MACD Volume Strategy for XAUUSD (15m) [PineIndicators]The MACD Volume Strategy is a momentum-based trading system designed for XAUUSD on the 15-minute timeframe. It integrates two key market indicators: the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and a volume-based oscillator to identify strong trend shifts and confirm trade opportunities. This strategy uses dynamic position sizing, incorporates leverage customization, and applies structured entry and exit conditions to improve risk management.
⚙️ Core Strategy Components
1️⃣ Volume-Based Momentum Calculation
The strategy includes a custom volume oscillator to filter trade signals based on market activity. The oscillator is derived from the difference between short-term and long-term volume trends using Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)
Short EMA (default = 5) represents recent volume activity.
Long EMA (default = 8) captures broader volume trends.
Positive values indicate rising volume, supporting momentum-based trades.
Negative values suggest weak market activity, reducing signal reliability.
By requiring positive oscillator values, the strategy ensures momentum confirmation before entering trades.
2️⃣ MACD Trend Confirmation
The strategy uses the MACD indicator as a trend filter. The MACD is calculated as:
Fast EMA (16-period) detects short-term price trends.
Slow EMA (26-period) smooths out price fluctuations to define the overall trend.
Signal Line (9-period EMA) helps identify crossovers, signaling potential trend shifts.
Histogram (MACD – Signal) visualizes trend strength.
The system generates trade signals based on MACD crossovers around the zero line, confirming bullish or bearish trend shifts.
📌 Trade Logic & Conditions
🔹 Long Entry Conditions
A buy signal is triggered when all the following conditions are met:
✅ MACD crosses above 0, signaling bullish momentum.
✅ Volume oscillator is positive, confirming increased trading activity.
✅ Current volume is at least 50% of the previous candle’s volume, ensuring market participation.
🔻 Short Entry Conditions
A sell signal is generated when:
✅ MACD crosses below 0, indicating bearish momentum.
✅ Volume oscillator is positive, ensuring market activity is sufficient.
✅ Current volume is less than 50% of the previous candle’s volume, showing decreasing participation.
This multi-factor approach filters out weak or false signals, ensuring that trades align with both momentum and volume dynamics.
📏 Position Sizing & Leverage
Dynamic Position Calculation:
Qty = strategy.equity × leverage / close price
Leverage: Customizable (default = 1x), allowing traders to adjust risk exposure.
Adaptive Sizing: The strategy scales position sizes based on account equity and market price.
Slippage & Commission: Built-in slippage (2 points) and commission (0.01%) settings provide realistic backtesting results.
This ensures efficient capital allocation, preventing overexposure in volatile conditions.
🎯 Trade Management & Exits
Take Profit & Stop Loss Mechanism
Each position includes predefined profit and loss targets:
Take Profit: +10% of risk amount.
Stop Loss: Fixed at 10,100 points.
The risk-reward ratio remains balanced, aiming for controlled drawdowns while maximizing trade potential.
Visual Trade Tracking
To improve trade analysis, the strategy includes:
📌 Trade Markers:
"Buy" label when a long position opens.
"Close" label when a position exits.
📌 Trade History Boxes:
Green for profitable trades.
Red for losing trades.
📌 Horizontal Trade Lines:
Shows entry and exit prices.
Helps identify trend movements over multiple trades.
This structured visualization allows traders to analyze past performance directly on the chart.

FRAMA-LRO📌 FRAMA × LRO Auto-Trading Strategy - Adaptive Trend & Momentum System
Overview
This Pine Script provides an automated trading strategy that combines FRAMA (Fractal Adaptive Moving Average) and LRO (Linear Regression Oscillator) to enhance trend detection and momentum analysis. Unlike traditional moving averages, FRAMA dynamically adjusts to price volatility, while LRO effectively measures momentum for high-precision entries.
📌 Key Features
1. Dynamic Trend & Momentum Synergy
FRAMA: Detects price trends by adjusting to market conditions using fractal dimensions.
LRO: Filters trades based on linear regression slope momentum.
Breakout Confirmation: Entry is validated when price breaks FRAMA bands with LRO support.
2. Realistic Backtesting Settings
Initial Capital: $5,000 (more in line with retail traders).
Risk Management: 5% equity per trade.
Slippage & Commission: Adjusted to realistic values (1 pip slippage, 94 pips spread per trade).
Backtest Data: Covers at least 100 trades for statistical significance.
3. Clear Trade Logic
Long Entry: Price breaks above FRAMA upper band & LRO > 0.
Short Entry: Price breaks below FRAMA lower band & LRO < 0.
Stop-Loss: Dynamic ATR-based calculation.
Take-Profit: Fixed risk-reward ratio (1:2).
📌 How It Works
The system identifies trend strength with FRAMA, then confirms momentum shifts with LRO before executing trades. This ensures higher accuracy and filters false breakouts.
📌 Visual Aids for Clarity
Color-Coded Candles:
🟢 Uptrend (LRO > 0)
🔵 Downtrend (LRO < 0)
⚪ Neutral (LRO ≈ 0)
Chart Annotations: Clearly marked trade signals for easy reference.
📌 Risk Management & Automation
Fully automated execution of entries, stop-loss, and take-profit.
ATR-based volatility adaptation for dynamic SL adjustments.
Customizable parameters (period, volatility settings, risk percentage).
📌 Originality & Enhancements
This script is not just a combination of FRAMA & LRO, but an optimized system designed to:
Improve signal accuracy using adaptive trend detection.
Eliminate noise with LRO-based momentum filtering.
Implement dynamic risk management via ATR-based SL.
Influences & Acknowledgments
This strategy builds on methodologies inspired by ChartPrime and BigBeluga, refining their concepts for a systematic approach.

SMA + RSI + Volume + ATR StrategySMA + RSI + Volume + ATR Strategy
1. Indicators Used:
SMA (Simple Moving Average): This is a trend-following indicator that calculates the average price of a security over a specified period (50 periods in this case). It's used to identify the overall trend of the market.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): This measures the speed and change of price movements. It tells us if the market is overbought (too high) or oversold (too low). Overbought is above 70 and oversold is below 30.
Volume: This is the amount of trading activity. A higher volume often indicates strong interest in a particular price move.
ATR (Average True Range): This measures volatility, or how much the price is moving in a given period. It helps us adjust stop losses and take profits based on market volatility.
2. Conditions for Entering Trades:
Buy Signal (Green Up Arrow):
Price is above the 50-period SMA (indicating an uptrend).
RSI is below 30 (indicating the market might be oversold or undervalued, signaling a potential reversal).
Current volume is higher than average volume (indicating strong interest in the move).
ATR is increasing (indicating higher volatility, suggesting that the market might be ready for a move).
Sell Signal (Red Down Arrow):
Price is below the 50-period SMA (indicating a downtrend).
RSI is above 70 (indicating the market might be overbought or overvalued, signaling a potential reversal).
Current volume is higher than average volume (indicating strong interest in the move).
ATR is increasing (indicating higher volatility, suggesting that the market might be ready for a move).
3. Take Profit & Stop Loss:
Take Profit: When a trade is made, the strategy will set a target price at a certain percentage above or below the entry price (1.5% in this case) to automatically exit the trade once that target is hit.
Stop Loss: If the price goes against the position, a stop loss is set at a percentage below or above the entry price (0.5% in this case) to limit losses.
4. Execution of Trades:
When the buy condition is met, the strategy will enter a long position (buying).
When the sell condition is met, the strategy will enter a short position (selling).
5. Visual Representation:
Green Up Arrow: Appears on the chart when the buy condition is met.
Red Down Arrow: Appears on the chart when the sell condition is met.
These arrows help you see at a glance when the strategy suggests you should buy or sell.
In Summary:
This strategy uses a combination of trend-following (SMA), momentum (RSI), volume, and volatility (ATR) to decide when to buy or sell a stock. It looks for opportunities when the market is either oversold (buy signal) or overbought (sell signal) and makes sure there’s enough volume and volatility to back up the move. It also includes take-profit and stop-loss levels to manage risk.

Bullish Reversal Bar Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
Bullish Reversal Bar Strategy leverages the combination of candlestick pattern Bullish Reversal Bar (description in Methodology and Justification of Methodology), Williams Alligator indicator and Williams Fractals to create the high probability setups. Candlestick pattern is used for the entering into trade, while the combination of Williams Alligator and Fractals is used for the trend approximation as close condition. Strategy uses only long trades.
Unique Features
No fixed stop-loss and take profit: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes technical condition obtained by Fractals and Alligator or the candlestick pattern invalidation to identify when current uptrend is likely to be over (more information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs)
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Trend Trade Filter: strategy uses Alligator and Fractal combination as high probability trend filter.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
1.Current candle's high shall be below the Williams Alligator's lines (Jaw, Lips, Teeth)(all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
2.Price shall create the candlestick pattern "Bullish Reversal Bar". Optionally if MFI and AO filters are enabled current candle shall have the decreasing AO and at least one of three recent bars shall have the squat state on the MFI (all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph)
3.If price breaks through the high of the candle marked as the "Bullish Reversal Bar" the long trade is open at the price one tick above the candle's high
4.Initial stop loss is placed at the Bullish Reversal Bar's candle's low
5.If price hit the Bullish Reversal Bar's low before hitting the entry price potential trade is cancelled
6.If trade is active and initial stop loss has not been hit, trade is closed when the combination of Alligator and Williams Fractals shall consider current trend change from upward to downward.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup strategy setting:
Enable MFI (if true trades are filtered using Market Facilitation Index (MFI) condition all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph), by default = false)
Enable AO (if true trades are filtered using Awesome Oscillator (AO) condition all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph), by default = false)
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. The first and key concept is the Bullish Reversal Bar candlestick pattern. This is just the single bar pattern. The rules are simple:
Candle shall be closed in it's upper half
High of this candle shall be below all three Alligator's lines (Jaw, Lips, Teeth)
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
How we can use all these indicators in this strategy? This strategy is a counter trend one. Candle's high shall be below all Alligator's lines. During this market stage the bullish reversal bar candlestick pattern shall be printed. This bar during the downtrend is a high probability setup for the potential reversal to the upside: bulls were able to close the price in the upper half of a candle. The breaking of its high is a high probability signal that trend change is confirmed and script opens long trade. If market continues going down and break down the bullish reversal bar's low potential trend change has been invalidated and strategy close long trade.
If market really reversed and started moving to the upside strategy waits for the trend change form the downtrend to the uptrend according to approximation of Alligator and Fractals combination. If this change happens strategy close the trade. This approach helps to stay in the long trade while the uptrend continuation is likely and close it if there is a high probability of the uptrend finish.
Optionally users can enable MFI and AO filters. First of all, let's briefly explain what are these two indicators. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), created by Bill Williams, is a momentum-based indicator that evaluates market momentum by comparing recent price activity to a broader historical context. It assists traders in identifying potential trend reversals and gauging trend strength.
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
This indicator is filtering signals in the following way: if current AO bar is decreasing this candle can be interpreted as a bullish reversal bar. This logic is applicable because initially this strategy is a trend reversal, it is searching for the high probability setup against the current trend. Decreasing AO is the additional high probability filter of a downtrend.
Let's briefly look what is MFI. The Market Facilitation Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the price movement per unit of volume, helping traders gauge the efficiency of price movement in relation to trading volume. Here's how you can calculate it:
MFI = (High−Low)/Volume
MFI can be used in combination with volume, so we can divide 4 states. Bill Williams introduced these to help traders interpret the interaction between volume and price movement. Here’s a quick summary:
Green Window (Increased MFI & Increased Volume): Indicates strong momentum with both price and volume increasing. Often a sign of trend continuation, as both buying and selling interest are rising.
Fake Window (Increased MFI & Decreased Volume): Shows that price is moving but with lower volume, suggesting weak support for the trend. This can signal a potential end of the current trend.
Squat Window (Decreased MFI & Increased Volume): Shows high volume but little price movement, indicating a tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. This often precedes a breakout as the pressure builds.
Fade Window (Decreased MFI & Decreased Volume): Indicates a lack of interest from both buyers and sellers, leading to lower momentum. This typically happens in range-bound markets and may signal consolidation before a new move.
For our purposes we are interested in squat bars. This is the sign that volume cannot move the price easily. This type of bar increases the probability of trend reversal. In this indicator we added to enable the MFI filter of reversal bars. If potential reversal bar or two preceding bars have squat state this bar can be interpret as a reversal one.

Each level has a specific color for easy identification:
HOD: White.
LOD: Purple.
PDH: Orange.
PDL: Blue.
PMH: Green.
PML: Red.
Defines Trading Rules:
Uses conditions with ta.crossover and ta.crossunder to detect when the price crosses key levels.
Long Entry: If the price crosses above the PMH or PDH, a long position (buy) is opened.
Short Entry: If the price crosses below the PML or PDL, a short position (sell) is opened.
Long Exit: If the price reaches the HOD during a long position, the position is closed.
Short Exit: If the price reaches the LOD during a short position, the position is closed.

This script avoids the use of traditional indicators like RSI, MACD, or Bollinger Bands, offering a clean, uncluttered chart.
Risk Management (Optional):
Fixed-percentage risk management options can also be enabled, ensuring trades remain within acceptable risk parameters.
How the Strategy Works
Entry Conditions:
Buy Entry: A bullish candlestick pattern (e.g., bullish engulfing) forms after a period of consolidation or pullback, indicating potential upward momentum.
Sell Entry: A bearish candlestick pattern (e.g., bearish engulfing) suggests a downturn is likely.
Exit Conditions:
Exits are triggered by the appearance of reversal candlestick patterns or through predefined SL/TP levels.
The strategy adapts to varying market conditions by analyzing candlestick structures dynamically.
Ideal Use Cases
Short-Term Trading: Designed for day traders and scalpers targeting quick moves on shorter timeframes.
Highly Liquid Markets: Performs best in markets with high liquidity, such as Nifty, Bank Nifty, or major forex pairs, where candlestick patterns provide reliable signals.

Triple CCI Strategy MFI Confirmed [Skyrexio]Overview
Triple CCI Strategy MFI Confirmed leverages 3 different periods Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator in conjunction Money Flow Index (MFI) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to obtain the high probability setups. Fast period CCI is used for having the high probability to enter in the direction of short term trend, middle and slow period CCI are used for confirmation, if market now likely in the mid and long-term uptrend. MFI is used to confirm trade with the money inflow/outflow with the high probability. EMA is used as an additional trend filter. Moreover, strategy uses exponential moving average (EMA) to trail the price when it reaches the specific level. More information in "Methodology" and "Justification of Methodology" paragraphs. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
Dynamic stop-loss system: Instead of fixed stop-loss level strategy utilizes average true range (ATR) multiplied by user given number subtracted from the position entry price as a dynamic stop loss level.
Configurable Trading Periods: Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Four layers trade filtering system: Strategy utilizes two different period CCI indicators, MFI and EMA indicators to confirm the signals produced by fast period CCI.
Trailing take profit level: After reaching the trailing profit activation level scrip activate the trailing of long trade using EMA. More information in methodology.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
Fast period CCI shall crossover the zero-line.
Slow and Middle period CCI shall be above zero-lines.
Price shall close above the EMA. Crossover is not obligatory
MFI shall be above 50
When long trade is executed, strategy set the stop-loss level at the price ATR multiplied by user-given value below the entry price. This level is recalculated on every next candle close, adjusting to the current market volatility.
At the same time strategy set up the trailing stop validation level. When the price crosses the level equals entry price plus ATR multiplied by user-given value script starts to trail the price with EMA. If price closes below EMA long trade is closed. When the trailing starts, script prints the label “Trailing Activated”.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.75)
ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level (by default = 2.25)
CCI Fast Length (by default = 14, used for calculation short term period CCI)
CCI Middle Length (by default = 25, used for calculation short term period CCI)
CCI Slow Length (by default = 50, used for calculation long term period CCI)
MFI Length (by default = 14, used for calculation MFI
EMA Length (by default = 50, period of EMA, used for trend filtering EMA calculation)
Trailing EMA Length (by default = 20)
User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Before understanding why this particular combination of indicator has been chosen let's briefly explain what is CCI, MFI and EMA.
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is a momentum-based technical indicator that measures the deviation of a security's price from its average price over a specific period. It helps traders identify overbought or oversold conditions and potential trend reversals.
The CCI formula is:
CCI = (Typical Price − SMA) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation)
Typical Price (TP): This is calculated as the average of the high, low, and closing prices for the period.
Simple Moving Average (SMA): This is the average of the Typical Prices over a specific number of periods.
Mean Deviation: This is the average of the absolute differences between the Typical Price and the SMA.
The result is a value that typically fluctuates between +100 and -100, though it is not bounded and can go higher or lower depending on the price movement.
The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the strength of money flowing into and out of a security. It combines price and volume data to assess buying and selling pressure and is often used to identify overbought or oversold conditions. The formula for MFI involves several steps:
1. Calculate the Typical Price (TP):
TP = (high + low + close) / 3
2. Calculate the Raw Money Flow (RMF):
Raw Money Flow = TP × Volume
3. Determine Positive and Negative Money Flow:
If the current TP is greater than the previous TP, it's Positive Money Flow.
If the current TP is less than the previous TP, it's Negative Money Flow.
4. Calculate the Money Flow Ratio (MFR):
Money Flow Ratio = Sum of Positive Money Flow (over n periods) / Sum of Negative Money Flow (over n periods)
5. Calculate the Money Flow Index (MFI):
MFI = 100 − (100 / (1 + Money Flow Ratio))
MFI above 80 can be considered as overbought, below 20 - oversold.
The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a type of moving average that places greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. It is widely used in technical analysis to smooth price data and identify trends more quickly than the Simple Moving Average (SMA).
Formula:
1. Calculate the multiplier
Multiplier = 2 / (n + 1) , Where n is the number of periods.
2. EMA Calculation
EMA = (Current Price) × Multiplier + (Previous EMA) × (1 − Multiplier)
This strategy leverages Fast period CCI, which shall break the zero line to the upside to say that probability of short term trend change to the upside increased. This zero line crossover shall be confirmed by the Middle and Slow periods CCI Indicators. At the moment of breakout these two CCIs shall be above 0, indicating that there is a high probability that price is in middle and long term uptrend. This approach increases chances to have a long trade setup in the direction of mid-term and long-term trends when the short-term trend starts to reverse to the upside.
Additionally strategy uses MFI to have a greater probability that fast CCI breakout is confirmed by this indicator. We consider the values of MFI above 50 as a higher probability that trend change from downtrend to the uptrend is real. Script opens long trades only if MFI is above 50. As you already know from the MFI description, it incorporates volume in its calculation, therefore we have another one confirmation factor.
Finally, strategy uses EMA an additional trend filter. It allows to open long trades only if price close above EMA (by default 50 period). It increases the probability of taking long trades only in the direction of the trend.
ATR is used to adjust the strategy risk management to the current market volatility. If volatility is low, we don’t need the large stop loss to understand the there is a high probability that we made a mistake opening the trade. User can setup the settings ATR Stop Loss and ATR Trailing Profit Activation Level to realize his own risk to reward preferences, but the unique feature of a strategy is that after reaching trailing profit activation level strategy is trying to follow the trend until it is likely to be finished instead of using fixed risk management settings. It allows sometimes to be involved in the large movements. It’s also important to make a note, that script uses another one EMA (by default = 20 period) as a trailing profit level.

If you have any questions, let me know, and I'll help make this as effective as possible.
█ Introduction and How It Is Different
The Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy is an advanced trading approach that uniquely integrates Fibonacci-based weighted averages with the Average True Range (ATR) to identify and capitalize on significant market trends.
Unlike traditional strategies that rely on single indicators or static parameters, this method combines multiple timeframes and dynamic volatility measurements to enhance precision and adaptability. Additionally, it features a 4-step Take Profit (TP) mechanism, allowing for systematic profit-taking at various levels, which optimizes both risk management and return potential in long and short market positions.
BTCUSD 6hr Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy utilizes a combination of technical indicators and weighted averages to determine optimal entry and exit points. Below is a breakdown of its key components and operational logic.
🔶 1. Enhanced True Range Calculation
The strategy begins by calculating the True Range (TR) to measure market volatility accurately.
TR = max(High - Low, abs(High - Previous Close), abs(Low - Previous Close))
High and Low: Highest and lowest prices of the current trading period.
Previous Close: Closing price of the preceding trading period.
max: Selects the largest value among the three calculations to account for gaps and limit movements.
🔶 2. Buying Pressure (BP) Calculation
Buying Pressure (BP) quantifies the extent to which buyers are driving the price upwards within a period.
BP = Close - True Low
Close: Current period's closing price.
True Low: The lower boundary determined in the True Range calculation.
🔶 3. Ratio Calculation for Different Periods
To assess the strength of buying pressure relative to volatility, the strategy calculates a ratio over various Fibonacci-based timeframes.
Ratio = 100 * (Sum of BP over n periods) / (Sum of TR over n periods)
n: Length of the period (e.g., 8, 13, 21, 34, 55).
Sum of BP: Cumulative Buying Pressure over n periods.
Sum of TR: Cumulative True Range over n periods.
This ratio normalizes buying pressure, making it comparable across different timeframes.
🔶 4. Weighted Average Calculation
The strategy employs a weighted average of ratios from multiple Fibonacci-based periods to smooth out signals and enhance trend detection.
Weighted Avg = (w1 * Ratio_p1 + w2 * Ratio_p2 + w3 * Ratio_p3 + w4 * Ratio_p4 + Ratio_p5) / (w1 + w2 + w3 + w4 + 1)
w1, w2, w3, w4: Weights assigned to each ratio period.
Ratio_p1 to Ratio_p5: Ratios calculated for periods p1 to p5 (e.g., 8, 13, 21, 34, 55).
This weighted approach emphasizes shorter periods more heavily, capturing recent market dynamics while still considering longer-term trends.
🔶 5. Simple Moving Average (SMA) of Weighted Average
To further smooth the weighted average and reduce noise, a Simple Moving Average (SMA) is applied.
Weighted Avg SMA = SMA(Weighted Avg, m)
- m: SMA period (e.g., 3).
This smoothed line serves as the primary signal generator for trade entries and exits.
🔶 6. Trading Condition Thresholds
The strategy defines specific threshold values to determine optimal entry and exit points based on crossovers and crossunders of the SMA.
Long Condition = Crossover(Weighted Avg SMA, Long Entry Threshold)
Short Condition = Crossunder(Weighted Avg SMA, Short Entry Threshold)
Long Exit = Crossunder(Weighted Avg SMA, Long Exit Threshold)
Short Exit = Crossover(Weighted Avg SMA, Short Exit Threshold)
Long Entry Threshold (T_LE): Level at which a long position is triggered.
Short Entry Threshold (T_SE): Level at which a short position is triggered.
Long Exit Threshold (T_LX): Level at which a long position is exited.
Short Exit Threshold (T_SX): Level at which a short position is exited.
These conditions ensure that trades are only executed when clear trends are identified, enhancing the strategy's reliability.
Previous local performance
🔶 7. ATR-Based Take Profit Mechanism
When enabled, the strategy employs a 4-step Take Profit system to systematically secure profits as the trade moves in the desired direction.
TP Price_1 Long = Entry Price + (TP1ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_2 Long = Entry Price + (TP2ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_3 Long = Entry Price + (TP3ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_1 Short = Entry Price - (TP1ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_2 Short = Entry Price - (TP2ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_3 Short = Entry Price - (TP3ATR * ATR Value)
- ATR Value: Calculated using ATR over a specified period (e.g., 14).
- TPxATR: User-defined multipliers for each take profit level.
- TPx_percent: Percentage of the position to exit at each TP level.
This multi-tiered exit strategy allows for partial position closures, optimizing profit capture while maintaining exposure to potential further gains.
█ Trade Direction
The Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy is designed to operate in both long and short market conditions, providing flexibility to traders in varying market environments.
Long Trades: Initiated when the SMA of the weighted average crosses above the Long Entry Threshold (T_LE), indicating strong upward momentum.
Short Trades: Initiated when the SMA of the weighted average crosses below the Short Entry Threshold (T_SE), signaling robust downward momentum.
Additionally, the strategy can be configured to trade exclusively in one direction—Long, Short, or Both—based on the trader’s preference and market analysis.
█ Usage
Implementing the Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy involves several steps to ensure it aligns with your trading objectives and market conditions.
1. Configure Strategy Parameters:
- Trading Direction: Choose between Long, Short, or Both based on your market outlook.
- Trading Condition Thresholds: Set the Long Entry, Short Entry, Long Exit, and Short Exit thresholds to define when to enter and exit trades.
2. Set Take Profit Levels (if enabled):
- ATR Multipliers: Define how many ATRs away from the entry price each take profit level is set.
- Take Profit Percentages: Allocate what percentage of the position to close at each TP level.
3. Apply to Desired Chart:
- Add the strategy to the chart of the asset you wish to trade.
- Observe the plotted Fibonacci ATR and SMA Fibonacci ATR indicators for visual confirmation.
4. Monitor and Adjust:
- Regularly review the strategy’s performance through backtesting.
- Adjust the input parameters based on historical performance and changing market dynamics.
5. Risk Management:
- Ensure that the sum of take profit percentages does not exceed 100% to avoid over-closing positions.
- Utilize the ATR-based TP levels to adapt to varying market volatilities, maintaining a balanced risk-reward ratio.
█ Default Settings
Understanding the default settings is crucial for optimizing the Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy's performance. Here's a precise and simple overview of the key parameters and their effects:
🔶 Key Parameters and Their Effects
1. Trading Direction (`tradingDirection`)
- Default: Both
- Effect: Determines whether the strategy takes both long and short positions or restricts to one direction. Selecting Both allows maximum flexibility, while Long or Short can be used for directional bias.
2. Trading Condition Thresholds
Long Entry (long_entry_threshold = 58.0): Higher values reduce false positives but may miss trades.
Short Entry (short_entry_threshold = 42.0): Lower values capture early short trends but may increase false signals.
Long Exit (long_exit_threshold = 42.0): Exits long positions early, securing profits but potentially cutting trends short.
Short Exit (short_exit_threshold = 58.0): Delays short exits to capture favorable movements, avoiding premature exits.
3. Take Profit Configuration (`useTakeProfit` = false)
- Effect: When enabled, the strategy employs a 4-step TP mechanism to secure profits at multiple levels. By default, it is disabled to allow users to opt-in based on their trading style.
4. ATR-Based Take Profit Multipliers
TP1 (tp1ATR = 3.0): Sets the first TP at 3 ATRs for initial profit capture.
TP2 (tp2ATR = 8.0): Targets larger trends, though less likely to be reached.
TP3 (tp3ATR = 14.0): Optimizes for extreme price moves, seldom triggered.
5. Take Profit Percentages
TP Level 1 (tp1_percent = 12%): Secures 12% at the first TP.
TP Level 2 (tp2_percent = 12%): Exits another 12% at the second TP.
TP Level 3 (tp3_percent = 12%): Closes an additional 12% at the third TP.
6. Weighted Average Parameters
Ratio Periods: Fibonacci-based intervals (8, 13, 21, 34, 55) balance responsiveness.
Weights: Emphasizes recent data for timely responses to market trends.
SMA Period (weighted_avg_sma_period = 3): Smoothens data with minimal lag, balancing noise reduction and responsiveness.
7. ATR Period (`atrPeriod` = 14)
Effect: Sets the ATR calculation length, impacting TP sensitivity to volatility.
🔶 Impact on Performance
- Sensitivity and Responsiveness:
- Shorter Ratio Periods and Higher Weights: Make the weighted average more responsive to recent price changes, allowing quicker trade entries and exits but increasing the likelihood of false signals.
- Longer Ratio Periods and Lower Weights: Provide smoother signals with fewer false positives but may delay trade entries, potentially missing out on significant price moves.
- Profit Taking:
- ATR Multipliers: Higher multipliers set take profit levels further away, targeting larger price movements but reducing the probability of reaching these levels.
- Fixed Percentages: Allocating equal percentages at each TP level ensures consistent profit realization and risk management, preventing overexposure.
- Trade Direction Control:
- Selecting Specific Directions: Restricting trades to Long or Short can align the strategy with market trends or personal biases, potentially enhancing performance in trending markets.
- Risk Management:
- Take Profit Percentages: Dividing the position into smaller percentages at multiple TP levels helps lock in profits progressively, reducing risk and allowing the remaining position to ride further trends.
- Market Adaptability:
- Weighted Averages and ATR: By combining multiple timeframes and adjusting to volatility, the strategy adapts to different market conditions, maintaining effectiveness across various asset classes and timeframes.

SuperATR 7-Step Profit - Strategy [presentTrading] Long time no see!
█ Introduction and How It Is Different
The SuperATR 7-Step Profit Strategy is a multi-layered trading approach that integrates adaptive Average True Range (ATR) calculations with momentum-based trend detection. What sets this strategy apart is its sophisticated 7-step take-profit mechanism, which combines four ATR-based exit levels and three fixed percentage levels. This hybrid approach allows traders to dynamically adjust to market volatility while systematically capturing profits in both long and short market positions.
Traditional trading strategies often rely on static indicators or single-layered exit strategies, which may not adapt well to changing market conditions. The SuperATR 7-Step Profit Strategy addresses this limitation by:
- Using Adaptive ATR: Enhances the standard ATR by making it responsive to current market momentum.
- Incorporating Momentum-Based Trend Detection: Identifies stronger trends with higher probability of continuation.
- Employing a Multi-Step Take-Profit System: Allows for gradual profit-taking at predetermined levels, optimizing returns while minimizing risk.
BTCUSD 6hr Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The strategy revolves around detecting strong market trends and capitalizing on them using an adaptive ATR and momentum indicators. Below is a detailed breakdown of each component of the strategy.
🔶 1. True Range Calculation with Enhanced Volatility Detection
The True Range (TR) measures market volatility by considering the most significant price movements. The enhanced TR is calculated as:
TR = Max
Where:
High and Low are the current bar's high and low prices.
Previous Close is the closing price of the previous bar.
Abs denotes the absolute value.
Max selects the maximum value among the three calculations.
🔶 2. Momentum Factor Calculation
To make the ATR adaptive, the strategy incorporates a Momentum Factor (MF), which adjusts the ATR based on recent price movements.
Momentum = Close - Close
Stdev_Close = Standard Deviation of Close over n periods
Normalized_Momentum = Momentum / Stdev_Close (if Stdev_Close ≠ 0)
Momentum_Factor = Abs(Normalized_Momentum)
Where:
Close is the current closing price.
n is the momentum_period, a user-defined input (default is 7).
Standard Deviation measures the dispersion of closing prices over n periods.
Abs ensures the momentum factor is always positive.
🔶 3. Adaptive ATR Calculation
The Adaptive ATR (AATR) adjusts the traditional ATR based on the Momentum Factor, making it more responsive during volatile periods and smoother during consolidation.
Short_ATR = SMA(True Range, short_period)
Long_ATR = SMA(True Range, long_period)
Adaptive_ATR = /
Where:
SMA is the Simple Moving Average.
short_period and long_period are user-defined inputs (defaults are 3 and 7, respectively).
🔶 4. Trend Strength Calculation
The strategy quantifies the strength of the trend to filter out weak signals.
Price_Change = Close - Close
ATR_Multiple = Price_Change / Adaptive_ATR (if Adaptive_ATR ≠ 0)
Trend_Strength = SMA(ATR_Multiple, n)
🔶 5. Trend Signal Determination
If (Short_MA > Long_MA) AND (Trend_Strength > Trend_Strength_Threshold):
Trend_Signal = 1 (Strong Uptrend)
Elif (Short_MA < Long_MA) AND (Trend_Strength < -Trend_Strength_Threshold):
Trend_Signal = -1 (Strong Downtrend)
Else:
Trend_Signal = 0 (No Clear Trend)
🔶 6. Trend Confirmation with Price Action
Adaptive_ATR_SMA = SMA(Adaptive_ATR, atr_sma_period)
If (Trend_Signal == 1) AND (Close > Short_MA) AND (Adaptive_ATR > Adaptive_ATR_SMA):
Trend_Confirmed = True
Elif (Trend_Signal == -1) AND (Close < Short_MA) AND (Adaptive_ATR > Adaptive_ATR_SMA):
Trend_Confirmed = True
Else:
Trend_Confirmed = False

Velocity/Volatility/Volume StrategyThe "Vel/Vty/Vol Strategy" is a momentum-based trading approach designed to take advantage of strong price movements that are confirmed by both volatility and volume (if enabled). It provides a high level of customization, allowing traders to adjust various settings based on market conditions and individual preferences. By combining three critical indicators—velocity, volatility (measured through Bollinger Band Width), and an optional volume filter—the strategy generates trade signals for both long and short positions. Here’s a comprehensive explanation of how the strategy works, how the parameters can be customized, and how those adjustments benefit users.
At its core, the strategy focuses on velocity, which measures the speed at which price is changing over time. This is a key indicator of momentum, with a "StrongUp" signal indicating bullish momentum and a "StrongDown" signal suggesting bearish momentum. In addition to velocity, the strategy factors in acceleration, which helps gauge whether momentum is building or weakening. The second essential component is Bollinger Band Width (BBW), which measures volatility in the market. When the BBW expands, it signals increasing volatility, a condition that must be met in combination with a velocity signal to generate a trade. Lastly, the strategy includes an optional Volume Oscillator to filter trades. When this volume filter is enabled, trades will only be executed if there’s an increase in volume, further validating market activity.
The strategy generates long and short trade signals based on specific conditions. A long trade is triggered when there is a strong upward velocity, accompanied by an increase in Bollinger Band Width, indicating both momentum and heightened volatility. If the volume filter is toggled on, a rise in volume must also confirm the signal. Similarly, a short trade is initiated when a strong downward velocity is detected, again paired with an increase in volatility and, optionally, a volume rise. This ensures that trades occur during periods of heightened market activity, reducing the likelihood of false signals.
To help manage risk, the strategy includes several customizable tools. Users can set take profit levels to automatically close positions and lock in gains once a predefined profit percentage is reached. For example, if a 2% take profit is set, a long position will be closed once the price has risen by 2%. Additionally, a trailing take profit option can be enabled, allowing the strategy to dynamically adjust the take-profit target as the market moves in the user’s favor. This ensures that profits are locked in as long as the market continues to trend positively, while providing protection in case of a reversal. The strategy also includes a trailing stop-loss feature, which adjusts the stop price as the market moves in favor of the trade, helping to minimize losses and protect gains.
The strategy offers a variety of parameters that can be customized to suit different trading styles and market conditions. The velocity lookback period controls how far back the strategy looks to calculate velocity. A shorter lookback makes the strategy more sensitive to recent price changes, generating more signals, which can benefit day traders or those seeking to capture short-term price swings. Conversely, a longer lookback smooths out the velocity calculation, reducing false signals and making the strategy more suitable for traders seeking to capture larger trends. Similarly, the Bollinger Band Width (BBW) length can be adjusted to control how far back the strategy looks to calculate volatility. A shorter BBW length makes the strategy more sensitive to volatility spikes, useful in rapidly changing markets. In contrast, a longer BBW length filters out short-term noise and focuses on more sustainable volatility shifts, better suited for slower, more stable markets.
The volume filter is another powerful feature that can be toggled on or off. When turned on, the strategy will only execute trades if there is an increase in volume alongside velocity and volatility signals. This helps filter out false signals in low-volume markets, ensuring that price movements are supported by actual market activity. If the volume filter is turned off, the strategy focuses purely on price and volatility changes, which can be useful in markets where volume data is unreliable or less relevant.
The take profit percentage can be adjusted to define how aggressively or conservatively profits are locked in. A lower take profit percentage allows traders to capture smaller, quicker profits, which can be advantageous in volatile markets. A higher take profit percentage suits traders who prefer to capture larger moves, allowing them to stay in trades longer to benefit from extended trends. Similarly, the trailing take profit percentage determines how tightly the strategy follows market prices as they move in favor of the trade. A tighter trailing percentage ensures that profits are locked in quickly, while a wider trailing percentage gives trades more room to run, ideal for capturing large trends.
The stop loss percentage is another key setting that controls how much risk a trader is willing to take before the position is closed. A tighter stop loss minimizes losses but may result in more frequent stop-outs, particularly in volatile markets. A wider stop loss provides more room for trades to develop, which is useful for traders aiming to capture longer trends despite short-term fluctuations. Additionally, the velocity thresholds can be adjusted to set how sensitive the strategy is to price movements. Lower thresholds increase sensitivity, generating more signals in fast-moving markets, while higher thresholds filter out weaker signals, focusing on larger momentum shifts.
The strategy also allows users to define a time range during which it is active, offering flexibility in backtesting and optimizing for specific market conditions. By limiting the strategy to certain periods, users can tailor it to seasonal trends or historical data that matches their current trading environment.
The flexibility of this strategy makes it suitable for a wide range of traders. Day traders can benefit from adjusting the velocity and BBW lookback periods, tightening take profit and stop loss settings to capture short, fast price movements in highly volatile markets. Trend traders can lengthen the lookback periods and widen the velocity thresholds to capture larger, sustained moves while riding out short-term volatility. Traders with a lower risk tolerance can enable the volume filter and tighten stop losses to reduce false signals and minimize losses. On the other hand, aggressive traders can widen the take profit and trailing stop percentages to allow trades to develop fully, maximizing potential gains in trending markets.
Ultimate Oscillator Trading StrategyThe Ultimate Oscillator Trading Strategy implemented in Pine Script™ is based on the Ultimate Oscillator (UO), a momentum indicator developed by Larry Williams in 1976. The UO is designed to measure price momentum over multiple timeframes, providing a more comprehensive view of market conditions by considering short-term, medium-term, and long-term trends simultaneously. This strategy applies the UO as a mean-reversion tool, seeking to capitalize on temporary deviations from the mean price level in the asset’s movement (Williams, 1976).
Strategy Overview:
Calculation of the Ultimate Oscillator (UO):
The UO combines price action over three different periods (short-term, medium-term, and long-term) to generate a weighted momentum measure. The default settings used in this strategy are:
Short-term: 6 periods (adjustable between 2 and 10).
Medium-term: 14 periods (adjustable between 6 and 14).
Long-term: 20 periods (adjustable between 10 and 20).
The UO is calculated as a weighted average of buying pressure and true range across these periods. The weights are designed to give more emphasis to short-term momentum, reflecting the short-term mean-reversion behavior observed in financial markets (Murphy, 1999).
Entry Conditions:
A long position is opened when the UO value falls below 30, indicating that the asset is potentially oversold. The value of 30 is a common threshold that suggests the price may have deviated significantly from its mean and could be due for a reversal, consistent with mean-reversion theory (Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993).
Exit Conditions:
The long position is closed when the current close price exceeds the previous day’s high. This rule captures the reversal and price recovery, providing a defined point to take profits.
The use of previous highs as exit points aligns with breakout and momentum strategies, as it indicates sufficient strength for a price recovery (Fama, 1970).
Scientific Basis and Rationale:
Momentum and Mean-Reversion:
The strategy leverages two well-established phenomena in financial markets: momentum and mean-reversion. Momentum, identified in earlier studies like those by Jegadeesh and Titman (1993), describes the tendency of assets to continue in their direction of movement over short periods. Mean-reversion, as discussed by Poterba and Summers (1988), indicates that asset prices tend to revert to their mean over time after short-term deviations. This dual approach aims to buy assets when they are temporarily oversold and capitalize on their return to the mean.
Multi-timeframe Analysis:
The UO’s incorporation of multiple timeframes (short, medium, and long) provides a holistic view of momentum, unlike single-period oscillators such as the RSI. By combining data across different timeframes, the UO offers a more robust signal and reduces the risk of false entries often associated with single-period momentum indicators (Murphy, 1999).
Trading and Market Efficiency:
Studies in behavioral finance, such as those by Shiller (2003), show that short-term inefficiencies and behavioral biases can lead to overreactions in the market, resulting in price deviations. This strategy seeks to exploit these temporary inefficiencies, using the UO as a signal to identify potential entry points when the market sentiment may have overly pushed the price away from its average.
Strategy Performance:
Backtests of this strategy show promising results, with profit factors exceeding 2.5 when the default settings are optimized. These results are consistent with other studies on short-term trading strategies that capitalize on mean-reversion patterns (Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993). The use of a dynamic, multi-period indicator like the UO enhances the strategy’s adaptability, making it effective across different market conditions and timeframes.
Conclusion:
The Ultimate Oscillator Trading Strategy effectively combines momentum and mean-reversion principles to trade on temporary market inefficiencies. By utilizing multiple periods in its calculation, the UO provides a more reliable and comprehensive measure of momentum, reducing the likelihood of false signals and increasing the profitability of trades. This aligns with modern financial research, showing that strategies based on mean-reversion and multi-timeframe analysis can be effective in capturing short-term price movements.

Multi-Step FlexiMA - Strategy [presentTrading]It's time to come back! hope I can not to be busy for a while.
█ Introduction and How It Is Different
The FlexiMA Variance Tracker is a unique trading strategy that calculates a series of deviations between the price (or another indicator source) and a variable-length moving average (MA). Unlike traditional strategies that use fixed-length moving averages, the length of the MA in this system varies within a defined range. The length changes dynamically based on a starting factor and an increment factor, creating a more adaptive approach to market conditions.
This strategy integrates Multi-Step Take Profit (TP) levels, allowing for partial exits at predefined price increments. It enables traders to secure profits at different stages of a trend, making it ideal for volatile markets where taking full profits at once might lead to missed opportunities if the trend continues.
BTCUSD 6hr Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
🔶 FlexiMA Concept
The FlexiMA (Flexible Moving Average) is at the heart of this strategy. Unlike traditional MA-based strategies where the MA length is fixed (e.g., a 50-period SMA), the FlexiMA varies its length with each iteration. This is done using a **starting factor** and an **increment factor**.
The formula for the moving average length at each iteration \(i\) is:
`MA_length_i = indicator_length * (starting_factor + i * increment_factor)`
Where:
- `indicator_length` is the user-defined base length.
- `starting_factor` is the initial multiplier of the base length.
- `increment_factor` increases the multiplier in each iteration.
Each iteration applies a **simple moving average** (SMA) to the chosen **indicator source** (e.g., HLC3) with a different length based on the above formula. The deviation between the current price and the moving average is then calculated as follows:
`deviation_i = price_current - MA_i`
These deviations are normalized using one of the following methods:
- **Max-Min normalization**:
`normalized_i = (deviation_i - min(deviations)) / range(deviations)`
- **Absolute Sum normalization**:
`normalized_i = deviation_i / sum(|deviation_i|)`
The **median** and **standard deviation (stdev)** of the normalized deviations are then calculated as follows:
`median = median(normalized deviations)`
For the standard deviation:
`stdev = sqrt((1/(N-1)) * sum((normalized_i - mean)^2))`
These values are plotted to provide a clear indication of how the price is deviating from its variable-length moving averages.
For more detail:
🔶 Multi-Step Take Profit
This strategy uses a multi-step take profit system, allowing for exits at different stages of a trade based on the percentage of price movement. Three take-profit levels are defined:
- Take Profit Level 1 (TP1): A small, quick profit level (e.g., 2%).
- Take Profit Level 2 (TP2): A medium-level profit target (e.g., 8%).
- Take Profit Level 3 (TP3): A larger, more ambitious target (e.g., 18%).
At each level, a corresponding percentage of the trade is exited:
- TP Percent 1: E.g., 30% of the position.
- TP Percent 2: E.g., 20% of the position.
- TP Percent 3: E.g., 15% of the position.
This approach ensures that profits are locked in progressively, reducing the risk of market reversals wiping out potential gains.
Local
🔶 Trade Entry and Exit Conditions
The entry and exit signals are determined by the interaction between the **SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator** and the **median** value of the normalized deviations:
- Long entry: The SuperTrend turns bearish, and the median value of the deviations is positive.
- Short entry: The SuperTrend turns bullish, and the median value is negative.
Similarly, trades are exited when the SuperTrend flips direction.
* The SuperTrend Toolkit is made by @EliCobra
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows users to specify the desired trade direction:
- Long: Only long positions will be taken.
- Short: Only short positions will be taken.
- Both: Both long and short positions are allowed based on the conditions.
This flexibility allows the strategy to adapt to different market conditions and trading styles, whether you're looking to buy low and sell high, or sell high and buy low.
█ Usage
This strategy can be applied across various asset classes, including stocks, cryptocurrencies, and forex. The primary use case is to take advantage of market volatility by using a flexible moving average and multiple take-profit levels to capture profits incrementally as the market moves in your favor.
How to Use:
1. Configure the Inputs: Start by adjusting the **Indicator Length**, **Starting Factor**, and **Increment Factor** to suit your chosen asset. The defaults work well for most markets, but fine-tuning them can improve performance.
2. Set the Take Profit Levels: Adjust the three **TP levels** and their corresponding **percentages** based on your risk tolerance and the expected volatility of the market.
3. Monitor the Strategy: The SuperTrend and the FlexiMA variance tracker will provide entry and exit signals, automatically managing the positions and taking profits at the pre-set levels.
█ Default Settings
The default settings for the strategy are configured to provide a balanced approach that works across different market conditions:
Indicator Length (10):
This controls the base length for the moving average. A lower length makes the moving average more responsive to price changes, while a higher length smooths out fluctuations, making the strategy less sensitive to short-term price movements.
Starting Factor (1.0):
This determines the initial multiplier applied to the moving average length. A higher starting factor will increase the average length, making it slower to react to price changes.
Increment Factor (1.0):
This increases the moving average length in each iteration. A larger increment factor creates a wider range of moving average lengths, allowing the strategy to track both short-term and long-term trends simultaneously.
Normalization Method ('None'):
Three methods of normalization can be applied to the deviations:
- None: No normalization applied, using raw deviations.
- Max-Min: Normalizes based on the range between the maximum and minimum deviations.
- Absolute Sum: Normalizes based on the total sum of absolute deviations.
Take Profit Levels:
- TP1 (2%): A quick exit to capture small price movements.
- TP2 (8%): A medium-term profit target for stronger trends.
- TP3 (18%): A long-term target for strong price moves.
Take Profit Percentages:
- TP Percent 1 (30%): Exits 30% of the position at TP1.
- TP Percent 2 (20%): Exits 20% of the position at TP2.
- TP Percent 3 (15%): Exits 15% of the position at TP3.
Effect of Variables on Performance:
- Short Indicator Lengths: More responsive to price changes but prone to false signals.
- Higher Starting Factor: Slows down the response, useful for longer-term trend following.
- Higher Increment Factor: Widens the variability in moving average lengths, making the strategy adapt to both short-term and long-term price trends.
- Aggressive Take Profit Levels: Allows for quick profit-taking in volatile markets but may exit positions prematurely in strong trends.
The default configuration offers a moderate balance between short-term responsiveness and long-term trend capturing, suitable for most traders. However, users can adjust these variables to optimize performance based on market conditions and personal preferences.
ETH Signal 15m
This strategy uses the Supertrend indicator combined with RSI to generate buy and sell signals, with stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) conditions based on ATR (Average True Range). Below is a detailed explanation of each part:
1. General Information BINANCE:ETHUSDT.P
Strategy Name: "ETH Signal 15m"
Designed for use on the 15-minute time frame for the ETH pair.
Default capital allocation is 15% of total equity for each trade.
2. Backtest Period
start_time and end_time: Define the start and end time of the backtest period.
start_time = 2024-08-01: Start date of the backtest.
end_time = 2054-01-01: End date of the backtest.
The strategy will only run when the current time falls within this specified range.
3. Supertrend Indicator
Supertrend is a trend-following indicator that provides buy or sell signals based on the direction of price changes.
factor = 2.76: The multiplier used in the Supertrend calculation (increasing this value makes the Supertrend less sensitive to price movements).
atrPeriod = 12: Number of periods used to calculate ATR.
Output:
direction: Determines the buy/sell direction based on Supertrend.
If direction decreases, it signals a buy (Long).
If direction increases, it signals a sell (Short).
4. RSI Indicator
RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a momentum indicator, often used to identify overbought or oversold conditions.
rsiLength = 12: Number of periods used to calculate RSI.
rsiOverbought = 70: RSI level considered overbought.
rsiOversold = 30: RSI level considered oversold.
5. Entry Conditions
Long Entry:
Supertrend gives a buy signal (ta.change(direction) < 0).
RSI must be below the overbought level (rsi < rsiOverbought).
Short Entry:
Supertrend gives a sell signal (ta.change(direction) > 0).
RSI must be above the oversold level (rsi > rsiOversold).
The strategy will only execute trades if the current time is within the backtest period (in_date_range).
6. Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) Conditions
ATR (Average True Range) is used to calculate the distance for Stop Loss and Take Profit based on price volatility.
atr = ta.atr(atrPeriod): ATR is calculated using 12 periods.
Stop Loss and Take Profit are calculated as follows:
Long Trade:
Stop Loss: Set at close - 4 * atr (current price minus 4 times the ATR).
Take Profit: Set at close + 2 * atr (current price plus 2 times the ATR).
Short Trade:
Stop Loss: Set at close + 4 * atr (current price plus 4 times the ATR).
Take Profit: Set at close - 2.237 * atr (current price minus 2.237 times the ATR).
Summary:
This strategy enters a Long trade when the Supertrend indicates an upward trend and RSI is not in the overbought region. Conversely, a Short trade is entered when Supertrend signals a downtrend, and RSI is not oversold.
The trade is exited when the price reaches the Stop Loss or Take Profit levels, which are determined based on price volatility (ATR).

Multi-Step FlexiSuperTrend - Strategy [presentTrading]At the heart of this endeavor is a passion for continuous improvement in the art of trading
█ Introduction and How it is Different
The "Multi-Step FlexiSuperTrend - Strategy " is an advanced trading strategy that integrates the well-known SuperTrend indicator with a nuanced and dynamic approach to market trend analysis. Unlike conventional SuperTrend strategies that rely on static thresholds and fixed parameters, this strategy introduces multi-step take profit mechanisms that allow traders to capitalize on varying market conditions in a more controlled and systematic manner.
What sets this strategy apart is its ability to dynamically adjust to market volatility through the use of an incremental factor applied to the SuperTrend calculation. This adjustment ensures that the strategy remains responsive to both minor and major market shifts, providing a more accurate signal for entries and exits. Additionally, the integration of multi-step take profit levels offers traders the flexibility to scale out of positions, locking in profits progressively as the market moves in their favor.

█ Strategy, How it Works: Detailed Explanation
The Multi-Step FlexiSuperTrend strategy operates on the foundation of the SuperTrend indicator, but with several enhancements that make it more adaptable to varying market conditions. The key components of this strategy include the SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator, a dynamic normalization process, and multi-step take profit levels.
🔶 SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator
The SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator is the heart of this strategy. It is calculated by applying a series of SuperTrend calculations with varying factors, starting from a defined "Starting Factor" and incrementing by a specified "Increment Factor." The indicator length and the chosen price source (e.g., HLC3, HL2) are inputs to the oscillator.
The SuperTrend formula typically calculates an upper and lower band based on the average true range (ATR) and a multiplier (the factor). These bands determine the trend direction. In the FlexiSuperTrend strategy, the oscillator is enhanced by iteratively applying the SuperTrend calculation across different factors. The iterative process allows the strategy to capture both minor and significant trend changes.
For each iteration (indexed by `i`), the following calculations are performed:
1. ATR Calculation: The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated over the specified `indicatorLength`:
ATR_i = ATR(indicatorLength)
2. Upper and Lower Bands Calculation: The upper and lower bands are calculated using the ATR and the current factor:
Upper Band_i = hl2 + (ATR_i * Factor_i)
Lower Band_i = hl2 - (ATR_i * Factor_i)
Here, `Factor_i` starts from `startingFactor` and is incremented by `incrementFactor` in each iteration.
3. Trend Determination: The trend is determined by comparing the indicator source with the upper and lower bands:
Trend_i = 1 (uptrend) if IndicatorSource > Upper Band_i
Trend_i = 0 (downtrend) if IndicatorSource < Lower Band_i
Otherwise, the trend remains unchanged from the previous value.
4. Output Calculation: The output of each iteration is determined based on the trend:
Output_i = Lower Band_i if Trend_i = 1
Output_i = Upper Band_i if Trend_i = 0
This process is repeated for each iteration (from 0 to 19), creating a series of outputs that reflect different levels of trend sensitivity.

🔶 Normalization Process
To make the oscillator values comparable across different market conditions, the deviations between the indicator source and the SuperTrend outputs are normalized. The normalization method can be one of the following:
1. Max-Min Normalization: The deviations are normalized based on the range of the deviations:
Normalized Value_i = (Deviation_i - Min Deviation) / (Max Deviation - Min Deviation)
2. Absolute Sum Normalization: The deviations are normalized based on the sum of absolute deviations:
Normalized Value_i = Deviation_i / Sum of Absolute Deviations
This normalization ensures that the oscillator values are within a consistent range, facilitating more reliable trend analysis.

🔶 Multi-Step Take Profit Mechanism
One of the unique features of this strategy is the multi-step take profit mechanism. This allows traders to lock in profits at multiple levels as the market moves in their favor. The strategy uses three take profit levels, each defined as a percentage increase (for long trades) or decrease (for short trades) from the entry price.
1. First Take Profit Level: Calculated as a percentage increase/decrease from the entry price:
TP_Level1 = Entry Price * (1 + tp_level1 / 100) for long trades
TP_Level1 = Entry Price * (1 - tp_level1 / 100) for short trades
The strategy exits a portion of the position (defined by `tp_percent1`) when this level is reached.
2. Second Take Profit Level: Similar to the first level, but with a higher percentage:
TP_Level2 = Entry Price * (1 + tp_level2 / 100) for long trades
TP_Level2 = Entry Price * (1 - tp_level2 / 100) for short trades
The strategy exits another portion of the position (`tp_percent2`) at this level.
3. Third Take Profit Level: The final take profit level:
TP_Level3 = Entry Price * (1 + tp_level3 / 100) for long trades
TP_Level3 = Entry Price * (1 - tp_level3 / 100) for short trades
The remaining portion of the position (`tp_percent3`) is exited at this level.
This multi-step approach provides a balance between securing profits and allowing the remaining position to benefit from continued favorable market movement.
█ Trade Direction
The strategy allows traders to specify the trade direction through the `tradeDirection` input. The options are:
1. Both: The strategy will take both long and short positions based on the entry signals.
2. Long: The strategy will only take long positions.
3. Short: The strategy will only take short positions.
This flexibility enables traders to tailor the strategy to their market outlook or current trend analysis.
█ Usage
To use the Multi-Step FlexiSuperTrend strategy, traders need to set the input parameters according to their trading style and market conditions. The strategy is designed for versatility, allowing for various market environments, including trending and ranging markets.
Traders can also adjust the multi-step take profit levels and percentages to match their risk management and profit-taking preferences. For example, in highly volatile markets, traders might set wider take profit levels with smaller percentages at each level to capture larger price movements.
The normalization method and the incremental factor can be fine-tuned to adjust the sensitivity of the SuperTrend Polyfactor Oscillator, making the strategy more responsive to minor market shifts or more focused on significant trends.
█ Default Settings
The default settings of the strategy are carefully chosen to provide a balanced approach between risk management and profit potential. Here is a breakdown of the default settings and their effects on performance:
1. Indicator Length (10): This parameter controls the lookback period for the ATR calculation. A shorter length makes the strategy more sensitive to recent price movements, potentially generating more signals. A longer length smooths out the ATR, reducing sensitivity but filtering out noise.
2. Starting Factor (0.618): This is the initial multiplier used in the SuperTrend calculation. A lower starting factor makes the SuperTrend bands closer to the price, generating more frequent trend changes. A higher starting factor places the bands further away, filtering out minor fluctuations.
3. Increment Factor (0.382): This parameter controls how much the factor increases with each iteration of the SuperTrend calculation. A smaller increment factor results in more gradual changes in sensitivity, while a larger increment factor creates a wider range of sensitivity across the iterations.
4. Normalization Method (None): The default is no normalization, meaning the raw deviations are used. Normalization methods like Max-Min or Absolute Sum can make the deviations more consistent across different market conditions, improving the reliability of the oscillator.
5. Take Profit Levels (2%, 8%, 18%): These levels define the thresholds for exiting portions of the position. Lower levels (e.g., 2%) capture smaller profits quickly, while higher levels (e.g., 18%) allow positions to run longer for more significant gains.
6. Take Profit Percentages (30%, 20%, 15%): These percentages determine how much of the position is exited at each take profit level. A higher percentage at the first level locks in more profit early, reducing exposure to market reversals. Lower percentages at higher levels allow for a portion of the position to benefit from extended trends.
