Dynamic Stop Loss DemoWhat does this script do ?
This script is for pine script programmers and explains how to implement a dynamic stop-loss strategy. It is different from trailing stop-loss. Trailing stop-loss can only set the retracement value, but this script can take profit on part of the position at a fixed price and allows users to decide whether to take profit on all positions based on whether a certain track is breached or other conditions author want. In this demo, it use rsi crossover and crossunder to decide the strategy condition, and use close price as open price, and use lowest low / highest high as stop price, and use 1.5 risk ratio to calculate the fixed first profit price. It will take 50% position size when the first profit price was reached. Then it will close all rest positions when the inverse condition come out or the dynamic stop(calculated by ATR) breached or when the price back to the open price or the stop price.
How is this script implemented
When start strategy by strategy.entry , it gives a custom id which contains direction, openPrice, stopPrice, profitPrice, qty, etc. It can be get from the global variable strategy.posiition_entry_name .
[TTI] ATR Trailing Stop Alerts––––HISTORY & CREDITS 🏦
The Trailing Stop Alert is a TradingView indicator developed by TintinTrading, which is designed to help traders manage their positions by updating and alerting them about their trailing stop levels. This tool is a valuable addition to a trader's arsenal, as it automates the process of maintaining trailing stop levels and alerts the user when they are updated or hit.
––––WHAT IT DOES 💡
The Trailing Stop Alert indicator calculates trailing stop levels based on the Average True Range (ATR) of an asset over a specified lookback period. It takes user inputs for trail type (Long or Short), lookback period, ATR length, ATR multiplier, and bar time. The indicator can be applied to any financial instrument and will dynamically update the trailing stop level based on price action. When the trailing stop level is updated or hit, the indicator generates alerts to inform the user of these events.
––––HOW TO USE IT 🔧
1. Add the Trailing Stop Alert indicator to your TradingView chart.
2. Configure the settings according to your preferred parameters:
👉Trail Type: Choose between "Long" or "Short" based on your trading position.
👉Lookback: Set the number of bars to look back for determining the highest high or lowest low.
👉ATR Length: Set the period for calculating the Average True Range.
👉ATR Multiplier: Set the multiplier to adjust the trailing stop distance.
👉Bar Time: Set the time at which the indicator starts updating the trailing stop levels.
3. The indicator will plot the trailing stop level on the chart, and update it as the price action unfolds.
4. When the trailing stop level is updated or hit, you will receive an alert in the form of a message with the new level or a notification that the stop has been hit.
5. Adjust your stop loss orders accordingly based on the trailing stop levels provided by the indicator.
By using the Trailing Stop Alert indicator, you can effectively manage your positions and reduce the risk of giving back profits in a trade.
cankardesler stoploss v2This stoploss allows to filter high volatility fake trends;
But how we are made it; we are calculating the last spikes value average and calculating the standart deviation, after we added to the standart stoploss formula price+2atr and voila!!
Your stop loss is ready.
The idea behind this formula: what is explosing our stops? fake-out spikes.
We think if we get the last spikes average and calculate the standart deviation on it and after add it to the original stop formula, its gonna help for bypassing the spikes.
Thanks a lot @ocankardes for helping me to developing this formula
TrailingStopsLibrary "TrailingStops"
This library contains functions to output trailing stop lines.
f_marketStructureStop(_restartMode, _flipMode, _restartLowIn, _restartHighIn)
Parameters:
_restartMode - Defines how the stop lines persist. Allowed values are:
"Always On" - The stop lines are always present and they just reset when they're crossed.
"Flip" - The stop lines flip when they're crossed.
"Manual" - The stop lines turn off when they're crossed, and turn back on again when _restartLowIn or _restartHighIn are passed into the function as true.
_flipMode - Defines whether the stop lines are broken by wicks or closes. Allowed values are "Wick", and "Close".
_restartLowIn - If _restartMode is "Manual", passing this parameter as true restarts the Low stop line.
_restartHighIn - If _restartMode is "Manual", passing this parameter as true restarts the High stop line.
@returns - floats for the Low and High stop line.
Interactive SAR Stop-Loss [TANHEF]This indicator is "Interactive" which means some inputs can are manually added through the first click after adding the indicator to the chart (SAR Trailing Stop-loss start point).
Unlike the normal Parabolic SAR, this indicator allows for the modification of the start point of the Parabolic SAR’s first bar calculation. Normally, the Parabolic SAR automatically has a start point after the first bar of an asset’s historical price that will then switch between trailing above and below price respectively. It must be noted that due to how the first position of the Parabolic SAR is calculated, on occasion the Parabolic SAR will immediately flip on the next bar to the opposite side relative to price that it was just located. Modifying the setting “⭐Initial Interactive SAR Position Source”, then selecting either 'Clicked' or 'ATR' level as the vertical start position will prevent this. See images below for more explanation.
Why use a trailing stop-loss?
A trailing stop-loss provides an exit when price moves against you but also enables you to move the exit point further into profit when price is moving in the desired direction of a trade. The Parabolic SAR ( stop and reverse ) which is used to determine price direction as well as when price direction is changing, is very effective at functioning as a trailing stop loss.
Indicator Explanation
Initially when this indicator is added to the chart, you will be prompted to select where to begin the SAR Trailing Stop-loss.
For a long stop-loss, select below price.
For a short stop-loss, select above price.
After this indicator is placed, it can be modified via dragging or from within the settings by modifying the time and the price input. Or simply re-add the indicator to the chart. Another option is to have this Parabolic SAR begin directly on the price that was initially ‘Clicked’ or the ‘ATR’ level, which requires selecting the option in settings labeled “⭐Initial Interactive SAR Position Source”
The SAR Stop Loss plotted. Note that the calculation that occurs on this first bar of the ‘Interactive SAR’ is as if the prior bar was the oldest historical bar of the asset. Due to the SAR’s calculations, if the ‘Normal SAR’ were to also flip sides over to the position that has been manually set for the ‘Interactive SAR’, they won’t necessarily have the same result.
An optional fixed profit target can be added within the settings. This profit target will only actively be plotted when the SAR Trailing Stop-loss has not be hit yet or until the profit target has been hit.
Here shows that the profit target was hit, then later on the SAR Trailing Stop-loss was hit.
Note, trailing stop-loss will continue to be plotted until it has been hit regardless of the profit target being hit or not.
Here is an example of when the Parabolic SAR will immediately flip on the next bar to the opposite side relative to price that it was just first located. This is due to how the Parabolic SAR is calculated and will also occur with the traditional Parabolic SAR that is not interactively (manually) given a start location. To prevent this, either relocate this time in which this SAR beings or consider modifying the SAR’s (start, increment, max) settings specifically.
Here instead of using the SAR’s calculation for an initial bar, the ‘ATR’ was selected as the start point within the setting “⭐Initial Interactive SAR Position Source”.
Alerts
1. 'Check' alerts to use within indicator settings (trailing stop hit and/or profit target hit).
2. Select 'Create Alert'
3. Set the condition to 'Interactive SAR''
4. Select create.

this indicator helps you to get a better trading setting.
it's similar to the default draw tool from the trading view but the difference is you can add Trail stop and Alert .

just remember after you see set an alert if you change stop or entry, the alert will work with previous values/settings.
so you need to recreate an alert.
also don't change alert setting

Liquidity Raid - Stop HuntLiquidity Raid - Stop Hunt
The market always seeks liquidity. Liquidity rests above previous highs and below previous lows as many traders see these as obvious points to place their stops. These are areas in the chart where many orders are placed together and serve as tipping points for market makers.
The script marks the breach of a market structure high/low with a vertical line. The script has the option to show the current W,D,4H & 1H market structure high and low.
How to use:
Once a raid occurs, use a higher timeframe to search for high probability supply and demand zones. Price needs to react to something. You may have multiple breaches before a reversal happens as price is likely looking for fresh(untested) zones. So don't trade blindly.
A good understanding of supply and demand concepts, odds enhancers, and how to identify fresh levels is expected to utilise it's full potential.
Lines and colours are all customizable
Alerts function included.
Indicator in use:
Trailing Stop AlertsThis script is designed as an ATR-based trailing stop tool to assist in managing open positions.
Once you're involved in a profitable trade, if you add this script to your chart you'll be prompted to select a bar to begin trailing from.
You can then adjust the candle lookback distance for swing high/lows (7 by default), the ATR multiplier (1.0 by default), and the direction to trail (Long/Short).
You can also adjust the ATR period in the settings menu if you want to (14 period by default).
Once the script is added to your chart, it will begin drawing your trailing stop and you can then set up alerts.
Alert Options:
Any alert() function call : Will trigger an alert for both conditions (trailing stop updated, trailing stop hit)
Alert Conditions : Trailing Stop Update will trigger whenever the stop is updated, Trailing Stop Hit will trigger whenever the stop is hit.
Note: the alerts will only fire once per bar close and the trailing stop will not update on realtime bars.
ATR Start & Stop BotThis script is using Average True Range (ATR) and works very well on the Bitcoin 4 hour timeframe to determine when to stop and start your bots.
It has a very similar visual to the EMA RSI Indicator found here:
This 'ATR Start & Stop Bot' is better because it has less confusion during sideways market movement.
As an example - You are using 3commas and have a Composite bot setup with several alt coins, you can use this indicator with the ' Stop bot ' alert to disable your composite bot from taking trades at times when the market is on a trend that looks in the red.
Alternatively you can use the ' Start bot ' alert to turn your bot back on during the green uptrends.
Using this indicator with these alerts on the Bitcoin 4-Hour chart add a great layer of automation to your already existing bots.

Moving Stop-Loss mechanism + alerts to MT4/MT5"How to code moving stop-loss mechanism", is one of the most often repeating questions in private messages I receive, so just to focus on this mechanism, I made a spin-off from my previous script: TradingView-Alerts-to-MT4-MT5-dynamic-variables-NON-REPAINTING .
The logic here moves the stop-loss each time a trade is running and a new pivot high/low is detected. When such event occurs (UpdateLongStopLoss or UpdateShortStopLoss), stoploss_long or stoploss_short mutable variable is modified. And it needs to be coded inside strategy.exit() line as "stop=stoploss_long" or "stop=stoploss_short". Entries are pretty straightforward - on Stoch crosses.
Last lines of the script show how to wrap information about such updates and send send alerts to MetaTrader via TradingConnector for execution in Forex/indices/commodities/crypto markets via MetaTrader. Please note that "tradeid=" variable must be passed with each alert, to let MetaTrader know which trade to modify. SLMOD, TPMOD are recently added commands, along with BE (as in "move stop-loss to breakeven" - but that's another topic).
Please disregard strategy backtest results, as this script is for coding education purposes only. However, it seems with the stop-loss mechanism enabled, the results are even better, than in original version of the script :)
ATR Stop Loss FinderThis Indicator uses Average True Range (ATR) to determine a safe place to put stop losses to avoid being stop hunted or stopped out of a trade due to a tight stop loss. Default multiplier setting is 1.5. For a more conservative stop loss use 2 and for a tighter stop loss use 1. ATR and stop loss prices are displayed in table at bottom of screen. Use high(red) for shorts and low(teal) for longs.
SL Hunter Tracker SL Hunter Tracker
coded by Bogdan Vaida
SL Hunter Tracker is a meticulous hunter that tracks SL hunters.
First it plots the fractals on the chart, then it draws lines from them
to the last wick that touched that height. You can add sweep alerts, once
per bar close, so that you get notified when a wick was touched.
Tested on: EURUSD 30'
MultiPrice AlertThis is an alert script using Pinescript version 4. This enables one to set 5 alerts (1 StopLoss, 4 Targets), on 3 different symbols, at using a single alert in the UI.
Every visible line will only appear on the symbols that are selected. After setting targets when making an alert, select this indicator as a condition. Change the name to whatever you want, usually the names of the set of tickers.
The Alert message is dyanmic showing which Symbol with each type of alert, at whatever price.
Ability to disable the targets + symbols.
Alerts work by Stop Loss crossing under price and Targets Cross Over. Enabling the "Short" Targets reverses this.
The line that is being displayed is actually the price of the asset being moved over x number of bars. I have not found a way to plot a traditional horizontal line, as the code for it uses a fixed price.
As it being a user input, it is a variable. Any help with this would be appreicated.
Alerts are set to once per bar.
Known bug that sometimes if the prices that you set are inside the current candle stick, then your alert will immeaditally fire, either change the timeframe or let it fire and wait fo
After a target is hit, I reccomend setting the alert to 0 and REMAKING the alert. You MUST REMAKE THE ALERT AFTER ANY CHANGES. This script WILL NOT CHANGE ALERTS AS YOU CHANGE SETTINGS.
TradingView Alerts are not this smart , at least I haven't found a way to do this yet.
Trend Trigger 15 SecThe following are printed:
The FAST ma is a HULL smoothed transparent line that closely hugs the price bars. This is the trigger line. (default 9/3 length)
The MIDLINE ma is a HULL smoothed solid thick line that tries to show the short term trend and is used to confirm bias. (default 100 length)
The SLOWEST ma is a HULL smoothed transparent thicker line that tries to show the long term trend. It is not used in any calculation and only for visual aide. (default 200 length)
Every GREEN or RED tag that prints, will display the percentage change over the last 12 bars.
Every tag is the trigger that confirms:
1)The CLOSE is above the MIDLINE ma
2)The FAST ma is climbing (GREEN) or falling (RED)
3)RSI is climbing/falling and confirms direction with the FAST ma. The RSI has a length of 5 that is smoothed with a 7 period HULL.
4)The tag text will change from white to purple if the (very fast) RSI is above/equal to 85 or below/equal to 15.
5)The close is above either the last or second to last bar's close.
6)The percentage of change (of close) over the last 12 bars is more than 0.25% or less than -0.25%
Each trigger will print a stop line and targets at = 0.5x stop value, 1x stop value, 1.5x stop value, 2x stop value. These lines continue to print until the FAST ma changes direction. I use a formatted gamma box to easily overlay and extend those lines when needed.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Here is an example of the use of a gamma box to draw an actual entry. I draw set it up so that, while holding control; click on the 1st target line, then move far right and click in space so the 2nd target line ALIGNS with the pointer.
EXAMPLE:

The LONG position stop value is calculated by determining the lowest low of the last 12 bars - 0.1*wma(atr(20),20).
The SHORT position stop value is calculated by determining the highest high of the last 12 bars + 0.1*wma(atr(20),20).
These calculations find the low of the last 3 minutes, extend it by a small amount, and then draws the stops and targets.
There is always a running tag that prints ahead of the current bar. It displays the percentage change in the current direction of the FAST ma. It also shows the RSI value which will turn purple if RSI is >=85 or <=15.
The circle and flag below the tag helps visually confirm the trend direction of the FAST and MIDLINE mas.
The circle colors in diction of the MIDLINE ma
The flag colors in the direction of the FAST ma.
When they are both RED, both lines confirm a SHORT entry.
When they are both GREEN, both lines confirm a LONG entry.
If you enable the PM signal, position entries will fire before 09h30m30s (coded begin time).
If you enable "backtest", prior days will show tags/targets/stops including PM times.
There is a single alarm option. It will fire for either a LONG or SHORT entry.
The alarm is listed as "SIGNAL".
Once it is armed, the alarm will show as active in the "Alerts" column, which will read: {{ticker}} {{plot_3}}% @ {{close}}
This will print (when fired):
The ticker,
The percentage of change over the last 12 bars. If the value is negative than the entry is trending DOWN, if this value is positive; than the entry is trending UP)
The price at which the alarm fired.

Supertrend / Position SizingSuperTrend with position sizing calculator.
This is based on SuperTrend by Kivanc. I only added the position size calculation and displaying the result.
ATR Without OutliersIt is an ATR indicator which filters out outliers.
Outliers are values which are higher than the standard deviation of the true range.
It may be better than normal ATR for stop loss, because it does not keep large values after pump or dump.
It is very useful for high volatile markets like crypto markets.
Tiger's Stop - Objective Stoploss SettingTrading is a lot about risk management too. I created this script to help with setting and moving a proper stop-loss. It plots an area that is a result of adding and subtracting both average true range and something I call "false range".
►The Average True Range is calculated as the candle's high-low. If there is a gap, it is added to complete the result.
►My own False Range just candle bodies. It is calculated as an absolute value of (close-open).
Then, Rolling Moving Average is applied on both ATR and False Range to get an idea of how far the price tends to extend out of pure randomness. The resulting value is multiplied by a Multiplier.
The next step is an addition of the values to the higher part of the candle for short or a lower part of the candle for long. I prefer a special calculation instead of using Highs and Lows because it allows for more precise observation and stop-loss set up for less wicky symbols.
►►►Additional Functions
• Smoothing - applies moving average to candles from which range distance is calculated. This can achieve good smoothness but higher values will lead to using outdated price in the SL area calculation.
• Enable/Disable - if you know the direction you are going to trade in, it is good to disable either Long Stop-Loss Area or Short Stop-Loss Area. Just untick it in the settings.
►►►Actual Using
Before using the script to set your stop-loss, check the historical data and find a similar set-up. Is it engulfing you use as a trigger? Find a different one and see how effective the stop-loss based on the ATR*multiplier was. This will help you to optimize Multiplier value. A picture shows such research for a double top. You should find more similar situations to find an optimal value.
Ultimately, the indicator still gives you relatively a lot of freedom with your stop-loss settings (at least, that is with the default settings). You need to decide how loose stop-loss you want to set. Average True Range is the furthermost part which will make for a very large stop-loss, on the other hand, False Range might be triggered by a villainous wick unnecessarily. The choice should depend on the specific symbol you trade and perhaps, you will learn to set stops regardless of the indicator.
A little trick : 1. You can set the loosest stop-loss and set a TradingView alert for where the tightest stop-loss would be. When alerted, you will get the opportunity to reconsider the trade and take a loss if needs be or exit if a candle closes there. 2. Mostly for cryptocurrencies, you can set the tightest stop-loss to protect yourself from sudden spikes. If the price approaches it slowly enough, you can move the stop-loss to the further part of the channel. This is not the same as moving stop-loss indefinitely with hopes of reversal if you plan it from the beginning and a smaller stop is meant to protect you from spikes that are not always predictable and drive to both directions.
►►►Advantages of trailing stop-loss
I usually stick with my original stop-loss instead of moving to break even. If my entry area was functional support once, it may work again and is, therefore, still a good entry zone. But an alternative used to preserve as much of the profit as possible is trailing.
Trailing is setting a specific value in ticks or a calculation of how to move the stop-loss whenever the price moves in your favor. Tiger's Stop can be used this way. Whenever there is a new value as the candle closes and that value is closer to price than your current stop-loss, you can update it. However, if it moves further from your price, don't change the stop-loss. This can be a little tiresome if you do it manually but should be worth the effort.
I usually start trailing only after the price moves significantly in my favor that allowing it to return to the entry price would not make any sense.
►►►Feedback and optimization
The preview chart is chosen entirely at random and the values are not optimized for any specific symbol. If you opt to use it, let me know which values work for you the best, I'll add it to the description when I update it.
Furthermore, let me know if you think any sort of alerts would be useful with my script.
Good luck!

ATR Stop (Adaptive and Advanced)Hi everyone I am excited to share with you all a tool that has been in a lot of my research lately I and think would greatly benefit everyone.
In the last years I have fallen in love with ATR stoplosses/ stop and reverses. However all the ones offered in the community lacked the features that I wanted to have, so I built them all myself and want to share them with you all today!!!
Assuming that you are already familiar with ATR stops, here is what is new and improved with this version:
1. This script takes anything as an input! As you can see in the chart above I have used an EMA as an input into this script and this greatly smoothed out the results while still allowing for phenomenal entries with minimal whiplash. You can use this tool on anything now, from moving averages to oscillators.
2. Previous scripts were not adaptive, you can now choose how adaptive this script is! Increasing this number allows this ATR stop to follow price when it is running away so you don't have to give back much profit. Likewise it makes sure that the ATR stop slows down when the market is ranging so you wont get randomly stopped out.
3. You can now get it to start at the exact moment you enter your trade! Previous scripts had the ATR stop running forever which wasn't helpful if you only needed it for your own trades. You can now set it to start at the exact time of your trade if that is the only time you need it!
4. Now you can easily get alerts when the ATR stop gets hit.
Hope this helps you all!
