Swing Trader-Pro V2The strategy- what is it?
This indicator is designed from a theory created by myself in order to distinguish a correction from an impulse. This comes down to the ability to compare "x" range of candles to "y" range of candles and highlight key differences to then correctly portray that the most recent move in price will be (or is) a correction.
Following this theory, we all understand that corrections don't go with the trend right? So this means at some point, there is a high probability of a rejection somewhere in this most recent move, that will ultimately push price higher or lower as it continues back with the trend. Therefore, through extensive quantitative research and back-testing, we are able to highlight areas of high-probability rejections within these supposed corrections.
How does it work?
Firstly, we need to establish a high and low point (using pivots ) that help us decide what the state is of the recent move between the high and low (we call this "point A" and "point B"). So we can only consider whether the recent move in price was an impulse or a correction until the move from "point B" to "point C" is made. But before that, once we have identified "Point A" and "point B", we use 2 (supposedly) strong levels which help integrate a box onscreen and thus, indicate this area of high liquidity. This box will continue to adjust according to the change of pivots (if price keeps creating HH's & HL's or LH's & LL's depending on market trend). But if we establish a strong high and low and price stays within this range, then the box will remain in place.
The default color of the box is red; the only time the color of the box will change is when:
- Price retraces from the high/low back to the box (price has to touch the box)
AND
-If any of our confirmations indicate a successful correction based on our theory.
So the box color varies:
- Red = very weak (or) no entry = no confirmations were made
- Yellow = weak entry = some but not all confirmations were made
- Green = strong entry = all confirmations have indicated that the move from "point B" to "point C" (remember that "point C" is where the box is) is a correction when compared with the move from "point A" to "point B"
These confirmations are all validated on the same candle during live candle activity (not when the candle has closed on the box). As this happens, the confirmations will determine the state of entry quality as soon as price touches the box.
In this time, we will see a new orange label highlighting what indicators have confirmed a successful correction and what haven't.
The label shows the different confirmation indicators in which we have provided different names (as this is the secret we intend to keep). So we have:
- "CC"
- "B1/B2"
- "B3"
Usually, we will see either an "OK" or "NOT OK" next to each confirmation indicator. This just tells us whether they have confirmed or not. Please note that this "point C" label does not stay permanently, regardless of the state of entry quality. The label will in fact stay on the screen until the next box has been generated, which is usually a few candles after the entry has been triggered.
Entries, SL's and TP's
This indicator shows the user an area of high-probability rejection. So in terms of specifying a precise entry, you're completely free to enter on the following:
- the moment price touches the box (depending on what color it is of course)
- the other end of the box (if you would like to catch a "sniper entry")
- or if price pierces the entire box and is still green, you can wait to see if price comes back through the box (which indicates a false breakout).
As for Stop-losses, i would recommend:
- Long entries: set your SL at the recent low (this should be "point A")
- Short entries: set your SL to the recent high (this should be "point A" as well, because if you're switching from the "long entry" setting to the "short entry" setting, the indicator labels flip around and are the opposite of what they are for long entries).
For Take profits, this is entirely up to the user. Because some entries will allow you to have great RR ratios depending on how you manage the active trades. Some recommendations below:
- Set TP to "point B" pivot
- Use trailing stop function or something similar if available
- Add other indicators such as the RSI and close when price reaches key levels
- When price shows signs of exhaustion or early stages of reversal then just close
Additional information and recommendations
- This works on any time frame and on any financial market, whether you prefer Forex, stocks, crypto, commodities , etc.
- In regards to trade direction, you can change in the settings to look for either long or short positions in the market. I would recommend using it in favor of the overall trend of the markets because you will find a lot better entries. Although, this does work against the trend at times as well. Additionally, this tool also works in consolidating markets which is beneficial.
- After becoming used to the script, i would say to apply it twice to your screen and have one looking for Long entries and the other looking for Short entries.
- As the user, you have the ability to remove the labels in the parameter settings (because it does look quite messy onscreen, especially if you have both long and short entries on at the same time). I would only personally show the labels when price hits the current box to see what confirmations have been identified.
- I will also provide the best parameters to use. You will only need one set of parameters for each long and short setting, as these parameters are universal for any time frame and any financial market.
FIRST UPDATE
After extensive back testing using our first version, we found that in fact, there are some great opportunities being wasted as the entry box stays red. This is due to some series of market structure that don't always fit our theory of continuations within the market. We found that although our theory is accurate, the amount of times the market fits this is more rare than times when price follows sequences. When we look for sequences in the market instead of specifying differences between impulses and corrections, we actually see areas of serious repetitiveness, thanks to how our indicator initially generates. Not how it confirms. So, understanding this new theory through one component of our previous indicator, we are still able to keep boxes at the same area yet accurately confirm more profitable entries external to our full previous strategy.
Moving towards the practical side of things:
-Make sure "add extra confirmation" parameter is selected, as this will allow the indicator to search for more valid entries rather than just our normal confirmations. (this is a tick box).
- Default parameters are already set for both C1 and C2
In a simple sense, this update is added to find more confirmations to turn more red boxes into green boxes based on other theories outside of our original one. How we do this exactly is part of the mystery.
SECOND UPDATE
- Fibonacci based moving average: using elements of the Fibonacci sequence and its relevance to being a hot-spot in price activity, we have integrated this into a moving average which is stronger than your usual MA. Here, you will notice it showing stronger signs of rejecting price, especially when trending. Hence, this is extremely useful to implement into your strategy as part of the trend identification. When price is consolidating, depending on how volatile or close-in the waves are during these periods, the FMA is similar to your typical MA, so therefore not so good. But the overall intention of this is to enhance your conclusion to whether price is trending and whether price is bullish or bearish.
- This is now a strategy, not just an indicator: So now we can choose from a huge variety of parameters in accordance to what ones work best with what pair, or time frame. The typical parameters to change would be the entry points, stop losses and take profits. We have also added in a "SL to entry" option. ALL PARAMETERS ARE FIBONACCI LEVELS AS THIS MAKES IT UNIVERSAL TO ANY PAIR/ TIME FRAME.
- Move the entry boxes : So this is very useful for certain pairs and mainly to help the user understand key sequences on a quantitative level. Sometimes we can notice that pairs spike higher than the typical entry (0.618) so we have allowed flexibility to the point where you can alter the box appearance to either the 0.618 level (default), 0.786 and the 0.9 level.
- Back-testing: Now the user can back-test the strategy and see the performance within any financial market you add this to! Please note that according to the strategy, once a trade is placed, it wont enter any more trades when the current one is still active. I have requested to change this, but it is out of our development team's reach. However, this doesn't discredit what the system can help you achieve, as you will still be able to find profitable parameters within the financial markets.
Strategy default properties
Backtest start: this date is when you would like to start the backtest, however, the indicator will go as far as the data can be read
Backtest end: choose your date to end the back test.
Trade session: choose the trading session you want this strategy to work on.
Filter by session: you can filter the backtested results depending on whether you want the strategy to take trades within the chosen trading session.
Filter by Fibonacci moving average: select this if you would like for the back tested results to consider whether the valid trade setups are in accordance to what the FMA displays (Bullish or Bearish). This is deselected.
Fibonacci Moving Average Timeframe: here you can select what timeframe you would like the FMA to work on, default is the “same as chart” button/ option.
TraderDirection: choose whether you would like LONG or SHORT entries for the indicator to find.
Max risk per trade: choose the risk setting per trade, i would suggest lowering this to 1% ((MODERATOR) This is the default setting!)
EntryFib: choose between the options as to where you would like the strategy to enter positions, the default is the 0.618 zone which is the closest side of the box to price. You will also see that when you choose to change this, the boxes on your screen will move accordingly. A very helpful function!
StopFib: choose your Stop Loss based on the same Fibonacci level as what you choose for your entry, remember that the higher the fib level, the higher (or safer) your Stop Loss is from price spiking. It all comes down to preference.
TakeProfitFib: choose your Take Profit based on the same Fibonacci level as what you choose for your entry, remember that the lower the fib level, the higher your Take Profit is again, It all comes down to preference.
BreakevenFib: the default setting is on “disabled” however when you select a certain Fibonacci level, once price reaches there during the active trade, your Stop Loss will be set to entry, this function is designed to stop volatile price fluctuations rendering your in-profit trade result to hitting your Stop Loss and losing when it closes out.
Swingtrading
Scalp ProScalp Pro is a scalping tool that uses the MACD mechanism. MACD lines are smoothed using fibonacci numbers and pi numbers. In this way, the noise on the signal is reduced. A " BUY " signal is generated when the lines cross upwards. If the lines cross down, a " SELL " signal is generated. The logic is very simple and the Indicator is very useful.
I wish you many profitable trades.
Multi Range VWAP PivotsMulti Range VWAP Pivots turned out to be one of my most accurate pivot indicators to date!
Multi Range VWAP Pivots works by recognizing the high and low of the timeframe selected (D, W, M, 6M, and 12M) and plotting range high to VWAP averages and range low to VWAP averages.
After further examination of each completed range, I came to the conclusion that due to the nature of averages, high and low respectively would need to be completed within the current range, for the averages to actually display pivots correctly. This means that if all averages appear to be "pivoting" correctly after or during a break lower of higher, then we can only assume the most recent break higher or lower could be exhaustion and price will be reverted to the mean (VWAP). OR, this could be the most accurate hindsight indicator on the planet.
*DISCLAIMER*: This indicator repaints. DO NOT backtest or set alerts with this indicator.
Drawdown VisualisationAn indicator that let's you visualize the current drawdown and maximum drawdown from an All-Time High
Moving Average and PerformanceThis indicator combines several tools that are used daily for analysis:
The performance of the action we are seeing.
The percentage of retracement the stock has made from its all time high.
Possibility of using up to four exponential or simple moving averages in the length we want.
It allows to see or not the levels of four moving averages in daily temporality.
This indicator is unique since it allows you to see in real time the performance of the Stock or ETF that is being analyzed, which allows you to make a timely decision for short, medium or long-term investments.
If you are doing scalping, swing, or intraday trading, you can see the retracement it has made from the ATH (3, 5, 10 or 13%) which can become Supports or Resistances where the price can rebound, Likewise, the levels of the moving averages in 1D temporality can be observed at the same time, which are usually dynamic supports or resistances and it can also be observed in the same temporality of the chart four moving averages that the trader can configure in the length that you deem convenient to improve your analysis and make decisions as quickly as possible.
Este indicador es único ya que permite ver en tiempo real el rendimiento de la Acción o ETF que se está analizando, lo cual permite tomar una decisión oportuna para las inversiones a corto, mediano o largo plazo.
Si se está haciendo trading tipo scalping, swing, o intradía, se puede observar el retroceso que ha hecho desde el ATH (3, 5, 10 o 13%) el cual puede convertirse en Soportes o Resistencias en donde el precio puede hacer rebotes, así mismo se pueden estar observando al mismo tiempo los niveles de las medias móviles en temporalidad de 1D, los cuales usualmente son Soportes o resistencias dinámicas y también se puede observar en la misma temporalidad del gráfico cuatro medias móviles que el trader puede configurar en la longitud que crea conveniente para mejorar su análisis y tomar decisiones lo más rápido posible.
VWAP High/Low ChannelIn short, the VWAP High/Low Channel is based on VWAP "newsession" on swing high/low, with a basis of the two.
The VWAP High/Low channel seems to act like Bollinger bands or Donchain Channels when squeezing for a breakout, while also acting as a pivot after a breakout.
One For All - Overextended Price ChannelIntroduction :
Channels are very useful tools to assess overextended price, volatility and upcoming retracement or impulsive moves (such as Bollinger Band squeezes). It is an indispensable addition to any trader using Mean Reversion theory for a scalp-trade or swing-trade.
This script contains :
- 2 channels Keltner-style, usingthe True Range for volatility
- a fully customizable volatility (channel width) and smoothing period (up to the ALMA parameters)
- both channel separately configurable , i.e. having a different volatility setting or smoothing method for each
- a useful selection of smoothing methods) to be used instead of the standard SMA or EMA, such as ALMA or Hull
- an embedded readjustment of the lower bands to avoid the drop on a logarithmic scale (see explanation below)
- a double layered channels with a gradient color to help dollar cost averaging in and out of positions
Why another channel indicator ?
I have found most conventional channels to be either not based on "proper" volatility (e.g. standard deviation of price action for Bollinger Band), or the bottom channel to be ill adapted to the logarithmic scale and plunges to 0 on some high volatility periods, messing with readability on logarithmic auto-scaled chart.
Also, I find the channels to be most useful when superimposed with another one of longer length; especially a pair of channels with a 50 and 200 period moving average respectively. Mean Reversion traders that mostly trade the 50 and 200 SMA/EMA know what I am talking about as having a channel helps to have a better visual for a proper of entry and exit point.
Lastly, wondering why traders mostly use the SMA/EMA for the channel center, historic reason, personal preference, stubborn beliefs...? Well you will find that using other smoothing method such as the ALMA or Hull shows very interesting restults that seem -I dare say- more accurate, this option is provided in this script (some screen shot below speak for themselves).
Disclaimer :
This indicator was originally intended to be used along with the Trend Insight System to improve performance, and the default configuration mostly backtested on BTCUSD.
Please use with caution, proper risk management and along with your favorite oscillator, candlestick reading and signals system.
Some explanation :
Based on Mean Reversion paradigm, everything has a tendency to revert back to the mean :
- when the price enters the upper channel, it is supposed to be (or start getting) overbought as the market is getting overheated, thus prone to correction,
- on the other hand, when the price enters the lower channel, it is supposed to be (or getting) oversold and the market looks favorable for a buy-in.
Depending on the trading style used, a trader will usually either wait until the price leaves the channel towards the mean before taking action (conservative style) or you will set limit orders inside the channel as you expect a reversion to the mean (more agressive/risky style).
With two channels, more complex (and maybe precise) rules can be built to optimize one's trading strategy, especially adjusting the volatility multiplier inputs for each channel. Using different smoothing method for each is interesting to play with (especially Hull for the 50 and maybe VWMA for the 200) but not keenly advised unless you know what you are doing.
An example using the conventional Volume Weighted Keltner-like channel :
A more interesting channel using the most recent ALMA smoothing method :
Another variant using the Hull smoothing method to better see squeezes and overextensions :
This last screenshot shows the reason why it was originally intended to be used along with the Verbatim of the Trend Insigth System :
Important notes :
While this version is fun to use thanks to a very customizable side, you might get into the neverending maze of trying tofind an optimal setting for volatility and smoothing length to adapt to each and every market you are trading. Hence, be wary of overoptimization which is risky at best and counter productive at worst (according to legendary traders such as Mark Douglas).
In the end, sticking with 50/200 length and a single setting on volatility might be wiser. Even if, needless to say, the volatility needs to be adjusted between a nascent and volatile market (such as crypto) compared to standard call markets that are much less volatile.
End notes :
It will always be considered a work in progress to help bring out the best of trading with channels, any comment and suggestion are welcomed.

BAM's Weighted ROCTraders,
BAM's Weighted ROC is a Momentum indicator. ROC stands for 'Rate of Change' therefor this indicator plots the reading of a weighted average Rate of Change. In its current form it uses 4 periods en 4 weightings. The periods are set to 21/63/126/252 which corresponds to the number of trading days in each 1/3/6/12 months. The weightings are set to emphasize the more recent periods where the 1-month period counts for 40% of the signal, the 3-monthh period for 30%, the 6-month for 20% and the 12-month for 10%. These settings, both periods and weightings, are customizable. The current settings are meant to serve the widely used 1-day time interval chart setting. Feel free to alter the time frame and adjust the parameters accordingly; eg I like trading the weekly chart on a 10/20/30/40 period settings.
BAM's Weighted ROC can be used as a trendfilter for Trend Following trading systems or as an entry signal for Swing trading systems, or both. In the current setting the indicator is set to trend-following; it turns green when positive (above 0), indicating positive momentum. And red when negative (below 0), indicating negative momentum. In the most basic form one can trade a well diversified portfolio of assets using the indicator as guidance for entry and exit signals as it flows back and forth between positive and negative. Another use for the indicator lies in Swing Trading systems. In this approach the transfer from declining momentum into ascending momentum can be interpreted as a shift in momentum from negative to positive, and therefor constitute an entry opportunity. A combination of the 2 signals is of perfectly viable too, wait for positive momentum (reading above 0) in combination with a upward shift from one bar to the other. Use the reverse logic as an exit signal. In these examples the indicator is used in a stand-alone fashion. But off course it can also be used in conjunction with other indicators.
I personally use the two functions, trend-following en swingtrading, in tandem (combined)
for further reading into the rational behind Trend Following trading systems I recommend the following sources:
- Free Read: Google for 'Meb Faber, Global Asset Allocation' he gives out free copies on his website. Meb is a well known character in the Momentum-factor arena.
- Easy read: 'Following the trend' By Andreas Clenow. I don't think there is any Trend Following trader that doesn't know this chaps work.
- sophisticated Read: Trend Following with Managed Futures by A. Greyserman and K. Kaminski. This one is for those who seriously mean business!
Good luck out there, pls consider that the momentum factor holds an edge, at least based on historical performance, but this out-performance (most often) lies in the low single digits.
Pls be aware that use of this indicator is at your own risk. All info provided is solely presented for educational purposes.

Trend Analyzer - SwingSwiss SuiteTrend Analyzer aims to define and analyze the trend of a particular asset at a given time using MACD, mathematical functions, and moving average.
It comes in very handy when determining an overall strategy or when you need to decide on whether a trade makes sense or not.
Finally, you can build a complete strategy around the indicator.
QUICK OVERVIEW
When the histogram is green, it means that the asset is currently bullish. Blue shows a possible reversal while red is synonymous with a bearish trend.
In the configuration panel, you can change the length of the data analysis.
The lower the number, the more recent the data captured is. Therefore, it's more predictive.
USE CASES
- You want to make a long trade on a 30mn chart but the indicator is red on the 30mn chart but also in the lower charts showing that the trend is not likely to reverse... You should think twice about that trade.
- You want to short the market on a 2h chart but on the lower charts, the green indicator is showing... Wait for a little bit, you might short at a higher price.
POSSIBLE STRATEGY
Let's take the BTCUSDT Future on the 2h chart :
You can display the indicator twice.
The first one with a length of 5, the second one with a length of 4.
To enter a long trade, wait for the green on length 5 and exit it at blue or red on length 4! It works like magic ;)
Disclaimer:
Trading and investing in the financial markets involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor.
All trading strategies are used at your own risk.

EMA+RSI Pump & Drop Swing Sniper (With Alerts)This is using an EMA and RSI with slightly modified settings to give good entry and exit points while looking at Bitcoin. I use this on a 4-hour chart and with other indicators to find good positions to enter a trade or exit if things are turning red.
If you click on the EMA line it will color the bars of the chart based on if they are above or below the EMA - This is just visually helpful for me to see the active trend.
Make sure you hover over or click on the EMA line to see the colors of the candles change - it's not visible by default or without doing this.
INDIGO - SwingTraderThis is a script that uses a couple of other indicators to find good swing trade entry's and exit's. You can choose which signals the script uses to calculate the position of the signals.
It uses the following:
- Stoch RSI
- MACD
- POC
- INDIGO Cloud
Also added are volume candles, acceleration of momentum indicators (triangle) and MACD candles. This way you can see more info to decide if the entry is valid.
I have used a couple of public scripts and tried to give credit to the original creators. If there is any script that hasn't been credited, please contact me.
Feedback is very much appreciated, positive and negative. Also If you have any question, feel free to ask me. I'll try to answer asap.
Enjoy the script :)
Donchian Channel StrategyRide the trend with full potential. Filter out false signals using long period ema. Lower bands take care of the stop loss.
Use this strategy for banknifty futures for consistent quarterly returns.
Fat Side PathI got the idea for a narrow Donchian Channel with a short lookback period which closely follows the price fluctuation in which the sides of the channel have a thickness according to the range of the last touching candle.
Any channel, be it Donchian, Keltner, Bollinger Bands or Parallel, has an upside and a downside, touching the upside is a buy signal as this may initiate an uptrend, the downside a sell signal because a down trend may come.
This gave me the idea to make only the last touched side fat, thus creating visible switching between uptrend and downtrend. However this is ‘too digital’, as in practice also periods of no trend occur in which signaling a trend would give a false signal. In a Donchian channel (and also Bollinger Bands) such periods are marked by narrowing the channel. So I gave a no trend signal to the sides when the channel is narrower than a minimum width to call a trend. I gave the thing nice colours and proper default settings.
Use of the channel in trading.
I think this thing can be useful for swing trading. In channels two typical things may happen that should be noted by the trader, these are LB, Leaving the Border, which signals a trend reversal and FTT, Failure To Traverse, i.e. the price doesn’t manage to cross the channel to the other side. This affirms the trend. FTT’s are not expected in short lookback channels like this path (Sidenote: Fibonacci levels can be regarded as predictions where FTT’s may occur). The fat side indicates direction. Because somehow trends seem to end with a notable range extension, this channel sometimes produces a “Big Blob” where the trend reverses.
I intend to use this thing together with my Keltner Fibzones channel, where the zones serve as a ‘landscape’ in which the Fat Side Path meanders providing ‘comments’ on the short term price movements.
Cyatophilum Bands Definitive Edition█ OVERVIEW
A Swing Trade indicator providing backtest and alerts which can be used as a long, short or reversal strategy.
Its main goal is to catch breakouts and huge moves, and to try and beat the Buy & Hold Return.
█ CONCEPTS
The strategy consists of a unique custom indicator that works like this:
A Smoothed Donchian Channel combined with a consolidation check will trigger an entry.
The entry is then guided by a faster channel used as a trailing stop.
█ HOW TO USE
The most effective way to use this indicator is on high timeframes, from 2H to 1D.
The recommended pairs are trending pairs with consolidation areas. Yes, I'm especially looking at crypto.
The first appproach would be to catch long and short breakouts, and ride the trend using the trailing stop.
Adjust the Bands wisely to trigger entries at the right time.
The second approach is to go longs only, and try to beat the Buy & Hold return.
For this, click "Go long" and use an order size of 100% equity. Then adjust the Bands, trailing stop and chart timeframe.
The Buy & Hold comparator will come handy when backtesting.
█ INDICATOR SETTINGS
Strategy Direction
Choose wether to go long only, short only or both directions.
Bands Configuration
The bands lookback, smoothing and consolidation % are used to change the behavior of the bands. More info in the settings tooltips.
Trailing Stop
The "speed" of the trailing stop can be configured, allowing more or less room for the price to move before exiting.
Volume Condition
In addition to the consolidation condition, you can add a volume check to your entry. Is the volume rising or not? Useful in most scenarios.
Exit Alert Type
If you want to receive alerts during bars or prefer to ignore wicks.
Backtest Settings
This is where you choose the backtest period which is also used to calculate the B&H return.

The buy & Hold Comparator is an additional panel that turns green when the strategy's return is greater than the Buy & Hold return.
Note: The Strategy Return is the strategy netprofit + the strategy openprofit.
█ ALERTS
Configure your alert messages for all events in the indicator settings.
Then click "Add Alert". In the popup window, select the option "alert() function calls only", give the alert a name and you are good to go!
█ BACKTEST RESULTS
The backtest settings used in this snapshot are the following:
Initial Capital: 10 000$
Order size: 100% equity (It indeed compounds and this is intended since the main goal of the strategy is to compare to Buy & Hold return)
Commission: 0.1%
Slippage : 10 ticks
The Indicator settings used for this are shown in the main chart above.
Follow the Trend with Fib support LevelsThis is trend following strategy. Which takes entries on the pullbacks when long term trend is up.
It allows you to enter / add on pullback of Fib 0.618 of prebious N number of candles. I have defaulted this to 9.

1. Long term trend is UP i.e ema 50 is above ema 200

3. when the close cross above Fib0.618 line , Enter BUY or ADD to existing position

[blackcat] L1 Swing Reversal IndicatorLevel: 1
Background
Many asked me about swing reversal indicators. There are many but less of them can guarantee high win rate. Because market is complex, the reversals can be nested together, which means sub level reversals will be contained in higher level waves. This can be well explained by Elloit wave theory.
Function
Here it is a simple moving average based swing reversal indicator as an example for many others to improve it. Although it simple, it could be very powerful to dedicated trading pairs in specific time frame. One can adjust N1~N4 as SMA peiords from short to long to customized this indicator or even by trying different moving average types to enhance its accuracy.
Key Signal
N1~N4 --> SMA look back periods
OB --> Overbought Threshold
OS --> Oversold Threshold
Pros and Cons
Simpe but powerful. More feedbacks are appreciated.
Remarks
Easy to be customized or integrated to your trading system.
Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
[KL] BOLL + MACD Strategy v2 (published)This strategy will look for opportunities when price touches the lower Bollinger band, then enters Long when it anticipates a MACD crossover signal.

Hello Tradingview World!
It is us, AltSignals, and we're back after many months of working on a new indicator script for anyone to try! Just message us and we will add you to test it out, all feedback is highly appreciated as we're always trying to improve the script.
This script was designed for Cryptocurrency pairs as we know how much you guys love crypto! However it will work on other markets. The AltTrader script uses various indicators in conjunction with each other but the most prominent one is ATR! ATR is truly a secret indicator that many people do not incorporate into their trading strategy, but I have found it to be a great tool for finding trends and predicting tops!
I have made sure to include Take profit 1, Take profit 2 and Stop loss options for AltTrader, this means you can adjust the settings based on percent, make sure to use the measure tool in TradingView if you need to find out the percentage gap of a move. Generally with Crypto pairs the percent moves will be more so 1-5% and with forex much smaller 0.1-0.5% for example.
I have also added in a Power setting which allows you to increase or decrease the number of alerts, the default is set at 100, but you can do it as low as 1 and as high as 500 or more. But remember too many alerts is a curse and over trading may be detrimental to a users performance!
This indicator was designed to work in both small and high timeframe scenarios allowing you to catch small scalp moves and large trend moves, my personal favourite timeframes 15m and 1hr for lower timeframes and 4hr to 1D for higher timeframes. I know it can be tempting to use a low timeframe like 1 minute but there will be a lot of choppy indirection. You don't want to be sitting there all day trading, jumping in and out of every move there is.
I hope this has cleared up some questions for the indicator and I will be happy to answer more over Tradingview Private Messenger if needed. Please message me if you would like a trial as I am looking for feedback as well.
Thank you
AltS Team
