MA, MATR, ChEx | All in One - 4CR CUPIn trade position setup, we always need to determine the market structure and manage the position sizing in a short period of decision time. Indicators such as moving average, initial stop loss and trailing stop loss are always helpful.
This indicator put all these handy tools into a single toolkit, which includes the following price action and risk management indicators:
MA - Moving Average
MATR - Moving Average less Average True Range
ChEx - Chandelier Exit
This script further enhances the setting so that you can easily customize the indicators.
For both the Moving Averages and the Moving Average less Average True Range , you can pick a type of moving average which suits your analysis style from a list of commonly used moving average formulations: namely, EMA , HMA , RMA, SMA and WMA , where EMA is selected as default.
The Moving Average less Average True Range , MATR, is usually applied as a reference to set the initial stop loss whenever opening a new position.
The abbreviation, MATR, is picked, so that this can serve as a handy reminder of a very good trading framework as elaborates as below:
M – Market Structure
A – Area of Value
T – Trigger
R – Risk Management (aka. Exit Strategy)
Stoploss
ATR Stop PriceSet stop price and add-position price according to the cost and current ATR.
You may set an alert with the condition when the stock price crossing down the Stop Price.
Example:
stock price: $150
volatility multiple: 2
current ATR: $3
stop price = $150 - $3 * 2 = $144
add-position price = $150 + $3 * 2 / 2 = $153
Indicator - ATR Profit Loss - DGHi Traders,
This is an on chart indicator that can be used for setting take profit and stop losses very easily using the Average True Range Indicator (ATR). Using a volatility adjusted TP and SL will allow you to set your targets and losses based on market conditions. In the settings, you are able to adjust how much of a multiplier you require depending on your risk tolerance and strategy. For those that follow the NNFX method, the defult settings are preset to 1xATR TP and 1.5xATR SL.
How to use:
- For longs, 'isLong' box must be ticked, for shorts, this box is unticked
- For longs, green line is TP, red line is SL
- For shorts, red line is TP, green line is SL

Pyramiding Entries On Early Trends (by Coinrule)Pyramiding the entries in a trading strategy may be risky but at the same time very profitable with a proper risk management approach. This strategy seeks to spot early signs of uptrends and increase the position's size while the right conditions persist.
Each trade comes with its stop-loss and take-profit to enforce a proportional risk/reward profile.
The strategy uses a mix of Moving Average based setups to define the buy-signal.
The Moving Average (200) is above the Moving Average (100), which prevents from buying when the uptrend is already in its late stages
The Moving Average (9) is above the Moving Average (100), indicating that the coin is not in a downtrend.
The price crossing above the Moving Average (9) confirms the potential upside used to fire the buy order.
Each entry comes with a stop-loss and a take-profit in a ratio of 1-to-1. After over 400 backtests, we opted for a 3% TP and 3% SL, which provides the best results.
The strategy is optimized on a 1-hour time frame.
The Advantages of this strategy are:
It offers the possibility of adjusting the size of the position proportionally to the confidence in the possibilities that an uptrend will eventually form.
Low drawdowns. On average, the percentage of trades in profit is above 60%, and the stop-loss equal to the take-profit reduces the overall risk.
This strategy returned good returns both with trading pairs with Fiat/stable coins and with BTC. Considering the mixed trends that cryptocurrencies experienced during 2020 vs BTC, this strengthens the strategy's reliability.
The strategy assumes each order to trade 20% of the available capital and pyramids the entries up to 7 times.
A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange.
SMA + Trend Strength + Trailing Stop LossThe 'SMA + Trend Strength + Trailing Stop Loss' indicator was designed for swing trading long positions over the course of days/weeks. The benefit of the indicator is to identify areas where the market of a given asset is showing signs of a strong uptrend, divergences, and fear. A 13-bar simple moving average is color coded to four colors based on 5 given conditions at a time, which are represented as a trend meter on the bottom right of the screen. A trailing stop loss indicator is included to secure your profits or limit your loss in case the market reverses on you unexpected. Please use this indicator responsibly with proper risk management, and never rely on the indicator by itself for buy and sell signals.
When the simple moving average color is green, it means that at least 4 of 5 conditions are confirming a move upwards, this is when you can take an entry into a trade based on your entry strategy. As the trend continues, the color will eventually change to yellow signaling a divergence. This is when you can use your exit strategy to find a good point to sell. It is wise not to take new positions when the color is trending yellow.
If the color changes from yellow to orange, that is a warning sign that the trend is about to change or has begun to change. Prices may have already fallen. However, sometimes the color will change from yellow back to green signaling a continuation of the trend. You can either keep holding or take a new position in this instance.
When the color is red, this signals fear in the market, you should stay out of the market at first. However, as the market consolidates and the color starts changing back to orange, this is an opportunity to take a long position at a reasonably low price.
Simple Moving Average (13-Bar) Color Explanation:
The colors change based on 5 market conditions represented in the trend meter.
Green: Strong Uptrend
Yellow: Divergence Present
Orange: Warning
Red: Fear
Trend Meter Explanation:
The trend meter draws 5 arrows indicating bullish or bearish presence.
LL = Lower Lows - Detects when the market is trending with lower lows.
HH = Higher Highs - Detects when the market is trending with higher highs.
MA = SMA Direction - A formula is used to determine the direction of the SMA.
DI = Directional Index - Identifies when upwards momentum is trending.
RSI = Relative Strength Index - Identifies when the RSI is in an uptrend state.
Note: For advanced users, this indicator has a hidden DMI(4, 4, 4) and RSI(14) indicator used to determine the last two conditions. The Directional Index is based on a DI Plus momentum moving average to determine a momentum trend and the RSI trending over 50 will constitute an uptrend signal as below 50 it will point down.
Trailing stop loss:
The trailing stop loss is determined based on the lowest price of the last 8 bars.
A gray step-line is drawn at the suggested stop activation price.
A red step-line is drawn at the suggested stop limit price.
When the price breaches the trailing stop, a red X will appear below the bar.
You can turn each of these features on or off based on your preference. Happy trading!
Percent Drop from Highest HighBuy and hold investors may decide to use trailing stops to protect profits and capital from market crashes, especially during bull markets.
The purpose of this indicator is to hep investors to identify a location to place them. The indicator plots the highest high from 'x' bars ago. It then plots a trailing stop loss 'y' percent below that line.
The indicator enables its users to input different 'x' and 'y' values to observe what they think works best for them in different markets.
Users might choose to pair the indicator with trend confirming indicators, such as moving average cross overs, to determine that the market is trending and not ranging.
There is no magic in this indicator, only maths. Like every indicator, it has no ability to predict anything. Just because the market is doing one thing now, it might do something different later. The past does not equal the present nor the future. Make your own decisions and be responsible for them.
All the best to you and your family.
Chandelier Exit | SAR/Long Only (4CUP)As introduced by StockCharts.com, Chandelier Exit was developed by Charles Le Beau and featured in Alexander Elder's books, this sets a trailing stop-loss based on the Average True Range (ATR).
Chandelier Exit can be formulated as a stop-and-reverse (SAR) or as a traditional trailing stop-loss version shown by Stockcharts.com.
The main difference is that, in SAR version, the indicator is usually formulated in a higher of previous or spot indicator (HPS) for long and lower of previous and spot indicator (LPS) for short position.
This indicator is coded to show both the SAR version and the traditional one shown by Stockcharts.com (for long position) by simply clicking a tick in the Version box.
The ATR multiplier is relaxed to allow non-integer input, like 3.5, 4.25, ... for a greater flexibility to tailor your best-fit exit strategy.

Tilson T3 and MavilimW Triple Combined StrategyInspired by truly greatful Kivanç Ozbilgic (www.tradingview.com).
The strategy tries to combined three different moving average strategies into one.
Strategies covered are:
1. Tillson T3 Moving Average Strategy
Developed by Tim Tillson, the T3 Moving Average is considered superior to traditional moving averages as it is smoother, more responsive and thus performs better in ranging market conditions as well. However, it bears the disadvantage of overshooting the price as it attempts to realign itself to current market conditions.
It incorporates a smoothing technique which allows it to plot curves more gradual than ordinary moving averages and with a smaller lag. Its smoothness is derived from the fact that it is a weighted sum of a single EMA, double EMA, triple EMA and so on. When a trend is formed, the price action will stay above or below the trend during most of its progression and will hardly be touched by any swings. Thus, a confirmed penetration of the T3 MA and the lack of a following reversal often indicates the end of a trend. Here is what the calculation looks like:
T3 = c1*e6 + c2*e5 + c3*e4 + c4*e3, where:
– e1 = EMA (Close, Period)
– e2 = EMA (e1, Period)
– e3 = EMA (e2, Period)
– e4 = EMA (e3, Period)
– e5 = EMA (e4, Period)
– e6 = EMA (e5, Period)
– a is the volume factor, default value is 0.7 but 0.618 can also be used
– c1 = – a^3
– c2 = 3*a^2 + 3*a^3
– c3 = – 6*a^2 – 3*a – 3*a^3
– c4 = 1 + 3*a + a^3 + 3*a^2
T3 MovingThe T3 Moving Average generally produces entry signals similar to other moving averages and thus is traded largely in the same manner.
Strategy for Tillson T3 is if the close crossovers T3 line and for at least five bars the close was under the T3
2. Tillson T3 Fibonacci Cross
Kivanc Ozbilgic added a second T3 line with a volume factor of 0.618 (Fibonacci Ratio) and length of 3 (fibonacci number) which can be added by selecting the T3 Fibonacci Strategy input box.
Strategy for Tillson T3 Fibo is when the Fibo Line crossover the T3 it gives long signal vice versa.
3. MavilimW
MavilimW is originally a support and resistance indicator based on fibonacci injected weighted moving averages.
Strategy for MavilimW is is if the close crossovers T3 line and for at least five bars the close was under the T3
Hope you enjoy
Stop Loss PanelHere is a label panel that shows the stop-loss number for Long or Short trades based on volatility using average true range and and a mult of that.
Triple ATR multiplier - 3 ATR Values in OneHere you can choose to plot 3 different ATR values in 1 window. I use this indicator to get the values of my stop loss and take profits.
You can change the multiplier value for each ATR Line and the length of the base ATR.
Ty
Trend trader StrategyFirst I would like to thank to @JustUncleL since this strategy started from one of his scalper strategies
This strategy can be adapted to all time charts .
First it has the session where we want to trade, for this example I choosed the EURUSD so I only take in consideration london/neywork session.
Its made from 3 EMA :
normal
slow
ultra slow
It has has the capacity to use HA candles into consideration if its needed.
At the same time we have a price channel made from faster MAs, that act like a bollinger band .
Together with all of them, we establish which trend we have if its uptrend or downtrend
Then we check the candles if they are below or above the MA , and based on the condition if they crossed recently we can suggest if its a buy or a long condition
At the same time we have 2 options of stop conditions:
Through a trailing stop made from ATR or % based
And second, a SL/TP made from pip points or % based.
For this example I used % based.
Let me know what you think about it, and if you found some nice settings for it. So far I only adapted to EURUSD 1 min time.
Stop-Loss order according to Average PenetrationAs a engineer, the view of signal and noise in the book of "Trading for a living"really interests me. For a trader the biggest issue is when should we enter and exit the market. The view of safety range stop loss may help to solve this problem for some beginner and give you a new idea of stoploss for you trade system
Here is the content from Trading for a Living
you may use the slope of a 22-day EMA to define the trend. You need to choose the length of the lookback period for measuring noise level. it has to be long enough to track recent behavior but short enough to be relevant for current trading. A period of 10 to 20 days works well, or we can make our lookback period 100 days or so if we want to average long-term market
if the trend is up, mark all downside penetrations during the look-back period, add their depths, and divide the sum by the number of penetrations。 This gives you the Average Downside Penetration for the selected look back
if today's low is lower than yesterday's, do not move your stop lower since we are only allowed to raise stops on long positions, not lower them
Reverse these rules in downtrends. When a 22-day EMA identifies a downtrend, count all the upside penetrations during the look-back period and find the Average Upside Penetration. Multiply it by a coefficient, starting with two. When you go short, place a stop twice he Average Upside Penetration above the previous day's high. Lower your stop whenever the market makes a lower high, but never raise it.
The important thing when you make an order is to hold your earning during a trending scenario. To avoid stopping loss by the variance in the market and to avoid big loss if the market shift to another direction in a short time.
From the graph there, I select the most recent trend up period in the Bitcoin and adjust the parameters according to this trend.
As you can see, the stop loss is away from the lowest price in bar, so that you will not be forced to exit the trade by small turbulence. You can hold your order and need to worry about missing the trend. But there are always sharp plunges in the uptrend. you can see two cursors on the graphic. The stop loss will help you avoid this plunge.
But in my opinion, this will be the hard stop loss in your trade. Help you to keep profit and avoid big loss. To maximize the profit, you had better to build you own strategy.
When I try to create this indicator, it is found that two rule for this indicator
1. you had better to use it in a clear trend range. Since the stop loss can only be higher in a long condition and lower in a short condition. If you use it in a volatile market., then stop loss doesn’t make any senses.
2. you need to adjust those parameters according to the market and the trend you are in. Some people like to avoid big loss, you can set them this depending on you experience
Last, this is getting from the view in the book, i didn’t do any back test for it. So please be careful to use it and let me know if you have any suggestions or ideas.
MACD VWAP IndicatorThis indicator uses a combination of the VWAP, EMA 9 and parts of the MACD in order to detect a bullish or bearish trend.
How to trade it:
Set SL either below or above the VWAP line (orange) and TP to 1:1.5 ratio (depending on last few candles, of course).
If EMA200 is close by then place SL either below or above EMA200 (blue) and TP to 1:1.5 ratio
Important:
Best traded in 15M, 30M => Intraday.
Have fun! :)
[CP]ATR Triple Stop Loss LevelsATR based Triple Stop Loss levels that are plotted on the chart (like moving averages!).
With ATR Levels plotted on the price chart itself, you can better set your volatility based trailing Stop Loss.
Also helps to define the SL when making an entry into a stock.
Note:
This indicator is supposed to be used on Daily and Weekly Charts.
For other timeframes you would need to tweek the default parameters.
Two Take Profits and Two Stop LossThis script is for research purposes only. I am not a financial advisor.
Entry Condition
This strategy is based on two take profit targets, two stop loss, and scaling out strategy. The entry rule is very simple. Whenever the EMA crossover WMA, the long trade is taken and vice versa.
Take Profit and Stop Loss
The first take profit is set at 20 pips above the long entry and the second take profit is set at 40 pips above the long entry. Meanwhile, the first stop loss is set at 20 pips below the long entry and the second stop loss is set at the long entry.
Money Management
When the first take profit is achieved, half of the position is closed and the first stop loss is moved to the entry-level. The rest of the position is open to achieve either second take profit or second stop loss.
There are three outcomes when using this strategy. Let's say you enter the trade with 200 lot size and you are risking 2% of your equity.
1. The first outcome is when the price hits stop loss, you lose the entire 2%.
2. The second outcome is when the price hits the first take profit and you close half of your position. Meaning that you have gained 1%. Then you let the trade running and eventually it hits the second stop loss. Remember your first stop loss has changed to the second stop loss when the first take profit is achieved. The total loss is 0% because the price is at your entry-level. You have gained the earlier 1% and then lost 0%. At this point, you are at 1% gained.
3. The third outcome is similar to the second out but instead of hitting the second stop loss, the trade is running to your favor and hits the second take profit.
Therefore, you gained 1% from the first take profit and you gained another 2% for the second take profit. Your total gained is 3%
Summary
The reason behind this strategy is to minimize risk. with normal strategy, you only have two outcomes which are either win or loss. With this strategy, you have three outcomes which win 3%, win 1%, or loss 2%.
This is my similar strategy but with single stop loss
Two Take Profit StrategyThis script is for research purposes only. I am not a financial advisor.
Entry Condition
This strategy is based on two take profit targets and scaling out strategy. The entry rule is very simple. Whenever the EMA crossover WMA, the long trade is taken and vice versa.
Take Profit and Stop Loss
The first take profit is set at 20 pips above the long entry and the second take profit is set at 40 pips above the long entry. Meanwhile, the stop loss is set at 20 pips below the long entry.
Money Management
When the first take profit is achieved, half of the position is closed. The rest of the position is open to achieve either second take profit or stop loss.
There are three outcomes when using this strategy. Let's say you enter the trade with 200 lot size and you are risking 2% of your equity.
1. The first outcome is when the price hits stop loss, you lose the entire 2%.
2. The second outcome is when the price hits the first take profit and you close half of your position. Meaning that you have gained 1%. Then you let the trade running and eventually it hits stop loss. The total loss is 0% because the remaining lot size which is 200/2=100 times by 20pips is 1%. You have gained the earlier 1% and then loss 1%. At this point, you are at break even.
3. The third outcome is similar to the second out but instead of hiring stop loss, the trade is running to your favor and hits the second take profit.
Therefore, you gained 1% from the first take profit and you gained another 2% for the second take profit. Your total gained is 3%
Summary
The reason behind this strategy is to minimize risk. with normal strategy, you only have two outcomes which are either win or loss. With this strategy, you have three outcomes which are win, loss or break even.
Trailing Stop LossTrailing stop loss indicator to determine when to exit a position.
Multiple trailing stop loss calculation techniques are implemented:
ATR: Determines stop loss using a gap from recent highest value, that gap is defined by the ATR value and a multiplier
MA: Just a simple moving average used as a stop-loss
Percentage: Uses a percentage of the price
The script also implements alerting to be notified when the stop loss price is reached.
Stoploss indicatorGood for setting trailing stops and stoplosses when your taking a scalp etc, most recommended for manual trailing stops
