SMB MagicSMB Magic
Overview: SMB Magic is a powerful technical strategy designed to capture breakout opportunities based on price movements, volume spikes, and trend-following logic. This strategy works exclusively on the XAU/USD symbol and is optimized for the 15-minute time frame. By incorporating multiple factors, this strategy identifies high-probability trades with a focus on risk management.
Key Features:
Breakout Confirmation:
This strategy looks for price breakouts above the previous high or below the previous low, with a significant volume increase. A breakout is considered valid when it is supported by strong volume, confirming the strength of the price move.
Price Movement Filter:
The strategy ensures that only significant price movements are considered for trades, helping to avoid low-volatility noise. This filter targets larger price swings to maximize potential profits.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
A long-term trend filter is applied to ensure that buy trades occur only when the price is above the moving average, and sell trades only when the price is below it.
Fibonacci Levels:
Custom Fibonacci retracement levels are drawn based on recent price action. These levels act as dynamic support and resistance zones and help determine the exit points for trades.
Take Profit/Stop Loss:
The strategy incorporates predefined take profit and stop loss levels, designed to manage risk effectively. These levels are automatically applied to trades and are adjusted based on the market's volatility.
Volume Confirmation:
A volume multiplier confirms the strength of the breakout. A trade is only considered when the volume exceeds a certain threshold, ensuring that the breakout is supported by sufficient market participation.
How It Works:
Entry Signals:
Buy Signal: A breakout above the previous high, accompanied by significant volume and price movement, occurs when the price is above the trend-following filter (e.g., EMA).
Sell Signal: A breakout below the previous low, accompanied by significant volume and price movement, occurs when the price is below the trend-following filter.
Exit Strategy:
Each position (long or short) has predefined take-profit and stop-loss levels, which are designed to protect capital and lock in profits at key points in the market.
Fibonacci Levels:
Fibonacci levels are drawn to identify potential areas of support or resistance, which can be used to guide exits and stop-loss placements.
Important Notes:
Timeframe Restriction: This strategy is designed specifically for the 15-minute time frame.
Symbol Restriction: The strategy works exclusively on the XAU/USD (Gold) symbol and is not recommended for use with other instruments.
Best Performance in Trending Markets: It works best in trending conditions where breakouts occur frequently.
Disclaimer:
Risk Warning: Trading involves risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Always conduct your own research and make informed decisions before trading.

STRATEGY Fibonacci Levels with High/Low Criteria - AYNET
Here is an explanation of the Fibonacci Levels Strategy with High/Low Criteria script:
Overview
This strategy combines Fibonacci retracement levels with high/low criteria to generate buy and sell signals based on price crossing specific thresholds. It utilizes higher timeframe (HTF) candlesticks and user-defined lookback periods for high/low levels.
Key Features
Higher Timeframe Integration:
The script calculates the open, high, low, and close values of the higher timeframe (HTF) candlestick.
Users can choose to calculate levels based on the current or the last HTF candle.

Fibonacci Levels Strategy with High/Low Criteria-AYNETThis code represents a TradingView strategy that uses Fibonacci levels in conjunction with high/low price criteria over specified lookback periods to determine buy (long) and sell (short) conditions. Below is an explanation of each main part of the code:
Explanation of Key Sections
User Inputs for Higher Time Frame and Candle Settings
Users can select a higher time frame (timeframe) for analysis and specify whether to use the "Current" or "Last" higher time frame (HTF) candle for calculating Fibonacci levels.
The currentlast setting allows flexibility between using real-time or the most recent closed higher time frame candle.
Lookback Periods for High/Low Criteria
Two lookback periods, lowestLookback and highestLookback, allow users to set the number of bars to consider when finding the lowest and highest prices, respectively.
This determines the criteria for entering trades based on how recent highs or lows compare to current prices.
Fibonacci Levels Configuration
Fibonacci levels (0%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%, and 100%) are configurable. These are used to calculate price levels between the high and low of the higher time frame candle.
Each level represents a retracement or extension relative to the high/low range of the HTF candle, providing important price levels for decision-making.
HTF Candle Calculation
HTF candle data is calculated based on the higher time frame selected by the user, using the newbar check to reset htfhigh, htflow, and htfopen values.
The values are updated with each new HTF bar or as prices move within the same HTF bar to track the highest high and lowest low accurately.
Set Fibonacci Levels Array
Using the calculated HTF candle's high, low, and open, the Fibonacci levels are computed by interpolating these values according to the user-defined Fibonacci levels.
A fibLevels array stores these computed values.
Plotting Fibonacci Levels
Each Fibonacci level is plotted on the chart with a different color, providing visual indicators for potential support/resistance levels.
High/Low Price Criteria Calculation
The lowest and highest prices over the specified lookback periods (lowestLookback and highestLookback) are calculated and plotted on the chart. These serve as dynamic levels to trigger long or short entries.
Trade Signal Conditions
longCondition: A long (buy) signal is generated when the price crosses above both the lowest price criteria and the 50% Fibonacci level.
shortCondition: A short (sell) signal is generated when the price crosses below both the highest price criteria and the 50% Fibonacci level.
Executing Trades
Based on the longCondition and shortCondition, trades are entered with the strategy.entry() function, using the labels "Long" and "Short" for tracking on the chart.
Strategy Use
This strategy allows traders to utilize Fibonacci retracement levels and recent highs/lows to identify trend continuation or reversal points, potentially providing entry points aligned with larger market structure. Adjusting the lowestLookback and highestLookback along with Fibonacci levels enables a customizable approach to suit different trading styles and market conditions.
TFMTFM Strategy Explanation
Overview
The TFM (Timeframe Multiplier) strategy is a PineScript trading bot that utilizes multiple timeframes to identify entry and exit points.
Inputs
1. tfm (Timeframe Multiplier): Multiplies the chart's timeframe to create a higher timeframe for analysis.
2. lns (Long and Short): Enables or disables short positions.
Logic
Calculations
1. chartTf: Gets the chart's timeframe in seconds.
2. tfTimes: Calculates the higher timeframe by multiplying chartTf with tfm.
3. MintickerClose and MaxtickerClose: Retrieve the minimum and maximum closing prices from the higher timeframe using request.security.
- MintickerClose: Finds the lowest low when the higher timeframe's close is below its open.
- MaxtickerClose: Finds the highest high when the higher timeframe's close is above its open.
Entries and Exits
1. Long Entry: When the current close price crosses above MaxtickerClose.
2. Short Entry (if lns is true): When the current close price crosses below MintickerClose.
3. Exit Long: When the short condition is met (if lns is false) or when the trade is manually closed.
Strategy
1. Attach the script to a chart.
2. Adjust tfm and lns inputs.
3. Monitor entries and exits.
Example Use Cases
1. Intraday trading with tfm = 2-5.
2. Swing trading with tfm = 10-30.
Tips
1. Experiment with different tfm values.
2. Use lns to control short positions.
3. Combine with other indicators for confirmation.
Honest Volatility Grid [Honestcowboy]The Honest Volatility Grid is an attempt at creating a robust grid trading strategy but without standard levels.
Normal grid systems use price levels like 1.01;1.02;1.03;1.04... and place an order at each of these levels. In this program instead we create a grid using keltner channels using a long term moving average.
🟦 IS THIS EVEN USEFUL?
The idea is to have a more fluid style of trading where levels expand and follow price and do not stick to precreated levels. This however also makes each closed trade different instead of using fixed take profit levels. In this strategy a take profit level can even be a loss. It is useful as a strategy because it works in a different way than most strategies, making it a good tool to diversify a portfolio of trading strategies.
🟦 STRATEGY
There are 10 levels below the moving average and 10 above the moving average. For each side of the moving average the strategy uses 1 to 3 orders maximum (3 shorts at top, 3 longs at bottom). For instance you buy at level 2 below moving average and you increase position size when level 6 is reached (a cheaper price) in order to spread risks.
By default the strategy exits all trades when the moving average is reached, this makes it a mean reversion strategy. It is specifically designed for the forex market as these in my experience exhibit a lot of ranging behaviour on all the timeframes below daily.
There is also a stop loss at the outer band by default, in case price moves too far from the mean.
What are the risks?
In case price decides to stay below the moving average and never reaches the outer band one trade can create a very substantial loss, as the bands will keep following price and are not at a fixed level.
Explanation of default parameters
By default the strategy uses a starting capital of 25000$, this is realistic for retail traders.
Lot sizes at each level are set to minimum lot size 0.01, there is no reason for the default to be risky, if you want to risk more or increase equity curve increase the number at your own risk.
Slippage set to 20 points: that's a normal 2 pip slippage you will find on brokers.
Fill limit assumtion 20 points: so it takes 2 pips to confirm a fill, normal forex spread.
Commission is set to 0.00005 per contract: this means that for each contract traded there is a 5$ or whatever base currency pair has as commission. The number is set to 0.00005 because pinescript does not know that 1 contract is 100000 units. So we divide the number by 100000 to get a realistic commission.
The script will also multiply lot size by 100000 because pinescript does not know that lots are 100000 units in forex.
Extra safety limit
Normally the script uses strategy.exit() to exit trades at TP or SL. But because these are created 1 bar after a limit or stop order is filled in pinescript. There are strategy.orders set at the outer boundaries of the script to hedge against that risk. These get deleted bar after the first order is filled. Purely to counteract news bars or huge spikes in price messing up backtest.
🟦 VISUAL GOODIES
I've added a market profile feature to the edge of the grid. This so you can see in which grid zone market has been the most over X bars in the past. Some traders may wish to only turn on the strategy whenever the market profile displays specific characteristics (ranging market for instance).
These simply count how many times a high, low, or close price has been in each zone for X bars in the past. it's these purple boxes at the right side of the chart.
🟦 Script can be fully automated to MT5
There are risk settings in lot sizes or % for alerts and symbol settings provided at the bottom of the indicator. The script will send alert to MT5 broker trying to mimic the execution that happens on tradingview. There are always delays when using a bridge to MT5 broker and there could be errors so be mindful of that. This script sends alerts in format so they can be read by tradingview.to which is a bridge between the platforms.
Use the all alert function calls feature when setting up alerts and make sure you provide the right webhook if you want to use this approach.
Almost every setting in this indicator has a tooltip added to it. So if any setting is not clear hover over the (?) icon on the right of the setting.
BarRange StrategyHello,
This is a long-only, volatility-based strategy that analyzes the range of the previous bar (high - low).
If the most recent bar’s range exceeds a threshold based on the last X bars, a trade is initiated.
You can customize the lookback period, threshold value, and exit type.
For exits, you can choose to exit after X bars or when the close price exceeds the previous bar’s high.
The strategy is designed for instruments with a long-term upward-sloping curves, such as ES1! or NQ1!. It may not perform well on other instruments.
Commissions are set to $2.50 per side ($5.00 per round trip).
Recommended timeframes are 1h and higher. With adjustments to the lookback period and threshold, it could potentially achieve similar results on lower timeframes as well.
Bollinger Bands + RSI StrategyThe Bollinger Bands + RSI strategy combines volatility and momentum indicators to spot trading opportunities in intraday settings. Here’s a concise summary:
Components:
Bollinger Bands: Measures market volatility. The lower band signals potential buying opportunities when the price is considered oversold.
Relative Strength Index (RSI): Evaluates momentum to identify overbought or oversold conditions. An RSI below 30 indicates oversold, suggesting a buy, and above 70 indicates overbought, suggesting a sell.
Strategy Execution:
Buy Signal : Triggered when the price falls below the lower Bollinger Band while the RSI is also below 30.
Sell Signal : Activated when the price exceeds the upper Bollinger Band with an RSI above 70.
Exit Strategy : Exiting a buy position is considered when the RSI crosses back above 50, capturing potential rebounds.
Advantages:
Combines price levels with momentum for more reliable signals.
Clearly defined entry and exit points help minimize emotional trading.
Considerations:
Can produce false signals in very volatile or strongly trending markets.
Best used in markets without a strong prevailing trend.
This strategy aids traders in making decisions based on technical indicators, enhancing their ability to profit from short-term price movements.
Pavan CPR Strategy Pavan CPR Strategy (Pine Script)
The Pavan CPR Strategy is a trading system based on the Central Pivot Range (CPR), designed to identify price breakouts and generate long trade signals. This strategy uses key CPR levels (Pivot, Top CPR, and Bottom CPR) calculated from the daily high, low, and close to inform trade decisions. Here's an overview of how the strategy works:
Key Components:
CPR Calculation:
The strategy calculates three critical CPR levels for each trading day:
Pivot (P): The central value, calculated as the average of the high, low, and close prices.
Top Central Pivot (TC): The midpoint of the daily high and low, acting as the resistance level.
Bottom Central Pivot (BC): Derived from the pivot and the top CPR, providing a support level.
The script uses request.security to fetch these CPR values from the daily timeframe, even when applied on intraday charts.
Trade Entry Condition:
A long position is initiated when:
The current price crosses above the Top CPR level (TC).
The previous close was below the Top CPR level, signaling a breakout above a key resistance level.
This condition aims to capture upward momentum as the price breaks above a significant level.
Exit Strategy:
Take Profit: The position is closed with a profit target set 50 points above the entry price.
Stop Loss: A stop loss is placed at the Pivot level to protect against unfavorable price movements.
Visual Reference:
The script plots the three CPR levels on the chart:
Pivot: Blue line.
Top CPR (TC): Green line.
Bottom CPR (BC): Red line.
These plotted levels provide visual guidance for identifying potential support and resistance zones.
Use Case:
The Pavan CPR Strategy is ideal for intraday traders who want to capitalize on price movements and breakouts above critical CPR levels. It provides clear entry and exit signals based on price action and is best used in conjunction with proper risk management.
Note: The strategy is written in Pine Script v5 for use on TradingView, and it is recommended to backtest and optimize it for the asset or market you are trading.
Zig Zag + Aroon StrategyBelow is a trading strategy that combines the Zig Zag indicator and the Aroon indicator. This combination can help identify trends and potential reversal points.
Zig Zag and Aroon Strategy Overview
Zig Zag Indicator:
The Zig Zag indicator helps to identify significant price movements and eliminates smaller fluctuations. It is useful for spotting trends and reversals.
Aroon Indicator:
The Aroon indicator consists of two lines: Aroon Up and Aroon Down. It measures the time since the highest high and the lowest low over a specified period, indicating the strength of a trend.
Strategy Conditions
Long Entry Conditions:
Aroon Up crosses above Aroon Down (indicating a bullish trend).
The Zig Zag indicator shows an upward movement (indicating a potential continuation).
Short Entry Conditions:
Aroon Down crosses above Aroon Up (indicating a bearish trend).
The Zig Zag indicator shows a downward movement (indicating a potential continuation).
Exit Conditions:
Exit long when Aroon Down crosses above Aroon Up.
Exit short when Aroon Up crosses above Aroon Down.
Ichimoku + RSI + MACD Strategy1. Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Overview:
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It ranges from 0 to 100 and is typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in a market.
How to Use with Ichimoku:
Long Entry: Look for RSI to be above 30 (indicating it is not oversold) when the price is above the Ichimoku Cloud.
Short Entry: Look for RSI to be below 70 (indicating it is not overbought) when the price is below the Ichimoku Cloud.
2. Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD)
Overview:
The MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price. It consists of the MACD line, signal line, and histogram.
How to Use with Ichimoku:
Long Entry: Enter a long position when the MACD line crosses above the signal line while the price is above the Ichimoku Cloud.
Short Entry: Enter a short position when the MACD line crosses below the signal line while the price is below the Ichimoku Cloud.
Combined Strategy Example
Here’s a brief outline of how to structure a trading strategy using Ichimoku, RSI, and MACD:
Long Entry Conditions:
Price is above the Ichimoku Cloud.
RSI is above 30.
MACD line crosses above the signal line.
Short Entry Conditions:
Price is below the Ichimoku Cloud.
RSI is below 70.
MACD line crosses below the signal line.
Exit Conditions:
Exit long when MACD line crosses below the signal line.
Exit short when MACD line crosses above the signal line.
SMC StrategyThis Pine Script strategy is based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC), designed for TradingView. Here's a brief summary of what the script does:
1. Swing High and Low Calculation: It identifies recent swing highs and lows, which are used to define key zones.
2. Equilibrium, Premium, and Discount Zones:
- Equilibrium is the midpoint between the swing high and low.
- Premium Zone is above the equilibrium, indicating a potential resistance area (sell zone).
- Discount Zone is below the equilibrium, indicating a potential support area (buy zone).
3. Simple Moving Average (SMA): It uses a 50-period SMA to determine the trend direction. If the price is above the SMA, the trend is bullish; if it's below, the trend is bearish.
4. Buy and Sell Signals:
- Buy Signal: Generated when the price is in the discount zone and above the equilibrium, with the price also above the SMA.
- Sell Signal: Triggered when the price is in the premium zone and below the equilibrium, with the price also below the SMA.
5. Order Blocks: It detects basic order blocks by identifying the highest high and lowest low within the last 20 bars. These levels help confirm the buy and sell signals.
6. Liquidity Zones: It marks the swing high and low as potential liquidity zones, indicating where price may reverse due to institutional players' activity.
The strategy then executes trades based on these signals, plotting buy and sell markers on the chart and showing the key levels (zones) and trend direction.

CCI Threshold StrategyThe CCI Threshold Strategy is a trading approach that utilizes the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) as a momentum indicator to identify potential buy and sell signals in financial markets. The CCI is particularly effective in detecting overbought and oversold conditions, providing traders with insights into possible price reversals. This strategy is designed for use in various financial instruments, including stocks, commodities, and forex, and aims to capitalize on price movements driven by market sentiment.
Commodity Channel Index (CCI)
The CCI was developed by Donald Lambert in the 1980s and is primarily used to measure the deviation of a security's price from its average price over a specified period.
The formula for CCI is as follows:
CCI=(TypicalPrice−SMA)×0.015MeanDeviation
CCI=MeanDeviation(TypicalPrice−SMA)×0.015
where:
Typical Price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
SMA = Simple Moving Average of the Typical Price
Mean Deviation = Average of the absolute deviations from the SMA
The CCI oscillates around a zero line, with values above +100 indicating overbought conditions and values below -100 indicating oversold conditions (Lambert, 1980).
Strategy Logic
The CCI Threshold Strategy operates on the following principles:
Input Parameters:
Lookback Period: The number of periods used to calculate the CCI. A common choice is 9, as it balances responsiveness and noise.
Buy Threshold: Typically set at -90, indicating a potential oversold condition where a price reversal is likely.
Stop Loss and Take Profit: The strategy allows for risk management through customizable stop loss and take profit points.
Entry Conditions:
A long position is initiated when the CCI falls below the buy threshold of -90, indicating potential oversold levels. This condition suggests that the asset may be undervalued and due for a price increase.
Exit Conditions:
The long position is closed when the closing price exceeds the highest price of the previous day, indicating a bullish reversal. Additionally, if the stop loss or take profit thresholds are hit, the position will be exited accordingly.
Risk Management:
The strategy incorporates optional stop loss and take profit mechanisms, which can be toggled on or off based on trader preference. This allows for flexibility in risk management, aligning with individual risk tolerances and trading styles.
Benefits of the CCI Threshold Strategy
Flexibility: The CCI Threshold Strategy can be applied across different asset classes, making it versatile for various market conditions.
Objective Signals: The use of quantitative thresholds for entry and exit reduces emotional bias in trading decisions (Tversky & Kahneman, 1974).
Enhanced Risk Management: By allowing traders to set stop loss and take profit levels, the strategy aids in preserving capital and managing risk effectively.
Limitations
Market Noise: The CCI can produce false signals, especially in highly volatile markets, leading to potential losses (Bollinger, 2001).
Lagging Indicator: As a lagging indicator, the CCI may not always capture rapid market movements, resulting in missed opportunities (Pring, 2002).
Conclusion
The CCI Threshold Strategy offers a systematic approach to trading based on well-established momentum principles. By focusing on overbought and oversold conditions, traders can make informed decisions while managing risk effectively. As with any trading strategy, it is crucial to backtest the approach and adapt it to individual trading styles and market conditions.

Dynamic RSI Mean Reversion StrategyDynamic RSI Mean Reversion Strategy
Overview:
This strategy uses an RSI with ATR-Adjusted OB/OS levels in order to enhance the quality of it's mean reversion trades. It also incorporates a form of trend filtering in an effort to minimize downside and maximize upside. The backtest has fewer trades, as it uses substantial filtering to enhance trade quality. As you can see, I didn't cherry pick the results, so the results aren't the most beautiful thing you'll see in your life. I did this to ensure nobody gets misled. If you need a higher frequency of trades, consider removing the trend filter or increasing the length of the EMAs used for trend detection.
Features:
Dynamic OB/OS Levels: Uses ATR to adjust overbought and oversold thresholds dynamically, making the RSI more responsive in varying volatility conditions. This approach enhances signal strength by expanding the RSI range in high volatility and tightening it in low volatility.
Mean Reversion Focus: Designed for mean reversion but incorporates a trend-following filter to reduce countertrend trades. When the RSI is high, it often indicates an uptrend, so a trend filter prevents shorting in these cases and the same goes for downtrends and longing.
Trend Filtering: A moving average cross trend filter checks for the trend direction, with the RSI signal line color-coded to reflect trend shifts. Entries occur when the RSI crosses above or below the dynamic thresholds and is not a countertrend trade.
Stop Losses: Stop losses are set based on ATR distance from the entry price, providing volatility-adjusted protection.
Note:
If you're using this strategy on assets with a higher price, remember to increase the initial capital in the strategy settings. Otherwise, the strategy won't generate any (or many) trades and you'll end up with some inaccurate results.
Recommended Use:
Test it on different assets and timeframes. I’ve found the best results with standard RSI inputs, a relatively slow ATR, and a slower MA cross for trend filtering. Thus, the defaults are set that way. If the trend metrics are too slow, you’ll filter out too many good trades while allowing crummy ones; if too fast, most trades may be filtered out. As always, this has a lot of configurability so experiment to find the balance that works for your trading style.
VWAP Stdev Bands Strategy (Long Only)The VWAP Stdev Bands Strategy (Long Only) is designed to identify potential long entry points in trending markets by utilizing the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and standard deviation bands. This strategy focuses on capturing upward price movements, leveraging statistical measures to determine optimal buy conditions.
Key Features:
VWAP Calculation: The strategy calculates the VWAP, which represents the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, weighted by volume. This is an essential indicator for determining the overall market trend.
Standard Deviation Bands: Two bands are created above and below the VWAP, calculated using specified standard deviations. These bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, providing insight into price volatility and potential reversal points.
Trading Logic:
Long Entry Condition: A long position is triggered when the price crosses below the lower standard deviation band and then closes above it, signaling a potential price reversal to the upside.
Profit Target: The strategy allows users to set a predefined profit target, closing the long position once the specified target is reached.
Time Gap Between Orders: A customizable time gap can be specified to prevent multiple orders from being placed in quick succession, allowing for a more controlled trading approach.
Visualization: The VWAP and standard deviation bands are plotted on the chart with distinct colors, enabling traders to visually assess market conditions. The strategy also provides optional plotting of the previous day's VWAP for added context.
Use Cases:
Ideal for traders looking to engage in long-only positions within trending markets.
Suitable for intraday trading strategies or longer-term approaches based on market volatility.
Customization Options:
Users can adjust the standard deviation values, profit target, and time gap to tailor the strategy to their specific trading style and market conditions.
Note: As with any trading strategy, it is important to conduct thorough backtesting and analysis before live trading. Market conditions can change, and past performance does not guarantee future results.
Demo GPT - Day Trading Scalping StrategyOverview:

It focuses on capturing short-term price movements while ensuring that trades are executed under specific market conditions.
Key Components:
Technical Indicators Used:
Exponential Moving Average (EMA): The strategy uses the 20-period EMA to identify the trend direction. The EMA smooths out price data, helping traders make more informed decisions about potential buy or sell signals.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP): VWAP is used to measure the average price a security has traded at throughout the day, based on both volume and price. This indicator helps assess whether the current price is above or below the average trading price.
Camarilla Pivot Points: The strategy calculates four levels of Camarilla pivots (S2, S3, R2, R3) based on the highest and lowest prices over the last 14 daily candles. These levels act as potential support and resistance zones, guiding entry and exit decisions.
Candlestick Analysis:
Buy Condition: A buy signal is triggered when:
The first candle (previous candle) is green (close > open).
The second candle (current candle) is also green and opens above the first candle.
The volume of the current candle exceeds the 20-period moving average of volume, indicating strong buying interest.
Sell Condition: A sell signal is triggered when:
The first candle is red (close < open).
The second candle opens below the first red candle.
The volume of the current candle also exceeds the 20-period moving average of volume, indicating strong selling pressure.
Position Management:
The strategy enters a long position (buy) when the buy condition is met and closes the long position when the sell condition is met. This approach aims to capture upward momentum while avoiding extended exposure to downside risks.
Trading Settings:
Capital Management: The strategy uses 100% of available capital for each trade, allowing for maximum exposure to potential gains.
Commission and Slippage: The script includes settings for a commission rate of 0.1% and slippage of 3, accounting for trading costs and potential price changes during order execution.

Dual Momentum StrategyThis Pine Script™ strategy implements the "Dual Momentum" approach developed by Gary Antonacci, as presented in his book Dual Momentum Investing: An Innovative Strategy for Higher Returns with Lower Risk (McGraw Hill Professional, 2014). Dual momentum investing combines relative momentum and absolute momentum to maximize returns while minimizing risk. Relative momentum involves selecting the asset with the highest recent performance between two options (a risky asset and a safe asset), while absolute momentum considers whether the chosen asset has a positive return over a specified lookback period.
In this strategy:
Risky Asset (SPY): Represents a stock index fund, typically more volatile but with higher potential returns.
Safe Asset (TLT): Represents a bond index fund, which generally has lower volatility and acts as a hedge during market downturns.
Monthly Momentum Calculation: The momentum for each asset is calculated based on its price change over the last 12 months. Only assets with a positive momentum (absolute momentum) are considered for investment.
Decision Rules:
Invest in the risky asset if its momentum is positive and greater than that of the safe asset.
If the risky asset’s momentum is negative or lower than the safe asset's, the strategy shifts the allocation to the safe asset.
Scientific Reference
Antonacci's work on dual momentum investing has shown the strategy's ability to outperform traditional buy-and-hold methods while reducing downside risk. This approach has been reviewed and discussed in both academic and investment publications, highlighting its strong risk-adjusted returns (Antonacci, 2014).

Fibonacci ATR Fusion - Strategy [presentTrading]Open-script again! This time is also an ATR-related strategy. Enjoy! :)
If you have any questions, let me know, and I'll help make this as effective as possible.
█ Introduction and How It Is Different
The Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy is an advanced trading approach that uniquely integrates Fibonacci-based weighted averages with the Average True Range (ATR) to identify and capitalize on significant market trends.
Unlike traditional strategies that rely on single indicators or static parameters, this method combines multiple timeframes and dynamic volatility measurements to enhance precision and adaptability. Additionally, it features a 4-step Take Profit (TP) mechanism, allowing for systematic profit-taking at various levels, which optimizes both risk management and return potential in long and short market positions.
BTCUSD 6hr Performance
█ Strategy, How It Works: Detailed Explanation
The Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy utilizes a combination of technical indicators and weighted averages to determine optimal entry and exit points. Below is a breakdown of its key components and operational logic.
🔶 1. Enhanced True Range Calculation
The strategy begins by calculating the True Range (TR) to measure market volatility accurately.
TR = max(High - Low, abs(High - Previous Close), abs(Low - Previous Close))
High and Low: Highest and lowest prices of the current trading period.
Previous Close: Closing price of the preceding trading period.
max: Selects the largest value among the three calculations to account for gaps and limit movements.
🔶 2. Buying Pressure (BP) Calculation
Buying Pressure (BP) quantifies the extent to which buyers are driving the price upwards within a period.
BP = Close - True Low
Close: Current period's closing price.
True Low: The lower boundary determined in the True Range calculation.
🔶 3. Ratio Calculation for Different Periods
To assess the strength of buying pressure relative to volatility, the strategy calculates a ratio over various Fibonacci-based timeframes.
Ratio = 100 * (Sum of BP over n periods) / (Sum of TR over n periods)
n: Length of the period (e.g., 8, 13, 21, 34, 55).
Sum of BP: Cumulative Buying Pressure over n periods.
Sum of TR: Cumulative True Range over n periods.
This ratio normalizes buying pressure, making it comparable across different timeframes.
🔶 4. Weighted Average Calculation
The strategy employs a weighted average of ratios from multiple Fibonacci-based periods to smooth out signals and enhance trend detection.
Weighted Avg = (w1 * Ratio_p1 + w2 * Ratio_p2 + w3 * Ratio_p3 + w4 * Ratio_p4 + Ratio_p5) / (w1 + w2 + w3 + w4 + 1)
w1, w2, w3, w4: Weights assigned to each ratio period.
Ratio_p1 to Ratio_p5: Ratios calculated for periods p1 to p5 (e.g., 8, 13, 21, 34, 55).
This weighted approach emphasizes shorter periods more heavily, capturing recent market dynamics while still considering longer-term trends.
🔶 5. Simple Moving Average (SMA) of Weighted Average
To further smooth the weighted average and reduce noise, a Simple Moving Average (SMA) is applied.
Weighted Avg SMA = SMA(Weighted Avg, m)
- m: SMA period (e.g., 3).
This smoothed line serves as the primary signal generator for trade entries and exits.
🔶 6. Trading Condition Thresholds
The strategy defines specific threshold values to determine optimal entry and exit points based on crossovers and crossunders of the SMA.
Long Condition = Crossover(Weighted Avg SMA, Long Entry Threshold)
Short Condition = Crossunder(Weighted Avg SMA, Short Entry Threshold)
Long Exit = Crossunder(Weighted Avg SMA, Long Exit Threshold)
Short Exit = Crossover(Weighted Avg SMA, Short Exit Threshold)
Long Entry Threshold (T_LE): Level at which a long position is triggered.
Short Entry Threshold (T_SE): Level at which a short position is triggered.
Long Exit Threshold (T_LX): Level at which a long position is exited.
Short Exit Threshold (T_SX): Level at which a short position is exited.
These conditions ensure that trades are only executed when clear trends are identified, enhancing the strategy's reliability.
Previous local performance
🔶 7. ATR-Based Take Profit Mechanism
When enabled, the strategy employs a 4-step Take Profit system to systematically secure profits as the trade moves in the desired direction.
TP Price_1 Long = Entry Price + (TP1ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_2 Long = Entry Price + (TP2ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_3 Long = Entry Price + (TP3ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_1 Short = Entry Price - (TP1ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_2 Short = Entry Price - (TP2ATR * ATR Value)
TP Price_3 Short = Entry Price - (TP3ATR * ATR Value)
- ATR Value: Calculated using ATR over a specified period (e.g., 14).
- TPxATR: User-defined multipliers for each take profit level.
- TPx_percent: Percentage of the position to exit at each TP level.
This multi-tiered exit strategy allows for partial position closures, optimizing profit capture while maintaining exposure to potential further gains.
█ Trade Direction
The Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy is designed to operate in both long and short market conditions, providing flexibility to traders in varying market environments.
Long Trades: Initiated when the SMA of the weighted average crosses above the Long Entry Threshold (T_LE), indicating strong upward momentum.
Short Trades: Initiated when the SMA of the weighted average crosses below the Short Entry Threshold (T_SE), signaling robust downward momentum.
Additionally, the strategy can be configured to trade exclusively in one direction—Long, Short, or Both—based on the trader’s preference and market analysis.
█ Usage
Implementing the Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy involves several steps to ensure it aligns with your trading objectives and market conditions.
1. Configure Strategy Parameters:
- Trading Direction: Choose between Long, Short, or Both based on your market outlook.
- Trading Condition Thresholds: Set the Long Entry, Short Entry, Long Exit, and Short Exit thresholds to define when to enter and exit trades.
2. Set Take Profit Levels (if enabled):
- ATR Multipliers: Define how many ATRs away from the entry price each take profit level is set.
- Take Profit Percentages: Allocate what percentage of the position to close at each TP level.
3. Apply to Desired Chart:
- Add the strategy to the chart of the asset you wish to trade.
- Observe the plotted Fibonacci ATR and SMA Fibonacci ATR indicators for visual confirmation.
4. Monitor and Adjust:
- Regularly review the strategy’s performance through backtesting.
- Adjust the input parameters based on historical performance and changing market dynamics.
5. Risk Management:
- Ensure that the sum of take profit percentages does not exceed 100% to avoid over-closing positions.
- Utilize the ATR-based TP levels to adapt to varying market volatilities, maintaining a balanced risk-reward ratio.
█ Default Settings
Understanding the default settings is crucial for optimizing the Fibonacci ATR Fusion Strategy's performance. Here's a precise and simple overview of the key parameters and their effects:
🔶 Key Parameters and Their Effects
1. Trading Direction (`tradingDirection`)
- Default: Both
- Effect: Determines whether the strategy takes both long and short positions or restricts to one direction. Selecting Both allows maximum flexibility, while Long or Short can be used for directional bias.
2. Trading Condition Thresholds
Long Entry (long_entry_threshold = 58.0): Higher values reduce false positives but may miss trades.
Short Entry (short_entry_threshold = 42.0): Lower values capture early short trends but may increase false signals.
Long Exit (long_exit_threshold = 42.0): Exits long positions early, securing profits but potentially cutting trends short.
Short Exit (short_exit_threshold = 58.0): Delays short exits to capture favorable movements, avoiding premature exits.
3. Take Profit Configuration (`useTakeProfit` = false)
- Effect: When enabled, the strategy employs a 4-step TP mechanism to secure profits at multiple levels. By default, it is disabled to allow users to opt-in based on their trading style.
4. ATR-Based Take Profit Multipliers
TP1 (tp1ATR = 3.0): Sets the first TP at 3 ATRs for initial profit capture.
TP2 (tp2ATR = 8.0): Targets larger trends, though less likely to be reached.
TP3 (tp3ATR = 14.0): Optimizes for extreme price moves, seldom triggered.
5. Take Profit Percentages
TP Level 1 (tp1_percent = 12%): Secures 12% at the first TP.
TP Level 2 (tp2_percent = 12%): Exits another 12% at the second TP.
TP Level 3 (tp3_percent = 12%): Closes an additional 12% at the third TP.
6. Weighted Average Parameters
Ratio Periods: Fibonacci-based intervals (8, 13, 21, 34, 55) balance responsiveness.
Weights: Emphasizes recent data for timely responses to market trends.
SMA Period (weighted_avg_sma_period = 3): Smoothens data with minimal lag, balancing noise reduction and responsiveness.
7. ATR Period (`atrPeriod` = 14)
Effect: Sets the ATR calculation length, impacting TP sensitivity to volatility.
🔶 Impact on Performance
- Sensitivity and Responsiveness:
- Shorter Ratio Periods and Higher Weights: Make the weighted average more responsive to recent price changes, allowing quicker trade entries and exits but increasing the likelihood of false signals.
- Longer Ratio Periods and Lower Weights: Provide smoother signals with fewer false positives but may delay trade entries, potentially missing out on significant price moves.
- Profit Taking:
- ATR Multipliers: Higher multipliers set take profit levels further away, targeting larger price movements but reducing the probability of reaching these levels.
- Fixed Percentages: Allocating equal percentages at each TP level ensures consistent profit realization and risk management, preventing overexposure.
- Trade Direction Control:
- Selecting Specific Directions: Restricting trades to Long or Short can align the strategy with market trends or personal biases, potentially enhancing performance in trending markets.
- Risk Management:
- Take Profit Percentages: Dividing the position into smaller percentages at multiple TP levels helps lock in profits progressively, reducing risk and allowing the remaining position to ride further trends.
- Market Adaptability:
- Weighted Averages and ATR: By combining multiple timeframes and adjusting to volatility, the strategy adapts to different market conditions, maintaining effectiveness across various asset classes and timeframes.

US 30 Daily Breakout Strategy The US 30 Daily Breakout Strategy (Single Trade Per Breakout/Breakdown) is a trading approach for the US 30 (Dow Jones Industrial Average) that aims to capture breakout or breakdown moves based on the previous day’s high and low levels. The strategy includes mechanisms to take only one trade per breakout (or breakdown) each day and ensures that each trade is executed only when no other trade is open.
Entry Conditions:
Long Trade (Breakout): The strategy initiates a long position if the current candle closes above the previous day's high, indicating an upward breakout. Only one breakout trade can occur per day, regardless of whether the price remains above the previous high.
Short Trade (Breakdown): The strategy initiates a short position if the current candle closes below the previous day's low, indicating a downward breakdown. Similarly, only one breakdown trade can occur per day.
Risk Management:
Take Profit and Stop Loss: Each trade has a take profit and stop loss of 50 points, aiming to cap profit and limit loss effectively for each position.
Daily Reset Mechanism:
At the start of each new day (based on New York time), the strategy resets its flags, allowing it to look for new breakout or breakdown trades. This reset ensures that only one trade can be taken per breakout or breakdown level each day.
Execution Logic
Flags for Trade Limitation: Flags (breakout_traded and breakdown_traded) are used to ensure only one breakout or breakdown trade is taken per day. These flags reset daily.
Dynamic Plotting: The previous day’s high and low are plotted on the chart, providing a visual reference for potential breakout or breakdown levels.
Overall Objective
This strategy is designed to capture single-directional daily moves by identifying significant breakouts or breakdowns beyond the previous day’s range. The fixed profit and loss limits ensure the trades are managed with controlled risk, while the daily reset feature prevents overtrading and limits each trade opportunity to one breakout and one breakdown attempt per day.
