Indicators & Conditions Test Framework [DTU]Hello All,
This script is a framework to build strategies by combining indicators and conditions (long, short, exits). You are able to analyze your strategies in realtime by changing the input parameters related to indicators, conditions and their combinations.
OVERVIEW
With this Study/Strategy framework, you will be able to create strategy conditions, display them on the chart, and test them using existing indicators as well as external and custom indicators that you can add.
The main purpose of the Framework is to choose your indicators to be used in the conditions and test your strategy by producing your "Long, short, Exit long, Exit short" combinations.
Although may be, it can be a bit difficult and complicated at first start, but you can understand the logic on its use in a very short time.
Notes:
I removed external links off descriptive images and video to be comply with Trading view violation House Rules
Since I am new in the community and still trying to understand the pine script language I can make errors and violations on my script. Please Inform me on any issue that I made..
HOW TO
STEP 1: SETTINGS ______________________________________________________________________________________________________
SOURCE, TIMEFRAME, SECURITY
Select the Source, timeframe and Secure type that your indicators will use.
Here, the Secure entry consists of 3 parts and the f_security function is used to determine it.
a)Secure
This option is defined as reducing repaint in tradingview calculations as much as possible. The following function is used.
request.security(_symbol, _res, _src , lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on)
b)Semi Secure
While this option can reduce repaint in tradingview calculations as much as possible, it is less secure. The following function is used.
request.security(_symbol, _res, _src )
c)Repaint
This option turns on the repaint feature. The following function is used.
request.security(_symbol, _res, _src ) : na
Ind Source:
You can the source that indicators will use their own calculations
Ext Source:
You can import external Indicator sources from here . It appears on condition/combination area as "EXT".
To export the External indicator plot it with a title. It will be visible in source dropdown input
PERIOD , ALERTS...
Period:
Determine your strategy testing period by selecting start and end date/time
(!!! According to your tradingview subscription, it takes the last 5000, 10000.. bars.
The extra bar option may cause problems such as not appearing in the calculations or errors).
Plot Alerts:
Plot condition result as alerts arrows on the chart's bottom for "LONG" and the top for "SHORT" entries, exits
Close on opposite:
When selected, a long entry gets closed when a short entry opens and vice versa
Show Profit:
It appears if script is in strategy mode (not in study) this can display current or open profit for better reanalyzing your strategy entry exit points. (Currently under development)
PLOT TYPE OPERATIONS
This option has 4 entries
a) Mult
Sets the multiplier for the selected Plot Type (stochastic, Percentrank, Org Range (-1,1) ) except for "Original" in the range (-1,1).
EXAMPLE: When 1000 is selected, the indicator in the range of (-1,1) will appear in the range of (-1000, 1000) on the screen.
b) Shift
It determines the shift that will appear on the screen for the selected Plot Type (stochastic, Percentrank,Org Range (-1,1) ) in the range (-1,1) other than "Original".
EXAMPLE: When Shift:35000 and mult:1000 are selected, the indicator will appear in the range (34000, 36000) on the screen.
c) Smooth
This option (only for Stochastic & PercentRank) allows to smooth the indicator to be displayed.
Here, tradinview ta.swma function is used.
b) hline
Adjusts the horizontal lines to appear on the screen according to the mult factor for the range (-1,1)
The lines represent the values (-1, -05, 0, 05, 1)
STEP 2: INDICATORS ______________________________________________________________________________________________________
You need to choose indicators that you can use in strategy conditions.
Here, the indicators come from the dturkuler/lib_Indicators_DT open script library defined in the code
In addition, you can add the indicators that you will create in the area defined in the code to this list..
You can also import external indicators and test them with other variables on the system..
You can choose a maximum of 5 indicators that you can use in total. (can be increased in new versions)
Indicators are categorized in 3 main sections
Indicator Selection:
You can select your indicators from this area
a)Moving Averages
These are indicators such as EMA, SMA that you can show on the stock. They come from the library.
These indicators are fed from Settings/source. Only the length value can be used as a parameter.
In addition, line colors can be changed..
As of now, there are 28 indicators in the library in total and 5 indicators are left as future use for this field for now.
b)Other Indicators
These are different indicators from the stock value such as RSI, COG. They come from the library. These indicators are fed from Settings/source.
Only the length value can be used as a parameter. In addition, line colors can be changed.
As of now, there are 24 indicators in the library in total and 5 indicators are left as a future use for this field for now.
c)Custom Indicators
These indicators are the ones you can create by programming yourself in the source code..
The area at the bottom of the settings screen is reserved for the parameters of this type of indicators.
Indicator Length:
You can update your selected indicator length value from here. (Not: it doesn't work for custom indicators since they have their parameter on cust. Ind. input screen )
Indicator Plot Type:
Next to the indicators, there is an input selection field about how they will be displayed on the screen.
a)Original
The indicator is displayed on the screen with its current values. It is an ideal solution for displaying moving average indicators such as (EMA, SMA) over current stock.
Since the values of indicators such as (RSI, COB) are low (-100,100 : -1.1), they appear at the bottom of the screen and make analysis difficult.
For this reason, other options may be more suitable for these.
b)Stochastic
The indicator is displayed on the screen with stochastic calculation in the range of -1.1.
It uses the stochastic(50) calculation method to spread indicators such as (RSI, COB) over the range (-1,1).
Indicators in this selection can be fixed and monitored under stock on the screen with the parameters under the Plot Type section.
You can see the original values of the relevant indicator on the Data Window screen.
(!!! Do not use the values on the chart in your condition calculations. Instead, get the values from Data Window)
c)PercentRank
The indicator is displayed on the screen with stochastic calculation in the range of -1.1. .
Since the values of indicators such as (RSI, COB) are low (-100,100 : -1.1), they appear at the bottom of the screen and make analysis difficult.
Indicators in this selection can be fixed and monitored under stock on the screen with the parameters under the Plot Type section.
You can see the original values of the relevant indicator on the Data Window screen
((!!! Do not use the values on the chart in your condition calculations. Instead, get the values from Data Window)
d)Org Range (-1,1)
If your indicator is in the range of -1.1, your indicator will be displayed on the screen with its original calculation in the range of -1.1.
Indicators in this selection can be fixed and monitored under stock on the screen with the parameters under the Plot Type section.
You can see the original values of the relevant indicator on the Data Window screen.
(!!! Do not use the values on the chart in your fitness calculations. Instead, get the values from Data Window)
STEP 2 NOTES:
STEP 3: CONDITIONS ______________________________________________________________________________________________________
After choosing the indicators you will use in the conditions, you move on to the "CONDITIONS" section.
There are 4 conditions type here.
• LONG ENTRY CONDITION
• SHORT ENTRY CONDITION
• LONG CLOSE CONDITION
• SHORT CLOSE CONDITION
The use of each condition is the same.
There are 3 combinations you can use in each condition. (can be increased in new versions)
a)COMBINATIONS
There are 3 combinations you can use in each condition. (can be increased in new versions)
Each combination are build from 4 parts
1)1st Indicator
If set to "NONE" this combination will not be used on calculations. You can select
IND1-5: from indicators (See above),
EXT: value from externally imported indicator
Stock built-in values: close, open...
2)Operator
Selected Operator compares 1st Indicator with the 2nd one. You can select different operators such as
crossover, crossunder, cross,>,<,=....
3)2nd Indicator
This indicator will be compared with the 1st one via selected Operator. You can select
IND1-5: from indicators (See above),
VALUE: a float value defined in the combinations value parameter
EXT: value from externally imported indicator
Stock builtin values: close,open...
4)Value
When the 2nd indicator field is "VALUE", value area compares the entered value.
ex: 1st indicator="open", op=">", 2nd indicator="VALUE", value=3000.12 means is(close>3000.12)
In other conditions, it compares the previous values of the indicator.
ex: 1st indicator="open", op=">" 2nd indicator is "close" and value is 2 means is(open>close )
EXAMPLES:
indicator 1= "IND1", Operator=">", indicator 2= "IND2" => is(IND1>IND2)
indicator 1= "IND1", Operator=">", indicator 2= "VALUE", "0.1" => is(IND1>0.9)
indicator 1= "IND2", Operator="crossover", indicator 2= "IND1" => is(IND2 crossover IND1) : like a=ta.crossover(IND2, IND1)
indicator 1= "IND1", Operator="<", indicator 2= "close" => is(IND1>close)
indicator 1= "IND1", Operator="<", indicator 2= "EXT" => is(IND1>EXT) , EXT mean external imported indicator that define on settings section
indicator 1= "IND1", Operator="<", indicator 2= "IND1", Value="1" => is (IND1>IND1 )
b)JOIN COMBINATIONS
Each combination in Condition is compared with the next one via JOIN operator
The join operator can be selected as AND or OR.
Examples:
1st combination= is(IND1>0.9) true
2nd combination= is(IND2 crossover IND1) false
1st combination "AND" 2ndcombination" => false (is(IND1>0.9) AND is(IND2 crossover IND1))
1st combination "OR" 2nd combination" => true (is(IND1>0.9) OR is(IND2 crossover IND1))
STEP 3 NOTES:
When the 2nd indicator field is "VALUE", value area compares the entered value. In other conditions, it compares the previous values of the indicator.
In cases where "VALUE" is not selected, integer values must be entered in this field. (float should not be entered. ie 1, 2 should be entered)
!!!If the 1st indicator is "NONE" in the combination, that combination is cancelled.
Each combination returns true/false, allowing the selected value to be compared with another value
Example: EMA(21)>EMA(50) returns true under all conditions or (EMA(21) crossover EMA(50)) returns true when passed.
You can use , Value of 5 indicators (IND1-IND5) or (VALUE) that you have defined in combinations or import indicator (EXT) or stock values (close, open, high...) in your calculations.
combination Compares the 1st indicator with 2nd indicator via the operator.
STEP 4: CUSTOM INDICATORS ______________________________________________________________________________________________________
There is an area in the code for designing Custom Indicators.
Here you can design your own indicators and use them in the framework.
You can also create unlimited parameters for your indicators in the SETTINGS custom indicator field.
For now, only 3 Custom indicators have been defined.
Examples are entered in the code for custom indicators.
STEP 4 NOTES:
Including / updating custom to the code is explained in the source code
• LIMITATIONS:
!!! According to your tradingview subscription, it takes the last 5000, 10000.. bars. More bar options may cause problems such as not appearing in the calculations or errors.
• RAMBLINGS:
• NOTES [ /i]
This Script can be used as an indicator if the last strategy parts in the code are commented out and converted to the initial strategy study.
It was originally prepared for my use with my own strategy framework and has export functions accordingly.
When integrated to my own strategy framework it brings many more features over strategy definition of trades.
• TODO [ /i]
TODO: Add tooltips to the settings screen
TODO: Add double triple, Quatr factor for all indicators (convert any indicator to factor2-4 facotr. ex: EMA to DEMA, TEMA, QEMA...)
TODO: Add factorized Fibo avg range indicator (good for trend definition and entry exit points)
TODO: Add bands to the indicator and conditions
TODO: Add debug window for exporting indicator's parameters
TODO: Add isRising(value) isFalling(value), is...(value) .... to combinations (they can be used as custom indicator also
TODO: Reassess condition entry screen for user friendly GUI
TODO: Increase # conditions from 3 to 4
TODO: Reassess strategy entries, exit and close (should be improved)
TODO: Add Alerts, Condiional alerts for indicator (study) part
TODO: Create export function v3 for Pinecoders Indicator framework

STRATEGY TESTER ENGINE - ON CHART DISPLAY - PLUG & PLAYSo i had this idea while ago when @alexgrover published a script and dropped a nugget in between which replicates the result of strategy tester on chart as an indicator.
So it seemed fair to use one of his strategy to display the results.
This strategy tester can now be used in replay mode like an indicator and you can see what happen at a particular section of the chart which was is not possible in default strategy tester results of TV.
Please read how each result is calculated so you will know what you are using.
This engine shows most common results of strategy tester in a single screen, which are as follows:
1. Starting Capital
2. Current Profit Percentage
3. Max Profit Percentage
4. Gross Profit
5. Gross Loss
6. Total Closed Trades
7. Total Trades Won
8. Total Trades Lost
9. Percentage Profitable
10. Profit Factor
11. Current Drawdown
12. Max Drawdown
13. Liquidation
So elaborating on what is what:
1. Starting Capital - This stays 0, which signifies your starting balance as 0%. It is set to 0 so we can compare all other results without any change in variables. If set to 100, then all the results will be increased by 100. Some users might find it useful to set it to 100, then they can change code on line 41 from to and it should show starting balance as 100%.
2. Current Profit Percentage - This shows your current profit adjusted to current price of the candle, not like TV which shows after candle is close. There is a comment on the line 38 which can be removed and your can see unrealized profit as well in this section. Please note that this will affect Draw-down calculations later in this section.
3. Max Profit Percentage - This will show you your max profit achieved during your strategy run, which was not possible yet to see via strategy tester. So, now you can see how much profit was achieved by your strategy during the run and you can compare it with chart to see what happens during bull-run or bear-run, so you can further optimize your strategy to best suit your desired results.
4. Gross Profit - This is total percentage of profit your strategy achieved during entire run as if you never had any losses.
5. Gross Loss - This is total percentage of loss your strategy achieved during entire run as if you never had any profits.
6. Total Closed Trades - This is total number of trades that your strategy has executed so far.
7. Total Trades Won - This is the total number of trades that your strategy has executed that resulted in positive increase in equity.
8. Totals Trades Lost - This is the total number of trades that your strategy has executed that resulted in decrease in equity.
9. Percentage Profitable - This is the ratio between your current total winning trades divided by total closed trades, and finally multiplied by 100 to get percentage results.
10. Profit Factor - This is the ratio between Gross Profit and Gross Loss, so if profit factor is 2, then it indicates that you are set to gain 2 times per your risk per trade on average when total trades are executed.
11. Current Drawdown - This is important section and i want you to read this carefully. Here draw-down is calculated very differently than what TV shows. TV has access to candle data and calculates draw-down accordingly as per number of trades closed, but here DD is calculated as difference between max profit achieved and current profit. This way you can see how much percentage you are down from max peak of equity at current point in time. You can do back-test of the data and see when peak was achieved and how much your strategy did a draw-down candle by candle.
12. Max Drawdown - This is also calculated differently same as above, current draw-down. Here you can see how much max DD your strategy did from a peak profit of equity. This is not set as max profit percentage is set because you will see single number on display, while idea is to keep it custom. I will explain.
So lets say, your max DD on TV is 30%. Here this is of no use to see Max DD , as some people might want to see what was there max DD 1000 candles back or 10 candle back. So this will show you your max DD from the data you select. TV shows 25000 candle data in a chart if you go back, you can set the counter to 24999 and it will show you max DD as shown on TV, but if you want custom section to show max DD , it is now possible which was not possible before.
Also, now let's say you put DD as 24999 and open a chart of an asset that was listed 1 week ago, now on 1H chart max DD will never show up until you reach 24999 candle in data history, but with this you can now enter a manual number and see the data.
13. Liquidation - This is an interesting feature, so now when your equity balance is less than 0 and your draw-down goes to -100, it will show you where and at what point in time you got liquidated by adding a red background color in the entire section. This is the most fun part of this script, while you can only see max DD on TV.

How to Use -
1 word, plug and play. Yes. Actual codes start from line 33.
select overlay=false or remove it from the title in your strategy on first line,
Just copy the codes from line 33 to 103,
then go to end section of your strategy and paste the entire code from line 33 to line 103,
see if you have any duplicate variable, edit it,
Add to chart.
What you see above is very contracted view. Here is how it looks when zoomed in.

Create A StratThis indicator is free to all Oasis Trading Group members.
Create A Strat is an indicator that allows you to do just that - create your own strategy.
You can select from an EMA, Bollinger Band, VWAP and candle as each source.
You can program it to alert you when the desired condition occurs.
Some possible examples include:
Candle closes above Bollinger band
EMA crosses VWAP
Two EMAs cross
EMA crosses any part of the Bollinger Band (upper/mid/lower - all user selectable)
Visual alerts are given as well as actual alerts you may set.
In addition, Create A Strat is useful because Tradingview's strategy tester is known to repaint and give misinformation when it comes to your strategy. Using Create A Strat will allow you to backtest your chosen strategy without issue.
