Equilibrium Candles + Pattern [Honestcowboy]The Equilibrium Candles is a very simple trend continuation or reversal strategy depending on your settings.
How an Equilibrium Candle is created:
We calculate the equilibrium by measuring the mid point between highest and lowest point over X amount of bars back.
This now is the opening price for each bar and will be considered a green bar if price closes above equilibrium.
Bars get shaded by checking if regular candle close is higher than open etc. So you still see what the normal candles are doing.
Why are they useful?
The equilibrium is calculated the same as Baseline in Ichimoku Cloud. Which provides a point where price is very likely to retrace to. This script visualises the distance between close and equilibrium using candles. To provide a clear visual of how price relates to this equilibrium point.
This also makes it more straightforward to develop strategies based on this simple concept and makes the trader purely focus on this relationship and not think of any Ichimoku Cloud theories.
Script uses a very simple pattern to enter trades:
It will count how many candles have been one directional (above or below equilibrium)
Based on user input after X candles (7 by default) script shows we are in a trend (bg colors)
On the first pullback (candle closes on other side of equilibrium) it will look to enter a trade.
Places a stop order at the high of the candle if bullish trend or reverse if bearish trend.
If based on user input after X opposite candles (2 by default) order is not filled will cancel it and look for a new trend.
Use Reverse Logic:
There is a use reverse logic in the settings which on default is turned on. It will turn long orders into short orders making the stop orders become limit orders. It will use the normal long SL as target for the short. And TP as stop for the short. This to provide a means to reverse equity curve in case your pair is mean reverting by nature instead of trending.
ATR Calculation:
Averaged ATR, which is using ta.percentile_nearest_rank of 60% of a normal ATR (14 period) over the last 200 bars. This in simple words finds a value slightly above the mean ATR value over that period.
Big Candle Exit Logic:
Using Averaged ATR the script will check if a candle closes X times that ATR from the equilibrium point. This is then considered an overextension and all trades are closed.
This is also based on user input.
Simple trade management logic:
Checks if the user has selected to use TP and SL, or/and big candle exit.
Places a TP and SL based on averaged ATR at a multiplier based on user Input.
Closes trade if there is a Big Candle Exit or an opposite direction signal from indicator.
Script can be fully automated to MT5
There are risk settings in % and symbol settings provided at the bottom of the indicator. The script will send alert to MT5 broker trying to mimic the execution that happens on tradingview. There are always delays when using a bridge to MT5 broker and there could be errors so be mindful of that. This script sends alerts in format so they can be read by tradingview.to which is a bridge between the platforms.
Use the all alert function calls feature when setting up alerts and make sure you provide the right webhook if you want to use this approach.
There is also a simple buy and sell alert feature if you don't want to fully automate but still get alerts. These are available in the dropdown when creating an alert.
Almost every setting in this indicator has a tooltip added to it. So if any setting is not clear hover over the (?) icon on the right of the setting.
The backtest uses a 4% exposure per trade and a 10 point slippage. I did not include a commission cause I'm not personaly aware what the commissions are on most forex brokers. I'm only aware of minimal slippage to use in a backtest. Trading conditions vary per broker you use so always pay close attention to trading costs on your own broker. Use a full automation at your own risk and discretion and do proper backtesting.

Ichimoku Cloud and ADX with Trailing Stop Loss (by Coinrule)The Ichimoku Cloud is a collection of technical indicators that show support and resistance levels, as well as momentum and trend direction. It does this by taking multiple averages and plotting them on a chart. It also uses these figures to compute a “cloud” that attempts to forecast where the price may find support or resistance in the future.
The Ichimoku Cloud was developed by Goichi Hosoda, a Japanese journalist, and published in the late 1960s. It provides more data points than the standard candlestick chart. While it seems complicated at first glance, those familiar with how to read the charts often find it easy to understand with well-defined trading signals.
The Ichimoku Cloud is composed of five lines or calculations, two of which comprise a cloud where the difference between the two lines is shaded in.
The lines include a nine-period average, a 26-period average, an average of those two averages, a 52-period average, and a lagging closing price line.
The cloud is a key part of the indicator. When the price is below the cloud, the trend is down. When the price is above the cloud, the trend is up.
The above trend signals are strengthened if the cloud is moving in the same direction as the price. For example, during an uptrend, the top of the cloud is moving up, or during a downtrend, the bottom of the cloud is moving down.
DMI is simple to interpret. When +DI > - DI, it means the price is trending up. On the other hand, when -DI > +DI, the trend is weak or moving on the downside. The ADX does not give an indication of the direction but about the strength of the trend.
Typically values of ADX above 25 mean that the trend is steeply moving up or down, based on the -DI and +DI positioning. This script aims to capture swings in the DMI, and thus, in the trend of the asset, using a contrarian approach.
Trading on high values of ADX, the strategy tries to spot extremely oversold and overbought conditions. Values of ADX above 45 may suggest that the trend has overextended and is maybe about to reverse.
This strategy combines the Ichimoku Cloud with the ADX indicator to better enter trades.
Long orders are placed when these basic signals are triggered.
Long Position:
Tenkan-Sen is above the Kijun-Sen
Chikou-Span is above the close of 26 bars ago
Close is above the Kumo Cloud
MACD line crosses over the signal line
-DI is greater than +DI
ADX is greater than 45
Close Position:
3% increase trailing
3% decrease trailing
The script is backtested from December 2022 and provides good returns.
A trading fee of 0.1% is also taken into account and is aligned to the base fee applied on Binance.

Ichimoku Breakout Kumo SWING TRADER (By Insert Cheese)A simple strategy for long spot or long futures (swing traders) based on a basic method of Ichimoku Kinko Hyo strategies.
The strategy is simple:
- Buy when the price breaks the cloud
- Close the trade when the price closes again inside the cloud.
The parameters that work best on this strategy are 10,30,60,30 and 1 for Senkou-Span A
but you can try classic Ichimoku parameters (9,26,52,26,26) or whatever you want like (7,22,44,22,22), (10,30,60,30,30) and others.
-1D chart
I have removed everything from the interface except the cloud to make it visually more aesthetic :D (but if you want to see all the ichimoku indicator you can put in again into the chart)
I have also added several functions for you to do your own backtesting:
- Date range
- TP AND SL method
- Includes long or short trades
The strategy starts with 500 $ and use 100% for trade to make the power of the compounding :P
Remember that this is for only educational porpouse and you must to do your own research and backtested on your usually market..
I hope you like it enjoy and support this indicator :)

The Bollinger Bands are among the most famous and widely used indicators. A Bollinger Band is a technical analysis tool defined by a set of trendlines plotted two standard deviations (positively and negatively) away from a simple moving average ( SMA ) of a security's price, but which can be adjusted to user preferences. They can suggest when an asset is oversold or overbought in the short term, thus providing the best time for buying and selling it.
This strategy combines the Ichimoku Cloud with Bollinger Bands to better enter trades.
Long orders are placed when these basic signals are triggered.
Long Position:
Tenkan-Sen is above the Kijun-Sen
Chikou-Span is above the close of 26 bars ago
Close is above the Kumo Cloud
The closing price is greater than the upper standard deviation of the Bollinger Bands
Short Position:
Tenkan-Sen is below the Kijun-Sen
Chikou-Span is below the close of 26 bars ago
Close is below the Kumo Cloud
The upper standard deviation of the Bollinger Band is greater than the closing price

Ichimoku Backtester with TP, SL, and Cloud Confirmation OptionStarted with the Basic Ichimoku strategy from Mizuki32. Added Take Profit, Stop Loss (for both long and short), and a toggle to wait for confirmation from the cloud.
Ichimoku Kinko Hyo StrategyStrategy based on the Ishimoku Kinko Hyo system, using the different indicators it provides to build signals.
This strategy could be better as it should ideally use the position of the price line compared to Chikou to determine if signals should be looked for, but I've been unable to fully implement this so far (an imperfect implementation is provided, but disable by default). I'll update the script once I figure it out, but it still gives good results without this.
Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud - no offset - no repaint - strategyIchimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud - no offset - no repaint - RSI filter - strategy
The indicator contains both the standard Ichimoku Cloud , as well as the one without the visual offset.
The Strategy Tester indicates good backtest results when the Ichimoku Cloud is paired with the RSI .
However, it seems it likes to work more as a standalone system.
The indicator can be easily converted to the study() mode by commenting/uncommenting a few lines,
then the alarms can be configured.
There are entry and exit signals ready to be used by the alert system.
The coloring of the cloud without offset contains all 3 conditions: Uptrend , Downtrend , Transition .
13/21 EMA + Ichimoku Kinko Hyo StrategyThis trading strategy uses combination of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system with Fibonacci numbers based 13/21 exponential moving average ( EMA ) crossover, giving excellent results in trending assets !
EMA + Ichimoku Kinko Hyo StrategyThis trading strategy uses combination of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system with Fibonacci numbers based exponential moving average(EMA) and RSI 12/24 crossover, giving excellent results in trending stocks !
Heiken Ashi + Ichimoku Kinko Hyo StrategyHeikin-Ashi:
Instead of using the open-high-low-close (OHLC) bars like standard candlestick charts, it uses a modified formula. Out of which only following two are used in this strategy.
High = Max (High,Open,Close)
Low = Min (Low,Open, Close)
Ichimoku Kinko Hyo:
The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system includes five kinds of signal, of which this strategy uses four signals i.e. Tenkan Sen / Kijun Sen Cross, price crosses the Kijun Sen, Chikou Span and Kumo. Although the Chikou Span, Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B (Kumo) are shifted into the past/future, these trigger signals enhances the strategy.
The Tenkan Sen, also known as the Turning or Conversion line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 9 periods in this strategy.
The Kijun Sen, also known as the Standard or Base line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 24 periods in this strategy.
The Chikou Span, also known as the Lagging line, is the closing price plotted 24 periods behind in this strategy.
The Senkou Span A, also known as the 1st leading line, is a moving average of the Tenkan Sen and Kijun Sen and is plotted 24 periods ahead in this strategy.
The Senkou Span B, also known as the 2nd leading line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 51 trading days is plotted 24 periods ahead in this strategy.
Hull MA-X + Ichimoku Kinko Hyo StrategyHull MA-X:
The Hull MA involves the weighted moving average ( WMA ) in its calculation.
First, calculate the WMA with period (n / 2) and multiply this by 2. Remember ‘n’ is the time period configurable based on the trader’s requirement.
Second, calculate the WMA for period “n” and subtract if from the first step. Thirdly, calculate the weighted moving average with period sqrt (n) using the data from the second step. You can take a look at the below formula:
Hull MA= WMA (2*WMA (n/2) − WMA (n)), sqrt (n))
The default setting is 12 periods in this strategy, fast Hull MA crossing slow Hull MA will generate a circle on charts.
Ichimoku Kinko Hyo:
The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system includes five kinds of signal, of which this strategy uses four signals i.e. Tenkan Sen / Kijun Sen Cross, price crosses the Kijun Sen, Chikou Span and Kumo. Although the Chikou Span, Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B (Kumo) are shifted into the past/future, these trigger signals enhances the strategy.
The Tenkan Sen, also known as the Turning or Conversion line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 9 periods in this strategy.
The Kijun Sen, also known as the Standard or Base line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 24 periods in this strategy.
The Chikou Span, also known as the Lagging line, is the closing price plotted 24 periods behind in this strategy.
The Senkou Span A, also known as the 1st leading line, is a moving average of the Tenkan Sen and Kijun Sen and is plotted 24 periods ahead in this strategy.
The Senkou Span B, also known as the 2nd leading line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 51 trading days is plotted 24 periods ahead in this strategy.
As with most technical analysis methods, Ichimoku is likely to produce frequent conflicting signals in non-trending markets, So in addition to Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, the Hull MA is used, which is popular amongst some day traders, in combination it attempts to give an accurate signal by eliminating lags and improving the smoothness of the line.
The Hull MA Cross in combination with Ichimoku Kinko Hyo signals tries to give an accurate signal by eliminating lags and improve the smoothness of price activity. Please note that price trends can and do change often, so your readings of the charts and this trading system should be probabilistic, rather than predictive.
Ichimoku Kinko Hyo + HULL-MA_X + MacDThe Ichimoku Kinko Hyo system includes five kinds of signal, of which this strategy uses the most recent of ones i.e. Tenkan Sen / Kijun Sen Cross and price crosses the Kijun Sen. As the Chikou Span, Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B are shifted into the past/future, the trigger signals will be only be used for visual confirmation and not part of the strategy.
The Tenkan Sen, also known as the Turning or Conversion line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 9 periods in this strategy.
The Kijun Sen, also known as the Standard or Base line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 24 periods in this strategy.
The Chikou Span, also known as the Lagging line, is the closing price plotted 24 periods behind in this strategy.
The Senkou Span A, also known as the 1st leading line, is a moving average of the Tenkan Sen and Kijun Sen and is plotted 24 periods ahead in this strategy.
The Senkou Span B, also known as the 2nd leading line, is a moving average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 51 trading days is plotted 24 periods ahead in this strategy.
Moving average convergence divergence (MaCD) is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of prices. The MaCD is calculated in this strategy by subtracting the 24-day exponential moving average (EMA) from the 12-day EMA. A nine-day EMA of the MACD, called the "signal line", aMaCD in this case, is then plotted on top of the MaCD. In this strategy, MaCD/ aMaCD Cross is functioning as a trigger for buy and sell signals.
As with most technical analysis methods, Ichimoku is likely to produce frequent conflicting signals in non-trending markets, So in addition to Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, the Hull MA is popular amongst some day traders, as the indicator which in combination with MaCD attempts to give an accurate signal by eliminating lags and improving the smoothness of the line.
Alan Hull, developed this moving average indicator and hence it’s called the Hull MA.
Now, let’s dissect how the Hull moving average is calculated.
The Hull MA involves the weighted moving average (WMA) in its calculation.
First, calculate the WMA with period (n / 2) and multiply this by 2. Remember ‘n’ is the time period configurable based on the trader’s requirement. The default setting is 12 periods in this strategy, fast Hull MA crossing slow Hull MA will generate a circle on charts.
Second, calculate the WMA for period “n” and subtract if from the first step. Thirdly, calculate the weighted moving average with period sqrt (n) using the data from the second step. You can take a look at the below formula:
Hull MA= WMA (2*WMA (n/2) − WMA (n)), sqrt (n))
The Hull MA Cross in combination with Tenkan Sen / Kijun Sen Cross and MaCD tries to give an accurate signal by eliminating lags and improve the smoothness of price activity. Please note that price trends can and do change often, so your readings of the charts and this trading system should be probabilistic, rather than predictive.
