Jaws Mean Reversion [Strategy]This very simple strategy is an implementation of PJ Sutherlands' Jaws Mean reversion algorithm. It simply buys when a small moving average period (e.g. 2) is below
a longer moving average period (e.g. 5) by a certain percentage and closes when the small period average crosses over the longer moving average.
If you are going to use this, you may wish to apply this to a range of investment assets using a screener for setups, as the amount signals are low. Alternatively, you may wish to tweak the settings to provide more signals.

BitCoin Simple BuyerMany people asking me: How to find the right time to exit BitCoin long position? First, that comes to mind is Do Not use simple Buy-and-Hold strategy, but make short-term trades. Here is the simple algorithm for D1 or 4H timeframes.
BollingerBands Strat + pending order alerts via TradingConnectorSoftware part of algotrading is simpler than you think. TradingView is a great place to do this actually. To present it, I'm publishing each of the default strategies you can find in Pinescript editor's "built-in" list with slight modification - I'm only adding 2 lines of code, which will trigger alerts, ready to be forwarded to your broker via TradingConnector and instantly executed there. Alerts added in this script: 14, 17, 20 and 23.
SCRIPT INCLUDES PENDING ORDERS AND ALERTS! Alert will be sent to MetaTrader when order is triggered, but not yet filled. That means if market conditions change and order does not get filled, it needs to be cancelled as well, and there are alerts for that in the script as well.
How it works:
1. TradingView alert fires.
2. TradingConnector catches it and forwards to MetaTrader4/5 you got from your broker.
3. Trade gets executed inside MetaTrader within 1 second of fired alert.
When configuring alert, make sure to select "alert() function calls only" in CreateAlert popup. One alert per ticker is required.
Adding stop-loss, take-profit, trailing-stop, break-even or executing pending orders is also possible. These topics have been covered in other example posts.
This routing works for Forex, indices, stocks, crypto - anything your broker offers via their MetaTrader4 or 5.
Disclaimer: This concept is presented for educational purposes only. Profitable results of trading this strategy are not guaranteed even if the backtest suggests so. By no means this post can be considered a trading advice. You trade at your own risk.
If you are thinking to execute this particular strategy, make sure to find the instrument, settings and timeframe which you like most. You can do this by your own research only.

3Commas BotBjorgum 3Commas Bot
A strategy in a box to get you started today
With 3rd party API providers growing in popularity, many are turning to automating their strategies on their favorite assets. With so many options and layers of customization possible, TradingView offers a place no better for young or even experienced coders to build a platform from to meet these needs. 3Commas has offered easy access with straight forward TradingView compatibility. Before long many have their brokers hooked up and are ready to send their alerts (or perhaps they have been trying with mixed success for some time now) only they realize there might just be a little bit more to building a strategy that they are comfortable letting out of their sight to trade their money while they eat, sleep, etc. Many may have ideas for entry criteria they are excited to try, but further questions arise... "What about risk mitigation?" "How can I set stop or limit orders?" "Is there not some basic shell of a strategy that has laid some of this out for me to get me going?"
Well now there is just that. This strategy is meant for those that have begun to delve into the world of algorithmic trading providing a template that offers risk defined positions complete with stops, limit orders, and even trailing stops should one so choose to employ any of these criteria. It provides a framework that is easily manipulated (with some basic working knowledge of pine coding) to encompass ones own ideas and entry criteria, while also providing an already functioning strategy.
The default settings have a basic 1:1 risk to reward ratio, which sets a limit and a stop equal distance from the entry. The entry is a simple MA cross (up for long, down for short). There a variety of MA's to choose from and the user can define the lengths of the averages. The ratio can be adjusted from the menu along with a volatility based adder (ATR) that helps to distance a stop from support or resistance. These values are calculated off the swing low/high of the user defined lookback period. Risk is calculated from position entry to stop, and projected upwards to the limit as a function of the desired risk to reward ratio. Of note: the default settings include 0.05% commissions. Competitive commissions of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges are .1% round trip (one buy and one sell) for market orders. There is also some slippage to allow time for alerts to be sent and orders to fill giving the back test results a more accurate representation of real time conditions. Its recommended to research the going rates for your exchange and set them to default for the strategy you use or build.
To get started a user would:
1) Make a copy of the code and paste in their bot keys in the area provided under the "3Comma Keys" section
- eg. Long bot "start deal" copied from 3commas in to define "Long" etc. (code is commented)
2) Place alert on desired asset with desired settings ensuring to select "Order fills and alert() function calls"
3) Paste webhook into the webhook box and select webhook URL alerts (3rd party provided webhook)
3) Delete contents of alert message box and replace with {{strategy.order.alert_message}} and nothing else
- the codes will be sent to the webhook appropriately as the strategy enters and exits positions. Only 1 alert is needed
settings used for the display image:
1hr chart on BTCUSD
-ATR stop
-Risk adjustment 1.2
-ATR multiplier 1.3
-RnR 0.6
-MAs HEMA/SMA
-MA Length 50/100
-Order size percent of equity
-Trail trigger 60% of target
Experiment with your own settings on your crypto of choice or implement your own code!
Implementing your trailing stop (optional)
Among the options for possible settings is a trailing stop. This stop will ratchet higher once triggered as a function of the Average True Range (ATR). There is a variable level to choose where the user would like to begin trailing the stop during the trade. The level can be assigned with a decimal between 0 and 1 (eg. 0.5 = 50% of the distance between entry and the target which must be exceeded before the trail triggers to begin). This can allow for some dips to occur during the trade possibly keeping you in the trade for longer, while potentially reducing risk of drawdown over time. The default for this setting is 0 meaning unless adjusted, the trail will trigger on entry if the trailing stop exit method is selected. An example can be seen below:
Again, optional as well is the choice to implement a limit order. If one were to select a trailing stop they could choose not to set a limit, which could allow a trail to run further until hit. Drawdowns of this strategy would be foregoing locking gains at highs on target on other trades. This is a trade-off the user can decide on and test. An example of this working in favor can be observed below:
Conclusion
Although a simple strategy is implemented here, the benefits of this script allow a user a starting platform to build their strategies from with built in risk mitigation. This allows the user to sidestep some of the potential difficulties' that can arise while learning Pine and taking on the endeavor of automating their trading strategies. It is meant as an aid, a structure, and an educational piece that can be seen as a "pick-up-and-go" strategy with easy 3Commas compatibility. Additionally, this can help users become more comfortable with strategy alert messages and sending strings in the form of alerts from Pine. As well, FAQs are often littered with questions regarding "strategy.exit" calls, how to implement stops. how to properly set a trailing stop based on ATR, and more. The time this can save an individual to get started is likely of the best "take-aways" here.
Happy trading
14/28 Day SMA Divergence and RSI - No RepaintIf you are interested in purchasing my algorithmic trading bot that receives Tradingview indicator alerts via email and then executes them in Bittrex, please visit my product page here: ilikestocks.com Additionally, I would love to create video/blog guides on creating Tradingview scripts or strategies. If you are a knowledgeable in finance or other related fields and would like to be featured on my page, please contact me at tanner@ilikestocks.com.
No crossovers were used in this script, and this is likely the reason for the no repaint(Correct me if wrong).
This strategy script uses a 14-day SMA signal line, a 28-day SMA and RSI. The strategy works by determining whether the (14-day SMA is above the 28-day SMA and the RSI levels are overbought(below 30)) or RSI is very overbought(below 13 or so). Once either of these conditions have been met, a long position is opened.
The initial long position must be partially closed by the take profit first and then the final close is executed if the 14-day signal SMA is below the 28-day SMA; you may also exclusively use take profit to close positions.
The green plotted spikes are the initial long position conditions. The orange plotted spikes are take profit signals once a long position is opened. The red plotted spikes are plotted when the SMA 14-day is below the 28-day SMA.
Please do leave constructive criticism or comments below because it helps me better create scripts!
Rocket Grid Algorithm - The Quant ScienceThe Rocket Grid Algorithm is a trading strategy that enables traders to engage in both long and short selling strategies. The script allows traders to backtest their strategies with a date range of their choice, in addition to selecting the desired strategy - either SMA Based Crossunder or SMA Based Crossover.
The script is a combination of trend following and short-term mean reversing strategies. Trend following involves identifying the current market trend and riding it for as long as possible until it changes direction. This type of strategy can be used over a medium- to long-term time horizon, typically several months to a few years.
Short-term mean reversing, on the other hand, involves taking advantage of short-term price movements that deviate from the average price. This type of strategy is usually applied over a much shorter time horizon, such as a few days to a few weeks. By rapidly entering and exiting positions, the strategy seeks to capture small, quick gains in volatile market conditions.
Overall, the script blends the best of both worlds by combining the long-term stability of trend following with the quick gains of short-term mean reversing, allowing traders to potentially benefit from both short-term and long-term market trends.
Traders can configure the start and end dates, months, and years, and choose the length of the data they want to work with. Additionally, they can set the percentage grid and the upper and lower destroyers to manage their trades effectively. The script also calculates the Simple Moving Average of the chosen data length and plots it on the chart.
The trigger for entering a trade is defined as a crossunder or crossover of the close price with the Simple Moving Average. Once the trigger is activated, the script calculates the total percentage of the side and creates a grid range. The grid range is then divided into ten equal parts, with each part representing a unique grid level. The script keeps track of each grid level, and once the close price reaches the grid level, it opens a trade in the specified direction.
The equity management strategy in the script involves a dynamic allocation of equity to each trade. The first order placed uses 10% of the available equity, while each subsequent order uses 1% less of the available equity. This results in the allocation of 9% for the second order, 8% for the third order, and so on, until a maximum of 10 open trades. This approach allows for risk management and can help to limit potential losses.
Overall, the Rocket Grid Algorithm is a flexible and powerful trading strategy that can be customized to meet the specific needs of individual traders. Its user-friendly interface and robust backtesting capabilities make it an excellent tool for traders looking to enhance their trading experience.
tvbot Trend Following with Mean Reversion algoDefault settings are for the ETHUSDT 5 min Binance Chart regular candles.
Back test Default settings are 10,000 usd to start, Commission 0.075%, capital deployment per position is 10%, slippage value of 1.
This algo uses the EMA to set the trend line . You are also able to turn the trend line into a range instead of just a static line. The algo uses the VWMA to set the base entry parameters. When a candle closes above or below the VWMA it will record that price and then wait for the VWMA to meet the candle close price. When that happens the Base entry condition is met. (it causes the vwma to create a hook like structure. essentially tell you that the momentum has changed directions.)
The algo will always check to see if the trend line has either breached or has been tested and held. If this condition has been met it will then go to the base entry condition to check to see if the momentum has changed.
There is a mean reversion component in this algo as well. When the price has moved away from the mean(set by user) by a certain amount the algo will start to look for a top or bottom. Once that condition has been met it will then use the base entry condition to look for a change in momentum, but the mean reversion base entry condition uses the HMA to check for a change in momentum.
This algo effectively looks like a hamburger. Mean reversion being the tops and bottoms(bun) and the trend following(beef patty)
Patient Trendfollower (7)(alpha) Backtesting AlgorithmThis is an alpha version of backtesting algorithm for my Patient Trendfollower (7) strategy. It can help you adapt the indicator to other charts than EURUSD. Please bear in mind that price action, volume profiles and supzistences are a catalyst for successful trading, not an indicator. You can get significantly better results if you use these things in your trading and use Trendfollower only as a secondary tool.

Bjorgum Double Tap█ OVERVIEW
Double Tap is a pattern recognition script aimed at detecting Double Tops and Double Bottoms. Double Tap can be applied to the broker emulator to observe historical results, run as a trading bot for live trade alerts in real time with entry signals, take profit, and stop orders, or to simply detect patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
How Is A Pattern Defined?
Doubles are technical formations that are both reversal patterns and breakout patterns. These formations typically have a distinctive “M” or a “W” shape with price action breaking beyond the neckline formed by the center of the pattern. They can be recognized when a pivot fails to break when tested for a second time and the retracement that follows breaks beyond the key level opposite. This can trap entrants that were playing in the direction of the prior trend. Entries are made on the breakout with a target projected beyond the neckline equal to the height of the pattern.
Pattern Recognition
Patterns are recognized through the use of zig-zag; a method of filtering price action by connecting swing highs and lows in an alternating fashion to establish trend, support and resistance, or derive shapes from price action. The script looks for the highest or lowest point in a given number of bars and updates a list with the values as they form. If the levels are exceeded, the values are updated. If the direction changes and a new significant point is made, a new point is added to the list and the process starts again. Meanwhile, we scan the list of values looking for the distinctive shape to form as previously described.
█ STRATEGY RESULTS
Back Testing
Historical back testing is the most common method to test a strategy due in part to the general ease of gathering quick results. The underlying theory is that any strategy that worked well in the past is likely to work well in the future, and conversely, any strategy that performed poorly in the past is likely to perform poorly in the future. It is easy to poke holes in this theory, however, as for one to accept it as gospel, one would have to assume that future results will match what has come to pass. The randomness of markets may see to it otherwise, so it is important to scrutinize results. Some commonly used methods are to compare to other markets or benchmarks, perform statistical analysis on the results over many iterations and on differing datasets, walk-forward testing, out-of-sample analysis, or a variety of other techniques. There are many ways to interpret the results, so it is important to do research and gain knowledge in the field prior to taking meaningful conclusions from them.
👉 In short, it would be naive to place trust in one good backtest and expect positive results to continue. For this reason, results have been omitted from this publication.
Repainting
Repainting is simply the difference in behaviour of a strategy in real time vs the results calculated on the historical dataset. The strategy, by default, will wait for confirmed signals and is thus designed to not repaint. Waiting for bar close for entires aligns results in the real time data feed to those calculated on historical bars, which contain far less data. By doing this we align the behaviour of the strategy on the 2 data types, which brings significance to the calculated results. To override this behaviour and introduce repainting one can select "Recalculate on every tick" from the properties tab. It is important to note that by doing this alerts may not align with results seen in the strategy tester when the chart is reloaded, and thus to do so is to forgo backtesting and restricts a strategy to forward testing only.
👉 It is possible to use this script as an indicator as opposed to a full strategy by disabling "Use Strategy" in the "Inputs" tab. Basic alerts for detection will be sent when patterns are detected as opposed to complex order syntax. For alerts mid-bar enable "Recalculate on every tick" , and for confirmed signals ensure it is disabled.
█ EXIT ORDERS
Limit and Stop Orders
By default, the strategy will place a stop loss at the invalidation point of the pattern. This point is beyond the pattern high in the case of Double Tops, or beneath the pattern low in the case of Double Bottoms. The target or take profit point is an equal-legs measurement, or 100% of the pattern height in the direction of the pattern bias. Both the stop and the limit level can be adjusted from the user menu as a percentage of the pattern height.
Trailing Stops
Optional from the menu is the implementation of an ATR based trailing stop. The trailing stop is designed to begin when the target projection is reached. From there, the script looks back a user-defined number of bars for the highest or lowest point +/- the ATR value. For tighter stops the user can look back a lesser number of bars, or decrease the ATR multiple. When using either Alertatron or Trading Connector, each change in the trail value will trigger an alert to update the stop order on the exchange to reflect the new trail price. This reduces latency and slippage that can occur when relying on alerts only as real exchange orders fill faster and remain in place in the event of a disruption in communication between your strategy and the exchange, which ensures a higher level of safety.
👉 It is important to note that in the case the trailing stop is enabled, limit orders are excluded from the exit criteria. Rather, the point in time that the limit value is exceeded is the point that the trail begins. As such, this method will exit by stop loss only.
█ ALERTS
Five Built-in 3rd Party Destinations
The following are five options for delivering alerts from Double Tap to live trade execution via third party API solutions or chat bots to share your trades on social media. These destinations can be selected from the input menu and alert syntax will automatically configure in alerts appropriately to manage trades.
Custom JSON
JSON, or JavaScript Object Notation, is a readable format for structuring data. It is used primarily to transmit data between a server and a web application. In regards to this script, this may be a custom intermediary web application designed to catch alerts and interface with an exchange API. The JSON message is a trade map for an application to read equipped with where its been, where its going, targets, stops, quantity; a full diagnostic of the current state and its previous state. A web application could be configured to follow the messages sent in this format and conduct trades in sync with alerts running on the TV server.
Below is an example of a rendered JSON alert:
{
"passphrase": "1234",
"time": "2022-05-01T17:50:05Z",
"ticker": "ETHUSDTPERP",
"plot": {
"stop_price": 2600.15,
"limit_price": 3100.45
},
"strategy": {
"position_size": 0.1,
"order_action": "buy",
"market_position": "long",
"market_position_size": 0,
"prev_market_position": "flat",
"prev_market_position_size": 0
}
}
Trading Connector
Trading Connector is a third party fully autonomous Chrome extension designed to catch alert webhooks from TradingView and interface with MT4/MT5 to execute live trades from your machine. Alerts to Trading Connector are simple; just select the destination from the input drop down menu, set your ticker in the "TC Ticker" box in the "Alert Strings" section and enter your URL in the alert window when configuring your alert.
Alertatron
Alertatron is an automated algo platform for cryptocurrency trading that is designed to automate your trading strategies. Although the platform is currently restricted to crypto, it offers a versatile interface with high flexibility syntax for complex market orders and conditions. To direct alerts to Alertatron, select the platform from the 3rd party drop down, configure your API key in the ”Alertatron Key” box and add your URL in the alert message box when making alerts.
3 Commas
3 Commas is an easy and quick to use click-and-go third party crypto API solution. Alerts are simple without overly complex syntax. Messages are simply pasted into alerts and executed as alerts are triggered. There are 4 boxes at the bottom of the "Inputs" tab where the appropriate messages to be placed. These messages can be copied from 3 Commas after the bots are set up and pasted directly into the settings menu. Remember to select 3 Commas as a destination from the third party drop down and place the appropriate URL in the alert message window.
Discord
Some may wish to share their trades with their friends in a Discord chat via webhook chat bot. Messages are configured to notify of the pattern type with targets and stop values. A bot can be configured through the integration menu in a Discord chat to which you have appropriate access. Select Discord from the 3rd party drop down menu and place your chat bot URL in the alert message window when configuring alerts.
👉 For further information regarding alert setup, refer to the platform specific instructions given by the chosen third party provider.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
Setting Alerts
For alert messages to be properly delivered on order fills it is necessary to place the following placeholder in the alert message box when creating an alert.
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
This placeholder will auto-populate the alert message with the appropriate syntax that is designated for the 3rd party selected in the user menu.
Order Sizing and Commissions
The values that are sent in alert messages are populated from live metrics calculated by the strategy. This means that the actual values in the "Properties" tab are used and must be set by the user. The initial capital, order size, commission, etc. are all used in the calculations, so it is important to set these prior to executing live trades. Be sure to set the commission to the values used by the exchange as well.
👉 It is important to understand that the calculations on the account size take place from the beginning of the price history of the strategy. This means that if historical results have inflated or depleted the account size from the beginning of trade history until now, the values sent in alerts will reflect the calculated size based on the inputs in the "Properties" tab. To start fresh, the user must set the date in the "Inputs" tab to the current date as to remove trades from the trade history. Failure to follow this instruction can result in an unexpected order size being sent in the alert.
█ FOR PINECODERS
• With the recent introduction of matrices in Pine, the script utilizes a matrix to track pivot points with the bars they occurred on, while tracking if that pivot has been traded against to prevent duplicate detections after a trade is exited.
• Alert messages are populated with placeholders ; capability that previously was only possible in alertcondition() , but has recently been extended to `strategy.*()` functions for use in the `alert_message` argument. This allows delivery of live trade values to populate in strategy alert messages.
• New arguments have been added to strategy.exit() , which allow differentiated messages to be sent based on whether the exit occurred at the stop or the limit. The new arguments used in this script are `alert_profit` and `alert_loss` to send messages to Discord
AK_ TREND ID AS A STRATEGY : FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLYJust converted the AK_ TREND ID into a strategy , to show the efficiency of this simple indicator. I used SPX in this example, to display that the indicator has been accurate for a long time.
ALGO 3h, 1h, 2hThis script tracks the crossing of the 10EMA on the 3h timeframe and the 200EMA on the 1h timeframe to open LONGS and SHORTS. Whether those LONGS or SHORTS actually trigger is based on the first 2 EMA's position in relation to a 3rd "controller" EMA.
Optimized Grid with KNN_2.0Strategy Overview
This strategy, named "Optimized Grid with KNN_2.0," is designed to optimize trading decisions using a combination of grid trading, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm, and a greedy algorithm. The strategy aims to maximize profits by dynamically adjusting entry and exit thresholds based on market conditions and historical data.
Key Components
Grid Trading:
The strategy uses a grid-based approach to place buy and sell orders at predefined price levels. This helps in capturing profits from market fluctuations.
K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) Algorithm:
The KNN algorithm is used to optimize entry and exit points based on historical price data. It identifies the nearest neighbors (similar price movements) and adjusts the thresholds accordingly.
Greedy Algorithm:
The greedy algorithm is employed to dynamically adjust the stop-loss and take-profit levels. It ensures that the strategy captures maximum profits by adjusting thresholds based on recent price changes.
Detailed Explanation
Grid Trading:
The strategy defines a grid of price levels where buy and sell orders are placed. The openTh and closeTh parameters determine the thresholds for opening and closing positions.
The t3_fast and t3_slow indicators are used to generate trading signals based on the crossover and crossunder of these indicators.
KNN Algorithm:
The KNN algorithm is used to find the nearest neighbors (similar price movements) in the historical data. It calculates the distance between the current price and historical prices to identify the most similar price movements.
The algorithm then adjusts the entry and exit thresholds based on the average change in price of the nearest neighbors.
Greedy Algorithm:
The greedy algorithm dynamically adjusts the stop-loss and take-profit levels based on recent price changes. It ensures that the strategy captures maximum profits by adjusting thresholds in real-time.
The algorithm uses the average_change variable to calculate the average price change of the nearest neighbors and adjusts the thresholds accordingly.
Trend Following Strategy with KNN
### 1. Strategy Features
This strategy combines the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm with a trend-following strategy to predict future price movements by analyzing historical price data. Here are the main features of the strategy:
1. **Dynamic Parameter Adjustment**: Uses the KNN algorithm to dynamically adjust parameters of the trend-following strategy, such as moving average length and channel length, to adapt to market changes.
2. **Trend Following**: Captures market trends using moving averages and price channels to generate buy and sell signals.
3. **Multi-Factor Analysis**: Combines the KNN algorithm with moving averages to comprehensively analyze the impact of multiple factors, improving the accuracy of trading signals.
4. **High Adaptability**: Automatically adjusts parameters using the KNN algorithm, allowing the strategy to adapt to different market environments and asset types.
### 2. Simple Introduction to the KNN Algorithm
The K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm is a simple and intuitive machine learning algorithm primarily used for classification and regression problems. Here are the basic concepts of the KNN algorithm:
1. **Non-Parametric Model**: KNN is a non-parametric algorithm, meaning it does not make any assumptions about the data distribution. Instead, it directly uses training data for predictions.
2. **Instance-Based Learning**: KNN is an instance-based learning method that uses training data directly for predictions, rather than generating a model through a training process.
3. **Distance Metrics**: The core of the KNN algorithm is calculating the distance between data points. Common distance metrics include Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, and Minkowski distance.
4. **Neighbor Selection**: For each test data point, the KNN algorithm finds the K nearest neighbors in the training dataset.
5. **Classification and Regression**: In classification problems, KNN determines the class of a test data point through a voting mechanism. In regression problems, KNN predicts the value of a test data point by calculating the average of the K nearest neighbors.
### 3. Applications of the KNN Algorithm in Quantitative Trading Strategies
The KNN algorithm can be applied to various quantitative trading strategies. Here are some common use cases:
1. **Trend-Following Strategies**: KNN can be used to identify market trends, helping traders capture the beginning and end of trends.
2. **Mean Reversion Strategies**: In mean reversion strategies, KNN can be used to identify price deviations from the mean.
3. **Arbitrage Strategies**: In arbitrage strategies, KNN can be used to identify price discrepancies between different markets or assets.
4. **High-Frequency Trading Strategies**: In high-frequency trading strategies, KNN can be used to quickly identify market anomalies, such as price spikes or volume anomalies.
5. **Event-Driven Strategies**: In event-driven strategies, KNN can be used to identify the impact of market events.
6. **Multi-Factor Strategies**: In multi-factor strategies, KNN can be used to comprehensively analyze the impact of multiple factors.
### 4. Final Considerations
1. **Computational Efficiency**: The KNN algorithm may face computational efficiency issues with large datasets, especially in real-time trading. Optimize the code to reduce access to historical data and improve computational efficiency.
2. **Parameter Selection**: The choice of K value significantly affects the performance of the KNN algorithm. Use cross-validation or other methods to select the optimal K value.
3. **Data Standardization**: KNN is sensitive to data standardization and feature selection. Standardize the data to ensure equal weighting of different features.
4. **Noisy Data**: KNN is sensitive to noisy data, which can lead to overfitting. Preprocess the data to remove noise.
5. **Market Environment**: The effectiveness of the KNN algorithm may be influenced by market conditions. Combine it with other technical indicators and fundamental analysis to enhance the robustness of the strategy.
DMI + HMA - No Risk ManagementDMI (Directional Movement Index) and HMA (Hull Moving Average)
The DMI and HMA make a great combination, The DMI will gauge the market direction, while the HMA will add confirmation to the trend strength.
What is the DMI?
The DMI is an indicator that was developed by J. Welles Wilder in 1978. The Indicator was designed to identify in which direction the price is moving. This is done by comparing previous highs and lows and drawing 2 lines.
1. A Positive movement line
2. A Negative movement line
A third line can be added, which would be known as the ADX line or Average Directional Index. This can also be used to gauge the strength in which direction the market is moving.
When the Positive movement line (DI+) is above the Negative movement line (DI-) there is more upward pressure. Ofcourse visa versa, when the DI- is above the DI+ that would indicate more downwards pressure.
Want to know more about HMA? Check out one of our other published scripts
What is this strategy doing?
We are first waiting for the DMI to cross in our favoured direction, after that, we wait for the HMA to signal the entry. Without both conditions being true, no trade will be made.
Long Entries
1. DI+ crosses above DI-
2. HMA line 1 is above HMA line 2
Short Entries
1. DI- Crosses above DI+
2. HMA line 1 is below HMA lilne 2
Its as simple as that.
Conclusion
While this strategy does have its downsides, that can be reduced by adding some risk manegment into the script. In general the trade profitability is above average, And the max drawdown is at a minimum.
The settings have been optimised to suite BTCUSDT PERP markets. Though with small adjustments it can be used on many assets!
Momentum + Keltner Stochastic Combo)The Momentum-Keltner-Stochastic Combination Strategy: A Technical Analysis and Empirical Validation
This study presents an advanced algorithmic trading strategy that implements a hybrid approach between momentum-based price dynamics and relative positioning within a volatility-adjusted Keltner Channel framework. The strategy utilizes an innovative "Keltner Stochastic" concept as its primary decision-making factor for market entries and exits, while implementing a dynamic capital allocation model with risk-based stop-loss mechanisms. Empirical testing demonstrates the strategy's potential for generating alpha in various market conditions through the combination of trend-following momentum principles and mean-reversion elements within defined volatility thresholds.
1. Introduction
Financial market trading increasingly relies on the integration of various technical indicators for identifying optimal trading opportunities (Lo et al., 2000). While individual indicators are often compromised by market noise, combinations of complementary approaches have shown superior performance in detecting significant market movements (Murphy, 1999; Kaufman, 2013). This research introduces a novel algorithmic strategy that synthesizes momentum principles with volatility-adjusted envelope analysis through Keltner Channels.
2. Theoretical Foundation
2.1 Momentum Component
The momentum component of the strategy builds upon the seminal work of Jegadeesh and Titman (1993), who demonstrated that stocks which performed well (poorly) over a 3 to 12-month period continue to perform well (poorly) over subsequent months. As Moskowitz et al. (2012) further established, this time-series momentum effect persists across various asset classes and time frames. The present strategy implements a short-term momentum lookback period (7 bars) to identify the prevailing price direction, consistent with findings by Chan et al. (2000) that shorter-term momentum signals can be effective in algorithmic trading systems.
2.2 Keltner Channels
Keltner Channels, as formalized by Chester Keltner (1960) and later modified by Linda Bradford Raschke, represent a volatility-based envelope system that plots bands at a specified distance from a central exponential moving average (Keltner, 1960; Raschke & Connors, 1996). Unlike traditional Bollinger Bands that use standard deviation, Keltner Channels typically employ Average True Range (ATR) to establish the bands' distance from the central line, providing a smoother volatility measure as established by Wilder (1978).
2.3 Stochastic Oscillator Principles
The strategy incorporates a modified stochastic oscillator approach, conceptually similar to Lane's Stochastic (Lane, 1984), but applied to a price's position within Keltner Channels rather than standard price ranges. This creates what we term "Keltner Stochastic," measuring the relative position of price within the volatility-adjusted channel as a percentage value.
3. Strategy Methodology
3.1 Entry and Exit Conditions
The strategy employs a contrarian approach within the channel framework:
Long Entry Condition:
Close price > Close price periods ago (momentum filter)
KeltnerStochastic < threshold (oversold within channel)
Short Entry Condition:
Close price < Close price periods ago (momentum filter)
KeltnerStochastic > threshold (overbought within channel)
Exit Conditions:
Exit long positions when KeltnerStochastic > threshold
Exit short positions when KeltnerStochastic < threshold
This methodology aligns with research by Brock et al. (1992) on the effectiveness of trading range breakouts with confirmation filters.
3.2 Risk Management
Stop-loss mechanisms are implemented using fixed price movements (1185 index points), providing definitive risk boundaries per trade. This approach is consistent with findings by Sweeney (1988) that fixed stop-loss systems can enhance risk-adjusted returns when properly calibrated.
3.3 Dynamic Position Sizing
The strategy implements an equity-based position sizing algorithm that increases or decreases contract size based on cumulative performance:
$ContractSize = \min(baseContracts + \lfloor\frac{\max(profitLoss, 0)}{equityStep}\rfloor - \lfloor\frac{|\min(profitLoss, 0)|}{equityStep}\rfloor, maxContracts)$
This adaptive approach follows modern portfolio theory principles (Markowitz, 1952) and Kelly criterion concepts (Kelly, 1956), scaling exposure proportionally to account equity.
4. Empirical Performance Analysis
Using historical data across multiple market regimes, the strategy demonstrates several key performance characteristics:
Enhanced performance during trending markets with moderate volatility
Reduced drawdowns during choppy market conditions through the dual-filter approach
Optimal performance when the threshold parameter is calibrated to market-specific characteristics (Pardo, 2008)
5. Strategy Limitations and Future Research
While effective in many market conditions, this strategy faces challenges during:
Rapid volatility expansion events where stop-loss mechanisms may be inadequate
Prolonged sideways markets with insufficient momentum
Markets with structural changes in volatility profiles
Future research should explore:
Adaptive threshold parameters based on regime detection
Integration with additional confirmatory indicators
Machine learning approaches to optimize parameter selection across different market environments (Cavalcante et al., 2016)

Intramarket Difference Index StrategyHi Traders !!
The IDI Strategy:
In layman’s terms this strategy compares two indicators across markets and exploits their differences.
note: it is best the two markets are correlated as then we know we are trading a short to long term deviation from both markets' general trend with the assumption both markets will trend again sometime in the future thereby exhausting our trading opportunity.
📍 Import Notes:
This Strategy calculates trade position size independently (i.e. risk per trade is controlled in the user inputs tab), this means that the ‘Order size’ input in the ‘Properties’ tab will have no effect on the strategy. Why ? because this allows us to define custom position size algorithms which we can use to improve our risk management and equity growth over time. Here we have the option to have fixed quantity or fixed percentage of equity ATR (Average True Range) based stops in addition to the turtle trading position size algorithm.
‘Pyramiding’ does not work for this strategy’, similar to the order size input togeling this input will have no effect on the strategy as the strategy explicitly defines the maximum order size to be 1.
This strategy is not perfect, and as of writing of this post I have not traded this algo.
Always take your time to backtests and debug the strategy.
🔷 The IDI Strategy:
By default this strategy pulls data from your current TV chart and then compares it to the base market, be default BINANCE:BTCUSD . The strategy pulls SMA and RSI data from either market (we call this the difference data), standardizes the data (solving the different unit problem across markets) such that it is comparable and then differentiates the data, calling the result of this transformation and difference the Intramarket Difference (ID). The formula for the the ID is
ID = market1_diff_data - market2_diff_data (1)
Where
market(i)_diff_data = diff_data / ATR(j)_market(i)^0.5,
where i = {1, 2} and j = the natural numbers excluding 0
Formula (1) interpretation is the following
When ID > 0: this means the current market outperforms the base market
When ID = 0: Markets are at long run equilibrium
When ID < 0: this means the current market underperforms the base market
To form the strategy we define one of two strategy type’s which are Trend and Mean Revesion respectively.
🔸 Trend Case:
Given the ‘‘Strategy Type’’ is equal to TREND we define a threshold for which if the ID crosses over we go long and if the ID crosses under the negative of the threshold we go short.
The motivating idea is that the ID is an indicator of the two symbols being out of sync, and given we know volatility clustering, momentum and mean reversion of anomalies to be a stylised fact of financial data we can construct a trading premise. Let's first talk more about this premise.
For some markets (cryptocurrency markets - synthetic symbols in TV) the stylised fact of momentum is true, this means that higher momentum is followed by higher momentum, and given we know momentum to be a vector quantity (with magnitude and direction) this momentum can be both positive and negative i.e. when the ID crosses above some threshold we make an assumption it will continue in that direction for some time before executing back to its long run equilibrium of 0 which is a reasonable assumption to make if the market are correlated. For example for the BTCUSD - ETHUSD pair, if the ID > +threshold (inputs for MA and RSI based ID thresholds are found under the ‘‘INTRAMARKET DIFFERENCE INDEX’’ group’), ETHUSD outperforms BTCUSD, we assume the momentum to continue so we go long ETHUSD.
In the standard case we would exit the market when the IDI returns to its long run equilibrium of 0 (for the positive case the ID may return to 0 because ETH’s difference data may have decreased or BTC’s difference data may have increased). However in this strategy we will not define this as our exit condition, why ?
This is because we want to ‘‘let our winners run’’, to achieve this we define a trailing Donchian Channel stop loss (along with a fixed ATR based stop as our volatility proxy). If we were too use the 0 exit the strategy may print a buy signal (ID > +threshold in the simple case, market regimes may be used), return to 0 and then print another buy signal, and this process can loop may times, this high trade frequency means we fail capture the entire market move lowering our profit, furthermore on lower time frames this high trade frequencies mean we pay more transaction costs (due to price slippage, commission and big-ask spread) which means less profit.
By capturing the sum of many momentum moves we are essentially following the trend hence the trend following strategy type.
Here we also print the IDI (with default strategy settings with the MA difference type), we can see that by letting our winners run we may catch many valid momentum moves, that results in a larger final pnl that if we would otherwise exit based on the equilibrium condition(Valid trades are denoted by solid green and red arrows respectively and all other valid trades which occur within the original signal are light green and red small arrows).
another example...
Note: if you would like to plot the IDI separately copy and paste the following code in a new Pine Script indicator template.

Note it is possible that after printing a buy the strategy then prints many sell signals before returning to a buy, which again has the same implication (less profit. Potentially because we exit early only for price to continue upwards hence missing the larger "trend"). The image below showcases this cenario and again, by allowing our winner to run we may capture more profit (theoretically).
This should be clear...
🔸 Mean Reversion Case:
We stated prior that mean reversion of anomalies is an standerdies fact of financial data, how can we exploit this ?
We exploit this by normalizing the ID by applying the Ehlers fisher transformation. The transformed data is then assumed to be approximately normally distributed. To form the strategy we employ the same logic as for the z score, if the FT normalized ID > 2.5 (< -2.5) we buy (short). Our exit conditions remain unchanged (fixed ATR stop and trailing Donchian Trailing stop)
🔷 Position Sizing:
If ‘‘Fixed Risk From Initial Balance’’ is toggled true this means we risk a fixed percentage of our initial balance, if false we risk a fixed percentage of our equity (current balance).
Note we also employ a volatility adjusted position sizing formula, the turtle training method which is defined as follows.
Turtle position size = (1/ r * ATR * DV) * C
Where,
r = risk factor coefficient (default is 20)
ATR(j) = risk proxy, over j times steps
DV = Dollar Volatility, where DV = (1/Asset Price) * Capital at Risk
🔷 Risk Management:
Correct money management means we can limit risk and increase reward (theoretically). Here we employ
Max loss and gain per day
Max loss per trade
Max number of consecutive losing trades until trade skip
To read more see the tooltips (info circle).
🔷 Take Profit:
By defualt the script uses a Donchain Channel as a trailing stop and take profit, In addition to this the script defines a fixed ATR stop losses (by defualt, this covers cases where the DC range may be to wide making a fixed ATR stop usefull), ATR take profits however are defined but optional.
ATR SL and TP defined for all trades
🔷 Hurst Regime (Regime Filter):
The Hurst Exponent (H) aims to segment the market into three different states, Trending (H > 0.5), Random Geometric Brownian Motion (H = 0.5) and Mean Reverting / Contrarian (H < 0.5). In my interpretation this can be used as a trend filter that eliminates market noise.
We utilize the trending and mean reverting based states, as extra conditions required for valid trades for both strategy types respectively, in the process increasing our trade entry quality.

Here is an example of one configuration of this strategy, combining all aspects discussed in this post.

AI SuperTrend x Pivot Percentile - Strategy [PresentTrading]█ Introduction and How it is Different
The AI SuperTrend x Pivot Percentile strategy is a sophisticated trading approach that integrates AI-driven analysis with traditional technical indicators. Combining the AI SuperTrend with the Pivot Percentile strategy highlights several key advantages:
1. Enhanced Accuracy in Trend Prediction: The AI SuperTrend utilizes K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm for trend prediction, improving accuracy by considering historical data patterns. This is complemented by the Pivot Percentile analysis which provides additional context on trend strength.
2. Comprehensive Market Analysis: The integration offers a multi-faceted approach to market analysis, combining AI insights with traditional technical indicators. This dual approach captures a broader range of market dynamics.

█ Strategy: How it Works - Detailed Explanation
🔶 AI-Enhanced SuperTrend Indicators
1. SuperTrend Calculation:
- The SuperTrend indicator is calculated using a moving average and the Average True Range (ATR). The basic formula is:
- Upper Band = Moving Average + (Multiplier × ATR)
- Lower Band = Moving Average - (Multiplier × ATR)
- The moving average type (SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, VWMA) and the length of the moving average and ATR are adjustable parameters.
- The direction of the trend is determined based on the position of the closing price in relation to these bands.
2. AI Integration with K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN):
- The KNN algorithm is applied to predict trend direction. It uses historical price data and SuperTrend values to classify the current trend as bullish or bearish.
- The algorithm calculates the 'distance' between the current data point and historical points. The 'k' nearest data points (neighbors) are identified based on this distance.
- A weighted average of these neighbors' trends (bullish or bearish) is calculated to predict the current trend.

🔶 Pivot Percentile Analysis
1. Percentile Calculation:
- This involves calculating the percentile ranks for high and low prices over a set of predefined lengths.
- The percentile function is typically defined as:
- Percentile = Value at (P/100) × (N + 1)th position
- Where P is the desired percentile, and N is the number of data points.
2. Trend Strength Evaluation:
- The calculated percentiles for highs and lows are used to determine the strength of bullish and bearish trends.
- For instance, a high percentile rank in the high prices may indicate a strong bullish trend, and vice versa for bearish trends.
For more please check: Pivot Percentile Trend - Strategy
🔶 Strategy Integration
1. Combining SuperTrend and Pivot Percentile:
- The strategy synthesizes the insights from both AI-enhanced SuperTrend and Pivot Percentile analysis.
- It compares the trend direction indicated by the SuperTrend with the strength of the trend as suggested by the Pivot Percentile analysis.
2. Signal Generation:
- A trading signal is generated when both the AI-enhanced SuperTrend and the Pivot Percentile analysis agree on the trend direction.
- For instance, a bullish signal is generated when both the SuperTrend is bullish, and the Pivot Percentile analysis shows strength in bullish trends.
🔶 Risk Management and Filters
- ADX and DMI Filter: The strategy uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) and the Directional Movement Index (DMI) as filters to assess the trend's strength and direction.
- Dynamic Trailing Stop Loss: Based on the SuperTrend indicator, the strategy dynamically adjusts stop-loss levels to manage risk effectively.
This strategy stands out for its ability to combine real-time AI analysis with established technical indicators, offering traders a nuanced and responsive tool for navigating complex market conditions. The equations and algorithms involved are pivotal in accurately identifying market trends and potential trade opportunities.
█ Usage
To effectively use this strategy, traders should:
1. Understand the AI and Pivot Percentile Indicators: A clear grasp of how these indicators work will enable traders to make informed decisions.
2. Interpret the Signals Accurately: The strategy provides bullish, bearish, and neutral signals. Traders should align these signals with their market analysis and trading goals.
3. Monitor Market Conditions: Given that this strategy is sensitive to market dynamics, continuous monitoring is crucial for timely decision-making.
4. Adjust Settings as Needed: Traders should feel free to tweak the input parameters to suit their trading preferences and to respond to changing market conditions.
█Default Settings and Their Impact on Performance
1. Trading Direction (Default: "Both")
Effect: Determines whether the strategy will take long positions, short positions, or both. Adjusting this setting can align the strategy with the trader's market outlook or risk preference.
2. AI Settings (Neighbors: 3, Data Points: 24)
Neighbors: The number of nearest neighbors in the KNN algorithm. A higher number might smooth out noise but could miss subtle, recent changes. A lower number makes the model more sensitive to recent data but may increase noise.
Data Points: Defines the amount of historical data considered. More data points provide a broader context but may dilute recent trends' impact.
3. SuperTrend Settings (Length: 10, Factor: 3.0, MA Source: "WMA")
Length: Affects the sensitivity of the SuperTrend indicator. A longer length results in a smoother, less sensitive indicator, ideal for long-term trends.
Factor: Determines the bandwidth of the SuperTrend. A higher factor creates wider bands, capturing larger price movements but potentially missing short-term signals.
MA Source: The type of moving average used (e.g., WMA - Weighted Moving Average). Different MA types can affect the trend indicator's responsiveness and smoothness.
4. AI Trend Prediction Settings (Price Trend: 10, Prediction Trend: 80)
Price Trend and Prediction Trend Lengths: These settings define the lengths of weighted moving averages for price and SuperTrend, impacting the responsiveness and smoothness of the AI's trend predictions.
5. Pivot Percentile Settings (Length: 10)
Length: Influences the calculation of pivot percentiles. A shorter length makes the percentile more responsive to recent price changes, while a longer length offers a broader view of price trends.
6. ADX and DMI Settings (ADX Length: 14, Time Frame: 'D')
ADX Length: Defines the period for the Average Directional Index calculation. A longer period results in a smoother ADX line.
Time Frame: Sets the time frame for the ADX and DMI calculations, affecting the sensitivity to market changes.
7. Commission, Slippage, and Initial Capital
These settings relate to transaction costs and initial investment, directly impacting net profitability and strategy feasibility.
Cycles StrategyThis is back-testable strategy is a modified version of the Stochastic strategy. It is meant to accompany the modified Stochastic indicator: "Cycles".
Modifications to the Stochastic strategy include;
1. Programmable settings for the Stochastic Periods (%K, %D and Smooth %K).
2. Programmable settings for the MACD Periods (Fast, Slow, Smoothing)
3. Programmable thresholds for %K, to qualify a potential entry strategy.
4. Programmable thresholds for %D, to qualify a potential exit strategy.
5. Buttons to choose which components to use in the trading algorithm.
6. Choose the month and year to back test.
The trading algorithm:
1. When %K exceeds the upper/lower threshold and then hooks down/up, in the direction of the Moving Average (MA). This is the minimum entry qualification.
2. When %D exceeds the lower/upper threshold and angled in the direction of the trade, is the exit qualification.
3. Additional entry filters include the direction of MACD, Signal and %D. Also, the "cliff", being a long entry is a higher high or a short entry is a lower low.
4. Strategy can only go "Long" or "Short" depending on the selected setting.
5. By matching the settings in the "Cycles" indicator, you can (almost) see what the strategy is doing.
6. Be sure to select the "Recalculate" buttons, to recalculate on every new Tick, for best results.

EXODUS EXODUS by (DAFE) Trading Systems
EXODUS is a sophisticated trading algorithm built by Dskyz (DAFE) Trading Systems for competitive and competition purposes, designed to identify high-probability trades with robust risk management. this strategy leverages a multi-signal voting system, combining three core components—SPR, VWMO, and VEI—alongside ADX, choppiness filters, and ATR-based volatility gates to ensure trades are taken only in favorable market conditions. the algo uses a take-profit to stop-loss ratio, dynamic position sizing, and a strict voting mechanism requiring all signals to align before entering a trade.
EXODUS was not overfitted for any specific symbol. instead, it uses a generic tuned setting, making it versatile across various markets. while it can trade futures, it’s not currently set up for it but has the potential to do more with further development. visuals are intentionally minimal due to its competition focus, prioritizing performance over aesthetics. a more visually stunning version may be released in the future with enhanced graphics.
The Unique Core Components Developed for EXODUS
SPR (Session Price Recalibration)
SPR measures momentum during regular trading hours (RTH, 0930-1600, America/New_York) to catch session-specific trends.
spr_lookback = input.int(15, "SPR Lookback") this sets how many bars back SPR looks to calculate momentum (default 15 bars). it compares the current session’s price-volume score to the score 15 bars ago to gauge momentum strength.
how it works: a longer lookback smooths out the signal, focusing on bigger trends. a shorter one makes SPR more sensitive to recent moves.
how to adjust: on a 1-hour chart, 15 bars is 15 hours (about 2 trading days). if you’re on a shorter timeframe like 5 minutes, 15 bars is just 75 minutes, so you might want to increase it to 50 or 100 to capture more meaningful trends. if you’re trading a choppy stock, a shorter lookback (like 5) can help catch quick moves, but it might give more false signals.
spr_threshold = input.float (0.7, "SPR Threshold")
this is the cutoff for SPR to vote for a trade (default 0.7). if SPR’s normalized value is above 0.7, it votes for a long; below -0.7, it votes for a short.
how it works: SPR normalizes its momentum score by ATR, so this threshold ensures only strong moves count. a higher threshold means fewer trades but higher conviction.
how to adjust: if you’re getting too few trades, lower it to 0.5 to let more signals through. if you’re seeing too many false entries, raise it to 1.0 for stricter filtering. test on your chart to find a balance.
spr_atr_length = input.int(21, "SPR ATR Length") this sets the ATR period (default 21 bars) used to normalize SPR’s momentum score. ATR measures volatility, so this makes SPR’s signal relative to market conditions.
how it works: a longer ATR period (like 21) smooths out volatility, making SPR less jumpy. a shorter one makes it more reactive.
how to adjust: if you’re trading a volatile stock like TSLA, a longer period (30 or 50) can help avoid noise. for a calmer stock, try 10 to make SPR more responsive. match this to your timeframe—shorter timeframes might need a shorter ATR.
rth_session = input.session("0930-1600","SPR: RTH Sess.") rth_timezone = "America/New_York" this defines the session SPR uses (0930-1600, New York time). SPR only calculates momentum during these hours to focus on RTH activity.
how it works: it ignores pre-market or after-hours noise, ensuring SPR captures the main market action.
how to adjust: if you trade a different session (like London hours, 0300-1200 EST), change the session to match. you can also adjust the timezone if you’re in a different region, like "Europe/London". just make sure your chart’s timezone aligns with this setting.
VWMO (Volume-Weighted Momentum Oscillator)
VWMO measures momentum weighted by volume to spot sustained, high-conviction moves.
vwmo_momlen = input.int(21, "VWMO Momentum Length") this sets how many bars back VWMO looks to calculate price momentum (default 21 bars). it takes the price change (close minus close 21 bars ago).
how it works: a longer period captures bigger trends, while a shorter one reacts to recent swings.
how to adjust: on a daily chart, 21 bars is about a month—good for trend trading. on a 5-minute chart, it’s just 105 minutes, so you might bump it to 50 or 100 for more meaningful moves. if you want faster signals, drop it to 10, but expect more noise.
vwmo_volback = input.int(30, "VWMO Volume Lookback") this sets the period for calculating average volume (default 30 bars). VWMO weights momentum by volume divided by this average.
how it works: it compares current volume to the average to see if a move has strong participation. a longer lookback smooths the average, while a shorter one makes it more sensitive.
how to adjust: for stocks with spiky volume (like NVDA on earnings), a longer lookback (50 or 100) avoids overreacting to one-off spikes. for steady volume stocks, try 20. match this to your timeframe—shorter timeframes might need a shorter lookback.
vwmo_smooth = input.int(9, "VWMO Smoothing")
this sets the SMA period to smooth VWMO’s raw momentum (default 9 bars).
how it works: smoothing reduces noise in the signal, making VWMO more reliable for voting. a longer smoothing period cuts more noise but adds lag.
how to adjust: if VWMO is too jumpy (lots of false votes), increase to 15. if it’s too slow and missing trades, drop to 5. test on your chart to see what keeps the signal clean but responsive.
vwmo_threshold = input.float(10, "VWMO Threshold") this is the cutoff for VWMO to vote for a trade (default 10). above 10, it votes for a long; below -10, a short.
how it works: it ensures only strong momentum signals count. a higher threshold means fewer but stronger trades.
how to adjust: if you want more trades, lower it to 5. if you’re getting too many weak signals, raise it to 15. this depends on your market—volatile stocks might need a higher threshold to filter noise.
VEI (Velocity Efficiency Index)
VEI measures market efficiency and velocity to filter out choppy moves and focus on strong trends.
vei_eflen = input.int(14, "VEI Efficiency Smoothing") this sets the EMA period for smoothing VEI’s efficiency calc (bar range / volume, default 14 bars).
how it works: efficiency is how much price moves per unit of volume. smoothing it with an EMA reduces noise, focusing on consistent efficiency. a longer period smooths more but adds lag.
how to adjust: for choppy markets, increase to 20 to filter out noise. for faster markets, drop to 10 for quicker signals. this should match your timeframe—shorter timeframes might need a shorter period.
vei_momlen = input.int(8, "VEI Momentum Length") this sets how many bars back VEI looks to calculate momentum in efficiency (default 8 bars).
how it works: it measures the change in smoothed efficiency over 8 bars, then adjusts for inertia (volume-to-range). a longer period captures bigger shifts, while a shorter one reacts faster.
how to adjust: if VEI is missing quick reversals, drop to 5. if it’s too noisy, raise to 12. test on your chart to see what catches the right moves without too many false signals.
vei_threshold = input.float(4.5, "VEI Threshold") this is the cutoff for VEI to vote for a trade (default 4.5). above 4.5, it votes for a long; below -4.5, a short.
how it works: it ensures only strong, efficient moves count. a higher threshold means fewer trades but higher quality.
how to adjust: if you’re not getting enough trades, lower to 3. if you’re seeing too many false entries, raise to 6. this depends on your market—fast stocks like NQ1 might need a lower threshold.
Features
Multi-Signal Voting: requires all three signals (SPR, VWMO, VEI) to align for a trade, ensuring high-probability setups.
Risk Management: uses ATR-based stops (2.1x) and take-profits (4.1x), with dynamic position sizing based on a risk percentage (default 0.4%).
Market Filters: ADX (default 27) ensures trending conditions, choppiness index (default 54.5) avoids sideways markets, and ATR expansion (default 1.12) confirms volatility.
Dashboard: provides real-time stats like SPR, VWMO, VEI values, net P/L, win rate, and streak, with a clean, functional design.
Visuals
EXODUS prioritizes performance over visuals, as it was built for competitive and competition purposes. entry/exit signals are marked with simple labels and shapes, and a basic heatmap highlights market regimes. a more visually stunning update may be released later, with enhanced graphics and overlays.
Usage
EXODUS is designed for stocks and ETFs but can be adapted for futures with adjustments. it performs best in trending markets with sufficient volatility, as confirmed by its generic tuning across symbols like TSLA, AMD, NVDA, and NQ1. adjust inputs like SPR threshold, VWMO smoothing, or VEI momentum length to suit specific assets or timeframes.
