L2 Candle Pattern ScalperLevel: 2
Background
Japanese candlesticks provide more detailed and accurate information about price movements compared to bar charts. They provide a graphical representation of the supply and demand behind the price promotions for each period. Each candlestick contains a central part that indicates the distance between the opening and closing of the security being traded, the area called the body.
Scalping is a trading strategy that aims to take advantage of minor changes in the stock price. Traders using this strategy place anywhere from 10 to a few hundred trades in a single day with the belief that small moves in the stock price are easier to catch than large ones. Traders who implement this strategy are known as scalpers. Lots of small wins can easily lead to big wins if a strict exit strategy is used to prevent big losses.
Function
L2 Candle Pattern Scalper utilizes candle pattern to decide long and short entry signal. It use inherent candles' relationship nearby to judge the market trend is up or down and decide to long or short.
Signal
buysmall --> long entry
exitred --> short entry
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. its response is fast because OHLC candle is the raw source of market
2. it is suitable for scalping because it studies nearby candles to judge very short term trend change
Cons:
1. Mid-long term change is missing from this indicator, although I use fast and slow lines to indicate the mid-term trend.
2. No stop loss or take profit scheme is introduced.
Remarks
This is promising but need efforts to refine it.
Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
Scalping
Amazing scalper for majors with risk managementHello,
Today I am glad to bring you an amazing simple and efficient scalper strategy.
Best suited for 1M time frame and majors currency pairs.
Its made of :
Ema (exponential moving average) , long period 25
Ema(exponential moving average) Predictive, long period 50,
Ema(exponential moving average) Predictive, long period 100
Risk management , risking % of equity per trade using stop loss and take profits levels.
Long Entry:
When the Ema 25 cross up through the 50 Ema and 100 EMA. and we are in london or new york session( very important the session, imagine if we have only american or european currencies, its best to test it)
Short Entry:
When the Ema 25 cross down through the 50 Ema and 100 EMA, and we are in london or new york session( very important the session, imagine if we have only american or european currencies, its best to test it)
Exit:
TargetPrice: 5-10 pips
Stop loss: 9-12 pips
Hope you enjoy it :)
Full strategy AllinOne with risk management MACD RSI PSAR ATR MAHey, I am glad to present you one of the strategies where I put a lot of time in it.
This strategy can be adapted to all type of timecharts like scalping, daytrading or swing.
The context is the next one :
First we have the ATR to calculate our TP/SL points. At the same time we have another rule once we enter(we enter based on % risk from total equity, in this example 1%, at the same time, lowest ammount for this example is 0.1 lots, but can be modified to 0.01), so we can exit both by tp/sl points, or by losing 1% of our equity or winning 1% of our total equity. It's dinamic.
The strategy is made from
Trend direction :
PSAR
First confirmation point :
Crossover between 10EMA and Bollinger bands middle point
Second confirmation
MACD histogram
Third confirmation
RSI overbought/oversold levels
For entries : we check trend with psar, then once ema cross bb middle point, we confirm together with rsi level for overbought/oversold and macd histogram ( > 0 or <0).
We exit, when we have opposite sign, like from buy to sell or sell to buy, or when we reach tp/sl points, or when we reach % basaed equity points.
It can be changed to be fixed lots, or fixed tp/sl , you just have to uncomment the size from entries, and tp/sl lines.
At the same time, it has the possibility if one desires, to trade only concrete forex session like european, asian and so on for intraday trading.
Hope you enjoy it.
Let me know how it goes.
Candle checker for long/short for scalping/day tradingHey.
This strategy is still in working.
For it I check a x amount of candles in the past if they been for example all red/green in row, and based on that I enter. For example candle 7 < candle 6 .... candle 3 < candle 2 .... candle 1 < candle current for long and viceversa for short.
After that,once the trade is initiated, I exit based on 2 possibilities : candle color is different than the color of candle when entry, or based tp/sl.
Let me know what you think of it.
I will try to make the process to calculate automatically and input the number of candles to check like 5-10-15 and so on.
Scalpy MFI*Modified version of my Scalpy indicator replacing RSI with MFI*
It is made up of a 2 main parts.
- The cloud comprising of a 10 period SMA and a 30 period SMA .
- When the cloud is green you should be looking for long entries.
- When the cloud is red you should be looking for short entries.
- Price is most bullish above a green cloud and most bearish below a red cloud.
- Being within the cloud indicates indecision.
The red line represents the MFI
Ehlers Bandpass FilterThis script uses @cheatcountry script to determine Ehlers Bandpass Filter.
Backtest offers 3 capital management tools. One that will always calculate order size as initial capital/close, one that uses the same calculation but adds or substracts profit. The last one allows you to enter manually the size you want to trade.
The time-based stop will close the position after a set number of bars.

Three EMA Scalp Signals by kmderhamThis script looks for a set up condition where 5 consecutive candles have broken away from the fast EMA (set to 8 by default) followed by a "trigger" candle that crosses back over the fast EMA but not the medium EMA (set to 13 by default). It then determines the entry point based on the bar high or low (not tail or wick) depending on direction of the trend. Once the entry point is crossed, we can enter the position. Win or loss is determined whether the lower or upper levels are crossed (as per trend). After the position is won or lost and if the entry level is re-crossed before a new set up condition is found then a new entry signal is given.
Please note that this should really be used in conjunction with a higher timeframe "Anchor" chart with a fast and a slow EMA so setups and positions should should correspond to the trend of the higher timeframe chart. This was designed for a 5 minute timeframe and a 60 minute anchor chart.
Ehlers BandPass Filter [CC]The BandPass Filter was created by John Ehlers (Cycle Analytics For Traders pgs 56-57) and this indicator only works well in choppy markets so I figured it would be useful for the scalpers out there. As you will notice it correctly identifies the peaks and valleys in the underlying stock data but it doesn't work as well when the stock is trending. The black line is a leading signal for the indicator and so I use that as the basis for the buy and sell signals. Make sure to experiment with this one and let me know if you find any better buy and sell signals to work with since I believe this is the first time I have seen this script published. Buy when the line turns green and sell when it turns red.
Let me know if there are other indicators you would like to see me publish or if you want something custom done!
Ehlers Super PassBand Filter [CC]The Super PassBand Filter was created by John Ehlers (Stocks & Commodities V. 34:07 (10–13)) and this is a pretty useful indicator to let you know how volatile the market is right now. This is useful for scalpers because this lets you avoid the choppy markets (usually when the rms is 1.50 or less but feel free to choose your own level) and gives you good entry and exit points. Buy when the indicator line is green and sell when it is red.
Let me know if there are other indicators you would like to see me publish or if you want something custom done!
Ehlers Alternate Signal To Noise Ratio [CC]The Alternate Signal To Noise Ratio was created by John Ehlers (Rocket Science For Traders pgs 84-85) and this is a variation of his signal to noise ratio that some scalpers might find more useful than his default signal to noise ratio. You would want to buy and sell when the indicator is above the dotted line because that means the stock is volatile enough to maximize any movement of the trade in either direction. Buy when the indicator line is green and sell when it is red.
Let me know if there are other indicators you would like to see me publish or if you want something custom done!
NSDT MidlineSimple script to plot the Midpoint between the High and Low of day for intraday trading. This is a key level that is respected quite often. Very easy to trade bounces or breakthroughs.
Intraday BUY/SELLBUY & SELL Scalp Signals for Crude Oil Future Contracts (Or it can be used with any scrip with good amount of Volume) based on Sma & RSI overbought/oversold alert (!) for possible reversal indication.
Take Buy position only if candle breaks the high of alert candle & for Sell positions, take position if candle breaks low of the alert candle.
Best to perform with 3 min timeframe on Crude Oil Futures
ADD for SPX intraday (NYSE Adv-Decl) -Tom1traderThis is the NYSE Advancers - decliners which the SPX pretty much follows. You can chart it like any index (ADD -NYSE $ADV MINUS $DECL) but I find it more useful in a separate panel with colors for direction.
The level gives an idea of days move (example: plus or minus 500 is not much movement through the session) but I follow the direction as when more stocks advance (green) or decline (red) the index tends to track it pretty closely.
On SPX, SPY and correlateds - very useful for intra-day trading (Scalping or 0DTE option trades) but not for higher time frames at all. If you chart the ADD in a chart and compare 5 minute to daily you will see what I mean.
I left it at 5 minutes timeframe which displays well on any intraday chart. You can change it by changing the "5" in the security function on line 13 to what you want ("1" 1 minute, "15" 15 minutes) or change it to timeframe.period (no quotes) so that it will follow the timeframe of the current chart. I like 5 min as it displays better on higher timeframes i.e. 15 min. or hour.
A simple moving average with a length of 10 is added to help gauge momemtum.
Hope this helps with trading or scripting ideas, questions or feed back welcome. Keep Smiling.
{INDYAN} RSI + MACDModded RSI and MACD for intraday use. If rsi above 60 and macd is above zero line then go for buy and if rsi is below 40 and macd below zero line then go for sell side. use it in small timeframe i.e. 3 minute or less.
better for scalp trading
Happy Trading
Love INDYAN
#It can be used best with INDYAN Go With Trend
cATRpillerThis indicator is used to identify range breakouts using an ATR multiplier. My first script, Im sure there are indies out there like this, but this my favorite way to identify breakouts and trends.
BTC Co-Relation v1Calculate Pearson-correlation-coefficient of selected cryptocurrency with Bitcoin average price of 10 different exchanges.
This is helpful in scalping(at least for me), by using this we can find co-relation between a cryptocurrency and Bitcoin .
Here we are using Bitcoin average price of 10 different exchanges.
It is an oscillator with minimum value -1 and maximum value +1.
👉-1 means current selected cryptocurrency price is completely out of relation with Bitcoin price, means Bitcoin price increasing and it's price decreasing or Bitcoin price decreasing and it's price increasing in selected time-frame.
👉+1 means current selected cryptocurrency price is completely in co-relation with Bitcoin price, means Bitcoin price increasing and it's price also increasing or Bitcoin price decreasing and it's price also decreasing in selected time-frame.
Happy trading 👍.
NSDT Scalping ChannelThis script uses the highs and lows of the candles (instead of the close) to make a "channel" to reference while scalping.
Use the green lower line as a guide to go long and the red upper line as a guide to go short. You may use the lines as potential entry points and direction but you may want to consider exiting before the opposite colored line prints, as that may be too late. As always, entries and exits are at the discretion of each trader.
You will need to adjust the "Line Spacing" settings as you change instruments, chart timeframes, and/or volatility increases/decreases.
eha MA CrossIn the study of time series, and specifically technical analysis of the stock market, a moving-average cross occurs when, the traces of plotting of two moving averages each based on different degrees of smoothing cross each other. Although it does not predict future direction but at least shows trends.
This indicator uses two moving averages, a slower moving average and a faster-moving average. The faster moving average is a short term moving average. A short term moving average is faster because it only considers prices over a short period of time and is thus more reactive to daily price changes.
On the other hand, a long term moving average is deemed slower as it encapsulates prices over a longer period and is more passive. However, it tends to smooth out price noises which are often reflected in short term moving averages.
There are a bunch of parameters that you can set on this indicator based on your needs.
Moving Averages Algorithm
You can choose between three types provided of Algorithms
Simple Moving Average
Exponential Moving Average
Weighted Moving Average
I will update this study with more educational materials in the near future so be informed by following the study and let me know what you think about it.

eha Moving Averages StrategyMoving Average based strategies are very popular ones among both long-term investors and short-term traders as they can be tailored to any time frame. One of the main moving average strategies are crossovers. The very simple type is a price crossover , which is when the price crosses above or below a moving average to signal a potential change in trend.
Another strategy is to apply two moving averages to a chart: one longer (or slow) and one shorter (or fast). When the shorter-term MA crosses above the longer-term MA, it's a buy signal, as it indicates that the trend is shifting up (also known as “ Golden Cross ”). Meanwhile, when the shorter-term MA crosses below the longer-term MA, it's a sell signal, as it indicates that the trend is shifting down (which is also known as “ Dead/Death Cross ”).
This is a study to find a suitable trading strategy for 4-6 hour time frames. As you can see the performance is currently very poor. It has just generated almost 90 trades in a very long period from January 2017 to the time of publishing the study for the first time.
Moving averages work quite well in strong trending conditions but poorly in choppy or ranging conditions. Adjusting the time frame can correct this problem temporarily, although, at some point, these issues are likely to occur regardless of the time frame chosen for the moving average(s).
I am working on this basic strategy to make its performance better and I will update the post in the future. So keep in touch by following the post.
Why have I republished my study?
It sounds like TradingView stores and indexes scripts based on the title of the post rather than the actual title of the scripts and if one chose general terms as the title of the post, the TradingView script search engine may be unable to find it. So I decided to repost the strategy with a more searchable and unique prefix of " eha ".
Please provide me with your precious feedback.

The blue and white lines on the indicator show the relationship between price and momentum.
They can be used to spot reversals in two ways:
- The first is a divergence between price (blue line) and RSI (white line)
- If the price makes a lower low but the RSI makes a higher low this shows the trend is weakening and may be reversing soon (as can be seen by the two yellow lines on the chart).
The second is a simple crossover:
- When the white line crosses the blue line to the upside this signals a long entry.
- When the white line crosses the blue line to the downside this signals a short entry.
