MÈGAS ALGO : MÈGAS Signals [INDICATOR]Overview
The MÈGAS Signals is a cutting-edge, multi-functional trading tool designed for advanced traders seeking to identify high-probability trade setups. This script combines price action analysis, machine learning techniques, and real-time signal generation across multiple timeframes to provide actionable insights. The indicator is optimized for both bullish and bearish market conditions and includes features like backtesting metrics, take-profit tools, and customizable alerts.
Key Features
1. Machine Learning and Statistical Clustering
The script implements the K-Means clustering algorithm , a widely used unsupervised machine learning technique, to segment historical price movements into distinct clusters based on magnitude and distribution characteristics. These clusters represent quantized levels of bullish and bearish momentum, enabling the system to adaptively model market behavior across varying volatility regimes.
By applying this statistical clustering approach to real-time price data, the algorithm dynamically identifies meaningful thresholds for key Smart Money Concepts (SMC) such as Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH) . This integration enhances classical SMC logic with a data-driven, self-adjusting mechanism that responds to evolving market conditions, effectively bridging traditional price action analysis with modern machine learning methodologies.
2.Multi-Timeframe Table:
A dynamic, real-time multi-timeframe table displayed on the chart that provides at-a-glance insight into:
-Current trend or signal status per timeframe
-Percentage price change relative to the previous bar
-Countdown to the next bar open , updated every second
This table empowers traders with cross-timeframe context , helping them identify confluence, reversals, or divergences across multiple horizons — from scalping (1m) to long-term trends (1D).
3.Dynamic Trailing Stops with Enhanced Visualization
The dynamic trailing stop mechanism adjusts based on volatility clusters, ensuring tighter risk
management during low-volatility periods and wider stops during high-volatility phases.
The feed speed feature enhances visualization by adjusting the transparency of candle
coloring relative to the trailing stop. This makes it easier to interpret trend strength and
momentum, allowing traders to stay ahead of price action.
4.Customizable Alerts for Seamless Execution
Sublimia Signals offers highly customizable alerts that can be tailored to specific timeframes
and trading preferences.
With the intra-bar calculation feature, alerts can be triggered on every tick rather than just
on bar close, empowering traders to act swiftly in fast-moving markets.
Personalized alert messages allow you to create clear and concise notifications for entry and
exit points, streamlining your trading workflow.
5.Comprehensive Backtesting Metrics
The built-in performance metrics table provides detailed backtesting results, including total
trades, win rates, cumulative profit/loss, profit factor, best profit, and worst loss for both
long and short positions.
These metrics enable traders to evaluate the effectiveness of their strategies and optimize
input parameters for better performance.
6.Non-Standard Candle Integration for Smoother Price Action Analysis
The optional Non-Standard Candle toggle allows users to switch between "Traditional", "Heikin-Ashi", "Volume-Weighted" and "Hybrid" candles.
This feature is particularly useful for identifying trends and filtering out market noise, while
backtesting remains based on normal candles to ensure accuracy.
7.Intra-Bar Calculation for Granular Insights
When enabled, the intra-bar calculation feature provides granular insights into price
movements within each bar, offering traders a deeper understanding of market dynamics.
This feature also modifies the algorithm's logic, triggering alerts on every tick rather than just
on bar close, making it ideal for scalpers and day traders who need ultra-responsive tools.
8.Take-Profit/Trailing-Profit Tools: Precision and Flexibility
This feature allows you to set multiple profit levels with customizable percentage
distances, giving you unparalleled control over your trades.
Selectable Type of exit mode : Take-Profit or Trailing-Profit.
Selectable Number of Profit Levels: Define as many profit targets as you need,
ensuring you can capture profits at different stages of price movement.
Percentage-Based Distance: Set each profit level based on a percentage distance from
your entry point. This ensures precise positioning tailored to your risk-reward preferences.
Integrated Alerts: Never miss an opportunity! The tool includes built-in alerts that notify you
when each take-profit level is reached, keeping you informed in real-time.
9.Optimized Visualization
The script ensures optimized visualization of trend strength through smooth transitions in
candle transparency, making it easier to interpret market momentum.
The feed speed parameter calculates how quickly the candle coloring adjusts relative to the
trailing stop, enhancing clarity and decision-making.
How it work
Identify the Primary Trend Using Multi-Timeframe Analysis :
Focus on Higher Timeframes : Start by analyzing the 4h, 8h, or 24h timeframes to determine the primary trend. These higher timeframes provide a clearer picture of long-term momentum.
The built-in table provides real-time updates across all primarly timeframes. Look for confluence—when multiple timeframes align in the same direction.
Confirm Entry Points Using Lower Timeframes :
Fine-Tune Entries with Shorter Timeframes : Once you’ve identified the primary trend, use lower timeframes (e.g., 1m, 5m, or 15m ) to confirm entry points.
Set Take-Profit Levels Based on Percentage Distances :
Customizable Take-Profit Tools : Use the take-profit feature to set multiple levels based on percentage distances from your entry point.
Use Customizable Alerts for Real-Time Updates :
Enable alerts for specific timeframes (e.g., 4h, 8h, 15m) to stay informed about changes in the primary trend or short-term opportunities.
For fast-moving markets, enable the intra-bar calculation feature to receive alerts on every tick, ensuring you don’t miss critical entries or exits.
Backtesting for Strategy Optimization :
Performance Metrics : Use the backtesting metrics table to evaluate how well your trend-following strategy performs over time. Analyze win rates, profit factor, and best/worst trades to refine your approach.
Adjust Inputs : Fine-tune settings like slippage and commission(%) to optimize the indicator for your prefer pair.

Поиск скриптов по запросу "profit factor"
Best SMA FinderThis script, Best SMA Finder, is a tool designed to identify the most robust simple moving average (SMA) length for a given chart, based on historical backtest performance. It evaluates hundreds of SMA values (from 10 to 1000) and selects the one that provides the best balance between profitability, consistency, and trade frequency.
What it does:
The script performs individual backtests for each SMA length using either "Long Only" or "Buy & Sell" logic, as selected by the user. For each tested SMA, it computes:
- Total number of trades
- Profit Factor (total profits / total losses)
- Win Rate
- A composite Robustness Score, which integrates Profit Factor, number of trades (log-scaled), and win rate.
Only SMA configurations that meet the user-defined minimum trade count are considered valid. Among all valid candidates, the script selects the SMA length with the highest robustness score and plots it on the chart.
How to use it:
- Choose the strategy type: "Long Only" or "Buy & Sell"
- Set the minimum trade count to filter out statistically irrelevant results
- Enable or disable the summary stats table (default: enabled)
The selected optimal SMA is plotted on the chart in blue. The optional table in the top-right corner shows the corresponding SMA length, trade count, Profit Factor, Win Rate, and Robustness Score for transparency.
Key Features:
- Exhaustive SMA optimization across 991 values
- Customizable trade direction and minimum trade filters
- In-chart visualization of results via table and plotted optimal SMA
- Uses a custom robustness formula to rank SMA lengths
Use cases:
Ideal for traders who want to backtest and auto-select a historically effective SMA without manual trial-and-error. Useful for swing and trend-following strategies across different timeframes.
📌 Limitations:
- Not a full trading strategy with position sizing or stop-loss logic
- Only one entry per direction at a time is allowed
- Designed for exploration and optimization, not as a ready-to-trade system
This script is open-source and built entirely from original code and logic. It does not replicate any closed-source script or reuse significant external open-source components.
Prime Trend ReactorIntroduction
Prime Trend Reactor is an advanced crypto trend-following strategy designed to deliver precision entries and exits based on a multi-factor trend consensus system.
It combines price action, adaptive moving averages, momentum oscillators, volume analysis, volatility signals, and higher timeframe trend confirmation into a non-repainting, fully systematic approach.
This strategy is original: it builds a unique trend detection matrix by blending multiple forms of price-derived signals through weighted scoring, rather than simply stacking indicators.
It is not a mashup of public indicators — it is engineered from the ground up using custom formulas and strict non-repainting design.
It is optimized for 1-hour crypto charts but can be used across any asset or timeframe.
⚙️ Core Components
Prime Trend Reactor integrates the following custom components:
1. Moving Averages System
Fast EMA (8), Medium EMA (21), Slow EMA (50), Trend EMA (200).
Detects short-term, medium-term, and long-term trend structures.
EMA alignment is scored as part of the trend consensus system.
2. Momentum Oscillators
RSI (Relative Strength Index) with Smoothing.
RMI (Relative Momentum Index) custom-calculated.
Confirms price momentum behavior aligned with trend.
3. Volume Analysis
CMF (Chaikin Money Flow) for accumulation/distribution pressure.
OBV (On Balance Volume) EMA Cross for volume flow confirmation.
4. Volatility and Price Structure
Vortex Indicator (VI+ and VI-) for trend strength and directional bias.
Mean-Extreme Price Engine blends closing price with extremes (high/low) based on user-defined ratio.
5. Structure Breakout Detection
Detects structure breaks based on highest high/lowest low pivots.
Adds weight to trend strength on fresh breakouts.
6. Higher Timeframe Confirmation (HTF)
Uses higher timeframe EMAs and close to confirm macro-trend direction.
Smartly pulls HTF data with barmerge.lookahead_off to avoid repainting.
🔥 Entry and Exit Logic
Long Entry: Triggered when multi-factor trend consensus turns strongly bullish.
Short Entry: Triggered when consensus flips strongly bearish.
Take Profits (TP1/TP2):
TP1: Partial 50% profit at small target.
TP2: Full 100% close at larger target.
Exit on Trend Reversal:
If trend consensus reverses before hitting TP2, the strategy exits early to protect capital.
TP Hits and Trend Reversals fire real-time webhook-compatible alerts.
🧩 Trend Consensus Matrix (Original Concept)
Instead of relying on a single indicator, Prime Trend Reactor calculates a weighted score using:
EMA Alignment
Momentum Oscillators (RSI + RMI)
Volume Analysis
Volatility (Vortex)
Higher Timeframe Bias
Each component adds a weighted contribution to the final trend strength score.
Only when the weighted score exceeds a user-defined threshold does the system allow entries.
This multi-dimensional scoring system is original and engineered specifically to avoid noisy or lagging traditional signals.
📈 Visualization and Dashboard
Custom EMA Clouds dynamically fill between Fast/Medium EMAs.
Colored Candles show real-time trend direction.
Dynamic Dashboard displays:
Current Position (Long/Short/Flat)
Entry Price
TP1 and TP2 Hit Status
Bars Since Entry
Win Rate (%)
Profit Factor
Current Trend Signal
Consensus Score (%)
🛡️ Non-Repainting Design
All trend calculations are based on current and confirmed past data.
HTF confirmations use barmerge.lookahead_off.
No same-bar entries and exits — enforced logic prevents overlap.
No lookahead bias.
Strict variable handling ensures confirmed-only trend state transitions.
✅ 100% TradingView-approved non-repainting behavior.
📣 Alerts and Webhooks
This strategy includes full TradingView webhook support:
Long/Short Entries
TP1 Hit (Partial Exit)
TP2 Hit (Full Exit)
Exit on Trend Reversal
All alerts use constant-string JSON formatting compliant with TradingView multi-exchange bots:

Divergence IQ [TradingIQ]Hello Traders!
Introducing "Divergence IQ"
Divergence IQ lets traders identify divergences between price action and almost ANY TradingView technical indicator. This tool is designed to help you spot potential trend reversals and continuation patterns with a range of configurable features.
Features
Divergence Detection
Detects both regular and hidden divergences for bullish and bearish setups by comparing price movements with changes in the indicator.
Offers two detection methods: one based on classic pivot point analysis and another that provides immediate divergence signals.
Option to use closing prices for divergence detection, allowing you to choose the data that best fits your strategy.
Normalization Options:
Includes multiple normalization techniques such as robust scaling, rolling Z-score, rolling min-max, or no normalization at all.
Adjustable normalization window lets you customize the indicator to suit various market conditions.
Option to display the normalized indicator on the chart for clearer visual comparison.
Allows traders to take indicators that aren't oscillators, and convert them into an oscillator - allowing for better divergence detection.
Simulated Trade Management:
Integrates simulated trade entries and exits based on divergence signals to demonstrate potential trading outcomes.
Customizable exit strategies with options for ATR-based or percentage-based stop loss and profit target settings.
Automatically calculates key trade metrics such as profit percentage, win rate, profit factor, and total trade count.
Visual Enhancements and On-Chart Displays:
Color-coded signals differentiate between bullish, bearish, hidden bullish, and hidden bearish divergence setups.
On-chart labels, lines, and gradient flow visualizations clearly mark divergence signals, entry points, and exit levels.
Configurable settings let you choose whether to display divergence signals on the price chart or in a separate pane.
Performance Metrics Table:
A performance table dynamically displays important statistics like profit, win rate, profit factor, and number of trades.
This feature offers an at-a-glance assessment of how the divergence-based strategy is performing.
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a bullish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a bearish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a hidden bullish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The image above shows Divergence IQ successfully identifying and trading a hidden bearish divergence between an indicator and price action!
The performance table is designed to provide a clear summary of simulated trade results based on divergence setups. You can easily review key metrics to assess the strategy’s effectiveness over different time periods.
Customization and Adaptability
Divergence IQ offers a wide range of configurable settings to tailor the indicator to your personal trading approach. You can adjust the lookback and lookahead periods for pivot detection, select your preferred method for normalization, and modify trade exit parameters to manage risk according to your strategy. The tool’s clear visual elements and comprehensive performance metrics make it a useful addition to your technical analysis toolbox.
The image above shows Divergence IQ identifying divergences between price action and OBV with no normalization technique applied.
While traders can look for divergences between OBV and price, OBV doesn't naturally behave like an oscillator, with no definable upper and lower threshold, OBV can infinitely increase or decrease.
With Divergence IQ's ability to normalize any indicator, traders can normalize non-oscillator technical indicators such as OBV, CVD, MACD, or even a moving average.
In the image above, the "Robust Scaling" normalization technique is selected. Consequently, the output of OBV has changed and is now behaving similar to an oscillator-like technical indicator. This makes spotting divergences between the indicator and price easier and more appropriate.
The three normalization techniques included will change the indicator's final output to be more compatible with divergence detection.
This feature can be used with almost any technical indicator.
Stop Type
Traders can select between ATR based profit targets and stop losses, or percentage based profit targets and stop losses.
The image above shows options for the feature.
Divergence Detection Method
A natural pitfall of divergence trading is that it generally takes several bars to "confirm" a divergence. This makes trading the divergence complicated, because the entry at time of the divergence might look great; however, the divergence wasn't actually signaled until several bars later.
To circumvent this issue, Divergence IQ offers two divergence detection mechanisms.
Pivot Detection
Pivot detection mode is the same as almost every divergence indicator on TradingView. The Pivots High Low indicator is used to detect market/indicator highs and lows and, consequently, divergences.
This method generally finds the "best looking" divergences, but will always take additional time to confirm the divergence.
Immediate Detection
Immediate detection mode attempts to reduce lag between the divergence and its confirmation to as little as possible while avoiding repainting.
Immediate detection mode still uses the Pivots Detection model to find the first high/low of a divergence. However, the most recent high/low does not utilize the Pivot Detection model, and instead immediately looks for a divergence between price and an indicator.
Immediate Detection Mode will always signal a divergence one bar after it's occurred, and traders can set alerts in this mode to be alerted as soon as the divergence occurs.
TradingView Backtester Integration
Divergence IQ is fully compatible with the TradingView backtester!
Divergence IQ isn’t designed to be a “profitable strategy” for users to trade. Instead, the intention of including the backtester is to let users backtest divergence-based trading strategies between the asset on their chart and almost any technical indicator, and to see if divergences have any predictive utility in that market.
So while the backtester is available in Divergence IQ, it’s for users to personally figure out if they should consider a divergence an actionable insight, and not a solicitation that Divergence IQ is a profitable trading strategy. Divergence IQ should be thought of as a Divergence backtesting toolkit, not a full-feature trading strategy.
Strategy Properties Used For Backtest
Initial Capital: $1000 - a realistic amount of starting capital that will resonate with many traders
Amount Per Trade: 5% of equity - a realistic amount of capital to invest relative to portfolio size
Commission: 0.02% - a conservative amount of commission to pay for trade that is standard in crypto trading, and very high for other markets.
Slippage: 1 tick - appropriate for liquid markets, but must be increased in markets with low activity.
Once more, the backtester is meant for traders to personally figure out if divergences are actionable trading signals on the market they wish to trade with the indicator they wish to use.
And that's all!
If you have any cool features you think can benefit Divergence IQ - please feel free to share them!

Beginning: Exit the trade at the first touch of the order block/FVG.
Middle: Exit the trade at the middle of the order block/FVG.
End: Exit the trade at the full completion of the order block/FVG.
Dedicated Field for Setting Fixed % Value
Set a fixed % value in a dedicated field for the Fixed parameter. This field works only for the Fixed parameter. When selecting other exit parameters, this field is ignored.
🟠 ADDITIONAL SETTINGS
Trailing Stop, %
Set a Trailing Stop as a percentage of your trade to potentially increase profit based on historical data.
Move SL to Breakeven, bars
Move your StopLoss to breakeven after exiting the entry zone for a specified number of bars. This can enhance your potential WinRate based on historical performance.
Skip trade if RR less than
This feature allows you to skip trades where the potential Risk-to-Reward ratio is less than the number set in this field.
🟠 EXAMPLE OF MANUAL SETUP
For example, let me show you how it works on the chart. You select entry parameters, stop loss parameters, and take profit parameters for your trades, and the strategy automatically tests this setup on historical data, allowing you to see the results of this strategy.
In the screenshot above, the parameters were as follows:
Trade Entry: CHoCH OB (Beginning)
Stop Loss: Entry Block
Take Profit: Break of BOS
The indicator will automatically test all possible trades on the chart and display the results for this setup.
🟠 AUTO OPTIMIZATION SETTINGS
In the screenshot above, you can see the optimization table displaying various entry points, exits, and stop-loss settings, along with their historical performance results and other parameters. This feature allows you to identify trading setups that have shown the best historical outcomes.
This functionality will enhance your trading approach, providing you with valuable insights based on historical data. You’ll be aware of the Smart Money Concept settings that have historically worked best for any specific chart and timeframe.
Our indicator includes various optimization options designed to help you find the most effective settings based on historical data. There are 5 optimization modes, each offering unique benefits for every trader
Trend Entry - Optimization of the best settings for trend-following trades. The strategy will enter trades only in the direction of the trend. If the trend is upward, it will look for long entry points and vice versa.
Counter Trend Entry - Finding setups against the trend. If the trend is upward, the script will search for short entry points. This is the opposite of trend entry optimization.
Stop Loss - Identifying stop-loss points that showed the best historical performance for the specific setup you have configured. This helps in finding effective exit points to minimize losses.
Take Profit - Determining targets for the configured setup based on historical performance, helping to identify potentially profitable take profit levels.
Trailing Stop - Finding optimal percentages for the trailing stop function based on historical data, which can potentially increase the profit of your trades.
Ability to set parameters for auto-optimization within a specified range. For example, if you choose FixRR TP from 1 to 10, the indicator will automatically test all possible Risk Reward Take Profit variations from 1 to 10 and display the results for each parameter individually.
Ability to set initial deposit parameters, position commissions, and risk per trade as a fixed percentage or fixed amount. Additionally, you can set the maximum leverage for a trade.
There are times when the stop loss is very close to the entry point, and adhering to the risk per trade values set in the settings may not allow for such a loss in any situation. That’s why we added the ability to set the maximum possible leverage, allowing you to test your trading strategy even with very tight stop losses.
Duplicated Smart Money Structure settings from our Advanced SMC indicator that you can adjust to match your trading style flexibly. All these settings will be taken into account during the optimization process or when manually calculating settings.
Additionally, you can test your strategy based on higher timeframe order blocks. For example, you can test a strategy on a 1-minute chart while displaying order blocks from a 15-minute timeframe. The auto-optimizer will consider all these parameters, including higher timeframe order blocks, and will enter trades based on these order blocks.
Highly flexible dashboard and results optimization settings allow you to display the tables you need and sort results by six different criteria: Profit Factor, Profit, Winrate, Max Drawdown, Wins, and Trades. This enables you to find the exact setup you desire, based on these comprehensive data points.
🟠 ALERT CUSTOMIZATION
With this indicator, you can set up buy and sell alerts based on the test results, allowing you to create a comprehensive trading strategy. This feature enables you to receive real-time signals, making it a powerful tool for implementing your trading strategies.
🟠 STRATEGY PROPERTIES
For backtesting, we used realistic initial data for entering trades, such as:
Starting balance: $1000
Commission: 0.01%
Risk per trade: 1%
To ensure realistic data, we used the above settings. We offer two methods for calculating your order size, and in our case, we used a 1% risk per trade. Here’s what it means:
Risk per trade: This is the maximum loss from your deposit if the trade goes against you. The trade volume can change depending on your stop-loss distance from the entry point. Here’s the formula we use to calculate the possible volume for a single trade:
1. quantity = percentage_risk * balance / loss_per_1_contract (incl. fee)
Then, we calculate the maximum allowed volume based on the specified maximum leverage:
2. max_quantity = maxLeverage * balance / entry_price
3. If quantity < max_quantity, meaning the leverage is less than the maximum allowed, we keep quantity. If quantity > max_quantity, we use max_quantity (the maximum allowed volume according to the set leverage).
This way, depending on the stop-loss distance, the position size can vary and be up to 100% of your deposit, but the loss in each trade will not exceed the set percentage, which in our case is 1% for this backtest. This is a standard risk calculation method based on your stop-loss distance.
🔸 Statistical Significance of Trade Data
In our strategy, you may notice there weren’t enough trades to form statistically significant data. This is inherent to the Smart Money Concept (SMC) strategy, where the focus is not on the number of trades but rather on the risk-to-reward ratio per trade. In SMC strategies, it’s crucial to avoid taking numerous uncertain setups and instead perform a comprehensive analysis of the market situation.
Therefore, our strategy results show fewer than 100 trades. It’s important to understand that this small sample size isn’t statistically significant and shouldn’t be relied upon for strategy analysis. Backtesting with a small number of trades should not be used to draw conclusions about the effectiveness of a strategy.
🔸 Versatile Use Cases
The methods of using this indicator are numerous, ranging from identifying potentially the best-performing order blocks on the chart to creating a comprehensive trading strategy based on the data provided by our indicator. We believe that every trader will find a valuable application for this tool, enhancing their entry and exit points in trades.

Risk Reward Optimiser [ChartPrime]█ CONCEPTS
In modern day strategy optimization there are few options when it comes to optimizing a risk reward ratio. Users frequently need to experiment and go through countless permutations in order to tweak, adjust and find optimal in their data.
Therefore we have created the Risk Reward Optimizer.
The Risk Reward Optimizer is a technical tool designed to provide traders with comprehensive insights into their trading strategies.
It offers a range of features and functionalities aimed at enhancing traders' decision-making process.
With a focus on comprehensive data, it is there to help traders quickly and efficiently locate Risk Reward optimums for inbuilt of custom strategies.
█ Internal and external Signals:
The script can optimize risk to reward ratio for any type of signals
You can utilize the following :
🔸Internal signals ➞ We have included a number of common indicators into the optimizer such as:
▫️ Aroon
▫️ AO (Awesome Oscillator)
▫️ RSI (Relative Strength Index)
▫️ MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
▫️ SuperTrend
▫️ Stochastic RSI
▫️ Stochastic
▫️ Moving averages
All these indicators have 3 conditions to generate signals :
Crossover
High Than
Less Than
🔸External signal
▫️ by incorporating your own indicators into the analysis. This flexibility enables you to tailor your strategy to your preferences.
◽️ How to link your signal with the optimizer:
In order to be able to analysis your signal we need to read it and to do so we would need to PLOT your signal with a defined value
plot( YOUR LONG Condition ? 100 : 0 , display = display.data_window)
█ Customizable Risk to Reward Ratios:
This tool allows you to test seven different customizable risk to reward ratios , helping you determine the most suitable risk-reward balance for your trading strategy. This data-driven approach takes the guesswork out of setting stop-loss and take-profit levels.
█ Comprehensive Data Analysis:
The tool provides a table displaying key metrics, including:
Total trades
Wins
Losses
Profit factor
Win rate
Profit and loss (PNL)
This data is essential for refining your trading strategy.
🔸 It includes a tooltip for each risk to reward ratio which gives data for the:
Most Profitable Trade USD value
Most Profitable Trade % value
Most Profitable Trade Bar Index
Most Profitable Trade Time (When it occurred)
Position and size is adjustable
█ Visual insights with histograms:
Visualize your trading performance with histograms displaying each risk to reward ratio trade space, showing total trades, wins, losses, and the ratio of profitable trades.
This visual representation helps you understand the strengths and weaknesses of your strategy.
It offers tooltips for each RR ratio with the average win and loss percentages for further analysis.
█ Dynamic Highlighting:
A drop-down menu allows you to highlight the maximum values of critical metrics such as:
Profit factor
Win rate
PNL
for quick identification of successful setups.
█ Stop Loss Flexibility:
You can adjust stop-loss levels using three different calculation methods:
ATR
Pivot
VWAP
This allows you to align risk-reward ratios with your preferred risk tolerance.
█ Chart Integration:
Visualize your trades directly on your price chart, with each trade displayed in a distinct color for easy tracking.
When your take-profit (TP) level is reached , the tool labels the corresponding risk-reward ratio for that specific TP, simplifying trade management.
█ Detailed Tooltips:
Tooltips provide deeper insights into your trading performance. They include information about the most profitable trade, such as the time it occurred, the bar index, and the percentage gain. Histogram tooltips also offer average win and loss percentages for further analysis.

In summary, the Risk Reward Optimizer is a data-driven tool that offers traders the ability to optimize their risk-reward ratios, refine their strategies, and gain a deeper understanding of their trading performance. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or investor, this tool can help you make informed decisions and improve your trading outcomes.
Customizable Non-Repainting HTF MACD MFI Scalper Bot Strategy v2Customizable Non-Repainting HTF MACD MFI Scalper Bot Strategy v2
This script was originally shared by Wunderbit as a free open source script for the community to work with. This is my second published iteration of this idea.
WHAT THIS SCRIPT DOES:
It is intended for use on an algorithmic bot trading platform but can be used for scalping and manual trading.
This strategy is based on the trend-following momentum indicator . It includes the Money Flow index as an additional point for entry.
This is a new and improved version geared for lower timeframes (15-5 minutes), but can be run on larger ones as well. I am testing it live as my high frequency trader.
HOW IT DOES IT:
It uses a combination of MACD and MFI indicators to create entry signals. Parameters for each indicator have been surfaced for user configurability.
Take profits are now trailing profits, and the stop loss is now fixed. Why? I found that the trailing stop loss with ATR in the previous version yields very good results for back tests but becomes very difficult to deploy live due to transaction fees. As you can see the average trade is a higher profit percentage than the previous version.
HOW IS MY VERSION ORIGINAL:
Now instead of using ATR stop loss, we have a fixed stop loss - counter intuitively to what some may believe this performs better in live trading scenarios since it gives the strategy room to move. I noticed that the ATR trailing stop was stopping out too fast and was eating away balance due to transaction fees.
The take profit on the other hand is now a trailing profit with a customizable deviation. This ensures that you can have a minimum profit you want to take in order to exit.
I have depracated the old ATR trailing stop as it became too confusing to have those as different options. I kept the old version for others that want to experiment with it. The source code still requires some cleanup, but its fully functional.
I added in a way to show RSI values and ATR values with a checkbox so that you can use the new an improved ATR Filter (and grab the right RSI values for the RSI filter). This will help to filter out times of very low volatility where we are unlikely to find a profitable trade. Use the "Show Data" checkbox to see what the values are on the indicator pane, then use those values to gauge what you want to filter out.
Both versions
Delayed Signals : The script has been refactored to use a time frame drop down. The higher time frame can be run on a faster chart (recommended on one minute chart for fastest signal confirmation and relay to algotrading platform.)
Repainting Issues : All indicators have been recoded to use the security function that checks to see if the current calculation is in realtime, if it is, then it uses the previous bar for calculation. If you are still experiencing repainting issues based on intended (or non intended use), please provide a report with screenshot and explanation so I can try to address.
Filtering : I have added to additional filters an ABOVE EMA Filter and a BELOW RSI Filter (both can be turned on and off)
Customizable Long and Close Messages : This allows someone to use the script for algorithmic trading without having to alter code. It also means you can use one indicator for all of your different alterts required for your bots.
HOW TO USE IT:
It is intended to be used in the 5-30 minute time frames, but you might be able to get a good configuration for higher time frames. I welcome feedback from other users on what they have found.
Find a pair with high volatility (example KUCOIN:ETH3LUSDT ) - I have found it works particularly well with 3L and 3S tokens for crypto. although it the limitation is that confrigurations I have found to work typically have low R/R ratio, but very high win rate and profit factor.
Ideally set one minute chart for bots, but you can use other charts for manual trading. The signal will be delayed by one bar but I have found configurations that still test well.
Select a time frame in configuration for your indicator calculations.
Select the strategy config for time frame (resolution). I like to use 5 and 15 minutes for scalping scenarios, but I am interested in hearing back from other community memebers.
Optimize your indicator without filters : customize your settings for MACD and MFI that are profitable with your chart and selected time frame calculation. Try different Take Profits (try about 2-5%) and stop loss (try about 5-8%). See if your back test is profitable and continue to optimize.
Use the Trend, RSI, ATR Filter to further refine your signals for entry. You will get less entries but you can increase your win ratio.
You can use the open and close messages for a platform integration, but I choose to set mine up on the destination platform and let the platform close it. With certain platforms you cannot be sure what your entry point actually was compared to Trading View due to slippage and timing, so I let the platform decide when it is actually profitable.
Limitations: this works rather well for short term, and does some good forward testing but back testing large data sets is a problem when switching from very small time frame to large time frame. For instance, finding a configuration that works on a one minute chart but then changing to a 1 hour chart means you lose some of your intra bar calclulations. There are some new features in pine script which might be able to address, this, but I have not had a chance to work on that issue.
Premium Planning Tool V1.0Background to the tool
The tool was built out of frustration. Having traded for many years with a reasonable level of success I was always frustrated that my trading never went up a level. The world of trading is filled with people having so much more success than me and this level of FOMO really bothered me and resulted in inconsistency and countless hours sitting in front of a screen, hoping for the best. I also became a little bit of an indicator junkie - was there a holy grail indicator out there for me? I always felt that as a retail trader I was behind the curve. I started to investigate how the major market participants trade and make money and I was astounded at the level of success that they get from creating strategies and sticking to it. The market is driven largely by a "black boxes" which, for us retail traders are outside of our ability to access. I wanted to build a tool that could give me a traders edge.
Another factor that has always bothered me was when reading investing books there is a general assumption that a standard entry, say 8/13 cross over, works on all stocks. However, it is not the case and it can be frustrating for a trader using a set up and not realizing that the set up is the problem, not the trader. This realization alone has made a huge impact on my trading. The big boxes that control the market know this already.
Also, a lot of indicators that are available don’t take advantage of the backtesting capability provided in Tradingview. It is fairly simple to find 8-9 trades where a set up worked and then fall into the trade of assuming that it cannot fail. Knowing which set ups work and how frequently it will print will change the way that you trade.
The goal with the tool is to identify setups that have worked in the past with a high degree of profitability, high profit factor and low drawdown and using the planning tool allows you to customize the setup to find exactly what you are looking for across any tradeable asset on TradingView.
Over the past 20 years I have realized the following:
1) Not all entries and signals work the same on all stocks
2) Not having a plan in advance lowers your probability of success
3) Developing consistency in analysis is critical
4) Developing confidence in your own plan is more important than whose trades you try to copy
5) Having 30 indicators does not help you trade better - it leads to more frustration
So here is the product of these realisations:
1) The tool looks across the most common entry strategies (MA cross on 5 dimensions of type and 5 common crossovers) and can be used on 19 different time frames giving you guidance on what the best set up is for the stock you are analysing
2) It incorporates volatility into the strategy – when stocks are trading outside of a predetermined volatility band, a trade will not be entered. This accommodates traders who tend to get shaken out of trades too early.
3) It looks at the impact of “buying the dip” – often a common strategy employed by many traders which now can be backtested and reviewed to see if it actually helped or hindered the trade.
4) It measures your trade plan against your R – what you are willing to risk – and calculates your target profit based on your R multiple
5) It provides a non repaint signal on your base strategy and provides you with signals to trade smaller or shorter signals within the bigger strategy.
There are some additional visual tools:
• Squeeze signals - I am a big fan of the TTM squeeze however the Squeeze by itself can be hard to trade. Seeing a squeeze fire long on a chart can add to trade confidence.
• Seeing zones of support and resistance rather than single lines can also give you some leeway in terms of not getting pushed out of a trade too soon.
The backtester is always reviewed on a 2 to 3 year period to get an understanding of win rate %, profit ratio and average duration of trade. As an option trader knowing that a high probability move is playing out allows me to make sure that I don’t undercut the time frame for the expiration of the option relative to the historical average duration of a trade. Backtesting on shorter times is unrealistic.
Key benefits
1) It saves me a ton of time. I don’t have to sit in front of a screen watching ticks each day. I can plan for an entry, set an alert for a trade and when the conditions are met the TradingView system sends me a message and I will go and confirm a trade, execute it, set my alerts for control and move on with my life.
2) It allows me to review trade ideas in a consistent manner using the best trade plan and set up for a stock.
3) It forces me to be patient and not panic (always a good thing). With an adjustable volatility feature I can modify the volatility band in the trade plan to accommodate choppy market conditions.
4) It looks at both sides of the market (long and short) and you can calculate the impact of being market neutral or having a directional bias.
The setup is based on a reversal set up and we are doing a single entry trade here with a base of 4ATR stop using a long call or a bull call debit spread and allowing GOOGL to trade on a 1ATR price band on a daily basis. This strategy has only generated 10 signals since 2018 however it has been profitable 87.5% of the time with a profit factor of 25.26. Personally, on signals with this degree of strength I will trade a long stock purchase on a STRATEGY ENTRY signal and I will look to trade shorter duration option trades (both debit and credit spreads) on the trend signals INSIDE the major buy signal.
As a high probability set up you can trade this signal by itself or you can trade the trend inside the signal which will trigger at 2966. Either way, set your alerts and get on with your life.
I hope this tool helps you to achieve some degree of peace in your trading.

72s Strat: Backtesting Adaptive HMA+ pt.1This is a follow up to my previous publication of Adaptive HMA+ few months ago, as a mean to provide some kind of initial backtesting tools. Which can be use to explore many possible strategies, optimise its settings to better conform user's pair/tf, and hopefully able to help tweaking your general strategy.
If you haven't read the study or use the indicator, kindly go here first to get the overall idea.
The first strategy introduce in this backtest is one most basic already described in the study; buy/sell is when movement is there and everything is on the right side; When RSI has turned to other side, we can use it as exit point (if in profit of course, else just let it hit our TP/SL, why would we exit before profit). Also, base on RSI when we make entry, we can further differentiate type of signals. --Please check all comments in code directly where the signals , entries , and exits section are.
Second additional strategy to check; is when we also use second faster Adaptive HMA+ for exit. So this is like a double orders on a signal but with different exit-rule (/more on this on snapshots below). Alternatively, you can also work the code so to only use this type of exit.
There's also an additional feature which you can enable its visuals, the Distance Zone , is to help measuring price distance to our xHMA+. It's just a simple atr based envelope really, I already put the sample code in study's comment section, but better gonna update it there directly for non-coder too, after this.
In this sample I use Lot for order quantity size just because that's what I use on my broker. Also what few friends use while we forward-testing it since the study is published, so we also checked/compared each profit/loss report by real number. To use default or other unit of measurement, change the entry code accordingly.
If you change your order size, you should also change the commission in Properties Tab. My broker commission is 5 USD per order/lot, so in there with example order size 0.1 lot I put commission 0.5$ per order (I'll put 2.5$ for 0.5 lot, 10$ for 2 lot, and so on). Crypto usually has higher charge. --It is important that you should fill it base on your broker.
SETTINGS
I'm trying to keep it short. Please explore it further again. (Beginner should also first get acquaintance with terms use here.)
ORDERS:
Base Minimum Profit Before Exit:
The number is multiplier of ongoing ATR. Means that when basic exit condition is met, algo will check whether you're already in minimum profit or not, if not, let it still run to TP or SL, or until it meets subsequent exit condition, then it will check again.
Default Target Profit:
Multiplier of ATR at signal. If reached before any eligible exit condition is met, exit TP.
Base StopLoss Point:
You can change directly in code to use other like ATR Trailing SL, fix percent SL, or whatever. In the sample, 4 options provided.
Maximum StopLoss:
This is like a safety-net, that if at some point your chosen SL point from input above happens to be exceeding this maximum input that you can tolerate, then this max point is the one will be use as SL.
Activate 2nd order...:
The additional doubling of certain buy/sell with different exits as described above. If enable, you should also set pyramiding to at least: 2. If not, it does nothing.
ADAPTIVE HMA+ PERIOD
Many users already have their own settings for these. So in here I only sample the default as first presented in the study. Make it to your adaptive.
MARKET MOVEMENT
(1) Now you can check in realtime how much slope degree is best to define your specific pair/tf is out of congestion (yellow) area. And (2) also able to check directly what ATR lengths are more suitable defining your pair's volatility.
DISTANCE ZONE
Distance Multiplier. Each pair/tf has its own best distance zone (in xHMA+ perspective). The zone also determine whether a signal should appear or not. (Or what type of signal, if you wanna go more detail in constructing your strategy)
USAGE
(Provided you already have your own comfortable settings for minimum-maximum period of Adaptive HMA+. Best if you already have backtested it manually too and/or apply as an add-on to your working strategy)
1. In our experiences, first most important to define is both elements in the Market Movement Settings . These also tend to be persistent for whole season since it's kinda describing that pair/tf overall behaviour. Don't worry if you still get a low Profit Factor here, but by tweaking you should start to see positive changes in one of Max Drawdown and Net Profit, or Percent Profitable.
2. Afterwards, find your pair/tf Distance Zone . When optimising this, what we seek is just a "not to bad" equity curves to start forming. At least Max Drawdown should lessen more. Doesn't have to be great already, but should be better, no red in Net Profit.
3. Then go manage the "Trailing Minimum Profit", TP, SL, and max SL.
4. Repeat 1,2,3. 👻
5. Manage order size, commission, and/or enable double-order (need pyramiding) if you like. Check if your equity can handle max drawdown before margin call.
6. After getting an acceptable backtest result, go to List of Trades tab and find the biggest loss or when many sequencing loss in a row happened. Click on it to go to exact point on chart, observe why the signal failed and get at least general idea how it can be prevented . The rest is yours, you should know your pair/tf more than other.
You can also re-explore your minimum-maximum period for both Major and minor xHMA+.
Keep in mind that all numbers in Setting are conceptually in a form of range . You don't want to get superb equity curves but actually a "fragile" , means one can easily turn it to disaster just by changing only a fraction in one/two of the setting.
---
If you just wanna test the strength of the indicator alone, you can disable "Use StopLoss" temporarily while optimising settings.
Using no SL might be tempting in overall result data in some cases, but NOTE: It is not recommended to not using SL, don't forget that we deliberately enter when it's in high volatility. If want to add flexibility or trading for long-term, just maximise your SL. ie.: chose SL Point>ATR only and set it maximum. (Check your max drawdown after this).
I think this is quite important specially for beginners, so here's an example; Hypothetically in below scenario, because of some settings, the buy order after the loss sell signal didn't appear. Let's say if our initial capital only 1000$ using leverage and order size 0,5 lot (risky position sizing already), moreover if this happens at the beginning of your trading season, that's half of account gone already in one trade . Your max SL should've made you exit after that pumping bar.
The Trailing Minimum Profit is actually look like this. Search in the code if you want to plot it. I just don't like too many lines on chart.
To maximise profit we can try enabling double-order. The only added rule coded is: RSI should rising when buy and falling when sell. 2nd signal will appears above or below default buy/sell signal. (Of course it's also prone to double-loss, re-check your max drawdown after. Profit factor play its part in here for a long run). Snapshot in comparison:
Two default sell signals on left closed at RSI exit, the additional sell signal closed later on when price crossover minor xHMA+. On buy side, price haven't met our minimum profit when first crossunder minor xHMA+. If later on we hit SL on this "+buy" signal, at least we already profited from default buy signal. You can also consider/treat this as multiple TP points.
For longer-term trading, what you need to maximise is the Minimum Profit , so it won't exit whenever an exit condition happened, it can happen several times before reaching minimum profit. Hopefully this snapshot can explain:
Notice in comparison default sell and buy signal now close in average after 3 days. What's best is when we also have confirmation from higher TF. It's like targeting higher TF by entering from smaller TF.
As also mention in the study, we can still experiment via original HMA by putting same value for minimum-maximum period setting. This is experimental EU 1H with Major xHMA+: 144-144, Flat market 13, Distance multiplier 3.6, with 2nd order activated.
Kiwi was a bit surprising for me. It's flat market is effectively below 6, with quite far distance zone of 3.5. Probably because I'm using big numbers in adaptive period.
---
The result you see in strategy tester report below for EURUSD 15m is using just default settings you see in code, as follow:
0,1 lot for each order (which is the smallest allowed by my broker).
No pyramiding. Commission: 0.5 usd per order. Slippage: 3
Opening position is only using basic strategy #1 (RSI exit). Additional exit not activated.
Minimum Profit: 1. TP: 3.
SL use: Half-distance zone. Max SL: 4.5.
Major xHMA+: 172-233. minor xHMA+: 89-121
Distance Zone Multiplier: 2.7
RSI: Standard 14.
(From our forward-testing, the difference we get from net profit is because of the spread, our entry isn't exactly at the close/open price. Not so much though, but not the same. If somebody can direct me to any example where we can code our entry via current bid/ask price, that would be awesome!)
It's already a long post (sorry), think I'm gonna pause here. Check out the code :)

EMA Crossover StrategyEMA Crossover Strategy
This strategy will enter a long trade when the 21 EMA crosses over the 55 EMA and both EMAs and the close price are above the 200 EMA (long-term trend).
It will enter a short trade when the 21 EMA crosses under the 55 EMA and both EMAs and the close price are below the 200 EMA.
It will exit a long trade when the RSI crosses under from overbought and indicates that the uptrend could be coming to an end.
It will exit a short trade when the RSI crosses over from oversold and indicates that the downtrend could be coming to an end.
Backtesting shows that it works best on:

DH: (Study) Super Smart SuperTrend: Self AdjustingSUPER SMART SUPERTREND (Study Version w/Alerts)
Using data from other indicators I came up with a SMART SUPERTREND that auto-adjusts as the market changes - shall we call it "Artificial Intelligence?" Yes, you can fine tune it for specific assets and timeframes, but once the settings are entered, it auto-adjusts as the market and prices evolve.
This is the STUDY version of "Super Smart SuperTrend" with ALERTS. There is also a STRATEGY version which is designed for backtesting various settings.
STRATEGY VERSION FOR BACKTESTING IS HERE
ABOUT THIS INDICATOR
As the name suggests, 'Supertrend' is a trend-following indicator that is notably popular here on Tradingview and elsewhere. It does a remarkably great job of recognizing a trend (in progress) and it will signal you to initiate a position when the trend is clear. Perhaps the greater value of Supertrend is that it helps keep you in your position until that trend is over.
WHAT'S THE BEST ATR PERIOD AND MULTIPLIER?
There are two important data points we must enter for Supertrend to work, namely the 'period (ATR number of candles or days)' and the 'multiplier (value by which ATR is multiplied)' BTW, in case you don't know, ATR signals the degree of price volatility. A common default setting is 10 for the ATR period and 3 for the multiplier.
SORRY, BUT THE MOVIE STARTED HALF HOUR AGO...
Unfortunately Supertrend has a couple of big weaknesses. Generally, it fails in a sideways-moving market and when it does detect a trend, the signal to get in (or out) comes rather late. It's like someone telling you about a great movie they're watching, but by the time you start watching, one-third of the movie is over... bummer, right?
HOW TO IMPROVE SUPERTREND
One solution is to combine Supertrend with other indicators such as MACD, Parabolic SAR, RSI, etc. And another solution is to experiment (backtest) with the Period and Multiplier settings for the asset and timeframe you are considering for trade.
For the STANDARD SETTINGS in this "Super Smart SuperTrend" indicator, I have set 9 for the ATR and 2.2 for the multiplier as default after backtesting on Bitcoin and other crypto (mostly in the 15 minute to 6 HOUR timeframe). Of course you can change this easily to any ATR period and Multiplier you like.
BUT... WHY NOT GET SMART?
I started thinking, it might be best if we let the market determine candle-by-candle what the settings should be. If everyone says that Supertrend works best in conjunction with other indicators, why not do our "conjuncting" programmatically (ie: automatically) sorta like artificial intelligence!
HOW IT WORKS
So here's what I did. Using data from other indicators I came up with a SMART SUPERTREND that auto-adjusts as the market changes. It still has settings so you can fine tune it for specific assets and timeframes, but once the settings are entered, it auto-adjusts as the market and prices evolve.
With "Super Smart SuperTrend" there is no ATR period setting (that is determined programmatically) and now there are TWO multipliers you can experiment with... (a lower one set at 1.7 default and a higher one at 2.5). These multiplier settings create a multiplier range that can be used programmatically to adjust the multiplier as the market and prices evolve.
THE RESULTS
Across all time frames and assets I've tested, I generally get better results. Better entries, better exits and well defined trends. In comparison with a STANDARD Supertrend, it is not radically different, but when it does differ "Super Smart SuperTrend: is almost always better. All this is substantiated by backtesting of course.

AlphaTrend Strategy-Dexter📌 AlphaTrend Strategy – Brief Description
The AlphaTrend Strategy uses ATR with RSI/MFI filters to build a dynamic trend line.
Buy when AlphaTrend crosses above its past value (trend up).
Sell when AlphaTrend crosses below its past value (trend down).
Works as a trend-following system, but can whipsaw in sideways markets.
📊 Backtest Summary (Nifty 50, 10-min TF)
Period: Aug 19, 2024 – Sep 11, 2025
Metric Value
Total P&L ₹5,595.65 (+0.56%)
Total Trades 230
Win Rate 42.61%
Profit Factor 1.40
Max Equity Drawdown ₹1,704.15 (0.17%)
Sharpe Ratio -1.80 ❌
Sortino Ratio -0.87 ❌
⚠️ Observations & Risks
Profit Factor > 1 → profitable but thin edge.
Negative Sharpe & Sortino → risk-adjusted performance is poor (high volatility, low consistency).
Low Win Rate (42%) → depends heavily on a few big winners.
No Stop Loss / Take Profit → exposes account to streaks of losses.
Works better in trending markets, fails in choppy/sideways conditions.
✅ Caution: The system makes money on paper, but the risk profile is weak. Use strict money management and additional filters (higher timeframe trend or volume confirmation) before considering it live.

Candlestick Patterns Backtester [Optimized]Candlestick Patterns Backtester
What this is: This indicator is based on a really cool candlestick pattern backtester that I found (I'll update this later when I remember where I got it from or find the actual author). The original had this massive table showing win/loss ratios for a bunch of candlestick patterns, and according to the built-in backtester, it was actually profitable - which was pretty impressive.
The Problem: I played around with the original for a while but honestly wasn't really able to get it to work well at all for actual trading. It was still pretty cool to look at though! The main issues were:
It was just a big static table - hard to do anything useful with it
Couldn't send signals out to other strategies
The code was a monster - like 2,000+ lines of repetitive mess
What I Did: I completely refactored this thing and got it down from 2,000+ lines to just a few hundred lines. Much cleaner now! Here's what it does:
45+ Candlestick Patterns - All the classics are in there
Dynamic Filtering - Set your own requirements (minimum win rate, profit factor, total trades, etc.)
Flexible Logic - Choose AND/OR logic for your filters
Signal Generation - Creates actual buy/sell signals you can use with other strategies
Visual Badges - Shows pattern badges on chart when they meet your criteria
Active Patterns Table - Only shows patterns that are currently profitable based on your settings
Settings You Can Adjust:
Minimum win rate threshold
Minimum profit factor
Minimum number of trades required
Whether to use AND or OR logic for filtering
Colors, badge display, debug options
Reality Check: Trading these patterns really wasn't for me, but it was still a great learning experience. The backtesting results look good on paper, but as always, past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Use this as a research tool and educational resource more than anything else.
Credit: This is based on someone else's original work that I heavily modified and optimized. I'll update this description once I track down the original author to give proper credit where it's due.
This introduction captures your casual, honest tone while explaining the technical improvements you made and setting realistic expectations about the indicator's practical use.
Bollinger Bands Oscillator | QuantMAC📊 Bollinger Bands Oscillator | QuantMAC
🎯 Overview
The Bollinger Bands Oscillator is a sophisticated technical analysis tool that combines the power of traditional Bollinger Bands with an oscillator-based approach for enhanced signal generation. This indicator transforms the classic Bollinger Bands into a percentage-based oscillator, providing clearer entry and exit signals for both trending and ranging markets.
🔧 Key Features
Dual Trading Modes : Choose between Long/Short or Long/Cash strategies
Advanced BB% Calculation : Enhanced Bollinger Band percentage with customizable multipliers
Comprehensive Metrics : Built-in performance analytics including Sharpe Ratio, Sortino Ratio, and Profit Factor
Visual Color Coding : Dynamic bar coloring and 9 different color schemes for optimal chart visibility
Date Range Filtering : Backtest specific time periods with customizable start dates
Real-time Signal Generation : Clear long and short entry signals with threshold customization
Advanced Risk Management : Half Kelly criterion calculation for optimal position sizing
📈 How It Works
The indicator operates by calculating a modified Bollinger Band percentage that oscillates between values, typically ranging from 0 to 100+. When the BB% crosses above the Long Threshold (default: 83), it generates a bullish signal. Conversely, when it crosses below the Short Threshold (default: 55), it produces a bearish signal.
Core Calculation Process:
Calculate the moving average basis using the specified Base Length (default: 40 periods)
Determine standard deviation using a separate SD Length (default: 27 periods)
Create upper and lower bands using the SD Multiplier (default: 2.6)
Convert to percentage oscillator with BB% Multiplier (default: 100)
Generate signals based on threshold crossovers
⚙️ Customizable Parameters
BMD Settings:
Base Length : Controls the moving average period (default: 40)
Standard Deviation Length : Determines volatility calculation period (default: 27)
SD Multiplier : Adjusts band width sensitivity (default: 2.6)
BB% Multiplier : Scales the oscillator values (default: 100)
Source : Choose price source (close, open, high, low, etc.)
Signal Thresholds:
Long Threshold : Entry level for bullish positions (default: 83)
Short Threshold : Entry level for bearish positions (default: 55)
🎨 Visual Elements
Main Chart Overlay:
Bollinger Bands : Upper and lower bands with customizable colors and transparency
Middle Line : Basis line displayed as subtle dots
Band Fill : Colored area between bands for easy visualization
Bar Coloring : Candles change color based on current signal state
Separate Oscillator Pane:
BB% Line : Main oscillator line with dynamic coloring
Threshold Lines : Horizontal lines marking entry/exit levels
Color Coding : Line colors change based on bullish/bearish state
📊 Performance Metrics
The indicator includes a comprehensive metrics table displaying:
Net Profit % : Total return percentage
Max Drawdown % : Maximum peak-to-trough decline
Win Rate % : Percentage of profitable trades
Profit Factor : Ratio of gross profit to gross loss
Sharpe Ratio : Risk-adjusted return measure
Sortino Ratio : Downside risk-adjusted return
Omega Ratio : Probability-weighted ratio of gains vs losses
Half Kelly % : Optimal position sizing recommendation
Total Trades : Number of completed transactions
🎯 Trading Strategies
Long/Short Mode: 🔄
The indicator alternates between long and short positions based on threshold crossovers. This mode is ideal for traders who can profit from both rising and falling markets.
Long/Cash Mode: 💰
This conservative approach only takes long positions, moving to cash during bearish signals. Perfect for traders in accounts that don't allow short selling or those preferring a buy-and-hold approach with strategic exits.
🚀 Getting Started
Add the indicator to your chart
Choose your preferred Trading Mode (Long/Short or Long/Cash)
Adjust the Base Length and SD Length to match your trading timeframe
Fine-tune the Long Threshold and Short Threshold based on your risk tolerance
Select your preferred color scheme from 9 available options
Enable the metrics table to monitor performance in real-time
💡 Pro Tips
Lower thresholds (e.g., Long: 75, Short: 60) generate more frequent but potentially less reliable signals
Higher thresholds (e.g., Long: 90, Short: 45) produce fewer but potentially higher-quality signals
Shorter base lengths make the indicator more responsive to recent price action
Longer base lengths smooth out noise but may lag market turns
Use the Half Kelly % metric to guide position sizing decisions
⚠️ Important Disclaimers

Trend Shift Trend Shift – Precision Trend Strategy with TP1/TP2 and Webhook Alerts
Trend Shift is an original, non-repainting algorithmic trading strategy designed for 1H crypto charts, combining trend, momentum, volume compression, and price structure filters. It uses real-time components and avoids repainting, while supporting webhook alerts, customizable dashboard display, and multi-level take-profit exits.
🔍 How It Works
The strategy uses a multi-layered system:
📊 Trend Filters
McGinley Baseline: Adaptive non-lagging baseline to define overall trend.
White Line Bias: Midpoint of recent high/low range to assess directional bias.
Tether Lines (Fast/Slow): Price structure-based cloud for trend validation.
📉 Momentum Confirmation
ZLEMA + CCI: Combines Zero Lag EMA smoothing with Commodity Channel Index slope to confirm strong directional movement.
💥 Volatility Squeeze
TTM Squeeze Logic: Detects low-volatility compression zones (BB inside KC) to anticipate breakout direction.
📈 Vortex Strength
Confirms sustained price movement with a threshold-based Vortex differential.
⚠️ Trap Filters
Wick Trap Detection: Prevents entries on manipulative candle structures (false breakouts).
🔄 Exit Timing
Uses ZLEMA slope as a weak-trend exit mechanism to get out before reversals.
🎯 Take-Profit Logic
TP1: Closes 50% of the position at a configurable profit target.
TP2: Closes remaining 100% of the position at a second target.
Full position closure is enforced before any new trade begins.
A 1-bar cooldown ensures no same-bar reversals occur.

You said:
thats good keep all of it but you need to explaine its not just a mash up of indicators it an origional designe
ChatGPT said:
Absolutely — here's the revised and fully TradingView-compliant description with your request integrated. It now clearly explains that Trend Shift is not just a mashup, but an original, structured algorithm:
📈 Trend Shift – Precision Trend Strategy with TP1/TP2 and Webhook Alerts
Trend Shift is a fully original and carefully engineered algorithmic trading strategy — not just a mash-up of common indicators. It is purpose-built for high-accuracy crypto trend trading on the 1H timeframe using a layered decision framework. Every component has a defined role in identifying high-probability trades while avoiding lag and false signals. The logic has been rigorously tested to ensure non-repainting, stable behavior, and clear entry/exit timing — with support for webhook automation and customizable dashboards.
🔍 How It Works (Component Roles)
This strategy is constructed from custom logic blocks, not a random combination of standard tools:
📊 Trend Filters (Foundation)
McGinley Dynamic Baseline: Smooths price with adaptive logic — better than EMA for live crypto trends.
White Line Bias (Original Midpoint Logic): Midpoint of recent high/low range — provides bias without lag.
Tether Lines (Fast/Slow): Act as structure-based confirmation of trend health and direction.
📉 Momentum Confirmation
ZLEMA-smoothed CCI Momentum: Uses zero-lag smoothing and CCI slope steepness to confirm trend strength and direction. This combo is highly responsive and original in design.
💥 Volatility Breakout Detection
TTM Squeeze Logic (Custom Threshold Logic): Confirms volatility contraction and directional momentum before breakouts — not just raw BB/KC overlap.
📈 Vortex Strength Confirmation
Uses a threshold-filtered differential of Vortex Up/Down to confirm strong directional moves. Avoids trend entries during weak or sideways conditions.
⚠️ Trap Filter (Original Logic)
Wick Trap Detection: Prevents entries on likely fakeouts by analyzing wick-to-body ratio and previous candle positioning. This is custom-built and unique.
🔄 Smart Exit Logic
ZLEMA Slope Exit Filter: Identifies early signs of trend weakening to exit trades ahead of reversals — an original adaptive method, not a basic cross.
🎯 Take-Profit Structure
TP1: Closes 50% at a customizable first target.
TP2: Closes remaining 100% at a second target.
No overlapping trades. Reentry is delayed by 1 bar to prevent same-bar reversals and improve backtest accuracy.
🖥️ Live Trading Dashboard
Toggleable, repositionable UI showing:
Current Position (Long, Short, Flat)

🔔 Webhook Alerts Included
Entry: Long & Short
Take Profits: TP1 & TP2 for Long/Short
Exits: Based on ZLEMA trend weakening logic
Alerts are JSON-formatted for webhook integration with bots or alert services.
🛠️ Originality Statement
This script is not a mashup. Every component — from Tether Line confirmation to wick traps and slope-based exits — is custom-constructed and combined into a cohesive trading engine. No reused indicator templates. No repainting. No guesswork. Each filter complements the others to reduce risk, not stack lag.
⚠️ Important Notes
100% Non-Repainting

Williams R Zone Scalper v1.0[BullByte]Originality & Usefulness
Unlike standard Williams R cross-over scripts, this strategy layers five dynamic filters—moving-average trend, Supertrend, Choppiness Index, Bollinger Band Width, and volume validation —and presents a real-time dashboard with equity, PnL, filter status, and key indicator values. No other public Pine script combines these elements with toggleable filters and a custom dashboard. In backtests (BTC/USD (Binance), 5 min, 24 Mar 2025 → 28 Apr 2025), adding these filters turned a –2.09 % standalone Williams R into a +5.05 % net winner while cutting maximum drawdown in half.
---
What This Script Does
- Monitors Williams R (length 14) for overbought/oversold reversals.
- Applies up to five dynamic filters to confirm trend strength and volatility direction:
- Moving average (SMA/EMA/WMA/HMA)
- Supertrend line
- Choppiness Index (CI)
- Bollinger Band Width (BBW)
- Volume vs. its 50-period MA
- Plots blue arrows for Long entries (R crosses above –80 + all filters green) and red arrows for Short entries (R crosses below –20 + all filters green).
- Optionally sets dynamic ATR-based stop-loss (1.5×ATR) and take-profit (2×ATR).
- Shows a dashboard box with current position, equity, PnL, filter status, and real-time Williams R / MA/volume values.

Common Questions
- * Why not trade every Williams R reversal?*
Raw Williams R whipsaws in sideways markets. Choppiness and volume filters reduce false entries.
- *Can I use on 1 min or 15 min?*
Yes—adjust ATR length or thresholds accordingly. Defaults target 5 min scalping.
- *What if all filters are on?*
Fewer arrows, higher-quality signals. Expect ~10 % boost in average win size.

Baseline Optimizer NNFX [m8b]DESCRIPTION
The Baseline Optimizer indicator is a tool to aid in baseline configuration (specifically moving averages). It manages state across iterations within a single bar to allow the indicator to test different settings. This allows the user to find a specific configuration that works well for that asset and timeframe. It also recreates pieces of the default TradingView backtesting framework so multiple settings can be tested concurrently.
Originality and usefulness
Default pine script doesn't allow for state management within a loop due to the way historical values are handled (e.g. EMA). It also does not allow for backtesting across multiple settings concurrently. The the functions are all unique in that they allow for proper state management during the optimization process.
ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND AND USAGE
While the platform is built to support the NNFX way of trading, this indicator can be utilized by any trader who wants to optimize an MA for a specific asset, chart, or time frame regardless of asset class.
NNFX revolves around a systematic approach to trading, designed to be mechanical and with minimal discretionary input. This strategy typically involves multiple indicators across different categories to confirm trading signals. The approach involves:
Baseline indicator to determine the overall trend direction
Confirmation (Leading & Lagging) indicator used to validate the trade
Volume indicator to confirm the presence of market participation
Exit indicator to signal when to close the trade
Supported Moving Averages
v1 (this indicator): ALMA, DEMA, EMA, HMA, KAMA, RMA / SMMA, SMA, Tilson T3, TEMA, WMA, VWMA
USAGE
By default, this indicator will run on “Standard” mode, and acts as a roll-up of MAs. Simply set the MA type and length.
When mode is set to “Optimizer”, a table will appear on the chart that displays trade stats for the various configurations.
Net Profit, Closed Trades, % Profitable, Profit Factor, Max Drawdown, Avg Trade, Avg Bars
STANDARD SETTINGS
MA Type: ALMA, DEMA, EMA, HMA, KAMA, RMA, SMA, T3, TEMA, WMA, VWMA
MA Length: Length of the MA
MA: Source: Source for the MA
OPTIMIZER SETTINGS
Profit factor threshold: Acts as a filter to the trading stats to make it more readable
% profitable threshold: Acts as a filter to the trading stats to make it more readable
Min trades threshold: Acts as a filter to the trading stats to make it more readable
Start & End Date: The data window for the optimizer to backtest
Trade Direction: All, Long only, Short Only
Pyramid Max: Works the same as standard TradingView pyramid
Optimizer Param Start: The first value for the optimizer
Optimizer Param End: The end value for the optimizer
Optimizer Param Step: The step value for the optimizer
Stats green threshold: The value to turn results green
Stats red threshold: The value to turn results red
IMPORTANT NOTES (Errors & Pine Limitations)
Warm-up Period Multiplier: "Warming up" refers to the period where the indicator begins to reflect accurate and meaningful data. A default value of 5 should generally ensure baseline data is accurate. If performance is an issue (e.g. timeouts), this can be adjusted down at the cost of accuracy. While this may not be ideal, for the purposes of optimization the results should be directionally accurate in most cases with lower values. If you see the stats changing in real-time in the results, that’s often a good indicator your warm-up is too short. Note, the EMA in particular requires a long warm-up due to its nature (~3 x length)
Timeouts: Depending on your TradingView plan, scripts will either timeout after 20 or 40 seconds. If you get too aggressive with either timeframes or Start/End/Step, you may timeout. THIS IS NOT A BUG, it’s a limitation of TradingView and/or your plan. The fixes for this are 1) test less states at a time 2) use a higher timeframe 3) get a Premium TradingView Plan.
Array Size / Memory Size: This should rarely be an issue with baseline optimization, BUT if you get really aggressive with settings (particularly on the T3) you could run into a scenario with Pine reaches/exceeds the limitation of an array size (100,000). If this happens, reduce your timeframe or input param values to resolve.

Power Trend v1.0Background to the tool
The tool was built out of frustration. Having traded for many years with a reasonable level of success I was always frustrated that my trading never went up a level. The world of trading is filled with people having so much more success than me and this level of FOMO really bothered me and resulted in inconsistency and countless hours sitting in front of a screen, hoping for the best. I also became a little bit of an indicator junkie - was there a holy grail indicator out there for me? I always felt that as a retail trader I was behind the curve. I started to investigate how the major market participants trade and make money and I was astounded at the level of success that they get from creating strategies and sticking to it. The market is driven largely by a "black boxes" which, for us retail traders are outside of our ability to access. I wanted to build a tool that could give me a traders edge.
Another factor that has always bothered me was when reading investing books there is a general assumption that a standard entry, say 8/13 cross over, works on all stocks. However, it is not the case and it can be frustrating for a trader using a set up and not realizing that the set up was/is the problem, not the trader. This realization alone has made a huge impact on my trading. The big boxes that control the market know this already.
Also, a lot of indicators that are available don’t take advantage of the backtesting capability provided in Tradingview. It is fairly simple to find 8-9 trades where a set up worked and then fall into the trade of assuming that it cannot fail. Knowing which set ups work and how frequently it will print will change the way that you trade.
The goal with the tool is to identify setups that have worked in the past with a high degree of profitability, high profit factor and low drawdown and using the planning tool allows you to customize the setup to find exactly what you are looking for across any tradeable asset on TradingView.
Over the past 20 years I have realized the following:
1) Not all entries and signals work the same on all stocks and knowing the historical performance of a strategy is critical
2) Not having a plan in advance lowers your probability of success
3) Developing consistency in analysis is critical
4) Developing confidence in your own plan is more important than whose trades you try to copy
5) Having 30 indicators does not help you trade better - it leads to more frustration
So here is the product of these realisations:
1) The tool looks across the most common entry strategies (RMA / EMA / SMA / HMA / WMA cross on 5 dimensions of type and 5 common crossovers) and can be used on 19 different time frames giving you guidance on what the best set up is for the stock you are analysing
2) It incorporates volatility into the strategy – when stocks are trading outside of a predetermined volatility band, a trade will not be entered. This accommodates traders who tend to get shaken out of trades too early.
3) It looks at the impact of “buying the dip” – often a common strategy employed by many traders which now can be backtested and reviewed to see if it actually helped or hindered the trade.
4) It measures your trade plan against your R – what you are willing to risk – and calculates your target profit based on your R multiple
5) It provides a non repaint signal on your base strategy and provides you with signals to trade smaller or shorter signals within the bigger strategy.
There are some additional visual tools:
• Squeeze signals - I am a big fan of the TTM squeeze however the Squeeze by itself can be hard to trade. Seeing a squeeze fire long on a chart can add to trade confidence.
• Seeing zones of support and resistance rather than single lines can also give you some leeway in terms of not getting pushed out of a trade too soon.
The backtester is always reviewed on a multi year period to get an understanding of win rate %, profit ratio and average duration of trade. As an option trader knowing that a high probability move is playing out allows me to make sure that I don’t undercut the time frame for the expiration of the option relative to the historical average duration of a trade. Backtesting on shorter times is unrealistic.
Key benefits
1) It will save you a ton of time. I don’t have to sit in front of a screen watching ticks each day. I can plan for an entry, set an alert for a trade and when the conditions are met the TradingView system sends me a message and I will go and confirm a trade, execute it, set my alerts for control and move on with my life.
2) It allows me to review trade ideas in a consistent manner using the best trade plan and set up for a stock.
3) It forces me to be patient and not panic (always a good thing). With an adjustable volatility feature I can modify the volatility band in the trade plan to accommodate choppy market conditions.
4) It looks at both sides of the market (long and short) and you can calculate the impact of being market neutral or having a directional bias.
I hope this tool helps you to achieve some degree of peace in your trading.
