This script creates a stop loss level and then moves it up in 5% increments as prices increase. Basically, it checks to see if the lowest low of the last 7 days is above a certain level. If yes, it sets the stop at that level. It then checks for the next highest level and keeps going until the price is not above a level. Those variables are then set to the level...
This indicator plots 2 sets of dots (and lines) based on your chosen ATR multiplier (Average True Range). Generally, when trading on the daily timeframe a good rule of thumb is to use the ATR * 1.5 (the default setting of this indicator). I created this indicator to quickly test other indicators but I also find it helpful in live trading. How to use this...
This indicator takes the average of a series of ATR to calculate what I would consider an optimum stop loss placement represented in percentage (read below for full overview). While the data is plotted what is most helpful are the actual numbers presented and for my charts I remove most of the plotting. This indicator is most helpful on the daily timeframe but...
This indicator shares ATR pips and a calculated 1.5 x stop loss calculation. 1st number is ATR. 2nd number is ATR x 1.5 (a typical SL when trading daily time frame). The plot lines are really not that important- it's the actual numbers. What I do is uncheck the plot line checkboxes (ATR & SL) so it doesn't show up, that way I can reduce the indicator...
This would be my second ever published strategy. It is almost the same as my first ever published script . I've been working primarily on UGAZ and DGAZ . This is basically a statistical trade. It buys every morning near market open (or by choosing a "time constraint"), then immediately places a trailing stop at a specified amount in ticks (if used on...
Looking for Statistical trades that work. This one seems to work on some Leveraged ETFs with a lot of noise like UGAZ/DGAZ. It can also be used on Futures Contracts, but be sure to change up the type of investment from % of equity to contracts. Also one point I'm trying to make with this strategy is the trades are best made in the morning around market open. ...
This indicator will calculate your position size, short or long, based on the ATR Trailing Stop indicator of mine, and are needed to be used together. General risk management suggests risking just 1 percent of your equity and using low leverage.
This is based on the Average True Range Trailing Stops Strategy by Sylvain Vervoort, coded on TV HPotter. I have added Bands to see potential short and long stop loss zones before the indicator signals to switch itself, also changed color on the main Trailing Stop based on whether it is short or long, added increased stop loss hunt protection by combining with my...
This script measures the maximum and average length of upper and lower wicks. While this can be used as a volatility gauge and to see if there is more support or resistance, it's primary use is to not get wicked out on stops, by adding one of these numbers to the the Moving Average or S/R level that one is using for a Stop, plus maybe a few points of buffer.
This is an updated version of my previous stop loss script. I've added a double EMA line and modified the stop as below; In an uptrend.... 1. a yellow dot will appear once it's time to move your stop. The yellow dot will display at the level of the stop loss. Place your stop 1 pip below the dot. 2. The yellow dot will only appear if a new higher low has formed...
Trailing stop with alerts which automatically updates when a new pivot forms to maximize the ability to ride trends and get out in a timely fashion. Contains long and short stop trigger alerts.
Hi everyone. This is my first strategy ever. So, I'm having a trouble with the exits and was wondering if anyone could help me out. The error says that the order's limit was reached. Doesn't matter if I back test it just for one day. Any ideas on what's going on?
Exits added using trailing stops. 2.6 Profit Factor and 76% Profitable on SPY , 5M - I think it's a pretty good number for an automated strategy that uses Pivots. I don't think it's possible to add volume and day open price in relation to pivot levels -- that's what I do manually .. Still trying to add EMA for exits.. it will increase profitability. You can...
