Scalping trading system based on 4 ema linesScalping Trading System Based on 4 EMA Lines
Overview:
This is a scalping trading strategy built on signals from 4 EMA moving averages: EMA(8), EMA(12), EMA(24) and EMA(72).
Conditions:
- Time frame: H1 (1 hour).
- Trading assets: Applicable to major currency pairs with high volatility
- Risk management: Use a maximum of 1-2% of capital for each transaction. The order holding time can be from a few hours to a few days, depending on the price fluctuation amplitude.
Trading rules:
Determine the main trend:
Uptrend: EMA(8), EMA(12) and EMA(24) are above EMA(72).
Downtrend: EMA(8), EMA(12) and EMA(24) are below EMA(72).
Trade in the direction of the main trend** (buy in an uptrend and sell in a downtrend).
Entry conditions:
- Only trade in a clearly trending market.
Uptrend:
- Wait for the price to correct to the EMA(24).
- Enter a buy order when the price closes above the EMA(24).
- Place a stop loss below the bottom of the EMA(24) candle that has just been swept.
Downtrend:
- Wait for the price to correct to the EMA(24).
- Enter a sell order when the price closes below the EMA(24).
- Place a stop loss above the top of the EMA(24) candle that has just been swept.
Take profit and order management:
- Take profit when the price moves 20 to 40 pips in the direction of the trade.
Use Trailing Stop to optimize profits instead of setting a fixed Take Profit.
Note:
- Do not trade within 30 minutes before and after the announcement of important economic news, as the price may fluctuate abnormally.
Additional filters:
To increase the success rate and reduce noise, this strategy uses additional conditions:
1. The price is calculated only when the candle closes (no repaint).
2. When sweeping through EMA(24), the price needs to close above EMA(24).
3. The closing price must be higher than 50% of the candle's length.
4. **The bottom of the candle sweeping through EMA(24) must be lower than the bottom of the previous candle (liquidity sweep).
---
Alert function:
When the EMA(24) sweep conditions are met, the system will trigger an alert if you have set it up.
- Entry point: The closing price of the candle sweeping through EMA(24).
- Stop Loss:
- Buy Order: Place at the bottom of the sweep candle.
- Sell Order: Place at the top of the sweep candle.
---
Note:
This strategy is designed to help traders identify profitable trading opportunities based on trends. However, no strategy is 100% guaranteed to be successful. Please test it thoroughly on a demo account before using it.

Adaptive Fractal Grid Scalping StrategyThis Pine Script v6 component implements an "Adaptive Fractal Grid Scalping Strategy" with an added volatility threshold feature.
Here's how it works:
Fractal Break Detection: Uses ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow to identify local highs and lows.
Volatility Clustering: Measures volatility using the Average True Range (ATR).
Adaptive Grid Levels: Dynamically adjusts grid levels based on ATR and user-defined multipliers.
Directional Bias Filter: Uses a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to determine trend direction.
Volatility Threshold: Introduces a new input to specify a minimum ATR value required to activate the strategy.
Trade Execution Logic: Places limit orders at grid levels based on trend direction and fractal levels, but only when ATR exceeds the volatility threshold.
Profit-Taking and Stop-Loss: Implements profit-taking at grid levels and a trailing stop-loss based on ATR.
How to Use
Inputs: Customize the ATR length, SMA length, grid multipliers, trailing stop multiplier, and volatility threshold through the input settings.
Visuals: The script plots fractal points and grid levels on the chart for easy visualization.
Trade Signals: The strategy automatically places buy/sell orders based on the detected fractals, trend direction, and volatility threshold.
Profit and Risk Management: The script includes logic for taking profits and setting stop-loss levels to manage trades effectively.
This strategy is designed to capitalize on micro-movements during high volatility and avoid overtrading during low-volatility trends. Adjust the input parameters to suit your trading style and market conditions.
Futures Engulfing Candle Size Strategy (Ticks, TP/SL)The Futures Candle Size Strategy is designed to identify and trade significant price movements in the futures market based on candle size. It is optimized for futures instruments like ES, NQ, or CL, where precise tick-level calculations are essential. The strategy includes a customizable take profit and stop loss in ticks and operates only within a specified time window (e.g., 7:00 AM to 9:15 AM CST).
Key Features:
Candle Size Threshold: Trades are triggered when the candle's high-to-low range exceeds the defined threshold in ticks.
Time Filter: Limits trades to the most active market hours, specifically between 7:00 AM and 9:15 AM CST.
Take Profit and Stop Loss: Customizable exit levels in ticks to manage risk and lock in profits.
Long and Short Trades: Automatically places buy or sell orders based on the candle's direction (bullish or bearish).
Alerts: Sends alerts whenever a trade is triggered, helping you stay informed in real-time.
How It Works:
The strategy calculates the size of each candle in ticks and compares it to the user-defined threshold.
If the candle size meets or exceeds the threshold within the specified time range, it triggers a long or short trade.
The trade automatically exits when the price hits the take profit or stop loss levels.
Dynamic S/R Levels: Edge FinderOverview
The Dynamic S/R Levels: Edge Finder indicator is designed to identify dynamic support and resistance levels based on historical price action. It uses a combination of price extremes (highs and lows) over user-defined lookback periods, weighted moving averages (WMAs), and touch-count analysis to provide actionable insights into key market levels.
This tool is ideal for traders who want to:
Identify dynamic support and resistance zones.
Understand the strength of these levels based on price touches.
Make informed decisions using clear, adaptive levels.
How It Works
Dynamic Levels Calculation:
The indicator calculates dynamic support levels using the lowest lows and dynamic resistance levels using the highest highs over user-defined lookback periods (e.g., 20, 40, 60 bars, etc.).
These levels are updated dynamically as new price data becomes available.
Touch Count Analysis:
The indicator counts how many times the price has touched or come close to each support/resistance level within the lookback period.
Levels with more touches are considered stronger and are highlighted accordingly.
Weighted Moving Averages (WMAs):
The indicator uses 50-period and 100-period WMAs to identify the closest support/resistance levels to the current trend.
Levels near these WMAs are given additional weight, as they are more likely to act as significant barriers.
Level Merging:
If two support or resistance levels are too close to each other (based on the minimum distance percentage), the weaker level (with fewer touches) is removed to avoid clutter.
Visualization:
Support levels are displayed as dashed red lines, and resistance levels are displayed as dashed blue lines.
Each level is labeled with its corresponding touch count, allowing traders to quickly assess its strength.
How to Interpret the Indicator
Strong Support/Resistance Levels:
Levels with higher touch counts (e.g., 5, 10, or more) are considered stronger and are more likely to hold in the future.
Use these levels to plan entries, exits, or stop-loss placements.
Proximity to WMAs:
Levels closest to the 50-period or 100-period WMA are more significant, especially in trending markets.
These levels often act as dynamic barriers where price reactions are more likely.
Breakouts and Rejections:
If the price breaks through a strong resistance level, it may indicate a potential bullish trend.
If the price rejects a strong support level, it may indicate a potential bearish trend.
Always confirm breakouts or rejections with additional analysis (e.g., volume, candlestick patterns).
Level Merging:
Merged levels indicate areas of high confluence, where multiple support/resistance zones overlap.
These areas are particularly important for decision-making, as they represent stronger market reactions.
Key Features
Customizable Lookback Periods: Adjust the lookback periods for each dynamic level to suit your trading style.
Touch Count Labels: Quickly identify the strength of each level based on the number of price touches.
Adaptive Levels: The indicator dynamically updates levels based on recent price action.
Clean Visualization: Levels are automatically merged to avoid clutter and provide a clear view of the market structure.
Usage Tips
Trend Identification: Combine the indicator with trend-following tools (e.g., moving averages, trendlines) to confirm the overall market direction.
Risk Management: Use the identified levels to set stop-loss orders or take-profit targets.
Timeframe Flexibility: The indicator works on all timeframes, but it is particularly effective on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) for more reliable levels.
Example Scenarios
Bounce Trade:
If the price approaches a strong support level (high touch count) and shows signs of rejection (e.g., bullish candlestick patterns), consider a long position with a stop-loss below the support level.
Breakout Trade:
If the price breaks above a strong resistance level with high volume, consider a long position with a target at the next resistance level.
Range-Bound Market:
In a sideways market, use the support and resistance levels to identify range boundaries and trade bounces between them.

Follow Through Day (FTD) + Sweep [TrendX_]The Follow Through Day (FTD) + Sweep indicator is a Trend-following tool mixing William O'Neil's original FTD concept and Liquidity concept. This indicator helps you identify potential subsequent bullish trends with greater precision by combining volume analysis, price action, and liquidity concepts.
💎 FEATURES
Follow Through Day Candle (FTD Candle)
The FTD, pioneered by William O'Neil, serves as a reliable signal for identifying the beginning of new bull markets. It's particularly valuable because it combines multiple market factors - price action, volume, and timing - to confirm genuine market reversals rather than temporary bounces.
The power of the FTD lies in its ability to distinguish between ordinary market fluctuations and significant trend changes. By requiring specific criteria to be met across multiple sessions, it helps filter out false signals and identifies high-probability reversal points where institutional investors are likely beginning to accumulate positions.
Sweep Area
The Sweep area feature enhances the traditional FTD concept by incorporating modern liquidity analysis. This overlay identifies zones where large market participants are likely to trigger stop losses before continuing the trend. These areas often represent optimal entry points for traders looking to join the new uptrend with reduced risk.
🔎 BREAKDOWN
FTD Candle
The FTD formation process occurs in two distinct phases: Setup and Completion.
Setup Phase
Strong Market Decline
The market must first experience a significant downtrend
This selling pressure helps clear out weak hands and creates oversold conditions
The decline creates the potential energy for a powerful reversal
First Recovery Session
Marks the initial sign of buying pressure emerging
Often characterized by a strong reversal candle
Represents the first indication that selling pressure may be exhausting
Recovery Confirmation
The second and third days must maintain prices above the new pivot low
This consolidation period helps confirm the validity of the initial bounce
Shows that sellers are no longer in control of price action
Completion Phase:
Supply Test Session
Low volume indicates diminishing selling pressure
Price remains above the pivot low
Creates the foundation for institutional buyers to begin accumulating
Breakout Day
Price increase exceeds average profit of bullish candles
Volume increases by at least 15% compared to previous session
Shows strong institutional commitment to the new uptrend
Timing Window
Must occur between the 4th and 8th candle after First Recovery Session
This specific timing helps confirm the sustainability of the reversal
Based on O'Neil's research of historical market bottoms
FTD Sweep
The Post-FTD Phase introduces the Sweep concept, which is crucial for understanding how large market participants operate. This feature leverages the liquidity concept because institutional traders often need to trigger stop losses to accumulate larger positions at better prices. This helps:
Create liquidity pools for large position entries
Shake out weak hands before continuing the trend
Test the strength of the new trend by absorbing selling pressure
⚙️ USAGE
Sweep + TP & SL Strategy
Example: BTCUSDT (1D) - Replay back to 9th November 2024
After an FTD candle forms, traders can adopt a systematic approach to enhance their trading strategy. First, they should determine the swing range and convert the post-FTD zone into concrete stop loss and take profit levels, which are based on the price action during the FTD formation. Next, traders should wait for a sweep formation, as this indicates that institutional players are accumulating positions. A quick price rejection from the sweep level should be observed before executing an entry.
The reasoning behind this strategy is rooted in market microstructure. By waiting for the sweep, traders position themselves alongside institutional players who need to build large positions without causing adverse price movement. The sweep creates the liquidity they need, and the subsequent move often represents the true trend continuation.
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
Swing High/Low Pivots Strategy [LV]The Swing High/Low Pivots Strategy was developed as a counter-momentum trading tool.
The strategy is suitable for any market and the default values used in the input settings menu are set for Bitcoin (best on 15min). These values, expressed in minimum ticks (or pips if symbol is Forex) make this tool perfectly adaptable to every symbol and/or timeframe.
Check tooltips in the settings menu for more details about every user input.
STRTEGY ENTRY & EXIT MECHANISMS:
Trades Entry based on the detection of swing highs and lows for short and long entries respectively, validated by:
- Limit orders placed after each new pivot level confirmation
- Moving averages trend filter (if enabled)
- No active trade currently open
Trades Exit when the price reaches take-profit or stop-loss level as defined in the settings menu. A double entry/second take-profit level can be enabled for partial exits, with dynamic stop-loss adjustment for the remaining position.
Enhanced Trade Precision:
By limiting entries to confirmed swing high (HH, LH) or swing low (HL, LL) pivot points, the strategy ensures that trades occur at levels of significant price reversals. This precision reduces the likelihood of entering trades in the midst of a trend or during uncertain price action.
Risk Management Optimization:
The strategy incorporates clearly defined stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels derived from the pivot points. This structured approach minimizes potential losses while locking in profits, which is critical for consistent performance in volatile markets.
Trend Filtering for Better Entry:
The use of a configurable moving average filter adds a layer of trend validation. This prevents entering trades against the dominant market trend, increasing the probability of success for each trade.
Avoidance of Noise:
The lookback period (length parameter) confirms pivots only after a set number of bars, effectively filtering out market noise and ensuring that entries are based on reliable, well-defined price movements.
Adaptability Across Markets:
The strategy is versatile and can be applied across different markets (Forex, stocks, crypto) due to its dynamic use of ticks and pips converters. It adapts seamlessly to varying price scales and asset types.
Dual Quantity Entries:
The original and optionnal double-entry mechanism allows traders to capture both short-term and extended profits by scaling out of positions. This adaptive approach caters to varying risk appetites and market conditions.
Clear Visualization:
The plotted pivot points, entry limits, SL, and TP levels provide visual clarity, making it easy for traders to track the strategy's behavior and make informed decisions.
Automated Execution with Alerts:
Integrated alerts for both entries and exits ensure timely actions without the need for constant market monitoring, enhancing efficiency. Configurable alert messages are suitable for API use.
Any feedback, comments, or suggestions for improvement are always welcome.
Hope you enjoy!
MCP Stop Strategy [JARUTIR]The MCP Stop Strategy is a trading tool designed to help traders lock in profits and manage risks. It is based on the concept of setting a MCP (Mental Capacity Preservation) Stop explained in the book "The Lifecycle Trade". I call it Maximum Controllable Profit Stop which helps protect profits once a stock or asset reaches a new peak. The MCP Stop is dynamically calculated based on the Buy Price and the All Time High Price (Peak Price), and is adjusted using a customizable percentage (MCP%) to retain a portion of the gains from the peak price during a drawdown.
Key Features :
MCP Stop Calculation: The script calculates the MCP Stop as:
MCP Stop = Buy Price + (Peak Price - Buy Price) x MCP%
This helps you protect a portion of your gains (defined by MCP%) as the price moves in your favor.
Flexible Buy Date Option:
You can either manually input a Buy Date or let the script automatically detect the Buy Date when the price first meets or exceeds the user-defined Buy Price.
After the Buy Date, the MCP Stop, Buy Price, and Peak Price are plotted on the chart for easy visualization.
Customizable Parameters:
Buy Price: The price at which the asset was bought.
MCP Percentage: The percentage of profit from the peak that you want to retain in case of a drawdown.
Lookback Length: The number of bars to consider when calculating the Peak Price (All Time High).
How to Use the Script :
Set the Buy Price: Enter the price at which you bought the asset.
Set the MCP%: Enter the percentage of profits you want to protect from the peak. For example, if you want to retain 10% of the gain from the peak, set this to 10.
Choose the Buy Date Method:
Automated Buy Date: The script will automatically detect the first bar where the price meets or exceeds the Buy Price.
Manual Buy Date: If you prefer to specify a particular Buy Date, input the desired date and time.
View the MCP Stop and Peak Price: After the Buy Date (either manually or automatically detected), the MCP Stop, Buy Price, and Peak Price will be plotted on the chart.
Monitor the MCP Stop Trigger: The script will alert you when the price falls below the MCP Stop, indicating a potential exit point to protect profits.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
1. What is the MCP Stop?
The MCP Stop is a dynamic stop-loss level that adjusts based on your Buy Price and the All Time High Price (Peak Price). It protects a portion of your gains from the peak, which is defined by the MCP%. For example, if you set the MCP% to 10%, the script will retain 10% of the gains from the peak and use this as a stop-loss.
2. How does the Buy Date work?
The Buy Date is the date when you entered the position:
If you choose Automated Buy Date, the script will automatically set the Buy Date to the first bar when the price meets or exceeds the Buy Price.
If you choose Manual Buy Date, you can specify a particular date and time when you want the strategy to start calculating and plotting the MCP Stop and Peak Price.
3. What happens if the price falls below the MCP Stop?
If the price drops below the MCP Stop, the script will mark this as a potential exit point, helping you protect profits. A visual alert (MCP STOP) will be shown on the chart when the price reaches or falls below the MCP Stop.
4. Can I adjust the Lookback Length for Peak Price?
Yes, you can customize the Lookback Length (the number of bars the script considers when calculating the Peak Price) by entering a value in the input field. By default, it is set to 1000 bars, which represents a few months of historical data, but you can increase or decrease this based on your trading strategy.
5. Why would I want to use the automated Buy Date?
The Automated Buy Date is useful for traders who want the script to automatically track the Buy Date when the price first reaches or exceeds the Buy Price. This is helpful when you're unsure of the exact entry date but know the price at which you bought the asset. It simplifies the process by eliminating the need for manual input.
6. Can I use this strategy for long and short positions?
The current version of this script is designed for long positions, where you buy an asset and want to protect your profits as the price increases. If you're interested in applying it to short positions, you would need to adjust the logic accordingly (e.g., tracking the lowest price instead of the peak price).
7. Can I modify the script to fit my trading strategy?
Yes, this script is highly customizable. You can adjust parameters such as Buy Price, MCP%, and Lookback Length to suit your specific trading style. You can also tweak the visual appearance of the plotted lines and alerts.
Disclaimer:
This strategy is intended for educational purposes only. It should not be considered financial advice. Always perform your own research and consult with a professional before making any trading decisions. Trading involves significant risk, and you should never trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
RSI and Bollinger Bands Screener [deepakks444]Indicator Overview
The indicator is designed to help traders identify potential long signals by combining the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes. This combination allows traders to leverage the strengths of both indicators to make more informed trading decisions.
Understanding RSI
What is RSI?
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. for stocks and forex trading, the RSI is primarily used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in an asset.
How RSI Works:
Calculation: The RSI is calculated using the average gains and losses over a specified period, typically 14 periods.
Range: The RSI oscillates between 0 and 100.
Interpretation:
Key Features of RSI:
Momentum Indicator: RSI helps identify the momentum of price movements.
Divergences: RSI can show divergences, where the price makes a higher high, but the RSI makes a lower high, indicating potential reversals.
Trend Identification: RSI can also help identify trends. In an uptrend, the RSI tends to stay above 50, and in a downtrend, it tends to stay below 50.
Understanding Bollinger Bands
What is Bollinger Bands?
Bollinger Bands are a type of trading band or envelope plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average (SMA) of a price. Developed by financial analyst John Bollinger, Bollinger Bands consist of three lines:
Upper Band: SMA + (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
Middle Band (Basis): SMA
Lower Band: SMA - (Standard Deviation × Multiplier)
How Bollinger Bands Work:
Volatility Measure: Bollinger Bands measure the volatility of the market. When the bands are wide, it indicates high volatility, and when the bands are narrow, it indicates low volatility.
Price Movement: The price tends to revert to the mean (middle band) after touching the upper or lower bands.
Support and Resistance: The upper and lower bands can act as dynamic support and resistance levels.
Key Features of Bollinger Bands:
Volatility Indicator: Bollinger Bands help traders understand the volatility of the market.
Mean Reversion: Prices tend to revert to the mean (middle band) after touching the bands.
Squeeze: A Bollinger Band Squeeze occurs when the bands narrow significantly, indicating low volatility and a potential breakout.
Combining RSI and Bollinger Bands
Strategy Overview:
The strategy aims to identify potential long signals by combining RSI and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes. The key conditions are:
RSI Crossing Above 60: The RSI should cross above 60 on the 15-minute timeframe.
RSI Above 60 on Higher Timeframes: The RSI should already be above 60 on the hourly and daily timeframes.
Price Above 20MA or Walking on Upper Bollinger Band: The price should be above the 20-period moving average of the Bollinger Bands or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Strategy Details:
RSI Calculation:
Calculate the RSI for the 15-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day timeframes.
Check if the RSI crosses above 60 on the 15-minute timeframe.
Ensure the RSI is above 60 on the 1-hour and 1-day timeframes.
Bollinger Bands Calculation:
Calculate the Bollinger Bands using a 20-period moving average and 2 standard deviations.
Check if the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Entry and Exit Signals:
Long Signal: When all the above conditions are met, consider a long entry.
Exit: Exit the trade when the price crosses below the 20-period moving average or the stop-loss is hit.
Example Usage
Setup:
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
Configure the inputs as per your requirements.
Monitoring:
Look for the long signal on the chart.
Ensure that the RSI is above 60 on the 15-minute, 1-hour, and 1-day timeframes.
Check that the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band.
Trading:
Enter a long position when the criteria are met.
Set a stop-loss below the low of the recent 15-minute candle or based on your risk management rules.
Monitor the trade and exit when the RSI returns below 60 on any of the timeframes or when the price crosses below the 20-period moving average.
House Rules Compliance
No Financial Advice: This strategy is for educational purposes only and should not be construed as financial advice.
Risk Management: Always use proper risk management techniques, including stop-loss orders and position sizing.
Past Performance: Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always conduct your own research and analysis.
TradingView Guidelines: Ensure that any shared scripts or strategies comply with TradingView's terms of service and community guidelines.
Conclusion
This strategy combines RSI and Bollinger Bands across multiple timeframes to identify potential long signals. By ensuring that the RSI is above 60 on higher timeframes and that the price is above the 20-period moving average or walking on the upper Bollinger Band, traders can make more informed decisions. Always remember to conduct thorough research and use proper risk management techniques.
MACD Aggressive Scalp SimpleComment on the Script
Purpose and Structure:
The script is a scalping strategy based on the MACD indicator combined with EMA (50) as a trend filter.
It uses the MACD histogram's crossover/crossunder of zero to trigger entries and exits, allowing the trader to capitalize on short-term momentum shifts.
The use of strategy.close ensures that positions are closed when specified conditions are met, although adjustments were made to align with Pine Script version 6.
Strengths:
Simplicity and Clarity: The logic is straightforward and focuses on essential scalping principles (momentum-based entries and exits).
Visual Indicators: The plotted MACD line, signal line, and histogram columns provide clear visual feedback for the strategy's operation.
Trend Confirmation: Incorporating the EMA(50) as a trend filter helps avoid trades that go against the prevailing trend, reducing the likelihood of false signals.
Dynamic Exit Conditions: The conditional logic for closing positions based on weakening momentum (via MACD histogram change) is a good way to protect profits or minimize losses.
Potential Improvements:
Parameter Inputs:
Make the MACD (12, 26, 9) and EMA(50) values adjustable by the user through input statements for better customization during backtesting.
Example:
pine
Copy code
macdFast = input(12, title="MACD Fast Length")
macdSlow = input(26, title="MACD Slow Length")
macdSignal = input(9, title="MACD Signal Line Length")
emaLength = input(50, title="EMA Length")
Stop Loss and Take Profit:
The strategy currently lacks explicit stop-loss or take-profit levels, which are critical in a scalping strategy to manage risk and lock in profits.
ATR-based or fixed-percentage exits could be added for better control.
Position Size and Risk Management:
While the script uses 50% of equity per trade, additional options (e.g., fixed position sizes or risk-adjusted sizes) would be beneficial for flexibility.
Avoid Overlapping Signals:
Add logic to prevent overlapping signals (e.g., opening a new position immediately after closing one on the same bar).
Backtesting Optimization:
Consider adding labels or markers (label.new or plotshape) to visualize entry and exit points on the chart for better debugging and analysis.
The inclusion of performance metrics like max drawdown, Sharpe ratio, or profit factor would help assess the strategy's robustness during backtesting.
Compatibility with Live Trading:
The strategy could be further enhanced with alert conditions using alertcondition to notify the trader of buy/sell signals in real-time.
Hidden SMT Divergence ICT 01 [TradingFinder] HSMT SMC Technique🔵 Introduction
Hidden SMT Divergence, an advanced concept within the Smart Money Technique (SMT), identifies discrepancies between correlated assets by focusing on their closing prices.
Unlike the standard SMT Divergence, which uses high and low prices for analysis, Hidden SMT Divergence uncovers subtle signals by examining divergences based on the assets' closing values.
These divergences often highlight potential reversals or trend continuations, making this technique a valuable tool for traders aiming to anticipate market movements.
This approach applies across various markets and asset classes, including :

Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence : This divergence emerges when one asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset creates a lower low in terms of their closing prices. It often signals weakening downward momentum and a potential reversal to the upside.
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence : This occurs when one asset establishes a higher high, while the correlated asset forms a lower high based on their closing prices. It typically reflects declining upward momentum and a probable shift to the downside.
🔵 How to Use
The Hidden SMT Divergence indicator provides traders with a systematic approach to identify market reversals or trend continuations through divergences in closing prices between two correlated assets.
🟣 Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence
Bullish Hidden SMT Divergence occurs when the closing price of the primary asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset creates a lower low. This pattern indicates weakening downward momentum and signals a potential reversal to the upside.
After identifying the divergence, confirm it using additional tools like support levels, volume trends, or indicators such as RSI and MACD. Enter a buy position as the price shows signs of reversal near support zones, ensuring proper risk management by placing a stop-loss below the support level.
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence
Bearish Hidden SMT Divergence is identified when the closing price of the primary asset forms a higher high, while the correlated asset creates a lower high. This divergence suggests a weakening uptrend and a likely reversal to the downside.
Validate the signal by examining resistance levels, declining volume, or complementary indicators. Consider entering a sell position as the price starts declining from resistance levels, and set a stop-loss above the resistance zone to limit potential losses.
🔵 Setting
Second Symbol : Select the secondary asset to compare with the primary asset. By default, "XAUUSD" (Gold) is used, but it can be customized to any stock, cryptocurrency, or currency pair.
Divergence Fractal Periods : Defines the number of past candles considered for identifying divergences. The default value is 2, but traders can adjust it for greater precision.
Bullish Divergence Line : Displays a dashed line connecting the points of bullish divergence.
Bearish Divergence Line : Shows a similar line for bearish divergence points.
Bullish Divergence Label : Marks areas of bullish divergence with a "+SMT" label.
Bearish Divergence Label : Highlights bearish divergences with a "-SMT" label.
Chart Type : Choose between Line or Candle charts for enhanced visualization.
🔵 Conclusion
Hidden SMT Divergence offers traders a refined method for identifying market reversals by analyzing closing price discrepancies between correlated assets. Its ability to uncover subtle divergences makes it an essential tool for traders who aim to stay ahead of market trends.
By integrating this technique with other technical analysis tools and sound risk management, traders can enhance their decision-making process and capitalize on market opportunities with greater confidence.
Hidden SMT Divergence’s focus on closing prices ensures more precise signals, helping traders refine their strategies across various markets, including Forex, commodities, indices, and cryptocurrencies.
Its open-source nature allows for customization and verification, providing transparency and flexibility to suit diverse trading needs. Hidden SMT Divergence stands as a powerful addition to the arsenal of any trader seeking to unlock hidden opportunities in dynamic financial markets.
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!

US 30 Daily Breakout Strategy The US 30 Daily Breakout Strategy (Single Trade Per Breakout/Breakdown) is a trading approach for the US 30 (Dow Jones Industrial Average) that aims to capture breakout or breakdown moves based on the previous day’s high and low levels. The strategy includes mechanisms to take only one trade per breakout (or breakdown) each day and ensures that each trade is executed only when no other trade is open.
Entry Conditions:
Long Trade (Breakout): The strategy initiates a long position if the current candle closes above the previous day's high, indicating an upward breakout. Only one breakout trade can occur per day, regardless of whether the price remains above the previous high.
Short Trade (Breakdown): The strategy initiates a short position if the current candle closes below the previous day's low, indicating a downward breakdown. Similarly, only one breakdown trade can occur per day.
Risk Management:
Take Profit and Stop Loss: Each trade has a take profit and stop loss of 50 points, aiming to cap profit and limit loss effectively for each position.
Daily Reset Mechanism:
At the start of each new day (based on New York time), the strategy resets its flags, allowing it to look for new breakout or breakdown trades. This reset ensures that only one trade can be taken per breakout or breakdown level each day.
Execution Logic
Flags for Trade Limitation: Flags (breakout_traded and breakdown_traded) are used to ensure only one breakout or breakdown trade is taken per day. These flags reset daily.
Dynamic Plotting: The previous day’s high and low are plotted on the chart, providing a visual reference for potential breakout or breakdown levels.
Overall Objective
This strategy is designed to capture single-directional daily moves by identifying significant breakouts or breakdowns beyond the previous day’s range. The fixed profit and loss limits ensure the trades are managed with controlled risk, while the daily reset feature prevents overtrading and limits each trade opportunity to one breakout and one breakdown attempt per day.

Options Series - P_SAR And Supertrend
The provided PineScript combines two well-known indicators—Parabolic SAR (P_SAR) and Supertrend—to create a comprehensive trading tool. Here are some powerful insights and the importance of this script:
⭐ 1. Supertrend Indicator:
What it does: The Supertrend indicator is based on the Average True Range (ATR) and is used to identify trend direction. When the price is above the Supertrend line, it suggests an uptrend, and when below, a downtrend.
Insights:
Trend Following: By adjusting the ATR length (atrPeriod) and the multiplier (factor), you can fine-tune the sensitivity of the Supertrend. A smaller ATR or factor results in more frequent trend changes, whereas larger values make the indicator more robust but slower to react.
Trend Visualization: The script highlights trends with the help of green and red lines, offering a clear visual cue for traders. The uptrend is filled with a translucent green and the downtrend with red, allowing quick identification of market momentum.
⭐ 2. Parabolic SAR (P_SAR):
What it does: The Parabolic SAR is a time/price-based indicator that helps identify potential reversals in the market. The dots (SAR) follow the price and move closer to it as the trend progresses.
Insights:
Trailing Stops: This is commonly used by traders to trail stop losses, as the SAR moves closer to price as the trend strengthens.
Combining with Supertrend: The SAR dots in this script act as an additional confirmation for trend direction. For instance, when the price is above both the SAR and Supertrend, it strongly suggests an uptrend.
⭐ 3. Bar Coloring Based on Trend Confirmation:
What it does: The script calculates conditions based on whether the price is above or below both the Supertrend and SAR values.
Insights:
Bullish/Bearish Confirmation: The combination of these two indicators provides a stronger confirmation of trend direction compared to using either one alone. For example:
Green Bars: If the price is above both the Supertrend and SAR, it signals a strong uptrend (bullish).
Red Bars: If the price is below both, it suggests a strong downtrend (bearish).
Visual Alerts: The candle colors are adjusted based on these conditions, providing a quick visual alert for traders to take action.
⭐ 4. Importance of Using Both Supertrend and P_SAR:
Multiple Confirmations: Combining the Supertrend and Parabolic SAR increases the accuracy of trend-following strategies. Each indicator has its strengths: Supertrend is good for identifying the overall trend, while the SAR excels at identifying potential reversals.
Risk Management: This script can help you not only identify trends but also manage your positions more effectively. The Parabolic SAR, for example, can serve as a dynamic stop-loss level, while the Supertrend can help you stay in trades longer by smoothing out noise in the market.
⭐ 5. Customizable Inputs:
Adaptability: The user can adjust the ATR period, factor, start, increment, and maximum values, tailoring the script to different market conditions and timeframes. This flexibility is essential, as each asset class or market may require different parameter settings.
⭐ 6. Practical Application in Trading:
Entry and Exit Signals: The script can be used to generate entry and exit signals. For instance:
Buy Signal: When the bar turns green (price is above Supertrend and SAR), it could be a signal to go long.
Sell Signal: When the bar turns red (price is below Supertrend and SAR), it could be a signal to go short or exit a long position.
Stop-Loss Placement: The Parabolic SAR dots can act as trailing stop-loss levels, helping traders lock in profits as trends progress.
Trend Continuation vs. Reversal: The Supertrend provides a broader view of the trend, while the Parabolic SAR provides pinpoint entry/exit signals for reversals.
🚀 Conclusion:
This script is a robust combination of trend-following and reversal indicators, making it a versatile tool for traders. The dual confirmation from Supertrend and Parabolic SAR reduces false signals, and the color-coded bars provide quick insights into market conditions. When used properly, this can greatly improve your ability to catch trends early, exit at the right moment, and manage risk effectively.
Charan_Trading_IndicatorCharan_Trading_Indicator Overview:
The Charan_Trading_Indicator combines several technical analysis tools, including Bollinger Bands, RSI (Relative Strength Index), VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price), and ATR (Average True Range), to provide buy and sell signals. The script incorporates multiple strategies, such as crack snap setups, overbought/oversold levels, and trend continuation indicators, all tailored for precise market entry and exit points.
Key Components:
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The indicator uses RSI to detect overbought (RSI > 70) and oversold (RSI < 30) market conditions.
Alerts are triggered when prices are within the specified buy/sell range and RSI crosses these thresholds.
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands are calculated based on a configurable moving average and standard deviation.
The script identifies potential buy signals when the price dips below the lower Bollinger Band and recovers, and sell signals when the price exceeds the upper Bollinger Band and retraces.
Crack Snap Strategies:
The indicator incorporates multiple variations of the crack snap strategy:
Buy Signals: Triggered when price opens below the lower Bollinger Band and closes above it, alongside certain conditions in previous candles.
Sell Signals: Triggered when price opens above the upper Bollinger Band and closes below it, with similar candle patterns.
Variations such as 3-candle (3C) and 4-candle (4C) versions refine the crack snap setups for more robust signals.
Isolated Candle Conditions:
The indicator tracks isolated candles, where the entire candle lies above or below the Bollinger Bands, to identify potential reversal points.
Trend Continuation Signals:
Conditions based on the candle range and previous highs/lows allow the indicator to generate signals for trend continuation:
Buy signals when price breaks above the previous two highs.
Sell signals when price breaks below the previous two lows.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price):
The indicator integrates VWAP to give additional support and resistance levels, ensuring signals align with volume trends.
ATR-Based Stop Loss:
For both buy and sell conditions, the script plots stop-loss levels based on the ATR (Average True Range), giving dynamic risk management levels.
Buy/Sell Ranges:
The user can set minimum and maximum price ranges for buy and sell signals, ensuring that the indicator only generates alerts within desired price ranges.
How It Works:
Buy Signals: The script generates buy signals based on multiple conditions, including the crack snap strategy, oversold RSI levels, and trend continuation setups. When these conditions are met, green triangles appear below the price bars, and an alert is triggered.
Sell Signals: Sell signals are triggered when the opposite conditions are met (overbought RSI, crack snap sell setups, trend breaks), and red triangles appear above the price bars.
Visual Indicators: The script plots upper and lower Bollinger Bands, stop loss levels, and VWAP on the chart, providing a comprehensive view of market conditions and support/resistance levels.
This indicator is versatile, combining multiple technical tools for robust decision-making in trading. It generates alerts, plots visual markers, and integrates risk management, making it a well-rounded tool for technical analysis.

Uptrick: Dual Moving Average Volume Oscillator
Title: Uptrick: Dual Moving Average Volume Oscillator (DPVO)
### Overview
The "Uptrick: Dual Moving Average Volume Oscillator" (DPVO) is an advanced trading tool designed to enhance market analysis by integrating volume data with price action. This indicator is specially developed to provide traders with deeper insights into market dynamics, making it easier to spot potential entry and exit points based on volume and price interactions. The DPVO stands out by offering a sophisticated approach to traditional volume analysis, setting it apart from typical volume indicators available on the TradingView platform.
### Unique Features
Unlike traditional indicators that analyze volume and price movements separately, the DPVO combines these two critical elements to offer a comprehensive view of market behavior. By calculating the Volume Impact, which involves the product of the exponential moving averages (EMAs) of volume and the price range (close - open), this indicator highlights significant trading activities that could indicate strong buying or selling pressure. This method allows traders to see not just the volume spikes, but how those spikes relate to price movements, providing a clearer picture of market sentiment.
### Customization and Inputs
The DPVO is highly customizable, catering to various trading styles and strategies:
- **Oscillator Length (`oscLength`)**: Adjusts the period over which the volume and price difference is analyzed, allowing traders to set it according to their trading timeframe.
- **Fast and Slow Moving Averages (`fastMA` and `slowMA`)**: These parameters control the responsiveness of the DPVO. A shorter `fastMA` coupled with a longer `slowMA` can help in identifying trends quicker or smoothing out market noise for more conservative approaches.
- **Signal Smoothing (`signalSmooth`)**: This input helps in reducing signal noise, making the crossover and crossunder points between the DVO and its smoothed signal line clearer and easier to interpret.
### Functionality Details
The DPVO operates through a sequence of calculated steps that integrate volume data with price movement:
1. **Volume Impact Calculation**: This is the foundational step where the product of the EMA of volume and the EMA of price range (close - open) is calculated. This metric highlights trading sessions where significant volume accompanies substantial price movements, suggesting a strong market response.
2. **Dynamic Volume Oscillator (DVO)**: The heart of the indicator, the DVO, is derived by calculating the difference between the fast EMA and the slow EMA of the Volume Impact. This result is then normalized by dividing by the EMA of the volume over the same period to scale the output, making it consistent across various trading environments.
3. **Signal Generation**: The final output is smoothed using a simple moving average of the DVO to filter out market noise. Buy and sell signals are generated based on the crossover and crossunder of the DVO with its smoothed version, providing clear cues for market entry or exit.
### Originality
The DPVO's originality lies in its innovative integration of volume and price movement, a novel approach not typically observed in other volume indicators. By analyzing the product of volume and price change EMAs, the DPVO captures the essence of market dynamics more holistically than traditional tools, which often only reflect volume levels without contextualizing them with price actions. This dual analysis provides traders with a deeper understanding of market forces, enabling them to make more informed decisions based on a combination of volume surges and significant price movements. The DPVO also introduces a unique normalization and smoothing technique that refines the oscillator's output, offering cleaner and more reliable signals that are adaptable to various market conditions and trading styles.
### Practical Application
The DPVO excels in environments where volume plays a crucial role in validating price movements. Traders can utilize the buy and sell signals generated by the DPVO to enhance their decision-making process. The signals are plotted directly on the trading chart, with buy signals appearing below the price bars and sell signals above, ensuring they are prominent and actionable. This setup is particularly useful for day traders and swing traders who rely on timely and accurate signals to maximize their trading opportunities.
### Best Practices
To maximize the effectiveness of the DPVO, traders should consider the following best practices:
- **Market Selection**: Use the DPVO in markets known for strong volume-price correlation such as major forex pairs, popular stocks, and cryptocurrencies.
- **Signal Confirmation**: While the DPVO provides powerful signals, confirming these signals with additional indicators such as RSI or MACD can increase trade reliability.
- **Risk Management**: Always use stop-loss orders to manage risks associated with trading signals. Adjust the position size based on the volatility of the asset to avoid significant losses.
### Practical Example + How to use it
Practical Example1: Day Trading Cryptocurrencies
For a day trader focusing on the highly volatile cryptocurrency market, the DPVO can be an effective tool on a 15-minute chart. Suppose a trader is monitoring Bitcoin (BTC) during a period of high market activity. The DPVO might show an upward crossover of the DVO above its smoothed signal line while also indicating a significant increase in volume. This could signal that strong buying pressure is entering the market, suggesting a potential short-term rally. The trader could enter a long position based on this signal, setting a stop-loss just below the recent support level to manage risk. If the DPVO later shows a crossover in the opposite direction with decreasing volume, it might signal a good exit point, allowing the trader to lock in profits before a potential pullback.
- **Swing Trading Stocks**: For a swing trader looking at stocks, the DPVO could be applied on a daily chart. If the oscillator shows a consistent downward trend along with increasing volume, this could suggest a potential sell-off, providing a sell signal before a significant downturn.
You can look for:
--> Increase in volume - You can use indicators like 24-hour-Volume to have a better visualization
--> Uptrend/Downtrend in the indicator (HH, HL, LL, LH)
--> Confirmation (Buy signal/Sell signal)
--> Correct Price action (Not too steep moves up or down. Stable moves.) (Optional)
--> Confirmation with other indicators (Optional)
Quick image showing you an example of a buy signal on SOLANA:
### Technical Notes
- **Calculation Efficiency**: The DPVO utilizes exponential moving averages (EMAs) in its calculations, which provides a balance between responsiveness and smoothing. EMAs are favored over simple moving averages in this context because they give more weight to recent data, making the indicator more sensitive to recent market changes.
- **Normalization**: The normalization of the DVO by the EMA of the volume ensures that the oscillator remains consistent across different assets and timeframes. This means the indicator can be used on a wide variety of markets without needing significant adjustments, making it a versatile tool for traders.
- **Signal Line Smoothing**: The final signal line is smoothed using a simple moving average (SMA) to reduce noise. The choice of SMA for smoothing, as opposed to EMA, is intentional to provide a more stable signal that is less prone to frequent whipsaws, which can occur in highly volatile markets.
- **Lag and Sensitivity**: Like all moving average-based indicators, the DPVO may introduce a slight lag in signal generation. However, this is offset by the indicator’s ability to filter out market noise, making it a reliable tool for identifying genuine trends and reversals. Adjusting the `fastMA`, `slowMA`, and `signalSmooth` inputs allows traders to fine-tune the sensitivity of the DPVO to match their specific trading strategy and market conditions.
- **Platform Compatibility**: The DPVO is written in Pine Script™ v5, ensuring compatibility with the latest features and functionalities offered by TradingView. This version takes advantage of optimized functions for performance and accuracy in calculations, making it well-suited for real-time analysis.
Conclusion
The "Uptrick: Dual Moving Average Volume Oscillator" is a revolutionary tool that merges volume analysis with price movement to offer traders a more nuanced understanding of market trends and reversals. Its ability to provide clear, actionable signals based on a unique combination of volume and price changes makes it an invaluable addition to any trader's toolkit.

Shark Harmonic Pattern [TradingFinder] Shark Detector Indicator🔵 Introduction
The Shark harmonic pattern, first introduced by Scott Carney in 2011, is a recognized tool in technical analysis. Since its inception, it has been widely adopted by traders as an essential market analysis tool.
Due to its complexity, the Shark pattern can be challenging for novice traders. Therefore, we have developed the Harmonic Pattern Indicator to help analysts and traders easily identify these patterns.
🟣 Understanding the Types of Shark Pattern
In technical analysis, the Shark harmonic pattern forms at the end of trends and is categorized into two types: Bullish and Bearish Shark Patterns.
Bullish Shark Pattern : This pattern appears at the end of a downtrend, indicating a potential reversal to an uptrend. Traders can use this pattern to identify buy entry points. The image below illustrates the core components of the Bullish Shark Pattern.
Bearish Shark Pattern : Conversely, the Bearish Shark Pattern forms at the end of an uptrend, signaling a possible reversal to a downtrend. This pattern prompts traders to shift their positions from buying to selling. The image below showcases the characteristics of the Bearish Shark Pattern.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 Trading with the Bullish Shark Pattern
The Bullish Shark Pattern acts as a reversal pattern, helping traders identify the end of a downtrend and the beginning of an uptrend. It consists of five key points that indicate alternating bullish and bearish movements.
Upon the complete formation of this pattern, traders can look for opportunities to enter buy trades. To manage risk effectively, it is advisable to set a stop-loss below the lowest price point within the pattern.
🟣 Trading with the Bearish Shark Pattern
Similarly, the Bearish Shark Pattern functions as a reversal pattern but in the opposite direction. It helps traders identify the end of an uptrend and the onset of a downtrend.
After the pattern fully forms, traders can seek sell entry opportunities. As with the bullish pattern, placing a stop-loss above the highest price point within the pattern is recommended for risk management.
🔵 Setting
🟣 Logical Setting
ZigZag Pivot Period : You can adjust the period so that the harmonic patterns are adjusted according to the pivot period you want. This factor is the most important parameter in pattern recognition.
Show Valid Format : If this parameter is on "On" mode, only patterns will be displayed that they have exact format and no noise can be seen in them. If "Off" is, the patterns displayed that maybe are noisy and do not exactly correspond to the original pattern.
Show Formation Last Pivot Confirm : if Turned on, you can see this ability of patterns when their last pivot is formed. If this feature is off, it will see the patterns as soon as they are formed. The advantage of this option being clear is less formation of fielded patterns, and it is accompanied by the latest pattern seeing and a sharp reduction in reward to risk.
Period of Formation Last Pivot : Using this parameter you can determine that the last pivot is based on Pivot period.
🟣 Genaral Setting
Show : Enter "On" to display the template and "Off" to not display the template.
Color : Enter the desired color to draw the pattern in this parameter.
LineWidth : You can enter the number 1 or numbers higher than one to adjust the thickness of the drawing lines. This number must be an integer and increases with increasing thickness.
LabelSize : You can adjust the size of the labels by using the "size.auto", "size.tiny", "size.smal", "size.normal", "size.large" or "size.huge" entries.
🟣 Alert Setting

Message Frequency : This string parameter defines the announcement frequency. Choices include: "All" (activates the alert every time the function is called), "Once Per Bar" (activates the alert only on the first call within the bar), and "Once Per Bar Close" (the alert is activated only by a call at the last script execution of the real-time bar upon closing). The default setting is "Once per Bar".
Show Alert Time by Time Zone : The date, hour, and minute you receive in alert messages can be based on any time zone you choose. For example, if you want New York time, you should enter "UTC-4". This input is set to the time zone "UTC" by default.
🔵 Conclusion
The Shark harmonic pattern is a potent analytical tool in technical analysis that aids traders in identifying critical reversal points in financial markets. Whether in a bullish or bearish context, this pattern provides clear trend change signals, allowing traders to enter trades with greater precision and optimize their strategies.
However, as with all analytical methods, it is essential to supplement the Shark pattern with additional analyses and strict risk management to avoid potential losses. Incorporating this pattern into a comprehensive trading strategy can lead to better trade outcomes and more opportunities for success
EMA Cross Fibonacci Entry with RetracementThe EMA Cross Fibonacci Entry with Retracement is a trading strategy that combines two popular technical analysis tools: Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) and Fibonacci retracement levels. Here's a brief overview of how this strategy typically works:
### Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
1. **EMAs Calculation**: EMAs give more weight to recent price data, making them more responsive to price changes. Commonly used periods for EMAs in this strategy are the 50-period and 200-period EMAs.
2. **EMA Cross**: The strategy looks for a "golden cross" (short-term EMA crosses above the long-term EMA) as a potential buy signal, and a "death cross" (short-term EMA crosses below the long-term EMA) as a potential sell signal.
### Fibonacci Retracement Levels
1. **Fibonacci Retracement**: This tool is used to identify potential support and resistance levels based on the Fibonacci sequence. The key retracement levels are 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, and 78.6%.
2. **Drawing Retracement Levels**: Traders draw Fibonacci retracement levels from a significant peak to a significant trough (or vice versa) to identify potential retracement levels where the price might reverse.
### Combining EMA Cross with Fibonacci Retracement
1. **Identify EMA Cross**: First, traders look for an EMA cross. For example, a golden cross where a shorter EMA (e.g., 50 EMA) crosses above a longer EMA (e.g., 200 EMA) suggests a bullish trend.
2. **Wait for Retracement**: After identifying a cross, traders wait for the price to retrace to a Fibonacci level. The key levels to watch are 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8%.
3. **Entry Point**: The entry point is when the price retraces to a Fibonacci level and shows signs of reversal (e.g., bullish candlestick patterns, support at Fibonacci levels). This is typically when traders enter a long position.
4. **Confirmation with EMA**: Ensure that the EMAs support the trend. For a buy entry, the short-term EMA should remain above the long-term EMA.
### Example of a Bullish Entry
1. **Golden Cross**: 50 EMA crosses above 200 EMA.
2. **Retracement**: Price retraces to the 38.2% Fibonacci level.
3. **Entry Signal**: At the 38.2% level, a bullish candlestick pattern (e.g., hammer) forms, indicating potential support.
4. **Entry Point**: Enter a long position at the close of the bullish candlestick.
### Risk Management
1. **Stop Loss**: Place a stop loss below the next Fibonacci retracement level or below the recent swing low to limit potential losses.
2. **Take Profit**: Set a take profit target based on a risk-reward ratio, previous resistance levels, or further Fibonacci extensions.
### Conclusion
The EMA Cross Fibonacci Entry with Retracement strategy is a systematic approach to identifying entry points in a trending market. By combining the responsiveness of EMAs with the predictive power of Fibonacci retracement levels, traders aim to enter trades at optimal points, increasing their chances of success while managing risk effectively.

Strategy Logic:
1. Moving Average Calculation: The selected moving average is calculated based on user-defined parameters.
2. Entry Conditions:
- A long position is entered when the entry source crosses over the moving average, if long positions are enabled.
- A short position is entered when the entry source crosses under the moving average, if short positions are enabled.
3. Stop-Loss: Positions are closed if the stop-loss source crosses the moving average in the opposite direction.
4. Profit Targets: Multiple profit targets are defined, with each target set at an incremental percentage above (for long positions) or below (for short positions) the entry price.
Default Properties:
- Account Size: $10000
- Commission: 0.01% per trade
- Risk Management: Positions are sized to risk 80% of the equity per trade, because we get very tight stoploss when position is open.
