Percent Calculator (Return On Investment Target Price)First and foremost: I was inspired to publish my first script after reading some of the other member's scripts -a token of my appreciation and support, Thank You.
The percent calculator is a very simple and basic indicator to use, it''s function is to simply output the target price from either the close or ones trade-entry based on a desired percent return on investment (R.O.I.).
Say you want to profit 15% from your entry: simply plug in your entry value and the number 15 into the appropriate settings and the indicator displays what the target price should be (rounded to two decimal places).
The percent calculator also goes one step further by finding the average percent return on investment over a desired interval of time (the default is 20 candles) as well as allows one to adjust the size of the price move the average percent return on investment is being calculated for.
Say you want to find the average percent return on investment for a 3 candle swing over a 200 candle interval of time: simply plug the number 200 into the interval setting and the number 3 into the price-move setting and the indicator displays what the average 3 candle swing returns on investment.
Practical Application: comparing ones desired return on investment to the average return on investment can help determine how realistic ones goals are... it's unlikely to achieve 100% return on investment if the average is only around 10% (given the parameters one is working within) but on the other hand achieving 5% return on investment is highly likely.

Short in Bollinger Band Down trend (Weekly and Daily) // © PlanTradePlanMM
// 6/14/2020
// ---------------------------------------------------
// Name: Short in Bollinger Band Down trend (Weekly and Daily)
// ---------------------------------------------------
// Key Points in this study:
// 1. Short in BB Lower band, probability of price going down is more than 50%
// 2. Short at the top 1/4 of Lower band (EMA - Lower line), Stop is EMA, tartget is Lower line; it matches risk:/reward=1:3 naturally
//
// Draw Lines:
// BB Lower : is the Target (Black line)
// BB EMA : is the initial Stop (Black line)
// ShortLine : EMA - 1/4 of (Stop-target), which matches risk:/reward=1:3
// Prepare Zone : between EMA and ShortLine
// shortPrice : Blue dot line only showing when has Short position, Which shows entry price.
// StopPrice : Black dot line only showing when has Short position, Which shows updated stop price.
//
// Add SMA50 to filter the trend. Price <= SMA, allow to short
//
// What (Condition): in BB down trend band
// When (Price action): Price cross below ShortLine;
// How (Trading Plan): Short at ShortLine;
// Initial Stop is EMA;
// Initial Target is BB Lower Line;
// FollowUp: if price moves down first, and EMA is below Short Price. Move stop to EMA, At least "make even" in this trade;
// if Price touched Short Line again and goes down, new EMA will be the updated stop
//
// Exit: 1. Initial stop -- "Stop" when down first, Close above stop
// 2. Target reached -- "TR" when down quickly, Target reached
// 3. make even -- "ME" when small down and up, Exit at Entry Price
// 4. Small Winner -- "SM" when EMA below Entry price, Exit when Close above EMA
//
// --------------
// Because there are too many flags in up trend study already, I created this down trend script separately.
// Uptrend study is good for SPY, QQQ, and strong stocks.
// Downtrend Study is good for weak ETF, stock, and (-2x, -3x) ETFs, such as FAZ, UVXY, USO, XOP, AAL, CCL
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Back test Weekly and daily chart for SPY, QQQ, XOP, AAL, BA, MMM, FAZ, UVXY
// The best sample is FAZ Weekly chart.
// When SPY and QQQ are good in long term up trend, these (-2x, -3x) ETFs are always going down in long term.
// Some of them are not allowed to short. I used option Put/Put spread for the short entry.

SSL Crossover + MA choiceThis indicator builds on the SSL channel code by ErwinBeckers @
I have added options for diff MA's to be used in the SSL channel and crossover indicators for buy/sell signals
default MA is set to Arnaud Legaux, but you can set it to whatever you like - original was a Simple Moving Average by ErwinBeckers
The indicator will not repaint as the signals are drawn after close of crossover candles
Let me know if you have any suggestions - happy to add more functionality
inwCoin Martingale Strategy ( for Bitcoin )** Same as my previous martingale script but this version = opensource **
inwCoin Martingale Strategy is the proof of concept strategy that in the end, anyone who using martingale strategy will kaboom their portfolio.
For those who don't know what is "martingale".. it's a simple double down strategy in the hope to cover the loss in previous entry.
Example
In the game that if you win, you'll get 100% of your bet money back.
1st loss = 1$
2nd loss = bet 2$ : if win, get 2$ / real profit = 1$ ( 2-1 )
3rd loss = bet 4$ : if win, get 4$ / real profit = 1$ ( 4 - ( 2+1) )
4th loss = bet 8$ : if win, get 8$ / real profit = 1$ ( 8 - ( 4+2+1 ) )
...
...
10th loss = bet 512$ : if win, get 512$ / real profit = 1$ ( 512 - ( 256+128+64+32+16+8+4+2+1) )
as you can see, the next bet will be first bet x 2^(n-1)
and the profit will equal to your first bet.
==================
In trading and forex EA ( Expert Advisor or bot ) people use this strategy to fool newbies that their martingale system will generate steady income for eternity.
But in reality, this strategy will destroy your whole portfolio eventually some time in the future. Because there will be some "Blackswan event" in market at some point in time. And one who ignore this fact, will lose everything.
But, if you using low risk strategy and generate some profit from your low-risk portfolio. You can take small chunk of that profit and put it in riskier strategy like this martingale, to accerelate your profit snowball.
===================
Parameter Explaination
====================
Price = datasource for indicator calculation
Fixed position size option = if uncheck, the "Start position size" parameter will be % of your initial capital. If checked, it will fixed position size ( like 1 BTC )
Start Position Logic = condition to enter first trade
- MACD singal > 0 : Self explanatory, default macd value
- Stochastic RSI cross up : enter when sto line cross up from bottom ( 20 )
- ATR channel : enter trade if price cross above 2.3 ATR
Take Profit Percent = take profit target % from average entry
Start martingale ..= if price compare to average position entry less than this %, it will start to double down ( martingale )
Martingale Multiplier = you can specific how big you'll double down, default is 2
Trade Direction = long only for now
Use date rang = self explanatory
** make sure to setup your initial capital in properties tab **
On chart
=======
White Line = Average position price
Orange Line = your current equity
If equity less than 0, it will close any remaining positions ( It's mean your position got liquidated )
If price > equity line for "take profit percent" it will close any remaining positions.
=======
As you can see, this strategy survive 2018 drop and pump profit to 1000+% ( Check in the strategy tester tab > list of trades )
But in May 2020 -50% drop in just 3 days, your whole portfolio got liquidated.
Actually, after some digging in profit and backtest result.
This strategy, when it can survive a shape drop, can generate a lot of profit.
So, if you want to use martingale. Make sure to use only small chunk of your profit from "low-risk" strategy to accelerate your profit generation ( aka degen port )
DO NOT greedy and use all of your initial capital or borrowed money to use with this strategy!
QQE signalsConverted the QQE oscillator to in-chart long and short signals with built in alerts. This is multi-timeframe and quite robust.
Mirror MACD by Trader JayThis is my take on the metatrader indicator, the mirror macd. Works pretty good on Forex, haven't tested on anything else
Enter long after the Blue Line Cross Up the Red Line and EXIT after the Green line Cross Up the Red Line (above the Blue Line).
For the opposite position : ENTER SELL after the Red Line Cross Down.
Generalized SSL by Vts// Generalized SSL:
// This is the very first time the SSL indicator, whose acronym I ignore, is on Tradingview.
// It is based on moving averages of the highs and lows.
// Similar channel indicators can be found, whereas
// this one implements the persistency inside the channel, which is rather tricky.
// The green line is the base line which decides entries and exits, possibly with trailing stops.
// With respect to the original version, here one can play with different moving averages.
// The default settings are (10,SMA)

Daily ATR%If You are using a percentage of the Daily Average True Range in determining your stop placement,
this quick indicator is for You.
excerpt from investopedia.com/articles/trading/06/stopplacement.asp
ATR % Stop Method
The ATR% stop method can be used by any type of trader because the width of the stop is determined by the percentage of average true range (ATR). ATR is a measure of volatility over a specified period of time. The most common length is 14, which is also a common length for oscillators such as the relative strength index (RSI) and stochastics. A higher ATR indicates a more volatile market, while a lower ATR indicates a less volatile market. By using a certain percentage of ATR, you ensure that your stop is dynamic and changes appropriately with market conditions.
For example, for the first four months of 2006, the GBP/USD average daily range was around 110 to 140 pips. A day trader may want to use a 10% ATR stop - meaning that the stop is placed 10% x ATR pips from the entry price.In this instance, the stop would be anywhere from 11 to 14 pips from your entry price. A swing trader might use 50% or 100% of ATR as a stop. In May and June of 2006, daily ATR was anywhere from 150 to 180 pips. As such, the day trader with the 10% stop would have stops from entry of 15 to 18 pips while the swing trader with 50% stops would have stops of 75 to 90 pips from entry.

Yon Hybrid Momentum + Breakout Scanner with BB SqueezeThis Pine Script indicator is a comprehensive momentum and breakout scanner that combines multiple technical analysis tools to identify high-probability trading setups. Here's what it does:
Core Features:
1. Trend Identification (EMA System)
Uses two EMAs (9-period fast, 20-period slow) to determine trend direction
Colors the chart background: teal = uptrend, red = downtrend
An uptrend is confirmed when the fast EMA crosses above the slow EMA
2. Volume Analysis
Monitors volume spikes (when current volume exceeds 2x the 20-period average)
Volume spikes often indicate strong institutional interest or breakout momentum
Critical for confirming the validity of price movements
3. Momentum Indicators
MACD (12, 26, 9): Shows bullish/bearish crossovers with triangle markers
RSI (7-period): Identifies overbought (>70) and oversold (<30) conditions
VWAP: Shows the volume-weighted average price (purple line) - helps identify whether price is trading at fair value
4. Bollinger Bands & Squeeze Detection
Displays Bollinger Bands (20-period, 2 standard deviations)
BB Squeeze: Detects when volatility contracts to its lowest level in 20 bars
Squeezes often precede explosive breakout moves (like a coiled spring)
Orange squares appear at the bottom when a squeeze is detected
5. Breakout Detection
The script identifies breakouts using TWO methods:
Price breakout: Close above the recent 20-bar high
BB breakout: Close above the upper Bollinger Band
Confirmed breakout: Must have uptrend + volume spike + one of the above conditions
Shows a green "BREAKOUT" label when all conditions align
6. Live Status Label
A label in the top-right displays real-time market conditions:
Current trend (UPTREND/DOWNTREND)
Volume status (VOL SPIKE/Normal Vol)
RSI condition (HOT/COOL/Neutral)
Squeeze status (if active)
7. Alerts
Two automated alerts:
Breakout Alert: Triggers when a confirmed breakout occurs
Squeeze Alert: Triggers when Bollinger Bands enter a squeeze
Trading Use Cases:
This indicator is ideal for:
Swing traders looking for momentum setups with strong volume confirmation
Breakout traders who want to catch explosive moves after consolidation
Day traders monitoring multiple timeframes for high-probability entries
Watchlist scanning to quickly identify which stocks/cryptos are showing momentum
How to Use It:
Setup Phase: Look for BB squeeze markers (orange squares) - these signal compression
Confirmation: Wait for volume spike + uptrend + MACD bullish crossover
Entry: When "BREAKOUT" label appears with all confirmations
Validation: Price should be above VWAP and RSI not extremely overbought
The script essentially automates the process of finding stocks that are "coiling up" and ready to make a big move, then confirms when that move actually happens with volume.
Momentum Variance OscillatorWhat MVO measures:
-PV (Price-Volume) Oscillator – how far price is from a volatility-scaled basis, then weighted by relative volume.
- > 0 = bullish pressure; < 0 = bearish pressure.
-|PV| larger ⇒ stronger momentum.
-Signal line (EMA of PV) – a smoother track of PV; crossings flag momentum shifts.
-Zero line gradient – instantly shows direction (greenish bull / reddish bear) and strength (paler → stronger).
-Extreme bands (±obLevel) – “hot zone” thresholds; being beyond them = exceptional push.
-Variance histogram – MACD-like view (PV minus slower PV-EMA) to see thrust building vs. fading.
-(Optional) Bar coloring & background tint – paints price bars and/or the panel on key events so you can read the regime at a glance.
-Auto-Tune – searches a grid of (obLevel, weakLvl) pairs and (optionally) auto-applies the best, ranked by CAGR vs. drawdown.
Core signals & how to trade them:
1) Define the regime:
-Bullish regime: PV above 0 and/or PV above Signal; zero line is in bull gradient.
-Bearish regime: PV below 0 and/or PV below Signal; zero line is in bear gradient.
-Action: Prefer trades with the regime (avoid fading strong color/strength unless you have a clear reversal setup).
2) Entries:
Momentum entry:
-Long: PV crosses above Signal while PV > 0.
-Short: PV crosses below Signal while PV < 0.
Breakout/acceleration:
-Long add-on: PV crosses above +obLevel (extreme top) and holds.
-Short add-on: PV crosses below −obLevel (extreme bottom) and holds.
-Histogram confirm: Growing bars in your direction = thrust improving; shrinking/flip = thrust stalling.
3) Exits / risk:
-Soft exit / tighten stops: PV loses the extreme and re-enters inside, or histogram fades/turns against you.
-Hard exit / reverse: Opposite PV↔Signal crossover and PV crosses the zero line.
-Weak zone filter: If |PV| < weakLvl, treat signals as lower quality (smaller size or skip).
4) Practical setup - Suggested defaults (good starting point):
-Signal length: 26
-Volume power: 0.50
-obLevel (extreme): 2.00
-weakLvl: 0.75
-Show histogram & dots: On
-Auto-Tune (recommended)
-Turn Auto-Select Best ON. MVO will scan obLevel 1.50→3.00 (step 0.05) and weakLvl 0.50→1.00 (step 0.05), then use the top-ranked pair (CAGR/(1+MDD)).
-If you want to see the top combos, enable the Optimizer Table (Top-3).
5) Visual options
-Bar Colors: Regime+Strength – bars follow the zero-line gradient (great for quick read).
-Extremes – paint only when beyond ±obLevel.
-Cross Signals – paint only on the bar that crosses an extreme.
-Background on breach: A one-bar tint when PV crosses an extreme.
6) Example playbook:
Long setup:
-Zero line shows bull gradient and PV > 0.
-PV crosses above Signal (entry).
-If PV drives above +obLevel, consider add-on; trail under the last minor swing or use ATR.
-Exit/trim on PV crossing below Signal or histogram turning negative; flatten on a drop through 0.
Short setup mirrors the above on the bear side.
7) Tips to avoid common traps:
-Don’t fade strong extremes without clear confirmation (e.g., PV re-entering inside + histogram flip).
-Respect the weak zone: if |PV| < weakLvl, signals are fragile—size down or wait.
-Align with structure: higher-timeframe trend and SR improve expectancy.
-Instrument personality matters: use Auto-Tune or re-calibrate obLevel/weakLvl across assets/timeframes.
8) Alerts you can set:
-Bull Signal X – PV crossed above Signal
-Bear Signal X – PV crossed below Signal
-Bull Baseline X – PV crossed above 0
-Bear Baseline X – PV crossed below 0
Multi Doji Detector v1 [JopAlgo]Multi Doji Detector v1 — fast pattern pings with real filters
What it does (one line):
Marks reversal/indecision candles (Doji family) and impulse candles (Engulfing, Hammer/Inverted Hammer), with optional ATR and volume filters so you don’t chase every wiggle.
Why it’s useful:
Candles tell you when the auction pauses or flips. This tool spots those moments, but only matters at a level. Use it to time entries at Volume Profile edges and AVWAP—not as a standalone signal.
What you’ll see on the chart
Doji family
Standard Doji (▲ blue above bar)
Dragonfly Doji (● green below bar)
Gravestone Doji (● red above bar)
Long-Legged Doji (▲ orange above bar)
Engulfing
Bullish Engulfing (⬆ teal below bar)
Bearish Engulfing (⬇ purple above bar)
Hammer set
Hammer (⬆ lime below bar)
Inverted Hammer (⬆ fuchsia below bar)
Shapes = heads-up. Your trade still needs location, flow, and a risk plan.
How to use it (the simple playbook)
Location first
Work at Volume Profile v3.2 levels (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) or Anchored VWAP.
No level, no trade.
Flow check (optional but strong)
Use CVDv1: take signals only when Alignment = OK and Absorption ≠ red against your idea.
Pattern = timing
At support (VAL/AVWAP): Bullish Engulfing or Hammer, or a Dragonfly/Standard Doji that gets follow-through up.
At resistance (VAH/AVWAP): Bearish Engulfing, Inverted Hammer, or Gravestone/Standard Doji with follow-through down.
Confirm the bar
Let the signal close. If the next bar rejects the idea, stand down.
Timeframe guidance
1–5m (scalps): Many marks. Keep ATR/volume filters ON. Only take signals at VA edges / Session AVWAP.
15m–1H (intraday): Cleanest. Best combo of signal quality and frequency.
2H–4H (swing): Fewer, stronger signals. Ideal for AVWAP/Composite VP reclaims.
1D+ (position): Use as a heads-up at weekly levels; wait for intraday confirmation to enter.
Entries, exits, risk (quick rules)
Entry:
Long: Bullish Engulfing / Hammer / bullish Doji at support, next bar holds above signal’s high or prints follow-through.
Short: Bearish Engulfing / Inverted Hammer / bearish Doji at resistance, next bar holds below signal’s low or follows through.
Stop:
Longs: below signal low or structure under the level.
Shorts: above signal high or structure over the level.
Targets:
Aim for POC/HVNs or obvious swings. Don’t use the symbol alone as a target.
Pass:
Signals mid-range (no level), or against CVDv1 (Absorption), or when ATR is tiny (fake pokes).
Settings that actually matter
Doji mode
Use Percentage-Based: compares body to full candle range (default 5%).
Off = fixed definition (body < 10% of range).
Tip: If you get too many dojis, lower the %; if too few, raise it slightly.
Engulfing filters
ATR Length (default 14) + Min Size (ATR): require real body expansion.
Volume confirmation: ON = demand above-average volume; reduces noise.
Hammer filters
Wick-to-Body Ratio: default 2.5×; increase for stricter hammers.
ATR Filter: minimum candle size; blocks tiny “toy” candles.
Volume confirmation: ON = better reliability.
Alerts
Toggle Doji Alerts on if you want all doji pings; engulfing/hammer alerts are always available.
Pattern cheatsheet (what they mean at a level)
Standard Doji: indecision → wait for directional close next bar.
Dragonfly (at support): buyers rejected lows → look for long on follow-through.
Gravestone (at resistance): sellers rejected highs → look for short on follow-through.
Long-Legged Doji: big fight → only trade it at a level and with the next bar confirming.
Bullish Engulfing: fresh control shift to buyers; best after a drive into support.
Bearish Engulfing: fresh control shift to sellers; best after a pop into resistance.
Hammer: capitulation then rescue; strongest when the low sweeps a level and closes back above.
Inverted Hammer: rejection from above; needs downside follow-through to matter.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2 : Signals at VAH/VAL/LVNs. Use POC/HVNs for targets.
Anchored VWAP : Reclaims/rejections get much better with a matching candle signal.
CVDv1 : Take signals with flow (ALIGN OK, no Absorption). If Absorption flashes red against your signal, skip it.
Common mistakes this prevents
Taking a “pretty” candle in the middle of nowhere.
Shorting every Gravestone in a real uptrend (ATR expanding, CVD strong).
Ignoring size: Engulfing/Hammer without ATR/volume often fail.
Entering before close: half of false signals vanish by the close.
Practical defaults to start
Doji: Percentage-based ON, 5%
Engulfing: Min size 1.0 ATR, Volume confirm ON
Hammer: Wick/Body 2.5×, ATR filter 0.5, Volume confirm ON
Timeframes: 15m–1H for most assets; 2H–4H for swing
Quick disclaimer
Educational tool, not financial advice. Patterns are timers, not trades by themselves. Always pair with location, flow, and risk.
Hosoda’s CloudsMany investors aim to develop trading systems with a high win rate, mistakenly associating it with substantial profits. In reality, high returns are typically achieved through greater exposure to market trends, which inevitably lowers the win rate due to increased risk and more volatile conditions.
The system I present, called “Hosoda’s Clouds” in honor of Goichi Hosoda , the creator of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator, is likely one of the first profitable systems many traders will encounter. Designed to capture trends, it performs best in markets with clear directional movements and is less suitable for range-bound markets like Forex, which often exhibit lateral price action.
This system is not recommended for low timeframes, such as minute charts, due to the random and emotionally driven nature of price movements in those periods. For a deeper exploration of this topic, I recommend reading my article “Timeframe is Everything”, which discusses the critical importance of selecting the appropriate timeframe.
I suggest testing and applying the “Hosoda’s Clouds” strategy on assets with a strong trending nature and a proven track record of performance. Ideal markets include Tesla (1-hour, 4-hour, and daily), BTC/USDT (daily), SPY (daily), and XAU/USD (daily), as these have consistently shown clear directional trends over time.
Commissions and Configuration
Commissions can be adjusted in the system’s settings to suit individual needs. For evaluating the effectiveness of “Hosoda’s Clouds,” I’ve used a standard commission of $1 per order as a baseline, though this can be modified in the code to accommodate different brokers or preferences.
The margin per trade is set to $1,000 by default, but users are encouraged to experiment with different margin settings in the configuration to match their trading style.
Rules of the “Hosoda’s Clouds” System (Bullish Strategy)
This strategy is designed to capture trending movements in bullish markets using the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator. The rules are as follows:
Long Entry: A long position is triggered when the Tenkan-sen crosses above the Kijun-sen below the Ichimoku cloud, identifying potential reversals or bounces in a bearish context.
Stop Loss (SL): Placed at the low of the candle 12 bars prior to the entry candle. This setting has proven optimal in my tests, but it can be adjusted in the code based on risk tolerance.
Take Profit (TP): The position is closed when the Tenkan-sen crosses below the bottom of the Ichimoku cloud (the minimum of Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B).
Notes on the Code
margin_long=0: Ideal for strategies requiring a fixed position size, particularly useful for manual entries or testing with a constant capital allocation.
margin_long=100: Recommended for high-frequency systems where positions are closed quickly, simulating gradual growth based on realized profits and reflecting real-world broker constraints.

Continuous Accumulation Strategy [DCA] v9🇬🇧 English: Continuous Accumulation Strategy v9.4
This script is a full-featured strategy designed to backtest the "Buy the Dip" or "Dollar Cost Averaging" (DCA) philosophy. Its core feature is the Dynamic Peak Detection logic, which solves the "lock-in" problem of previous versions. Instead of getting stuck on an old high, the strategy constantly adapts to the market by referencing the most recent peak.
Key Features
* Dynamic Peak Detection: You define the "Peak Lookback Period." For example, on a Daily chart, setting it to `5` references the peak of the last business week.
* Stable Order Management: The strategy consistently uses a fixed cash amount (e.g., $100) for each entry, which prevents any runtime errors related to negative equity.
* Publishing-Ready: To meet TradingView's requirement for a backtest report, this strategy executes a symbolic, one-time "dummy trade" (one buy and one sell) at the very beginning of the test period. This first trade should be ignored when analyzing performance , as its only purpose is to enable publication.
How It Works
The main logic follows an adaptive cycle: Find Dynamic Peak -> Wait for a Drop -> Buy on Crossover -> Repeat.
1. Finds the Dynamic Peak: On every bar, it identifies the highest price within your defined lookback period.
2. Calculates the Drop: It constantly calculates the percentage drop from this moving peak.
3. Executes an Entry: The moment the price crosses below a target drop percentage, it executes a buy order.
4. Continuously Adapts: As the price moves, the dynamic peak is constantly updated, meaning the strategy never gets locked and is always ready for the next opportunity.
How to Use This Strategy
* Focus on the Strategy Tester: After adding it to the chart, analyze the Equity Curve, Net Profit, and Max Drawdown to see how this accumulation philosophy would have performed on your favorite asset.
* Optimize Parameters: Adjust the "Peak Lookback Period" and "Drop Percentages" to fit the volatility of the asset you are testing.
This is a tool for testing and analyzing a "buy and accumulate" philosophy. Its main logic does not generate sell signals.
Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP STRAT (Zeiierman/PineIndicators)Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP STRATEGY — Zeiierman × PineIndicators (Pine Script v6)
A pivot-to-pivot Anchored VWAP strategy that adapts to volatility, enters long on bullish structure, and closes on bearish structure. Built for TradingView in Pine Script v6.
Full credits to zeiierman.
Repainting notice: The original indicator logic is repainting. Swing labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) are finalized after enough bars have printed, so labels do not occur in real time. It is not possible to execute at historical label points. Treat results as educational and validate with Bar Replay and paper trading before considering any discretionary use.
Concept
The script identifies swing highs/lows over a user-defined lookback ( Swing Period ). When structure flips (most recent swing low is newer than the most recent swing high, or vice versa), a new regime begins.
At each confirmed pivot, a fresh Anchored VWAP segment is started and updated bar-by-bar using an EWMA-style decay on price×volume and volume.
Responsiveness is controlled by Adaptive Price Tracking (APT) . Optionally, APT auto-adjusts with an ATR ratio so that high volatility accelerates responsiveness and low volatility smooths it.
Longs are opened/held in bullish regimes and closed when the regime turns bearish. No short positions are taken by design.
How it works (under the hood)
Swing detection: Uses ta.highestbars / ta.lowestbars over prd to update swing highs (ph) and lows (pl), plus their bar indices (phL, plL).
Regime logic: If phL > plL → bullish regime; else → bearish regime. A change in this condition triggers a re-anchor of the VWAP at the newest pivot.
Adaptive VWAP math: APT is converted to an exponential decay factor ( alphaFromAPT ), then applied to running sums of price×volume and volume, producing the current VWAP estimate.
Rendering: Each pivot-anchored VWAP segment is drawn as a polyline and color-coded by regime. Optional structure labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) annotate the swing character.
Orders: On bullish flips, strategy.entry("L") opens/maintains a long; on bearish flips, strategy.close("L") exits.
Inputs & controls
Swing Period (prd) — Higher values identify larger, slower swings; lower values catch more frequent pivots but add noise.
Adaptive Price Tracking (APT) — Governs the VWAP’s “half-life.” Smaller APT → faster/closer to price; larger APT → smoother/stabler.
Adapt APT by ATR ratio — When enabled, APT scales with volatility so the VWAP speeds up in turbulent markets and slows down in quiet markets.
Volatility Bias — Tunes the strength of APT’s response to volatility (above 1 = stronger effect; below 1 = milder).
Style settings — Colors for swing labels and VWAP segments, plus line width for visibility.
Trade logic summary
Entry: Long when the swing structure turns bullish (latest swing low is more recent than the last swing high).
Exit: Close the long when structure turns bearish.
Position size: qty = strategy.equity / close × 5 (dynamic sizing; scales with account equity and instrument price). Consider reducing the multiplier for a more conservative profile.
Recommended workflow
Apply to instruments with reliable volume (equities, futures, crypto; FX tick volume can work but varies by broker).
Start on your preferred timeframe. Intraday often benefits from smaller APT (more reactive); higher timeframes may prefer larger APT (smoother).
Begin with defaults ( prd=50, APT=20 ); then toggle “Adapt by ATR” and vary Volatility Bias to observe how segments tighten/loosen.
Use Bar Replay to watch how pivots confirm and how the strategy re-anchors VWAP at those confirmations.
Layer your own risk rules (stops/targets, max position cap, session filters) before any discretionary use.
Practical tips
Context filter: Consider combining with a higher-timeframe bias (e.g., daily trend) and using this strategy as an entry timing layer.
First pivot preference: Some traders prefer only the first bullish pivot after a bearish regime (and vice versa) to reduce whipsaw in choppy ranges.
Deviations: You can add VWAP deviation bands to pre-plan partial exits or re-entries on mean-reversion pulls.
Sessions: Session-based filters (RTH vs. ETH) can materially change behavior on futures and equities.
Extending the script (ideas)
Add stops/targets (e.g., ATR stop below last swing low; partial profits at k×VWAP deviation).
Introduce mirrored short logic for two-sided testing.
Include alert conditions for regime flips or for price-VWAP interactions.
Incorporate HTF confirmation (e.g., only long when daily VWAP slope ≥ 0).
Throttle entries (e.g., once per regime flip) to avoid over-trading in ranges.
Known limitations
Repainting: Swing labels and pivot confirmations depend on future bars; historical labels can look “perfect.” Treat them as annotations, not executable signals.
Execution realism: Strategy includes commission and slippage fields, yet actual fills differ by venue/liquidity.
No guarantees: Past behavior does not imply future results. This publication is for research/education only and not financial advice.
Defaults (backtest environment)
Initial capital: 10,000
Commission value: 0.01
Slippage: 1
Overlay: true
Max bars back: 5000; Max labels/polylines set for deep swing histories
Quick checklist
Add to chart and verify that the instrument has volume.
Use defaults, then tune APT and Volatility Bias with/without ATR adaptation.
Observe how each pivot re-anchors VWAP and how regime flips drive entries/exits.
Paper trade across several symbols/timeframes before any discretionary decisions.

Recovery StrategyDescription:
The Recovery Strategy is a long-only trading system designed to capitalize on significant price drops from recent highs. It enters a position when the price falls 10% or more from the highest high over a 6-month lookback period and adds positions on further 2% drops, up to a maximum of 5 positions. Each trade is held for 6 months before exiting, regardless of profit or loss. The strategy uses margin to amplify position sizes, with a default leverage of 5:1 (20% margin requirement). All key parameters are customizable via inputs, allowing flexibility for different assets and timeframes. Visual markers indicate recent highs for reference.
How It Works:
Entry: Buys when the closing price drops 10% or more from the recent high (highest high in the lookback period, default 126 bars ~6 months). If already in a position, additional buys occur on further 2% drops (e.g., 12%, 14%, 16%, 18%), up to 5 positions (pyramiding).
Exit: Each trade exits after its own holding period (default 126 bars ~6 months), regardless of profit or loss. No stop loss or take-profit is used.
Margin: Uses leverage to control larger positions (default 20% margin, 5:1 leverage). The order size is a percentage of equity (default 100%), adjustable via inputs.
Visualization: Displays blue markers (without text) at new recent highs to highlight reference levels.
Inputs:
Lookback Period for High Peak (bars): Number of bars to look back for the recent high (default: 126, ~6 months on daily charts).
Initial Drop Percentage to Buy (%): Percentage drop from recent high to trigger the first buy (default: 10.0%).
Additional Drop Percentage to Buy (%): Further drop percentage to add positions (default: 2.0%).
Holding Period (bars): Number of bars to hold each position before selling (default: 126, ~6 months).
Order Size (% of Equity): Percentage of equity used per trade (default: 100%).
Margin for Long Positions (%): Percentage of position value covered by equity (default: 20%, equivalent to 5:1 leverage).
Usage:
Timeframe: Designed for daily charts (126 bars ~6 months). Adjust Lookback Period and Holding Period for other timeframes (e.g., 1008 hours for hourly charts, assuming 8 trading hours/day).
Assets: Suitable for stocks, ETFs, or other assets with significant price volatility. Test thoroughly on your chosen asset.
Settings: Customize inputs in the strategy settings to match your risk tolerance and market conditions. For example, lower Margin for Long Positions (e.g., to 10% for 10:1 leverage) to increase position sizes, but beware of higher risk.
Backtesting: Use TradingView’s Strategy Tester to evaluate performance. Check the “List of Trades” for skipped trades due to insufficient equity or margin requirements.
Risks and Considerations:
No Stop Loss: The strategy holds trades for the full 6 months without a stop loss, exposing it to significant drawdowns in prolonged downtrends.
Margin Risk: Leverage (default 5:1) amplifies both profits and losses. Ensure sufficient equity to cover margin requirements to avoid skipped trades or simulated margin calls.
Pyramiding: Up to 5 positions can be open simultaneously, increasing exposure. Adjust pyramiding in the code if fewer positions are desired (e.g., change to pyramiding=3).
Market Conditions: Performance depends on price drops and recoveries. Test on historical data to assess effectiveness in your market.
Broker Emulator: TradingView’s paper trading simulates margin but does not execute real margin trading. Results may differ in live trading due to broker-specific margin rules.
How to Use:
Add the strategy to your chart in TradingView.
Adjust input parameters in the settings panel to suit your asset, timeframe, and risk preferences.
Run a backtest in the Strategy Tester to evaluate performance.
Monitor open positions and margin levels in the Trading Panel to manage risk.
For live trading, consult your broker’s margin requirements and leverage policies, as TradingView’s simulation may not match real-world conditions.

Custom Buy/Sell Pattern BuilderAre you tired of using trading indicators that only let you follow fixed, pre-designed rules? Do you wish you could build your own “Buy” or “Sell” signals, experiment with your own ideas, or see instantly if your unique pattern works—without learning coding or hiring a developer?
The Custom Buy/Sell Pattern Builder is designed for YOU.
This TradingView indicator lets ANY trader—even a complete beginner—define exactly what kind of price and volume conditions should create a BUY or SELL label on any chart, in any market, at any timeframe.
You don’t need to know programming. You don’t need to know the definition of a hammer, doji, volume spike, or Engulfing pattern.
With a few clicks and easy dropdown choices, you can:
Make your own rules for buying or selling
Choose how many candles your pattern should look at
Decide if you want the biggest body, the lowest volume, the biggest movement, or any combination you can imagine
The result?
You’ll see clear “BUY” or “SELL” labels automatically show up on your chart whenever the exact rule YOU built matches current price action.
No more guessing. No more forced strategies. Just pure control and visual feedback!
Why Is This Powerful?
Traditional indicators (like MACD, RSI, or even classic candlestick scanners) work the same for everyone—and only as their inventors defined.
But every trader, and every market, is unique.
What if you could say:
“Show me a ‘SELL’ every time the newest candle is bigger than the one before, but with LESS volume, while the bar before that had an even smaller body—but more volume than all others?”
With this tool, it’s EASY!
You simply pick which candle you want to compare (most recent, previous, etc), what to compare (body or volume—body means the candle’s “thickness”, from open to close), choose “greater than”, “less than”, or “equal to”, and set a multiplier if you want (like “half as much”, “twice as big”, etc).
After this, if any bar on the chart fits all your rules, it will mark it as a BUY or SELL, depending on your selection.
This means—
Beginners can start experimenting with their intuition or small ideas, without tech hurdles
Experienced traders can visualize and fine-tune any possible logic, before they commit to backtesting or automating a real strategy
Every “what if” or “I wonder” setup is just 2–3 clicks away
How Does It Work? Simple Steps
1. Choose Your Signal Type
“Buy” or “Sell”
This tells the indicator whether to mark the qualifying bars with a green “BUY” or red “SELL” label
2. Pick How Many Candles To Use
“Pattern Candle Count” input (2, 3, or 4)
Example: If you use 4, the pattern will be applied to the most recent 4 candles at every step
3. Define Your Pattern With Inputs
For each candle (from newest “0” to oldest “3”), you can set:
Body Condition (example: “is this candle’s body bigger/smaller/equal to another?”)
Pick which candle to compare against
Pick “>”, “<”, “>=”, “<=”, or “=”
Set a multiplier if needed (like “0.5” to mean “half as big as” or “2” for “twice as big as”)
Volume Condition (exact same choices, but based on trading volume—not the candle’s price body)
For example:
“Candle0 Body > Candle2 Body”
means “the latest candle’s real-body (open–close) is bigger than the one two bars ago.”
“Candle1 Volume <= Candle2 Volume”
means “the previous candle’s volume is less than or equal to the volume of the bar two periods ago.”
You can leave a comparison blank if you don’t want to use it for a particular candle.
What Happens After You Set Your Rules?
Every bar on your chart is checked for your logic:
If ALL body AND volume conditions are true (for each candle you specified),
AND
The signal side (“Buy” or “Sell”) matches your dropdown,
Then a green “BUY” or red “SELL” label will show right on the bar, so you can visually spot exactly where your logic works!
Practical Example:
Suppose you want an entry setup that is:
“Sell whenever the newest candle’s body is bigger than two bars ago, body before that is bigger than three bars ago, AND the newest candle’s volume is less than or equal to two bars ago, AND the candle three bars ago’s volume is less than or equal to half the candle two bars ago’s volume.”
You’d set:
Pattern Candle Count: 4
Side: Sell
Candle0 Body Ref#: 2, Op: >, Mult: 1
Candle1 Body Ref#: 3, Op: >, Mult: 1
Candle0 Vol Ref#: 2, Op: <=, Mult: 1
Candle3 Vol Ref#: 2, Op: <=, Mult: 0.5
And the script will find all “SELL” bars on your chart matching these conditions.
Inputs Section: What Does Each Setting Do?
Let’s break down each input in the indicator’s Settings one by one, so even if you’re new, you’ll understand exactly how to use it!
1. Pattern Candle Count (2–4)
What is it?
This sets how many candles in a row you want your rule to look at.
Example:
“4” means your rules are based on the most recent candle and the 3 before it.
“2” means you are only comparing the current and previous candles.
Tip:
Beginners often use 4 to spot stronger patterns, but you can experiment!
2. Signal Side
What is it?
Choose “Buy” or “Sell”. The word you pick here decides which colored label (green for Buy, red for Sell) appears if your pattern matches.
Example:
Want to spot where “Sell” is likely? Pick “Sell”.
Change to “Buy” if you want bullish signals instead.
3. Body & Volume Comparison Settings (per Candle)
For each candle (#0 is newest/current, #3 is oldest in your pattern window):
Body Comparison
Candle# Body Ref#
Choose which other candle you want to compare this one’s body to.
“0” = newest, “1” = previous, “2” = two bars ago, “3” = three bars ago
Candle# Body Op (Operator; >, <, >=, <=, =)
How do you want to compare?
“>” means “greater than” (is bigger than)
“<” means “less than” (is smaller than)
“=” means “equal to”
Candle# Body Mult (Multiplier)
If you want relative comparisons. For example, with Mult=1:
“Candle0 body > Candle2 body x 1” means just “0 is larger than 2.”
“Candle0 body > Candle2 body x 2” means “0 is more than double 2.”
Volume Comparison
Candle# Vol Ref# / Op / Mult
Exact same logic as body, but works on the “Volume” of each candle (how much was traded during that bar).
How to Set Up a Rule (Step by Step Example)
Say you want to mark a Sell every time:
The most recent candle’s real body is BIGGER than the candle 2 bars ago;
The previous candle’s body is also BIGGER than the candle 3 bars ago;
The current candle’s volume is LESS than or equal to the volume of candle 2;
The previous candle’s volume is LESS than or equal to candle 2’s volume;
The candle 3 bars ago’s volume is LESS than or equal to HALF candle 2’s volume.
You’d set:
Pattern Candle Count: 4
Side: "Sell"
Candle0 Body Ref#: 2, Op: “>”, Mult: 1
Candle1 Body Ref#: 3, Op: “>”, Mult: 1
Candle0 Vol Ref#: 2, Op: “<=”, Mult: 1
Candle1 Vol Ref#: 2, Op: “<=”, Mult: 1
Candle3 Vol Ref#: 2, Op: “<=”, Mult: 0.5
All other comparisons (operators) can be left blank if you don’t want to use them!
When these rules are met, a bright red “SELL” label will appear right above the bar matching all your conditions.
Practical Tips & FAQ for Beginners
What does “body” mean?
It’s the “true range” of the candle: the difference between open and close. This ignores wicks for simple setups.
What does “volume” mean?
This is the total trading activity during that candle/bar. Many traders believe that patterns with different volume “meaning” (such as low-volume up bars, or high-volume down bars) signal a meaningful change.
What if nothing shows on chart?
It just means your current rules are rarely or never matched! Try making your comparisons simpler (maybe just 2-body and 2-volume conditions to start).
You can always hit “Reset Settings” to go back to default.
Can I use this for both buying and selling?
YES! You can detect both bullish (Buy) and bearish (Sell) custom conditions; just switch “Signal Side.”
Do I need to know coding?
Not at all! Everything is in simple input panels.
Creative Use Cases, Example Recipes & Troubleshooting
Creative Ways to Use
Spotting Reversals
Example:
Buy when: the newest candle body is LARGER than the previous 3 bars, but ALL volumes are lower than their neighbors.
Why? Sometimes, a big candle with surprisingly low volume after a sequence of small bars can signal a reversal.
Finding Exhaustion Moves
Example:
Sell when: the current bar body is twice as big as two bars ago, but volume is half.
Why? A very big candle with very little volume compared to similar bars may show the move is “running out of steam.”
Custom “Breakout + Confirmation” Patterns
Example:
Buy when:
Candle 0’s body is greater than Candle 2’s by at least 1.5x,
Candle 0’s volume is greater than Candle 1 and Candle 2,
Candle 1’s volume is less than Candle 0.
Why? This could catch strong breakouts but filter out noisy moves.
Multi-bar Bias/Squeeze Filter
Use “Pattern Candle Count: 4”
Set all 4 volume conditions to “<” and each reference to the previous candle.
Now, a BUY or SELL only marks when each bar is “dryer”/less active than the last — a classic squeeze or low-volatility buildup.
Troubleshooting Guide
“I don’t see any Buy/Sell label; is something broken?”
Most likely, your rules are too strict or rare! Try using only two comparisons and leave other “Op” inputs blank as a test.
Double-check you have enough candles on the chart: you need at least as many bars as your pattern count.
“Why does a label appear but not where I expect?”
Remember, the script checks your rules for every NEW candle. The candle “0” is always the most recent, then “1” is one bar back, etc.
Check the color and type chosen: “Signal Side” must be “Buy” for green, “Sell” for red.
“What if I want a more complex pattern?”
Stack conditions! You can demand the body/volume of each candle in your window meet a different rule or all follow the same rule in sequence.
Mini Glossary — For Newcomers
Candle/Bar: Each bar on the chart, shows price movement during a fixed time (e.g., one minute, one hour, one day).
Body: The colored (or filled) part of the candle — the open-to-close price range.
Volume: How much of the asset was actually traded that candle/bar.
Reference Index: When you pick “2” as a reference, it means “the candle two bars ago in the pattern window.”
Operator (“Op”): The math symbol used to compare (>, <, =, etc).
Signal Side: Whether you want to highlight bullish (“Buy”) or bearish (“Sell”) bars.
Tips for Getting More Value
Start Simple—try just one or two conditions at first. See what lights up. Slowly add more logic as you get comfortable.
Watch the chart live as you change settings. The labels update instantly—this makes strategy design fast and visual!
Try flipping your ideas: If a certain pattern doesn’t work for buys, try reversing the direction for possible “sell” setups.
Remember: There is NO wrong idea. This indicator is only limited by your creativity—it’s a “strategy playground.”
Example Quick-Start Recipes
Classic Sell:
4 candles, side = Sell
Candle0 Body > Candle2; Candle1 Body > Candle3
Candle0 Vol <= Candle2; Candle1 Vol <= Candle2; Candle3 Vol <= Candle2 × 0.5
Simple Buy After Pause:
3 candles, side = Buy
Candle0 Body > Candle1; Candle0 Vol > Candle1
All other Ops blank
Low-Volume Pullback for Entry:
4 candles, side = Buy
Candle0 Body > Candle2
Candle0 Vol < Candle1; Candle1 Vol < Candle2; Candle2 Vol < Candle3
Final Words
Think of this as your “pattern lab.” No code, no guesswork—just experiment, see what the market actually gives, and design your own visual rulebook.
If you’re stuck, reset the script to defaults—it’s always safe to start again!
If you want more ready-made “recipes” for different strategies/styles, just ask and I’ll send some more setups for you.
Happy building—and may your edge always be YOUR edge!
Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend [BackQuant]Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend
A two-stage trend tool that first filters price with a deadband baseline, then runs a Supertrend around that baseline with optional flip hysteresis and ATR-based adverse exits.
What this is
A hybrid of two ideas:
Deadband Hysteresis Baseline that only advances when price pulls far enough from the baseline to matter. This suppresses micro noise and gives you a stable centerline.
Supertrend bands wrapped around that baseline instead of raw price. Flips are further gated by an extra margin so side changes are more deliberate.
The goal is fewer whipsaws in chop and clearer regime identification during trends.
How it works (high level)
Deadband step — compute a per-bar “deadband” size from one of four modes: ATR, Percent of price, Ticks, or Points. If price deviates from the baseline by more than this amount, move the baseline forward by a fraction of the excess. If not, hold the line.
Centered Supertrend — build upper and lower bands around the baseline using ATR and a user factor. Track the usual trailing logic that tightens a band while price moves in its favor.
Flip hysteresis — require price to exceed the active band by an extra flip offset × ATR before switching sides. This adds stickiness at the boundary.
Adverse exit — once a side is taken, trigger an exit if price moves against the entry by K × ATR .
If you would like to check out the filter by itself:
What it plots
DBHF baseline (optional) as a smooth centerline.
DBHF Supertrend as the active trailing band.
Candle coloring by trend side for quick read.
Signal markers 𝕃 and 𝕊 at flips plus ✖ on adverse exits.
Inputs that matter
Price Source — series being filtered. Close is typical. HL2 or HLC3 can be steadier.
Deadband mode — ATR, Percent, Ticks, or Points. This defines the “it’s big enough to matter” zone.
ATR Length / Mult (DBHF) — only used when mode = ATR. Larger values widen the do-nothing zone.
Percent / Ticks / Points — alternatives to ATR; pick what fits your market’s convention.
Enter Mult — scales the deadband you must clear before the baseline moves. Increase to filter more noise.
Response — fraction of the excess applied to baseline movement. Higher responds faster; lower is smoother.
Supertrend ATR Period & Factor — traditional band size controls; higher factor widens and flips less often.
Flip Offset ATR — extra ATR buffer required to flip. Useful in choppy regimes.
Adverse Stop K·ATR — per-trade danger brake that forces an exit if price moves K×ATR against entry.
UI — toggle baseline, supertrend, signals, and bar painting; choose long and short colors.
How to read it
Green regime — candles painted long and the Supertrend running below price. Pullbacks toward the baseline that fail to breach the opposite band often resume higher.
Red regime — candles painted short and the Supertrend running above price. Rallies that cannot reclaim the band may roll over.
Frequent side swaps — reduce sensitivity by increasing Enter Mult, using ATR mode, raising the Supertrend factor, or adding Flip Offset ATR.
Use cases
Bias filter — allow entries only in the direction of the current side. Use your preferred triggers inside that bias.
Trailing logic — treat the active band as a dynamic stop. If the side flips or an adverse K·ATR exit prints, reduce or close exposure.
Regime map — on higher timeframes, the combination baseline + band produces a clean up vs down template for allocation decisions.
Tuning guidance
Fast markets — ATR deadband, modest Enter Mult (0.8–1.2), response 0.2–0.35, Supertrend factor 1.7–2.2, small Flip Offset (0.2–0.5 ATR).
Choppy ranges — widen deadband or raise Enter Mult, lower response, and add more Flip Offset so flips require stronger evidence.
Slow trends — longer ATR periods and higher Supertrend factor to keep you on side longer; use a conservative adverse K.
Included alerts
DBHF ST Long — side flips to long.
DBHF ST Short — side flips to short.
Adverse Exit Long / Short — K·ATR stop triggers against the current side.
Strengths
Deadbanded baseline reduces micro whipsaws before Supertrend logic even begins.
Flip hysteresis adds a second layer of confirmation at the boundary.
Optional adverse ATR stop provides a uniform risk cut across assets and regimes.
Clear visuals and minimal parameters to adjust for symbol behavior.
Putting it together
Think of this tool as two decisions layered into one view. The deadband baseline answers “does this move even count,” then the Supertrend wrapped around that baseline answers “if it counts, which side should I be on and where do I flip.” When both parts agree you tend to stay on the correct side of a trend for longer, and when they disagree you get an early warning that conditions are changing.
When the baseline bends and price cannot reclaim the opposite band , momentum is usually continuing. Pullbacks into the baseline that stall before the far band often resolve in trend.
When the baseline flattens and the bands compress , expect indecision. Use the Flip Offset ATR to avoid reacting to the first feint. Wait for a clean band breach with follow through.
When an adverse K·ATR exit prints while the side has not flipped , treat it as a risk event rather than a full regime change. Many users cut size, re-enter only if the side reasserts, and let the next flip confirm a new trend.
Final thoughts
Deadband Hysteresis Supertrend is best read as a regime lens. The baseline defines your tolerance for noise, the bands define your trailing structure, and the flip offset plus adverse ATR stop define how forgiving or strict you want to be at the boundary. On strong trends it helps you hold through shallow shakeouts. In choppy conditions it encourages patience until price does something meaningful. Start with settings that reflect the cadence of your market, observe how often flips occur, then nudge the deadband and flip offset until the tool spends most of its time describing the move you care about rather than the noise in between.
