Floating Bands of the Argentine Peso (Sebastian.Waisgold)
The BCRA ( Central Bank of the Argentine Republic ) announced that as of Monday, April 15, 2025, the Argentine Peso (USDARS) will float within a system of divergent exchange rate bands.
The upper band was set at ARS 1400 per USD on 15/04/2025, with a +1% monthly adjustment distributed daily, rising by a fraction each day.
The lower band was set at ARS 1000 per USD on 15/04/2025, with a –1% monthly adjustment distributed daily, falling by a fraction each day.
This indicator is crucial for anyone trading USDARS, since the BCRA will only intervene in these situations:
- Selling : if the Peso depreciates against the USD above the upper band .
- Buying : if the Peso appreciates against the USD below the lower band .
Therefore, this indicator can be used as follows:
- If USDARS is above the upper band , it is “expensive” and you may sell .
- If USDARS is below the lower band , it is “cheap” and you may buy .
It can also be applied to other assets such as:
- USDTARS
- Dollar Cable / CCL (Contado con Liquidación) , derived from the BCBA:YPFD / NYSE:YPF ratio.
A mid band —exactly halfway between the upper and lower bands—has also been added.
Once added, the indicator should look like this:
In the following image you can see:
- Upper Floating Band
- Lower Floating Band
- Mid Floating Band
User Configuration
By double-clicking any line you can adjust:
- Start day (Dia de incio), month (Mes de inicio), and year (Año de inicio)
- Initial upper band value (Valor inicial banda superior)
- Initial lower band value (Valor inicial banda inferior)
- Monthly rate Tasa mensual %)
It is recommended not to modify these settings for the Argentine Peso, as they reflect the BCRA’s official framework. However, you may customize them—and the line colors—for other assets or currencies implementing a similar band scheme.
Universal Adaptive Psychological Levels 1.1This simple indicator is somewhat working around an inability to see big accumulations of limit orders in Tradingview.
It just marks the levels of round psychological prices (e.g. 1000, 1100, 1110) and adjusts to the range of prices of the current ticker.
These psychological levels work as resistance and support levels, especially if the price didn't visit it already lately.
Trading Report Generator from CSVMany people use the Trading Panel. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a Performance Report. However, TradingView has strategies, and they have a Performance Report :-D
What if we combine the first and second? It's easy!
This script is a special strategy that parses transactions in csv format from Paper Trading (and it will also work for other brokers) and “plays” them. As a result, we get a Performance Report for a specific instrument based on our real trades in Paper or another broker.
How to use it :
First, we need to get a CSV file with transactions. To do this, go to the Trading Panel and connect the desired broker. Select the History tab, then the Filled sub-tab, and configure the columns there, leaving only: Side, Qty, Fill Price, Closing Time. After that, open the Export data dialog, select History, and click Export. Open the downloaded CSV file in a regular text editor (Notepad or similar). It will contain a text like this:
Symbol,Side,Qty,Fill Price,Closing Time
FX:EURUSD,Buy,1000,1.0938700000000001,2023-04-05 14:29:23
COINBASE:ETHUSD,Sell,1,1332.05,2023-01-11 17:41:33
CME_MINI:ESH2023,Sell,1,3961.75,2023-01-11 17:30:40
CME_MINI:ESH2023,Buy,1,3956.75,2023-01-11 17:08:53
Next select all the text (Ctrl+A) and copy it to the clipboard.
Now apply the "Trading Report Generator from CSV" strategy to the chart with the desired symbol and TF, open the settings/input dialog, paste the contents of the clipboard into the single text input field of the strategy, and click Ok.
That's it.
In the Strategy Tester, we see a detailed Performance Report based on our real transactions.
P.S. The CSV file may contain transactions for different instruments, for example, you may have transactions for CRYPTO:BTCUSD and NASDAQ:AAPL. To view the report is based on CRYPTO:BTCUSD trades, simply change the symbol on the chart to CRYPTO:BTCUSD. To view the report is based on NASDAQ:AAPL trades, simply change the symbol on the chart to NASDAQ:AAPL. No changes to the strategy are required.
How it works :
At the beginning of the calculation, we parse the csv once, create trade objects (Trade) and sort them in chronological order. Next, on each bar, we check whether we have trades for the time period of the next bar. If there are, we place a limit order for each trade, with limit price == Fill Price of the trade. Here, we assume that if the trade is real, its execution price will be within the bar range, and the Pine strategy engine will execute this order at the specified limit price.
Ease of Movement Z-Score Trend | DextraGeneral Description:
The "Ease of Movement Z-Score Trend | Dextra" (EOM-Z Trend) is an innovative technical analysis tool that combines the Ease of Movement (EOM) concept with Z-Score to measure how easily price moves relative to volume, while identifying market trends with intuitive visualization. This indicator is designed to help traders detect uptrend and downtrend phases with precision, enhanced by candle coloring for direct trend representation on the chart.
Key Features
Ease of Movement (EOM): Measures how easily price moves based on the change in the midpoint price and volume, normalized with Z-Score for statistical analysis.
Z-Score Normalization: Provides an indication of deviations from the mean, enabling the identification of overbought or oversold conditions.
Adjustable Thresholds: Users can customize upper and lower thresholds to define trend boundaries.
Candle Coloring: Visual trend representation with green (uptrend), red (downtrend), and gray (neutral) candles.
Flexibility: Adjustable for different timeframes and assets.
How It Works
The indicator operates through the following steps:
EOM Calculation:
hl2 = (high + low) / 2: Calculates the average midpoint price per bar.
eom = ta.sma(10000 * ta.change(hl2) * (high - low) / volume, length): EOM is computed as the smoothed average of the price midpoint change multiplied by the price range per unit volume, scaled by 10,000, over length bars (default 20).
Z-Score Calculation:
mean_eom = ta.sma(eom, z_length): Average EOM over z_length bars (default 93).
std_dev_eom = ta.stdev(eom, z_length): Standard deviation of EOM.
z_score = (eom - mean_eom) / std_dev_eom: Z-Score indicating how far EOM deviates from its mean in standard deviation units.
Trend Detection:
upperthreshold (default 1.03) and lowerthreshold (default -1.63): Thresholds to classify uptrend (if Z-Score > upperthreshold) and downtrend (if Z-Score < lowerthreshold).
eom_is_up and eom_is_down: Logical variables for trend status.
Visualization:
plot(z_score, ...): Z-Score line plotted with green (uptrend), red (downtrend), or gray (neutral) coloring.
plotcandle(...): Candles colored green, red, or gray based on trend.
hline(...): Dashed lines marking the thresholds.
Input Settings
EOM Length (default 20): Period for calculating EOM, determining sensitivity to price changes.
Z-Score Lookback Period (default 93): Period for calculating the Z-Score mean and standard deviation.
Uptrend Threshold (default 1.03): Minimum Z-Score value to classify an uptrend.
Downtrend Threshold (default -1.93): Maximum Z-Score value to classify a downtrend.
How to Use
Installation: Add the indicator via the "Indicators" menu in TradingView and search for "EOM-Z Trend | Dextra".
Customization:
Adjust EOM Length and Z-Score Lookback Period based on the timeframe (e.g., 20 and 93 for daily timeframes).
Set Uptrend Threshold and Downtrend Threshold according to preference or asset characteristics (e.g., lower to 0.8 and -1.5 for volatile markets).
Interpretation:
Uptrend (Green): Z-Score above upperthreshold, indicating strong upward price movement.
Downtrend (Red): Z-Score below lowerthreshold, indicating significant downward movement.
Neutral (Gray): Conditions between thresholds, suggesting a sideways market.
Use candle coloring as the primary visual guide, combined with the Z-Score line for confirmation.
Advantages
Intuitive Visualization: Candle coloring simplifies trend identification without deep analysis.
Flexibility: Customizable parameters allow adaptation to various markets.
Statistical Analysis: Z-Score provides a robust perspective on price deviations from the norm.
No Repainting: The indicator uses historical data and does not alter values after a bar closes.
Limitations
Volume Dependency: Requires accurate volume data; an error occurs if volume is unavailable.
Market Context: Effectiveness depends on properly tuned thresholds for specific assets.
Lack of Additional Signals: No built-in alerts or supplementary confirmation indicators.
Recommendations
Ideal Timeframe: Daily (1D) or (2D) for stable trends.
Combination: Pair with others indicators for signal validation.
Optimization: Test thresholds on historical data of the traded asset for optimal results.
Important Notes
This indicator relies entirely on internal TradingView data (high, low, close, volume) and does not integrate on-chain data. Ensure your data provider supports volume to avoid errors. This version (1.0) is the initial release, with potential future updates including features like alerts or multi-timeframe analysis.
DA Cloud - DynamicDA Cloud - Dynamic | Detailed Overview
🌟 What Makes This Indicator Special
The DA Cloud - Dynamic is an advanced technical analysis tool that creates adaptive support and resistance zones that expand and contract based on market volatility. Unlike traditional static indicators, this cloud system "breathes" with the market, providing dynamic levels that adjust to changing market conditions.
📊 Core Components
1. Multi-Layered Cloud Structure
Resistance Cloud (Red): Three dynamic resistance levels (RL1, RL2, RL3) with intermediate channels (RC1, RC2)
Support Cloud (Green): Three dynamic support levels (SL1, SL2, SL3) with intermediate channels (SC1, SC2)
Trend Cloud (Blue): Five trend lines (TU2, TU1, TM, TL1, TL2) that flow through the center
Confirmation Line (Purple): A fast-reacting line that confirms trend changes
2. Forward Displacement Technology
The entire cloud system is projected 21 bars into the future (Fibonacci number), allowing traders to see potential support and resistance levels before price reaches them. This predictive element is inspired by Ichimoku Cloud theory but enhanced with modern volatility dynamics.
🔬 How It Works (Without Revealing the Secret Sauce)
Volatility-Responsive Design
The indicator continuously measures market volatility across multiple timeframes
During high volatility periods (like major breakouts), clouds expand dramatically
During consolidation, clouds contract and tighten around price
This creates a "breathing" effect that adapts to market conditions
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Incorporates Fibonacci sequence periods (3, 13, 21, 34, 55) for calculations
Blends short-term responsiveness with long-term stability
Creates smooth, flowing lines that filter out market noise
Dynamic Level Calculation
Levels are not fixed percentages or static bands
Each level adapts based on current market structure and volatility
Channel lines (RC1, RC2, SC1, SC2) provide intermediate support/resistance
🎯 Key Features
1. Touch Point Detection
Colored dots appear when price touches key levels
Red dots = resistance touch
Green dots = support touch
Blue dots = trend median touch
2. Entry/Exit Signals
"Cloud Entry" labels when confirmation line crosses above SL1
"Cloud Exit" labels when confirmation line crosses below RL1
Background color changes based on bullish/bearish bias
3. Information Table
Real-time display of key levels (RL1, TM, SL1)
Current bias indicator (BULLISH/BEARISH)

Allows fine-tuning of cloud structure to match different markets
Trend Spacing:
Separate controls for inner and outer trend bands
Customize the trend cloud density
📈 Trading Applications
1. Trend Identification
Price above TM (Trend Median) = Bullish bias
Price below TM = Bearish bias
Cloud color and width indicate trend strength
2. Support/Resistance Trading
Use RL1/SL1 as primary targets and reversal zones
RC1/RC2 and SC1/SC2 provide intermediate levels
RL3/SL3 mark extreme levels often seen at major tops/bottoms
3. Volatility Analysis
Expanding clouds signal increasing volatility and potential big moves
Contracting clouds indicate consolidation and potential breakout setup
Cloud width helps with position sizing and risk management
4. Multi-Timeframe Confirmation
Works on all timeframes from 1-minute to monthly
Higher timeframes show major market structure
Lower timeframes provide precise entry/exit points
🎓 Best Practices
Combine with Volume: High volume at cloud levels increases reliability
Watch for Touch Clusters: Multiple touches at a level indicate strength
Monitor Cloud Expansion: Sudden expansion often precedes major moves
Use Multiple Timeframes: Confirm signals across different time periods
Respect the Trend Median: This is often the most important level

Asset Premium/Discount Monitor📊 Overview
The Asset Premium/Discount Monitor is a tool for analyzing the relative value between two correlated assets. It measures when one asset is trading at a premium or discount compared to its historical relationship with another asset, helping traders identify potential mean reversion opportunities, or pairs trading opportunities.
🎯 Use Cases
Perfect for analyzing:
NASDAQ:MSTR vs CRYPTO:BTCUSD - MicroStrategy's premium/discount to Bitcoin
NASDAQ:COIN vs BITSTAMP:BTCUSD - Coinbase's relative value to Bitcoin
NASDAQ:TSLA vs NASDAQ:QQQ - Tesla's premium to tech sector
Regional banks AMEX:KRE vs AMEX:XLF - Individual bank stocks vs financial sector
Any two correlated assets where relative value matters
Example of a trade: MSTR vs BTC - When indicator shows MSTR at 95% percentile (extreme premium): Short MSTR, Buy BTC. Then exit when the spread reverts to the mean, say 40-60% percentile.
🔧 How It Works
Core Calculation
Ratio Analysis: Calculates the price ratio between your asset and the correlated asset
Historical Baseline: Establishes the "normal" relationship using a 252-day moving average. You can change this.
Premium Measurement: Measures current deviation from historical average as a percentage
Statistical Context: Provides percentile rankings and standard deviation bands
The Math
Premium % = (Current Ratio / Historical Average Ratio - 1) × 100
🎨 Customization Options
Correlated Asset: Choose any symbol for comparison
Lookback Period: Adjust historical baseline (50-1000 days)
Smoothing: Reduce noise with moving average (1-50 days)
Visual Toggles: Show/hide bands and percentile lines
Color Themes: Customize premium/discount colors
📊 Interpretation Guide
Premium/Discount Reading
Positive %: Asset trading above historical relationship (premium)
Negative %: Asset trading below historical relationship (discount)
Near 0%: Asset at fair value relative to correlation
Percentile Ranking
90%+: Near recent highs - potential selling opportunity
10% and below: Near recent lows - potential buying opportunity
25-75%: Normal trading range
Signal Classifications
🔴 SELL PREMIUM: Asset expensive relative to recent range
🟡 Premium Rich: Moderately expensive, monitor for reversal
⚪ NEUTRAL: Fair value territory
🟡 Discount Opportunity: Moderately cheap, potential accumulation zone
🟢 BUY DISCOUNT: Asset cheap relative to recent range
🚨 Built-in Alerts
Extreme Premium Alert: Triggers when percentile > 95%
Extreme Discount Alert: Triggers when percentile < 5%
⚠️ Important Notes
Works best with highly correlated assets
Historical relationships can change - monitor correlation strength
Not investment advice - use as one factor in your analysis

Momentum Regression [BackQuant]Momentum Regression
The Momentum Regression is an advanced statistical indicator built to empower quants, strategists, and technically inclined traders with a robust visual and quantitative framework for analyzing momentum effects in financial markets. Unlike traditional momentum indicators that rely on raw price movements or moving averages, this tool leverages a volatility-adjusted linear regression model (y ~ x) to uncover and validate momentum behavior over a user-defined lookback window.
Purpose & Design Philosophy
Momentum is a core anomaly in quantitative finance — an effect where assets that have performed well (or poorly) continue to do so over short to medium-term horizons. However, this effect can be noisy, regime-dependent, and sometimes spurious.
The Momentum Regression is designed as a pre-strategy analytical tool to help you filter and verify whether statistically meaningful and tradable momentum exists in a given asset. Its architecture includes:
Volatility normalization to account for differences in scale and distribution.
Regression analysis to model the relationship between past and present standardized returns.
Deviation bands to highlight overbought/oversold zones around the predicted trendline.
Statistical summary tables to assess the reliability of the detected momentum.
Core Concepts and Calculations
The model uses the following:
Independent variable (x): The volatility-adjusted return over the chosen momentum period.
Dependent variable (y): The 1-bar lagged log return, also adjusted for volatility.
A simple linear regression is performed over a large lookback window (default: 1000 bars), which reveals the slope and intercept of the momentum line. These values are then used to construct:
A predicted momentum trendline across time.
Upper and lower deviation bands , representing ±n standard deviations of the regression residuals (errors).
These visual elements help traders judge how far current returns deviate from the modeled momentum trend, similar to Bollinger Bands but derived from a regression model rather than a moving average.
Key Metrics Provided
On each update, the indicator dynamically displays:
Momentum Slope (β₁): Indicates trend direction and strength. A higher absolute value implies a stronger effect.
Intercept (β₀): The predicted return when x = 0.
Pearson’s R: Correlation coefficient between x and y.
R² (Coefficient of Determination): Indicates how well the regression line explains the variance in y.
Standard Error of Residuals: Measures dispersion around the trendline.
t-Statistic of β₁: Used to evaluate statistical significance of the momentum slope.
These statistics are presented in a top-right summary table for immediate interpretation. A bottom-right signal table also summarizes key takeaways with visual indicators.
Features and Inputs
✅ Volatility-Adjusted Momentum : Reduces distortions from noisy price spikes.
✅ Custom Lookback Control : Set the number of bars to analyze regression.
✅ Extendable Trendlines : For continuous visualization into the future.
✅ Deviation Bands : Optional ±σ multipliers to detect abnormal price action.
✅ Contextual Tables : Help determine strength, direction, and significance of momentum.
✅ Separate Pane Design : Cleanly isolates statistical momentum from price chart.
How It Helps Traders
📉 Quantitative Strategy Validation:
Use the regression results to confirm whether a momentum-based strategy is worth pursuing on a specific asset or timeframe.
🔍 Regime Detection:
Track when momentum breaks down or reverses. Slope changes, drops in R², or weak t-stats can signal regime shifts.
📊 Trade Filtering:
Avoid false positives by entering trades only when momentum is both statistically significant and directionally favorable.
📈 Backtest Preparation:
Before running costly simulations, use this tool to pre-screen assets for exploitable return structures.
When to Use It
Before building or deploying a momentum strategy : Test if momentum exists and is statistically reliable.
During market transitions : Detect early signs of fading strength or reversal.
As part of an edge-stacking framework : Combine with other filters such as volatility compression, volume surges, or macro filters.
Conclusion
The Momentum Regression indicator offers a powerful fusion of statistical analysis and visual interpretation. By combining volatility-adjusted returns with real-time linear regression modeling, it helps quantify and qualify one of the most studied and traded anomalies in finance: momentum.
KST Strategy [Skyrexio]Overview
KST Strategy leverages Know Sure Thing (KST) indicator in conjunction with the Williams Alligator and Moving average to obtain the high probability setups. KST is used for for having the high probability to enter in the direction of a current trend when momentum is rising, Alligator is used as a short term trend filter, while Moving average approximates the long term trend and allows trades only in its direction. Also strategy has the additional optional filter on Choppiness Index which does not allow trades if market is choppy, above the user-specified threshold. Strategy has the user specified take profit and stop-loss numbers, but multiplied by Average True Range (ATR) value on the moment when trade is open. The strategy opens only long trades.
Unique Features
ATR based stop-loss and take profit. Instead of fixed take profit and stop-loss percentage strategy utilizes user chosen numbers multiplied by ATR for its calculation.
Configurable Trading Periods. Users can tailor the strategy to specific market windows, adapting to different market conditions.
Optional Choppiness Index filter. Strategy allows to choose if it will use the filter trades with Choppiness Index and set up its threshold.
Methodology
The strategy opens long trade when the following price met the conditions:
Close price is above the Alligator's jaw line
Close price is above the filtering Moving average
KST line of Know Sure Thing indicator shall cross over its signal line (details in justification of methodology)
If the Choppiness Index filter is enabled its value shall be less than user defined threshold
When the long trade is executed algorithm defines the stop-loss level as the low minus user defined number, multiplied by ATR at the trade open candle. Also it defines take profit with close price plus user defined number, multiplied by ATR at the trade open candle. While trade is in progress, if high price on any candle above the calculated take profit level or low price is below the calculated stop loss level, trade is closed.
Strategy settings
In the inputs window user can setup the following strategy settings:
ATR Stop Loss (by default = 1.5, number of ATRs to calculate stop-loss level)
ATR Take Profit (by default = 3.5, number of ATRs to calculate take profit level)
Filter MA Type (by default = Least Squares MA, type of moving average which is used for filter MA)
Filter MA Length (by default = 200, length for filter MA calculation)
Enable Choppiness Index Filter (by default = true, setting to choose the optional filtering using Choppiness index)
Choppiness Index Threshold (by default = 50, Choppiness Index threshold, its value shall be below it to allow trades execution)

User can choose the optimal parameters during backtesting on certain price chart.
Justification of Methodology
Before understanding why this particular combination of indicator has been chosen let's briefly explain what is KST, Williams Alligator, Moving Average, ATR and Choppiness Index.
The KST (Know Sure Thing) is a momentum oscillator developed by Martin Pring. It combines multiple Rate of Change (ROC) values, smoothed over different timeframes, to identify trend direction and momentum strength. First of all, what is ROC? ROC (Rate of Change) is a momentum indicator that measures the percentage change in price between the current price and the price a set number of periods ago.
ROC = 100 * (Current Price - Price N Periods Ago) / Price N Periods Ago
In our case N is the KST ROC Length inputs from settings, here we will calculate 4 different ROCs to obtain KST value:
KST = ROC1_smooth × 1 + ROC2_smooth × 2 + ROC3_smooth × 3 + ROC4_smooth × 4
ROC1 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #1), smoothed by KST SMA Length #1,
ROC2 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #2), smoothed by KST SMA Length #2,
ROC3 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #3), smoothed by KST SMA Length #3,
ROC4 = ROC(close, KST ROC Length #4), smoothed by KST SMA Length #4
Also for this indicator the signal line is calculated:
Signal = SMA(KST, KST Signal Line Length)
When the KST line rises, it indicates increasing momentum and suggests that an upward trend may be developing. Conversely, when the KST line declines, it reflects weakening momentum and a potential downward trend. A crossover of the KST line above its signal line is considered a buy signal, while a crossover below the signal line is viewed as a sell signal. If the KST stays above zero, it indicates overall bullish momentum; if it remains below zero, it points to bearish momentum. The KST indicator smooths momentum across multiple timeframes, helping to reduce noise and provide clearer signals for medium- to long-term trends.
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
The next indicator is Moving Average. It has a lot of different types which can be chosen to filter trades and the Least Squares MA is used by default settings. Let's briefly explain what is it.
The Least Squares Moving Average (LSMA) — also known as Linear Regression Moving Average — is a trend-following indicator that uses the least squares method to fit a straight line to the price data over a given period, then plots the value of that line at the most recent point. It draws the best-fitting straight line through the past N prices (using linear regression), and then takes the endpoint of that line as the value of the moving average for that bar. The LSMA aims to reduce lag and highlight the current trend more accurately than traditional moving averages like SMA or EMA.
Key Features:
It reacts faster to price changes than most moving averages.
It is smoother and less noisy than short-term EMAs.
It can be used to identify trend direction, momentum, and potential reversal points.
ATR (Average True Range) is a volatility indicator that measures how much an asset typically moves during a given period. It was introduced by J. Welles Wilder and is widely used to assess market volatility, not direction.
To calculate it first of all we need to get True Range (TR), this is the greatest value among:
High - Low
abs(High - Previous Close)
abs(Low - Previous Close)
ATR = MA(TR, n) , where n is number of periods for moving average, in our case equals 14.
ATR shows how much an asset moves on average per candle/bar. A higher ATR means more volatility; a lower ATR means a calmer market.
The Choppiness Index is a technical indicator that quantifies whether the market is trending or choppy (sideways). It doesn't indicate trend direction — only the strength or weakness of a trend. Higher Choppiness Index usually approximates the sideways market, while its low value tells us that there is a high probability of a trend.
Choppiness Index = 100 × log10(ΣATR(n) / (MaxHigh(n) - MinLow(n))) / log10(n)
where:
ΣATR(n) = sum of the Average True Range over n periods
MaxHigh(n) = highest high over n periods
MinLow(n) = lowest low over n periods
log10 = base-10 logarithm
Now let's understand how these indicators work in conjunction and why they were chosen for this strategy. KST indicator approximates current momentum, when it is rising and KST line crosses over the signal line there is high probability that short term trend is reversing to the upside and strategy allows to take part in this potential move. Alligator's jaw (blue) line is used as an approximation of a short term trend, taking trades only above it we want to avoid trading against trend to increase probability that long trade is going to be winning.
Almost the same for Moving Average, but it approximates the long term trend, this is just the additional filter. If we trade in the direction of the long term trend we increase probability that higher risk to reward trade will hit the take profit. Choppiness index is the optional filter, but if it turned on it is used for approximating if now market is in sideways or in trend. On the range bounded market the potential moves are restricted. We want to decrease probability opening trades in such condition avoiding trades if this index is above threshold value.
When trade is open script sets the stop loss and take profit targets. ATR approximates the current volatility, so we can make a decision when to exit a trade based on current market condition, it can increase the probability that strategy will avoid the excessive stop loss hits, but anyway user can setup how many ATRs to use as a stop loss and take profit target. As was said in the Methodology stop loss level is obtained by subtracting number of ATRs from trade opening candle low, while take profit by adding to this candle's close.

Approximate Entropy Zones [PhenLabs]Version: PineScript™ v6
Description
This indicator identifies periods of market complexity and randomness by calculating the Approximate Entropy (ApEn) of price action. As the movement of the market becomes complex, it means the current trend is losing steam and a reversal or consolidation is likely near. The indicator plots high-entropy periods as zones on your chart, providing a graphical suggestion to anticipate a potential market direction change. This indicator is designed to help traders identify favorable times to get in or out of a trade by highlighting when the market is in a state of disarray.
Points of Innovation
Advanced Complexity Analysis: Instead of relying on traditional momentum or trend indicators, this tool uses Approximate Entropy to quantify the unpredictability of price movements.
Dynamic Zone Creation: It automatically plots zones on the chart during periods of high entropy, providing a clear and intuitive visual guide.
Customizable Sensitivity: Users can fine-tune the ‘Entropy Threshold’ to adjust how frequently zones appear, allowing for calibration to different assets and timeframes.
Time-Based Zone Expiration: Zones can be set to expire after a specific time, keeping the chart clean and relevant.
Built-in Zone Size Filter: Excludes zones that form on excessively large candles, filtering out noise from extreme volatility events.
On-Chart Calibration Guide: A persistent note on the chart provides simple instructions for adjusting the entropy threshold, making it easy for users to optimize the indicator’s performance.
Core Components
Approximate Entropy (ApEn) Calculation: The core of the indicator, which measures the complexity or randomness of the price data.
Zone Plotting: Creates visual boxes on the chart when the calculated ApEn value exceeds a user-defined threshold.
Dynamic Zone Management: Manages the lifecycle of the zones, from creation to expiration, ensuring the chart remains uncluttered.
Customizable Settings: A comprehensive set of inputs that allow users to control the indicator’s sensitivity, appearance, and time-based behavior.
Key Features
Identifies Potential Reversals: The high-entropy zones can signal that a trend is nearing its end, giving traders an early warning.
Works on Any Timeframe: The indicator can be applied to any chart timeframe, from minutes to days.
Customizable Appearance: Users can change the color and transparency of the zones to match their chart’s theme.
Informative Labels: Each zone can display the calculated entropy value and the direction of the candle on which it formed.
Visualization
Entropy Zones: Shaded boxes that appear on the chart, highlighting candles with high complexity.
Zone Labels: Text within each zone that displays the ApEn value and a directional arrow (e.g., “0.525 ↑”).
Calibration Note: A small table in the top-right corner of the chart with instructions for adjusting the indicator’s sensitivity.
Usage Guidelines
Entropy Analysis
Source: The price data used for the ApEn calculation. (Default: close)
Lookback Length: The number of bars used in the ApEn calculation. (Default: 20, Range: 10-50)
Embedding Dimension (m): The length of patterns to be compared; a standard value for financial data. (Default: 2)
Tolerance Multiplier (r): Adjusts the tolerance for pattern matching; a larger value makes matching more lenient. (Default: 0.2)
Entropy Threshold: The ApEn value that must be exceeded to plot a zone. Increase this if too many zones appear; decrease it if too few appear. (Default: 0.525)
Time Settings
Analysis Timeframe: How long a zone remains on the chart after it forms. (Default: 1D)
Custom Period (Bars): The zone’s lifespan in bars if “Analysis Timeframe” is set to “Custom”. (Default: 1000)
Zone Settings
Zone Fill Color: The color of the entropy zones. (Default: #21f38a with 80% transparency)
Maximum Zone Size %: Filters out zones on candles that are larger than this percentage of their low price. (Default: 0.5)
Display Options
Show Entropy Label: Toggles the visibility of the text label inside each zone. (Default: true)
Label Text Position: The horizontal alignment of the text label. (Default: Right)
Show Calibration Note: Toggles the visibility of the calibration note in the corner of the chart. (Default: true)
Best Use Cases
Trend Reversal Trading: Identifying when a strong trend is likely to reverse or pause.
Breakout Confirmation: Using the absence of high entropy to confirm the strength of a breakout.
Ranging Market Identification: Periods of high entropy can indicate that a market is transitioning into a sideways or choppy phase.
Limitations
Not a Standalone Signal: This indicator should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis to confirm trading signals.
Lagging Nature: Like all indicators based on historical data, ApEn is a lagging measure and does not predict future price movements with certainty.
Calibration Required: The effectiveness of the indicator is highly dependent on the “Entropy Threshold” setting, which needs to be adjusted for different assets and timeframes.
What Makes This Unique
Quantifies Complexity: It provides a numerical measure of market complexity, offering a different perspective than traditional indicators.
Clear Visual Cues: The zones make it easy to see when the market is in a state of high unpredictability.
User-Friendly Design: With features like the on-chart calibration note, the indicator is designed to be easy to use and optimize.
How It Works
Calculate Standard Deviation: The indicator first calculates the standard deviation of the source price data over a specified lookback period.
Calculate Phi: It then calculates a value called “phi” for two different pattern lengths (embedding dimensions ‘m’ and ‘m+1’). This involves comparing sequences of data points to see how many are “similar” within a certain tolerance (determined by the standard deviation and the ‘r’ multiplier).
Calculate ApEn: The Approximate Entropy is the difference between the two phi values. A higher ApEn value indicates greater irregularity and unpredictability in the data.
Plot Zones: If the calculated ApEn exceeds the user-defined ‘Entropy Threshold’, a zone is plotted on the chart.
Note: The “Entropy Threshold” is the most important setting to adjust. If you see too many zones, increase the threshold. If you see too few, decrease it.
AWR_8DLRC1. Overview and Objective
The AWR_8DLRC indicator is designed to display multiple dynamic channels directly on your chart (with the overlay enabled). It creates dynamic envelopes based on a regression-like approach combined with a volatility measure derived from the root mean square error (RMSE). These channels can help identify support and resistance areas, overbought/oversold conditions, or even potential trend reversals by providing several layers of analysis using different multipliers and timeframes.
2. Input Parameters
Source and Multiplier
The indicator uses the closing price (close) as its default data source.
A floating-point parameter mult (default value: 3.0) is available. This multiplier is primarily used for channel 5, while other channels employ fixed multipliers (1, 2, or 3) to generate different sensitivity levels.
Channel Lengths
Several channels are calculated with distinct lookback lengths:
Channel 5: Uses a length of 1000 periods (its plot is commented out in the code, so it is not displayed by default).
Channel 6: Uses a length of 2000 periods.
Channel 7: Uses a length of 3000 periods.
Channel 8: Uses a length of 4000 periods.
Custom Colors and Transparencies
Each channel (or group of channels) can be customized with specific colors and transparency settings. For example, channel 6 uses a light yellow tone, channel 7 is red, and channel 8 is white.
Additionally, specific fill colors are defined for the shaded areas between the upper and lower lines of some channels, enhancing visual clarity.
3. Channel Calculation Mechanism
At the heart of the indicator is the function f_calcChannel(), which takes as input:
A data source (_src),
A period (_length), and
A multiplier (_mult).
The calculation process comprises several key steps:
Moving Averages Calculation
The function computes both a weighted moving average (WMA) and a simple moving average (SMA) over the defined length.
Baseline Determination
It then combines these averages into two values (A and B) using linear formulas (e.g., A = 4*b - 3*a and B = 3*a - 2*b). These values help to establish a baseline that represents the central trend during the lookback period.
Slope and Deviation Calculation
A slope (m) is calculated based on the difference between A and B.
The function iterates over the period, measuring the squared deviation between the actual data point and a corresponding value on the regression line. The sum of these squared deviations is used to compute the RMSE.
Defining Upper and Lower Bounds
The RMSE is multiplied by the provided multiplier (_mult) and then added to or subtracted from the baseline B to create the upper and lower channel boundaries.
This method produces an envelope that widens or narrows based on the volatility reflected by the RMSE.
This process is repeated using different multipliers (1, 2, and 3) for channels 6, 7, and 8, providing multiple levels that offer deeper insights into market conditions.
4. Chart Visualization
The indicator plots several lines and shaded regions:
Channels 6, 7, and 8: For each of these channels, three levels are calculated:
Levels with a multiplier of 1 (thin lines with a line width of 1),
Levels with a multiplier of 2 (medium lines with a line width of 2),
Levels with a multiplier of 3 (thick lines with a line width of 4).
To further enhance visual interpretation, shaded areas (fills) are added between the upper and lower lines — notably for the level with multiplier 3.
Channel 5: Although the calculations for channel 5 are included, its plot commands are commented out. This means it won’t display on the chart unless you uncomment the relevant lines by modifying the script.
5. Conditions and Alerts
Beyond the visual channels, the indicator integrates several alert conditions and visual markers:
Graphical Conditions:
The script defines conditions checking whether the price (i.e., the source) is above or below specific channel levels, particularly the levels calculated with multipliers 2 and 3.
“Mixed” conditions are also established to detect when the price is simultaneously above one set of levels and below another, aiming to highlight potential reversal areas.
Automated Alerts:
Alert conditions are programmed to notify you when the price crosses specific channel boundaries:
Alerts for conditions such as “Upper Channels 2” or “Lower Channels 2” indicate when prices exceed or fall below the second level of the channels.
Similarly, alerts for “Upper Channels 3” and “Lower Channels 3” correspond to the more extreme boundaries defined by the multiplier of 3.
Visual Symbols:
The indicator employs the plotchar() function to place symbols (like 🌙, ⚠️, 🪐, and ☢️) directly on the chart. These symbols make it easy to spot when the price meets these crucial levels.
These alert features are especially valuable for traders who rely on real-time notifications to adjust positions or watch for potential trend shifts.
6. How to Use the Indicator
Installation and Setup:
Copy the provided code into your Pine Script editor on your charting platform (e.g., TradingView) and add the indicator to your chart.
Customize the parameters according to your trading strategy:
Channel Lengths: Modify the lookback periods to see how the envelope adapts.
Colors and Transparencies: Adjust these to fit your display preferences.
Multipliers: Experiment with the multipliers to observe how different settings affect the channel widths.
Interpreting the Channels:
The upper and lower bands represent dynamic thresholds that change with market volatility.
A price that nears an upper boundary might indicate an overextended move upward, whereas a break beyond these dynamic boundaries could signal a potential trend reversal.
Utilizing Alerts:
Configure notifications based on the alert conditions so you can be alerted when the price moves beyond the defined channel levels. This can help trigger entry or exit signals, or simply keep you informed of significant price movements.
Multi-Level Analysis:
The strength of this indicator lies in its multi-level approach. With three defined levels for channels 6, 7, and 8, you gain a more nuanced view of market volatility and trend strength.
For instance, a price crossing the level with a multiplier of 2 might indicate the start of a trend change, while a break of the level with multiplier 3 might confirm a strong trend movement.
7. In Summary
The AWR_8DLRC indicator is a comprehensive tool for drawing dynamic channels based on a regression and RMSE-driven volatility measure. It offers:
Multiple channel levels, each with different lookback periods and multipliers.
Shaded regions between channel boundaries for rapid visual interpretation.
Alert conditions to notify you immediately when the price hits critical levels.
Visual markers directly on the chart to highlight key moments of price action.
This indicator is particularly suited for technical traders seeking to dynamically identify support and resistance zones with a responsive alert system. Its customizable settings and rich array of signals provide an excellent framework to refine your trading decisions.
Trend Scanner ProTrend Scanner Pro, Robust Trend Direction and Strength Estimator
Trend Scanner Pro is designed to evaluate the current market trend with maximum robustness, providing both direction and strength based on statistically reliable data.
This indicator builds upon the core logic of a previous script I developed, called Best SMA Finder. While the original script focused on identifying the most profitable SMA length based on backtested trade performance, Trend Scanner Pro takes that foundation further to serve a different purpose: analyzing and quantifying the actual trend state in real time.
It begins by testing hundreds of SMA lengths, from 10 to 1000 periods. Each one is scored using a custom robustness formula that combines profit factor, number of trades, and win rate. Only SMAs with a sufficient number of trades are retained, ensuring statistical validity and avoiding curve fitting.
The SMA with the highest robustness score is selected as the dynamic reference point. The script then calculates how far the price deviates from it using rolling standard deviation, assigning a trend strength score from -5 (strong bearish) to +5 (strong bullish), with 0 as neutral.
Two detection modes are available:
Slope mode, based on SMA slope reversals
Bias mode, based on directional shifts relative to deviation zones
Optional features:
Deviation bands for visual structure
Candle coloring to reflect trend strength
Compact table showing real-time trend status
This tool is intended for traders who want an adaptive, objective, and statistically grounded assessment of market trend conditions.
5-Day APM for Forex PairsThis script calculates the 5-Day Average Pip Movement (APM) for major Forex pairs.
It displays the average daily range (in pips) over the past 5 trading days using true high-low price movement.
The script is optimized for clarity and minimalism — showing a single floating label on the main chart for pairs like GBPUSD, USDJPY, EURUSD, etc.
Automatically adjusts pip calculation for JPY pairs (×100) and other pairs (×10000).
✅ Great for identifying high-volatility vs low-volatility conditions
✅ Clean design with no clutter
✅ Only works on major FX pairs (whitelisted)
Ergodic Market Divergence (EMD)Ergodic Market Divergence (EMD)
Bridging Statistical Physics and Market Dynamics Through Ensemble Analysis
The Revolutionary Concept: When Physics Meets Trading
After months of research into ergodic theory—a fundamental principle in statistical mechanics—I've developed a trading system that identifies when markets transition between predictable and unpredictable states. This indicator doesn't just follow price; it analyzes whether current market behavior will persist or revert, giving traders a scientific edge in timing entries and exits.
The Core Innovation: Ergodic Theory Applied to Markets
What Makes Markets Ergodic or Non-Ergodic?
In statistical physics, ergodicity determines whether a system's future resembles its past. Applied to trading:
Ergodic Markets (Mean-Reverting)
- Time averages equal ensemble averages
- Historical patterns repeat reliably
- Price oscillates around equilibrium
- Traditional indicators work well
Non-Ergodic Markets (Trending)
- Path dependency dominates
- History doesn't predict future
- Price creates new equilibrium levels
- Momentum strategies excel
The Mathematical Framework
The Ergodic Score combines three critical divergences:
Ergodic Score = (Price Divergence × Market Stress + Return Divergence × 1000 + Volatility Divergence × 50) / 3
Where:
Price Divergence: How far current price deviates from market consensus
Return Divergence: Momentum differential between instrument and market
Volatility Divergence: Volatility regime misalignment
Market Stress: Adaptive multiplier based on current conditions
The Ensemble Analysis Revolution
Beyond Single-Instrument Analysis
Traditional indicators analyze one chart in isolation. EMD monitors multiple correlated markets simultaneously (SPY, QQQ, IWM, DIA) to detect systemic regime changes. This ensemble approach:
Reveals Hidden Divergences: Individual stocks may diverge from market consensus before major moves
Filters False Signals: Requires broader market confirmation
Identifies Regime Shifts: Detects when entire market structure changes
Provides Context: Shows if moves are isolated or systemic
Dynamic Threshold Adaptation
Unlike fixed-threshold systems, EMD's boundaries evolve with market conditions:
Base Threshold = SMA(Ergodic Score, Lookback × 3)
Adaptive Component = StDev(Ergodic Score, Lookback × 2) × Sensitivity
Final Threshold = Smoothed(Base + Adaptive)
This creates context-aware signals that remain effective across different market environments.
The Confidence Engine: Know Your Signal Quality
Multi-Factor Confidence Scoring
Every signal receives a confidence score based on:
Signal Clarity (0-35%): How decisively the ergodic threshold is crossed
Momentum Strength (0-25%): Rate of ergodic change
Volatility Alignment (0-20%): Whether volatility supports the signal
Market Quality (0-20%): Price convergence and path dependency factors
Real-Time Confidence Updates
The Live Confidence metric continuously updates, showing:

Statistical Pairs Trading IndicatorZ-Score Stat Trading — Statistical Pairs Trading Indicator
📊🔗
---
What is it?
Z-Score Stat Trading is a powerful indicator for statistical pairs trading and quantitative analysis of two correlated assets.
It calculates the Z-Score of the log-price spread between any two symbols you choose, providing both long-term and short-term Z-Score signals.
You’ll also see real-time correlation, volatility, spread, and the number of long/short signals in a handy on-chart table!
---
How to Use 🛠️
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Select two assets (symbols) to analyze in the settings.
3. Watch the Z-Score plots (blue and orange lines) and threshold levels (+2, -2 by default).
4. Check the info table for:
- Correlation
- Volatility
- Spread
- Number of long (NL) and short (NS) signals in the last 1000 bars
5. Set up alerts for signal generation or threshold crossings if you want to be notified automatically.
---
Trading Strategy 💡
- This indicator is designed for statistical arbitrage (mean reversion) strategies.
- Long Signal (🟢):
When both Z-Scores drop below the negative threshold (e.g., -2), a long signal is generated.
→ Buy Symbol A, Sell Symbol B, expecting the spread to revert to the mean.
- Short Signal (🔴):
When both Z-Scores rise above the positive threshold (e.g., +2), a short signal is generated.
→ Sell Symbol A, Buy Symbol B, again expecting mean reversion.
- The info table helps you quickly assess the frequency of signals and the current statistical relationship between your chosen assets.
---
Best Practices & Warnings 🚦
- Avoid high leverage! Pairs trading can be risky, especially during periods of divergence. Use conservative position sizing.
- Check for cointegration: Before using this indicator, make sure both assets are cointegrated or have a strong historical relationship. This increases the reliability of mean reversion signals.
- Check correlation: Only use asset pairs with a high correlation (preferably 0.8–0.9 or higher) for best results. The correlation value is shown in the info table.
- Scale in and out gradually: When entering or exiting positions, consider doing so in parts rather than all at once. This helps manage slippage and risk, especially in volatile markets.
---
⚠️ Note on Performance:
This indicator may work a bit slowly, especially on large timeframes or long chart histories, because the calculation of NL and NS (number of long/short signals) is computationally intensive.

HiLo EMA Custom bandsHILo Ema custom bands
This advanced technical indicator is a powerful variation of "HiLo Ema squeeze bands" that combines the best elements of Donchian channels and EMAs. It's specially designed to identify price squeezes before significant market moves while providing dynamic support/resistance levels and predictive price targets.
Indicator Concept:
The indicator initializes EMAs at each new high or low - the upper EMA tracks highs while the lower EMA tracks lows. It draws maximum of 6 custom bands based on percentage, fixed value or Atr
Upper EM bands are drawn below uper ema, Lower EMA bands are drawn above lower ema
Customizable Options:
Ema length: 200 default
Calculation type: Ema (Default), HILO
Calculation type: Percent,Fixed Value, ATR
Band Value: Percent/Value/ATR multiple This is value to use for calculation type
Band Selection: Both,Upper,Lower
Key Features:
You can choose to draw either of one or both, the latter can be overwhelming initially but as you get used to it, it becomes a powerful tool.
When both bands are selected, upper and lower bands provide provides dual references and intersections
This creates a more trend-responsive alternative to traditional Donchian channels with clearly defined zones for trade planning.
If you select percaentage, note that the calulation is based FROM the respective EMA bands. So bands from lower EMA band will appear narrower compared to the those drawn from upper EMA band
Price targets or reversals:
Look of alignment of lines and price. The current level of one order could align with that of previous level of a different order because often markets move in steps
Settings Guide:
Recommended Settings:
Ema length: 200
Use one of the bands (not both) if using large length of say 1000
Calculation type: EMA
HILO will draw donchian like bands, this is useful if you only want flat price levels. In a rising market use upper and vise versa
Calculation type:
percentage for indices : 5, for symbols 10 or higher based on symbol volatility
Fixed value: about 10% of symbol value converted to value
Atr: 2 ideally
Perfect for swing traders and position traders looking for a more sophisticated volatility-based overlay that adapts to changing market conditions and provides predictive reversal levels.

This advanced technical indicator is a powerful variation of "HiLo Ema squeeze bands" that combines the best elements of Donchian channels and EMAs. It's specially designed to identify price squeezes before significant market moves while providing dynamic support/resistance levels and predictive price targets.
Indicator Concept:
The indicator initializes EMAs at each new high or low - the upper EMA tracks highs while the lower EMA tracks lows. The price range between upper and lower bands is divided into 4 equal zones by these lines:
Upper2 (uppermost line)
Upper1 (upper quartile)
Middle (center line)
Lower1 (lower quartile)
Lower2 (lowermost line)
This creates a more trend-responsive alternative to traditional Donchian channels with clearly defined zones for trade planning.
Key Features:
Dual EMA Band System: Utilizes both short-term and long-term EMAs to create adaptive price channels that respond to different market cycles
Quartile Divisions: Each band set includes middle lines and quartile divisions for more precise entry and exit points
Customizable Parameters: Easily adjust EMA periods and display options to suit your trading style and timeframe
Visual Color Zones: Clear color-coded zones help quickly identify bullish and bearish areas
Optional Extra Divisions: Add more granular internal lines (eighth divisions) for enhanced precision with longer EMA periods
Price Labels Option: Display exact price values for key levels directly on the chart
Price Target Prediction:
One of the most valuable features of this indicator is its ability to help predict potential reversal points:
When price breaks above the Upper2 level, look for potential reversals when the new Upper1 or Middle line aligns with previous Upper2 levels
When price breaks below the Lower2 level, look for potential reversals when the new Lower1 or Middle line aligns with previous Lower2 levels
Settings Guide:
Recommended Settings: 200 for Short EMA, 1000 for Long EMA works extremely well across most timeframes and symbols
Display options allow you to show/hide either band system based on your analysis preferences
The new option to divide the long EMA range into 8 parts instead of 4 is particularly useful when:
Long EMA period is >500
Short EMA is switched off and long EMA is used independently
Perfect for swing traders and position traders looking for a more sophisticated volatility-based overlay that adapts to changing market conditions and provides predictive reversal levels.
Note: This indicator works well across multiple timeframes but is especially effective on H4, Daily and Weekly charts for trend trading.
Moving Average Candles**Moving Average Candles — MA-Based Smoothed Candlestick Overlay**
This script replaces traditional price candles with smoothed versions calculated using various types of moving averages. Instead of plotting raw price data, each OHLC component (Open, High, Low, Close) is independently smoothed using your selected moving average method.
---
### 📌 Features:
- Choose from 13 MA types: `SMA`, `EMA`, `RMA`, `WMA`, `VWMA`, `HMA`, `T3`, `DEMA`, `TEMA`, `KAMA`, `ZLEMA`, `McGinley`, `EPMA`
- Fully configurable moving average length (1–1000)
- Color-coded candles based on smoothed Open vs Close
- Works directly on price charts as an overlay
---
### 🎯 Use Cases:
- Visualize smoothed market structure more clearly
- Reduce noise in price action for better trend analysis
- Combine with other indicators or strategies for confluence
---
> ⚠️ **Note:** Since all OHLC values are based on moving averages, these candles do **not** represent actual market trades. Use them for trend and structure analysis, not trade entries based on precise levels.

ATR ComboA Collection of three ATRs.
The whole idea of this indicator is to easily visualise the relationship of volatility to the current price action.
The default settings are:
5 Moving Average (Pink)
50 Moving Average (Blue)
1000 Moving Average (Yellow)
Using the default settings, the Yellow line represents the larger-scale volatility average.
the Blue line represents more recent volatility and the Pink lien represents the very recent average.
Using this indicator is possible in a number of ways:
If volatility is high and directional, you will see a sharp increase in the Pink line.
If volatility is high and choppy, the Pink line will be well above the Blue line and will oscillate up and down.
If volatility is starting to cool down, the Pink line will approach the Blue and Yellow lines.

Best SMA FinderThis script, Best SMA Finder, is a tool designed to identify the most robust simple moving average (SMA) length for a given chart, based on historical backtest performance. It evaluates hundreds of SMA values (from 10 to 1000) and selects the one that provides the best balance between profitability, consistency, and trade frequency.
What it does:
The script performs individual backtests for each SMA length using either "Long Only" or "Buy & Sell" logic, as selected by the user. For each tested SMA, it computes:
- Total number of trades
- Profit Factor (total profits / total losses)
- Win Rate
- A composite Robustness Score, which integrates Profit Factor, number of trades (log-scaled), and win rate.
Only SMA configurations that meet the user-defined minimum trade count are considered valid. Among all valid candidates, the script selects the SMA length with the highest robustness score and plots it on the chart.
How to use it:
- Choose the strategy type: "Long Only" or "Buy & Sell"
- Set the minimum trade count to filter out statistically irrelevant results
- Enable or disable the summary stats table (default: enabled)
The selected optimal SMA is plotted on the chart in blue. The optional table in the top-right corner shows the corresponding SMA length, trade count, Profit Factor, Win Rate, and Robustness Score for transparency.
Key Features:
- Exhaustive SMA optimization across 991 values
- Customizable trade direction and minimum trade filters
- In-chart visualization of results via table and plotted optimal SMA
- Uses a custom robustness formula to rank SMA lengths
Use cases:
Ideal for traders who want to backtest and auto-select a historically effective SMA without manual trial-and-error. Useful for swing and trend-following strategies across different timeframes.
📌 Limitations:
- Not a full trading strategy with position sizing or stop-loss logic
- Only one entry per direction at a time is allowed
- Designed for exploration and optimization, not as a ready-to-trade system
This script is open-source and built entirely from original code and logic. It does not replicate any closed-source script or reuse significant external open-source components.
