Ultimate📖 Indicator Description – Ultimate
The Ultimate Indicator is a complete charting framework that combines linear regression channels, dynamic deviation bands, EMA ribbons, volatility spreads, and entry/exit markers. It is designed to help traders visualize trend direction, potential reversals, and trade setups with precision.
🔹 What You See on the Chart
Channel Lines (Linear Regression Bands)
Green dotted line (median): Fair value trendline based on regression.
Red dashed line (upper band): Dynamic resistance zone.
Blue dashed line (lower band): Dynamic support zone.
Mid-bands (thin dotted red/blue): Halfway between median and outer bands, useful for scaling entries or partial exits.
🔹 EMA Ribbon (Light Green Shades)
Multiple EMAs (5, 8, 13, 21, 34) plotted in progressively lighter green.
Helps visualize momentum shifts and trend strength.
Ribbon turns more aqua/green when short-term EMAs align bullishly.
🙌Markers on Price
🔴 Red Circle (Dot): Short entry signal (price rejecting upper deviation band).
🔵 Blue Circle (Dot): Long entry signal (price bouncing off lower deviation band).
❌ Red X: Peak formation detected, potential short setup (not always valid).
🔷 Blue Diamond: Trough formation detected, potential long setup (not always valid).
Numbers Above/Below Candles
🔴Red numbers (above peaks): % spread from the bottom to the peak, showing upward volatility.
🔵 Blue numbers (below troughs): % spread from the top to the trough, showing downward volatility.
These values help traders gauge the strength of recent swings and compare volatility expansions.
🔹 Signal Logic🔹
🔵Long Signal (Blue Circle):
Forms when price makes a trough and crosses back above the lower regression band.
Confirms potential upside reversal with stop-loss guided by ATR or swing low.
🔴Short Signal (Red Circle):
Forms when price makes a peak and crosses below the upper regression band.
Confirms potential downside reversal with stop-loss guided by ATR or swing high.
❌ Peaks (Red X):
Indicate local tops. Not all peaks convert into shorts, but they warn of resistance zones.
🔹Troughs (Blue Diamonds):
Indicate local bottoms. Not all troughs convert into longs, but they warn of support zones.
🔹 Alerts
When a valid long or short setup is confirmed, an alert fires with:
Ticker name
Entry price
Suggested position size (Quantity)
Stop loss level (ATR-based or HL-based)
Take profit level (calculated by reward multiple)
🔹 Inputs & Customization
Quantity: Lot size suggestion.
Deviation: Multiplier for regression channel width.
Take Profit: Risk-to-reward multiplier.
Stop Loss: ATR or High/Low based.
Trend Lines: Choose between extended or fixed channels.
Period: Lookback window for regression.
Spread Percentages: Toggle volatility labels on/off.
🔹 How to Use
Trend Following: Ride price inside the channel using EMA ribbon alignment.
Reversal Trading: Enter at deviation extremes with confirmation signals.
Volatility Mapping: Use spread % labels to measure the strength of market swings.
Risk Management: ATR-based stops adapt to volatility, while HL stops give structural support/resistance.
✅ In summary:
The Ultimate Indicator is not just a regression channel—it’s a multi-layered system that highlights trend bias, entry/exit signals, volatility spreads, and adaptive risk levels. It allows traders to see at a glance whether the market is trending, ranging, or preparing for a reversal.

Turtle Trading System IndicatorKey Features & Components
Donchian Channels
The core of the indicator is the Donchian Channel, represented by the upper and lower blue bands.
Upper Channel: The highest price over a user-defined period.
Lower Channel: The lowest price over the same period.
Middle Line: The midpoint between the upper and lower channels.
These channels are used to identify potential breakouts, which form the basis for trade entries.
Trading Signals
The script automatically generates clear, non-repainting signals for potential trades:
Long Entry (Green ▲): A green upward-facing triangle appears below the candle when the closing price breaks above the upper Donchian channel, signaling the start of a potential uptrend.
Short Entry (Red ▼): A red downward-facing triangle appears above the candle when the closing price breaks below the lower Donchian channel, signaling the start of a potential downtrend.
Long Exit (Green X): A green cross appears above the candle when the price crosses below the middle line, suggesting the uptrend is weakening.
Short Exit (Orange X): An orange cross appears below the candle when the price crosses above the middle line, suggesting the downtrend is losing momentum.
Integrated Risk Management
A crucial element of the Turtle strategy is disciplined risk management, which is built into this indicator.
Volatility-Based Position Sizing
You can enable position sizing that adapts to market volatility using the Average True Range (ATR). When an entry signal occurs, a label appears showing a calculated position size unit. The formula aims to normalize risk, meaning you would trade smaller sizes in volatile markets and larger sizes in calmer markets. The formula used is:
Volatility Unit=
100
Risk %
×
4×ATR
Close Price
Dynamic Stop Loss
Upon a long or short entry, a stop-loss level is plotted on the chart as red circles. This level is calculated based on the ATR, automatically adjusting to the market's current volatility to provide a data-driven exit point for managing losses. It is calculated as:
Long Stop: Close Price - 1.8 * ATR
Short Stop: Close Price + 1.8 * ATR
On-Chart Information Panel
A convenient table is displayed in the bottom-right corner of the chart, showing the current ATR value and the calculated Position Size unit for quick and easy reference.
Customizable Settings
You can tailor the indicator to your specific strategy and risk tolerance:
Donchian Channel Period: Sets the lookback period for the channels. The default is 20. Shorter periods will be more sensitive and generate more signals.
ATR Period: Sets the lookback period for the Average True Range calculation, affecting both position size and stop-loss levels. The default is 14.
Risk Percentage: The percentage of equity you wish to risk per trade. This directly influences the position size calculation.
Use Volatility Position Sizing: A simple checkbox to turn the ATR-based position sizing on or off.

Risk Distribution HistogramStatistical risk visualization and analysis tool for any ticker 📊
The Risk Distribution Histogram visualizes the statistical distribution of different risk metrics for any financial instrument. It converts risk data into histograms with quartile-based color coding, so that traders can understand their risk, tail-risks, exposure patterns and make data-driven decisions based on empirical evidence rather than assumptions.
The indicator supports multiple risk calculation methods, each designed for different aspects of market analysis, from general volatility assessment to tail risk analysis.
Risk Measurement Methods
Standard Deviation
Captures raw daily price volatility by measuring the dispersion of price movements. Ideal for understanding overall market conditions and timing volatility-based strategies.
Use case: Options trading and volatility analysis.
Average True Range (ATR)
Measures true range as a percentage of price, accounting for gaps and limit moves. Valuable for position sizing across different price levels.
Use case: Position sizing and stop-loss placement.
The chart above illustrates how ATR statistical distribution can be used by looking at the ATR % of price distribution. For example, 90% of the movements are below 5%.
Downside Deviation
Only considers negative price movements, making it ideal for checking downside risk and capital protection rather than capturing upside volatility.
Use case: Downside protection strategies and stop losses.
Drawdown Analysis
Tracks peak-to-trough declines, providing insight into maximum loss potential during different market conditions.
Use case: Risk management and capital preservation.
The chart above illustrates tale risk for the asset (TQQQ), showing that it is possible to have drawdowns higher than 20%.
Entropy-Based Risk (EVaR)
Uses information theory to quantify market uncertainty. Higher entropy values indicate more unpredictable price action, valuable for detecting regime changes.
Use case: Advanced risk modeling and tail-risk.
VIX Histogram
Incorporates the market's fear index directly into analysis, showing how current volatility expectations compare to historical patterns. The CAPITALCOM:VIX histogram is independent from the ticker on the chart.
Use case: Volatility trading and market timing.
Visual Features
The histogram uses quartile-based color coding that immediately shows where current risk levels stand relative to historical patterns:
Green (Q1): Low Risk (0-25th percentile)
Yellow (Q2): Medium-Low Risk (25-50th percentile)
Orange (Q3): Medium-High Risk (50-75th percentile)
Red (Q4): High Risk (75-100th percentile)
The data table provides detailed statistics, including:
Count Distribution: Historical observations in each bin
PMF: Percentage probability for each risk level
CDF: Cumulative probability up to each level
Current Risk Marker: Shows your current position in the distribution
Trading Applications
When current risk falls into upper quartiles (Q3 or Q4), it signals conditions are riskier than 50-75% of historical observations. This guides position sizing and portfolio adjustments.
Key applications:
Position sizing based on empirical risk distributions
Monitoring risk regime changes over time
Comparing risk patterns across timeframes
Risk distribution analysis improves trade timing by identifying when market conditions favor specific strategies.
Enter positions during low-risk periods (Q1)
Reduce exposure in high-risk periods (Q4)
Use percentile rankings for dynamic stop-loss placement
Time volatility strategies using distribution patterns
Detect regime shifts through distribution changes
Compare current conditions to historical benchmarks
Identify outlier events in tail regions
Validate quantitative models with empirical data
Configuration Options
Data Collection
Lookback Period: Control amount of historical data analyzed
Date Range Filtering: Focus on specific market periods
Sample Size Validation: Automatic reliability warnings
Histogram Customization
Bin Count: 10-50 bins for different detail levels
Auto/Manual Bin Width: Optimize for your data range
Visual Preferences: Custom colors and font sizes
Implementation Guide
Start with Standard Deviation on daily charts for the most intuitive introduction to distribution-based risk analysis.
Method Selection: Begin with Standard Deviation
Setup: Use daily charts with 20-30 bins
Interpretation: Focus on quartile transitions as signals
Monitoring: Track distribution changes for regime detection
The tool provides comprehensive statistics including mean, standard deviation, quartiles, and current position metrics like Z-score and percentile ranking.

Capital Risk OptimizerCapital Risk Optimizer 🛡️
The Capital Risk Optimizer is an educational tool designed to help traders study capital efficiency, risk management, and scaling strategies when using leverage.
This script calculates and visualizes essential metrics for managing leveraged positions, including:
Entry Price – The current market price.
Stop Loss Level – Automatically derived using the 30-bar lowest low minus 1 ATR (default: 14-period ATR), an approach designed to create a dynamic, volatility-adjusted stop loss.
Stop Loss Distance (%) – The percentage distance between entry and stop.
Maximum Safe Leverage – The highest leverage allowable without risking liquidation before your stop is reached.
Margin Required – The amount of collateral necessary to support the desired position size at the calculated leverage.
Position Size – The configurable notional value of your trade.
These outputs are presented in a clean, customizable table overlay so you can quickly understand how position sizing, volatility, and leverage interact.
By default, the script uses a 14-period ATR combined with the lowest low of the past 30 bars, providing an optimal balance between sensitivity and noise for defining stop placement. This methodology helps traders account for market volatility in a systematic way.
The Capital Risk Optimizer is particularly useful as a portfolio management tool, supporting traders who want to study how to scale into positions using risk-adjusted sizing and capital efficiency principles. It pairs best with backtested strategies, and does not directly produce signals of any kind.
How to Use:
Set your desired position size.
Adjust the ATR and lookback settings to fine-tune stop loss placement.
Study the resulting leverage and margin requirements in real time.
Use this information to simulate and visualize potential trade scenarios and capital allocation models.

Micro Futures Contract Calculator Micro Futures Contract Calculator
Synopsis: The Micro Futures Contract Calculator is a sleek, minimalist indicator that calculates the number of Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100 (MNQ) or S&P 500 (MES) contracts you can trade based on a fixed dollar risk and stop-loss (in ticks). Displayed in a compact, professional table in the top-right corner, it shows your risk, stop-loss, contract type, and calculated contracts, helping traders maintain consistent risk management.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart (search “Micro Futures Contract Calculator”).
In settings, input:
Maximum Risk ($): Your total risk per trade (e.g., $100).
Stop-Loss (Ticks): Stop-loss size in ticks (e.g., 20 ticks = 5 points).
Contract Type: Select MNQ or MES.
Check the top-right table for:
Risk, stop-loss, contract type, and number of contracts (e.g., “10” for MNQ, “4” for MES).
Use the contract number to size trades, ensuring risk stays fixed.
Why Standardized Risk is Important:
Consistency: Fixed risk per trade (e.g., $100) prevents oversized losses, stabilizing long-term performance.
Discipline: Removes emotional guesswork, enforcing a systematic approach across MNQ/MES trades.
Capital Protection: Limits exposure, preserving your account during losing streaks and volatile markets.
Scalability: Aligns position sizing with your risk tolerance, enabling confident scaling as your account grows.
This indicator simplifies risk management, making it essential for disciplined futures trading.
Risk and Position Sizing📏 Why Position Size Should Be Based on Risk?
Let’s say you are ready to lose 1,000 in a trade. Based on your stop loss level, you can calculate how many shares (or quantity) to buy, so that if the stop hits, you only lose that ₹1,000.
This is called risk-based position sizing. It makes your trade size dynamic — small when SL is wide, bigger when SL is tight. No more random position sizes — just systematic.
Portfolio size is multiplied by the selected risk % to get money risk per trade.
This amount is then used to calculate how many shares can be bought for the given stop-loss.
So chose your portfolio size in settings. Default Portfolio size is 1,00,000 .
You can select your risk % per portfolio in the settings — for example:
0.25% for conservative style
0.5% to 1% for balanced traders
1.25% or 1.5% for aggressive ones (not recommended for beginners)
This script will automatically calculate how much quantity you should buy, for each stop-loss scenario.
📈 Progressive & Inverse-Progressive Risk Styles
Some traders follow progressive position sizing — they start with small risk when the trend is just starting, and increase the risk % as the trend confirms.
Others follow inverse-progressive sizing — they take high risk at early stages of a bull market, and reduce risk as the trend matures (when upside becomes limited).
📌 This script allows you to manually control the risk % in settings, so you can adjust it based on your trading phase and style.
📋 Three SL Scenarios – Choose What Matches Your Style
The table shows three different stop-loss conditions, and for each one it calculates:
Today’s Low – tightest stop loss
Yesterday’s Low – slightly safer, ideal for short-term swing trades
EMA Stop (configurable) – gives more breathing room.
You can visually compare all 3 in the table and choose whichever fits your strategy and comfort.
Also, you can customize:
Theme: dark or light
Font size
Table position (upper/lower corners)
🧠 Designed for traders who take risk management seriously.
Let this script handle the math. You focus on execution.
Happy Trading!

Math by Thomas Liquidity PoolDescription
Math by Thomas Liquidity Pool is a TradingView indicator designed to visually identify potential liquidity pools on the chart by detecting areas where price forms clusters of equal highs or equal lows.
Bullish Liquidity Pools (Green Boxes): Marked below price where two adjacent candles have similar lows within a specified difference, indicating potential demand zones or stop loss clusters below support.
Bearish Liquidity Pools (Red Boxes): Marked above price where two adjacent candles have similar highs within the difference threshold, indicating potential supply zones or stop loss clusters above resistance.
This tool helps traders spot areas where smart money might hunt stop losses or where price is likely to react, providing valuable insight for trade entries, exits, and risk management.
Features:
Adjustable box height (vertical range) in points.
Adjustable maximum difference threshold between candle highs/lows to consider them equal.
Boxes automatically extend forward for visibility and delete when price sweeps through or after a defined lifetime.
Separate visual zones for bullish and bearish liquidity with customizable colors.
How to Use
Add the Indicator to your chart (preferably on instruments like Nifty where point-based thresholds are meaningful).
Adjust Inputs:
Box Height: Set the vertical size of the liquidity zones (default 15 points).
Max Difference Between Highs/Lows: Set the max price difference to consider two candle highs or lows as “equal” (default 10 points).
Box Lifetime: How many bars the box stays visible if not swept (default 120 bars).
Interpret Boxes:
Green Boxes (Bullish Liquidity Pools): Areas of potential demand and stop loss clusters below price. Watch for price bounces or accumulation near these zones.
Red Boxes (Bearish Liquidity Pools): Areas of potential supply and stop loss clusters above price. Watch for price rejections or distribution near these zones.
Trading Strategy Tips:
Use these zones to anticipate where stop loss hunting or liquidity sweeps may occur.
Combine with your Order Block, Fair Value Gap, and Market Structure tools for higher probability setups.
Manage risk by avoiding entries into price regions just before large liquidity pools get swept.
Automatic Cleanup:
Boxes delete automatically once price breaks above (for bearish zones) or below (for bullish zones) the zone or after the set lifetime.

Customizable Interface: Provides the flexibility to place the calculation table in different chart positions (Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right) according to user preference.
How to Use:
Enter your total Account Size.
Set the desired Position Size as a percentage of your account. (Typically, 1%–5% per trade is recommended for cash accounts.)
Define the Risk per Trade percentage (commonly between 0.05%–0.5%).
Choose your preferred Table Position to comfortably integrate with your trading chart.
Note:
If you identify a technical support level below the suggested stop-loss point, consider reducing your position size to manage the increased risk effectively.
Keep in mind that the calculations provided by this indicator are based solely on standard industry best practices and the specific inputs entered by you. They do not account for market volatility, news events, or any other factors outside the provided parameters. Always complement this indicator with sound technical and fundamental analysis.

Multi-Timeframe PSAR Indicator ver 1.0Enhance your trend analysis with the Multi-Timeframe Parabolic SAR (MTF PSAR) indicator! This powerful tool displays the Parabolic SAR (Stop and Reverse) from both the current chart's timeframe and a higher timeframe, all in one convenient view. Identify potential trend reversals and set dynamic trailing stops with greater confidence by understanding the broader market context.
Key Features:
Dual Timeframe Analysis: Simultaneously visualize the PSAR on your current chart and a user-defined higher timeframe (e.g., see the Daily PSAR while trading on the 1-hour chart). This helps you align your trades with the dominant trend.
Customizable PSAR Settings: Fine-tune the PSAR calculation with adjustable Start, Increment, and Maximum values. Optimize the indicator's sensitivity to match your trading style and the volatility of the asset.
Independent Timeframe Control: Choose to display either or both the current timeframe PSAR and the higher timeframe PSAR. Focus on the information most relevant to your analysis.
Clear Visual Representation: Distinct colors for the current and higher timeframe PSAR dots make it easy to differentiate between the two. Quickly identify potential entry and exit points.
Configurable Colors You can easily change colors of Current and HTF PSAR.
Standard PSAR Logic: Uses the classic Parabolic SAR algorithm, providing a reliable and widely-understood trend-following indicator.
lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_off used in the security function, there is no data leak or repainting.
Benefits:
Improved Trend Identification: Spot potential trend changes earlier by observing divergences between the current and higher timeframe PSAR.
Enhanced Risk Management: Use the PSAR as a dynamic trailing stop-loss to protect profits and limit potential losses.
Greater Trading Confidence: Make more informed decisions by considering the broader market trend.
Reduced Chart Clutter: Avoid the need to switch between multiple charts to analyze different timeframes.
Versatile Application: Suitable for various trading styles (swing trading, day trading, trend following) and markets (stocks, forex, crypto, etc.).
How to Use:
Add to Chart: Add the "Multi-Timeframe PSAR" indicator to your TradingView chart.
Configure Settings:
PSAR Settings: Adjust the Start, Increment, and Maximum values to control the PSAR's sensitivity.
Multi-Timeframe Settings: Select the desired "Higher Timeframe PSAR" resolution (e.g., "D" for Daily). Enable or disable the display of the current and/or higher timeframe PSAR using the checkboxes.
Interpret Signals:
Current Timeframe PSAR: Dots below the price suggest an uptrend; dots above the price suggest a downtrend.
Higher Timeframe PSAR: Provides context for the overall trend. Agreement between the current and higher timeframe PSAR strengthens the trend signal. Divergences may indicate potential reversals.
Trade Management:
Use PSAR dots as dynamic trailing stop.
Example Use Cases:
Confirming Trend Strength: A trader on a 1-hour chart sees the 1-hour PSAR flip bullish (dots below the price). They check the MTF PSAR and see that the Daily PSAR is also bullish, confirming the strength of the uptrend.
Identifying Potential Reversals: A trader sees the current timeframe PSAR flip bearish, but the higher timeframe PSAR remains bullish. This divergence could signal a potential pullback within a larger uptrend, or a warning of a more significant reversal.
Trailing Stops: A trader enters a long position and uses the current timeframe PSAR as a trailing stop, moving their stop-loss up as the PSAR dots rise.
Disclaimer: The Parabolic SAR is a lagging indicator and may produce false signals, especially in ranging markets. It is recommended to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and risk management strategies. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Overall Functionality
This script combines several trading tools to create a comprehensive system for trend analysis, trade execution, and performance tracking. Users can identify market trends using specific moving averages and RSI indicators while managing profit and loss levels automatically.
Trend Detection and Trade Signals
Hull Moving Averages (HMA):
Two HMAs (a faster one and a slower one) are used to determine the market trend.
A buy signal is generated when the faster HMA crosses above the slower HMA.
Conversely, a sell signal is triggered when the faster HMA crosses below the slower one.
Visual Feedback:
Trend lines on the chart change color to reflect the trend direction (e.g., green for upward trends and red for downward trends).
Trade Levels and Management
Entry, Take-Profit, and Stop-Loss Levels:
When the trend shifts upwards, the script calculates entry, take-profit, and stop-loss levels based on the opening price.
Similarly, for downward trends, these levels are determined for short trades.
Commission Tracking:
Each trade includes a commission cost, which is factored into net profit and loss calculations.
Dynamic Labels:
Entry, take-profit, and stop-loss levels are visually marked on the chart for easier tracking.
Performance Tracking
Profit and Loss Tracking:
The script keeps a running total of profits, losses, and commissions for both long and short trades.
It also calculates the net profit after all costs are considered.
Performance Table:
A table is displayed on the chart summarizing:
The number of trades.
Total profit and loss for long and short positions.
Commission costs.
Net profit.
Fractal Support and Resistance
Dynamic Lines:
The script identifies the most recent significant highs and lows using fractals.
It draws support and resistance lines that automatically update as new fractals form.
Simplified Visuals:
The chart always shows the last two support and resistance lines, keeping the visualization clean and focused.
RSI-Based Signals
Overbought and Oversold Levels:
RSI is used to identify overbought (above 80) and oversold (below 20) conditions.
The script generates buy signals at oversold levels and sell signals at overbought levels.
Chart Indicators:
Arrows and labels appear on the chart to highlight these RSI-based opportunities.
Customization
The script allows users to customize key parameters such as:
Moving average lengths for trend detection.
Take-profit and stop-loss percentages.
Timeframes for backtesting.
Starting capital and commission rates.
Conclusion
This script is a versatile tool for traders, combining trend detection, automated trade management, and visual feedback. It simplifies decision-making by providing clear signals and tracking performance metrics, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced traders.
* The most recently drawn fractals represent potential support and resistance levels. If the price aligns with these levels at the time of entering a trade, it may indicate a likelihood of reversal. In such cases, it’s advisable to either avoid entering the trade altogether or proceed with increased caution.

ATT Model with Buy/Sell SignalsIndicator Summary
This indicator is based on the ATT (Arithmetic Time Theory) model, using specific turning points derived from the ATT sequence (3, 11, 17, 29, 41, 47, 53, 59) to identify potential market reversals. It also integrates the RSI (Relative Strength Index) to confirm overbought and oversold conditions, triggering buy and sell signals when conditions align with the ATT sequence and RSI level.
Turning Points: Detected based on the ATT sequence applied to bar count. This suggests high-probability areas where the market could turn.
RSI Filter: Adds strength to the signals by ensuring buy signals occur when RSI is oversold (<30) and sell signals when RSI is overbought (>70).
Max Signals Per Session: Limits signals to two per session to reduce over-trading.
Entry Criteria
Buy Signal: Enter a buy trade if:
The indicator displays a green "BUY" marker.
RSI is below the oversold level (default <30), suggesting a potential upward reversal.
Sell Signal: Enter a sell trade if:
The indicator displays a red "SELL" marker.
RSI is above the overbought level (default >70), indicating a potential downward reversal.
Exit Criteria
Take Profit (TP):
Define TP as a fixed percentage or point value based on the asset's volatility. For example, set TP at 1.5-2x the risk, or a predefined point target (like 50-100 points).
Alternatively, exit the position when price approaches a key support/resistance level or the next significant swing high/low.
Stop Loss (SL):
Place the SL below the recent low (for buys) or above the recent high (for sells).
Set a fixed SL in points or percentage based on the asset’s average movement range, like an ATR-based stop, or limit it to a specific risk amount per trade (1-2% of account).
Trailing into Profit
Use a trailing strategy to lock in profits and let winning trades run further. Two main options:
ATR Trailing Stop:
Set the trailing stop based on the ATR (Average True Range), adjusting every time a new candle closes. This can help in volatile markets by keeping the stop at a consistent distance based on recent price movement.
Break-Even and Partial Profits:
When the price moves in your favor by a set amount (e.g., 1:1 risk/reward), move SL to the entry (break-even).
Take partial profit at intermediate levels (e.g., 50% at 1:1 RR) and trail the remainder.
Risk Management for Prop Firm Evaluation
Prop firms often have strict rules on daily loss limits, max drawdowns, and minimum profit targets. Here’s how to align your strategy with these:
Limit Risk per Trade:
Keep risk per trade to a conservative level (e.g., 1% or lower of your account balance). This allows for more room in case of a drawdown and aligns with most prop firm requirements.
Daily Loss Limits:
Set a daily stop-loss that ensures you don’t exceed the firm’s rules. For example, if the daily limit is 5%, stop trading once you reach a 3-4% drawdown.
Avoid Over-Trading:
Stick to the max signals per session rule (one or two trades). Taking only high-probability setups reduces emotional and reactive trades, preserving capital.
Stick to a Profit Target:
Aim to meet the evaluation’s profit goal efficiently but avoid risky or oversized trades to reach it faster.
Avoid Major Economic Events:
News events can disrupt technical setups. Avoid trading around significant releases (like FOMC or NFP) to reduce the chance of sudden losses due to high volatility.
Summary
Using this strategy with discipline, a structured entry/exit approach, and tight risk management can maximize your chances of passing a prop firm evaluation. The ATT model’s turning points, combined with the RSI, provide an edge by highlighting reversal zones, while limiting trades to 1-2 per session helps maintain controlled risk.

Example Trading Strategy Using This Indicator
To effectively use this indicator as part of your trading strategy, follow these detailed steps:
Setup:
Timeframe : Select a timeframe that aligns with your trading style (e.g., 15-minute for intraday, 1-hour for swing trading, or daily for longer-term positions).
Indicator Settings : Customize the Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD parameters to suit your trading approach. Adjust overbought/oversold levels to match your risk tolerance.
Strategy:
1. Strong Buy Entry Criteria :
Wait for a strong buy signal (green label) when the RSI is at or below the oversold level (e.g., ≤ 35), indicating a deeply oversold market. Confirm that the MACD shows a decreasing trend (bearish momentum weakening) to validate a potential reversal. Ensure the current candle is green (close > open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : On a 1-hour chart, if the RSI drops below 35, MACD shows three consecutive bars of decreasing negative momentum, and a green candle forms, enter a buy position. This setup signals a robust entry with strong momentum backing it.
2. Weak Buy Entry Criteria :
Monitor for weak buy signals (blue label) when RSI is above the oversold level but still below the neutral (e.g., between 36 and 50). This indicates a market recovering from an oversold state but not fully reversing yet. These signals can be used for early entries with additional confirmations, such as support levels or higher timeframe trends.
Example Use : On the same 1-hour chart, if RSI is at 45, the MACD shows momentum stabilizing (not necessarily negative), and a green candle appears, consider a partial or cautious entry. Use this as an early warning for a potential bullish move, especially when higher timeframe indicators align.
3. Strong Sell Entry Criteria :
Look for a strong sell signal (red label) when RSI is at or above the overbought level (e.g., ≥ 65), signaling a strong overbought condition. The MACD should show three consecutive bars of increasing positive momentum to indicate that the bullish trend is weakening. Ensure the current candle is red (close < open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : If RSI reaches 70, MACD shows increasing momentum that starts to level off, and a red candle forms on a 1-hour chart, initiate a short position with a stop loss set above recent resistance. This is a high-confidence signal for potential price reversal or pullback.
4. Weak Sell Entry Criteria :
Use weak sell signals (orange label) when RSI is between the neutral and overbought levels (e.g., between 50 and 64). These can indicate potential short opportunities that might not yet be fully mature but are worth monitoring. Look for other confirmations like resistance levels or trendline touches to strengthen the signal.
Example Use : If RSI reads 60 on a 1-hour chart, and the MACD shows slight positive momentum with signs of slowing down, place a cautious sell position or scale out of existing long positions. This setup allows you to prepare for a possible downtrend.
Trade Management:
Stop Loss : For buy trades, place stop losses below recent swing lows. For sell trades, set stops above recent swing highs to manage risk effectively.
Take Profit : Target nearby resistance or support levels, apply risk-to-reward ratios (e.g., 1:2), or use trailing stops to lock in profits as price moves in your favor.
Confirmation : Align these signals with broader trends on higher timeframes. For example, if you receive a weak buy signal on a 15-minute chart, check the 1-hour or daily chart to ensure the overall trend is not bearish.
Real-World Example: Imagine trading on a 15-minute chart :
For a buy:
A strong buy signal (green) appears when the RSI dips to 32, MACD shows declining bearish momentum, and a green candle forms. Enter a buy position with a stop loss below the most recent support level.
Alternatively, a weak buy signal (blue) appears when RSI is at 47. Use this as a signal to start monitoring the market closely or enter a smaller position if other indicators (like support and volume analysis) align.
For a sell:
A strong sell signal (red) with RSI at 72 and a red candle signals to short with conviction. Place your stop loss just above the last peak.
A weak sell signal (orange) with RSI at 62 might prompt caution but can still be acted on if confirmed by declining volume or touching a resistance level.
These strategies show how to blend both strong and weak signals into your trading for more nuanced decision-making.
Technical Analysis of the Code
1. Stochastic RSI Calculation:
The script calculates the Stochastic RSI (stochRsiK) using the RSI as input and smooths it with a moving average (stochRsiD).
Code Explanation : ta.stoch(rsi, rsi, rsi, stochLength) computes the Stochastic RSI, and ta.sma(stochRsiK, stochSmoothing) applies smoothing.
2. RSI Calculation :
The RSI is computed over a user-defined period and checks for overbought or oversold conditions.
Code Explanation : rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsiLength) calculates RSI values.
3. MACD Trend Filter :
MACD is calculated with fast, slow, and signal lengths, identifying trends via three consecutive bars moving in the same direction.
Code Explanation : = ta.macd(close, macdLengthFast, macdLengthSlow, macdSignalLength) sets MACD values. Conditions like macdLine < macdLine confirm trends.
4. Buy and Sell Conditions :
The script checks Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD values to set buy/sell flags. Candle color filters further confirm valid entries.
Code Explanation : buyConditionMet and sellConditionMet logically check all conditions and toggles (enableStochCondition, enableRSICondition, etc.).
5. Signal Flags and Confirmation :
Flags track when conditions are met and ensure signals only appear on appropriate candle colors.
Code Explanation : Conditional blocks (if statements) update buyFlag and sellFlag.
6. Labels and Alerts :
The indicator plots "BUY" or "SELL" labels with the RSI value when signals trigger and sets alerts through alertcondition().
Code Explanation : label.new() displays the signal, color-coded for strength based on RSI.
NOTE : All strategies can be enabled or disabled in the settings, allowing traders to customize the indicator to their preferences and trading styles.
The Exact IndicatorStruggling to get in on a trade? Don't know where to take profits? This indicator might help - it only displays the Buy, Stop Loss and Take profit points when certain conditions are met.
The indicator combines a moving average crossover strategy with trend analysis to identify potential buy opportunities in the market. It utilises a short-term and long-term Simple Moving Average (SMA) to generate buy signals when the short-term SMA crosses above the long-term SMA. Additionally, it displays take profit and stop loss levels, along with a background colour indicating the overall trend strength.
Pros :
Clear Signals : Provides straightforward buy signals based on a well-known crossover strategy, making it easy for traders to identify entry points.
Visual Aids : The inclusion of take profit and stop loss levels, along with background trend colors, enhances decision-making and risk management.
Trend Awareness : The background colour changes based on trend strength, allowing traders to quickly assess market conditions.
Cons :
Lagging Indicator : Moving averages are inherently lagging, which can result in delayed signals, especially in volatile markets.
False Signals : Crossover strategies can produce false signals during sideways or choppy market conditions, leading to potential losses.
Limited Scope : The indicator focuses primarily on buy signals, potentially missing out on other trading opportunities (like short-selling) in a bearish market.
Overall, while this indicator can be a useful tool for identifying bullish trends and potential entry points, traders should use it in conjunction with other analysis methods and risk management strategies to mitigate its limitations.
Master Candle Breakout V1 Master Candle Breakout V1 - Indicator Description
The Master Candle Breakout V1 indicator is a powerful price action-based tool designed to help traders identify and capitalize on breakout opportunities from consolidation phases. This indicator is particularly useful for identifying master candles, which are large candles that encompass the range of subsequent candles, creating a key level of support or resistance. Once the price breaks above or below the range of the master candle, the indicator provides clear buy or sell signals, allowing traders to ride the momentum of the breakout.
Key Features:
Master Candle Detection: The indicator identifies master candles based on a user-defined period, marking them on the chart as critical breakout points.
Buy and Sell Signals: When the price breaks above the master candle's high, a buy signal is plotted. Similarly, when the price breaks below the master candle's low, a sell signal is generated. These signals are displayed on the chart with customizable shapes (diamonds, arrows, circles, crosses) and colors for easy visualization.
Stop-Loss Level Display: For risk management, the indicator calculates and plots a stop-loss level based on user-defined ticks above or below the master candle's high or low. The stop-loss value is shown as a label next to the signal, helping traders manage risk effectively.
Customizable Colors and Shapes: Users can fully customize the appearance of the signals, including the color of the buy/sell diamonds, the stop-loss label text color, and the type of shape used for the signals.
Versatile Application: The Master Candle Breakout V1 can be applied to any timeframe and market, from forex and stocks to commodities and cryptocurrencies, making it a highly versatile tool for traders of all types.
How to Use:
Master Candle Period: Define how many candles should follow the master candle for confirmation.
Stop Loss Ticks: Set the number of ticks above or below the master candle to define your stop-loss level.
Entry Signals: Once the price closes outside the high or low of the master candle, enter the trade accordingly (buy on breakouts above the high, sell on breakouts below the low).
Risk Management: Use the stop-loss level provided by the indicator to minimize losses and protect your capital.
This indicator is perfect for traders who prefer a simple, price-action-based strategy and want to avoid the clutter of traditional indicators. By focusing on the core principle of breakouts, Master Candle Breakout V1 helps traders quickly identify consolidation zones and potential breakout trades.
Descriptive Backtesting Framework (DBF)As the name suggests, this is a backtesting framework made to offer full backtesting functionality to any custom indicator in a visually descriptive way.
Any trade taken will be very clear to visualize on the chart and the equity line will be updated live allowing us to use the REPLAY feature to view the strategy performing in real time.
Stops and Targets will also get draw on the chart with labels and tooltips and there will be a table on the top right corner displaying lots of descriptive metrics to measure your strategy's performance.
IF YOU DECIDE TO USE THIS FRAMEWORK, PLEASE READ **EVERYTHING** BELOW
HOW TO USE IT
Step 1 - Insert Your Strategy Indicators:
Inside this framework's code, right at the beginning, you will find a dedicated section where you can manually insert any set of indicators you desire.
Just replace the example code in there with your own strategy indicators.
Step 2 - Specify The Conditions To Take Trades:
After that, there will be another section where you need to specify your strategy's conditions to enter and exit trades.
When met, those conditions will fire the trading signals to the trading engine inside the framework.
If you don't wish to use some of the available signals, please just assign false to the signal.
DO NOT DELETE THE SIGNAL VARIABLES
Step 3 - Specify Entry/Exit Prices, Stops & Targets:
Finally you'll reach the last section where you'll be able to specify entry/exit prices as well as add stops and targets.
On most cases, it's easier and more reliable to just use the close price to enter and exit trades.
If you decide to use the open price instead, please remember to change step 2 so that trades are taken on the open price of the next candle and not the present one to avoid the look ahead bias.
Stops and targets can be set in any way you want.
Also, please don't forget to update the spread. If your broker uses commissions instead of spreads or a combination of both, you'll need to manually incorporate those costs in this step.
And that's it! That's all you have to do.
Below this section you'll now see a sign warning you about not making any changes to the code below.
From here on, the framework will take care of executing the trades and calculating the performance metrics for you and making sure all calculations are consistent.
VISUAL FEATURES:
Price candles get painted according to the current trade.
They will be blue during long trades, purple on shorts and white when no trade is on.
When the framework receives the signals to start or close a trade, it will display those signals as shapes on the upper and lower limits of the chart:
DIAMOND: represents a signal to open a trade, the trade direction is represented by the shape's color;
CROSS: means a stop loss was triggered;
FLAG: means a take profit was triggered;
CIRCLE: means an exit trade signal was fired;
Hovering the mouse over the trade labels will reveal:
Asset Quantity;
Entry/Exit Prices;
Stops & Targets;
Trade Profit;
Profit As Percentage Of Trade Volume;
**Please note that there's a limit as to how many labels can be drawn on the chart at once.**
If you which to see labels from the beginning of the chart, you'll probably need to use the replay feature.
PERFORMANCE TABLE:
The performance table displays several performance metrics to evaluate the strategy.
All the performance metrics here are calculated by the framework. It does not uses the oficial pine script strategy tester.
All metrics are calculated in real time. If using the replay feature, they will be updated up to the last played bar.
Here are the available metrics and their definition:
INITIAL EQUITY: the initial amount of money we had when the strategy started, obviously...;
CURRENT EQUITY: the amount of money we have now. If using the replay feature, it will show the current equity up to the last bar played. The number on it's right side shows how many times our equity has been multiplied from it's initial value;
TRADE COUNT: how many trades were taken;
WIN COUNT: how many of those trades were wins. The percentage at the right side is the strategy WIN RATE;
AVG GAIN PER TRADE: the average percentage gain per trade. Very small values can indicate a fragile strategy that can behave in unexpected ways under high volatility conditions;
AVG GAIN PER WIN: the average percentage gain of trades that were profitable;
AVG GAIN PER LOSS: the average percentage loss on trades that were not profitable;
EQUITY MAX DD: the maximum drawdown experienced by our equity during the entire strategy backtest;
TRADE MAX DD: the maximum drawdown experienced by our equity after one single trade;
AVG MONTHLY RETURN: the compound monthly return that our strategy was able to create during the backtested period;
AVG ANNUAL RETURN: this is the strategy's CAGR (compound annual growth rate);
ELAPSED MONTHS: number of months since the backtest started;
RISK/REWARD RATIO: shows how profitable the strategy is for the amount of risk it takes. Values above 1 are very good (and rare). This is calculated as follows: (Avg Annual Return) / mod(Equity Max DD). Where mod() is the same as math.abs();
AVAILABLE SETTINGS:
SPREAD: specify your broker's asset spread
ENABLE LONGS / SHORTS: you can keep both enable or chose to take trades in only one direction
MINIMUM BARS CLOSED: to avoid trading before indicators such as a slow moving average have had time to populate, you can manually set the number of bars to wait before allowing trades.
INITIAL EQUITY: you can specify your starting equity
EXPOSURE: is the percentage of equity you wish to risk per trade. When using stops, the strategy will automatically calculate your position size to match the exposure with the stop distance. If you are not using stops then your trade volume will be the percentage of equity specified here. 100 means you'll enter trades with all your equity and 200 means you'll use a 2x leverage.
MAX LEVERAGE ALLOWED: In some situations a short stop distance can create huge levels of leverage. If you want to limit leverage to a maximum value you can set it here.
SEVERAL PLOTTING OPTIONS: You'll be able to specify which of the framework visuals you wish to see drawn on the chart.
FRAMEWORK **LIMITATIONS**:
When stop and target are both triggered in the same candle, this framework isn't able to enter faster timeframes to check which one was triggered first, so it will take the pessimistic assumption and annul the take profit signal;
This framework doesn't support pyramiding;
This framework doesn't support both long and short positions to be active at the same time. So for example, if a short signal is received while a long trade is open, the framework will close the long trade and then open a short trade;
FINAL CONSIDERATIONS:
I've been using this framework for a good time and I find it's better to use and easier to analyze a strategy's performance then relying on the oficial pine script strategy tester. However, I CANNOT GUARANTEE IT TO BE BUG FREE.
**PLEASE PERFORM A MANUAL BACKTEST BEFORE USING ANY STRATEGY WITH REAL MONEY**
Lot Size Calculator by MenolakRugiThe Lot Size Formula in forex trading is a critical tool that offers several key benefits to traders:
🟢Risk Management: By using the formula, traders can control the amount of capital they risk on each trade. This helps prevent excessive losses by aligning the lot size with a predefined risk tolerance, such as 1% or 2% of the account balance.
🟢Consistent Position Sizing: The formula ensures that position sizes are calculated based on the specific trade setup, including the distance to the stop loss. This consistency helps avoid over-leveraging and reduces the emotional aspect of trading.
🟢Adaptability: The lot size can be adjusted according to different currency pairs and market conditions. This flexibility ensures that traders can apply the formula across various trading instruments and environments.
🟢Improved Profit Potential: By managing risk effectively, traders can protect their capital while maximizing profit opportunities. When losses are controlled, traders are able to stay in the market longer and compound their gains over time.
🟢Precision in Trade Planning: Calculating the lot size allows traders to plan their trades more precisely, aligning their strategies with the amount they are willing to risk. This leads to more disciplined and structured trading, reducing impulsive decisions.
In summary, the lot size formula helps maintain a balanced approach to trading, where both risk and reward are carefully managed to increase the chances of long-term success.
False Breakouts [TradingFinder] Fake Breakouts Failure🔵 Introduction
Technical indicators are essential tools for analysts and traders in financial markets, helping them predict price movements and make better trading decisions. One of the key concepts in technical analysis that should be carefully considered is the "False Breakout."
This phenomenon occurs when a price temporarily breaks through a significant support or resistance level but fails to hold and quickly returns to its previous range. Understanding this concept and applying it in trading can reduce risks and increase profitability.
🟣 What is a False Breakout?
A Fake Breakout, as the name suggests, refers to a breakout that appears to occur but fails to sustain, leading the price to quickly revert back to its previous range. This situation often happens when inexperienced or non-professional traders, under psychological pressure and eager to enter the market quickly, initiate trades.
This creates opportunities for professional traders to take advantage of these short-term fluctuations and execute successful trades.
🟣 The Importance of Recognizing False Breakouts
Recognizing False Breakouts is crucial for any trader aiming for success in financial markets. False Breakouts typically occur when the market approaches a critical support or resistance level.
In these situations, many traders are waiting to see if the price will break through this level. However, when the price quickly returns to its previous range, it indicates weakness in the movement and the inability to sustain the breakout.
🟣 How to identify False Breakouts?
To identify Fake Breakouts, it is important to carefully analyze price charts and look for signs of a quick price reversal after breaking a key level.
Here are some chart patterns that may help you identify a False Breakout :
1. Pin Bar Pattern : The Pin Bar is a candlestick pattern that indicates a price reversal. This pattern usually appears near support and resistance levels, showing that the price attempted to break through a key level but failed and reversed.
2. Fakey Pattern : This pattern, which consists of several candlesticks, indicates a False Breakout and a quick price return to the previous range. It usually appears near key levels and can signal a trend reversal.
3. Using Multiple Timeframes : One way to identify False Breakouts is by using charts of different timeframes. Sometimes, a breakout on a one-hour chart may be a False Breakout on a daily chart. Analyzing charts across multiple timeframes can help you accurately identify this phenomenon.
🔵 How to Use
Once you identify a False Breakout, you can use it as a trading signal. For this, it is best to look for trading opportunities in the opposite direction of the False Breakout. In other words, if a False Breakout occurs at a resistance level, you might consider selling opportunities, and if it happens at a support level, you might look for buying opportunities.
Here are some key points for trading based on False Breakouts :
1. Patience and Discipline : Patience and discipline are crucial when trading with False Breakouts. Wait for the False Breakout to clearly form before entering a trade.
2. Use Stop Loss : Setting an appropriate stop loss is vital when trading based on False Breakouts. Typically, the stop loss can be placed near the level where the False Breakout occurred.
3. Seek Confirmations : Before entering a trade, look for additional confirmations. These can include other analyses or technical indicators that show the price is likely to return to its previous level.

🔵Conclusion
False Breakouts, as a key concept in technical analysis, are powerful tools for identifying sudden price changes and using them in trading. Understanding this phenomenon and applying it can help traders perform better in financial markets and avoid potential losses.
To benefit from False Breakouts, traders need to carefully analyze charts and use the appropriate analytical tools. By leveraging this strategy, traders can achieve lower-risk and higher-reward trades.
