Nadaraya-Watson Envelope Strategy (Non-Repainting) Log ScaleIn the diverse world of trading strategies, the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope Strategy offers a different approach. Grounded in mathematical analysis, this strategy utilizes the Nadaraya-Watson kernel regression, a method traditionally employed for interpreting complex data patterns.
At the core of this strategy lies the concept of 'envelopes', which are essentially dynamic volatility bands formed around the price based on a custom Average True Range (ATR). These envelopes help provide guidance on potential market entry and exit points. The strategy suggests considering a buy when the price crosses the lower envelope and a sell when it crosses the upper envelope.
One distinctive characteristic of the Nadaraya-Watson Envelope Strategy is its use of a logarithmic scale, as opposed to a linear scale. The logarithmic scale can be advantageous when dealing with larger timeframes and assets with wide-ranging price movements.
The strategy is implemented using Pine Script v5, and includes several adjustable parameters such as the lookback window, relative weighting, and the regression start point, providing a level of flexibility.
However, it's important to maintain a balanced view. While the use of mathematical models like the Nadaraya-Watson kernel regression may provide insightful data analysis, no strategy can guarantee success. Thorough backtesting, understanding the mathematical principles involved, and sound risk management are always essential when applying any trading strategy.
The Nadaraya-Watson Envelope Strategy thus offers another tool for traders to consider. As with all strategies, its effectiveness will largely depend on the trader's understanding, application, and the specific market conditions.

Grid Strategy with MA0. Preface
Hello traders,
This is a strategy script that allows you to utilize a Grid Strategy using moving averages.
It is very simple, but I decided to post it because it was hard to find such shared open-source codes in Pine Script.
1. Main
This is a very simple trading method.
Based on the moving average line you set, if the price drops by a certain ATR (or percent) below it, you buy, and when it goes back up, you sell.
In basic settings, you choose the moving average line and its length, and decide how much to set the distance between each grid through the 'Band Multiplier/Percent' item.
I believe that it is advantageous to widen the bandwidth for stocks with strong upward momentum.
2. Conclusion
I have confirmed that this works better in the stock market than in the crypto market,
and that it is suitable for use on index stocks like NASDAQ because it follows trends.
In addition, through backtesting, I have confirmed that this grid strategy is more suitable for buying strategies than selling strategies, so I uploaded it as a strategy focused on buying strategies.
Personally, I have developed my own strategy by adjusting buying and selling strategies according to trends and managing risks.
I hope you can use this to create a script that suits you.
Thank you.
Powertrend - Volume Range Filter Strategy [wbburgin]The Powertrend is a range filter that is based off of volume, instead of price. This helps the range filter capture trends more accurately than a price-based range filter, because the range filter will update itself from changes in volume instead of changes in price. In certain scenarios this means that the Powertrend will be more profitable than a normal range filter.
Essentials of the Strategy
This is a breakout strategy which works best on trending assets with high volume and liquidity. It should be used on middle to higher timeframes and can be used on all assets that have volume provided by the data source (stocks, crypto, forex). It is long-only as of now. It can work on lower timeframes if you optimize the strategy filters to make less trades or if your exchange/broker is low/no fees, provided that your exchange/broker has high liquidity and volume.
The strategy enters a long position if the range filter is trending upwards and the price crosses over the upper range band, which signifies a price-volume breakout. The strategy closes the long position if the range filter is trending downwards and the price crosses under the lower range band, which signifies a breakdown. Both these conditions can be altered by the three filter options in the settings. The default trend filter is not alterable because it helps prevent false entries and exits that are against the trend.
Settings
The Length setting is the lookback period for the range smoothing.
The ADX Filter setting enables you to turn on an ADX filter, which will halt entries and exits unless the ADX of your customizable length is above a ADX VWMA of that length.
The Range Supertrend setting creates a supertrend from the top and bottom ranges, which can be used to filter entries and exits. The length is customizable. The filter can show you whether the range is making higher highs and lower lows. Below is an example of the Range Supertrend being used as a filter and plotted on-chart:
The VWMA setting halts entries if they are below a customizable length VWMA.
Both the Range Supertrend and the VWMA can also be plotted separately without actually filtering the strategy, so that you can use them independently if you wish. You can turn off the bar color, the highlighting, and the labels if you wish in the settings. A note about the bar color: if the color changes but the strategy does not signal an exit or entry this means that the crossover was against the trend. In these circumstances it may be indicative of a pullback to enter or exit or to add onto your position.
About the Strategy Results Below
A range filter is normally composed of two components - the range filter itself and a smoothing function. In the development of this script I tested both normal and volume-based varieties of the range filter and the smoothing function:
Tests Performed
Volume-based Range x VWMA smoothing
Price-based Range x VWMA smoothing
Price-based Range x EMA smoothing
Volume-based Range x EMA smoothing (final result)
The highest-performing was a volume-based range filter and a normal EMA-based smoothing function, but that does not mean that this strategy will be profitable - exits are based off of signal reversion so I strongly encourage you to develop your own take profits/stop losses for the strategy if you think it may be a good fit for you. The results below are with a commission value of 0.05% (because I built the strategy first for equities), slippage of 3, so if your exchange/broker has a higher fee schedule, I recommend adding filters and/or moving to higher timeframes for the strategy. Additionally, I used 10% of equity in each trade, while using the Range Supertrend filter (the previous upload was unrealistic because it used 100% of equity - missed a 0, apologies, and added in slippage).
BB and KC StrategyThis script is designed as a TradingView strategy that uses Bollinger Bands (BB) and Keltner Channels (KC) as the primary indicators for generating trade signals. It aims to catch potential market trends by comparing the movements of these two popular volatility measures.
Key aspects of this strategy:
1. **Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels:** Both are volatility-based indicators. The Bollinger Bands consist of a middle band (simple moving average) and two outer bands calculated based on standard deviation, which adjusts itself to market conditions. Keltner Channels are a set of bands placed above and below an exponential moving average of the price. The distance between the bands is calculated based on the Average True Range (ATR), a measure of price volatility.
2. **Entry Signals:** The strategy enters a long position when the upper KC line crosses above the upper BB line and the volume is above its moving average. Conversely, it enters a short position when the lower KC line crosses below the lower BB line and the volume is above its moving average.
3. **Exit Signals:** The strategy exits a position under two conditions. First, if the trade has been open for a certain number of bars defined by the user (default 20 bars). Second, a stop loss and trailing stop are in place to limit potential losses and lock in profits as the price moves favorably. The stop loss is set at a percentage of the entry price (default 1.5% for long and -1.5% for short), and the trailing stop is also a percentage of the entry price (default 2%).
4. **Trade Quantity:** The script allows specifying the investment amount for each trade, set to a default of 1000 currency units.
Remember, this is a strategy script, which means it is used for backtesting and not for real-time signals or live trading. It is also recommended that it is used as a tool to aid your trading, not as a standalone system. As with any strategy, it should be tested over different market conditions and used in conjunction with other aspects of technical and fundamental analysis to ensure robustness and effectiveness.
Master Supertrend Strategy [Trendoscope]Here is the strategy version of the indicator - Master Supertrend
Options and variations are same throughout.
🎲 Variations
Following variations are provided in the form of settings.
🎯 Range Type
Instead of ATR, different types of ranges can be used for stop calculation. Here is the complete list used in the script.
Plus/Minus Range* - Calculates plus range and minus range for each candle and uses them for different sides of stop calculation
Ladder ATR - Based on the existing concept of Ladder ATR defined in Supertrend-Ladder-ATR
True Range - True range derived from standard function ta.tr
Standard Deviation - Standard deviation of close prices
🎯 Applied Calculation
In standard ATR, rma of TR is used for calculations. But, the application calculation provides option to users to use different mechanisms. It can be a type of moving average or few other types of calculations.
Available values are
sma
ema
hma
rma
wma
high
median
🎯 Other options
Few other options provided are
Use Close Price - If selected stops are calculated based on the close price instead of high/low prices
Wait for Close If selected, change of supertrend direction is calculated based on close price instead of high/low prices
Diminishing Stop Distance - When selected, stop distance for the trend direction can only reduce and cannot increase. This option is useful for keeping the tight stops on strong trends.
🎯 Plus Minus Range*
One of the range type used is Plus/Minus Range. What it means and how are these ranges calculated? Let's have a look.
Plus Range is an upward movement of a candle from its last price or open price whichever is lower.
Minus Range is a downward movement of a candle from its last price or open price whichever is higher.
This divides True Range into two separate range for positive and negative side.
Note : Effectiveness on daily charts are quire visible. However, if you want to use it for lower timeframes, please play around with settings before settling on suitable configuration.
Bollinger Bands, RSI, and MA StrategyThe "Bollinger Bands, RSI and MA Strategy" is a trend-following strategy that combines the Bollinger Bands indicator, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and a moving average (MA). It aims to identify potential entry and exit points in the market based on price volatility, momentum, and trend.
The strategy uses two Bollinger Bands with different standard deviations to create price channels. The default settings for the Bollinger Bands are a length of 20 periods and a standard deviation of 2.0. The upper and lower bands of the Bollinger Bands serve as dynamic resistance and support levels, respectively.
The RSI indicator is employed to gauge the strength of price momentum.
The strategy also incorporates a 50-period moving average (MA) to help identify the overall trend direction. When the price is above the MA, it suggests an uptrend, and when the price is below the MA, it suggests a downtrend.
The entry conditions for long trades are when the RSI is above the overbought level and there is no contraction in the Bollinger Bands. For short trades, the entry conditions are when the RSI is below the oversold level and there is no contraction in the Bollinger Bands.
The exit conditions for long trades are when the RSI drops below the overbought level or when the price closes below the 50-period MA.
For short trades, the exit conditions are when the RSI goes above the oversold level or when the price closes above the 50-period MA.
The strategy generates alerts for potential long and short entry signals, as well as for exit signals when the specified conditions are met. These alerts can be used to receive notifications or take further actions, such as placing trades manually or using automated trading systems.
It is important to note that this strategy serves as a starting point and should be thoroughly backtested and validated with historical data before applying it to live trading. Additionally, it is recommended to consider risk management techniques, including setting appropriate stop-loss and take-profit levels, to effectively manage trades.
Advanced Trend Detection StrategyThe Advanced Trend Detection Strategy is a sophisticated trading algorithm based on the indicator "Percent Levels From Previous Close".
This strategy is based on calculating the Pearson's correlation coefficient of logarithmic-scale linear regression channels across a range of lengths from 50 to 1000. It then selects the highest value to determine the length for the channel used in the strategy, as well as for the computation of the Simple Moving Average (SMA) that is incorporated into the strategy.
In this methodology, a script is applied to an equity in which multiple length inputs are taken into consideration. For each of these lengths, the slope, average, and intercept are calculated using logarithmic values. Deviation, the Pearson's correlation coefficient, and upper and lower deviations are also computed for each length.
The strategy then selects the length with the highest Pearson's correlation coefficient. This selected length is used in the channel of the strategy and also for the calculation of the SMA. The chosen length is ultimately the one that best fits the logarithmic regression line, as indicated by the highest Pearson's correlation coefficient.
In short, this strategy leverages the power of Pearson's correlation coefficient in a logarithmic scale linear regression framework to identify optimal trend channels across a broad range of lengths, assisting traders in making more informed decisions.
Bollinger Bands - Breakout StrategyThe Bollinger Bands - Breakout Strategy is a trend-following optimized for short-term trading in the crypto market. This strategy employs the Bollinger Bands, a widely recognized technical indicator, as its primary instrument for pinpointing potential trades. It is capable of executing both long and short positions, depending on whether the market is in a spot or futures, and is particularly effective in trending markets.
The strategy boasts a high degree of configurability, allowing users to set the Bollinger Bands period and deviation, trend filter, volatility filter, trade direction filter, rate of change filter, and date filter. Furthermore, it offers options for Take Profit, Stop Loss, and Trailing Stop for both long and short positions, ensuring a comprehensive risk management approach. The inclusion of a maximum intraday loss feature adds another layer of protection, making this strategy a valuable tool for traders seeking a professional and adaptable trading system.

Adaptive Price Channel StrategyThis strategy is an adaptive price channel strategy based on the Average True Range (ATR) indicator and the Average Directional Index (ADX). It aims to identify sideways markets and trends in the price movements and make trades accordingly.
The strategy uses a length parameter for the ATR and ADX indicators, which determines the length of the calculation for these indicators. The strategy also uses an ATR multiplier, which is multiplied by the ATR to determine the upper and lower bounds of the price channel.
The first step of the strategy is to calculate the highest high (HH) and lowest low (LL) over the specified length. The ATR is also calculated over the same length. Then the strategy calculates the positive directional indicator (+DI) and negative directional indicator (-DI) based on the up and down moves in the price, and uses these to calculate the ADX.
If the ADX is less than 25, the market is considered to be in a sideways phase. In this case, if the price closes above the upper bound of the price channel (HH - ATR multiplier * ATR), the strategy enters a long position, and if the price closes below the lower bound of the price channel (LL + ATR multiplier * ATR), the strategy enters a short position.
If the ADX is greater than or equal to 25 and the +DI is greater than the -DI, the market is considered to be in a bullish phase. In this case, if the price closes above the upper bound of the price channel, the strategy enters a long position. If the ADX is greater than or equal to 25 and the +DI is less than the -DI, the market is considered to be in a bearish phase. In this case, if the price closes below the lower bound of the price channel, the strategy enters a short position.
The strategy exits a position after a certain number of bars have passed since the entry, as specified by the exit_length input.
In summary, this strategy attempts to trade in accordance with the prevailing market conditions by identifying sideways markets and trends and making trades based on price movements within a dynamically-adjusted price channel.
This strategy takes a read on the market and either takes a channel strategy or trades volatility based on current trend. Works well on 2, 3 ,4, 12 hour for BTC. It’s my first attempt and creating a strategy. I am very interested in constructive criticism. I will look into better risk management, maybe a trailing stop loss. Other suggestions welcome. This is my first attempt at a strategy.

Volatility Range Breakout Strategy [wbburgin]The "Volatility Range Breakout Strategy" uses deviations of high-low volatility to determine bullish and bearish breakouts.
HOW IT WORKS
The volatility function uses the high-low range of a lookback period, divided by the average of that range, to determine the likelihood that price will break in a specific direction.
High and low ranges are determined by the relative volatility compared to the current closing price. The high range, for example, is the (volatility * close) added to the close, the low range is this value subtracted by the close.
A volatility-weighted moving average is taken of these high and low ranges to form high and low bands.
Finally, breakouts are identified once the price closes above or below these bands. An upwards breakout (bullish) occurs when the price breaks above the upper band, while a downwards breakout (bearish) occurs when the price breaks below the lower band. Positions can be closed either by when the price falls out of its current band ("Range Crossover" in settings under 'Exit Type') or when the price falls below or above the volatility MA (default because this allows us to catch trends for longer).
INPUTS/SETTINGS
The AVERAGE LENGTH is the period for the volatility MA and the weighted volatility bands.
The VOLATILITY LENGTH is how far the lookback should be for highs/lows for the volatility calculation.

Educational Strategy : TRIPLE DRAG-ON SYSTEM V.1The Triple Dragon System is a technical trading strategy that uses a combination of three different indicators to identify potential buy and sell signals in the market. The three indicators used in this strategy are the Extended Price Volume Trend (EPVT), the Donchian Channels, and the Parabolic SAR. Each of these indicators provides different types of information about the market, and by combining them, we can create a more comprehensive trading system.
The EPVT is used to identify potential trend changes and measure the strength of a trend. The Donchian Channels are used to identify the direction of the trend, while the Parabolic SAR is used to provide additional confirmation of trend changes and help determine potential entry and exit points.
In this strategy, we first use the EPVT and Donchian Channels to identify the direction of the trend. When the EPVT is above its baseline and the price is above the upper Donchian Channel, it suggests an uptrend. Conversely, when the EPVT is below its baseline and the price is below the lower Donchian Channel, it suggests a downtrend.
Once we have identified the trend direction, we use the Parabolic SAR to help determine potential entry and exit points. When the Parabolic SAR is below the price and flips to above the price, it suggests a potential buy signal. Conversely, when the Parabolic SAR is above the price and flips to below the price, it suggests a potential sell signal.
To further refine our trading signals, we use multiple timeframes to confirm the trend direction and ensure that we are not entering the market during a period of high volatility. We also use multiple take-profit levels to lock in profits and manage risk.
Overall, the Triple Dragon System is a comprehensive technical trading strategy that combines multiple indicators to provide clear entry and exit signals. By using a combination of trend-following and momentum indicators, we can identify potential trading opportunities while minimizing risk. Please note that this strategy is for educational purposes only and should not be taken as financial advice.
BBPullback1.0.2This is a simple strategy script based on Bollinger Bands pullbacks.
The strategy is simple, as follows:
For LONGS: At the close of any candle, it check to see if this candle is an UP candle where the low broke below the lower Bollinger Band. If so, we call this the trigger candle. For the next bar, we issue a BUY signal if the price breaks above the high of the trigger candle. The stoploss is the low of the trigger candle. We take profit when the price goes above the middle Bollinger Band (the mean/average line).
For SHORTS: At the close of any candle, it check to see if this candle is an DOWN candle where the high broke above the upper Bollinger Band. If so, we call this the trigger candle. For the next bar, we issue a SELL signal if the price breaks below the low of the trigger candle. The stoploss is the high of the trigger candle. We take profit when the price goes below the middle Bollinger Band (the mean/average line).
AUTOMATIC GRID BOT STRATEGY [ilovealgotrading]
OVERVIEW:
This Grid trading strategy can help you maximize your profit in a ranging sideways market with no clear direction.
INDICATOR:
We can get some money by taking advantage of the movement of the price between the range we have determined.
Short positions are opened while the price is rising, long positions are opened while the price is falling.
Therefore, there is no need to predict the trend direction.
What is different in this indicator:
I want to say thank you to © thequantscience. His GRID SPOT TRADING ALGORITHM - GRID BOT TRADING strategy helped me when I was writing my indicator.
I want to explain what I have improved:
1- Grid strategy is a type of strategy that can be traded in very short time frames and users can trade this strategy algorithmically by connecting this strategy to their own accounts with the help of API systems. For this reason, I have developed a software that can give us signals by dynamically changing the long and short messages when users are trading.
2- We can change the start and end dates of our grid bot as we want. It is necessary to use this setting when setting up automatic bots, so that previously opened transactions are not taken into account.
3 - Lot or quantity size should not be excessively small when users are taking automatic trades because exchanges have limitations, to avoid this problem, I have prevented this error by automatically rounding up to the nearest quantity size inside the software.
4 - Users can avoid excessive losses by using stop loss on this grid bot if they wish.
5 - When our price is over the range high or below the range low, our open positions are closed, if the stop button is active. We can also change which close price time frame we take as a basis from the settings.
6 -Users can set how many dollars they can enter per transaction while performing their transactions automatically.
IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS – SETTINGS:
This script allows the user to choose the highs and lows leves of our range. Our bot trades in the specified range.
1. This strategy allows us to set start and end backtest dates.
2. We can change range high and range low leves of our bot
3. IF people want to trade algorithmically with the help of this bot, there are 6 different input systems that will receive the Json codes as an alarm
4. IF the price closes above the upper line or below the lower line, all transactions will be closed. We can determine in which time frame our transactions will be stopped if the price closes outside these levels.We can adjust how our bot works by activating or turning off the Stop Loss button.
5. In this strategy, you can determine your dollar cost for per position.
6. The user can also divide the interval we have determined into 10 parts or 20 equal parts.
7. The grid is divided and colored at the interval we set. At the same time, if we don't want we can turn off colored channels.
Notes:
If you're going to connect this bot to an automatic Long and Short direction,
Don’t forget! you need to Webhook URL,
Don’t miss paste this code to your message window {{strategy.order.alert_message}}
ALSO:
Set your range below the support zones and above the resistance zones.
Don't be afraid to take a wide range, it doesn't matter if you make a little money, the important thing is that you don't lose money.
If you have any ideas what to add to my work to add more sources or make calculations cooler, suggest in DM .
Shorting when Bollinger Band Above Price with RSI (by Coinrule)The Bollinger Bands are among the most famous and widely used indicators. A Bollinger Band is a technical analysis tool defined by a set of trendlines plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average ( SMA ) of a security's price, but which can be adjusted to user preferences. They can suggest when an asset is oversold or overbought in the short term, thus providing the best time for buying and selling it.
The relative strength index ( RSI ) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis. RSI measures the speed and magnitude of a security's recent price changes to evaluate overvalued or undervalued conditions in the price of that security. The RSI can do more than point to overbought and oversold securities. It can also indicate securities primed for a trend reversal or corrective pullback in price. It can signal when to buy and sell. Traditionally, an RSI reading of 70 or above indicates an overbought situation. A reading of 30 or below indicates an oversold condition.
The short order is placed on assets that present strong momentum when it's more likely that it is about to reverse. The rule strategy places and closes the order when the following conditions are met:
ENTRY
The closing price is greater than the upper standard deviation of the Bollinger Bands
The RSI is less than 70.
EXIT
The trade is closed when the RSI is less than 70
The lower standard deviation of the Bollinger Band is less than the closing price.
This strategy was backtested from the beginning of 2022 to capture how this strategy would perform in a bear market.
The strategy assumes each order to trade 70% of the available capital to make the results more realistic. A trading fee of 0.1% is taken into account. The fee is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange by volume.
Donchian Trend V1The Donchian Trend strategy is a trend-following approach that uses the Donchian Channels indicator to identify potential entry and exit points in a security. The Donchian Channels are formed by taking the highest high and the lowest low prices over a specified period and plotting them as upper and lower channels around the current price. The width of the channels indicates the level of volatility in the market.
In this strategy, the Donchian Channels are used as a trend filter to determine the direction of the market. When the price is above the upper channel, it suggests an uptrend, and when the price is below the lower channel, it indicates a downtrend. The length of the Donchian Channels is a key parameter in the strategy, as it determines the look-back period for identifying the high and low prices.
Additional Logic: To further refine the entry and exit signals, The script uses two moving averages, a fast one (MA5) and a slow one (MA45), to identify trends and generate trading signals. When the fast moving average crosses above the slow moving average, a buy signal is generated, indicating that the market is trending upwards. Conversely, when the fast moving average crosses below the slow moving average, a sell signal is generated, indicating that the market is trending downwards.
Evaluation: The script was backtested on historical price data for the pair. The backtest results showed that the script was able to generate a net profit of , with a profit factor of and a Sharpe ratio of . The script also includes metrics such as the number of winning and losing trades, the average trade, and the largest winning and losing trades.
The strategy is evaluated based on its net profit, gross profit, gross loss, max run-up, max drawdown, buy & hold return, Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, and profit factor. The parameters used in the backtest include a Donchian Channel length of 42, which corresponds to a weekly time with divide of 4h time frame, and a short-term MA of 5 and a long-term MA of 45 for more accurate entry and exit signals.
Disclaimer: This script is for educational and research purposes only and should not be used for trading with real money without further testing and validation. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
NIFTY 50 5mint StrategyThis is an intraday strategy for NIFTY50 Based First candle High and Low breakout.
The strategy takes user inputs for the start and end dates, start and end months, and start and end years, which define the time range to trade. The user can also specify the maximum number of trades to take during the time range and the length of the Exponential Moving Average ( EMA ) used in the strategy
In this strategy, the First candle's high and low are calculated and used as entry and exit points for trades. If the close price breaks above the First candle's high, a buy signal is generated. Conversely, if the close price breaks below the First candle's low, a sell signal is generated.
The strategy uses the Exponential Moving Average ( EMA ) as a filter to close entered positions either long or short, EMA also acts Target. If the close price falls below the EMA, a long position is closed, and if the close price rises above the EMA, a short position is closed or the PreviousCandleClose is above the First candle's high a short position is closed, When the PreviousCandleClose is below the First candle's low a long position is closed, First candle's high act as Stoploss
The strategy limits the number of trades taken within the specified time range, and if the time range is exceeded, all positions are closed.
Finally, the strategy plots the First candle's high and low, EMAs on the chart for visual reference.
Default settings work best with the 5mint candle, you may tweak settings according to your needs.
backtesting helps in interpreting how the trading strategy would have behaved in the past, and forward testing (paper trading) informs the traders how it would perform now.
Bollinger Band BreakoutThis strategy buys when price crosses above an upper Bollinger Band and sells when the lower band is breached. What makes this strategy different than others:
Long only with filtering for only showing strong tickers
Filter out trades below a moving average on both the current timeframe and a longer period timeframe to keep you out of bear markets
Optional ability to set a tighter initial stop level to increase exposure and decrease downside risk on freshly opened trades while you wait for the lower Bollinger Band trailing stop to catch up
Take entries/exits on wicks/stops or wait for candle closes before entry
Select which dates to backtest
Customize Bollinger Band parameters including the ability to have different values for the upper and lower band standard deviation
Strategy: Range BreakoutWhat?
In the price action, levels have a significant role to play. Based on the price moving above/below the levels - the underlying instrument shows some price-action in the direction of breakout/breakdown.
There are plenty of ways level can be determined. Levels are the decision point to take a trade or not. But if we make the level derivation complex, then the execution may get hamper.
This strategy script, developed in PineScript v5, is our attempt at solving this problem at the core by providing this simple, yet elegant solution to this problem.
It's essentially an attempt to Trade Simple by drawing logical (horizontal) lines in the chart and take actions, after multiple associated parameters confirmation, on the breakout / breakdown of the levels.
How?
Let us explain how we are drawing the levels.
We are depending on some of the parameters as described below:
Open Range : During intraday movement, often if prices move beyond a particular level, it exibits more movement in the same swing in same direction. We found out, through our back testing for Indian Indices like NSE:NIFTY , NSE:BANKNIFTY or NSE:CNXFINANCE the first 15m (i.e 09:15 AM to 09:30 AM, IST) is one of such range. For Indian stocks, it is 9:15 to 9:45. And for MCX MCX:CRUDEOIL1! it's 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm. There are our first levels.
PDHCL : Previous Day High, Close, Low. This is our next level
VWAP : The rolling VWAP (volume weighted average price)
In the breakout/breakdown of the Open Range and Previous Day High/Low, we are taking the trade decisions as follows using CEST principle:
C onditions :
If current bar's (say you are in 5m timeframe) closing is broken out the Open Range High or Previous Day High, taken a Buy/Long decision (let's say buying a Call Option CE or selling a Put Option PE or buying the future or cash).
If current bar's (say you are in 5m timeframe) closing is broken down the Open Range Low or Previous Day Low, taken a Sell/Short decision (let's say buying a Put Option CE or selling a Call Option PE or selling the future or cash).
Additionally, and optionally (default ON, one can turn off): we are checking various other associated multiple confirmations as follows:
1. Momentum : Checking 14-period RSI value is more than 50 or less than 50 (all parameters like period, OB, OS ranges are configurable through settings)
2. Current bar's volume is more than the last 20 bars volume average. How much more - that multiplier is also configurable. (default is 1)
3. The breakout candle is bullish (green) or bearish (red).
E ntry :
All of these happens only on the closing of the candle . Means: Non Repainting! .
Clearly in the chart we are showing as green up arrow BO (breakout for buy) and red down arrow BD (breakdown for sell) to take your decision process smooth.
So, on the closing of the decision BO/BD candle we are entering the trade (with a thumping heart and nail biting ...)
S top Loss :
We are relying on the time tasted (last 40 years) mechanism of Average True Range (ATR) of default 14 period. This default period is also configurable.
So for Long trades: the 14 period ATR low band is the SL.
For Short trades: the 14 period ATR high band is the SL.
T arget :
We are depending on the thump rule of 1:2 Risk Reward. It's simple and effective. No fancy thing. We are closing the trade on double the favorable price movement compared to the SL placed. Of course, this RR ratio is confiurable from the settings, as usual.
What's Unqiue in it?
The utter simplicity of this trading mechanism. No fancy things like complex chart pattern, OI data, multiple candlestick patterns, Order flow analysis etc.
Simple level determination,
Marking clearly in the chart.
Making each parameter configurable in Settings and showing tooltip adjacent to the parameter to make you understand it better for your customization,
Wait for the candle close, thus eliminating the chances of repainting menace (as much as possible)
Additional momentum and volume check to trade entry confirmation.
Works with normal candlestick (nothing special ones like HA ...)
Showing everything as a Summary Table (which, again can be turned off optionally) overlaying at the bottom-right corner of the chart,
Optionally the Summary Table can be configured to alert you back (say you get it notified in your email or SMS).
That way, a single, simple, effective trade setup will ease your journey as smooth sail as possible.
Mentions
There are plenty of friends from whom time to time we borrowed some of the ideas while working closely together over last one year.
From tradingview community, we took the spirit of @zzzcrypto123 awesome work done long back (in 2020) as the indicator "ORB - Opening Range Breakout". (We tried to reach him for his explicit consent, unable to catch hold of him).
Some other publicly available materials we have consulted to get the additional checks (like RSI, volume).

Band-Zigzag - TrendFollower Strategy [Trendoscope]Strategy Time!!!
Have built this on my earlier published indicator Band-Zigzag-Trend-Follower . This is just one possible implementation of strategy on Band-Based-Zigzag .
🎲 Notes
Experimental prototype. Not financial advise and strategy not guaranteed to make money despite backtest results
Not created or tested for any specific instrument or timeframe
Test and adopt with own risk
🎲 Strategy
This is trend following strategy built based on Bands and Zigzag. Traits of trend following strategies are
Lower win rate (Yes, thats right)
High risk reward (Compensates low win rate)
Higher drawdown
If market is choppy, trend following methods suffer.
The script implements few points to overcome the negatives such as lower win rate and higher drawdown by actively assessing pivots on the direction of trend along. This helps us take regular profits and exit on time during the end of trend. Most of the other concepts are defined and explained in indicator - Band-Zigzag-Trend-Follower and Band-Based-Zigzag
Defining a trend following method is simple. Basic rule of trend following is Buy High and Sell Low (Yes, you heard it right). To explain further - methodology involve finding an established trend which is flying high and join the trend with proper risk and optimal stop. Once you get into the trade, you will not exit unless there is change in the trend. Or in other words, the parameters which you used to define trend has reversed and the trend is not valid anymore.
🎯 Using bands
When price breaks out of upper bands (example, Bollinger Band , Keltener Channel, or Donchian Channel), with a pre determined length and multiplier, we can consider the trend to be bullish and similarly when price breaks down the lower band, we can consider the trend to be bearish .
🎯 Using Pivots
Simple logic using zigzag or pivot points is that when price starts making higher highs and higher lows, we can consider this as uptrend. And when price starts making lower highs and lower lows, we can consider this as downtrend. There are few supertrend implementations I have published in the past based on zigzags and pivot points .
Drawbacks of both of these methods is that there will be too many fluctuations in both cases unless we increase the reference length. And if we increase the reference length, we will have higher drawdown.
🎯 Band Based Zigzag Method
Here we use bands to define our pivot high and pivot low - this makes sure that we are identifying trend only on breakouts as pivots are only formed on breakouts
Our method also includes pivot ratio to cross over 1.0 to be able to consider it as trend. This means, we are waiting for price also to make new high high or lower low before making the decision on trend. But, this helps us ignore smaller pivot movements due to the usage of bands.
I have also implemented few tricks such as sticky bands (Bands will not contract unless there is breakout) and Adaptive Bands (Band will not expand unless price is moving in the direction of band). This makes the trend following method very robust.
To avoid fakeouts, we also use percentB of high/low in comparison with price retracement to define breakout.
🎲 Settings
Settings are fairly simpler and are explained as below. You will find most of the required information in tooltips.
Strategy Myth-Busting #5 - POKI+GTREND+ADX - [MYN]This is part of a new series we are calling "Strategy Myth-Busting" where we take open public manual trading strategies and automate them. The goal is to not only validate the authenticity of the claims but to provide an automated version for traders who wish to trade autonomously.
Our fifth one we are automating is one of the strategies from "The Best 3 Buy And Sell Indicators on Tradingview + Confirmation Indicators ( The Golden Ones ))" from "Online Trading Signals (Scalping Channel)". No formal backtesting was done by them and resuructo messaged me asking if we could validate their claims.
Originally, we mimic verbatim the settings Online Trading Signals was using however weren't getting promising results. So before we stopped there we thought we might want to see if this could be improved on. So we adjusted the Renko Assignment modifier from ATR to Traditional and adjusted the value to be higher from 30 to 47. We also decided to try adding another signal confirmation to eliminate some of the ranged market conditions so we choose our favorite, ADX . Also, given we are using this on a higher time-frame we adjusted the G-Channel Trend detection source from close to OHLC4 to get better average price action indication and more accurate trend direction.
This strategy uses a combination of 2 open-source public indicators:
poki buy and sell Take profit and stop loss by RafaelZioni
G-Channel Trend Detection by jaggedsoft
Trading Rules
15m - 4h timeframe. We saw best results at the recommended 1 hour timeframe.
Long Entry:
When POKI triggers a buy signal
When G-Channel Trend Detection is in an upward trend (Green)
ADX Is above 25
Short Entry:
When POKI triggers a sell signal
When G-Channel Trend Detection is in an downward trend (red)
ADX Is above 25

Flying Dragon Trend StrategyFlying Dragon Trend Strategy can be used to indicate the trend on all timeframes by finetuning the input settings.
The Flying Dragon Trend family includes both the strategy and the indicator, where the strategy supports of selecting the optimal set of inputs for the indicator in each scenario. Highly recommended to get familiar with the strategy first to get the best out of the indicator.
Flying Dragon Trend plots the trend bands into the ribbon, where the colours indicate the trend of each band. The plotting of the bands can be turned off in the input settings. Based on the user selectable Risk Level the strategy is executed when the price crosses the certain moving average line, or at the Lowest risk level all the bands have the same colour.
The main idea is to combine two different moving averages to cross each other at the possible trend pivot point, but trying to avoid any short term bounces to affect the trend indication. The ingenuity resides in the combination of selected moving average types, lengths and especially the offsets. The trend bands give visual hint for the user while observing the price interaction with the bands, one could say that when "the Dragon swallows the candles the jaws wide open", then there is high possibility for the pivot. The leading moving average should be fast while the lagging moving average should be, well, lagging behind the leading one. There is Offset selections for each moving average, three for leading one and one for the lagging one, those are where the magic happens. After user has selected preferred moving average types and lengths, by tuning each offset the optimal sweet spot for each timeframe and equity will be found. The default values are good enough starting points for longer (4h and up) timeframes, but shorter timeframes (minutes to hours) require different combination of settings, some hints are provided in tooltips. Basically the slower the "leading" moving average (like HMA75 or HMA115) and quicker the "lagging" moving average (like SMA12 or SMA5) become, the better performance at the Lowest risk level on minute scales. This "reversed" approach at the minute scales is shown also as reversed colour for the "lagging" moving average trend band, which seems to make it work surprisingly well.
The Flying Dragon Trend does not necessarily work well on zig zag and range bounce scenarios without additional finetuning of the input settings to fit the current condition.

Channels Strategy [Dimkud]Channels trading Strategy. Based on "Channels Strategy" by JoseMetal.
To the original strategy added additional options and filters : Static SL/TP in percents (%), time delay between orders, ATR Filter, second Keltner Channel (Multi TimeFrame).
Interface translated to English.
Were good backtest results on many crypto tokens on 15m - 45m - 1h periods.
Mostly with configuration: Keltner Channel (optimise parameters for every token) + Static SL/TP (optimise values for every token) + "Enter Condition" = "Wick out of band".
The better is to optimise paramaters separately for Short and Long trading. And run two separate bots (in settings enable only Long or only Short.)
Tested on real automated trading on few online bot platforms. (3comm, revenuebot, veles).
Later I will make tutorial how to connect strategy to these platforms or contact me if you need help.
Hull Kaufman SuperTrend Cloud (HKST Cloud)TLDR: This is a long only trend following system that uses highest and lowest values of three trend following indicators to form a "cloud". Enter when the candle high crosses above the highest band. Close if the low or close crosses below the lowest band.
3 indicators
1. Kaufman Adaptive moving Average - set at 20
2. Hull Moving Average (of the Kaufman Adaptive moving average) - set at 20
3. SuperTrend - I believe this is set at 5 periods and 3*atr but this can be changed
Cloud
the upper band is the highest of the 3 indicators
the lower band is the lowest of the 3 indicators
Entry and Exit:
Enter when the high crosses above the upper band of the cloud.
(This means you will only get a long signal if the high was previously below the upper band of the cloud and then crosses over.)
Exit when the low crosses below the lower band of the cloud .
(This means that this rule will only close if the low was previously above the upper band and then crosses under)
The "Exit" may not trigger if the low (the wick) never gets above the band. In this case the long order will close if the closing price is below the cloud.
Logic
Kaufamn is the best moving average i have found at responding to changes in volatility. This means it moves up or down quickly during expansive moves but becoming very flat during relative choppiness. However, getting flat causes the the Kaufman AMA to trigger a lot of false signals when volatility is transitioning from high to low. This is why the Hull moving average (with its rounded turns) keeps a lot of the false continuations contained because usually prices need to decisively move higher in order to over come the Hull moving average which continues to increase/decrease during the candles after an expansive move.
The super trend places a stagnant floor and ceiling which acts as a great stoploss or trigger as price action attempts to trend in a certain direction. The super trend allows for the user to adjust the likely hood of this cloud indicator changing from bullish to bearish based on the volatility of the asset that is being analyzed.
individually all of these are great. Together the trader can use this cloud to create a trend following or anlysis system that captures the bulk of moves.
Not my best explanation but this indicator is actually pretty simple.
Hope this helps. Happy Trades
