MIGHTY MTF EMA62EMA62 comes from Rob Booker trend trading system.
I do now own this, nor do I claim or charge money for this system.
More information about this system can be found on: www.robbooker.com
What I did:
1. hard coded all multi timeframe ema62.
2. using colorcoding for each timeframe:
EMA62 MTF (minutes)
1M = white
5M = purple
10M = yellow
15M = orange
30M = aqua
1H = gray
4H = green
8H = yellow
Daily = red
Note:
I've only tested this on Forex, I dont have experience with stocks-crypto.
Note:
This system is used to gauge Daily trend, intraday trend.
Strongly recommend to use it with other confirmation like support/resistance lines, trendlines, pitchforks, momentum oscillators.
Note:
Strongly recommend to read PDF if you want to trade this as stand alone.
Note:
Strongly recommend to use MTF analysis for better entries and understanding of higher timeframe trends.
Note:
When multiple ema62 are on top of eachother then we have no trend, suggesting consolidating market.
This occurs often at major support/resistance lines, Wedges, momentum oscillators OB/OS.
When multiple ema62 are opening up (upwards/downwards) then there's a suggestion of a trending market

VLM SpikeFeeling tired and just took a week break away from the busy and tough life. 🎊
Nothing special to mention today, just post a script I coded long time ago when I studied volume.
People always underestimate the importance of volume while drawing tons of trendlines on their charts .
A volume spike is a key to trading because it can tell us three messages, including the top, the bottom and the breakout.
Using Bollinger Band as a proxy, we can always spot two scenarios.
One ,when volume is declining below 1/2 SD of its average, price tends to move in one direction. But unusual volume above 1/2 SD of its average can reverse the original trend.
Hope u find it helpful and don't forget to follow my little account!!😄
Xtreme TrendDisclaimer: This base Script is derived and tweaked from Half Trend. But unlike halftrend, it doesn't repaint and signals come at different logic.
Background:
I was using this script and trading with this for a while. Few weeks back I had come across a similar Script being sold as premium in Tradingview for $100 per month. The seller has a lots of videos in youtube and claims that he has created this script by investing lakhs and it also takes consideration of price action !!! . No doubt he is a successful trader but if you watch his other videos you will realize that he trades with S/R, trendlines and price action. He speaks quite well, and the morphed videos give impressions that all his profits are from using this indicator. I fell for it, but then after using for a few days I had realized that both the indicators are almost same, but giving signals at different time. When I edited my indicator for a few settings, it appeared that now signals are also coming exactly at same point. I never wanted to publish this script, but this person was going on and on fooling people. So, I have decided to publish it here, as a protected code. Again this is no holy grail. Works well in trending market and hell in sideways.
How to Use:
PLEASE WAIT TILL CANDLE CLOSE, take entry in the beginning of next candle. Time frame: 5 mins for index, 15 mins - 30 mins for stocks
Add 200 EMA over it ( Personally I love using 50 MA) and buy when signal and price both are on same side. Example, buy when there is buy signal + price is above 200 EMA
Sell: When price is below 200 EMA and there is a sell signal on the indicator.
Seems better when you mix it with pivots, S/R etc.
please comment, if you find this useful.
BTC Fibonacci DMA350 TrendlinesAdapted from Tim Graham's Code.
See Original Inspiring Article from Phillip Swift at: @positivecrypto
When looking into BITSTAMP:BTCUSD 1D data in spreadsheet. Historically, BTC Highs Hit (Simple Daily Moving Average 350 Days) DMA350 in reverse Fibonacci Sequence Order
2013 Hit DMA350*8 before All Time High (ATH)
2017 Hit DMA350*5 before ATH
I expect 2021 to hit DMA350*3 ATH. When BTC hits DMA350*3 ATH, I suggest selling!
Scalping PullBack by AbhiSetup and hints:
When price is above the PAC(blue bars) we are only looking to buy as price comes back to the PAC, when price is below the PAC(red bars), we are only looking to sell when price comes back to the PAC
What we’re looking for when price comes back into the PAC we draw mini Trendlines (TL) utilising the Fractals and HH/LL points to guide your TL drawing.
Now look for the trend to pull back and break the drawn mini TL. That's is where we can place the scalp trade.
So we are looking for continuation signals in terms of a strong, momentum driven pullbacks of the PAC EMA(34).
The other EMAs are there to check for other Pullbacks when PAC EMA (34) is broken.
Other than the "SweetSpot Gold RN" indicator, you should not need any other indicator to scalp for pullbacks.
If you want to trade shallower Pullbacks for quicker scalps, try reducing the PAC and EMA combination lengths for example:
- 21 PAC and 55, 144, 377 for fast, medium, slow EMAs
- 13 PAC and 34, 89, 233 for fast, medium, slow EMAs
Each alert should be evaluated on it's own merits, the alerts are designed to highlight possible scalping trades from Pullback recoveries around the PAC.
Relative StrengthThis indicator is called Relative Strength and is no way related to RSI ( Relative strength indicator).
It is simply a ratio of asset A to asset B plotted. Usually it is used to look for strength vs a particular index. Since it is a ratio, all the trendlines work on it. The default index is NIFTY. You can change it any index/script you want to compare:
1. Script vs Index
2. Index vs Index
SpiralGrinder Ultimate Trading System SpiralGrinder Ultimate Trading System
SpiralGrinder Ultimate (SGU) is a unique type of Trading System dedicated for leverage-trading BTC on Bitmex platform. Since it's highly customized to give statistically reliable signals based exclusively on BTC/USD Perpetual Swaps BITMEX chart BITMEX:XBTUSD , using it with other BTC charts will give usable, but less reliable signals!
SpiralGrinder’s Ultimate first iteration was SpiralSwinger V1 indicator released in march 2019, since then much has been changed, different algos were developed and then thrown into the bin, until after 6 months of intensive work current version was developed, backtested on XBT/USD Perpetual Inverse Swap Contract chart from Bitmex exchange on whole chart history from late 2015 until January 2020, on these timeframes – 1d, 12h, 8h, 6h, 4h, 3h, 2h, 90m, 1h.
Indicator algo is based on idea of price being a so called "fractal" - when same price action patterns occur over and over from time to time on different timeframes be it 1D, 4h, 1h or even 15m! Every time a particular timeframe (TF) has suitable volatility and price action is exhibiting wave structure with distinct highs and lows there will be a situations when high probability trade setups are possible. To predict those recurrent situations SGU tracks more than 30 parameters (godmode oscillator and some it’s experimental derivatives, historical volatility coefficients, some time-based variables, ATR-based Trend lines, regular divergences… etc) comparing them against each other, so when “all stars are aligned” based on statistical model built into its algo and when price has enough potential to move in particular direction reaching some measured move target a SIGNAL to enter position is generated.
Theoretical True Winrate of this indicator is around 60%, while practical is somewhat under 50%. True Winrate is a percentage of trades that reached PREDICTED target be it 1R or 20R prediction, instead of just being a common winrate (used by most traders) - percentage of all profitable trades even though many of them didn’t reach initially predicted targets. True WinRate is tied to a signal generating algo implemented in SGU and cannot be changed unless a new more sophisticated algo is found by the developer of this indicator and is implemented in future updates!
Main User Interface of SGU consists of many elements that are developed to help manage trades more efficiently without any emotional impact on decision making process. Apart from obvious Long/Short signals there are also predicted targets that should be hit with some probability for every given signal, suggested stop loss levels corresponding to predicted RR. There are 4 ATR-based trendlines that help determine trend bias on current timeframe and to set intermediate take profit points on the way toward target, also there are indicators of regular divergences to show us weakness during uptrends and downtrends, also there are special warnings included when price closes behind particularly important ATR line with strength enough to continue further it’s movement in initial direction. Also there are 2 candle color-based systems available: one of monitoring how overbought or oversold is price on current TF, second is created to tell us overall trend sentiment - how strong is movement of price in particular direction.
Since price could move in the same fashion during prolonged periods of time there could be a particular TF when signals will be absent till price volatility and oscillator readings doesn’t change its character and become favorable (become synchronized with price action) for signals to be generated. That’s why this indicator should be monitored on multiple TFs at once – you’ll never know on which TF next signal will appear. There will be a multiple signals going on parallel at the SAME TIME, simultaneously in DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS: for example swing long trade based on signal from 12h TF, while having a scalp short at the same time based on 1h chart. Exploring this kind of optimized multi-tasking could be done only by splitting bankroll on multiple accounts registered on Bitmex platform.
Suggested timeframes to monitor for potential signals are empirically chosen that their round multiples should give 24H or 1440m=(24h x 60m) : 12h x 2 = 24h, 3h x 8 = 24h, 144m x 10 = 1440m=24h.
Therefore main timeframes are: 1D, 12h, 8h, 6h, 4h, 3h, 2h, 90m and 1h.
Additional timeframes to watch are: 288m, 144m, and 72m.
Timeframes under 1h aren’t tested yet, but could be traded with additional caution: 45m, 36m and 30m.
To track effectively all signals generated by SGU one should have at least PRO subscription plan paid on TradingView as this allows to use non-standard timeframes and maximum of 10 server-side alerts on price/indicators necessary to work with this indicator.
To do in near future: add volume weighted macd with custom settings as an additional confluence in algo to increase average win rate of signals.
Attention! Past performance of this indicator is not indicative of future results!

Automatic TrendlinesIntroduction
For a full free tutorial explaining this code in more detail, visit the backtest-rookies (.com) website.
This indicator will plot two trend lines at any given time. A resistance trend line and a support trend line. The resistance trend is shown with red circles and is created by joining swing highs together. The second is a support trend which is created by joining swing lows.
Since we need swings to make the trend, the trend line code contains code for the swing detection. You can play around with the swing detection to alter how frequently new trend lines are detected. Relying on swings also means that there will be some delay in trend detection depending on how you configure the swing detection. The higher you set rightbars, the more lag you will have before a trend is detected. However, at the same time the quality of the pivots found will increase. So it is a trade-off you need to come to terms with and decide what the best settings are for you.
Lines
A single trend line is made up of several components.
Pivot Points: Marked as blue or orange circles. There will be two pivots per trend.
Orange/Purple Lines: Connecting all pivot points. You will see these lines change direction slightly each time a new pivot is detected (new circles appear).
Green/Red Circle lines: Showing the trend line from the earliest moment a new trend is detected.
Blue Dashed lines: Joining the purple and green/red circle lines so the full trend line can be seen.
Note: The blue dashed lines use pine-scripts drawing functions. As such, there is a limit to how many of these can be placed on a chart. When the limit is reached, the oldest line will be removed so the newest can be drawn. This means that if you detect enough trends and scroll back in time, the blue dashed lines will disappear at some point!
20 Pips & Dip™ Indicator20 Pips & Dipp script based on a few different indicators which together provides powerful help for all level of traders, especially beginners. Also, script have toggles to switch on/off: Renko Reversal, EMA, HHLL, Support/Resistance, Daily Open modules.
1st Module – Renko Reversal Alerts Indicator. The Indicator point out a spot where the revers are happens. Any changes in Price that do not reach a minimum amount are usually filtered. This helps to keep attention on larger, significant moves, and helps not to avoid the minute fluctuations in the market.
How it’s works?
- ENTER a trade JUST AFTER 1 Renko brick is printed. BUY triangle (green buy text with green triangle) is generated if a bearish Renko Brick is followed by a bullish brick. In other words, a buy signal happens when a white block is drawn after a black one. The buy happens then at the closing price that may be higher than the top of the last brick. It can go two bricks up minus a tick or pip.
- EXIT that trade, and open a new reverse position, just after 1 Renko brick is printed in the opposite direction. SELL triangle (red sell text with red triangle) is generated if a bullish brick is followed by a bearish brick. In other words, a sell signal happens when a black block is drawn, after a white block. The same situation as with a buy signal happens on sell signals. There is an uncertainty on the close price that may go as far as one tick above the next potential bearish block.
How to create custom ALERTS? Right click on a sell or buy triangle > Add Alert > 20 Pips & Dipp > Choose between Long or Short opportunity. In options field choose ONCE PER BAR. All other options you can choose according to your personal needs. If you want alert for another option (i.e. Short opportunity) just add one more.
Just to know! To understand how those module work better to switch to Renko chart. But Renko Chart with Renko brick size & Timeframe less than 1 day available only for PRO+ accounts and better. Also, we need to say that TradingView platform do not provide TICK data as we know. So, it may confuse you. Be careful!
2nd Module – Moving Average Exponential. The exponential moving average (EMA) is a weighted moving average (WMA) that gives more weighting, or importance, to recent price data than the simple moving average (SMA) does. The EMA responds more quickly to recent price changes than the SMA. The formula for calculating the EMA just involves using a multiplier and starting with the SMA. Like all moving averages, this technical indicator is used to produce buy and sell signals based on crossovers and divergences from the historical average. By default, our EMA have 50 period. The 50 moving average is the standard swing-trading moving average and very popular. Most traders use it to ride trends because it’s the ideal compromise between too short and too long term. Some people call it medium-term.
How to use it? EMAs are commonly used in conjunction with other indicators to confirm significant market moves and to gauge their validity. For traders who trade intraday and fast-moving markets, the EMA is more applicable. Quite often, traders use EMAs to determine a trading bias. For example, if an EMA on a daily chart shows a strong upward trend, an intraday trader’s strategy may be to trade only from the long side on an intraday chart.
Limitations of EMA! An EMA relies wholly on historical data. Many people believe that markets are efficient - that is, that current market prices already reflect all available information. If markets are indeed efficient, using historical data should tell us nothing about the future direction of asset prices.
3rd Module - Pivot Points (High/Low). Also known as Bar Count Reversals, are used to anticipate potential price reversals. Pivot Point Highs are determined by the number of bars with lower highs on either side of a Pivot Point High. Pivot Point Lows are determined by the number of bars with higher lows on either side of a Pivot Point Low. Default period is 10.
How this indicator works? The longer the trend (the higher the period selected) before and after the Pivot Point, the more significant the Pivot Point. Pivot Points can be used to help determine where to draw trendlines in order to visualize price patterns.
Calculation! Pivot Point Highs are determined by the number of bars with lower highs on either side of a Pivot Point High. Pivot Point Lows are determined by the number of bars with higher lows on either side of a Pivot Point Low.
4th Module - Higher High Lower Low indicator. Higher high and higher lows and Lower lows and lower highs are trends in a chart. Stocks in general never go up or down in linear fashion, every rise is followed by correction and then again it may either go up or down, same is true for downtrend every fall is followed by a correction in the upward direction and then new downtrend or uptrend is followed. After every rise, the stock took breather corrected to some extent and then new uptrend began, when you see the correction every low is higher than the previous lows and every next peak is higher than it’s previous peak. This is higher highs and higher lows trend.
How it’s work? This script finds pivot highs and pivot lows then calculates Higher Highs, Higher Lows & Lower Lows, Lower Highs. And it calculates support/resistance by using HH-HL-LL-LH points. Generally, HH and HL shows up-trend, LL and LH shows down-trend. If price breaks resistance levels it means the trend is up or if price breaks support level it means the trend is down, so the script can change bar colour blue or black by default. if there is up-trend then bar colour is blue, or if down-trend then bar colour is black. Support and resistance levels change dynamically.
Trick! If you use smaller numbers for Left Hand/Right Hand sides then it will be more sensitive!
5th Module - Daily Open Price. The opening price is the price at which a security first trades upon the opening of an exchange on a trading day; for example, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) opens at precisely 9:30 a.m. Eastern time. The price of the first trade for any listed stock is its daily opening price. The opening price is an important marker for that day's trading activity, particularly for those interested in measuring short-term results such as day traders.
Important! If daily open price was higher than current price, crosses will be red. And if daily open price lower than current price crosses will be green. Colours change dynamically.
You need to know it! An opening price is not identical to the previous day's closing price. There are several day-trading strategies based on the opening price of a market or security. Research “Gap Fade and Fill” or “Fade”.

The WAD Machine - Bitcoin BeatsHello Hello Hello, and welcome back to Bitcoin Beats!
This is a Conglomeration of different scripts into 1 indicator that shows a bunch of different things.
This is not all my own work but also a mixture of features taken from other useful scripts.
I will say in terms of originality, it takes a certain level of skill to put this together and get it working so I'll take the credit for that.
This script does all that is said below:
- Plots fibonacci zones with adjustable days, weeks, months ect.
- Shows lower highs, higher lows, lower lows, lower highs after recognizing candle patterns(note that this is not predictive, just shows what has already happened).
- Plots a Price Action Channel(PAC).
The candles automatically adjust to the PAC to give Buy and Sell signals on most timeframes.
If the candles are blue, it means buy.
If the candles are red, it means sell.
If the candles are grey, you shouldn't be in a trade.
I will not state the profitability of this method but for this section of the indicator, it's designed for entries.
Exits require a more manual approach using your own trading initiative.
Beginner traders should exit when the channel is hit and the candle turns grey again.
However, more advanced traders can try to use the Fibonacci zones and other features to manage their positions.
- Plots general trendlines automatically with customization of the lines and the length they go for.
- Plots major sloping supports and resistances automatically.
PLEASE TRADE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Cheers, and good bye, from Bitcoin Beats.
High - Low Trend Indicator - (Expo)High - Low Trend Indicator - (Expo)
DESCRIPTION
This trend indicator is derived from the highest (High) and lowest (Low). The unique formula enables clarity in trends and fast response to market changes.
Negative trend
The market could be considered to be in a negative trend when the black price line is under the blue Midline and a major red cloud is created. For some markets, the orange- trendline can be switched on to identify the long-term trend in the market. So, if the price line is under the orange trendline the market is in a negative trend.
Positive trend
The market could be considered to be in a positive trend when the black price line is above the blue Midline and close to the upper-line. For some markets, the orange-trendline can be switched on to identify the long-term trend in the market. So, if the price line is above the orange trendline the market is in a positive trend.
The indicator should be used in combination with High – Low Trend Indicator Signal (Expo) to identify market changes.
HOW TO USE
1. Use the indicator to identify trends.
2. Use the indicator to find Entry points in trends.
3. Combine it with High – Low Trend Indicator Signal (Expo).

Ultimate Gemstone‘’Ultimate Gemstone = best indicator to accurately predict price movement based on momentum’’
This indicator is combination of multiple indicators (RSI, Stoch, GM, Moving averages & CCI) works on all the trading assets and time frames. Accurately predicts top and bottoms ( tested on all major crypto's, stocks and forex).
Comes with 6 different presets with different calculations giving additional flexibility to the user.
"Instructions How To Use"
This indicator is based on four different moving lines depicting momentum; first line (Aqua) is a fast trend line, which reacts rapidly to existing price action, second line (Purple) is slower and takes more price action into account, while third line (Yellow) is the slowest and depicts overall trend. Additionally, CCI/EMA moving line with changing color's (red/green) acts as a another trend confirmation tool.
The three moving lines acts as support and resistance depending on there location to each other. Non-moving parts include fibonacci support and resistance (68.2 & 38.2) areas of the oscillator. Different caution (Red, Green dots & background flashes) settings based on GM indicator to help identify perfect buying and selling opportunities. Additionally, the oscillator has oversold, overbought, bullish and bearish control zones similar to RSI/Stoch oscillators. Similar to RSI/Stoch divergences and trendlines do also work on this oscillator. Other ways to use is Aqua line crossovers with the Purple line, giving hard buy/sell signals and Aqua(fast) line turning (angle change) indicating momentum is reversing.
Example 1: When faster moving line gets pulled into the medium and slower line (especially in the overbought territory of the oscillator) gives you indication to be prepared as most likely the price will go down. Perfectly called Bitcoin top in 2017.
Example 2: BTC bottom in dec2018 and start of new trend in feb2019
Example 3 BTC Top in june2019
Example 4 works across all time frames, Recent BTC price action from 6500 to 7700.
Example 5 LINKBTC daily
Adedeji_Edge_v1.0This tool was developed to capture good entries for long and short positions. It utilizes moving averages to find best times to executive trades (long or short) and it overlays same on the chart thus minimizing chart noise i.e. no need for indicators. New traders can use this without any hassle or confusion.
In addition to the long (buy or strong buy) and short (sell or strong sell) overlays, the tool also indicates, with the background colour, areas and periods of potential upside or downside movements.
1. Blue background shows areas most conducive for potentially sustained upside price action;
2. Red background shows areas most conducive for potentially sustained downside price action.
Back-testing:
Results show that the indicator is more profitable than “Buy and Hold” (aka hodl). The back-test period was from the beginning of BTC bear market (17th December 2017) to date (10th Nov. 2019). 10% equity on $1,000 was applied to all back-test trades. Using 100% equity gives even better results.
Control conditions:
- Start date: 17th Dec 2016 (BTC ATH)
- Buy and Hold ROE: about 51% loss
Strategy script condition 1:
- Start date: Same as control date
- TF 4H
- Initial Capital $1,000
- Order size: 10% of equity
- ROE: approx. 131%
Strategy script condition 2:
- Start date: Same as control date
- TF 4H
- Initial Capital $1,000
- Order size 100% of equity
- ROE: approx. 67,000%
How to use:
Simply add the indicator to your chart, WAIT FOR CANDLE with the signal (buy or sell) to CLOSE before you go long or short .
Please note that this version 1.0 is suitable for ONLY 4H and 6H timeframes. Subsequent version(s) will include more TFs.
This tool can be used in isolation, however using it in conjunction with
1. A Moving Average (preferably the 32 EMA) gives users more information about ongoing price-action.
2. Applying trendlines (horizontal and/or dynamic support and resistance) give users better overview of the space and where sudden price bursts or reversals may occur.
Possible scenarios:
a. Buy signals (buy or strong buy) above the EMA is very bullish;
b. Sell signals (sell or strong sell) below the EMA is extremely bearish.
Variant conditions that do not confirm to the above two conditions may occur.
This tool was developed SPECIFICALLY for XBTUSD pair on Bitmex. It may be used for other trading pairs and exchanges although primary back-testing was not extended to other pairs or exchanges.
Development/improvement is a continuous thing!

It takes all aspects into consideration, it utilises multiple indicators such as Divergences, Elliott Waves , Ichimoku , MACD , MACD Histogram, RSI , Stoch , CCI , Momentum, OBV, DIOSC, VWMACD, CMF and multiple EMAs before making a decision.
This PRO+ version has a MAJOR difference to the SLIM+ version.
PRO+ has about 1000 more lines of code and allows you to use multiple advanced indicators at the same time and with a single access.
We added many helpful panels and labels for it so backtesting can be done with ease.
Finally version 2 is out now!
It is now released from all of its bugs we had with custom timeframes, Heikin Ashi and Renko Charts.
Check below what was added and removed.
Added:
- Backtesting
- Labels
- Info Panel
- Bitmex Panel
- Automatic Trendlines
- TJ-Index
- Custom Agg
- Fibonacci Customization
- EMA Customization
Removed:
- SAFE FOMO
- Custom Timeframes
- ZigZag
I have also changed the settings menu with a slightly new design and new default settings.
Algorithm Builder - Multiple Trends+ (+ Trade Manager and Panel)Hello traders
I. SCRIPTS ACCESS AND TRIALS
1. For the trial request access, they have to be done through my website .
2. My website URL is in this script signature at the very bottom (you'll have to scroll down a bit and going past the long description) and in my profile status available here : Daveatt
Due to the new scripts publishing house rules, I won't mention the URL here directly. As I value my partnership with TradingView very much, I prefer showing you the way for finding them :)
3. You may also contact me directly for more information
II. Algorithm Builder - Multiple Trends
2.1 Forewords
The Multiple Trends+ is the update of the Multiple Trends and includes a built-in Trade Manager and PnL/Risk-Reward Panel
This indicator is available only to our PREMIUM users. Our PREMIUM indicators offer more trading analysis capabilities and opportunities.
A few words of caution: the Algorithm Builders - Multiple Trends are more advanced and as such, would require slightly more time to be mastered.
They're not that much difficult, but we understand that designing a trading system with 2 trends might be slightly more complicated - however, there is nothing to be scared of :).
The time spent to learn how to use our PREMIUM tools might be rewarded handsomely.
2.2 Concept
The Algorithm Builder - Multiple Trends is made to detect the convergence of many unrelated indicators and give a BUY or SELL signal whenever all the selected sub-indicators are converging in the same direction.
This is an upgrade of the PRO package giving access to the Algorithm Builder - Single Trend - designed to show 1 unique entry per trend - whereas the Multiple Trends offers re-entries in the same direction of the trend if the indicator detects good convergences to accumulate more positions.
III. Multiple Trends versus Single Trend
3.1 Multiple Trends benefits
A friend asked us recently Why using the Multiple Trends if we can use the Single Trend in a smaller timeframe, and get more entries that way?
We thought this was an excellent question, but the answer is obvious.
Using a Single Trend on a smaller timeframe to solely getting more entries will reduce the security of the given trades.
We designed the Algorithm Builders to take a trade in an identified trend but reducing the timeframe too much will mostly increase your risk - and might lead to capital loss.
By the way, this is a universal rule valid also for a big majority of indicators.
We're absolutely not saying that the Single Trend won't work on small timeframes because actually it really does. But, if you find out a great configuration for your Single Trend, and want to get more signals without increasing your risk - then the Multiple Trends would be a very viable option.
3.2 Main signal versus secondary signals
For the main and secondary trends, the color green symbolizes any identified "BUY" trend. And the color red symbolizes any identified "SELL" trend.
-The MAIN trend symbol is unique and symbolized by a triangle.
- The SECONDARY (could also be called re-entries) trends are multiple and symbolized by a diamond.
In the Algorithm Builder indicator settings, they're identified with the Additional keyword.
3.3 How the convergences are calculated
Extremely important: The diamonds (or re-entries) are displayed, as long as a triangle (or main/primary signal) is displayed.
For a trend change (buy to sell or sell to buy), the system waits for ALL selected re-entries sub-indicators , to give a convergence/confluence in the opposite direction.
For example, let's assume a BUY/green convergence based on 3 indicators. One or Two of them going turning red, won't be enough for a trend change.
But, if all of them turn red, then we'll see a red triangle - signaling the beginning of a new downtrend.
3.4 Why multiple entries?
Here are a few use cases :
1. The main use case why we made those Multiple Trends indicators: A trader got invalidated or stopped out on a trade, but wants a system to let hin/her jump back in with a minimum of security. (security depending on the configuration of the Algorithm Builder as a whole).
This is very frustrating to get in a trade, being stopped out, and finally, see the trade going in the expected direction.
Even more frustrating to jump back in at the end of a trend, and get stopped out again - we all agree on this.
2. You want to add more positions on your main trade as your Algo Builder identified a solid trend - this is a nice way to possibly maximize your gains.
Once again, we don't/won't guarantee any performance result (not because we don't believe in our tools, but for legal reason), all depends on the time spent reading our documentation and playing with the Algo Builder - as explained on our Tutorials.
More info available on our website. URL available in this script signature and on my profile status.
IV. Why the Algorithm Builder Multiple Trends+ may help you
I worked with many traders during my career, and their feedback about trading is often pretty similar.
They all tried a lot of complicated indicators, losing their capital, and finally getting back to the basics (even to the basic indicators if I might say)
The art is finding a good combination of indicators and setting strict money/risk management rules.
Easy in concept, but more than 90+% of traders lose money on the markets... which teach us that trading is not only about drawing trendlines, or using cool indicators but finding ways to ease our psychology while trading.
4.1 The Algorithm Builder trading framework
The sub-indicators (full list on our website) weren't chosen randomly. They're based on a trading method we've developed over the last 6 years - while working with traders and other trading quants.
The Algo Builders are made to detect a convergence - and as such, will give a signal once a trend has been identified.
They're not made to detect reversal but have been designed to give a signal when all sub-indicators are either ALL bullish (green) or ALL bearish (red).
We provide a framework based on indicators we selected because they:
1. make sense to be used altogether
2. work on asset classes like INDEX, CRYPTO, STOCK OPTIONS, FOREX, COMMODITIES
3. it may expand your knowledge about what detecting a convergence with pre-selected indicator really means
4.2 Supports and Resistances
The indicator displays the main algorithmic supports and resistances according to our trading method.
I think they're relevant for all asset classes, but you're absolutely free to use any different supports/resistances logic if you want to.
I'm not against it because I know that pivots, Fibonacci levels, etc. may work very well also.
4.3 Choose your favorite risk management algorithm
1/ Pre-defined Algo S/R method using:
- a supertrend of the stop-loss
- the nearest algorithmic resistances for the take profit levels.
2/ Define your own Stop-loss and Take-profits level in real-time
Stop-Loss Management
For what's following, let's assume that 2 is the stop-loss value you inserted in the indicator, and the Algorithm Builder gives a BUY signal.
This is NOT a recommendation at all, only an example to explain how this feature works.
- %Trailing: The Stop-Loss starts 2% away from the entry price - and will move up (because we're on a BUY trade as per our example) every time your trade will gain 2% profit
- Percentage: The Stop-Loss stays static 2% away from the entry price. There is no trailing here
- TP Trailing: This is a very awesome feature. The stop-loss is set 2% away when the trades start.
When the TP1 is hit, the stop-loss will be moved to the Entry price (also called breakeven).
When the TP2 is hit, the SL is moved to the previous TP1 position
- Fixed: Set the Stop-Loss at a fixed position (value should be in currency/units)
Take Profits Management
You can manage up to 2 take profit levels defined as a percentage or price value.
The expected input is in percentage value (for instance, setting the % target of TP1 to 2% will set the TP1 level 2% away from the entry price
4.4 Built-in Trade Manager
This is very likely the most loved utility script that we shared on TradingView.
It's included in your Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+, and will certainly help you immensely to analyze your charts and your trades.
We made sure that all the graphical elements on the chart will be updated in real-time whenever our user change anything on the indicator configuration.
You'll also be able to change the Trade Manager labels positions as you wish :)
4.5 Built-in Risk-to-Reward Panel
The good stuff doesn't stop here.
You'll notice that this sometimes green (when in a LONG), sometimes red (when in a SHORT) panel at the right of your chart.
It displays for the selected trading algorithmic (see 2.3.2 above), a ton of useful real-time analytics.
- Entry Price: the price when the Algorithm Builder will give a signal.
- The Trade PnL in percentage.
- Entry Stop Loss: Distance (in currency/units) between the selected stop-loss algorithm (percent, trailing, TP trailing, etc.) and the entry price.
- Entry TP1: Distance (in currency/units) between the entry price and the first take profit
- Entry TP2: Distance (in currency/units) between the entry price and the second take profit
- Risk/Reward TP1: Using the Stop-loss distance at entry, and Take Profit 1 at entry to compute the risk-to-reward ratio.
- Risk/Reward TP2: Using the Stop-loss distance at entry, and Take Profit 2 at entry to compute the risk-to-reward ratio.
For more details, please check the guides section of my website. Links are in my signature and profile status.
4.6 Built-in PnL real-time calculations
YES!!!! you read it correctly
The panel displays the risk-to-reward ratios but also the PnL (Profit and Loss in percentage value) of the current and last trade
4.7 Hard Exits
Our trading method is known for the hard exits, also called invalidation.
The Single Trend+ includes a hard exit based on a MACD - settings are flexible and you may update them.
Having a stop-loss protecting your trade is a best practice - Protecting your stop-loss also from getting hit is incredible.
We prefer invalidate a few positions, even if sometimes we don't want to. Rather than the market hard exiting on us, and leaving with our hard-working money.
4.8 Alerts
Alerts are enabled for:
- BUY/SELL MAIN triangles signals
- BUY/SELL SECONDARY diamond signals
- Trade Manager alerts (Stop Loss, Take Profit 1, Take Profit 2)
- Hard Exits
V. Pain points that we're trying to solve with our Algorithm Builders
Issue #1 There are many informations / indicators / strategies / backtests / noise. Finding the right ones is not a simple task.
Solution #1 A reliable system that removes the external noise is much needed in trading to stay "in the game".
Issue #2 Trading could be quite stressful - The majority doesn't lose in trading because technical analysis is hard, but because managing our psychology is one of the hardest things a human can do.
Solution #2 Some ways to reduce the "trading stress" could be: getting better quality signals and trading like a "machine". Forgetting about Twitter and trusting the system you designed.
Issue #3 Trading without strict rules and only based on what we feel, or what we think the market should do is the fastest way to kiss our money goodbye.
Only 1 indicator generally is not enough. Traders generally use a combination of several indicators but they're monitoring them individually.
It's normal then to feel exhausted at the end of the day ^^ (to say the least)... and exhaustion leads to mistakes which leads to..... (I'm sure you got it) ... capital loss.
Solution #3 As a trader, I needed a trading framework and a method. I offer our trading method but they're plenty others out there. We cannot claim obviously it's the best ever ....but let's say we're using those exact same
scripts ourselves for our trading. And this what we've been recommending our clients to trade with for the past years. Also, having a tool detecting the convergence of several indicators and giving 1 unique signal
for BUY/SELL position will save you a lot of time/energy, and perhaps might help you out getting better trading performance.
VI. Resolving a complex puzzle and having fun in the process
Trading has to stay a passion and not (only be) a source of intense stress.
The most successful traders I know are "trading geeks" - literally always looking for optimizing, searching for the best possible entries, setups, indicators, tools, etc.
For them, it's not even about the money anymore, but only about beating their previous performance.
Why are they doing this? Because it's fun
Might appears as a bold statement, but I guarantee that looking for setups is fun.
One of our users even told us, that it's like playing with "Legos" and we couldn't possibly agree more.
VII. Designing a system that "makes sense"
Another bold statement now. Brace yourselves ladies and gentlemen
The Algorithm Builders allow to design trading systems quickly. What could takes days/weeks/months to find out... might be now within your reach in less than a few hours.
With a bit of practice, less than an hour might be enough per asset/timeframe to find a system that makes sense to you and adapted to your trading capital and psychology.
Assuming our users read our guides and are fully committed to learning a new way of trading - then we do guarantee you'll be able to design kick-ass trading systems that make sense.
"Making sense" doesn't mean at all it's guaranteed to win, it means you're the one defining the convergence of indicators, using your Algorithm Builder, and observe that most of the time - whenever there is a BUY signal, the candlesticks are going upwards - whenever there is a SELL signal, it's going downwards.
This is a necessary step to make real progress from a trading analyst perspective - and hopefully could lead to profits.
VII. Algorithm Builder versus the main trader enemy(=psychology)
This indicator has the goal to help solving one of the MAIN issues encountered by traders.
Most of traders realize, they can't perform with only 1 indicator (or 1 price pattern or 1 price action) and need a combination of multiple indicators before getting in a trade.
Far from being a magic pill, if it could at least reduce the stress you have while trading, then we'll consider we made a great job - it's a technical "useless noise remover", and needs to be followed strictly.
Such trust in a trading system can only be built by testing your Algorithm Builder configuration on either:
1. a demo account
2. or a live account with small bids. And then, increasing progressively the bids if your capital increases progressively.
Though, you should still use your common sense. (for instance: if we get a BUY signal right on a big timeframe resistance we're hitting for the first time).
I'm aware this is a new way of trading but for many, and while we cannot foresee the future, neither predict performance, we believe it might save you a lot of time to find good signals.
My maximum level of happiness will be reached the day when our users will contact me and showing me setups being mine.
I'm sure that even I can learn from my users and, we can all learn from each other Algorithm Builder configuration
VIII. What is a wrong or bad configuration?
Simply put. If you see that most of your signals react such as described below:
1. a buy triangle/diamond predicts, most of the time an upwards move
2. a sell triangle/diamond predicts, most of the time a downwards move
3. you estimated yourself the stop-loss needed to give enough room for your trades.
4. take profits based on algorithmic support and resistances or your own take profit method.
So what's a good Algorithm Builder configuration? A configuration you're happy with and makes sense.
A better Algorithm Builder setup is one used in demo or a live account w/ small bids for a few weeks, and you're consistent in your trading performance.
If you have any doubt or question, please hit me up directly or ask in the comments section of this script.
I'll never claim I have the best trading methodology or the best indicators. You only will be the judge, and I'll appreciate all the questions and feedback you're sending my way.
They help me a ton to develop indicators based on all the requests I received.
Kind regards,
Dave

Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ (MTF)Hello traders

2. My website URL is in this script signature at the very bottom (you'll have to scroll down a bit and going past the long description) and in my profile status available here : Daveatt
Due to the new scripts publishing house rules, I won't mention the URL here directly. As I value my partnership with TradingView very much, I prefer showing you the way for finding them :)
3. You may also contact me directly for more information
II. Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ (MTF)
2.1 Concept
MTF means Multi Timeframes - we all agree that saying MTF is nicer and easier than multi-timeframe.
That script is an upgrade of the Single Trend:
The Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ (Multiple Timeframes/MTF) is made to detect the convergence of many unrelated indicators, and give a BUY or SELL signal whenever all the selected sub-indicators - each may be using a different timeframe - are converging in the same direction.
Now sit tight because what's going to be announced will be awesome. Are you ready for it?... :)
The MTF version allows to detect the convergence for indicators in different timeframes. Each indicator has its own timeframe - expanding, even more, your trading analysis capabilities.
In other words, you could, for instance, detects the convergence of an H1 MACD with an H2 Supertrend, and why not also adding an m30 Moving Averages cross in the mix.
The Single Trend+ MTF gives one single entry per identified trend - unlike the Multiple Trends editions (also available on my scripts page) which may give more than 1 entry per trend.
The traders select the sub-indicators they want, and see in real-time the BUY and SELL triangles being updated.
2.2 Why the Algorithm Builder Single Trend may help you
I worked with many traders during my career, and their feedback about trading is often pretty similar.
They all tried a lot of complicated indicators, losing their capital, and finally getting back to the basics (even to the basic indicators if I might say)
The art is finding a good combination of indicators and setting strict money/risk management rules.
Easy in concept, but more than 90+% of traders lose money on the markets... which teach us that trading is not only about drawing trendlines, or using cool indicators but finding ways to ease our psychology while trading.

They're not made to detect reversal but have been designed to give a signal when all sub-indicators are either ALL bullish (green) or ALL bearish (red).

1. make sense to be used altogether
2. work on asset classes like INDEX, CRYPTO, STOCK OPTIONS, FOREX, COMMODITIES
3. it may expand your knowledge about what detecting a convergence with pre-selected indicator really means
2.3.1 Supports and Resistances

This is NOT a recommendation at all, only an example to explain how this feature works.
- %Trailing: The Stop-Loss starts 2% away from the entry price - and will move up (because we're on a BUY trade as per our example) every time your trade will gain 2% profit
- Percentage: The Stop-Loss stays static 2% away from the entry price. There is no trailing here
- TP Trailing: This is a very awesome feature. The stop-loss is set 2% away when the trades start.
When the TP1 is hit, the stop-loss will be moved to the Entry price (also called breakeven).
When the TP2 is hit, the SL is moved to the previous TP1 position
- Fixed: Set the Stop-Loss at a fixed position (value should be in currency/units)
Take Profits Management
You can manage up to 2 take profit levels defined as a percentage or price value.
The expected input is in percentage value (for instance, setting the % target of TP1 to 2% will set the TP1 level 2% away from the entry price
2.3.3 Built-in Trade Manager
This is very likely the most loved utility script that we shared on TradingView.
It's included in your Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+, and will certainly help you immensely to analyze your charts and your trades.
We made sure that all the graphical elements on the chart will be updated in real-time whenever our user change anything on the indicator configuration.
You'll also be able to change the Trade Manager labels positions as you wish :)
2.3.4 Built-in Risk-to-Reward Panel
The good stuff doesn't stop here.
You'll notice that this sometimes green (when in a LONG), sometimes red (when in a SHORT) panel at the right of your chart.
It displays for the selected trading algorithmic (see 2.3.2 above), a ton of useful real-time analytics.
- Entry Price: the price when the Algorithm Builder will give a signal.
- The Trade PnL in percentage.
- Entry Stop Loss: Distance (in currency/units) between the selected stop-loss algorithm (percent, trailing, TP trailing, etc.) and the entry price.
- Entry TP1: Distance (in currency/units) between the entry price and the first take profit
- Entry TP2: Distance (in currency/units) between the entry price and the second take profit
- Risk/Reward TP1: Using the Stop-loss distance at entry, and Take Profit 1 at entry to compute the risk-to-reward ratio.
- Risk/Reward TP2: Using the Stop-loss distance at entry, and Take Profit 2 at entry to compute the risk-to-reward ratio.

2.3.5 Hard Exits
Our trading method is known for the hard exits, also called invalidation.
The Single Trend+ includes a hard exit based on a MACD - settings are flexible and you may update them.
Having a stop-loss protecting your trade is a best practice - Protecting your stop-loss also from getting hit is incredible.
We prefer invalidate a few positions, even if sometimes we don't want to. Rather than the market hard exiting on us, and leaving with our hard-working money.
2.3.6 Alerts
Alerts are enabled for:
- BUY/SELL triangles signals
- Trade Manager (SL, TP1, TP2)
- Hard Exits
III. Pain points that we're trying to solve with our Algorithm Builders
Issue #1 There are many informations / indicators / strategies / backtests / noise. Finding the right ones is not a simple task.
Solution #1 A reliable system that removes the external noise is much needed in trading to stay "in the game".
Issue #2 Trading could be quite stressful - The majority doesn't lose in trading because technical analysis is hard, but because managing our psychology is one of the hardest things a human can do.
Solution #2 Some ways to reduce the "trading stress" could be: getting better quality signals and trading like a "machine". Forgetting about Twitter and trusting the system you designed.
Issue #3 Trading without strict rules and only based on what we feel, or what we think the market should do is the fastest way to kiss our money goodbye.
Only 1 indicator generally is not enough. Traders generally use a combination of several indicators but they're monitoring them individually.
It's normal then to feel exhausted at the end of the day ^^ (to say the least)... and exhaustion leads to mistakes which leads to..... (I'm sure you got it) ... capital loss.
Solution #3 As a trader, I needed a trading framework and a method. I offer our trading method but they're plenty others out there. We cannot claim obviously it's the best ever ....but let's say we're using those exact same
scripts ourselves for our trading. And this what we've been recommending our clients to trade with for the past years. Also, having a tool detecting the convergence of several indicators and giving 1 unique signal
for BUY/SELL position will save you a lot of time/energy, and perhaps might help you out getting better trading performance.
III. Resolving a complex puzzle and having fun in the process
Trading has to stay a passion and not (only be) a source of intense stress.
The most successful traders I know are "trading geeks" - literally always looking for optimizing, searching for the best possible entries, setups, indicators, tools, etc.
For them, it's not even about the money anymore, but only about beating their previous performance.
Why are they doing this? Because it's fun
Might appears as a bold statement, but I guarantee that looking for setups is fun.
One of our users even told us, that it's like playing with "Legos" and we couldn't possibly agree more.
IV. Designing a system that "makes sense"
Another bold statement now. Brace yourselves ladies and gentlemen
The Algorithm Builders allow to design trading systems quickly. What could takes days/weeks/months to find out... might be now within your reach in less than a few hours.
With a bit of practice, less than an hour might be enough per asset/timeframe to find a system that makes sense to you and adapted to your trading capital and psychology.
Assuming our users read our guides and are fully committed to learning a new way of trading - then we do guarantee you'll be able to design kick-ass trading systems that make sense.
"Making sense" doesn't mean at all it's guaranteed to win, it means you're the one defining the convergence of indicators, using your Algorithm Builder, and observe that most of the time - whenever there is a BUY signal, the candlesticks are going upwards - whenever there is a SELL signal, it's going downwards.
This is a necessary step to make real progress from a trading analyst perspective - and hopefully could lead to profits.
V. Algorithm Builder versus the main trader enemy(=psychology)
This indicator has the goal to help solving one of the MAIN issues encountered by traders.
Most of traders realize, they can't perform with only 1 indicator (or 1 price pattern or 1 price action) and need a combination of multiple indicators before getting in a trade.
Far from being a magic pill, if it could at least reduce the stress you have while trading, then we'll consider we made a great job - it's a technical "useless noise remover", and needs to be followed strictly.
Such trust in a trading system can only be built by testing your Algorithm Builder configuration on either:
1. a demo account
2. or a live account with small bids. And then, increasing progressively the bids if your capital increases progressively.
Though, you should still use your common sense. (for instance: if we get a BUY signal right on a big timeframe resistance we're hitting for the first time).
I'm aware this is a new way of trading but for many, and while we cannot foresee the future, neither predict performance, we believe it might save you a lot of time to find good signals.
My maximum level of happiness will be reached the day when our users will contact me and showing me setups being mine.
I'm sure that even I can learn from my users and, we can all learn from each other Algorithm Builder configuration
VI. What is a wrong or bad configuration?
Simply put. If you see that most of your signals react such as described below:
1. a buy triangle predicts, most of the time an upwards move
2. a sell triangle predicts, most of the time a downwards move
3. you estimated yourself the stop-loss needed to give enough room for your trades.
4. take profits based on algorithmic support and resistances or your own take profit method.
So what's a good Algorithm Builder configuration? A configuration you're happy with and makes sense.
A better Algorithm Builder setup is one used in demo or a live account w/ small bids for a few weeks, and you're consistent in your trading performance.
If you have any doubt or question, please hit me up directly or ask in the comments section of this script.
I'll never claim I have the best trading methodology or the best indicators. You only will be the judge, and I'll appreciate all the questions and feedback you're sending my way.
They help me a ton to develop indicators based on all the requests I received.
Kind regards,
Dave
Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+Hello traders
I. SCRIPTS ACCESS AND TRIALS
1. For the trial request access, they have to be done through my website .
2. My website URL is in this script signature at the very bottom (you'll have to scroll down a bit and going past the long description) and in my profile status available here : Daveatt
Due to the new scripts publishing house rules, I won't mention the URL here directly. As I value my partnership with TradingView very much, I prefer showing you the way for finding them :)
3. You may also contact me directly for more information
II. Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+
2.1 Concept
That script is an upgrade of the Single Trend:
The Algorithm Builder - Single Trend+ was made to detect the convergence (also called confluence) of many unrelated indicators, giving a BUY or SELL signal whenever all the selected sub-indicators are converging in the same direction.
The Single Trend gives one single entry per identified trend - unlike the Multiple Trends editions (also available on my scripts page) which may give more than 1 entry per trend.
The traders select the sub-indicators they want, and see in real-time the BUY and SELL triangles being updated.
2.2 Why the Algorithm Builder Single Trend may help you
I worked with many traders during my career, and their feedback about trading is often pretty similar.
They all tried a lot of complicated indicators, losing their capital, and finally getting back to the basics (even to the basic indicators if I might say)
The art is finding a good combination of indicators and setting strict money/risk management rules.
Easy in concept, but more than 90+% of traders lose money on the markets... which teach us that trading is not only about drawing trendlines, or using cool indicators but finding ways to ease our psychology while trading.
2.3 The Algorithm Builder trading framework
The sub-indicators (full list on our website) weren't chosen randomly. They're based on a trading method we've developed over the last 6 years - while working with traders and other trading quants.
The Algo Builders are made to detect a convergence - and as such, will give a signal once a trend has been identified.
They're not made to detect reversal but have been designed to give a signal when all sub-indicators are either ALL bullish (green) or ALL bearish (red).
We provide a framework based on indicators we selected because they:
1. make sense to be used altogether
2. work on asset classes like INDEX, CRYPTO, STOCK OPTIONS, FOREX, COMMODITIES
3. it may expand your knowledge about what detecting a convergence with pre-selected indicator really means
2.3.1 Supports and Resistances
The indicator displays the main algorithmic supports and resistances according to our trading method.
I think they're relevant for all asset classes, but you're absolutely free to use any different supports/resistances logic if you want to.
I'm not against it because I know that pivots, Fibonacci levels, etc. may work very well also.
2.3.2 Choose your favorite risk management algorithm
1/ Pre-defined Algo S/R method using:
- a supertrend of the stop-loss
- the nearest algorithmic resistances for the take profit levels.
2/ Define your own Stop-loss and Take-profits level in real-time
