How to use Leverage and Margin in PineScriptEn route to being absolutely the best and most complete trading platform out there, TradingView has just closed 2 gaps in their PineScript language.
It is now possible to create and backtest a strategy for trading with leverage.
Backtester now produces Margin Calls - so recognizes mid-trade drawdown and if it is too big for the broker to maintain your trade, some part of if will be instantly closed.
New additions were announced in official blogpost , but it lacked code examples, so I have decided to publish this script. Having said that - this is purely educational stuff.
█ LEVERAGE
Let's start with the Leverage. I will discuss this assuming we are always entering trades with some percentage of our equity balance (default_qty_type = strategy.percent_of_equity), not fixed order quantity.
If you want to trade with 1:1 leverage (so no leverage) and enter a trade with all money in your trading account, then first line of your strategy script must include this parameter:
default_qty_value = 100 // which stands for 100%
Now, if you want to trade with 30:1 leverage, you need to multipy the quantity by 30x, so you'd get 30 x 100 = 3000:
default_qty_value = 3000 // which stands for 3000%
And you can play around with this value as you wish, so if you want to enter each trade with 10% equity on 15:1 leverage you'd get default_qty_value = 150.
That's easy. Of course you can modify this quantity value not only in the script, but also afterwards in Script Settings popup, "Properties" tab.
█ MARGIN
Second newly released feature is Margin calculation together with Margin Calls. If the market goes against your trades and your trading account cannot maintain mid-trade drawdown - those trades will be closed in full or partly. Also, if your trading account cannot afford to open more trades (pyramiding those trades), Margin mechanism will prevent them from being entered.
I will not go into details about how Margin calculation works, it was all explainged in above mentioned blogpost and documentation .
All you need to do is to add two parameters to the opening line of your script:
margin_long = 1./30*50, margin_short = 1./30*50
Whereas "30" is a leverage scale as in 30:1, and "50" stands for 50% of Margin required by your broker. Personally the Required Margin number I've met most often is 50%, so I'm using value 50 here, but there are literally 1000+ brokers in this world and this is individual decision by each of them, so you'd better ask yourself.
--------------------
Please note, that if you ever encounter a strategy which triggers Margin Call at least once, then it is probably a very bad strategy. Margin Call is a last resort, last security measure - all the risks should be calculated by the strategy algorithm before it is ever hit. So if you see a Margin Call being triggred, then something is wrong with risk management of the strategy. Therefore - don't use it!

DMT 369 DRAGRONFLY STRATSuccessful traders trade with a fixed plan and without emotion, but this a lot harder than many new traders think. Many never master this skill and suffer continual drawdowns on their accounts as they overtrade high leverage positions in volatile markets.
ĐΜŦ Autobot resolves this issue by taking the human element out of the equation, allowing full automation of trades using TradingView alerts to trigger your favourite trading bot, such as Alertatron or 3Commas.
Being a Trend Reversal Indicator based on Volatility & Average True Range, ĐΜŦ Autobot is designed to identify spots in the market that offer suitable scalp and swing trade opportunities.
Due to popular demand we have expanded our ĐΜŦ Autobot product line to include the new ĐΜŦ Autobot Dragonfly 3-6-9 Edition which combines DMT with 3-6-9 Vortex mathematics, our Titan indicator and a multi-ladder scalping strategy to ensure you maintain a preferable average entry when price action moves against your position.
Indicator View
It its default state the DMT Autobot Dragonfly indicator displays key signal information, such as:
• Support & resistance range lines
• Titan Body Small & Large Time Frame lines
• Long & Short entry positions
• Long & Short position ladders
• Profit targets
Dragonfly displays a range between resistance (upper line) and support (lower line) on the chart.
Once the price is granted support in the range the lower line will turn green. As price action develops it will make repeated attempts to test support. If support holds price will attempt to test the resistance line (red).
When resistance is broken and the price is above the upper line, the line will turn blue confirming the bullish momentum and provide a potential buy opportunity.
Price action will make attempts to test the upper line as support and will keep rising while support is granted.
Once support is lost the upper line will become red once more. As price action develops it will make repeated attempts to test resistance. If resistance holds, the price will attempt to test the support line (green).
When support is broken and the price goes below the lower line, the line will turn red confirming the bearish momentum and provide a potential selling opportunity.
Price action will make attempts to test the lower line as resistance and will keep dropping while resistance is granted.
Titan Body
The Titan Body Small & Large time frame options in the indicator add additional trendlines to the chart to provide further clarity and confirmation to the Support & Resistance range indication.
Once price is granted support by the Small Time Frame trend line the line will turn green. As price action develops it will make repeated attempts to test the Small Time Frame support. Once the price is below the Small Time Frame trend line, the line will turn red and can act as resistance in a trend reversal.
When price is granted support by the Large Time Frame trend line the line will turn cyan. As price action develops it will make repeated attempts to test the Large Time Frame support. Once the price is below the Large Time Frame trend line, the line will turn orange and can act as resistance in a trend reversal.
The Titan Body enabled and customized in the indicator’s style settings,
Alert indicators
DMT Autobot Dragonfly Edition generates signals that can be used to scalp trade a volatile asset.
Signals are enabled and customized in the indicator’s input settings Additional options can be found in the options, but it is recommended that these are left at the default, as shown below. The indicator generates many
Entry and Profit levels can be disabled or customized in the indicator’s style settings,
Tradingview Alerts
Using Tradingview alerts, DMT Autobot Dragonfly signals can be used to trigger a trading bot.
To trigger a long or short position, set the Tradingview Alert Condition to DMT 369 Dragonfly and select the long or short option.
It is recommended that long or short positions are configured to trigger Once Per Bar Close
Ladders can also be triggered using alerts. To trigger a ladder order, set the Tradingview Alert Condition to DMT 369 Dragonfly and select the appropriate Long or Short ADD option that is to be triggered by the relevant values defined in the indicator’s configuration.
It is recommended that ladder orders are configured to trigger Once Per Bar,
To trigger a take profit order, set the Tradingview Alert Condition to DMT 369 Dragonfly and select the Long or Short TP option that is to be triggered by the relevant values defined in the indicator’s configuration.
Take profit orders can be configured as Once Per Bar Close or Once Per Minute.
If you wish to trigger a take profit signal immediately when the indicator’s defined take profit value is achieved, then use the Once Per Bar option.
Selecting Once Per Bar Close to generate a take profit signal is a gamble as the candle may close far away from the defined profit target – positive or negative.
While stops can be used, they are not applicable to the recommended ladder strategy.
Ladder Strategy
The DMT Autobot Dragonfly indicator always turns an underwater position into a win by utilizing a ladder strategy.
By using the recommended defaults, the indicator will trigger ladder orders at 3%, 6% & 9% using increasing order sizes,
Order sizes increase exponentially to ensure a good average price is maintained. If you are not using DMT Autobot Dragonfly signals to trigger ladder or take profit orders, please ensure your trading bot is configured to recalculate the new ladder entry and profit target based on the new average position entry price as each ladder is filled.
If you are using DMT Autobot Dragonfly on a leveraged asset, please ensure the leverage position is configured suitably so that your position is not liquidated if the price rapidly moves against you.

ĐΜŦ is designed to identify spots in the market that offer some of the most suitable buy and sell scalping trading opportunities plus swing trading over runs.
ĐΜŦ is comprised of three inputs, which are helping to identify the volatility of a security. To determine the level of volatility there are three ranges included in the equation
Input 1 - Current Day's Range
Input 2 - How High has the security risen from the previous day's close
Input 3 - How low has the security dropped from the previous day's close
One of the greatest challenges for new traders is avoiding drawdowns on their account. Drawdowns are what kills a trader's ability to consistently earn over the long haul and creates enormous emotional pain and turmoil.
Drawdowns are a result of two factors:
(1) over-leverage and
(2) extremely volatile stocks. One could argue that if you get to number 1 right, the volatility is irrelevant; however, these two elements are not always mutually exclusive.

Leverage Strategy and a few words on risk/opportunityHello traders,
I started this script as a joke for someone... finally appears it could be used for educational content
Let's talk about leverage and margin call
Margin Call
A margin call is the broker's demand that an investor deposit additional money or securities so that the account is brought up to the minimum value, known as the maintenance margin.
A margin call usually means that one or more of the securities held in the margin account has decreased in value below a certain point.
Leverage
A leverage is a system which allows the trader to open positions much larger than his own capital. ... “Leverage” usually refers to the ratio between the position value and the investment needed,
Strat
The strategy simulates long/short positions on a 4h high/low breakout based on the chart candle close.
The panel below shows the strategy equity curve. Activating the margin call option will show when the account would be margin called giving the settings
Casino
I'm not doing any financial recommendation here.
I made this strategy so that people include more risk management metrics into their strategy.
From the code, we see it's fairly easy to calculate a leveraged position size and a margin call flag - when that flag is hit, the system stops trading.
I simplified things to the extreme here but my point is that the leverage is a double-edge sword gift.
Assuming we always take the same position sizing, increasing the leverage speed up how fast a margin could be ..... called. (bad joke? feel free to tell me). Not saying it will, saying it introduces more risk by design.
Then one could say "I'll just turn off that stupid margin call option". And that's when someone starts backtesting with unrealistic market conditions.
Finally...
When I backtest I always assume the worst in every scenario possible (because I'm French), I always try to minimize the risk first (also because I'm French), keeping as close from 0 as possible (French again)
Then I add the "opportunity" component, looking to catch the maximum of opportunity while keeping the risk low.
It's like a Rubix cube puzzle - decreasing the risk is one side of the equation but whenever I try to catch more opportunity... my risks increases.
Then I update my risk... and now the opportunity decreases... (#wut #wen #simple)
Completely removing the risk from a trading strategy isn't something I wouldn't dare doing.
Trading involves risk. Being obsessed by decreasing the risk is what I do BEST :)

bee ZZBreakdown trading system ( TS ) based on the ZZ indicator ( zig-zag ) using SAR (stop and reverse). The system calculates the long level and short level, depending on the direction of the breakdown - we enter the long or short position. The strategy is always in position (in the market), the strategy being in the long side reverses the position at the short level, and accordingly, on the contrary, it is in short at the long level, thereby fixing profit / loss. The strategy has proved itself to be highly volatile. Strategy tested on BitMEX exchange. It is possible to get acquainted with the results of the strategy by running the script by history.
BTC strategy for margin tradingAlmost identical to the one I published before, but this one includes short orders as well.
I didn't spend much time backtesting, so there may be a different set of parameters that gives better results. Please let me know if you find something!
