TUE Renko Box/Time TesterThe TUE Renko Box/Time Tester is a technical indicator designed to quantify the frequency of consecutive duplicate timestamps within Renko charts on the TradingView platform. It serves the critical purpose of assessing the prevalence of identical timestamps, a crucial factor for the accurate automation of trading strategies.
The presence of duplicate timestamps can impede the reliability of automated trading systems. This indicator systematically examines Renko bars and identifies instances where successive bars share the same timestamp. The quantified data aids traders and developers in evaluating the quality and suitability of their Renko chart data for algorithmic trading purposes.
To ensure proper speed and precision in automation, traders are advised to run Renko charts on either 1-second or 5-second timeframes. Adjusting the box sizes of Renko charts based on these timeframes is essential.
The objective is to maintain the incidence of duplicate timestamps at levels below 20%, ensuring the robustness and consistency of automated trading strategies. By providing a quantitative analysis of timestamp duplication, this indicator supports traders in optimizing their trading systems for enhanced accuracy and efficiency.
The script will automatically collate only the last two days' worth of data, in order to maintain timestamp integrity. You should be able to view individual seconds on your timestamps, and if they're all reading :00 at the end, then you have ran out of seconds-level data. This is only done with a Premium or higher subscription.
Pine utilities
Get start of previous day on any timeframeUseful on pine scripts which need to identify the start of the previous trading day i.e. from the perspective of today's date - not the previous day on each bar calculation.
Works on any timeframe - which is the whole point as on a daily chart you can simply do time .
VWAP (Any Anchor)Hello Traders,
Introduction:
The Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is a powerful trading indicator used to gauge the average price at which an asset has traded, weighted by volume, over a specific period.
One of the key factors that can significantly impact the effectiveness of VWAP is the concept of "anchoring." In this TradingView indicator script description, we'll explore the concept of anchoring and how it's integrated into a customizable VWAP indicator.
Understanding Anchoring:
Anchoring in VWAP refers to selecting a specific point in time from which the VWAP calculation begins.
This "anchor point" serves as the starting reference for VWAP, and it can substantially impact the indicator's behavior and interpretation.
Anchoring allows traders to adapt VWAP to different trading strategies and scenarios.
Here are some common anchor points used in the script and their significance:
1. Time-Based Anchors: Traders often anchor VWAP to specific times of the trading day, such as the market open (e.g., 9:30 am EST) or close (e.g., 4:00 pm EST).
You could add in the script any time-based anchor you think is relevant for your trading.
2. Event-Based Anchors: Anchoring can also be based on specific market events.
For example, some traders anchor VWAP to events like "3 Consecutive Green Candles" or "Supertrend" direction changes.
Feel free to adapt the script here and add the relevant events-based anchor for your trading.
3. Multi-Timeframe Anchoring: Traders can anchor VWAP on different timeframes, allowing them to analyze price and volume interactions across various horizons.
This flexibility is especially valuable for swing traders adapting to longer-term trends.
Anchor Selection
Traders can choose from various anchor points, including time-based, event-based, and even an "External Connector" for flexibility in adapting VWAP to specific scenarios.
The External connector is the output from another script used in this VWAP script.
Your script may have a condition being “true” whenever a signal is printed - you can use this signal as the anchor for the VWAP.
Conclusion:
Understanding anchoring in VWAP is essential for traders using this indicator effectively.
Choosing and customizing anchor points empowers traders to adapt VWAP to their specific trading styles and strategies.
Whether focused on intraday precision or analyzing longer-term trends, a customizable VWAP indicator with flexible anchoring options can be valuable to your trading toolkit.
Tailor your VWAP to your unique needs and gain deeper insights into market trends and price action.
Made with love

syminfo tableThis is nothing special, and it is not an indicator for investments.
I build this for my programming layout, so I can see all the output of the syminfo command.
Simply put...
It shows the commands on the left side,
and related outputs are on the right side.
TradingView.To Strategy Template (with Dyanmic Alerts)Hello traders,
If you're tired of manual trading and looking for a solid strategy template to pair with your indicators, look no further.
This Pine Script v5 strategy template is engineered for maximum customization and risk management.
Best part?
This Pine Script v5 template facilitates the dynamic construction of TradingView.TO alerts, sparing users the time and effort of mastering the TradingView.TO syntax and manually create alert commands.
This powerful tool gives much power to those who don't know how to code in Pinescript and want to automate their indicators' signals via TradingView.TO bot.
IMPORTANT NOTES
TradingView.TO is a trading bot software that forwards TradingView alerts to your brokers (examples: Binance, Oanda, Coinbase, Bybit, Metatrader 4/5, ...) for automating trading.
Many traders don't know how to create TradingView.TO dynamically-compatible alerts using the data from their TradingView scripts.
Traders using trading bots want their alerts to reflect the stop-loss/take-profit/trailing-stop/stop-loss to break options from your script and then create the orders accordingly.
This script showcases how to create TradingView.TO alerts dynamically.
TRADINGVIEW ALERTS
1) You'll have to create one alert per asset X timeframe = 1 chart.
Example: 1 alert for BTC/USDT on the 5 minutes chart, 1 alert for BTC/USDT on the 15-minute chart (assuming you want your bot to trade the BTC/USDT on the 5 and 15-minute timeframes)
2) Select the Order fills and alert() function calls condition
3) For each alert, the alert message is pre-configured with the text below
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
Please leave it as it is.
It's a TradingView native variable that will fetch the alert text messages built by the script.
4) TradingView.TO uses webhook technology - setting a webhook URL from the alerts notifications tab is required.
KEY FEATURES
I) Modular Indicator Connection
* plug your existing indicator into the template.
* Only two lines of code are needed for full compatibility.
Step 1: Create your connector
Adapt your indicator with only 2 lines of code and then connect it to this strategy template.
To do so:
1) Find in your indicator where the conditions print the long/buy and short/sell signals.
2) Create an additional plot as below
I'm giving an example with a Two moving averages cross.
Please replicate the same methodology for your indicator, whether a MACD , ZigZag, Pivots , higher-highs, lower-lows or whatever indicator with clear buy and sell conditions.
//@version=5
indicator("Supertrend", overlay = true, timeframe = "", timeframe_gaps = true)
atrPeriod = input.int(10, "ATR Length", minval = 1)
factor = input.float(3.0, "Factor", minval = 0.01, step = 0.01)
= ta.supertrend(factor, atrPeriod)
supertrend := barstate.isfirst ? na : supertrend
bodyMiddle = plot(barstate.isfirst ? na : (open + close) / 2, display = display.none)
upTrend = plot(direction < 0 ? supertrend : na, "Up Trend", color = color.green, style = plot.style_linebr)
downTrend = plot(direction < 0 ? na : supertrend, "Down Trend", color = color.red, style = plot.style_linebr)
fill(bodyMiddle, upTrend, color.new(color.green, 90), fillgaps = false)
fill(bodyMiddle, downTrend, color.new(color.red, 90), fillgaps = false)
buy = ta.crossunder(direction, 0)
sell = ta.crossunder(direction, 0)
//////// CONNECTOR SECTION ////////
Signal = buy ? 1 : sell ? -1 : 0
plot(Signal, title = "Signal", display = display.data_window)
//////// CONNECTOR SECTION ////////
Important Notes
🔥 The Strategy Template expects the value to be exactly 1 for the bullish signal and -1 for the bearish signal
Now, you can connect your indicator to the Strategy Template using the method below or that one.
Step 2: Connect the connector
1) Add your updated indicator to a TradingView chart
2) Add the Strategy Template as well to the SAME chart
3) Open the Strategy Template settings, and in the Data Source field, select your 🔌Connector🔌 (which comes from your indicator)
Note it doesn’t have to be named 🔌Connector🔌 - you can name it as you want - however, I recommend an explicit name you can easily remember.
From then, you should start seeing the signals and plenty of other stuff on your chart.
🔥 Note that whenever you update your indicator values, the strategy statistics and visuals on your chart will update in real-time
II) BOT Risk Management:
- Max Drawdown:
Mode: Select whether the max drawdown is calculated in percentage (%) or USD.
Value: If the max drawdown reaches this specified value, set a value to halt the bot.
- Max Consecutive Days:
Use Max Consecutive Days BOT Halt: Enable/Disable halting the bot if the max consecutive losing days value is reached.
- Max Consecutive Days: Set the maximum number of consecutive losing days allowed before halting the bot.
- Max Losing Streak:
Use Max Losing Streak: Enable/Disable a feature to prevent the bot from taking too many losses in a row.
- Max Losing Streak Length: Set the maximum length of a losing streak allowed.
Margin Call:
- Use Margin Call: Enable/Disable a feature to exit when a specified percentage away from a margin call to prevent it.
Margin Call (%): Set the percentage value to trigger this feature.
- Close BOT Total Loss:
Use Close BOT Total Loss: Enable/Disable a feature to close all trades and halt the bot if the total loss is reached.
- Total Loss ($): Set the total loss value in USD to trigger this feature.
Intraday BOT Risk Management:
- Intraday Losses:
Use Intraday Losses BOT Halt: Enable/Disable halting the bot on reaching specified intraday losses.
Mode: Select whether the intraday loss is calculated in percentage (%) or USD.
- Max Intraday Losses (%): Set the value for maximum intraday losses.
Limit Intraday Trades:
- Use Limit Intraday Trades: Enable/Disable a feature to limit the number of intraday trades.
- Max Intraday Trades: Set the maximum number of intraday trades allowed.
Restart Intraday EA:
III) Order Types and Position Sizing
- Choose between market or limit orders.
- Set your position size directly in the template.
Please use the position size from the “Inputs” and not the “Properties” tab.
I know it's redundant. - the template needs this value from the "Inputs" tab to build the alerts, and the Backtester needs it from the "Properties" tab.
IV) Advanced Take-Profit and Stop-Loss Options
- Choose to set your SL/TP in either USD or percentages.
- Option for multiple take-profit levels and trailing stop losses.
- Move your stop loss to break even +/- offset in USD for “risk-free” trades.
V) Miscellaneous:
Retry order openings if they fail.
Order Types:
Select and specify order type and price settings.
Position Size:
Define the type and size of positions.
Leverage:
Leverage settings, including margin type and hedge mode.
Session:
Limit trades to specific sessions.
Dates:
Limit trades to a specific date range.
Trades Direction:
Direction: Specify the market direction for opening positions.
VI) Logger
The TradingView.TO commands are logged in the TradingView logger.
You'll find more information about it in this TradingView blog post .

Multiple Vertical LinesThis script allows you to have multiple vertical lines on your chart (for seeing how price action performs around certain times of interest to you.
You can adjust the code to add new lines or colours as you wish (or comment out any that are there if they don't suit you.
There is also a shaded area, so you can use that for delineating an amount of time.
The indicator is currently set to New York time, but you can adjust this to suit you.
ProfitView Strategy TemplateHello traders,
This script took me a full week of coding/testing, sweat, and tears - and I’m too nice as I’m giving it for free to the community.

"
Don't forget that you can use any Moving Average not only for the chart but also for any of your indicators without affecting the code as in my example.
But remember that some MAs are not designed to work with anything other than a chart.
All MA and Code lists are sorted strictly alphabetically by short name (A-Z).
Each MA has its own number (ID) by which you can display the Moving Average you need.
Next to the ID selection there are tooltips with short names and their numbers. Use them.
The panel below will help you to read the Name of the selected MA.
Because of the size of the collection I think this is the optimal and most convenient use. Correct me if this is not the case.
Unknown - Some MAs I collected so long ago that I lost the full real name and couldn't find the authors. If you recognize them, please let me know.
I have deliberately simplified all MAs to input just Source and Length.
Because the collection is so large, it would be quite inconvenient and difficult to customize all MA functions (multipliers, offset, etc.).
If you need or like any MA you will still have to take it from my collection for your code.
I tried to leave the basic MA settings inside function in first strings.
I have tried to list most of the authors, but since the bulk of the collection was created a long time ago and was not intended for public publication I could not find all of them.
Some of the features were created from scratch or may have been slightly modified, so please be careful.
If you would like to improve this collection, please write to me in PM.

This script showcases how to create Pineconnector alerts dynamically.
Pineconnector doesn't support alerts with multiple Take Profits.
As a workaround, for 2 TPs, I had to open two trades.
It's not optimal, as we end up paying more spreads for that extra trade - however, depending on your trading strategy, it may not be a big deal.
TRADINGVIEW ALERTS
1) You'll have to create one alert per asset X timeframe = 1 chart.
Example: 1 alert for EUR/USD on the 5 minutes chart, 1 alert for EUR/USD on the 15-minute chart (assuming you want your bot to trade the EUR/USD on the 5 and 15-minute timeframes)
2) Select the Order fills and alert() function calls condition
3) For each alert, the alert message is pre-configured with the text below
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
Please leave it as it is.
It's a TradingView native variable that will fetch the alert text messages built by the script.
4) Don't forget to set the Pineconnector webhook URL in the Notifications tab of the TradingView alerts UI.
You’ll find the URL on the Pineconnector documentation website.
EA CONFIGURATION
1) The Pyramiding in the EA on Metatrader must be set to 2 if you want to trade with 2 TPs => as it's opening 2 trades.
If you only want 1 TP, set the EA Pyramiding to 1.
Regarding the other EA settings, please refer to the Pineconnector documentation on their website.
2) In the EA, you can set a risk (= position size type) in %/lots/USD, as in the TradingView backtest settings.
KEY FEATURES
I) Modular Indicator Connection
* plug in your existing indicator into the template.
* Only two lines of code are needed for full compatibility.
Step 1: Create your connector
Adapt your indicator with only 2 lines of code and then connect it to this strategy template.
To do so:
1) Find in your indicator where the conditions print the long/buy and short/sell signals.
2) Create an additional plot as below
I'm giving an example with a Two moving averages cross.
Please replicate the same methodology for your indicator, whether it's a MACD , ZigZag , Pivots , higher-highs, lower-lows, or whatever indicator with clear buy and sell conditions.
//@version=5
indicator("Supertrend", overlay = true, timeframe = "", timeframe_gaps = true)
atrPeriod = input.int(10, "ATR Length", minval = 1)
factor = input.float(3.0, "Factor", minval = 0.01, step = 0.01)
= ta.supertrend(factor, atrPeriod)
supertrend := barstate.isfirst ? na : supertrend
bodyMiddle = plot(barstate.isfirst ? na : (open + close) / 2, display = display.none)
upTrend = plot(direction < 0 ? supertrend : na, "Up Trend", color = color.green, style = plot.style_linebr)
downTrend = plot(direction < 0 ? na : supertrend, "Down Trend", color = color.red, style = plot.style_linebr)
fill(bodyMiddle, upTrend, color.new(color.green, 90), fillgaps = false)
fill(bodyMiddle, downTrend, color.new(color.red, 90), fillgaps = false)
buy = ta.crossunder(direction, 0)
sell = ta.crossunder(direction, 0)
//////// CONNECTOR SECTION ////////
Signal = buy ? 1 : sell ? -1 : 0
plot(Signal, title = "Signal", display = display.data_window)
//////// CONNECTOR SECTION ////////
Important Notes
🔥 The Strategy Template expects the value to be exactly 1 for the bullish signal and -1 for the bearish signal
Now, you can connect your indicator to the Strategy Template using the method below or that one.
Step 2: Connect the connector
1) Add your updated indicator to a TradingView chart
2) Add the Strategy Template as well to the SAME chart
3) Open the Strategy Template settings, and in the Data Source field, select your 🔌Connector🔌 (which comes from your indicator)
Note it doesn’t have to be named 🔌Connector🔌 - you can name it as you want - however, I recommend an explicit name you can easily remember.
From then, you should start seeing the signals and plenty of other stuff on your chart.
🔥 Note that whenever you update your indicator values, the strategy statistics and visuals on your chart will update in real-time
II) Customizable Risk Management
- Choose between percentage or USD modes for maximum drawdown.
- Set max consecutive losing days and max losing streak length.
- I used the code from my friend @JosKodify for the maximum losing streak. :)
Will halt the EA and backtest orders fill whenever either of the safeguards above are “broken”
III) Intraday Risk Management
- Limit the maximum intraday losses both in percentage or USD.
- Option to set a maximum number of intraday trades.
- If your EA gets halted on an intraday chart, auto-restart it the next day.
IV) Spread and Account Filters
- Trade only if the spread is below a certain pip value.
- Set requirements based on account balance or equity.
V) Order Types and Position Sizing
- Choose between market, limit, or stop orders.
- Set your position size directly in the template.
Please use the position size from the “Inputs” and not the “Properties” tab.
Reason : The template sends the order on the same candle as the entry signals - at those entry signals candles, the position size isn’t computed yet, and the template can’t then send it to Pineconnector.
However, you can use the position size type (USD, contracts, %) from the “Properties” tab for backtesting.
In the EA, you can define the position size type for your orders in USD or lots or %.
VI) Advanced Take-Profit and Stop-Loss Options
- Choose to set your SL/TP in either pips or percentages.
- Option for multiple take-profit levels and trailing stop losses.
- Move your stop loss to break even +/- offset in pips for “risk-free” trades.
VII) Logger
The Pineconnector commands are logged in the TradingView logger.
You'll find more information about it in this TradingView blog post .
WHY YOU MIGHT NEED THIS TEMPLATE
1) Transform your indicator into a Pineconnector trading bot more easily than before
Connect your indicator to the template
Create your alerts
Set your EA settings
2) Save Time
Auto-generated alert messages for Pineconnector.
I tested them all, and I checked with the support team what could/can’t be done
3) Be in Control
Manage your trading risks with advanced features.
4) Customizable
Fits various trading styles and asset classes.
REQUIREMENTS
* Make sure you have your Pineconnector license ID.
* Create your alerts with the Pineconnector webhook URL
* If there is any issue with the template, ask me in the comments section - I’ll answer quickly.
BACKTEST RESULTS FROM THIS POST
1) I connected this strategy template to a dummy Supertrend script.
I could have selected any other indicator or concept for this script post.
I wanted to share an example of how you can quickly upgrade your strategy, making it compatible with Pineconnector.
2) The backtest results aren't relevant for this educational script publication.
I used realistic backtesting data but didn't look too much into optimizing the results, as this isn't the point of why I'm publishing this script.
This strategy is a template to be connected to any indicator - the sky is the limit. :)
3) This template is made to take 1 trade per direction at any given time.
Pyramiding is set to 1 on TradingView.
The strategy default settings are:
* Initial Capital: 100000 USD
* Position Size: 1 contract
* Commission Percent: 0.075%
* Slippage: 1 tick
* No margin/leverage used
WHAT’S COMING NEXT FOR YOU GUYS?
I’ll make the same template for ProfitView, then for AutoView, and then for Alertatron.
All of those are free and open-source.
I have no affiliations with any of those companies - I'm publishing those templates as they will be useful to many of you.

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

Heatmap MACD Strategy - Pineconnector (Dynamic Alerts)Hello traders
This script is an upgrade of this template script.
Heatmap MACD Strategy
Pineconnector
Pineconnector is a trading bot software that forwards TradingView alerts to your Metatrader 4/5 for automating trading.
Many traders don't know how to dynamically create Pineconnector-compatible alerts using the data from their TradingView scripts.
Traders using trading bots want their alerts to reflect the stop-loss/take-profit/trailing-stop/stop-loss to breakeven options from your script and then create the orders accordingly.
This script showcases how to create Pineconnector alerts dynamically.
Pineconnector doesn't support alerts with multiple Take Profits.
As a workaround, for 2 TPs, I had to open two trades.
It's not optimal, as we end up paying more spreads for that extra trade - however, depending on your trading strategy, it may not be a big deal.
TradingView Alerts
1) You'll have to create one alert per asset X timeframe = 1 chart.
Example : 1 alert for EUR/USD on the 5 minutes chart, 1 alert for EUR/USD on the 15-minute chart (assuming you want your bot to trade the EUR/USD on the 5 and 15-minute timeframes)
2) For each alert, the alert message is pre-configured with the text below
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
Please leave it as it is.
It's a TradingView native variable that will fetch the alert text messages built by the script.
3) Don't forget to set the webhook URL in the Notifications tab of the TradingView alerts UI.
EA configuration
The Pyramiding in the EA on Metatrader must be set to 2 if you want to trade with 2 TPs => as it's opening 2 trades.
If you only want 1 TP, set the EA Pyramiding to 1.
Regarding the other EA settings, please refer to the Pineconnector documentation on their website.
Logger
The Pineconnector commands are logged in the TradingView logger.
You'll find more information about it from this TradingView blog post
Important Notes
1) This multiple MACDs strategy doesn't matter much.
I could have selected any other indicator or concept for this script post.
I wanted to share an example of how you can quickly upgrade your strategy, making it compatible with Pineconnector.
2) The backtest results aren't relevant for this educational script publication.
I used realistic backtesting data but didn't look too much into optimizing the results, as this isn't the point of why I'm publishing this script.
3) This template is made to take 1 trade per direction at any given time.
Pyramiding is set to 1 on TradingView.
The strategy default settings are:
Initial Capital: 100000 USD
Position Size: 1 contract
Commission Percent: 0.075%
Slippage: 1 tick
No margin/leverage used
For example, those are realistic settings for trading CFD indices with low timeframes but not the best possible settings for all assets/timeframes.
Concept
The Heatmap MACD Strategy allows selecting one MACD in five different timeframes.
You'll get an exit signal whenever one of the 5 MACDs changes direction.
Then, the strategy re-enters whenever all the MACDs are in the same direction again.
It takes:
long trades when all the 5 MACD histograms are bullish
short trades when all the 5 MACD histograms are bearish
You can select the same timeframe multiple times if you don't need five timeframes.
For example, if you only need the 30min, the 1H, and 2H, you can set your timeframes as follow:
30m
30m
30m
1H
2H
Risk Management Features
All the features below are pips-based.
Stop-Loss
Trailing Stop-Loss
Stop-Loss to Breakeven after a certain amount of pips has been reached
Take Profit 1st level and closing X% of the trade
Take Profit 2nd level and close the remaining of the trade
Custom Exit
I added the option ON/OFF to close the opened trade whenever one of the MACD diverges with the others.
Help me help the community
If you see any issue when adding your strategy logic to that template regarding the orders fills on your Metatrader, please let me know in the comments.
I'll use your feedback to make this template more robust. :)
What's next?
I'll publish a more generic template built as a connector so you can connect any indicator to that Pineconnector template.
Then, I'll publish a template for Capitalise AI, ProfitView, AutoView, and Alertatron.
Thank you
Dave
Heatmap MACD StrategyHello traders
A customer gave me the idea indirectly after I made an update to that script:
Supertrend MTF Heatmap
Important Notes
The backtest results aren't relevant for this educational script publication.
I used realistic backtesting data but didn't look too much into optimizing the results, as this isn't the point of why I'm publishing this script.
I wanted to showcase that any Heatmap script can be converted into a strategy.

Position Size: 1 contract
Commission Percent: 0.075%
Slippage: 1 tick
No margin/leverage used
For example, those are realistic settings for trading CFD indices with low timeframes, but not the best possible settings for all assets/timeframes.

EQ LEVELS / EquilibriumWhat is it, How to use it, How to adjust the settings? What Calculates EQ Level?
What is it?
EQ, Equilibrium, In the money market, the term "equilibrium" or "equilibrium" refers to the point at which supply and demand are equalised. At this point, money supply and money demand meet each other and interest rates stabilise at a certain level. Equilibrium in the money market reflects the overall financial balance in the economy
According to What Calculates the EQ Level?
Normally, there may be many different alternatives to this, but I have printed the result on the screen by adding the highest and lowest levels of the prices and averaging them to think of a simple solution.
How to use it?
I have added 4 timeframes for both long-term investors and traders to use. If you want to use which timeframe, you can select the timeframe you want from the settings and see it on the chart. For those who want to trade, my suggestion is to follow the daily eq levels and of course look at the weekly eq levels. The weekly eq level can give you an idea of what kind of price range the next day may be in.
How to Make Settings?
When you first add the indicator to the chart, it draws a line. You change it to a circle or plus in the settings, it will look like the picture I shared. I also share open source code and can make changes in the code.
Nedir?, Nasıl Kullanılır?, Ayarları Nasıl Yapılır? EQ Seviyesini Neye Göre Hesaplar?
Nedir?:
EQ yani Equilibrium, Para piyasasında "denge" veya "equilibrium" terimi, arz ve talebin eşitlendiği noktayı ifade eder. Bu noktada, para arzı ile para talebi birbirini karşılar ve faiz oranları belirli bir seviyede dengelenir. Para piyasasındaki denge, ekonomideki genel finansal dengeyi yansıtır
EQ Seviyesini Neye Göre Hesaplar?
Normalde bunun farlı bir çok alternatifi olabilir ama ben biraz basit bir çözüm düşünmek için fiyatların en yüksek ve en düşük seviyelerini toplayarak ve ortalamasını alarak çıka sonucu ekrana yazdırdım.
Nasıl Kullanılır?
Hem uzun vadeli yatırım yapanlar hem de trade yapanların kullanabilmesi için 4 zaman dilimi ekledim. Hangi zaman dilimini kullanmak istiyorsanız ayarlardan istediniz zaman dilimini seçip onu grafikte görebilirsiniz. Trade yapmak isteyenler için önerim günlük eq seviyelerini takip etmeleri ve tabiki haftalık eq seviyelerine bakın. Haftalık eq seviyesi size bir sonra ki günün nasıl bir fiyat aralığı içerisinde olabileceği konusunda fikir verebilir.
Ayarları Nasıl Yapılır?
Grafiğe indikatörü ilk eklediğiniz de çizgi çizdirir. Siz ayarlardan onu daire veya artı olarak değiştirin benim paylaştığım resimde ki gibi görünecektir. Ayrıca açık kaynak kodlu paylaşıyorum isteyen kod içerisinde değişiklikler yapabilir.
AMT: Gamma Levels PlotterAMT: Custom Levels Plotter Indicator
Purpose:
This indicator is designed to allow users to directly visualize custom price levels and their associated labels on a trading chart by copying and pasting data from the Gamma spreadsheet.
Features and Functionalities:
Direct Input from Gamma Spreadsheet:
Users can effortlessly copy rows of data from the Gamma spreadsheet and paste them into the indicator's input field. Each row should represent a price level followed by a tab (\t) and its associated label. There's no need for any adjustments or formatting changes; the indicator handles it all.
Label Size Selection:
A dropdown menu lets users select the desired size for the labels. Options include "Tiny", "Small", "Normal", and "Large".
Merge Levels Option:
A checkbox determines if labels for identical price levels should be merged. When activated, labels for the same price will consolidate; otherwise, they'll display individually.
Dynamic Visualization:
A horizontal line represents the specified price level on the chart.
An adjacent label displays the associated text.
If the "Merge Levels" option is active and there are multiple labels for the same price, they merge into one.
Automatic Cleanup:
The script automatically removes all previously plotted lines and labels before drawing the new set. This ensures the chart only displays the most recent set of levels and remains uncluttered.
Efficient Data Handling:
The indicator uses the levels and counts arrays to track unique price levels and their counts. This aids in accurately positioning labels, especially when merging is enabled.
Debugging Feature:
For diagnostic purposes, the indicator plots the size of the levels array. This helps monitor the array's growth and ensures it remains within expected limits.
Earnings LevelsI am proud to announce that the formerly secret "Key Earnings Levels" graphing tool will be freely available to TradingView users whereas before it was only available by monthly or annual subscription since its invention here at TradingView many years ago by Tim West. TradingView code writers wrote the original code for using this powerful tool and then Johannes Falkenburg re-wrote the code several years ago.
The most important FOUR days a year in a stock chart are the days that the company gives its quarterly update. Since the GRAND majority of companies have earnings, the indicator is called the "Key Earnings Level", or KEL for short. The unique part of the release of the quarterly update is that it can be "before the open" or "after the close" and the price action leading up to the earnings and immediately after the earnings are useful for future reference, as you'll see shortly.
The Key Earnings indicator plots a triangle for the range around the day before and the day after earnings and draws a mid-point line to capture the over/under level for that report. That mid-point line is then extended into the future for a minimum of one quarter until the next earnings report and as long as a year with the current code.
This triangle plot allows you to see how a stock is trading RELATIVE TO where it was trading when earnings were announced and when a glimpse into the current quarter along with projections for the upcoming year.
Simply put: Key Earnings Levels are the easiest way to see how a stock is doing relative to the most important four days a year.
You can devise your own trading strategies around these levels, but I want you to have this information so you can see it and know it too. I've kept this little secret of Key Hidden Levels to myself and my followers in the Key Hidden Levels Chat Room here at TradingView for far too long. I have occasionally published charts with the Key Earnings Levels but have not made the code freely available to TradingView subscribers.
If anyone has paid me for access to these indicators and wants a refund, I will be glad to do that. This is too important to keep from everyone any longer. I think it is essential to make this available to everyone to make sure we all have the most advantage we can get when investing and trading in the markets.
I hope you can all find the powerful benefit from using Key Earnings Levels and please thank Johannes Falkenburg aka @Vollchaot here at TradingView for writing the latest version of this code.
The idea itself came from using TradingView and the powerful graphing and layout features here to track our observations and to do research. Thank you TradingView for such a great product.
I look forward to answering any questions.
Sincerely,
Tim West
Paytience DistributionPaytience Distribution Indicator User Guide
Overview:
The Paytience Distribution indicator is designed to visualize the distribution of any chosen data source. By default, it visualizes the distribution of a built-in Relative Strength Index (RSI). This guide provides details on its functionality and settings.
Distribution Explanation:
A distribution in statistics and data analysis represents the way values or a set of data are spread out or distributed over a range. The distribution can show where values are concentrated, values are absent or infrequent, or any other patterns. Visualizing distributions helps users understand underlying patterns and tendencies in the data.
Settings and Parameters:
Main Settings:
Window Size
- Description: This dictates the amount of data used to calculate the distribution.
- Options: A whole number (integer).
- Tooltip: A window size of 0 means it uses all the available data.
Scale
- Description: Adjusts the height of the distribution visualization.
- Options: Any integer between 20 and 499.
Round Source
- Description: Rounds the chosen data source to a specified number of decimal places.
- Options: Any whole number (integer).
Minimum Value
- Description: Specifies the minimum value you wish to account for in the distribution.
- Options: Any integer from 0 to 100.
- Tooltip: 0 being the lowest and 100 being the highest.
Smoothing
- Description: Applies a smoothing function to the distribution visualization to simplify its appearance.
- Options: Any integer between 1 and 20.
Include 0
- Description: Dictates whether zero should be included in the distribution visualization.
- Options: True (include) or False (exclude).
Standard Deviation
- Description: Enables the visualization of standard deviation, which measures the amount of variation or dispersion in the chosen data set.
- Tooltip: This is best suited for a source that has a vaguely Gaussian (bell-curved) distribution.
- Options: True (enable) or False (disable).
Color Options
- High Color and Low Color: Specifies colors for high and low data points.
- Standard Deviation Color: Designates a color for the standard deviation lines.
Example Settings:
Example Usage RSI
- Description: Enables the use of RSI as the data source.
- Options: True (enable) or False (disable).
RSI Length
- Description: Determines the period over which the RSI is calculated.
- Options: Any integer greater than 1.
Using an External Source:
To visualize the distribution of an external source:
Select the "Move to" option in the dropdown menu for the Paytience Distribution indicator on your chart.
Set it to the existing panel where your external data source is placed.
Navigate to "Pin to Scale" and pin the indicator to the same scale as your external source.
Indicator Logic and Functions:
Sinc Function: Used in signal processing, the sinc function ensures the elimination of aliasing effects.
Sinc Filter: A filtering mechanism which uses sinc function to provide estimates on the data.
Weighted Mean & Standard Deviation: These are statistical measures used to capture the central tendency and variability in the data, respectively.
Output and Visualization:
The indicator visualizes the distribution as a series of colored boxes, with the intensity of the color indicating the frequency of the data points in that range. Additionally, lines representing the standard deviation from the mean can be displayed if the "Standard Deviation" setting is enabled.
The example RSI, if enabled, is plotted along with its common threshold lines at 70 (upper) and 30 (lower).
Understanding the Paytience Distribution Indicator
1. What is a Distribution?
A distribution represents the spread of data points across different values, showing how frequently each value occurs. For instance, if you're looking at a stock's closing prices over a month, you may find that the stock closed most frequently around $100, occasionally around $105, and rarely around $110. Graphically visualizing this distribution can help you see the central tendencies, variability, and shape of your data distribution. This visualization can be essential in determining key trading points, understanding volatility, and getting an overview of the market sentiment.
2. The Rounding Mechanism
Every asset and dataset is unique. Some assets, especially cryptocurrencies or forex pairs, might have values that go up to many decimal places. Rounding these values is essential to generate a more readable and manageable distribution.
Why is Rounding Needed? If every unique value from a high-precision dataset was treated distinctly, the resulting distribution would be sparse and less informative. By rounding off, the values are grouped, making the distribution more consolidated and understandable.
Adjusting Rounding: The `Round Source` input allows users to determine the number of decimal places they'd like to consider. If you're working with an asset with many decimal places, adjust this setting to get a meaningful distribution. If the rounding is set too low for high precision assets, the distribution could lose its utility.
3. Standard Deviation and Oscillators
Standard deviation is a measure of the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of values. In the context of this indicator:
Use with Oscillators: When using oscillators like RSI, the standard deviation can provide insights into the oscillator's range. This means you can determine how much the oscillator typically deviates from its average value.
Setting Bounds: By understanding this deviation, traders can better set reasonable upper and lower bounds, identifying overbought or oversold conditions in relation to the oscillator's historical behavior.
4. Resampling
Resampling is the process of adjusting the time frame or value buckets of your data. In the context of this indicator, resampling ensures that the distribution is manageable and visually informative.
Resample Size vs. Window Size: The `Resample Resolution` dictates the number of bins or buckets the distribution will be divided into. On the other hand, the `Window Size` determines how much of the recent data will be considered. It's crucial to ensure that the resample size is smaller than the window size, or else the distribution will not accurately reflect the data's behavior.
Why Use Resampling? Especially for price-based sources, setting the window size around 500 (instead of 0) ensures that the distribution doesn't become too overloaded with data. When set to 0, the window size uses all available data, which may not always provide an actionable insight.
5. Uneven Sample Bins and Gaps
You might notice that the width of sample bins in the distribution is not uniform, and there can be gaps.
Reason for Uneven Widths: This happens because the indicator uses a 'resampled' distribution. The width represents the range of values in each bin, which might not be constant across bins. Some value ranges might have more data points, while others might have fewer.
Gaps in Distribution: Sometimes, there might be no data points in certain value ranges, leading to gaps in the distribution. These gaps are not flaws but indicate ranges where no values were observed.
In conclusion, the Paytience Distribution indicator offers a robust mechanism to visualize the distribution of data from various sources. By understanding its intricacies, users can make better-informed trading decisions based on the distribution and behavior of their chosen data source.
Signal ComposerThis Signal Composer script can compose existing signals from other "Signal Indicators" into one and can forward it to the "Template Trailing Strategy".
It allows the user to combine the logic of two signals and define the conditions that will trigger the start, end, cancel start, and cancel end deals of the produced signal. A signal will be composed from those user-defined conditions.
For example, one signal indicator may have the main logic and the other the filter logic. If you want to combine more signals you may add two Signal Composer scripts and pipe the output of the first composer to the second one.
This is the "main building block" of creating a bit more complex strategies without writing any code.
The "indicator on indicator" feature is needed so you can forward the resulting signal to the "Template Trailing Strategy" so that you can set take profits, stop losses, custom alerts, and all other nifty features this framework provides.
Thus, you should be a Plus or Premium user to get its full potential. It is very convenient for those who want to create a strategy without coding their own signal indicator and for those who want to fast-prototype various ideas based on simple but composable conditions.
It can nicely be combined with the "Signal Adapter" which combines simple (non-signal) indicators and produces a signal. This is a recipe to build fast and backtest more complex strategy logic.
This approach has a fail-fast mentality! Keep, in mind that you can code a single signal indicator with your composed logic later on only if the idea turns out to be "good enough".
Time Session Filter - MACD exampleTime Session Filter in TradingView Strategy: A Comprehensive Guide
Welcome to this educational TradingView blog where we dive deep into the functionality and utility of the time session filter in trading strategies. It's interesting to note that the time session filter is a commonly overlooked feature in Pine Script, often not integrated into overall trading strategies. Yet, when used wisely, this tool can significantly enhance your trading approach. In essence, the session filter ensures that trades are only made within a specific, user-defined time frame. By incorporating this often-neglected building block, you can make your strategy more adaptable to various market conditions and trading preferences.
What is a Time Session Filter?
A time session filter is designed to:
Select Times of the Day to Trade: The filter allows you to choose specific hours during the day in which trades are allowed to be excecuted.
Toggle Days to Trade: You can decide which days of the week you want to trade, giving you the flexibility to avoid days that are historically not profitable for your strategy.
Close Trade When Session Ends: The filter can automatically close any open trade once the specified time session concludes, reducing the risk associated with holding positions outside your chosen time frame.
The user interface is streamlined, taking minimal space for the input sections, making it convenient to integrate with other indicators in your overall strategy script. In addition the script colors the background of the chart green when the timesession filter is on and makes the background red when the filter doesn't allow any trades. This helps you to visualise the selected timeframes in relation to chart patterns.
Best Practices for Time Selection
From my personal trading experience I share some input settings you can try to play around with:
Stocks: Trading stocks sometimes yield better results if you only trade in the mornings until lunchtime. This is the period when markets are generally more active, and traders are keenly participating.
Cryptocurrencies: For cryptocurrencies, it sometimes makes sense to avoid trading on Fridays, a day when futures contracts often expire. Various other market-moving events also typically occur on Fridays.
Random Selection: Interestingly, sometimes choosing a random selection of times and days can improve the script's performance, adding an element of unpredictability that might outperform more systematic approaches.
Strategy Overview
This strategy script incorporates various elements, including risk position size and MACD indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy. For a detailed explanation of risk position sizing, please refer to this article:

Educational Purposes and Risks
Please note that this script is for educational purposes and serves merely as an example of how to incorporate a time session filter into a trading strategy for pinescript. It is a simplified strategy without a fixed stop-loss, which can result in higher exposure to significant losses. The time session filter can be a powerful addition to your trading strategy, providing you with the tools to tailor your approach according to time-specific market conditions. By understanding its functionalities and best practices, you can make more informed trading decisions, but always remember that trading carries inherent risks.
Happy trading!
Signal AdapterThis Signal Adapter script can compose a signal based on inputs from other simple (non-signal) indicators and can forwards it to the "Template Trailing Strategy".
It allows the user to combine up to eight external inputs and define the conditions that will trigger the start, end, cancel start and cancel end deals.
A signal will be composed from those user-defined conditions. The "indicator on indicator" feature is needed so you can forward the resulted signal to the "Template Trailing Strategy".
Thus you should be Plus or Premium user to get it's full potential. It is very convenient for those who want to create a strategy without coding their own signal indicator and for those
who want to fast prototype various ideas based on simple conditions.
[TTI] MarketSmith & IBD Style Model Stock Quarters 📜 ––––HISTORY & CREDITS––––
The MarketSmith & IBD Style Model Stock Quarters another Utility indicator is an original creation by TintinTrading inspired by Investor's Business Daily and William O'Neil style of presenting information. While going through the Model Stocks that IBD has been publishing, I realized that I wanted to see the exam same Quarterly presentation on the time axis in order to compare William O'Neil notes better with my own notes from Tradingview. The script is simple and could help you if you study the CANSLIM methodology.
🦄 –––UNIQUENESS–––
The distinctiveness of this indicator lies in its ability to visually delineate stock quarters directly on the price chart. It serves as a handy tool for traders who adopt a quarterly review of stock performance, in line with MarketSmith and IBD's analysis frameworks.
🛠️ ––––WHAT IT DOES––––
Quarter Marking : Draws a black line at the beginning of each financial quarter (January, April, July, and October).
Quarter Labeling : Places a label at the close of the last month in a quarter, indicating the upcoming quarter with its abbreviation and the last two digits of the year.
💡 ––––HOW TO USE IT––––
👉Installation: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart by searching for " MarketSmith & IBD Style Model Stock Quarters" in the indicator library.
👉Add to New Pane and squash the Pane Length: I add the indicator to a new pane under the price and volume charts and squash the height of the pane so that it looks exactly like the MarketSmith visuals.
👉Visual Cues:
Look for the black lines marking the start of a new quarter.
Observe the labels indicating the upcoming quarter and year, positioned at the close of the last month in a quarter.
👉Interpretation: Use these quarterly markers to align your trading strategies with quarterly performance metrics or to conduct seasonal analysis.
👉Settings: The indicator does not require any user-defined settings, making it straightforward to use.
[TTI] Closing Range Indicator📜 ––––HISTORY & CREDITS––––
This Pine Script Utility indicator, titled " Closing Range Indicator," is designed and developed by TintinTrading but inspired by the teaching of Investor's Business Daily (IBD) and William O'Neil. It aims to help traders identify the closing range of a given timeframe, either daily or weekly.
🦄 –––UNIQUENESS–––
The unique feature of this indicator lies in its ability to simulate a functionality of Closing Range calculation based on hovering of the mouse over the close. It employs a conditional display that allows the user to set the indicator as 'invisible' without removing it from the chart and hence provides a numerical closing range value when hovering over the indicator.
🛠️ ––––WHAT IT DOES––––
The Closing Range Indicator calculates the closing range of a trading bar in terms of percentages. It computes the difference between the closing price and the low price of the bar, and then divides it by the range of the bar.
A stock that closes on the high would display 100%
A stock that closes on the low would display 0%
Generally, the higher the percentage the more bullish the close but there are exceptions to this rule.
The indicator can operate on two timeframes:
Daily : Computes the closing range based on the daily high, low, and closing prices.
Weekly : Computes the closing range based on the weekly high, low, and closing prices. If you enable the weekly it will show the weekly close on all daily timeframes. Meaning that if the week Closing range is 54.15% on Friday, it will show the value 54.15% for all days prior to Friday from the same week.
The indicator places a label at the close of each bar, with the label's tooltip showing the calculated closing range percentage. I generally hide the label and just reference the tooltip calculation with a a hoover on top of the bar.
💡 ––––HOW TO USE IT––––
Installation: Add the indicator to your TradingView chart by searching for " Closing Range Indicator" in the indicator library.
Reorder: Reorder the indicator so that it sits as the first indicator (even above the price) on the Pane. This will make sure that you always trigger the tooltip functionality.
Go to Settings:
Timeframe: Choose between daily ('D') and weekly ('W') timeframes from the settings.
Visibility: Enable the 'Make Invisible' option if you want the indicator to be hidden.
Interpretation:
A higher percentage indicates that the closing price is closer to the high of the range, signaling bullish sentiment.
A lower percentage indicates bearish sentiment.
Tooltip: Hover over the label to view the closing range in percentage terms.
Map exampleUsing Maps collections:
This code manipulates support and resistance lines using maps collection.
We normally maintain array/udt of lines and related properties to segregate lines as support and or resistance.
With introduction of maps the same can be achieved without creating lines array/udt.
What does this code do:
1. Plot support and resistance lines based on ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow()
2. When price crosses support line, the line is marked as resistance and color is changed to resistance line color and style is changed to dotted line (support turned resistance). Also the width of the line is set based on number of crosses. Finally the support/resistance line is removed when number of times price crossing the line reaches max allowed crosses (input parameter)
Where maps are used:
1. map_sr_cross - Number of times the support/resistance lines has been crossed by price
2. map_sr_type - R=resistance, S=support
3. color_map - color for support and resistance lines
4. style_map - line styles. Support/resistance lines as solid style and support turned resistance/resistance turned support lines as dotted style.
