TradingView Alerts to MT4 MT5 + dynamic variables NON-REPAINTINGAccidentally, I’m sharing open-source profitable Forex strategy. Accidentally, because this was aimed to be purely educational material. A few days ago TradingView released a very powerful feature of dynamic values from PineScript now being allowed to be passed in Alerts. And thanks to TradingConnector, they could be instantly executed in MT4 or MT5 platform of any broker in the world. So yeah - TradingConnector works with indices and commodities, too.
The logic of this EURUSD 6h strategy is very simple - it is based on Stochastic crossovers with stop-loss set under most recent pivot point. Setting stop-loss with surgical precision is possible exactly thanks to allowance of dynamic values in alerts. TradingConnector has been also upgraded to take advantage of these dynamic values and it now enables executing trades with pre-calculated stop-loss, take-profit, as well as stop and limit orders.
Another fresh feature of TradingConnector, is closing positions only partly - provided that the broker allows it, of course. A position needs to have trade_id specified at entry, referred to in further alerts with partial closing. Detailed spec of alerts syntax and functionalities can be found at TradingConnector website. How to include dynamic variables in alert messages can be seen at the very end of the script in alertcondition() calls.
The strategy also takes commission into consideration.
Slippage is intentionally left at 0. Due to shorter than 1 second delivery time of TradingConnector, slippage is practically non-existing. This can be achieved especially if you’re using VPS server, hosted in the same datacenter as your brokers’ servers. I am using such setup, it is doable. Small slippage and spread is already included in commission value.
This strategy is NON-REPAINTING and uses NO TRAILING-STOP or any other feature known to be faulty in TradingView backtester. Does it make this strategy bulletproof and 100% success-guaranteed? Hell no! Remember the no.1 rule of backtesting - no matter how profitable and good looking a script is, it only tells about the past. There is zero guarantee the same strategy will get similar results in the future.
To turn this script into study so that alerts can be produced, do 2 things:
1. comment “strategy” line at the beginning and uncomment “study” line
2. comment lines 54-59 and uncomment lines 62-65.
Then add script to the chart and configure alerts.
This script was build for educational purposes only.
Certainly this is not financial advice. Anybody using this script or any of its parts in any way, must be aware of high risks connected with trading.
Thanks @LucF and @a.tesla2018 for helping me with code fixes :)

Trade Manager (Open Source Version)Hello my young padawans looking for the FORCE to get richer on your next trade
I got pinged at least three times today asking where the hell is the indicator of the day. You asked, I delivered :)
Here's your free open-source Trade Manager Version. My associates might kill me for sharing that one... anyway this is a real GIFT.
I won't share such quality indicators too often for FREE so hope you'll appreciate its value. It can really help with your day to day trading (on top of making your charts looking more awesome)
This is an even better version compared to my previous Trade Manager Trade-Manager . It's basically a standalone version, meaning you'll have to update with 2 lines your own indicator and follow my educational post from yesterday (pasted it below also) to learn how to do it
Please read this educational post I published for you before proceeding further : How-to-connect-your-indicator-with-the-Trade-Manager
From here you normally connected the data source of your own indicator to the Trade Manager. If not, here's a reminder of the article mentionned above
Step 1 - Update your indicator
For the screenshot you see above, I used this indicator : Two-MM-Cross-MACD/ . "But sir are you really advertising your other indicators here ??" ... hmmm.... YES but I gave them for free so ... stop complaining my friend :)
Somewhere in the code you'll have a LONG and a SHORT condition. If not, please go back to study trading for noobs (I'm kidding !!!)
So it should look to something similar
nUP = ma_crossover and macd_crossover
nDN = ma_crossunder and macd_crossunder
What you will need to add at the very end of your script is a Signal plot that will be captured by the Trade Manager. This will give us :
// Signal plot to be used as external
// if crossover, sends 1, otherwise sends -1
Signal = (nUP) ? 1 : (nDN) ? -1 : na
plot(Signal, title="Signal")
The Trade Manager engines expects to receive 1 for a bullishg signal and -1 for bearish .
Step 2 - Add the Trade Manager to your chart and select the right Data Source
I feel the questions coming so I prefer to anticipate :) When you add the Trade Manager to your chart, nothing will be displayed. THIS IS NORMAL because you'll have to select the Data Source to be "Signal"
Remember our Signal variable from the Two MM Cross from before, now we'll capture it and.....drumb rolll...... that's from that moment that your life became even more AWESOME
The Engine will capture the last signal from the MM cross or any indicator actually and will update the Stop Loss, Take Profit levels based on the parameters you set on the Trade Manager
It should work with any indicator as long as you're providing a plot Signal with values 1 and -1 . In any case, you can change the Trade Manager you'll find a better logic for your trading
Now let's cover the different parameters of the tool
It should be straightforward but better to explain everything here
+Label lines : if unchecked, no SL/TPs/... will be displayed
+Show Stop Loss Signal : Will display the stop loss label. You have the choice between three options :
By default, the Stop Loss is set to NONE. You'll have to select a different option to enable the Stop Loss for real
++Percentage : Will set the SL at a percent distance from the price
++Fixed : SL fixed at a static price
++Trailing % : Trailing stop loss based on percentage level
The following is a KEY feature and I got asked for it many times those past two days. I got annoyed of getting the same request so I just did it
++Trailing TP: Will move the Stop Loss if the take profit levels are hit
Example: if TP1 is hit, SL will be moved to breakeven. If TP2 is hit, SL will be moved from TP1 to TP2
+Take Profit 1,2,3 : Visually define the three Take Profit levels. Those are percentage levels .
Meaning if you set TP1 = 2, it will set the TP1 level 2% away from the entry signal
Please note that once a Take profit level is reached, it will magically disappear. This is to be expected
I'll share in the future a way more complete version with invalidation, stop loss/take profits based on indicator, take profit based on supports/resistances, ...
I believe is such a great tool because can be connected to any indicator. I confess that I tried it only with a few... if you find any that's not working with the Trade manager, please let me know and I'll have a look
PS
I want to give a HUUUUUUUGE shoutout to the PineCoders community who helped me finishing it
Wishing you all the best and a pleasant experience with my work

Peak Valley Estimation StrategyIntroduction
Its the first strategy that i post here, so don't expect ground breaking stuff, when testing my indicators i always used prorealtime and not tradingview. This strategy use signals generated by the peak/valley estimator indicator i posted long ago, i think the signals generated where sometimes quite accurate in some markets thus providing potential material for a profitable strategy.
The indicator use 3 parameters, therefore the optimisation process is not easy, but i selected what i judged good parameters values at first glance. The strategy is in its more simple form without stop or anything, the detection of peaks and valley can allow for tighter stops since we expect the price to reverse, but take into account that sops and take profits are parameters subject to optimization process except if selected with strict money management rules and not profit optimization.
Of course trading the strategy in this form is far from being great, if we take into account the market non stationarity then we might expect loss during trending markets. Trend strength indicators could help switch from a reversal to breakout strategy thus maybe providing more control.
I really hope you find an use for the strategy.
Notes
Its been three long years since i started tradingview, and i put more efforts in my indicators than in my studies and life overall, this have created complicated situations and i can't afford to follow up with this, therefore i announce that in the end of june i will leave tradingview for quite a long time, at least until i have my degree. I announce it in advance in case some of you want helps of any kind. I will post all the indicators, both in progress and finished i have made during those three years. I hope you can all understand.
Thanks for reading !
makeTPSo this model try to use the the take profit issue as important
the model is based on the early model that I put in last publication , the problem is that the fire point of the buy and sell has a delay and shoot some bars after (its not repaint but a bug due to TV code) . but once it stay it will calculate correctly the take profits . so I add take profit 1 and take profit 2 to the script . and since take profit 1 is correct without delay I add option to use it as buy again or short again . you can the older entry point which is H= high or L =low as your initial buy point but be aware that it sometime shoot too late since the problem in TV script to transfer the price correctly .or to enter to buy again option which is based on take profit 1 . the H and L are correctly detecting most of the time the Highs and the lows so by going on the trend them you can use the TP which are by % to max out your gains .. this is the theory behind this model
see here on amazon the concept

Golden Cross, SMA 200 Moving Average Strategy (by ChartArt)This famous moving average strategy is very easy to follow to decide when to buy (go long) and when to take profit.
The strategy goes long when the faster SMA 50 (the simple moving average of the last 50 bars) crosses above the slower SMA 200. Orders are closed when the SMA 50 crosses below the SMA 200. This simple strategy does not have any other stop loss or take profit money management logic. The strategy does not short and goes long only!
Here is an article explaining the "golden cross" strategy in more detail:
www.stockopedia.com
On the S&P 500 index (symbol "SPX") this strategy worked on the daily chart 81% since price data is available since 1982. And on the DOW Jones Industrial Average (symbol "DOWI") this strategy worked on the daily chart 55% since price data is available since 1916. The low number of trades is in both cases not statistically significant though.
All trading involves high risk; past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
Elder's Market Thermometer [LazyBear]Market temperature, introduced by Dr.Alexander Elder, helps differentiate between sleepy, quiet and hot market periods.
Following is Mr.Elder's explanation on how to use this indicator (from his book "Come in to my Trading Room"):
"When markets are quiet, the adjacent bars tend to overlap. The consensus of value is well established, and the crowd does little buying or selling outside of yesterday’s range. When highs and lows exceed their previous day’s values, they do so only by small margins. Market Thermometer falls and its EMA slants down, indicating a sleepy market. When a market begins to run, either up or down, its daily bars start pushing outside of the previous ranges. The histogram of Market Thermometer grows taller and crosses above its EMA, which soon turns up, confirming the new trend."
"Market Thermometer gives four trading signals, based on the relationship between its histogram and its moving average:
1) The best time to enter new positions is when Market Thermometer falls below its moving average. When Market Thermometer falls below its EMA, it indicates that the market is quiet. If your system flashes an entry signal, try to enter when the market is cooler than usual. When Market Thermometer rises above its moving average, it warns that the market is hot and slippage more likely.
2) Exit positions when Market Thermometer rises to triple the height of its moving average. A spike of Market Thermometer indicates a runaway move. When the crowd feels jarred by a sudden piece of news and surges, it is a good time to take profits. Panics tend to be short-lived, offering a brief opportunity to cash in. If the EMA of Market Thermometer stands at 5 cents, but the Thermometer itself shoots up to 15 cents, take profits. Test these values for the market you are trading.
3) Get ready for an explosive move if the Thermometer stays below its moving average for five to seven trading days. Quiet markets put amateurs to sleep. They become careless and stop watching prices. Volatility and volume fall, and professionals get a chance to run away with the market. Explosive moves often erupt from periods of inactivity.
4) Market Thermometer can help you set a profit target for the next trading day. If you are a short-term trader and are long, add the value of today’s Thermometer EMA to yesterday’s high and place a sell order there. If you are short, subtract the value of the Thermometer’s EMA from yesterday’s low and place an order to cover at that level."
You can configure the "Explosive Move threshold" (default: 3), "Idle Market Threshold" (default: 7) and "Thermometer EMA length" (default: 22) via Options page.

System Rules and Parameters
Total capital: $10,000
We will use 10% of the total capital per trade
Commissions will be 0.1% per trade
Condition 1: Previous Bearish Candle (isPrevBearish) (the closing price was lower than the opening price).
Condition 2: Midpoint of the Body The script calculates the exact midpoint of the body of that previous bearish candle.
• Formula: (Previous Open + Previous Close) / 2.
Condition 3: 50% Recovery (longCondition) The current candle must be bullish (green) and, most importantly, its closing price must be above the midpoint calculated in the previous step.
Once these parameters are met, the system executes a long entry and calculates the exit parameters:
Stop Loss (SL): Placed at the low of the candle that generated the entry signal.
Take Profit (TP): Calculated by projecting the risk distance upward.
• Calculation: Entry Price + (Risk * 1).
Risk:Reward Ratio of 1:1.
About the Profit Factor
In my experience, TradingView calculates profits and losses based on the percentage of movement, which can cause returns to not match expectations. This doesn’t significantly affect trending systems, but it can impact systems with a high win rate and a well-defined risk-reward ratio. It only takes one large entry candle that triggers the SL to translate into a major drop in performance.
For example, you might see a system with a 60% win rate and a 1:1 risk-reward ratio generating losses, even though commissions are under control relative to the number of trades.
My recommendation is to manually calculate the performance of systems with a well-defined risk-reward ratio, assuming you will trade using a fixed amount per trade and limit losses to a fixed percentage.
Remember that, even if candles are larger or smaller in size, we can maintain a fixed loss percentage by using leverage (in cases of low volatility) or reducing the capital at risk (when volatility is high).
Implementing leverage or capital reduction based on volatility is something I haven’t been able to incorporate into the code, but it would undoubtedly improve the system’s performance dramatically, as it would fix a consistent loss percentage per trade, preventing losses from fluctuating with volatility swings.
For example, we can maintain a fixed loss percentage when volatility is low by using the following formula:
Leverage = % of SL you’re willing to risk / % volatility from entry point to exit or SL
And if volatility is high and exceeds the fixed percentage we want to expose per trade (if SL is hit), we could reduce the position size.
For example, imagine we only want to risk 15% per SL on Tesla, where volatility is high and would cause a 23.57% loss. In this case, we subtract 23.57% from 15% (the loss percentage we’re willing to accept per trade), then subtract the result from our usual position size.
23.57% - 15% = 8.57%
Suppose I use $200 per trade.
To calculate 8.57% of $200, simply multiply 200 by 8.57/100. This simple calculation shows that 8.57% equals about $17.14 of the $200. Then subtract that value from $200:
$200 - $17.14 = $182.86
In summary, if we reduced the position size to $182.86 (from the usual $200, where we’re willing to lose 15%), no matter whether Tesla moves up or down 23.57%, we would still only gain or lose 15% of the $200, thus respecting our risk management.
Final Notes
The code is extremely simple, and every step of its development is detailed within it.
If you liked this strategy, which complements very well with others I’ve already published, stay tuned. Best regards.
Impulse Reactor RSI-SMA Trend Indicator [ApexLegion]Impulse Reactor RSI-SMA Trend Indicator
Introduction and Theoretical Background
Design Rationale
Standard indicators frequently generate binary 'BUY' or 'SELL' signals without accounting for the broader market context. This often results in erratic "Flip-Flop" behavior, where signals are triggered indiscriminately regardless of the prevailing volatility regime.
Impulse Reactor was engineered to address this limitation by unifying two critical requirements: Quantitative Rigor and Execution Flexibility.
The Solution
Composite Analytical Framework This script is not a simple visual overlay of existing indicators. It is an algorithmic synthesis designed to function as a unified decision-making engine. The primary objective was to implement rigorous quantitative analysis (Volatility Normalization, Structural Filtering) directly within an alert-enabled framework. This architecture is designed to process signals through strict, multi-factor validation protocols before generating real-time notifications, allowing users to focus on structurally validated setups without manual monitoring.
How It Works
This is not a simple visual mashup. It utilizes a cross-validation algorithm where the Trend Structure acts as a gatekeeper for Momentum signals:
Logic over Lag: Unlike simple moving average crossovers, this script uses a 15-layer Gradient Ribbon to detect "Laminar Flow." If the ribbon is knotted (Compression), the system mathematically suppresses all signals.
Volatility Normalization: The core calculation adapts to ATR (Average True Range). This means the indicator automatically expands in volatile markets and contracts in quiet ones, maintaining accuracy without constant manual tweaking.
Adaptive Signal Thresholding: It incorporates an 'Anti-Greed' algorithm (Dynamic Thresholding) that automatically adjusts entry criteria based on trend duration. This logic aims to mitigate the risk of entering positions during periods of statistical trend exhaustion.
Why Use It?
Market State Decoding: The gradient Ribbon visualizes the underlying trend phase in real-time.
◦ Cyan/Blue Flow: Strong Bullish Trend (Laminar Flow).
◦ Magenta/Pink Flow: Strong Bearish Trend.
◦ Compressed/Knotted: When the ribbon lines are tightly squeezed or overlapping, it signals Consolidation. The system filters signals here to avoid chop.
Noise Reduction: The goal is not to catch every pivot, but to isolate high-confidence setups. The logic explicitly filters out minor fluctuations to help maintain position alignment with the broader trend.
⚖️ Chapter 1: System Architecture
Introduction: Composite Analytical Framework
System Overview
Impulse Reactor serves as a comprehensive technical analysis engine designed to synthesize three distinct market dimensions—Momentum, Volatility, and Trend Structure—into a unified decision-making framework. Unlike traditional methods that analyze these metrics in isolation, this system functions as a central processing unit that integrates disparate data streams to construct a coherent model of market behavior.
Operational Objective
The primary objective is to transition from single-dimensional signal generation to a multi-factor assessment model. By fusing data from the Impulse Core (Volatility), Gradient Oscillator (Momentum), and Structural Baseline (Trend), the system aims to filter out stochastic noise and identify high-probability trade setups grounded in quantitative confluence.
Market Microstructure Analysis: Limitations of Conventional Models
Extensive backtesting and quantitative analysis have identified three critical inefficiencies in standard oscillator-based strategies:
• Bounded Oscillator Limitations (The "Oscillation Trap"): Traditional indicators such as RSI or Stochastics are mathematically constrained between fixed values (0 to 100). In strong trending environments, these metrics often saturate in "overbought" or "oversold" zones. Consequently, traders relying on static thresholds frequently exit structurally valid positions prematurely or initiate counter-trend trades against prevailing momentum, resulting in suboptimal performance.
• Quantitative Blindness to Quality: Standard moving averages and trend indicators often fail to distinguish the qualitative nature of price movement. They treat low-volume drift and high-velocity expansion identically. This inability to account for "Volatility Quality" leads to delayed responsiveness during critical market events.
• Fractal Dissonance (Timeframe Disconnect): Financial markets exhibit fractal characteristics where trends on lower timeframes may contradict higher timeframe structures. Manual integration of multi-timeframe analysis increases cognitive load and susceptibility to human error, often resulting in conflicting biases at the point of execution.
Core Design Principles
To mitigate the aforementioned systemic inefficiencies, Impulse Reactor employs a modular architecture governed by three foundational principles:
Principle A:
Volatility Precursor Analysis Market mechanics demonstrate that volatility expansion often functions as a leading indicator for directional price movement. The system is engineered to detect "Volatility Deviation" — specifically, the divergence between short-term and long-term volatility baselines—prior to its manifestation in price action. This allows for entry timing aligned with the expansion phase of market volatility.
Principle B:
Momentum Density Visualization The system replaces singular momentum lines with a "Momentum Density" model utilizing a 15-layer Simple Moving Average (SMA) Ribbon.
• Concept: This visualization represents the aggregate strength and consistency of the trend.
• Application: A fully aligned and expanded ribbon indicates a robust trend structure ("Laminar Flow") capable of withstanding minor counter-trend noise, whereas a compressed ribbon signals consolidation or structural weakness.
Principle C:
Adaptive Confluence Protocols Signal validity is strictly governed by a multi-dimensional confluence logic. The system suppresses signal generation unless there is synchronized confirmation across all three analytical vectors:
1. Volatility: Confirmed expansion via the Impulse Core.
2. Momentum: Directional alignment via the Hybrid Oscillator.
3. Structure: Trend validation via the Baseline. This strict filtering mechanism significantly reduces false positives in non-trending (choppy) environments while maintaining sensitivity to genuine breakouts.
🔍 Chapter 2: Core Modules & Algorithmic Logic
Module A: Impulse Core (Normalized Volatility Deviation)
Operational Logic The Impulse Core functions as a volatility-normalized momentum gauge rather than a standard oscillator. It is designed to identify "Volatility Contraction" (Squeeze) and "Volatility Expansion" phases by quantifying the divergence between short-term and long-term volatility states.
Volatility Z-Score Normalization
The formula implements a custom normalization algorithm. Unlike standard oscillators that rely on absolute price changes, this logic calculates the Z-Score of the Volatility Spread.
◦ Numerator: (atr_f - atr_s) captures the raw momentum of volatility expansion.
◦ Denominator: (std_f + 1e-6) standardizes this value against historical variance.
◦ Result: This allows the indicator scales consistently across assets (e.g., Bitcoin vs. Euro) without manual recalibration.
f_impulse() =>
atr_f = ta.atr(fastLen) // Fast Volatility Baseline
atr_s = ta.atr(slowLen) // Slow Volatility Baseline
std_f = ta.stdev(atr_f, devLen) // Volatility Standard Deviation
(atr_f - atr_s) / (std_f + 1e-6) // Normalized Differential Calculation
Algorithmic Framework
• Differential Calculation: The system computes the spread between a Fast Volatility Baseline (ATR-10) and a Slow Volatility Baseline (ATR-30).
• Normalization Protocol: To standardize consistency across diverse asset classes (e.g., Forex vs. Crypto), the raw differential is divided by the standard deviation of the volatility itself over a 30-period lookback.
• Signal Generation:
◦ Contraction (Squeeze): When the Fast ATR compresses below the Slow ATR, it registers a potential volatility buildup phase.
◦ Expansion (Release): A rapid divergence of the Fast ATR above the Slow ATR signals a confirmed volatility expansion, validating the strength of the move.
Module B: Gradient Oscillator (RSI-SMA Hybrid)
Design Rationale To mitigate the "noise" and "false reversal" signals common in single-line oscillators (like standard RSI), this module utilizes a 15-Layer Gradient Ribbon to visualize momentum density and persistence.
Technical Architecture
• Ribbon Array: The system generates 15 sequential Simple Moving Averages (SMA) applied to a volatility-adjusted RSI source. The length of each layer increases incrementally.
• State Analysis:
Momentum Alignment (Laminar Flow): When all 15 layers are expanded and parallel, it indicates a robust trend where buying/selling pressure is distributed evenly across multiple timeframes. This state helps filter out premature "overbought/oversold" signals.
• Consolidation (Compression): When the distance between the fastest layer (Layer 1) and the slowest layer (Layer 15) approaches zero or the layers intersect, the system identifies a "Non-Tradable Zone," preventing entries during choppy market conditions.
// Laminar Flow Validation
f_validate_trend() =>
// Calculate spread between Ribbon layers
ribbon_spread = ta.stdev(ribbon_array, 15)
// Only allow signals if Ribbon is expanded (Laminar Flow)
is_flowing = ribbon_spread > min_expansion_threshold
// If compressed (Knotted), force signal to false
is_flowing ? signal : na
Module C: Adaptive Signal Filtering (Behavioral Bias Mitigation)
This subsystem, operating as an algorithmic "Anti-Greed" Mechanism, addresses the statistical tendency for signal degradation following prolonged trends.
Dynamic Threshold Adjustment
• Win Streak Detection: The algorithm internally tracks the outcome of closed trade cycles.
• Sensitivity Multiplier: Upon detecting consecutive successful signals in the same direction, a Penalty_Factor is applied to the entry logic.
• Operational Impact: This effectively raises the Required_Slope threshold for subsequent signals. For example, after three consecutive bullish signals, the system requires a 30% steeper trend angle to validate a fourth entry. This enforces stricter discipline during extended trends to reduce the probability of entering at the point of trend exhaustion.
Anti-Greed Logic: Dynamic Threshold Calculation
f_adjust_threshold(base_slope, win_streak) =>
// Adds a 10% penalty to the difficulty for every consecutive win
penalty_factor = 0.10
risk_scaler = 1 + (win_streak * penalty_factor)
// Returns the new, harder-to-reach threshold
base_slope * risk_scaler
Module D: Trend Baseline (Triple-Smoothed Structure)
The Trend Baseline serves as the structural filter for all signals. It employs a Triple-Smoothed Hybrid Algorithm designed to balance lag reduction with noise filtration.
Smoothing Stages
1. Volatility Banding: Utilizes a SuperTrend-based calculation to establish the upper and lower boundaries of price action.
2. Weighted Filter: Applies a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) to prioritize recent price data.
3. Exponential Smoothing: A final Exponential Moving Average (EMA) pass is applied to create a seamless baseline curve.
Functionality
This "Heavy" baseline resists minor intraday volatility spikes while remaining responsive to sustained structural shifts. A signal is only considered valid if the price action maintains structural integrity relative to this baseline
🚦 Chapter 3: Risk Management & Exit Protocols
Quantitative Risk Management (TP/SL & Trailing)
Foundational Architecture: Volatility-Adjusted Geometry Unlike strategies relying on static nominal values, Impulse Reactor establishes dynamic risk boundaries derived from quantitative volatility metrics. This design aligns trade invalidation levels mathematically with the current market regime.
• ATR-Based Dynamic Bracketing:
The protocol calculates Stop-Loss and Take-Profit levels by applying Fibonacci coefficients (Default: 0.786 for SL / 1.618 for TP) to the Average True Range (ATR).
◦ High Volatility Environments: The risk bands automatically expand to accommodate wider variance, preventing premature exits caused by standard market noise.
◦ Low Volatility Environments: The bands contract to tighten risk parameters, thereby dynamically adjusting the Risk-to-Reward (R:R) geometry.
• Close-Validation Protocol ("Soft Stop"):
Institutional algorithms frequently execute liquidity sweeps—driving prices briefly below key support levels to accumulate inventory.
◦ Mechanism: When the "Soft Stop" feature is enabled, the system filters out intraday volatility spikes. The stop-loss is conditional; execution is triggered only if the candle closes beyond the invalidation threshold.
◦ Strategic Advantage: This logic distinguishes between momentary price wicks and genuine structural breakdowns, preserving positions during transient volatility.
• Step-Function Trailing Mechanism:
To protect unrealized PnL while allowing for normal price breathing, a two-phase trailing methodology is employed:
◦ Phase 1 (Activation): The trailing function remains dormant until the price advances by a pre-defined percentage threshold.
◦ Phase 2 (Dynamic Floor): Once armed, the stop level creates a moving floor, adjusting relative to price action while maintaining a volatility-based (ATR) buffer to systematically protect unrealized PnL.
• Algorithmic Exit Protocols (Dynamic Liquidity Analysis)
◦ Rationale: Inefficiencies of Static Targets Static "Take Profit" levels often result in suboptimal exits. They compel traders to close positions based on arbitrary figures rather than evolving market structure, potentially capping upside during significant trends or retaining positions while the underlying trend structure deteriorates.
◦ Solution: Structural Integrity Assessment The system utilizes a Dynamic Liquidity Engine to continuously audit the validity of the position. Instead of targeting a specific price point, the algorithm evaluates whether the trend remains statistically robust.
Multi-Factor Exit Logic (The Tri-Vector System)
The Smart Exit protocol executes only when specific algorithmic invalidation criteria are met:
• 1. Momentum Exhaustion (Confluence Decay): The system monitors a 168-hour rolling average of the Confluence Score. A significant deviation below this historical baseline indicates momentum exhaustion, signaling that the driving force behind the trend has dissipated prior to a price reversal. This enables preemptive exits before a potential drawdown.
• 2. Statistical Over-Extension (Mean Reversion): Utilizing the core volatility logic, the system identifies instances where price deviates beyond 2.0 standard deviations from the mean. While the trend may be technically bullish, this statistical anomaly suggests a high probability of mean reversion (elastic snap-back), triggering a defensive exit to capitalize on peak valuation.
• 3. Oscillator Rejection (Immediate Pivot): To manage sudden V-shaped volatility, the system monitors RSI pivots. If a sharp "Pivot High" or divergence is detected, the protocol triggers an immediate "Peak Exit," bypassing standard trend filters to secure liquidity during high-velocity reversals.
🎨 Chapter 4: Visualization Guide
Gradient Oscillator Ribbon
The 15-layer SMA ribbon visualized via plot(r1...r15) represents the "Momentum Density" of the market.
• Visuals:
◦ Cyan/Blue Ribbon: Indicates Bullish Momentum.
◦ Pink/Magenta Ribbon: Indicates Bearish Momentum.
• Interpretation:
◦ Laminar Flow: When the ribbon expands widely and flows in parallel, it signifies a robust trend where momentum is distributed evenly across timeframes. This is the ideal state for trend-following.
◦ Compression (Consolidation): If the ribbon becomes narrow, twisted, or knotted, it indicates a "Non-Tradable Zone" where the market lacks a unified direction. Traders are advised to wait for clarity.
◦ Over-Extension: If the top layer crosses the Overbought (85) or Oversold (15) lines, it visually warns of potential market overheating.
Trend Baseline
The thick, color-changing line plotted via plot(baseline) represents the Structural Backbone of the market.
• Visuals: Changes color based on the trend direction (Blue for Bullish, Pink for Bearish).
• Interpretation:
Structural Filter: Long positions are statistically favored only when price action sustains above this baseline, while short positions are favored below it.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: The baseline acts as a dynamic support level during uptrends and resistance during downtrends.
Entry Signals & Labels
Text labels ("Long Entry", "Short Entry") appear when the system detects high-probability setups grounded in quantitative confluence.
• Visuals: Labeled signals appear above/below specific candles.
• Interpretation:
These signals represent moments where Volatility (Expansion), Momentum (Alignment), and Structure (Trend) are synchronized.
Smart Exit: Labels such as "Smart Exit" or "Peak Exit" appear when the system detects momentum exhaustion or structural decay, prompting a defensive exit to preserve capital.
Dynamic TP/SL Boxes
The semi-transparent colored zones drawn via fill() represent the risk management geometry.
• Visuals: Colored boxes extending from the entry point to the Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels.
• Function:
Volatility-Adjusted Geometry: Unlike static price targets, these boxes expand during high volatility (to prevent wicks from stopping you out) and contract during low volatility (to optimize Risk-to-Reward ratios).
SAR + MACD Glow
Small glowing shapes appearing above or below candles.
• Visuals: Triangle or circle glows near the price bars.
• Interpretation:
This visual indicates a secondary confirmation where Parabolic SAR and MACD align with the main trend direction. It serves as an additional confluence factor to increase confidence in the trade setup.
Support/Resistance Table
A small table located at the bottom-right of the chart.
• Function: Automatically identifies and displays recent Pivot Highs (Resistance) and Pivot Lows (Support).
• Interpretation: These levels can be used as potential targets for Take Profit or invalidation points for manual Stop Loss adjustments.
🖥️ Chapter 5: Dashboard & Operational Guide
Integrated Analytics Panel (Dashboard Overview)
To facilitate rapid decision-making without manual calculation, the system aggregates critical market dimensions into a unified "Heads-Up Display" (HUD). This panel monitors real-time metrics across multiple timeframes and analytical vectors.
A. Intermediate Structure (12H Trend)
• Function: Anchors the intraday analysis to the broader market structure using a 12-hour rolling window.
• Interpretation:
◦ Bullish (> +0.5%): Indicates a positive structural bias. Long setups align with the macro flow.
◦ Bearish (< -0.5%): Indicates structural weakness. Short setups are statistically favored.
◦ Neutral: Represents a ranging environment where the Confluence Score becomes the primary weighting factor.
B. Composite Confluence Score (Signal Confidence)
• Definition: A probability metric derived from the synchronization of Volatility (Impulse Core), Momentum (Ribbon), and Trend (Baseline).
• Grading Scale:
Strong Buy/Sell (> 7.0 / < 3.0): Indicates full alignment across all three vectors. Represents a "Prime Setup" eligible for standard position sizing.
Buy/Sell (5.0–7.0 / 3.0–5.0): Indicates a valid trend but with moderate volatility confirmation.
Neutral: Signals conflicting data (e.g., Bullish Momentum vs. Bearish Structure). Trading is not recommended ("No-Trade Zone").
C. Statistical Deviation Status (Mean Reversion)
• Logic: Utilizes Bollinger Band deviation principles to quantify how far price has stretched from the statistical mean (20 SMA).
• Alert States:
Over-Extended (> 2.0 SD): Warning that price is statistically likely to revert to the mean (Elastic Snap-back), even if the trend remains technically valid. New entries are discouraged in this zone.
Normal: Price is within standard distribution limits, suitable for trend-following entries.
D. Volatility Regime Classification
• Metric: Compares current ATR against a 100-period historical baseline to categorize the market state.
• Regimes:
Low Volatility (Lvl < 1.0): Market Compression. Often precedes volatility expansion events.
Mid Volatility (Lvl 1.0 - 1.5): Standard operating environment.
High Volatility (Lvl > 1.5): Elevated market stress. Risk parameters should be adjusted (e.g., reduced position size) to account for increased variance.
E. Performance Telemetry
• Function: Displays the historical reliability of the Trend Baseline for the current asset and timeframe.
• Operational Threshold: If the displayed Win Rate falls below 40%, it suggests the current market behavior is incoherent (choppy) and does not respect trend logic. In such cases, switching assets or timeframes is recommended.
Operational Protocols & Signal Decoding
Visual Interpretation Standards
• Laminar Flow (Trade Confirmation): A valid trend is visually confirmed when the 15-layer SMA Ribbon is fully expanded and parallel. This indicates distributed momentum across timeframes.
• Consolidation (No-Trade): If the ribbon appears twisted, knotted, or compressed, the market lacks a unified directional vector.
• Baseline Interaction: The Triple-Smoothed Baseline acts as a dynamic support/resistance filter. Long positions remain valid only while price sustains above this structure.
System Calibration (Settings)
• Adaptive Signal Filtering (Prev. Anti-Greed): Enabled by default. This logic automatically raises the required trend slope threshold following consecutive wins to mitigate behavioral bias.
• Impulse Sensitivity: Controls the reactivity of the Volatility Core. Higher settings capture faster moves but may introduce more noise.
⚙️ Chapter 6: System Configuration & Alert Guide
This section provides a complete breakdown of every adjustable setting within Impulse Reactor to assist you in tailoring the engine to your specific needs.
🌐 LANGUAGE SETTINGS (Localization)
◦ Select Language (Default: English):
Function: Instantly translates all chart labels, dashboard texts into your preferred language.
Supported: English, Korean, Chinese, Spanish
⚡ IMPULSE CORE SETTINGS (Volatility Engine)
◦ Deviation Lookback (Default: 30): The period used to calculate the standard deviation of volatility.
Role: Sets the baseline for normalizing momentum. Higher values make the core smoother but slower to react.
◦ Fast Pulse Length (Default: 10): The short-term ATR period.
Role: Detects rapid volatility expansion.
◦ Slow Pulse Length (Default: 30): The long-term ATR baseline.
Role: Establishes the background volatility level. The core signal is derived from the divergence between Fast and Slow pulses.
🎯 TP/SL SETTINGS (Risk Management)
◦ SL/TP Fibonacci (Default: 0.786 / 1.618): Selects the Fibonacci ratio used for risk calculation.
◦ SL/TP Multiplier (Default: 1.5 / 2): Applies a multiplier to the ATR-based bands.
Role: Expands or contracts the Take Profit and Stop Loss boxes. Increase these values for higher volatility assets (like Altcoins) to avoid premature stop-outs.
◦ ATR Length (Default: 14): The lookback period for calculating the Average True Range used in risk geometry.
◦ Use Soft Stop (Close Basis):
Role: If enabled, Stop Loss alerts only trigger if a candle closes beyond the invalidation level. This prevents being stopped out by wick manipulations.
🔊 RIBBON SETTINGS (Momentum Visualization)
◦ Show SMA Ribbon: Toggles the visibility of the 15-layer gradient ribbon.
◦ Ribbon Line Count (Default: 15): The number of SMA lines in the ribbon array.
◦ Ribbon Start Length (Default: 2) & Step (Default: 1): Defines the spread of the ribbon.
Role: Controls the "thickness" of the momentum density visualization. A wider step creates a broader ribbon, useful for higher timeframes.
📎 DISPLAY OPTIONS
◦ Show Entry Lines / TP/SL Box / Position Labels / S/R Levels / Dashboard: Toggles individual visual elements on the chart to reduce clutter.
◦ Show SAR+MACD Glow: Enables the secondary confirmation shapes (triangles/circles) above/below candles.
📈 TREND BASELINE (Structural Filter)
◦ Supertrend Factor (Default: 12) & ATR Period (Default: 90): Controls the sensitivity of the underlying Supertrend algorithm used for the baseline calculation.
◦ WMA Length (40) & EMA Length (14): The smoothing periods for the Triple-Smoothed Baseline.
◦ Min Trend Duration (Default: 10): The minimum number of bars the trend must be established before a signal is considered valid.
🧠 SMART EXIT (Dynamic Liquidity)
◦ Use Smart Exit: Enables the momentum exhaustion logic.
◦ Exit Threshold Score (Default: 3): The sensitivity level for triggering a Smart Exit. Lower values trigger earlier exits.
◦ Average Period (168) & Min Hold Bars (5): Defines the rolling window for momentum decay analysis and the minimum duration a trade must be held before Smart Exit logic activates.
🛡️ TRAILING STOP (Step)
◦ Use Trailing Stop: Activates the step-function trailing mechanism.
◦ Step 1 Activation % (0.5) & Offset % (0.5): The price must move 0.5% in your favor to arm the first trail level, which sets a stop 0.5% behind price.
◦ Step 2 Activation % (1) & Offset % (0.2): Once price moves 1%, the trail tightens to 0.2%, securing the position.
🌀 SAR & MACD SETTINGS (Secondary Confirmation)
◦ SAR Start/Increment/Max: Standard Parabolic SAR parameters.
◦ SAR Score Scaling (ATR): Adjusts how much weight the SAR signal has in the overall confluence score.
◦ MACD Fast/Slow/Signal: Standard MACD parameters used for the "Glow" signals.
🔄 ANTI-GREED LOGIC (Behavioral Bias)
◦ Strict Entry after Win: Enables the negative feedback loop.
◦ Strict Multiplier (Default: 1.1): Increases the entry difficulty by 10% after each win.
Role: Prevents overtrading and entering at the top of an extended trend.
🌍 HTF FILTER (Multi-Timeframe)
◦ Use Auto-Adaptive HTF Filter: Automatically selects a higher timeframe (e.g., 1H -> 4H) to filter signals.
◦ Bypass HTF on Steep Trigger: Allows an entry even against the HTF trend if the local momentum slope is exceptionally steep (catch powerful reversals).
📉 RSI PEAK & CHOPPINESS
◦ RSI Peak Exit (Instant): Triggers an immediate exit if a sharp RSI pivot (V-shape) is detected.
◦ Choppiness Filter: Suppresses signals if the Choppiness Index is above the threshold (Default: 60), indicating a flat market.
📐 SLOPE TRIGGER LOGIC
◦ Force Entry on Steep Slope: Overrides other filters if the price angle is extremely vertical (high velocity).
◦ Slope Sensitivity (1.5): The angle required to trigger this override.
⛔ FLAT MARKET FILTER (ADX & ATR)
◦ Use ADX Filter: Blocks signals if ADX is below the threshold (Default: 20), indicating no trend.
◦ Use ATR Flat Filter: Blocks signals if volatility drops below a critical level (dead market).

DISCLAIMER
This is a technical analysis tool, not financial advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management and test on a demo account first.
DarkPool FlowDarkPool Flow is a professional-grade technical analysis tool designed to align retail traders with the dominant "smart money" flow. Unlike standard moving average crossovers that often generate false signals during consolidation, this script employs a multi-layered filtering engine to isolate high-probability trends.
The core philosophy of this indicator is that Trends are fractal. A sustainable move on a lower timeframe must be supported by momentum on a higher timeframe. By comparing a "Fast Signal Trend" against a "Slow Anchor Trend" (e.g., Daily vs. Weekly), the script identifies the market bias used by institutional algorithms.
This edition features a Smart Recovery Engine, ensuring that valid trends are not missed simply because momentum started slowly, and a Dynamic Cloud that visually represents the strength of the trend spread.
Key Features
1. Auto-Adaptive Timeframe Logic
The script eliminates the guesswork of Multi-Timeframe (MTF) selection. By enabling "Auto-Adapt," the indicator detects your current chart timeframe and automatically maps it to the mathematically correct institutional pairings:
Scalping (<15m): Uses 15-Minute Trend vs. 1-Hour Anchor.
Day Trading (15m - 1H): Uses 4-Hour Trend vs. Daily Anchor.
Swing Trading (4H - Daily): Uses Daily Trend vs. Weekly Anchor (The classic "Golden" setup).
Investing (Weekly): Uses 21-Week EMA vs. 50-Week SMA (Bull Market Support Band logic).
2. Smart Recovery Signal Engine
Standard crossover scripts often miss major moves if the specific breakout candle has low volume or weak ADX. This script utilizes a state-machine logic that "remembers" the trend direction. If a trend begins during low volatility (gray candles), the script waits. The moment volatility and momentum confirm the move, a Smart Recovery Signal is triggered, allowing you to enter an existing trend safely.
3. Chop Protection (Gray Candles)
Preservation of capital is the priority. The script analyzes the Average Directional Index (ADX) and Volatility (ATR).
Colored Candles (Green/Red): The market is trending with sufficient strength. Trading is permitted.
Gray Candles: The market is in a low-energy chop or consolidation (ADX < 20). Trading is discouraged.
4. Dynamic Trend Cloud
The space between the Fast and Slow trends is filled with a dynamic cloud.
Darker/Opaque Cloud: Indicates a widening spread, suggesting accelerating momentum.
Lighter/Transparent Cloud: Indicates a narrowing spread, suggesting the trend may be weakening or consolidating.
5. Pullback & Retest Signals (+)
While triangles mark the start of a trend, the Plus (+) signs mark low-risk opportunities to add to a position. These appear when price dips into the cloud, finds support at the "Fair Value" zone, and closes back in the direction of the trend with confirmed momentum.
User Guide & Strategy
Setup
Add the indicator to your chart.
For Beginners: Enable "Auto-Adaptive Timeframes" in the settings.
For Advanced Users: Disable Auto-Adapt and manually configure your Fast/Slow pairings (Default is Daily 50 EMA / Weekly 50 EMA).
Signal Mode: Choose "First Breakout Only" for a cleaner chart, or "All Signals" if you wish to see re-entry points during choppy starts.
Long Entry Criteria (Buy)
Trend: The Cloud must be Green (Fast Trend > Slow Trend).
Signal: A Green Triangle appears below the bar.
Confirmation: The signal candle must not be Gray.
Re-Entry: A small Green (+) sign appears, indicating a successful test of the cloud support.
Short Entry Criteria (Sell)
Trend: The Cloud must be Red (Fast Trend < Slow Trend).
Signal: A Red Triangle appears above the bar.
Confirmation: The signal candle must not be Gray.
Re-Entry: A small Red (+) sign appears, indicating a successful test of the cloud resistance.
Stop Loss & Risk Management
Stop Loss: A standard institutional stop loss is placed just beyond the Slow Trend Line (the outer edge of the cloud). If price closes beyond the Slow Trend, the macro thesis is invalid.
Take Profit: Target liquidity pools or use a trailing stop based on the Fast Trend line.
Settings Overview
Mode Selection: Toggle between Auto-Adaptive logic or Manual control.
Manual Configuration: Define the specific Timeframe, Length, and Type (EMA, SMA, WMA) for both Fast and Slow trends.
Signal Logic: Toggle "Show Pullback Signals" on/off. Switch between "First Breakout" or "All Signals."
Quality Filters: Toggle individual filters (ATR, RSI, ADX) to adjust sensitivity. Turning these off makes the script more responsive but increases false signals.
Visual Style: Customize colors for Bullish, Bearish, and Neutral (Gray) states. Adjust cloud transparency.

### 📈 **Advanced Visualization**
- Clean 0-100 scale with 2 decimal precision
- Three main indicators: BTC Allocation %, Fear & Greed Index, BTC Holdings
- Real-time portfolio tracking with cash position display
- Enhanced info table showing all key metrics
## How to Use
### **Step 1: Setup**
1. Add the strategy to your BTC/USD chart (daily timeframe recommended)
2. **CRITICAL**: In settings, change the "Fear & Greed Source" from "close" to a proper 0-100 Fear & Greed indicator
---------------
I recommend Crypto Fear & Greed Index by TIA_Technology indicator
When selecting source with this indicator, look for "Crypto Fear and Greed Index:Index"
---------------
3. Set your "Starting BTC Quantity" to match your actual holdings
4. Configure your preferred "Start Date" (when you want the strategy to begin)
### **Step 2: Configure Bull Year Logic**
- Enable "Bull Year Logic" (default: enabled)
- Adjust quarterly sell percentages:
- Q1 (Jan-Mar): 1% (conservative early bull)
- Q2 (Apr-Jun): 2% (moderate mid bull)
- Q3/Q4 (Jul-Dec): 5% (aggressive peak targeting)
- Add future bull years to the list as needed
### **Step 3: Fine-tune Thresholds**
- **Greed Threshold**: 80 (sell when F&G > 80)
- **Fear Threshold**: 20 (buy when F&G < 20 in bull markets)
- **Deep Bear Fear Threshold**: 25 (enhanced buying in bear markets)
- Adjust based on your risk tolerance
### **Step 4: Risk Management**
- Set "Minimum BTC Allocation %" (default 20%) - prevents selling entire stack
- Configure sell/buy percentages based on your position size
- Enable bear market filters for enhanced timing
### **Step 5: Monitor Performance**
- **Orange Line**: Your BTC allocation percentage (target: fluctuate between 20-100%)
- **Blue Line**: Actual BTC holdings (should preserve core position)
- **Pink Line**: Fear & Greed Index (drives all decisions)
- **Table**: Real-time portfolio metrics including cash position
## Reading the Indicators
### **BTC Allocation Percentage (Orange Line)**
- **100%**: All portfolio in BTC, no cash available for buying
- **80%**: 80% BTC, 20% cash ready for fear buying
- **20%**: Minimum allocation, maximum cash position
### **Trading Signals**
- **Green Buy Signals**: Appear during fear periods with available cash
- **Red Sell Signals**: Appear during greed periods in bull years only
- **No Signals**: Either allocation limits reached or non-bull year
## Strategy Logic
### **Bull Years (2017, 2021, 2025)**
- Q1: Conservative 1% sells (preserve stack for later)
- Q2: Moderate 2% sells (gradual profit taking)
- Q3/Q4: Aggressive 5% sells (peak targeting)
- Fear buying active (accumulate on dips)
### **Non-Bull Years**
- **Zero selling** - pure accumulation mode
- Enhanced fear buying during bear markets
- Focus on rebuilding stack for next bull cycle
## Important Notes
- **This is not financial advice** - backtest thoroughly before use
- Designed for **long-term holders** (4+ year cycles)
- **Requires proper Fear & Greed data source** - validate in settings
- Best used on **daily timeframe** for major trend following
- **Cash calculations**: Use allocation % and BTC holdings to calculate available cash: `Cash = (Total Portfolio × (1 - Allocation%/100))`
## Risk Disclaimer
This strategy involves active trading and position management. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always do your own research and never invest more than you can afford to lose. The strategy is designed for educational purposes and long-term Bitcoin accumulation thesis.

Quantum Ribbon Lite📊 WHAT IS IT?
Quantum Ribbon Lite is a trend trading indicator built on a 5-layer exponential moving average ribbon system. It analyzes price momentum, volume, and ribbon alignment to generate entry signals with pre-calculated stop loss and take profit levels.
The indicator is designed for traders who want a straightforward approach to trend trading without managing complex configurations.
🔧 HOW IT WORKS
The Ribbon System
The indicator uses 5 pairs of EMAs (10 moving averages total) that create colored "clouds" on your chart:
Blue/Teal ribbons indicate bullish alignment
Red/Pink ribbons indicate bearish alignment
Mixed colors indicate neutral or transitional periods
The ribbon spacing automatically adjusts from a fast EMA (21) to a slow EMA (60), creating layers that show trend strength and direction.
Signal Generation
Signals appear when multiple conditions align:
For LONG signals:
Fast EMAs are above slow EMAs
Price momentum is positive and strong (> 0.5 ATR)
Volume is above average (> 1.1x average)
Ribbon confirms bullish state
Minimum confidence threshold met (filters weak setups)
For SHORT signals:
Fast EMAs are below slow EMAs
Price momentum is negative and strong
Volume is above average
Ribbon confirms bearish state
Minimum confidence threshold met
📈 VISUAL COMPONENTS
Entry Signals
Green "BUY" label = Long entry signal at candle close
Red "SELL" label = Short entry signal at candle close
Signals only trigger on confirmed candle closes (no repainting).
Risk Management Lines
Three lines appear when you have an active position:
White dotted line = Entry price
Red dotted line = Stop loss level
Green dotted line = Take profit target
Performance Dashboard
The stats table shows:
Current position status (In Long/Short or Waiting for signal)
Entry, stop, and target prices when in a trade
Win/loss record
Win rate percentage with color coding
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. Signal Sensitivity (1-10)
Controls the minimum time between signals (cooldown period):
1 = 2 bars between signals (most frequent)
5 = 10 bars between signals (balanced)
10 = 20 bars between signals (most selective)
Lower values generate more signals, higher values filter for better setups.
2. Stop Loss Distance
Determines how stops are calculated using ATR (Average True Range):
Tight = 1.5x ATR from entry
Normal = 2.0x ATR from entry
Wide = 2.5x ATR from entry
ATR adapts to market volatility, so stops are tighter in calm markets and wider in volatile markets.
3. Take Profit Target
Sets your risk-to-reward ratio:
1.5R = Target is 1.5 times your risk
2R = Target is 2 times your risk
3R = Target is 3 times your risk
Example: With a $100 stop distance and 2R setting, your take profit will be $200 away from entry.
4. Show Stats Table
Toggle to show/hide the performance dashboard in the top-right corner.
5. Show Risk Lines
Toggle to show/hide the entry/stop/target lines on the chart.
📋 HOW TO USE
Step 1: Apply to Chart
Add the indicator to your preferred instrument and timeframe (daily recommended).
Step 2: Wait for Signal
A BUY or SELL label will appear on the chart when conditions align.
Step 3: Enter Position
Enter at the close of the signal candle in the indicated direction.
Step 4: Set Risk Parameters Use the displayed lines:
Red line = Your stop loss
Green line = Your take profit
Step 5: Hold Position
Wait for the position to hit either the stop or target. No new signals will appear while you're in a position.
Step 6: Review Results
Check the stats table to track your win rate and adjust settings if needed.
🎯 RISK MANAGEMENT
Stop Loss Calculation
Stops are based on ATR (Average True Range) which measures recent price volatility:
In quiet markets: Stops are placed closer to entry
In volatile markets: Stops are placed further away
This adaptive approach helps prevent stop-hunting while maintaining appropriate risk levels.
Take Profit Calculation
Targets are calculated as a multiple of your stop distance:
If stop is 50 points away and you use 2R, target is 100 points away
Maintains consistent risk-reward ratios across all trades
Required Win Rates To break even after fees:
1.5R requires ~40% win rate
2R requires ~34% win rate
3R requires ~25% win rate
📊 RECOMMENDED USAGE
Timeframes:
Daily charts show strongest performance in testing
4H and 1H timeframes work but may have lower win rates
Lower timeframes generate more signals but reduced quality
Markets:
Works on all instruments: Stocks, Forex, Crypto, Futures, Indices
Best suited for trending markets
May generate false signals in tight ranges or choppy conditions
The Alchemist's Trend [wjdtks255]📊 The Alchemist's Trend - Filtered Trading Guide
This indicator, named The Alchemist's Trend, is a High-Confidence Trend-Following Strategy designed to maximize reliability. It generates a final entry signal only when the QQE (Quantitative Qualitative Estimation) momentum signal is validated by four robust filters: Long-Term Trend (MA200), Mid-Term Trend (HMA), Momentum Strength (CCI), and Higher Timeframe (HTF) Trend.
1. Indicator Mechanism and Core Components
A. Chart Visualization and Trend Identification
Trend Line (HMA): Appears as a Yellow or Purple Thick Line. It represents the direction of the current short/mid-term market trend. Candle colors follow this line.
MA 200: Appears as a Dotted Line (color configurable in settings). It is the Long-Term Trend Line. Price above it suggests a long-term bullish view; below it, a long-term bearish view.
Candle Background: Appears as Light Yellow or Purple. It matches the Trend Line direction, providing a visual cue of the trend's strength.
B. The Four-Filter System
For a confirmed entry signal ('L' or 'S') to fire, the following four conditions must all align in the same direction:
QQE (Momentum Base): Generates the primary Long/Short crossover signal.
MA & HMA (Trend Alignment):
For Long Entries: Price must be above both the MA200 and the HMA Trend Line.
For Short Entries: Price must be below both the MA200 and the HMA Trend Line.
CCI (Momentum Strengthening):
For Long Entries: CCI value must be above +50. (Confirms strong buying momentum)
For Short Entries: CCI value must be below -50. (Confirms strong selling momentum)
HTF (Higher Timeframe Trend): Checks if the price on the set higher timeframe (default 4H) is above its own Trend Line, confirming alignment with the broader market direction.
2. Trading Strategy and Usage Rules
This indicator aims to maximize signal reliability over frequency.
🔔 Entry Rule
Enter a trade only when the 'L' or 'S' label appears on the chart AND the Action panel on the dashboard displays LONG SIGNAL or SHORT SIGNAL.
Long Entry (L):
Condition: 'L' label appears (All Long conditions met).
Verification: Confirm the Trend Line and candle color are in the yellow range.
Short Entry (S):
Condition: 'S' label appears (All Short conditions met).
Verification: Confirm the Trend Line and candle color are in the purple range.
🛡️ Risk and Position Management
Stop-Loss (SL): A common practice is to place the Stop-Loss below the low of the signal candle (for Long) or above the high of the signal candle (for Short), or beyond a recent significant support/resistance level.
Exit Strategy (Three Options):
Opposite Signal: Close the position immediately if the opposite signal ('S' during a Long, or 'L' during a Short) occurs.
RSI Extremes: Consider taking partial profits if the RSI reaches 70 (for Long) or 30 (for Short), indicating potential exhaustion.
Trend Line Crossover: Exit the position if the price breaks or crosses the Trend Line, causing the candle color to change.
🖥️ Dashboard Utilization Tips
The dashboard provides contextual information to validate the signal:
RSI: Signals occurring within the neutral 30-70 zone suggest a stronger developing trend. If near 70/30, consider the risk of reversal.
Vol Status ('High'): If the volume status is 'High' when the signal fires, the signal's power is likely high, indicating a higher probability of significant movement.
Day High/Low: Use these values as a secondary reference for setting initial Stop-Loss or Take-Profit targets.

## 📋 WHY YM? LEVERAGING LOW VOLATILITY
### The YM Advantage
Most traders avoid YM because "it doesn't move enough." This is precisely why it's perfect for precision scalping:

|--------|----|----|-----------|
| **Daily Range** | 300-600 pts | 150-400 pts | More predictable moves |
| **Tick Value** | $5/tick (4 ticks/pt) | $5/tick (1 tick/pt) | Simpler math |
| **Retail Noise** | High | Low | Cleaner signals |
| **Whipsaws** | Frequent | Rare | Fewer fakeouts |
| **Trend Persistence** | Short | Long | Easier holds |
| **Fill Quality** | Variable | Consistent | Better execution |
### Why 3-7 Trades is the Sweet Spot

## 🔧 YM-SPECIFIC OPTIMIZATIONS
This unified indicator has been specifically tuned for YM's characteristics:
### Tier Thresholds
| Tier | NQ (Original) | YM (Optimized) | Rationale |
|------|---------------|----------------|-----------|
| S-Tier | 100 pts | **50 pts** | YM's daily range is ~50% of NQ |
| A-Tier | 50 pts | **25 pts** | Proportional scaling |
| B-Tier | 20 pts | **12 pts** | Still 5%+ of typical daily range |
### Filter Adjustments
| Filter | NQ Value | YM Value | Why |
|--------|----------|----------|-----|
| Volume Ratio | 1.5x | **1.8x** | Higher bar = less retail noise |
| Delta Threshold | 60% | **62%** | Tighter for cleaner signals |
| Body Ratio | 70% | **72%** | More conviction required |
| Range Multiplier | 1.3x | **1.4x** | Bigger move = real signal |
| Gap ATR% | 30% | **25%** | Smaller gaps still significant |
| Zone Age | 50 bars | **75 bars** | Zones last longer in slow market |
### Why These Changes Work
1. **Higher Volume Bar**: YM has more institutional flow. Requiring 1.8x volume ensures we're catching real moves, not retail chop.
2. **Tighter Delta**: With less noise, we can demand clearer buyer/seller dominance before entering.
3. **Longer Zone Life**: YM trends persist longer. A zone that would be stale in NQ is still viable in YM.
4. **Smaller Gap Threshold**: YM gaps are naturally smaller. 25% of ATR in YM is significant institutional activity.

## 📐 SIGNAL TYPES EXPLAINED
### 1. GRA Tier Signals (S🎯, A🎯, B🎯)
These are the primary signals from the merged GRA system:
```
TIER SIGNAL REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Point movement meets tier threshold
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.8x average
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% (buy or sell dominance)
├── ✓ Body ≥ 72% of candle range
├── ✓ Range ≥ 1.4x average
├── ✓ Small opposite wick (<50% of body)
├── ✓ CVD confirms direction (if enabled)
├── ✓ Active session (LDN/NY/PWR)
└── ✓ Confluence Score ≥ minimum (default 5)
```
### 2. Zone Entry Signals (Z🎯)
When price enters a DeepFlow zone with confirmation:
```
ZONE ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Price inside fresh/tested zone (not broken)
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% in zone direction
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.5x average
└── ✓ Active session
NOTE: Z🎯 only appears when NOT already showing tier signal
(prevents duplicate signals on same candle)
```
### 3. Single Print Markers (SP)
Mark institutional impulse candles for future S/R:
```
SINGLE PRINT REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Range ≥ 1.6x average
├── ✓ Body ≥ 72% of range
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.8x average
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% confirms direction
└── ✓ Active session
USE: Horizontal lines at high/low act as future S/R
```
---
## 🎯 TRADING STRATEGIES
### Strategy 1: Zone + Tier Confluence (Highest Probability)
```
THE ULTIMATE YM SETUP:
═══════════════════════
Setup:
1. Active DeepFlow zone exists (green box below for long)
2. Price pulls back INTO the zone
3. Tier signal fires INSIDE the zone (S🎯/A🎯)
4. Score shows 7+/10
Entry: Signal candle close
Stop: Below zone bottom (for longs)
Target: Based on tier (1.5-2.5:1 R:R)
Why It Works:
• Zone = institutional limit orders
• Tier signal = momentum confirmation
• Double confirmation = high probability
Expected Win Rate: 70-75%
```
### Strategy 2: Pure Tier Signal with POC Stop
```
SNIPER TIER TRADE:
══════════════════
Setup:
1. Tier signal appears (preferably A or S)
2. Score ≥ 5/10
3. Note POC level on signal candle
4. Red/green stop/target lines appear
Entry: Signal candle close
Stop: Beyond POC (shown on chart)
Target: Auto-calculated based on tier
Key: POC placement matters
• POC near candle bottom (longs) = STRONG
• POC in middle = weaker signal
• POC at extreme = possible exhaustion
Expected Win Rate: 60-65%
```
### Strategy 3: Zone Bounce (Continuation)
```
ZONE BOUNCE TRADE:
══════════════════
Setup:
1. Fresh zone created during session
2. Price leaves zone, moves in zone direction
3. Price returns to test zone (within 15 bars)
4. Z🎯 signal appears or rejection candle forms
Entry: At CE line (middle of zone)
Stop: Beyond zone edge
Target: Previous swing high/low
Why It Works:
• Zones represent unfilled orders
• First retest often finds support/resistance
• Lower volatility = cleaner bounces
Expected Win Rate: 55-60%
```
### Strategy 4: Single Print Scalp
```
SINGLE PRINT SCALP:
═══════════════════
Setup:
1. Single Print (SP) marker appears
2. Note the gold/purple lines at high/low
3. Wait for price to return to SP level
4. Look for rejection or tier signal at level
Entry: At SP line with confirmation
Stop: Beyond the SP line
Target: Quick 1:1 or to next structure
Why It Works:
• SP = price moved too fast, orders unfilled
• Price often returns to "fill" these levels
• YM's slower pace makes retests likely
Expected Win Rate: 55-60%
```

FPT - DCA ModelFPT - DCA Model is a simple but powerful tool to backtest a weekly “buy the dip” DCA plan with dynamic position sizing and partial profit-taking.
🔹 Core Idea
- Invest a fixed amount every week (on Friday closes)
- Buy more aggressively when price trades at a discount from its 52-week high
- Take partial profits when price stretches too far above the daily EMA50
- Track the performance of your DCA plan vs a simple buy-and-hold from the same start date
⚙ How it works
1. Weekly DCA (on Daily timeframe)
- On each Friday after the Start Date:
- Add the “Weekly contribution” to the cash pool.
- If the close is below the “Discount from 52W high” level:
→ FULL DCA: use the full weekly contribution + an extra booster from your stash (up to “Max extra stash used on dip”).
→ Marked on the chart with a small green triangle under the bar.
- Otherwise:
→ HALF DCA: invest only 50% of the weekly contribution and keep the other 50% as stash (uninvested cash).
→ Marked with a small blue triangle under the bar.
2. 52-Week High Discount Logic
- The script computes the 52-week high as the highest daily high of the last 252 trading days.
- The “discount level” is: 52W high × (1 – Discount%).
- When price is at or below this level, dips are treated as buying opportunities and the model allocates more.
3. Selling Logic (Partial Take Profit)
- When the close is above the daily EMA50 by the selected percentage:
→ Sell the given “Sell portion of qty (%)” of your current holdings.
→ Marked with a small red triangle above the bar.
- This behaves like a gradual profit-taking system: if price stays extended above EMA50, multiple partial sells can occur over time.
📊 Panel (top-right)
The panel summarizes the state of your DCA plan:
- Weeks: number of DCA weeks since Start Date
- Total deposit: total money contributed (sum of all weekly contributions)
- Shares qty: total number of shares accumulated
- Avg price: volume-weighted average entry price
- Shares value: current market value of all shares (qty × close)
- Cash: uninvested cash (including saved stash)
- Total equity: Shares value + Cash
- DCA % PnL: performance of the DCA plan vs total deposits
- Stock % since start: performance of the underlying asset since the Start Date
✅ Recommended Use
- Timeframe: Daily (the DCA engine is designed to run on daily bars and Friday closes).
- Works best on stocks, ETFs or indices where a 52-week high is a meaningful reference.
- You can tune:
- Weekly contribution
- Discount from 52W high
- Booster amount
- EMA50 extension threshold and sell portion
⚠ Notes & Disclaimer
- This script is a backtesting and educational tool. It does not place real orders.
- Past performance does not guarantee future results.
- Always combine DCA and risk management with your own research and judgment.

Mean Reversion — BB + Z-Score + RSI + EMA200 (TP at Opposite Z)This is a systematic mean-reversion framework for index futures and other liquid assets.
This strategy combines Bollinger Bands, Z-Score dislocation, RSI extremes, and a trend-filtering EMA200 to capture short-term mean-reversion inefficiencies in NQ1!. It is designed for high-volatility conditions and uses a precise exit model based on opposite-side Z-Score targets and dynamic mid-band failure detection.
🔍 Entry Logic (Mean Reversion) :
The strategy enters trades only when multiple confluence signals align:
Long Setup
Price at or below the lower Bollinger Band
Z-Score ≤ –Threshold (deep statistical deviation)
RSI ≤ oversold level
Price below the EMA-200 (countertrend mean-reversion only)
Cooldown must be completed
No open position
Short Setup
Price at or above the upper Bollinger Band
Z-Score ≥ Threshold
RSI ≥ overbought level
Price above the EMA-200
Cooldown complete
No open position
This multi-signal gate filters out weak reversions and focuses on mature dislocations.
🎯 Take-Profit Model: Opposite-Side Z-Score Target :
Once in a trade, take-profit is set by solving for the price where the Z-Score reaches the opposite side:
Long TP = Z = +Threshold
Short TP = Z = –Threshold
This creates a symmetric statistical exit based on reverting to equilibrium plus overshoot.
🛡️ Stop-Loss System (Volatility-Aware) :
Stop losses combine:
A fixed base stop (points)
A standard-deviation volatility component
This adapts the SL to regime changes and avoids being shaken out during rare volatility spikes.
⏳ Half-Life Exit :
If a trade has not reverted within a fixed number of bars, it automatically closes.
This prevents “mean-reversion traps” during trending periods.
📉 Advanced Mid-Band Exit Logic (BB Basis Failure) :
This is the unique feature of the system.
After entry:
Wait for price to cross the Bollinger Basis (middle band) in the direction of the mean.
Start a 5-bar delay timer.
After 5 bars, the strategy becomes “armed.”
Once armed:
If price fails back through the mean, exit immediately.
Intrabar exits trigger precisely (with tick-level precision if Bar Magnifier is enabled).
This protects profits and exits trades at the first sign of mean-failure.
⏱️ Cooldown System :
After each closed trade, a cooldown period prevents immediate re-entry.
This avoids clustering and improves statistical independence of trades.
🖥️ What This Strategy Is Best For :
High-volatility intraday NQ conditions
Statistical mean reversion with structured confluence
Traders who want clean, rule-based entries
Avoiding trend-day traps using EMA and half-life logic
📊 Included Visual Elements :
Bollinger Bands (Upper, Basis, Lower)
BUY/SELL markers at signal generation
Optional alerts for automated monitoring
🚀 Summary :
This is a precision mean-reversion system built around volatility bands, statistical dislocation, and price-behavior confirmation. By combining Z-Score, RSI, EMA200 filtering, and a sophisticated mid-band failure exit, this model captures high-probability reversions while avoiding the common pitfalls of naive band-touch systems.
MTF Trading Helper & Multi AlertsHi dear fellows, I´m using this indicator for my trading, so every then and when I will publish updates on this one.
This indicator should help to identify the right trading setup. I´m using it to trade index futures and stocks.
MTF Trading Helper & Multi Alerts
Overview
This indicator provides a clear visual representation of trend direction across three timeframes. It helps traders identify trend alignment, potential reversals, and optimal entry/exit points by analyzing the relationship between different smoothed timeframes.
You can set up multiple alerts (as one alert in Tradingview)
How It Works
The indicator displays three colored circles representing the smoothed candle direction on three different timeframes:
Bottom plot represents the overall trend direction, the plot in the middle shows intermediate momentum, and the one on top captures short-term price action.
When a color change occurs, the circle appears in a darker shade to highlight the transition.
🟢 Green = Bullish - 🔴 Red = Bearish
This change can also trigger multiple alerts.
Timeframe Settings - important
Choose between two trading setups, either for:
Intraday 1-minute candles or 1h for swing trading. Set up your chart accordingly to that timeframe.
Intraday | 1Min chart candles
Swing | 1 hour chart candles
Plots
TF3 represents the overall trend direction (bottom), TF2 shows intermediate momentum (middle), and TF1 captures short-term price action (top).
Interpretation & Strategy Alerts
1. Trend Bullish (TF3 turns Green)
The higher timeframe has shifted bullish - a potential new uptrend is forming.
Example: You're watching ES-mini on the Intraday setting. TF3 turns green after being red for several days. This signals the broader trend may be shifting bullish - consider looking for long opportunities.
2. Trend Bearish (TF3 turns Red)
The higher timeframe has shifted bearish - consider protecting profits or exiting long positions.
Example: You hold a long position in Es-mini. TF3 turns red, indicating the macro trend is weakening. This is your signal to take profits or tighten stop-losses.
3. Possible Accumulation (TF3 Red + TF2 turns Green)
While the overall trend is still bearish, the medium timeframe shows buying pressure. Smart money may be accumulating - watch closely for a potential trend reversal.
Example: Es-mini has been in a downtrend (TF3 red). Suddenly TF2 turns green while TF3 remains red. This could indicate institutional buying before a reversal. Don't buy yet, but add it to your watchlist and wait for confirmation.
4. Trend Continuation (TF3 Green + TF2 turns Green)
The medium timeframe realigns with the bullish macro trend - a potential buying opportunity as momentum returns to the uptrend.
Example: Es-mini is in an uptrend (TF3 green). After a pullback, TF2 was red but now turns green again. The pullback appears to be over - this is a trend continuation signal and a potential entry point.
5. Buy the Dip (TF3 + TF2 Green + TF1 turns Green)
All timeframes are now aligned bullish. The short-term pullback is complete and price is resuming the uptrend - optimal entry for short-term trades.
Example: Es-mini is trending up (TF3 + TF2 green). A small dip caused TF1 to turn red briefly. When TF1 turns green again, all three timeframes are aligned - this is your "Buy the Dip" signal with strong confirmation.
6. Sell the Dip (TF3 + TF2 Green + TF1 turns Red)
Short-term weakness within an uptrend. This can be used to take partial profits, wait for a better entry, or trail stops tighter.
Example: You're long on ES-mini with TF3 and TF2 green. TF1 turns red, indicating short-term selling pressure. Consider taking partial profits here and wait for TF1 to turn green again (Buy the Dip) to add back to your position.
How to Use
Choose your scenario: Select "Intraday" 1min-chart for day trading or "Swing" 1h-chart for swingtrading
Enable alerts: Turn on the strategy alerts you want to receive in the settings
Wait for signals: Let the indicator notify you when conditions align
Confirm with price action: Always use additional confirmation before entering trades
Best Practices
✅ Use TF3 as your trend filter - only take longs when TF3 turns green and hold them :)
✅ Use TF2 for timing - wait for TF2 to align with TF3 for swings.
✅ Use TF2 for early entries (accumulation phase) when TF3 is still red. Watch out!
✅ Use TF1 for entries when TF3 and TF2 are green. Only buy if TF1 is red. Keep it short and sweet.
✅ Combine with support/resistance levels for better entries
✅ Use proper risk management - no indicator is 100% accurate

🎓 UNDERSTANDING THE METHODOLOGY
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
This indicator is built on three core concepts:
1. ORDER FLOW THEORY
Markets move between premium (expensive) and discount (cheap) zones. Smart money accumulates in discount zones and distributes in premium zones. This indicator identifies these zones automatically.
2. ADAPTIVE TREND FOLLOWING
Unlike fixed-period moving averages, the Elite Trend Engine adjusts to current market volatility, providing more accurate trend signals in both trending and ranging conditions.
3. CONFLUENCE-BASED ENTRIES
Signals only trigger when multiple conditions align:
- Price in correct zone (premium for shorts, discount for longs)
- Trend confirmation (cloud color matches direction)
- Volume validation (spike or climax present)
- Price action strength (strong rejection candles)
This multi-layer approach dramatically reduces false signals.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔔 ALERT SETUP
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
This indicator includes 5 alert types:
1. Long Signal → Triggers when buy conditions met
2. Short Signal → Triggers when sell conditions met
3. Volume Climax → Warns of pot
Mean-Reversion with CooldownThis strategy requires no indicators or fundamental analysis. It is designed for longer-term positions and works especially well on unleveraged instruments with strong long-term upward trends, such as precious metals. Feel free to experiment with different timeframes — I’ve found that 1-hour charts work particularly well for cryptocurrencies.
The idea is to filter out ongoing bear phases as effectively as possible and capitalize on long-term bull runs.
The script implements an idea that came to me in a state of complete sleep deprivation: open a random long position with a fixed take-profit (TP) and a tight stop-loss (SL).
If the TP is hit — great, we simply try again.
If the SL is triggered — too bad, we pause for a while and then try again.
## Cooldown (Waiting) Mechanism
The waiting mechanism is simple: the more consecutive SL hits we get, the longer we wait before opening the next trade. The waiting time is measured in closed candles, and thus depends on the timeframe you are using.
## Two cooldown calculation modes are currently supported:
### 1. FIBONACCI
The cooldown follows the Fibonacci sequence, based on the number of consecutive losses:
1st loss → wait 1 bar
2nd loss → wait 1 bar
3rd loss → wait 2 or 3 bars (depending on definition)
4th loss → wait 3 or 5 bars
etc.
### 2. POWER OF TWO
The cooldown increases exponentially:
1st loss → wait 2 bars
2nd loss → wait 4 bars
3rd loss → wait 8 bars
4th loss → wait 16 bars
and so on, using the formula 2ⁿ.
## Configurable Parameters
### Cooldown Pause Calculation
The settings allow you to define the SL and TP as percentages of the position value.
The "Cooldown Pause Calculation" option determines how the next cooldown duration is computed after a losing trade.
The system keeps track of how many consecutive losses have occurred since the last profitable trade. That counter is then used to compute how many bars we must wait before opening the next position.
### Maximum Cooldown
The "Max Cooldown Candles" setting defines the maximum number of bars we are allowed to wait before placing a new trade. This prevents the strategy from “locking itself out” for too long and mitigates the fear of missing out (FOMO).
Once the cooldown duration reaches this maximum, the system essentially wraps around and starts the progression again. In the script, this is handled using a simple modulo operation based on the chosen maximum.
KAMA Flip strategyI built this strategy because I wanted something that doesn’t overcomplicate trading.
No 20 indicators, no guessing, no “maybe I should close here.”
Just a clear momentum flip, a defined stop, and a defined take profit. (for me on 1D BTC chart it works best with 6% stoploss and 3% takeprofit, lookback should be 40, everything else standard)
The idea is simple: when momentum shifts, I want to be on the right side of it.
KAMA is good for this because it speeds up when the market moves and slows down when it doesn’t.
I normalize it so it becomes a clean zero-line oscillator.
Above zero means momentum is turning up. Below zero means it’s turning down.
That’s the entire entry logic. A flip is a flip.
The exit logic is just as simple: one stop loss, one take profit, both fixed percentages from the entry.
The position closes 100% at the target or the stop. No scaling in, no scaling out, no trailing.
It’s straightforward and easy to analyze because every trade has the exact same structure.
I originally made this for BTC on the daily chart, but nothing stops you from trying it on other charts.
If you want it only to go long, only to go short, or take both sides, you can set that.
All the KAMA parameters are open so you can play with how reactive the signal is.
The visuals and SL/TP lines can be turned on or off depending on how clean you want your chart.
This isn’t financial advice. It’s just a system I like because it’s simple, objective, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do.
Test it, adjust it, break it, rebuild it — do whatever fits your own approach.
Third eye • StrategyThird eye • Strategy – User Guide
1. Idea & Concept
Third eye • Strategy combines three things into one system:
Ichimoku Cloud – to define market regime and support/resistance.
Moving Average (trend filter) – to trade only in the dominant direction.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index) – to generate precise entry signals on momentum breakouts.
The script is a strategy, not an indicator: it can backtest entries, exits, SL, TP and BreakEven logic automatically.
2. Indicators Used
2.1 Ichimoku
Standard Ichimoku settings (by default 9/26/52/26) are used:
Conversion Line (Tenkan-sen)
Base Line (Kijun-sen)
Leading Span A & B (Kumo Cloud)
Lagging Span is calculated but hidden from the chart (for visual simplicity).
From the cloud we derive:
kumoTop – top of the cloud under current price.
kumoBottom – bottom of the cloud under current price.
Flags:
is_above_kumo – price above the cloud.
is_below_kumo – price below the cloud.
is_in_kumo – price inside the cloud.
These conditions are used as trend / regime filters and for stop-loss & trailing stops.
2.2 Moving Average
You can optionally display and use a trend MA:
Types: SMA, EMA, DEMA, WMA
Length: configurable (default 200)
Source: default close
Filter idea:
If MA Direction Filter is ON:
When Close > MA → strategy allows only Long signals.
When Close < MA → strategy allows only Short signals.
The MA is plotted on the chart (if enabled).
2.3 CCI & Panel
The CCI (Commodity Channel Index) is used for entry timing:
CCI length and source are configurable (default length 20, source hlc3).
Two thresholds:
CCI Upper Threshold (Long) – default +100
CCI Lower Threshold (Short) – default –100
Signals:
Long signal:
CCI crosses up through the upper threshold
cci_val < upper_threshold and cci_val > upper_threshold
Short signal:
CCI crosses down through the lower threshold
cci_val > lower_threshold and cci_val < lower_threshold
There is a panel (table) in the bottom-right corner:
Shows current CCI value.
Shows filter status as colored dots:
Green = filter enabled and passed.
Red = filter enabled and blocking trades.
Gray = filter is disabled.
Filters shown in the panel:
Ichimoku Cloud filter (Long/Short)
Ichimoku Lines filter (Conversion/Base vs Cloud)
MA Direction filter
3. Filters & Trade Direction
All filters can be turned ON/OFF independently.
3.1 Ichimoku Cloud Filter
Purpose: trade only when price is clearly above or below the Kumo.
Long Cloud Filter (Use Ichimoku Cloud Filter) – when enabled:
Long trades only if close > cloud top.
Short Cloud Filter – when enabled:
Short trades only if close < cloud bottom.
If the cloud filter is disabled, this condition is ignored.
3.2 Ichimoku Lines Above/Below Cloud
Purpose: stronger trend confirmation: Ichimoku lines should also be on the “correct” side of the cloud.
Long Lines Filter:
Long allowed only if Conversion Line and Base Line are both above the cloud.
Short Lines Filter:
Short allowed only if both lines are below the cloud.
If this filter is OFF, the conditions are not checked.
3.3 MA Direction Filter
As described above:
When ON:
Close > MA → only Longs.
Close < MA → only Shorts.
4. Anti-Re-Entry Logic (Cloud Touch Reset)
The strategy uses internal flags to avoid continuous re-entries in the same direction without a reset.
Two flags:
allowLong
allowShort
After a Long entry, allowLong is set to false, allowShort to true.
After a Short entry, allowShort is set to false, allowLong to true.
Flags are reset when price touches the Kumo:
If Low goes into the cloud → allowLong = true
If High goes into the cloud → allowShort = true
If Close is inside the cloud → both allowLong and allowShort are set to true
There is a key option:
Wait Position Close Before Flag Reset
If ON: cloud touch will reset flags only when there is no open position.
If OFF: flags can be reset even while a trade is open.
This gives a kind of regime-based re-entry control: after a trend leg, you wait for a “cloud interaction” to allow new signals.
5. Risk Management
All risk management is handled inside the strategy.
5.1 Position Sizing
Order Size % of Equity – default 10%
The strategy calculates:
position_value = equity * (Order Size % / 100)
position_qty = position_value / close
So position size automatically adapts to your current equity.
5.2 Take Profit Modes
You can choose one of two TP modes:
Percent
Fibonacci
5.2.1 Percent Mode
Single Take Profit at X% from entry (default 2%).
For Long:
TP = entry_price * (1 + tp_pct / 100)
For Short:
TP = entry_price * (1 - tp_pct / 100)
One strategy.exit per side is used: "Long TP/SL" and "Short TP/SL".
5.2.2 Fibonacci Mode (2 partial TPs)
In this mode, TP levels are based on a virtual Fib-style extension between entry and stop-loss.
Inputs:
Fib TP1 Level (default 1.618)
Fib TP2 Level (default 2.5)
TP1 Share % (Fib) (default 50%)
TP2 share is automatically 100% - TP1 share.
Process for Long:
Compute a reference Stop (see SL section below) → sl_for_fib.
Compute distance: dist = entry_price - sl_for_fib.
TP levels:
TP1 = entry_price + dist * (Fib TP1 Level - 1)
TP2 = entry_price + dist * (Fib TP2 Level - 1)
For Short, the logic is mirrored.
Two exits are used:
TP1 – closes TP1 share % of position.
TP2 – closes remaining TP2 share %.
Same stop is used for both partial exits.
5.3 Stop-Loss Modes
You can choose one of three Stop Loss modes:
Stable – fixed % from entry.
Ichimoku – fixed level derived from the Kumo.
Ichimoku Trailing – dynamic SL following the cloud.
5.3.1 Stable SL
For Long:
SL = entry_price * (1 - Stable SL % / 100)
For Short:
SL = entry_price * (1 + Stable SL % / 100)
Used both for Percent TP mode and as reference for Fib TP if Kumo is not available.
5.3.2 Ichimoku SL (fixed, non-trailing)
At the time of a new trade:
For Long:
Base SL = cloud bottom minus small offset (%)
For Short:
Base SL = cloud top plus small offset (%)
The offset is configurable: Ichimoku SL Offset %.
Once computed, that SL level is fixed for this trade.
5.3.3 Ichimoku Trailing SL
Similar to Ichimoku SL, but recomputed each bar:
For Long:
SL = cloud bottom – offset
For Short:
SL = cloud top + offset
A red trailing SL line is drawn on the chart to visualize current stop level.
This trailing SL is also used as reference for BreakEven and for Fib TP distance.
6. BreakEven Logic (with BE Lines)
BreakEven is optional and supports two modes:
Percent
Fibonacci
Inputs:
Percent mode:
BE Trigger % (from entry) – move SL to BE when price goes this % in profit.
BE Offset % from entry – SL will be set to entry ± this offset.
Fibonacci mode:
BE Fib Level – Fib level at which BE will be activated (default 1.618, same style as TP).
BE Offset % from entry – how far from entry to place BE stop.
The logic:
Before BE is triggered, SL follows its normal mode (Stable/Ichimoku/Ichimoku Trailing).
When BE triggers:
For Long:
New SL = max(current SL, BE SL).
For Short:
New SL = min(current SL, BE SL).
This means BE will never loosen the stop – only tighten it.
When BE is activated, the strategy draws a violet horizontal line at the BreakEven level (once per trade).
BE state is cleared when the position is closed or when a new position is opened.
7. Entry & Exit Logic (Summary)
7.1 Long Entry
Conditions for a Long:
CCI signal:
CCI crosses up through the upper threshold.
Ichimoku Cloud Filter (optional):
If enabled → price must be above the Kumo.
Ichimoku Lines Filter (optional):
If enabled → Conversion Line and Base Line must be above the Kumo.
MA Direction Filter (optional):
If enabled → Close must be above the chosen MA.
Anti-re-entry flag:
allowLong must be true (cloud-based reset).
Position check:
Long entries are allowed when current position size ≤ 0 (so it can also reverse from short to long).
If all these conditions are true, the strategy sends:
strategy.entry("Long", strategy.long, qty = calculated_qty)
After entry:
allowLong = false
allowShort = true
7.2 Short Entry
Same structure, mirrored:
CCI signal:
CCI crosses down through the lower threshold.
Cloud filter: price must be below cloud (if enabled).
Lines filter: conversion & base must be below cloud (if enabled).
MA filter: Close must be below MA (if enabled).
allowShort must be true.
Position check: position size ≥ 0 (allows reversal from long to short).
Then:
strategy.entry("Short", strategy.short, qty = calculated_qty)
Flags update:
allowShort = false
allowLong = true
7.3 Exits
While in a position:
The strategy continuously recalculates SL (depending on chosen mode) and, in Percent mode, TP.
In Fib mode, fixed TP levels are computed at entry.
BreakEven may raise/tighten the SL if its conditions are met.
Exits are executed via strategy.exit:
Percent mode: one TP+SL exit per side.
Fib mode: two partial exits (TP1 and TP2) sharing the same SL.
At position open, the script also draws visual lines:
White line — entry price.
Green line(s) — TP level(s).
Red line — SL (if not using Ichimoku Trailing; with trailing, the red line is updated dynamically).
Maximum of 30 lines are kept to avoid clutter.
8. How to Use the Strategy
Choose market & timeframe
Works well on trending instruments. Try crypto, FX or indices on H1–H4, or intraday if you prefer more trades.
Adjust Ichimoku settings
Keep defaults (9/26/52/26) or adapt to your timeframe.
Configure Moving Average
Typical: EMA 200 as a trend filter.
Turn MA Direction Filter ON if you want to trade only with the main trend.
Set CCI thresholds
Default ±100 is classic.
Lower thresholds → more signals, higher noise.
Higher thresholds → fewer but stronger signals.
Enable/disable filters
Turn on Ichimoku Cloud and Ichimoku Lines if you want only “clean” trend trades.
Use Wait Position Close Before Flag Reset to control how often re-entries are allowed.
Choose TP & SL mode
Percent mode is simpler and easier to understand.
Fibonacci mode is more advanced: it aligns TP levels with the distance to stop, giving asymmetric RR setups (two partial TPs).
Choose Stable SL for fixed-risk trades, or Ichimoku / Ichimoku Trailing to tie stops to the cloud structure.
Set BreakEven
Enable BE if you want to lock in risk-free trades after a certain move.
Percent mode is straightforward; Fib mode keeps BreakEven in harmony with your Fib TP setup.
Run Backtest & Optimize
Press “Add to chart” → go to Strategy Tester.
Adjust parameters to your market and timeframe.
Look at equity curve, PF, drawdown, average trade, etc.
Live / Paper Trading
After you’re satisfied with backtest results, use the strategy to generate signals.
You can mirror entries/exits manually or connect them to alerts (if you build an alert-based execution layer).
