performance effortlessly.

JJ Highlight Time Ranges with First 5 Minutes and LabelsTo effectively use this Pine Script as a day trader , here’s how the various elements can help you manage trades, track time sessions, and monitor price movements:
Key Components for a Day Trader:
1. First 5-Minute Highlight:
- Purpose: Day traders often rely on the first 5 minutes of the trading session to gauge market sentiment, watch for opening price gaps, or plan entries. This script draws a horizontal line at the high or low of the first 5 minutes, which can act as a key level for the rest of the day.
- How to Use: If the price breaks above or below the first 5-minute line, it can signal momentum. You might enter a long position if the price breaks above the first 5-minute high or a short if it breaks below the first 5-minute low.
2. Session Time Highlights:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM): The market often shows its strongest price action during the first hour of trading. This session is highlighted in yellow. You can use this highlight to focus on the most volatile period, as this is when large institutional moves tend to occur.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM): The blue highlight helps you track the mid-afternoon session, where liquidity may decrease, and price action can sometimes be choppier. Day traders should be more cautious during this period.
- How to Use: By highlighting these key times, you can:
- Focus on key breakouts during the morning session.
- Be more conservative in your trades during the afternoon, as market volatility may drop.
3. Dynamic Labels:
- Top/Bottom Positioning: The script places labels dynamically based on the selected position (Top or Bottom). This allows you to quickly glance at the session's start and identify where you are in terms of time.
- How to Use: Use these labels to remind yourself when major time segments (morning or afternoon) begin. You can adjust your trading strategy depending on the session, e.g., being more aggressive in the morning and more cautious in the afternoon.
Trading Strategy Suggestions:
1. Momentum Trades:
- After the first 5 minutes, use the high/low of that period to set up breakout trades.
- Long Entry: If the price breaks the high of the first 5 minutes (especially if there's a strong trend).
- Short Entry: If the price breaks the low of the first 5 minutes, signaling a potential downtrend.
2. Session-Based Strategy:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM):
- Look for strong breakout patterns such as support/resistance levels, moving average crossovers, or candlestick patterns (like engulfing candles or pin bars).
- This is a high liquidity period, making it ideal for executing quick trades.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM):
- The market tends to consolidate or show less volatility. Scalping and mean-reversion strategies work better here.
- Avoid chasing big moves unless you see a clear breakout in either direction.
3. Support and Resistance:
- The first 5-minute high/low often acts as a key support or resistance level for the rest of the day. If the price holds above or below this level, it’s an indication of trend continuation.
4. Breakout Confirmation:
- Look for breakouts from the highlighted session time ranges (e.g., 9:15 AM–10:30 AM or 12:30 PM–2:55 PM).
- If a breakout happens during a key time window, combine that with other technical indicators like volume spikes , RSI , or MACD for confirmation.
---
Example Day Trader Usage:
1. First 5 Minutes Strategy: After the market opens at 9:15 AM, watch the price action for the first 5 minutes. The high and low of these 5 minutes are critical levels. If the price breaks above the high of the first 5 minutes, it might indicate a strong bullish trend for the day. Conversely, breaking below the low may suggest bearish movement.
2. Morning Session: After the first 5 minutes, focus on the **9:15 AM–10:30 AM** window. During this time, look for breakout setups at key support/resistance levels, especially when paired with high volume or momentum indicators. This is when many institutions make large trades, so price action tends to be more volatile and predictable.
3. Afternoon Session: From 12:30 PM–2:55 PM, the market might experience lower volatility, making it ideal for scalping or range-bound strategies. You could look for reversals or fading strategies if the market becomes too quiet.
Conclusion:
As a day trader, you can use this script to:
- Track and react to key price levels during the first 5 minutes.
- Focus on high volatility in the morning session (9:15–10:30 AM) and **be cautious** during the afternoon.
- Use session-based timing to adjust your strategies based on the time of day.

Volatility-Driven Trend Reversal (VTR) IndicatorThe Volatility-Driven Trend Reversal (VTR) Indicator is a sophisticated Pine Script trading tool designed to provide clear, non-repainting buy and sell signals based on a combination of trend-following, volatility-based, and momentum analysis. It utilizes Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for trend direction, Average True Range (ATR) for dynamic volatility bands, and Relative Strength Index (RSI) for momentum filtering. The VTR Indicator is built to operate effectively on all market pairs, including cryptocurrency, stocks, and forex, providing traders with reliable, actionable signals for both trend continuation and reversal strategies.
This indicator is tailored to reduce noise and avoid over-signaling by filtering out minor fluctuations. With its unique volatility-based ATR bands, the VTR Indicator excels in volatile environments, such as cryptocurrency markets, and helps traders capture significant price movements while managing risk effectively.
Key Features
Trend Confirmation (EMA):
The indicator relies on the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to define the market's primary trend direction. A rising EMA suggests an uptrend, while a falling EMA indicates a downtrend.
Volatility-Based ATR Bands:
ATR (Average True Range) is used to calculate dynamic support and resistance levels based on market volatility. The upper and lower bands represent potential overbought and oversold zones, ensuring that price action aligns with the overall market volatility.
These bands are adaptive to price fluctuations, making them a powerful tool for detecting volatility shifts in real-time.
Momentum Filter (RSI):
The 14-period Relative Strength Index (RSI) is applied to ensure that buy signals only appear when the market is showing upward momentum (RSI above 50) and sell signals when there is downward momentum (RSI below 50).
This filtering mechanism helps avoid false signals during periods of consolidation or ranging markets, improving the signal's overall accuracy.
Non-Repainting Logic:
The buy and sell signals generated by the VTR Indicator are persistent and will not repaint after the bar closes. Once a signal is confirmed, it stays active until an opposite condition triggers a new signal.
This is achieved using a persistent signalState variable, which tracks the current market trend and prevents premature or false signals.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Levels:
The indicator automatically generates Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels based on the ATR multiplier to assist with trade risk management.
These levels are dynamically calculated as a multiple of the ATR value, helping traders manage potential volatility and exit at strategic points.
Multi-Market Compatibility:
The VTR Indicator is suitable for all market pairs (cryptocurrencies, stocks, forex, indices), allowing traders to apply it across various timeframes and asset classes without losing performance reliability.
Alert System:
Built-in alert conditions notify traders of Buy and Sell signals, ensuring they don’t miss any potential trading opportunities.
Signal Logic & Interpretation
Buy Signal (Long Entry):
Condition 1: The price closes above the upper ATR band, suggesting potential upward price movement.
Condition 2: The RSI is above 50, confirming bullish momentum.
Buy Signal Confirmation: The buy signal is generated when both conditions are met and there is no prior active buy signal.
Sell Signal (Short Entry):
Condition 1: The price closes below the lower ATR band, suggesting potential downward price movement.
Condition 2: The RSI is below 50, confirming bearish momentum.
Sell Signal Confirmation: The sell signal is generated when both conditions are met and there is no prior active sell signal.
No Repainting:
Once a buy or sell signal is confirmed, it will not be altered, erased, or replaced by future bars. This ensures that the trader can trust the signal once it appears, knowing it will not change as the market moves.
Exit Points:
Take Profit: When a long position is active, the TP level is calculated as a multiple of the ATR above the entry price.
Stop Loss: When a long position is active, the SL level is calculated as a multiple of the ATR below the entry price.
For short positions, these levels are reversed: TP is below the entry price, and SL is above the entry price.
Trading Strategy:
Entry:
Enter a long position when the buy signal is generated, confirmed by the price crossing the upper ATR band and the RSI being above 50.
Enter a short position when the sell signal is generated, confirmed by the price crossing the lower ATR band and the RSI being below 50.
Exit:
For long positions, exit when the price reaches the Take Profit (TP) level or hits the Stop Loss (SL) level.
For short positions, exit when the price reaches the Take Profit (TP) level or hits the Stop Loss (SL) level.
Risk Management:
Use the ATR-based Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels to manage risk dynamically.
Always ensure your stop-loss levels are within your risk tolerance for each trade.
Unique Aspects:
Adaptability: The VTR Indicator adapts to changing market conditions, making it suitable for high volatility environments like cryptocurrency trading.
Non-Repainting: Once a signal is generated, it remains valid and doesn't change with new bars, ensuring a reliable trading strategy.
Built-in Risk Management: Automatic dynamic SL and TP levels allow for strategic trade exits, enhancing trade management.
Example Scenario
Scenario 1 (Bullish Trend):
The price is above the upper ATR band, and the RSI is above 50, signaling a strong bullish trend. The buy signal is triggered, and the price continues to rise, hitting the take-profit target based on ATR levels.
Exit: The price reaches the TP level or hits the SL level, and the position is closed.
Scenario 2 (Bearish Trend):
The price is below the lower ATR band, and the RSI is below 50, signaling a strong bearish trend. A sell signal is generated, and the price continues to decline, hitting the take-profit target.
Exit: The price reaches the TP level or hits the SL level, and the short position is closed.

By calculating average structural break durations, the indicator alerts users to conditions that may require caution, such as ranging markets.
Predictive AI Analysis for Entry Optimization:
An AI-powered module evaluates volume thresholds and ATR (Average True Range) to provide users with an understanding of the current market risk. The ATR is calculated based on a user-defined timeframe, giving flexibility in how users approach different market conditions. This feature also determines the risk per trade and calculates the optimal position size, ensuring that users can tailor their risk according to their trading plan.
Real-Time Alerts and Visual Indicators:
The indicator includes alerts for key conditions:
Green Condition: Signals optimal market entry conditions.
Yellow Condition: Indicates a cautionary ranging market, alerting traders to the potential lack of strong trends.
Red Condition: Identifies unsuitable market conditions for entry due to insufficient volume or unfavorable metrics.
Color-coded background visuals provide instant clarity regarding market conditions—red, yellow, or green—allowing traders to make quick, informed decisions.
Dynamic Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The user can select a custom entry timeframe, while the script internally calculates and adapts to a higher timeframe for deep trend analysis. This approach gives traders a complete view of both the short-term (entry) and higher timeframe (overall trend) dynamics.
How to Use:
Identify Trend Conditions: The indicator visually plots key market structures (green and red structural lines) to help users determine where the market may find support or resistance. The background changes color to indicate trending (green), ranging (yellow), or high-risk (red) conditions.
Make Informed Entries: Use the real-time alerts and label information to get insights into current market conditions. If the background is green and metrics align, the indicator suggests an optimal time for entry.
Position Sizing and Risk Management: The calculated risk per trade and position size (displayed on-screen) assist users in managing risk effectively. Users can utilize this data to adjust trade sizes and maximize profit potential while adhering to their risk tolerance.
What Sets Quantum Edge V2 Apart:
Unlike other indicators that solely provide trend direction, Quantum Edge V2 offers an integrated understanding of market structure, volume analysis, and predictive AI models.
The ranging market detection (yellow zones) is particularly valuable for traders looking to avoid low-probability trades during periods of market indecision.
The use of ATR-based risk calculation ensures the position sizing is always aligned with market volatility, adding an extra layer of protection for capital.
Important Notes:
Educational Value: This script does not just tell you when to enter or exit. It provides deep insights into market dynamics, giving traders a tool to learn and improve their market understanding. The ability to view market structure across different timeframes and visualize areas of caution is crucial for long-term growth as a trader.
No Guaranteed Results: This indicator is a powerful tool for analysis, but like all trading strategies, it does not guarantee profits. Always practice proper risk management.
Why It's Worth Using: This indicator combines multi-timeframe structure analysis, volume metrics, and predictive AI modeling—an approach typically reserved for professional trading systems. Traders looking to incorporate a systematic approach to risk, ranging markets, and trend detection will find Quantum Edge V2 invaluable.

This feature empowers traders to align trades with their individual risk management strategies and objectives, while maintaining consistency and discipline in execution.
4. Streamlined Visualization of Entry and Risk Levels: Upon a crossover, the indicator places discrete markers at the calculated SL and TP levels, avoiding clutter while providing traders with an immediate view of potential risk and reward. Small dots represent SL and TP levels, offering a clean, clear display of critical decision points.
How to Use:
1. Entry Signals from MA Crossovers: This indicator generates entry signals when the selected moving averages cross, with green markers indicating long entries and red markers indicating short entries. The customizable MA selection enables traders to optimize crossover signals for various timeframes and asset classes.
2. Integrated Risk Markers: SL and TP levels are shown as small dots at the crossover point, based on the ATR multiplier and risk/reward ratio settings. These markers allow traders to quickly visualize the defined risk and potential reward for each entry.
This indicator offers a comprehensive solution for trend-following strategies by combining entry signals with adaptive risk management. Suitable for multiple timeframes, it allows for backtesting and adjustments to ATR and risk/reward parameters for improved alignment with individual trading goals. As with all strategies, thorough testing is recommended to ensure compatibility with your trading approach.

Example Trading Strategy Using This Indicator
To effectively use this indicator as part of your trading strategy, follow these detailed steps:
Setup:
Timeframe : Select a timeframe that aligns with your trading style (e.g., 15-minute for intraday, 1-hour for swing trading, or daily for longer-term positions).
Indicator Settings : Customize the Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD parameters to suit your trading approach. Adjust overbought/oversold levels to match your risk tolerance.
Strategy:
1. Strong Buy Entry Criteria :
Wait for a strong buy signal (green label) when the RSI is at or below the oversold level (e.g., ≤ 35), indicating a deeply oversold market. Confirm that the MACD shows a decreasing trend (bearish momentum weakening) to validate a potential reversal. Ensure the current candle is green (close > open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : On a 1-hour chart, if the RSI drops below 35, MACD shows three consecutive bars of decreasing negative momentum, and a green candle forms, enter a buy position. This setup signals a robust entry with strong momentum backing it.
2. Weak Buy Entry Criteria :
Monitor for weak buy signals (blue label) when RSI is above the oversold level but still below the neutral (e.g., between 36 and 50). This indicates a market recovering from an oversold state but not fully reversing yet. These signals can be used for early entries with additional confirmations, such as support levels or higher timeframe trends.
Example Use : On the same 1-hour chart, if RSI is at 45, the MACD shows momentum stabilizing (not necessarily negative), and a green candle appears, consider a partial or cautious entry. Use this as an early warning for a potential bullish move, especially when higher timeframe indicators align.
3. Strong Sell Entry Criteria :
Look for a strong sell signal (red label) when RSI is at or above the overbought level (e.g., ≥ 65), signaling a strong overbought condition. The MACD should show three consecutive bars of increasing positive momentum to indicate that the bullish trend is weakening. Ensure the current candle is red (close < open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : If RSI reaches 70, MACD shows increasing momentum that starts to level off, and a red candle forms on a 1-hour chart, initiate a short position with a stop loss set above recent resistance. This is a high-confidence signal for potential price reversal or pullback.
4. Weak Sell Entry Criteria :
Use weak sell signals (orange label) when RSI is between the neutral and overbought levels (e.g., between 50 and 64). These can indicate potential short opportunities that might not yet be fully mature but are worth monitoring. Look for other confirmations like resistance levels or trendline touches to strengthen the signal.
Example Use : If RSI reads 60 on a 1-hour chart, and the MACD shows slight positive momentum with signs of slowing down, place a cautious sell position or scale out of existing long positions. This setup allows you to prepare for a possible downtrend.
Trade Management:
Stop Loss : For buy trades, place stop losses below recent swing lows. For sell trades, set stops above recent swing highs to manage risk effectively.
Take Profit : Target nearby resistance or support levels, apply risk-to-reward ratios (e.g., 1:2), or use trailing stops to lock in profits as price moves in your favor.
Confirmation : Align these signals with broader trends on higher timeframes. For example, if you receive a weak buy signal on a 15-minute chart, check the 1-hour or daily chart to ensure the overall trend is not bearish.
Real-World Example: Imagine trading on a 15-minute chart :
For a buy:
A strong buy signal (green) appears when the RSI dips to 32, MACD shows declining bearish momentum, and a green candle forms. Enter a buy position with a stop loss below the most recent support level.
Alternatively, a weak buy signal (blue) appears when RSI is at 47. Use this as a signal to start monitoring the market closely or enter a smaller position if other indicators (like support and volume analysis) align.
For a sell:
A strong sell signal (red) with RSI at 72 and a red candle signals to short with conviction. Place your stop loss just above the last peak.
A weak sell signal (orange) with RSI at 62 might prompt caution but can still be acted on if confirmed by declining volume or touching a resistance level.
These strategies show how to blend both strong and weak signals into your trading for more nuanced decision-making.
Technical Analysis of the Code
1. Stochastic RSI Calculation:
The script calculates the Stochastic RSI (stochRsiK) using the RSI as input and smooths it with a moving average (stochRsiD).
Code Explanation : ta.stoch(rsi, rsi, rsi, stochLength) computes the Stochastic RSI, and ta.sma(stochRsiK, stochSmoothing) applies smoothing.
2. RSI Calculation :
The RSI is computed over a user-defined period and checks for overbought or oversold conditions.
Code Explanation : rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsiLength) calculates RSI values.
3. MACD Trend Filter :
MACD is calculated with fast, slow, and signal lengths, identifying trends via three consecutive bars moving in the same direction.
Code Explanation : = ta.macd(close, macdLengthFast, macdLengthSlow, macdSignalLength) sets MACD values. Conditions like macdLine < macdLine confirm trends.
4. Buy and Sell Conditions :
The script checks Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD values to set buy/sell flags. Candle color filters further confirm valid entries.
Code Explanation : buyConditionMet and sellConditionMet logically check all conditions and toggles (enableStochCondition, enableRSICondition, etc.).
5. Signal Flags and Confirmation :
Flags track when conditions are met and ensure signals only appear on appropriate candle colors.
Code Explanation : Conditional blocks (if statements) update buyFlag and sellFlag.
6. Labels and Alerts :
The indicator plots "BUY" or "SELL" labels with the RSI value when signals trigger and sets alerts through alertcondition().
Code Explanation : label.new() displays the signal, color-coded for strength based on RSI.
NOTE : All strategies can be enabled or disabled in the settings, allowing traders to customize the indicator to their preferences and trading styles.
Candle Range Theory | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Candle Range Theory Indicator! This powerful tool offers a strategy built around the Candle Range Theory, which analyzes market movements through the relative size and structure of price candles. For more information about the process, check the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section.
Features of the new Candle Range Theory Indicator :
Implementation of the Candle Range Theory
FVG & Order Block Entry Methods
2 Different TP / SL Methods
Customizable Execution Settings
Customizable Backtesting Dashboard
Alerts for Buy, Sell, TP & SL Signals
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The Candle Range Theory (CRT) indicator operates by identifying significant price movements through the relative size and structure of candlesticks. A key part of the strategy is determining large candles based on their range compared to the Average True Range (ATR) in a higher timeframe. Once identified, a breakout of either the high wick or the low wick of the large candle is required. This breakout is considered a liquidity grab. After that, the indicator waits for confirmation through Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) or Order Blocks (OBs). The confirmation structure must be the opposite direction of the breakout, for example if the high wick is broken, a bearish FVG is required for the short entry. After a confirmation signal is received, the indicator will trigger entry points based on your chosen entry method (FVG or OB), and exit points will be calculated using either a dynamic ATR-based TP/SL method or fixed percentages. Alerts for Buy, Sell, Take-Proft, and Stop-Loss are available.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
This indicator stands out because it combines two highly effective entry methods: Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and Order Blocks (OBs). You can choose between these strategies depending on market conditions. Additionally, the dynamic TP/SL system uses the ticker's volatility to automatically calculate stop-loss and take-profit targets. The backtesting dashboard provides metrics about the performance of the indicator. You can use it to tune the settings for best use in the current tiker. The Candle Range Theory approach offers more flexibility compared to traditional indicators, allowing for better customization and control based on your risk tolerance.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Higher Timeframe: Customize the higher timeframe for analysis. Recommended combinations include M15 -> H4, H4 -> Daily, Daily -> Weekly, and Weekly -> Monthly.
HTF Candle Size: Define the size of the higher timeframe candles as Big, Normal, or Small to filter valid setups based on their range relative to ATR.
Entry Mode: Choose between FVGs and Order Blocks for your entry triggers.
Require Retracement: Enable this option if you want a retracement to the FVG or OB for entry confirmation.
Show HTF Candle Lines: Toggle to display the higher timeframe candle lines for better visual clarity.
2. Fair Value Gaps
FVG Sensitivity: You may select between Low, Normal, High or Extreme FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivities resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivities resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
3. Order Blocks
Swing Length: Swing length is used when finding order block formations. Smaller values will result in finding smaller order blocks.
4. TP / SL
TP / SL Method:
a) Dynamic: The TP / SL zones will be auto-determined by the algorithm based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the current ticker.
b) Fixed : You can adjust the exact TP / SL ratios from the settings below.
Dynamic Risk: The risk you're willing to take if "Dynamic" TP / SL Method is selected. Higher risk usually means a better winrate at the cost of losing more if the strategy fails. This setting is has a crucial effect on the performance of the indicator, as different tickers may have different volatility so the indicator may have increased performance when this setting is correctly adjusted.
Interest Rate Trading (Manually Added Rate Decisions) [TANHEF]Interest Rate Trading: How Interest Rates Can Guide Your Next Move.
How were interest rate decisions added?
All interest rate decision dates were manually retrieved from the 'Record of Policy Actions' and 'Minutes of Actions' on the Federal Reserve's website due to inconsistent dates from other sources. These were manually added as Pine Script currently only identifies rate changes, not pauses.
█ Simple Explanation:
This script is designed for analyzing and backtesting trading strategies based on U.S. interest rate decisions which occur during Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings, to make trading decisions. No trading strategy is perfect, and it's important to understand that expectations won't always play out. The script leverages historical interest rate changes, including increases, decreases, and pauses, across multiple economic time periods from 1971 to the present. The tool integrates two key data sources for interest rates—USINTR and FEDFUNDS—to support decision-making around rate-based trades. The focus is on identifying opportunities and tracking trades driven by interest rate movements.
█ Interest Rate Decision Sources:
As noted above, each decision date has been manually added from the 'Record of Policy Actions' and 'Minutes of Actions' documents on the Federal Reserve's website. This includes +50 years of more than 600 rate decisions.
█ Interest Rate Data Sources:
USINTR: Reflects broader U.S. interest rate trends, including Treasury yields and various benchmarks. This is the preferred option as it corresponds well to the rate decision dates.
FEDFUNDS: Tracks the Federal Funds Rate, which is a more specific rate targeted by the Federal Reserve. This does not change on the exact same days as the rate decisions that occur at FOMC meetings.
█ Trade Criteria:
A variety of trading conditions are predefined to suit different trading strategies. These conditions include:
Increase/Decrease: Standard rate increases or decreases.
Double/Triple Increase/Decrease: A series of consecutive changes.
Aggressive Increase/Decrease: Rate changes that exceed recent movements.
Pause: Identification of no changes (pauses) between rate decisions, including double or triple pauses.
Complex Patterns: Combinations of pauses, increases, or decreases, such as "Pause after Increase" or "Pause or Increase."
█ Trade Execution and Exit:
The script allows automated trade execution based on selected criteria:
Auto-Entry: Option to enter trades automatically at the first valid period.
Max Trade Duration: Optional exit of trades after a specified number of bars (candles).
Pause Days: Minimum duration (in days) to validate rate pauses as entry conditions. This is especially useful for earlier periods (prior to the 2000s), where rate decisions often seemed random compared to the consistency we see today.
█ Visualization:
Several visual elements enhance the backtesting experience:
Time Period Highlighting: Economic time periods are visually segmented on the chart, each with a unique color. These periods include historical phases such as "Stagflation (1971-1982)" and "Post-Pandemic Recovery (2021-Present)".
Trade and Holding Results: Displays the profit and loss of trades and holding results directly on the chart.
Interest Rate Plot: Plots the interest rate movements on the chart, allowing for real-time tracking of rate changes.
Trade Status: Highlights active long or short positions on the chart.
█ Statistics and Criteria Display:
Stats Table: Summarizes trade results, including wins, losses, and draw percentages for both long and short trades.
Criteria Table: Lists the selected entry and exit criteria for both long and short positions.
█ Economic Time Periods:
The script organizes interest rate decisions into well-defined economic periods, allowing traders to backtest strategies specific to historical contexts like:
(1971-1982) Stagflation
(1983-1990) Reaganomics and Deregulation
(1991-1994) Early 1990s (Recession and Recovery)
(1995-2001) Dot-Com Bubble
(2001-2006) Housing Boom
(2007-2009) Global Financial Crisis
(2009-2015) Great Recession Recovery
(2015-2019) Normalization Period
(2019-2021) COVID-19 Pandemic
(2021-Present) Post-Pandemic Recovery
█ User-Configurable Inputs:
Rate Source Selection: Choose between USINTR or FEDFUNDS as the primary interest rate source.
Trade Criteria Customization: Users can select the criteria for long and short trades, specifying when to enter or exit based on changes in the interest rate.
Time Period: Select the time period that you want to isolate testing a strategy with.
Auto-Entry and Pause Settings: Options to automatically enter trades and specify the number of days to confirm a rate pause.
Max Trade Duration: Limits how long trades can remain open, defined by the number of bars.
█ Trade Logic:
The script manages entries and exits for both long and short trades. It calculates the profit or loss percentage based on the entry and exit prices. The script tracks ongoing trades, dynamically updating the profit or loss as price changes.
█ Examples:
One of the most popular opinions is that when rate starts begin you should sell, then buy back in when rate cuts stop dropping. However, this can be easily proven to be a difficult task. Predicting the end of a rate cut is very difficult to do with the the exception that assumes rates will not fall below 0.25%.
2001-2009
Trade Result: +29.85%
Holding Result: -27.74%
1971-2024
Trade Result: +533%
Holding Result: +5901%
█ Backtest and Real-Time Use:
This backtester is useful for historical analysis and real-time trading. By setting up various entry and exit rules tied to interest rate movements, traders can test and refine strategies based on real historical data and rate decision trends.
This powerful tool allows traders to customize strategies, backtest them through different economic periods, and get visual feedback on their trading performance, helping to make more informed decisions based on interest rate dynamics. The main goal of this indicator is to challenge the belief that future events must mirror the 2001 and 2007 rate cuts. If everyone expects something to happen, it usually doesn’t.
