Countertrend
scalping against trapped countertrendAbstract
This script attempts to find the end of countertrend.
This script uses oscillators to measure long term and short period trends. When the long term trend keeps positive and clear short term period is over, this script provides a buy signal.
This script does not contain pullback, cut loss and re-enter. You need to add it manually.
Introduction
Many traders want to buy when long term trend is bullish and short term pullback is over.
This is because we can take advantage to the emotion of countertrend traders.
Countertrend traders realizes their profit is finite and therefore want to protect their profit well and limit their loss.
This script is inspired by a searchable trading strategy video.
The video mentioned 4 points.
(1) long term trend. The video did not spend much ink on this point. You can use any method to observe.
(2) clear pullback bar (at least 50% body)
(3) weak bar after clear pullback
(4) entry trigger buy stop
This script attempts to quantize these points to determine trading direction.
This script is originally designed for timeframes lower than examples in the video but you can apply it on any timeframe.
Computing and Adjusting
(1) long term trend
This script uses smoothed stochastic.
(2) clear pullback bar
Since this script is originally designed for timeframes lower than examples in the video, so the condition becomes:
RSI is low enough
(3) weak bar after clear pullback
RSI goes back from low level.
(4) entry trigger buy stop
This script does not include this condition.
You can decide enter when buy stop or pullback.
Parameters
x_src : the value for computing oscillators
x_len_a : how many bars for measuring short term trend
x_len_b : how many bars for measuring long term trend
x_k_b : smooth long term trend, the average value of stochastic values
x_changk = check if clear short term pullback appears recently. 1 means do not use, larger numbers means how long of periods to check.
x_rsi_ct : threshold of short term pullback clear
x_rsi_ft : threshold of short term pullback end
Reading numbers in Strategy Tester
Most possible loss :
(1) to find rational pullback. Generally 1/3 to 2/3 atr.
(2) to find cut loss distance. Generally 1 to 2 atr.
Most possible profit :
to find if trading the opposite direction against this script is profitable.
Conclusion
This script can suggest us trading direction.
Waiting for pullback can reduce risk, compared to buy stop.
This script does not provide good signals in sideways markets.

GRID RELOADED 1.0Script for grid trading on Bitmex XBTUSD 5min
A quick description for the input parameters. I can detail privately the ones that are important:
Points between two same dir trades = how much the price must change before a new DCA can happen
Points between SHORTS = same for short trades
Global Take Profit points = take profit for all open positions expressed in the same units as the price
Global Stop Loss points = same as for profit
Take Profit points decrease per bar = this is how much the target global profit decreases each bar toward zero
Trend up to start a trade long = wait for the DEMA to show a long slope before opening new long positions
Max long position = max n. of long positions
Check trend on trade = wait for a positive/negative bar before long/short
Min Stochastic overbought/sold for trade = wait for the stochastic to be below/above this before long/short
Limit Orders long % below close price = place limit orders % before current price. the order could be left pending.
DEMA 1 Length = periods of DEMA for trends
HA Candles = toggle a pattern match to enter trades
Impulse Reverse Hit StrategyImplements the Impulse Reverse Hit indicator. A Impulse Reverse trade is a counter-trend type of trading that uses the rubber-band concept.
A rubber-band trade is a type of trade that looks for strong directional price movement. Every stock has its unique combination of parameters that best fit a rubber-band trade, the default parameters of this script is the best fit for the WIN1! and WDO! when used on the 15m timeframe.
Impulse Reverse Strategy TRThis is the strategy for the the "Impulse Reverse TR" indicator, which is an indicator that marks the candles that should be used to star a Impulse Reverse trade. The Impulse Reverse trade is a counter-trend type of trading that uses the mean reversion concept.
A mean reversion trade is a type of trade that looks for price that has moved away significantly from its mean (average) price. Every stock has its unique combination of parameters that best fit the mean reversion, the default parameters of this script is the best fit for the WIN1! 0.55% 0.91% ( IBOV 0.53% 0.82% Mini Future) when used on the 30m timeframe.
