Momentum Trail Oscillator [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script builds a Momentum Trail Oscillator designed to measure directional momentum strength and dynamically track shifts in trend bias using a combination of smoothed price change calculations and adaptive trailing bands. The oscillator aims to help traders visualize when momentum is expanding or contracting and to identify transitions between bullish and bearish conditions.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The core idea combines two methods. First, the script calculates a normalized momentum measure by smoothing price changes relative to their absolute values, which creates a bounded oscillator that highlights whether moves are directional or choppy. Second, it uses a trailing band mechanism inspired by volatility stops, where bands adapt to the oscillator’s volatility, adjusting the thresholds that define a shift in directional bias. This dual approach seeks to address both the magnitude and persistence of momentum, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
🟠 FEATURES
The momentum calculation applies Hull Moving Averages and double EMA smoothing to price changes, producing a smooth, responsive oscillator.
The trailing bands are derived by offsetting a weighted moving average of the oscillator by a multiple of recent momentum volatility. A directional state variable tracks whether the oscillator is above or below the bands, updating when the momentum crosses these dynamic thresholds.
Overbought and oversold zones are visually marked between fixed levels (+30/+40 and -30/-40), with color fills to highlight when momentum is in extreme areas. The script plots signals on both the oscillator pane and optionally overlays markers on the main price chart for clarity.
🟠 USAGE
To use the indicator, apply it to any symbol and timeframe. The “Oscillator Length” controls how sensitive the momentum line is to recent price changes—lower values react faster, higher values smooth out noise. The “Trail Multiplier” sets how far the adaptive bands sit from the oscillator mid-line, which affects how often trend state changes occur. When the momentum line rises into the upper filled area and then crosses back below +40, it signals potential overbought exhaustion. The opposite applies for the oversold zone below -40. The plotted trailing bands switch visibility depending on the current directional state: when momentum is trending up, the lower band acts as the active trailing stop, and when trending down, the upper band becomes active. Trend changes are marked with circular symbols when the direction variable flips, and optional overlay arrows appear on the price chart to highlight overbought or oversold reversals. Traders can combine these signals with their own price action or volume analysis to confirm entries or exits.
Expanded Cloud [LuxAlgo]The Expanded Cloud tool allows traders to identify and follow trends accurately. It is based on the well-known Donchian Channels, but with enhanced features.
It features a trailing cloud that expands with the price and a trading stats dashboard.
🔶 USAGE
The tool is super easy to use. Traders can identify bigger or smaller trends just by adjusting the length from the settings panel.
Trend identification is based on Donchian Channels. An uptrend is indicated when the cloud is located below the price, while a downtrend is indicated when the cloud is above it.
Dots signal the start of a new trend, and the width of the clouds identifies the strength of the price expansion. The wider the cloud, the bigger the move.
The expanded cloud, due to its visual, can also act as a trailing stop.
🔹 Trend Identification
As we can see in the chart above, different length values identify different trends on the same BTC daily chart. Larger values identify larger trends.
🔹 Cloud Expansion
From the settings panel, traders can adjust how the clouds expand based on the Expansion % parameter. It accepts values from 0 to 100, which controls how much of the expansion is taken into account. Higher values will make the cloud expand and get closer to the price faster.
When the cloud moves opposite to the direction of the indicated trend (e.g: the cloud decreases while being below the price), it is often indicative of the end of a retracement, and we can expect the price to move with the indicated trend.
The chart above shows the effect of different Expansion % values.
🔹 Dashboard
The trading statistics dashboard informs traders of key metrics derived from the tool. The following are notable:
PNL: Theoretical profit or loss from all trends identified by the tool in the right scale units.
EXPECT.: Expected value of each trade. It is derived from win rate and risk-to-reward metrics.
AVG: 1st TOUCH: The average number of bars from the beginning of a new trend until the price touches the cloud for the first time.
🔶 SETTINGS
Length: Length for trend detection
Expansion %: Percentage of price expansion for cloud formation

Heatmap Trailing Stop with Breakouts (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Heatmap Trailing Stop with Breakouts (Zeiierman) is a trend and breakout detection tool that combines dynamic trailing stop logic, Fibonacci-based levels, and a real-time market heatmap into a single, intuitive system.
This indicator is designed to help traders visualize pressure zones, manage stop placement, and identify breakout opportunities supported by contextual price–derived heat. Whether you're trailing trends, detecting reversals, or entering on explosive breakouts — this tool keeps you anchored in structure and sentiment.
It projects adaptive trailing stop levels and calculates Fibonacci extensions from swing-based extremes. These levels are then colored by a market heatmap engine that tracks price interaction intensity — showing where the market is "hot" and likely to respond.
On top of that, it includes breakout signals powered by HTF momentum conditions, trend direction, and heatmap validation — giving you signals only when the context is strong.
█ How It Works
⚪ Trailing Stop Engine
At its core, the script uses an ATR-based trailing stop with trend detection:
ATR Length – Defines volatility smoothing using EMA MA of true range.
Multiplier – Expands/retracts the trailing offset depending on market aggression.
Real-Time Extremum Tracking – Uses local highs/lows to define Fibonacci anchors.
⚪ Fibonacci Projection + Heatmap
With each trend shift, Fibonacci levels are projected from the new swing to the current trailing stop. These include:
Fib 61.8, 78.6, 88.6, and 100% (trailing stop) lines
Heatmap Coloring – Each level'slevel's color is determined by how frequently price has interacted with that level in the recent range (defined by ATR).
Strength Score (1–10) – The number of touches per level is normalized and averaged to create a heatmap ""score"" displayed as a colored bar on the chart.
⚪ Breakout Signal System
This engine detects high-confidence breakout signals using a higher timeframe candle structure:
Bullish Breakout – Strong bullish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Bearish Breakout – Strong bearish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Cooldown Logic – Prevents signals from clustering too frequently during volatile periods.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Following & Trail Stops
Use the Trailing Stop line to manage positions or time entries in line with trend direction. Trailing stop flips are highlighted with dot markers.
⚪ Fibonacci Heat Zones
The projected Fibonacci levels serve as price magnets or support/resistance zones. Watch how price reacts at Fib 61.8/78.6/88.6 levels — especially when they're glowing with high heatmap scores (more glow = more historical touches = stronger significance).
⚪ Breakout Signals
Enable breakout signals when you want to trade breakouts only under strong context. Use the "Heatmap Strength Threshold" to require a minimum score (1–10).
█ Settings
Stop Distance ATR Length – ATR period for volatility smoothing
Stop Distance Multiplier – Adjusts the trailing stop'sstop's distance from price
Heatmap Range ATR Length – Defines how far back the heatmap scans for touches
Number of Heat Levels – Total levels used in the heatmap (more = finer resolution)
Minimum Touches per Level – Defines what counts as a ""hot"" level
Heatmap Strength Threshold – Minimum average heat score (1–10) required for breakouts
Timeframe – HTF source used to evaluate breakout momentum structure

Trend Flow Trail [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script overlays a custom hybrid indicator called the Money Flow Trail which combines a volatility-based trend-following trail with a volume-weighted momentum oscillator. It’s built around two core components: the AlphaTrail—a dynamic band system influenced by Hull MA and volatility—and a smoothed Money Flow Index (MFI) that provides insights into buying or selling pressure. Together, these tools are used to color bars, generate potential reversal markers, and assist traders in identifying trend continuation or exhaustion phases in any market or timeframe.
CONCEPTS
The AlphaTrail calculates a volatility-adjusted channel around price using the Hull Moving Average as the base and an EMA of range as the spread. It adaptively shifts based on price interaction to capture trend reversals while avoiding whipsaws. The direction (bullish or bearish) determines both the band being tracked and how the trail locks in. The Money Flow Index (MFI) is derived from hlc3 and volume, measuring buying vs selling pressure, and is further smoothed with a short Hull MA to reduce noise while preserving structure. These two systems work in tandem: AlphaTrail governs directional context, while MFI refines the timing.
FEATURES
Dynamic AlphaTrail line with regime switching logic that controls directional bias and bar coloring.
Smoothed MFI with gradient coloring to visually communicate pressure and exhaustion levels.
Overbought/oversold thresholds (80/20), mid-level (50), and custom extreme zones (90/10) for deeper signal granularity.
Built-in take-profit signal logic: crossover of MFI into overbought with bullish AlphaTrail, or into oversold with bearish AlphaTrail.
Visual fills between price and AlphaTrail for clearer confirmation during trend phases.
Alerts for regime shifts, MFI crossovers, trail interactions, and bar color regime changes.
USAGE
Add the indicator to any chart. Use the AlphaTrail plot to define trend context: bullish (trailing below price) or bearish (trailing above). MFI values give supporting confirmation—favor long setups when MFI is rising and above 50 in a bullish regime, and shorts when MFI is falling and below 50 in a bearish regime. The colored fills help visually track strength; sharp changes in MFI crossing 80/20 or 90/10 zones often precede pullbacks or reversals. Use the plotted circles as optional take-profit signals when MFI and trend are extended. Adjust AlphaTrail length/multiplier and MFI smoothing to better match the asset’s volatility profile.
FVG Trailing Stop [LuxAlgo]The FVG Trailing Stop indicator tracks unmitigated Fair Value Gaps (FVG) data to produce a Trailing Stop indicator able to determine if the market is uptrending or downtrending easily.
🔶 USAGE
The FVG Trailing Stop is intended to identify trend directions through its position relative to the closing price:
Bullish: Price is located above the Trailing Stop, indicating that all Bearish FVGs have been mitigated and the trend is anticipated to continue upwards.
Bearish State: Price is located below the Trailing Stop, indicating that all Bullish FVGs have been mitigated and the trend is anticipated to continue downwards.
The Trailing Stop originates from two extremities obtained from the average of respective unmitigated FVGs. The specific directional average is also displayed as a more transparent secondary line, however, the trailing stop is derived from this value and a new trend will not be detected until the opposite directional average is crossed.
Price reaching the Trailing Stop is caused by retracements and can lead to the following scenarios:
Outcome 1: The directional average is crossed next, indicating a new trend direction.
Outcome 2: The directional average is held as support or resistance, leading to a new impulse and a continuation of the trend.
🔹 Reset on Cross
While price crossing the Trailing Stop should be considered as a sign of an upcoming trend change; it is possible for the price to still evolve outside it.
As a solution, we have included the "Reset on Cross" feature, which (as the name suggests) hides and resets the Trailing Stop each time it is crossed, leading to a "Neutral" state.
This opens the opportunity for the Trailing Stop to be displayed again once the price moves again in the direction of the pre-established trend. A trader might use this to accumulate positions within a specific trend.
🔶 DETAILS
The script uses a typical identification method for FVGs. Once identified, the script collects the point of the FVG farthest from the current price when formed.
For Upwards FVGs this is the bottom of the FVG.
For Downwards FVGs this is the top of the FVG.
The data is managed only to use the last input lookback of FVGs. If an FVG is mitigated, it frees up a spot in the memory for a new FVG, however, if the lookback is full, the oldest will be deleted.
From there, it uses a "trailing" logic only to move the Trailing Stop in one direction until the trailing stop resets or the direction flips.
The extremities used to calculate the Trailing Stop are created from 2 calculation steps, the first step involves taking the raw average of the FVG mitigation levels, and the second step applies a simple moving average (SMA) smoothing of the precedent-obtained averages.
🔶 SETTINGS
Unmitigated FVG Lookback: Sets the maximum number of Unmitigated FVGs that the script will use.
Smoothing Length: Sets the smoothing length for the Trailing Stop to reduce erratic results.
Reset on Cross: When enabled, hide and reset the Trailing Stop until the price starts moving in the pre-established trend direction again.
Commodity Trend Reactor [BigBeluga]
🔵 OVERVIEW
A dynamic trend-following oscillator built around the classic CCI, enhanced with intelligent price tracking and reversal signals.
Commodity Trend Reactor extends the traditional Commodity Channel Index (CCI) by integrating trend-trailing logic and reactive reversal markers. It visualizes trend direction using a trailing stop system and highlights potential exhaustion zones when CCI exceeds extreme thresholds. This dual-level system makes it ideal for both trend confirmation and mean-reversion alerts.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Based on the CCI (Commodity Channel Index) oscillator, which measures deviation from the average price.
Trend bias is determined by whether CCI is above or below user-defined thresholds.
Trailing price bands are used to lock in trend direction visually on the main chart.
Extreme values beyond ±200 are treated as potential reversal zones.
🔵 FEATURES\
CCI-Based Trend Shifts:
Triggers a bullish bias when CCI crosses above the upper threshold, and bearish when it crosses below the lower threshold.
Adaptive Trailing Stops:
In bullish mode, a trailing stop tracks the lowest price; in bearish mode, it tracks the highest.
Top & Bottom Markers:
When CCI surpasses +200 or drops below -200, it plots colored squares both on the oscillator and on price, marking potential reversal zones.
Background Highlights:
Each time a trend shift occurs, the background is softly colored (lime for bullish, orange for bearish) to highlight the change.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the oscillator to monitor when CCI crosses above or below threshold values to detect trend activation.
Enter trades in the direction of the trailing band once the trend bias is confirmed.
Watch for +200 and -200 square markers as warnings of potential mean reversals.
Use trailing stop areas as dynamic support/resistance to manage stop loss and exit strategies.
The background color changes offer clean confirmation of trend transitions on chart.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Commodity Trend Reactor transforms the simple CCI into a complete trend-reactive framework. With real-time trailing logic and clear reversal alerts, it serves both momentum traders and contrarian scalpers alike. Whether you’re trading breakouts or anticipating mean reversions, this indicator provides clarity and structure to your decision-making.
QQQ Strategy v2 ESL | easy-peasy-x This is a strategy optimized for QQQ (and SPY) for the 1H timeframe. It significantly outperforms passive buy-and-hold approach. With settings adjustments, it can be used on various assets like stocks and cryptos and various timeframes, although the default out of the box settings favor QQQ 1H.
The strategy uses various triggers to take both long and short trades. These can be adjusted in settings. If you try a different asset, see what combination of triggers works best for you.
Some of the triggers employ LuxAlgo's Ultimate RSI - shoutout to him for great script, check it out here .
Other triggers are based on custom signed standard deviation - basically the idea is to trade Bollinger Bands expansions (long to the upside, short to the downside) and fade or stay out of contractions.
There are three key moving averages in the strategy - LONG MA, SHORT MA, BASIC MA. Long and Short MAs are guides to eyes on the chart and also act as possible trend filters (adjustable in settings). Basic MA acts as guide to eye and a possible trade trigger (adjustable in settings).
There are a few trend filters the strategy can use - moving average, signed standard deviation, ultimate RSI or none. The filters act as an additional condition on triggers, making the strategy take trades only if both triggers and trend filter allows. That way one can filter out trades with unfavorable risk/reward (for instance, don't long if price is under the MA200). Different trade filters can be used for long and short trades.
The strategy employs various stop loss types, the default of which is a trailing %-based stop loss type. ATR-based stop loss is also available. The default 1.5% trailing stop loss is suitable for leveraged trading.
Lastly, the strategy can trigger take profit orders if certain conditions are met, adjustable in settings. Also, it can hold onto winning trades and exit only after stop out (in which case, consecutive triggers to take other positions will be ignored until stop out).
Let me know if you like it and if you use it, what kind of tweaks would you like to see.
With kind regards,

Trailing Stop Loss [TradingFinder] 4 Machine Learning Methods🔵 Introduction
The trailing stop indicator dynamically adjusts stop-loss (SL) levels to lock in profits as price moves favorably. It uses pivot levels and ATR to set optimal SL points, balancing risk and reward.
Trade confirmation filters, a key feature, ensure entries align with market conditions, reducing false signals. In 2023 a study showed filtered entries improve win rates by 15% in forex. This enhances trade precision.
SL settings, ranging from very tight to very wide, adapt to volatility via ATR calculations. These settings anchor SL to previous pivot levels, ensuring alignment with market structure. This caters to diverse trading styles, from scalping to swing trading.
The indicator colors the profit zone between the entry point (EP) and SL, using light green for buy trades and light red for sell trades. This visual cue highlights profit potential. It’s ideal for traders seeking dynamic risk management.
A table displays real-time trade details, including EP, SL, and profit/loss (PNL). Backtests show trailing stops cut losses by 20% in trending markets. This transparency aids decision-making.
🔵 How to Use
🟣 SL Levels
The trailing stop indicator sets SL based on pivot levels and ATR, offering four options: very tight, tight, wide, or very wide. Very tight SLs suit scalpers, while wide SLs fit swing traders. Select the base level to match your strategy.
If price hits the SL, the trade closes, and the indicator evaluates the next trade using the selected filter. This ensures disciplined trade management. The cycle restarts with a new confirmed entry.
Very tight SLs, set near recent pivots, trigger exits early to minimize risk but limit profits in volatile markets. Wide SLs, shown as farther lines, allow more price movement but increase exposure to losses. Adjust based on ATR and conditions, noting SL breaches open new positions.
🟣 Visualization
The indicator’s visual cues, like colored profit zones, simplify monitoring, with light green showing the profit area from EP to trailed SL. Dashed lines mark entry points, while solid lines track the trailed SL, triggering new positions when breached.
When price moves into profit, the area between EP and SL is colored—light green for longs, light red for shorts. This highlights the profit zone visually. The SL trails price, locking in gains as the trade progresses.
🟣 Filters
Upon trade entry, the indicator requires confirmation via filters like SMA 2x or ADX to validate momentum. Filters reduce false entries, though no guarantee exists for improved outcomes. Monitor price action post-entry for trade validity.
Filters like Momentum or ADX assess trend strength before entry. For example, ADX above 25 confirms strong trends. Choose “none” for unfiltered entries.
🟣 Bullish Alert
For a bullish trade, the indicator opens a long position with a green SL Line (after optional filters), trailing the SL below price. Set alerts to On in the settings for notifications, or Off to monitor manually.
🟣 Bearish Alert
In a bearish trade, the indicator opens a short position with a red SL Line post-confirmation, trailing the SL above price. With alerts On in the settings, it notifies the potential reversal.
🟣 Panel
A table displays all trades’ details, including Win Rates, PNL, and trade status. This real-time data aids in tracking performance. Check the table to assess trade outcomes instantly.
Review the table regularly to evaluate trade performance and adjust settings. Consistent monitoring ensures alignment with market dynamics. This maximizes the indicator’s effectiveness.
🔵 Settings
Length (Default: 10) : Sets the pivot period for calculating SL levels, balancing sensitivity and reliability.
Base Level : Options (“Very tight,” “Tight,” “Wide,” “Very wide”) adjust SL distance via ATR.
Show EP Checkbox : Toggles visibility of the entry point on the chart.
Show PNL : Displays profit/loss data for active and closed trades.
Filter : Options (“none,” “SMA 2x,” “Momentum,” “ADX”) validate trade entries.
🔵 Conclusion
The trailing stop indicator, a dynamic risk management tool, adjusts SLs using pivot levels and ATR. Its confirmation filters reduce false entries, boosting precision. Backtests show 20% loss reduction in trending markets.
Customizable SL settings and visual profit zones enhance usability across trading styles. The real-time table provides clear trade insights, streamlining analysis. It’s ideal for forex, stocks, or crypto.
While filters like ADX improve entry accuracy, no setup guarantees success in all conditions. Contextual analysis, like trend strength, is key. This indicator empowers disciplined, data-driven trading.
Statistical Trailing Stop [LuxAlgo]The Statistical Trailing Stop tool offers traders a way to lock in profits in trending markets with four statistical levels based on the log-normal distribution of volatility.
The indicator also features a dashboard with statistics of all detected signals.
🔶 USAGE
The tool works out of the box, traders can adjust the data used with two parameters: data & distribution length.
By default, the tool takes volatility measures of groups of 10 candles, and statistical measures of the last 100 of these groups then traders can adjust the base level to use as trailing, the larger the level, the more resistant the tool will be to moves against the trend.
🔹 Base Levels
Traders can choose up to 4 different levels of trailing, all based on the statistical distribution of volatility.
As we can see in the chart above, each higher level is more resistant to market movements, so level 0 is the most reactive and level 3 the least.
It is up to the trader to determine the best level for each underlying, time frame and market conditions.
🔹 Dashboard
The tool provides a dashboard with the statistics of all trades, making it very easy to assess the performance of the parameters used for any given market.
As we can see on the chart, all Daily BTC signals with default parameters but different base levels, level 2 is the best performing of all four, giving a positive expectation of $2435 per trade, taking into account all long and short trades.
Of note are the long trades with a win rate of 76.47% and a risk-to-reward of 3.34, giving a positive expectation of $4839 per trade, with winners having an average duration of 210 days and losers 32 days.
This, compared to short trades with negative expectation, speaks to the uptrend bias of this particular market.

Ehlers Adaptive Trend Indicator [Alpha Extract]Ehlers Adaptive Trend Indicator
The Ehlers Adaptive Trend Indicator combines Ehlers' advanced digital signal processing techniques with dynamic volatility bands to identify robust trend conditions and potential reversals. This powerful tool helps traders visualize trend strength, adaptive support/resistance levels, and momentum shifts across various market conditions.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator employs a sophisticated adaptive algorithm that responds to changing market conditions:
• Ehlers Filter : Calculates a weighted average based on momentum differences to create an adaptive trend baseline.
• Dynamic Bands : Volatility-adjusted bands that expand and contract based on recent price action.
• Trend Level : A dynamic support/resistance level that adapts to the current trend direction.
• Smoothed Volatility : Market volatility measured and smoothed to provide reliable band width.
Formula:
• Ehlers Basis = Weighted average of price, with weights determined by momentum differences
• Volatility = Standard deviation of price over Ehlers Length period
• Smoothed Volatility = EMA of volatility over Smoothing Length
• Upper Band = Ehlers Basis + Smoothed Volatility × Sensitivity
• Lower Band = Ehlers Basis - Smoothed Volatility × Sensitivity
• Trend Level = Adaptive support in uptrends, resistance in downtrends
🔶 DETAILS
Visual Features :
• Ehlers Basis Line (Yellow): The core adaptive trend reference that serves as the primary trend indicator.
• Trend Level Line (Dynamic Color): Changes between green (bullish) and red (bearish) based on the current trend state.
• Fill Areas : Transparent green fill during bullish trends and transparent red fill during bearish trends for clear visual identification.
• Bar Coloring : Optional price bar coloring that reflects the current trend direction for enhanced visualization.
Interpretation :
• **Bullish Signal**: Price crosses above the upper band, triggering a trend change with the Trend Level becoming dynamic support.
• **Bearish Signal**: Price drops below the lower band, confirming a trend change with the Trend Level becoming dynamic resistance.
• **Trend Continuation**: Trend Level rises in bullish markets and falls in bearish markets, providing adaptive trailing support/resistance.
🔶 EXAMPLES
The chart demonstrates:
• Bullish Trend Identification : When price breaks above the upper band, the indicator shifts to bullish mode with green trend level and fill.
• Bearish Trend Identification : When price falls below the lower band, the indicator shifts to bearish mode with red trend level and fill.
• Trend Persistence : Trend Level adapts to market movement, rising during uptrends to provide dynamic support and falling during downtrends to act as resistance.
Example Snapshots :
• During a strong uptrend, the Trend Level continuously adjusts upward, keeping traders in the trend while filtering out minor retracements.
• During trend reversals, clear color changes and Trend Level shifts provide early warning of potential direction changes.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options :
• Ehlers Length (p1) (Default: 30): Controls the primary adaptive calculation period, balancing responsiveness with stability.

The Ehlers Adaptive Trend Indicator combines John Ehlers' digital signal processing expertise with modern volatility analysis to create a robust trend-following system that adapts to changing market conditions, helping traders stay on the right side of the market.
Stop/Take BoundsThe Stop/Take Bounds indicator is tool for setting dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels based on percentage distance from the price. Unlike traditional ATR-based methods, this indicator allows traders to set stop levels as a fixed percentage of the price and define the take-profit multiple.
- Stop-loss distanceis determined as a percentage of the current price (e.g., 1% means the stop-loss is always 1% away from the price).
- Take-profit distance is calculated by multiplying the stop-loss distance by a user-defined multiplier (e.g., a multiplier of 2 places the take-profit level twice as far as the stop-loss).
- The indicator plots red lines for stop-loss levels and green lines for take-profit levels, making it easy to visualize risk-to-reward scenarios.
How to Use
1. Set Stop-Loss Distance (%) – Define how far the stop-loss should be from the price.
2. Set Take-Profit Multiplier – Choose how many times larger the take-profit should be compared to the stop-loss.
3. Apply to Long and Short Trades – The indicator automatically plots levels for both long and short positions.
4. Use in Manual or Algorithmic Trading – Ideal for discretionary traders as well as for integration into algorithmic strategies.
Use Cases
- Risk Management – Helps maintain disciplined risk-to-reward ratios.
- Strategy Development – Can be used in the creation of algorithmic trading systems.
- Trailing Stop Simulation – Can act as a trailing stop mechanism when used dynamically.
This indicator is a great addition to any trading strategy!
Adaptive RSI with Real-Time Divergence [AIBitcoinTrend]👽 Adaptive RSI Trailing Stop (AIBitcoinTrend)
The Adaptive RSI Trailing Stop is an indicator that integrates Gaussian-weighted RSI calculations with real-time divergence detection and a dynamic ATR-based trailing stop. This advanced approach allows traders to monitor momentum shifts, identify divergences early, and manage risk with adaptive trailing stop levels that adjust to price action.
👽 What Makes the Adaptive RSI with Signals and Trailing Stop Unique?
Unlike traditional RSI indicators, this version applies a Gaussian-weighted smoothing algorithm, making it more responsive to price action while reducing noise. Additionally, the trailing stop feature dynamically adjusts based on volatility and trend conditions, allowing traders to:
Detects real-time divergences (bullish/bearish) with a smart pivot-based system.
Filter noise with Gaussian weighting, ensuring smoother RSI transitions.
Utilize crossover-based trailing stop activation, for systematic trade management.
👽 The Math Behind the Indicator
👾 Gaussian Weighted RSI Calculation
Traditional RSI calculations rely on simple averages of gains and losses. Instead, this indicator weights recent price changes using a Gaussian distribution, prioritizing more relevant data points while maintaining smooth transitions.
Key Features:
Exponential decay ensures recent price changes are weighted more heavily.
Reduces short-term noise while maintaining responsiveness.
👾 Real-Time Divergence Detection
The indicator detects bullish and bearish divergences using pivot points on RSI compared to price action.
👾 Dynamic ATR-Based Trailing Stop
Bullish Trailing Stop: Activates when RSI crosses above 20 and dynamically adjusts based on low - ATR multiplier.
Bearish Trailing Stop: Activates when RSI crosses below 80 and adjusts based on high + ATR multiplier
This allows traders to:
Lock in profits systematically by adjusting stop-losses dynamically.
Stay in trades longer while maintaining adaptive risk management.
👽 How It Adapts to Market Movements
✔️ Gaussian Filtering ensures smooth RSI transitions while preventing excessive lag.
✔️ Real-Time Divergence Alerts provide early trade signals based on price-RSI discrepancies.
✔️ ATR Trailing Stop dynamically expands or contracts based on market volatility.
✔️ Crossover-Based Activation enables the stop-loss system only when RSI confirms a momentum shift.
👽 How Traders Can Use This Indicator
👾 Divergence Trading
Traders can use real-time divergence detection to anticipate reversals before they happen.
Bullish Divergence Setup:
Look for RSI making a higher low, while price makes a lower low.
Enter long when RSI confirms upward momentum.
Bearish Divergence Setup:
Look for RSI making a lower high, while price makes a higher high.
Enter short when RSI confirms downward momentum.
👾 Trailing Stop Signals
Bullish Signal and Trailing Stop Activation:
When RSI crosses above 20, a trailing stop is placed using low - ATR multiplier.
If price crosses below the stop, it exits the trade and removes the stop.
Bearish Signal and Trailing Stop Activation:
When RSI crosses below 80, a trailing stop is placed using high + ATR multiplier.
If price crosses above the stop, it exits the trade and removes the stop.
This makes trend-following strategies more efficient, while ensuring proper risk management.
👽 Why It’s Useful for Traders
✔️ Dynamic and Adaptive: Adjusts to changing market conditions automatically.
✔️ Noise Reduction: Gaussian-weighted RSI reduces short-term price distortions.
✔️ Comprehensive Strategy Tool: Combines momentum detection, divergence analysis, and automated risk management into a single indicator.

Multi Timeframe Market Formation [LuxAlgo]The Multi Timeframe Market Formation tool allows traders to analyze up to 6 different timeframes simultaneously to discover their current formation, S/R levels and their degree of synchronization with the current chart timeframe. Multi timeframe analysis made easy.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool displays the chart's timeframe formation plus up to 5 other formations on timeframes higher than the one in the chart.
When the chart formation is synchronized with any enabled timeframe formation, the tool displays labels and a trailing channel, it uses a gradient by default, so the more timeframes are synchronized, the more visible the labels and the trailing channel are.
All timeframes enabled in the settings panel must be higher than the chart timeframe, otherwise the tool will display an error message.
🔹 Formations
A formation is a market structure defined by a lower and an upper boundary (also known as support & resistance).
Each formation has a different symbol and color to identify it at a glance.
It helps traders to know the current market behavior and the tool displays up to 5 of them.
BULLISH (green ▲): higher high and higher low
BEARISH (red ▼): lower high and lower low
CONTRACTION (orange ◀): lower high and higher low
EXPANSION (blue ▶): higher high and lower low
SIDEWAYS (yellow ◀): Any that does not fit with the others
🔹 Multi Timeframe Formations
The tool displays up to 6 different timeframe formations, the chart timeframe plus 5 more configurable from the settings panel.
Each of them has an upper and lower limit, a timeframe, a color and an icon.
If a bound level is shared by more than one formation, the timeframes and symbols are displayed on the same line.
These are significant levels shared by different timeframes and traders need to be aware of them.
🔹 Sync With Chart Timeframe
If the current formation on the chart timeframe is in sync with any of the timeframes enabled in the settings panel, the tool will display this on the chart.
The more timeframes are in sync, the more they are visible, providing a clear visual representation of the common market behavior on multiple timeframes at the same time.

3 EMA + RSI with Trail Stop [Free990] (LOW TF)This trading strategy combines three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to identify trend direction, uses RSI to signal exit conditions, and applies both a fixed percentage stop-loss and a trailing stop for risk management. It aims to capture momentum when the faster EMAs cross the slower EMA, then uses RSI thresholds, time-based exits, and stops to close trades.
Short Explanation of the Logic
Trend Detection: When the 10 EMA crosses above the 20 EMA and both are above the 100 EMA (and the current price bar closes higher), it triggers a long entry signal. The reverse happens for a short (the 10 EMA crosses below the 20 EMA and both are below the 100 EMA).
RSI Exit: RSI crossing above a set threshold closes long trades; crossing below another threshold closes short trades.
Time-Based Exit: If a trade is in profit after a set number of bars, the strategy closes it.
Stop-Loss & Trailing Stop: A fixed stop-loss based on a percentage from the entry price guards against large drawdowns. A trailing stop dynamically tightens as the trade moves in favor, locking in potential gains.
Detailed Explanation of the Strategy Logic
Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Setup
Short EMA (out_a, length=10)
Medium EMA (out_b, length=20)
Long EMA (out_c, length=100)
The code calculates three separate EMAs to gauge short-term, medium-term, and longer-term trend behavior. By comparing their relative positions, the strategy infers whether the market is bullish (EMAs stacked positively) or bearish (EMAs stacked negatively).
Entry Conditions
Long Entry (entryLong): Occurs when:
The short EMA (10) crosses above the medium EMA (20).
Both EMAs (short and medium) are above the long EMA (100).
The current bar closes higher than it opened (close > open).
This suggests that momentum is shifting to the upside (short-term EMAs crossing up and price action turning bullish). If there’s an existing short position, it’s closed first before opening a new long.
Short Entry (entryShort): Occurs when:
The short EMA (10) crosses below the medium EMA (20).
Both EMAs (short and medium) are below the long EMA (100).
The current bar closes lower than it opened (close < open).
This indicates a potential shift to the downside. If there’s an existing long position, that gets closed first before opening a new short.
Exit Signals
RSI-Based Exits:
For long trades: When RSI exceeds a specified threshold (e.g., 70 by default), it triggers a long exit. RSI > short_rsi generally means overbought conditions, so the strategy exits to lock in profits or avoid a pullback.
For short trades: When RSI dips below a specified threshold (e.g., 30 by default), it triggers a short exit. RSI < long_rsi indicates oversold conditions, so the strategy closes the short to avoid a bounce.
Time-Based Exit:
If the trade has been open for xBars bars (configurable, e.g., 24 bars) and the trade is in profit (current price above entry for a long, or current price below entry for a short), the strategy closes the position. This helps lock in gains if the move takes too long or momentum stalls.
Stop-Loss Management
Fixed Stop-Loss (% Based): Each trade has a fixed stop-loss calculated as a percentage from the average entry price.
For long positions, the stop-loss is set below the entry price by a user-defined percentage (fixStopLossPerc).
For short positions, the stop-loss is set above the entry price by the same percentage.
This mechanism prevents catastrophic losses if the market moves strongly against the position.
Trailing Stop:
The strategy also sets a trail stop using trail_points (the distance in price points) and trail_offset (how quickly the stop “catches up” to price).
As the market moves in favor of the trade, the trailing stop gradually tightens, allowing profits to run while still capping potential drawdowns if the price reverses.
Order Execution Flow
When the conditions for a new position (long or short) are triggered, the strategy first checks if there’s an opposite position open. If there is, it closes that position before opening the new one (prevents going “both long and short” simultaneously).
RSI-based and time-based exits are checked on each bar. If triggered, the position is closed.
If the position remains open, the fixed stop-loss and trailing stop remain in effect until the position is exited.
Why This Combination Works
Multiple EMA Cross: Combining 10, 20, and 100 EMAs balances short-term momentum detection with a longer-term trend filter. This reduces false signals that can occur if you only look at a single crossover without considering the broader trend.
RSI Exits: RSI provides a momentum oscillator view—helpful for detecting overbought/oversold conditions, acting as an extra confirmation to exit.
Time-Based Exit: Prevents “lingering trades.” If the position is in profit but failing to advance further, it takes profit rather than risking a trend reversal.
Fixed & Trailing Stop-Loss: The fixed stop-loss is your safety net to cap worst-case losses. The trailing stop allows the strategy to lock in gains by following the trade as it moves favorably, thus maximizing profit potential while keeping risk in check.
Overall, this approach tries to capture momentum from EMA crossovers, protect profits with trailing stops, and limit risk through both a fixed percentage stop-loss and exit signals from RSI/time-based logic.

Trailing Stop Loss Smart [TradingFinder] Market Trend + CVD/EMA🔵 Introduction
Trailing Stop Loss (TSL) is one of the most powerful tools available. A Trailing Stop Loss is a modification of a typical stop order that adjusts dynamically based on market price movement. It can be set at a defined percentage or dollar amount away from the security's current market price, making it a flexible tool for locking in profits while minimizing risk. Unlike standard stop-loss orders, a Trailing Stop follows the market in the direction of the trade, protecting gains without requiring constant manual adjustments.
The Trailing Stop Loss Smart (TFlab Trailing Stop) indicator takes this concept even further by incorporating advanced metrics like Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), volume dynamics, and Average True Range (ATR). This combination not only enhances risk management but also acts as a trend identifier, providing traders with a powerful tool to capitalize on both short-term and long-term price movements.
This indicator also supports various Order Types, allowing for flexible strategies that include a trailing stop/stop-loss combo to maximize winning trades while minimizing losses. The trailing stop limit is particularly useful for traders who want to set their stop at a precise level relative to the current market price, either by a percentage or a dollar amount. The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator can help ensure that traders do not exit too early during trends, while the stop-loss feature kicks in during reversals.
The advantages of using a Trailing Stop Loss are its ability to protect profits and reduce the emotional decision-making process in volatile markets. However, like all trading strategies, it has disadvantages, such as the risk of triggering too early during normal market fluctuations. By understanding how the Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator integrates features like CVD, ATR, and volume analysis, traders can leverage its full potential while navigating these pros and cons.
With its unique ability to track market movements and trends using Cumulative Volume Delta, volume dynamics, and ATR-based trailing stops, this indicator offers a complete solution for traders looking to secure profits while minimizing downside risk. Whether you're employing a simple trailing stop or a trailing stop/stop-loss combo, this tool provides all the flexibility and precision needed to execute winning trades in various markets, including Forex, Crypto, and Stock.
🔵 How to Use
The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator integrates multiple advanced components to provide traders with superior risk management and trend identification.
Here’s how each part of the logic works :
🟣 Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) Logic
The CVD tracks buying and selling pressure by calculating the difference between upward and downward price movements. When there’s more buying pressure, the CVD is positive, indicating a potential bullish trend. Conversely, more selling pressure results in a negative CVD, pointing to a bearish trend.
CVD Trend Detection : The indicator determines whether the market is in a bullish or bearish phase by comparing the CVD to its moving average. A bullish trend is confirmed when the CVD is above its moving average and the price is closing higher.
A bearish trend occurs when the CVD is below its moving average and the price is closing lower. This trend detection is critical for determining whether the trailing stop should be placed below the price (bullish) or above it (bearish).
🟣 Volume Dynamics
Volume is a key factor in identifying market strength. The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator pulls volume data based on the market selected (Forex, Crypto, or Stock) and adjusts the trailing stop based on whether the market is experiencing high volume or low volume.
High Volume : When the current volume exceeds the average volume, the market is in a high-volume state. During these conditions, the trailing stop is placed closer to the price, as high volume often indicates strong trends with less chance of reversals.
Low Volume : In low-volume conditions, the trailing stop gives the market more room to breathe by placing the stop further away from the price. This prevents premature stop-outs in periods of reduced market activity.
🟣 ATR-Based Trailing Stop
The Average True Range (ATR) is used to measure market volatility. The Trailing Stop Loss Smart uses the ATR to dynamically adjust the stop-loss distance.
Bullish Market : When a bullish trend is detected, the trailing stop is placed below the lowest price of the recent bars (determined by the Bar Back parameter), and adjusted by the ATR Multiplier. This allows for tighter protection during strong bullish trends.
Bearish Market : When the market is bearish, the trailing stop is placed above the highest price of recent bars, also adjusted by the ATR Multiplier. This ensures that short positions are safeguarded against sudden reversals.
🟣 Dynamic Stop-Loss Updates
The trailing stop is updated every few bars (according to the Refiner parameter), ensuring it remains relevant to the most recent price action and volume changes. This dynamic feature ensures the stop-loss adapts to both trending and volatile market conditions, without requiring manual intervention.
High Volume with Trends : In periods of high volume and a confirmed trend, the stop-loss is positioned tightly to lock in profits while minimizing the risk of reversal.
Low Volume with Trends : In low-volume conditions, the stop-loss is placed further from the price, allowing the market to move freely without triggering premature exits.
🟣 Visual Representation
The indicator visually represents the trailing stop on the chart, with green lines indicating bullish trends and red lines for bearish trends. This visual aid helps traders quickly assess the state of the market and the position of their trailing stop in real-time.
🔵 Settings
The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator offers several customizable settings to suit various trading strategies. Understanding these inputs is key to optimizing the tool for your specific trading style.
🟣 General Settings
Cumulative Mode : This controls how the CVD is calculated.
You can choose between :

Periodic : Sums the delta over a fixed period.
CVD Period : Defines the look-back period for CVD calculation. A longer period smooths the data, making it less sensitive to short-term fluctuations.
Ultra Data : This Boolean input aggregates volume across multiple exchanges for a more comprehensive view of market activity.
Market Ultra Data : Select between Forex, Crypto, and Stock to ensure the indicator pulls accurate volume data for your market.
🟣 Logical Settings
Moving Average CVD Period : Defines the period for the moving average of the CVD. A longer period smooths the trend, reducing noise.
Moving Average Volume Period : Sets the period for the moving average used to distinguish between high and low volume conditions.
Level Finder Bar Back : Determines how many bars to look back when identifying the highest or lowest price for trailing stop placement.
Levels update per candles : Sets how often (in bars) the trailing stop should be updated to remain in sync with market movements.
ATR On : Toggles the use of ATR to adjust the trailing stop based on volatility.
ATR Multiplie r: Defines how far the stop is placed from the price based on the ATR. A larger multiplier increases the stop distance, reducing the likelihood of getting stopped out during market fluctuations.
ATR Multiplier Adjusts the distance of the trailing stop based on the ATR. A higher multiplier places the stop further from the price, providing more breathing room in volatile markets.
🔵 Conclusion
The Trailing Stop Loss Smart indicator is a comprehensive tool for traders looking to manage risk while identifying market trends. By incorporating Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) to detect buying and selling pressure, volume dynamics to gauge market activity, and ATR to adjust for volatility, this indicator ensures that stop-loss levels are both adaptive and protective.
Whether you’re trading in Forex, Crypto, or Stock markets, the Trailing Stop Loss Smart allows you to capitalize on trends while dynamically adjusting to changing market conditions.

Chandelier Exit Pro w/ExtensionsChandelier Exit Pro w/Extensions
The Chandelier Exit Pro w/Extensions indicator is designed to assist traders in managing risk and identifying trend reversals. The strategy is based on the Chandelier Exit concept, originally created by Charles Le Beau. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate dynamic stop levels that adjust based on market volatility. This script not only implements the standard Chandelier Exit, but also introduces extension levels and alerts to enhance decision-making.
Key Features:
➡️Dynamic Stop Levels: The indicator calculates stop levels for both long and short positions based on an ATR multiple. This allows traders to determine exit points by monitoring when the price crosses above or below these levels. These levels adapt in real-time based on price volatility, making them a versatile tool for trend-following strategies.
➡️Extension Levels: In addition to the primary stop levels, the script includes extension levels for more advanced stop-loss management. Traders can view active and extension levels separately, providing more flexibility in their exit strategies.
➡️Labels and Visual Cues: The indicator provides dynamic labels that automatically update and follow the plotted stop levels. Labels include the ATR multiplier value (e.g., "2.5" or "2.5ext"), clearly showing the significance of each level. When price crosses below or above a level, the corresponding label is highlighted, aiding traders in quickly identifying the most relevant stop level.
➡️Bar Confirmation and Alerts: The script includes an "await bar confirmation" option to ensure that the stop levels and alerts only trigger after the bar has closed. Alerts are customizable and will notify traders when price crosses critical levels, helping to make timely decisions without the need to constantly monitor charts.
➡️Multiple ATR Levels for Enhanced Precision: The indicator supports up to four different ATR levels, each with customizable multipliers. This allows traders to set different thresholds for exits based on varying degrees of volatility. For example, Level 1 (2.5x ATR) might represent a tighter stop, while Level 4 (10x ATR) could serve as a wider stop for long-term positions.
➡️Calc_bars_count: Improves efficiency of the indicator by reducing the on-chart calculations in to the past. This input can be found at the bottom of the INPUTS tab.
How it Helps Traders:
💥Trend Identification: By using the Chandelier Exit levels, traders can identify when the trend is likely to reverse. When the price crosses below the stop level in a long trade or above the stop level in a short trade, it signals a potential exit point.
💥Volatility-based Adjustments: Unlike static stop-loss methods, the ATR-based stop levels dynamically adjust based on the market’s volatility. This means tighter stops during low volatility periods and wider stops during high volatility periods, reducing the chance of being stopped out prematurely.
💥Risk Management: The dynamic stop levels and extension levels provide a structured way to manage risk. Traders can set tighter stops for short-term trades and wider stops for longer-term trades. The script's visual labels make it easy to track these levels in real-time.
💥Automation with Alerts: The built-in alert system ensures that traders are notified when key levels are crossed. This helps to avoid emotional decision-making and allows for better execution of trading strategies.
Confluence and Price Fluidity:
One of the powerful ways to enhance the effectiveness of the Chandelier Exit indicator is by using it in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to create confluence. Confluence occurs when multiple indicators or price action signals align, providing stronger confirmation for a trade decision. For example:
🎯Support and Resistance Levels: Traders can use the Chandelier Exit levels in combination with key support and resistance zones. If the price is nearing a support level and the Chandelier Exit signals a bullish reversal, this alignment strengthens the case for entering a long position.
🎯Moving Averages: When the Chandelier Exit signals a trend reversal and this is confirmed by a crossover in moving averages (such as a 50-day and 200-day moving average), traders gain additional confidence in the trade direction.
🎯Momentum Indicators: Traders can also look for momentum indicators like RSI or MACD to confirm the strength of a trend or potential reversal. For instance, if the Chandelier Exit triggers a short signal and the RSI also shows overbought conditions, this could provide stronger confirmation to exit a long trade or enter a short position.
🎯Candlestick Patterns: Price fluidity can be monitored using candlestick formations. For example, a bearish engulfing pattern near a Chandelier Exit resistance level offers confluence, adding confidence to the signal to close or short the trade.
By combining the Chandelier Exit with other tools, traders ensure that they are not relying on a single indicator. This layered approach can reduce the likelihood of false signals and improve overall trading accuracy.
Practical Use Case:
Imagine a trader enters a long position, and the price moves favorably. Using the Chandelier Exit, the trader sets the initial stop level at 2.5x ATR below the highest close. As the price continues to rise, the stop level follows the price, locking in profits. If the market suddenly turns, the price crossing below the stop level signals an exit, helping the trader preserve gains. With extension levels, the trader can further refine exits, adjusting based on their risk tolerance and market conditions.
Good luck and I hope that you can find a place in your tool bag to use this dynamic indicator 🙏
Trailing Stop ProTrailing Stop Pro is a sophisticated TradingView indicator designed to enhance your trading strategy by dynamically managing trailing stops based on market volatility. This tool leverages the Average True Range (ATR) to adjust stop levels, providing traders with a robust mechanism to protect profits and minimize losses.
Key Features:
Dynamic Trailing Stops: Automatically adjusts stop levels using ATR, allowing for responsive and adaptive risk management.
Customizable Inputs: Tailor the indicator to your trading style with adjustable parameters such as ATR Length, ATR Multiplier, and Source Vector.
Visual Clarity: Distinct color settings for long and short stops, with adjustable line thickness and transparency, ensuring clear visualization on your charts.
Professional Grade: The "Pro" designation signifies advanced features suitable for both novice and experienced traders seeking reliable and efficient stop management.
How It Works:
To set up the indicator, begin by defining the Chrono Point, which specifies the exact time you want the trailing stop mechanism to activate. This allows for precise control over when your stops begin to trail. Next, set the Credit Unit as the initial entry price for your trade, serving as the baseline from which the trailing stops will adjust.
The indicator uses ATR-based adjustments to determine stop levels. Customize the sensitivity of the trailing stop by adjusting the ATR Length (default is 14) and ATR Multiplier (default is 0.5). A longer ATR length smooths out volatility, while a higher multiplier increases the distance of the stop from the price.
Select your Source Vector from "High/Low," "Close," or "Open" prices as the basis for stop calculation. This flexibility allows you to align the indicator with your preferred trading strategy. The indicator plots trailing stops directly on the chart, with color-coded lines indicating long (teal) and short (red) positions. You can adjust the line thickness and transparency for optimal visibility.
The Mission Status feature automatically detects whether the trade is long or short and adjusts the trailing stop accordingly. If the price hits the trailing stop, the trade is considered exited, and the indicator calculates the profit or loss percentage.
Benefits:
Risk Management: Protect your trades from adverse market movements while locking in profits as prices move favorably.
Automation: Reduce manual intervention with automatic stop adjustments, allowing you to focus on strategic decision-making.
