MTA-Traling StopIntroduction
Based on my previous indicator , this indicator plot a trailing stop using classic conditions.
Using The Indicator
Like any trailing stop when price is higher than the trailing stop this imply a buy signals, when price is lower than the trailing stop this imply a sell signal. It is possible to use decimals instead of integers for length as shown here :
length = 14.7
The indicator tend to react faster to price movements when a trend has been really long, this methodology is similar to the one used by the parabolic sar.
Downsides
Lack of robustness with the length parameter, the behaviour of the trailing stop can be hard to predict. There is a real need for control.
Conclusion
The indicator can be adaptive, even if it already is in a certain way, by changing the alpha variable at the start considering that 0 < alpha < 1. Its not recommended to use it right now except for testing/coding purpose.
It is clear that i'm not enthusiast when it come to this script, there is a real lack of accuracy, i still hope it can be of use.

Chandelier ExitThis is a redesign of the Chandelier Exit indicator. It removes stupid transitions between Chandelier Exit' states and highlights initial points for both lines.
This indicator was originally developed by Charles Le Beau and popularized by Dr. Alexander Elder in his book "Come Into My Trading Room: A Complete Guide to Trading" (2002).
In short, this is a trailing stop-loss based on the Average True Range (ATR).
Trailing Resistance MTFTRAILING RESISTANCE INDICATOR is a helpful tool for traders to help one of the common problems that they face: where to buy/sell?
by using trailing resistance you can easily decide and see possible upward movements and understand if you are in a safe zone.
Using Trailing Resistance is just simple:
Go long/ Buy when price crosses above the indicator,
Stay on short position if prices are below the indicator.
The indicator is calculated from previous Lows and doesn't the value won't change until prices makes higher lows.

The indicator is calculated from previous Lows and doesn't the value won't change until prices makes higher lows.
Simple Trailing Buy & Stop StrategyAllows you to backtest a simple percentage based trailing stop, with a trailing buy. Experiment with different percentages on different timeframes for different charts.
For BTCUSD, on daily 4.3% stop and 1.9% buy works well, while on 4hr a 1.5% stop and 1.9% buy works best.
Please comment with any other combos that work well for you on different markets or timeframes.
CoryT's Noro's Ichimoku AlertsA few months ago I took Noro's Ichimoku Cloud and used the AV bot template to throw stops on it. I took some code from JustUncleL
to make it not so hideous. Trailing Stops are turned off, stop losses are turned off (you really don't need them with this), and this is currently a Long/Short strategy, the Longs Only and Shorts Only options are broken right now, I'm tired and you guys can either fix it yourselves or deal with it like this for now.
Hint: If you wanna use this as a long-only strategy just have AV close your buy orders whenever a short is triggered.

Binque's Stop Loss IndicatorBinque's Stop Loss Indicator is a great way to visualize a trailing stop loss based on a percent from the high. i.e. If the high was $10 of a trading day and your stop loss was set at 5% (percent) then your chart would show a small dot 5% below the high of the day. This is a great way to quickly see a trailing stock idea. Change the color to match your back ground. Adjust your trailing stop loss to fit your trading style.
Note: This indicator is calculated off of the daily high.
3 Duck's Trading System from Babypips.comThe 3 Duck's Trading System from Babypips.com
The 3 Duck's Trading System is the most popular and active trading system thread on the the babypips.com forum. It is a system that is mainly for beginners because it teaches you discipline, learning to cope with price moving against your position and learning to stay in a trade and keep profits running. For the thread and more info on the 3 Duck's Trading System click here
How does it work?
The system is a very simple enter/exit based on the 60 SMA of 3 different time frames: 4 hour, 1 hour and 5 minute.
The Rules, er, the Ducks! The Ducks must all be in a row for a trade to take place!
Duck 1 - To go long, price must be above the 60 SMA on the 4 hour chart.
Duck 2 - To go long, price must be above the 60 SMA on the 1 hour chart.
Duck 3 - To go long, price must cross above the 60 SMA on the 5 minute chart and the 60 SMA of the 5 minute chart must be below that of the 4 hour and 1 hour chart. (obviously the reverse for shorting)
YOU MUST USE THIS SYSTEM ONLY ON THE 5 MINUTE CHART.
I say this because I have already charted all of the Ducks into the 5 minute chart so you don't have to flip back and forth.
I have also added some inputs for profit targets, stop targets, trailing stops and times to trade for backtesting.
If you have any questions or comments, please let me know! If you see I messed up on something, please let me know!
Also a VERY special thanks to the babypips.com user Captain_Currency . He wrote this strategy 10 years ago (2007 was 10 years ago?!) and he is still active on the thread and posting results and offering help!
Open Close Cross Strategy R5 revised by JustUncleLThis revision is an open Public release, with just some minor changes. It is a revision of the Strategy "Open Close Cross Strategy R2" originally published by @JayRogers.
*** USE AT YOUR OWN RISK ***
JayRogers : "There are drawing/painting issues in pinescript when working across resolutions/timeframes that I simply cannot fix here.. I will not be putting any further effort into developing this until such a time when workarounds become available."
NOTE: Re-painting has not been observed with the default set up, nor with Alternate resolution multiplier up to 5.
Description:
Strategy based around Open-Close Moving Average Crossovers optionally from a higher time frame.
Setup:
I have generally found that setting the strategy resolution to 3-5x that of the chart you are viewing tends to yield the best results, regardless of which MA option you may choose (if any) BUT can cause a lot of false positives - be aware of this. JustUncleL: using one of the Smoothed MA helps reduce false positives.
Don't aim for perfection. Just aim to get a reasonably snug fit with the O-C band, with good runs of green and red. JustUncleL: using SMMA (8 to 10) gives a good fit.
Option to either use basic open and close series data, or pick your poison with a wide array of MA types.
Optional Stop Loss and Target Profit for damage mitigation if desired (can be toggled on/off)
Positions get taken automatically following a crossover - which is why it's better to set the resolution of the script greater than that of your chart, so that the trades get taken sooner rather than later.
If you make use of the stops/target profit, be sure to take your time tweaking the values. Cutting it too fine will cost you profits but keep you safer, while letting them loose could lead to more draw down than you can handle.
Revsion R5 Changes by JustUncleL
Corrected cross over calculations, sometimes gave false signals.
Corrected Alternate Time calculation to allow for Daily,Weekly and Monthly charts.
Open Public release.
Revision R4 By JustUncleL
Change the way the Alternate resolution in selected, use a Multiplier of the base Time Frame instead, this makes it easy to switch between base time frames.
Added TMA and SSMA moving average options. But DEMA is still giving the best results.
Using "calc_on_every_tick=false" ensures results between back testing and real time are similar.
Added Option to Disable the coloring of the bars.
Updated default settings.
R3 Changes by JustUncleL:
Returned a simplified version of the open/close channel, it shows strength of current trend.
Added Target Profit Option.
Added option to reduce the number of historical bars, overcomes the too many trades limit error.
Simplified the strategy code.
Removed Trailing Stop option, not required and in my option does not work well in Trading View, it also gives false and unrealistic performance results in back testing.
R2 Changes by @JayRogers:
Simplified and cleaned up plotting, now just shows a Moving Average derived from the average of open/close.
Tried very hard to alleviate painting issues caused by referencing alternate resolution.

AMF PG Strategy v2.3AMF PG Strategy v2.3
1. Core Philosophy: Filtered and Volatility-Aware Trend Following
"AMF PG Strategy" is an advanced trend-following system designed to adapt to the dynamic nature of modern markets. The strategy's core philosophy is not just to follow the trend but also to wait for the right conditions to enter the market.
This is not a "black box." It is a rules-based framework that gives the user full control over various market filters. By requiring multiple conditions to be met simultaneously, the strategy aims to filter out low-quality signals and focus only on high-probability trend opportunities.
2. Core Engine: AMF PG Trend Following
At the heart of the strategy is a proprietary, volatility-aware trend-following mechanism called AMF PG (Praetorian Guard). This engine operates as follows:
Dynamic Bands: Creates a dynamic upper and lower band around the price that is constantly recalculated. The width of these bands is not fixed; It dynamically adjusts based on recent market volatility, volume flow, and price expansion. This adaptive structure allows the strategy to adapt to both calm and high-volatility markets.
Entry Signals: A buy signal is triggered when the price rises above the upper band. A sell signal is triggered when the price falls below the lower band. However, these signals are executed only when all the active filters described below give the green light.
Trailing Stop-Loss: When a position is entered, the opposite band automatically acts as a trailing stop-loss level. For example, when a buy position is opened, the lower band follows the price as a stop-loss. This allows for profit retention and trend continuation.
3. Multi-Layered Filter System: Understanding the Market
The power of this strategy comes from its modular filter system, which allows the user to filter market conditions based on their own analysis. Each filter can be enabled or disabled individually in the settings:
Filter 1: Trend Strength (ADX Filter): This filter confirms whether there is a strong trend in the market. It uses the ADX (Average Directional Index) indicator and only allows trades if the ADX value is above a certain threshold. This helps avoid trading in weak or directionless markets. It also confirms the direction of the trend by checking the position of the DMI (+DI and -DI) lines.
Filter 2: Sideways Market (Chop Index Filter): This filter determines whether the market is excessively choppy or directionless. Using the Chop Index, this filter aims to protect against fakeouts by blocking trades when the market is highly indecisive.
Filter 3: Market Structure (Hurst Exponent Filter): This is one of the strategy's most advanced filters. It analyzes the current market behavior using the Hurst Exponent. This mathematical tool attempts to determine whether a market tends to trend (permanent), tends to revert to the mean (anti-permanent), or moves randomly. This filter ensures that signals are generated only when market structure supports trending trades.
4. Risk Management: Maximum Drawdown Protection
This strategy includes a built-in capital protection mechanism. Users can specify the percentage of their capital they will tolerate to decline from its peak. If the strategy's capital reaches this set drawdown limit, the protection feature is activated, closing all open positions and preventing new trades from being opened. This acts as an emergency brake to protect capital against unexpected market conditions.
5. Automation Ready: Customizable Webhook Alerts
The strategy is designed for traders who want to automate their signals. From the Settings menu, you can configure custom alert messages in JSON format, compatible with third-party automation services (via Webhooks).
6. Strategy Backtest Information
Please note that past performance is not indicative of future results. The published chart and performance report were generated on the 4-hour timeframe of the BTCUSD pair with the following settings:
Test Period: January 1, 2016 - October 31, 2025
Default Position Size: 15% of Capital
Pyramiding: Closed
Commission: 0.0008
Slippage: 2 ticks (Please enter the slippage you used in your own tests)
Testing Approach: The published test includes 423 trades and is statistically significant. It is strongly recommended that you test on different assets and timeframes for your own analysis. The default settings are a template and should be adjusted by the user for their own analysis.
VWAP & Band Cross Strategy v6 - AdvancedThese are a few updates made to the original script. The daily take profit and stop loss functions correctly for 1 contract but because of the pyramiding input even if not used you'll need to multiply the values by the number of contracts to keep consistent results. I have been unable to correct that function. Let me know if you test the script and have any recommendations for improvement. If trading an actual account I do recommend setting hard daily limits with your provider because there is still slippage from the original exit alerts even with the daily stop loss in place.
1. Real-Time Execution & Hard PnL Limits (The Focus)
The most critical changes were implemented to ensure the daily profit and loss limits act as hard, real-time barriers instead of waiting for the candle to close.
• Intrabar Tick Execution: The parameter calc_on_every_tick=true was added to the strategy() declaration. This forces the entire script to re-evaluate its logic on every single price update (tick), enabling immediate action.
• Real-Time PnL Tracking: The PnL calculation was updated to track the total_daily_pnl by summing the realized profit/loss (from closed trades) and the unrealized profit/loss (strategy.openprofit) on every tick.
• Immediate Closure: The script now checks the total_daily_pnl against the user-defined limits (daily_take_profit_value, daily_stop_loss_value) and immediately executes strategy.close_all() the moment the threshold is breached, preventing further trading.
• Combined Risk Enforcement: The user-defined "Max Intraday Risk ($)" and the "Daily Stop Loss (Value)" are compared, and the script enforces the tighter of the two limits.
2. Visibility and External Alerting
To address the unavoidable issue of slippage (which causes price overshoot in fast markets even with tick execution), dedicated alert mechanisms were added.
• Dedicated Alert Condition: An alertcondition named DAILY PNL LIMIT REACHED was added. This allows you to set up a TradingView alert that triggers the instant the daily_limit_reached variable turns true, giving you the fastest possible notification.
• Visual Marker: A large red triangle (\u25b2) is plotted on the chart using plotchar at the exact moment the daily limit condition is met, providing a clear visual confirmation of the trigger bar.
3. Strategy Features and Input Flexibility
Several user-requested features were integrated to make the strategy more robust and customizable.
• Trailing Stop / Breakeven (TSL/BE): A new exit option, Fixed Ticks + TSL, was added, allowing you to set a fixed profit target while also deploying a trailing stop or breakeven level based on points/ticks gained.
• Multiple Exit Types: The exit strategy was expanded to include logic for several types: Fixed Ticks, ATR-based, Capped ATR-based, VWAP Cross, and Price/Band Crosses.
• Pyramiding Control: An input Max Pyramiding Entries was introduced to control how many positions the strategy can have open at the same time.
• Confirmation Logic Toggle: Added an input to choose how multiple confirmation indicators (RSI, SMMA, MACD) are combined: "AND" (all must be true) or "OR" (at least one must be true).
• Indicator Confirmations: Logic for three external indicators—RSI, SMMA (EMA), and MACD—was fully integrated to act as optional filters for entry.
• VWAP Reset Anchors: Logic was corrected to properly reset the VWAP calculation based on the selected period ("Daily", "Weekly", or "Session") by using Pine Script v6's required anchor series.
Trading Day Filters: Inputs were added to select which specific days of the week the strategy is allowed to trade.

Mayer Mutiple | QRMayer Multiple | QR — Publication Description
What it does
Mayer Multiple | QR is a cycle/valuation style oscillator that measures how far price sits above or below its longer-term average and normalizes that distance by current volatility. It helps you spot overheated extensions and deep discounts relative to trend, with adaptive bands that expand/contract as conditions change.
How it works (principle)
The script compares price to a long lookback moving average (default uses a 200-period average of ohlc4) and turns that gap into an oscillator.
It then computes a rolling standard deviation of that oscillator to build dynamic upper/lower bands (±1σ, ±2σ, ±3σ).
When the oscillator rises above the upper bands, the move is statistically stretched (potential distribution/risk). When it falls below the lower bands, it’s statistically depressed (potential accumulation/opportunity).
A small baseline band around zero (scaled from volatility) provides a quick trend-bias read without crowding the view.
Why this matters: Classic “Mayer Multiple” tools use a fixed threshold over a single moving average. This version is volatility-aware: its bands adapt to the market’s current dispersion, reducing false signals in quiet regimes and avoiding constant “overheat” flags in high-vol regimes.
What you see on the chart
White oscillator line: volatility-normalized deviation from the long-term average.
Adaptive bands:
Upper 1/2/3σ (shaded blue tones) = progressively more extended.
Lower 1/2/3σ (shaded green tones) = progressively more discounted.
Baseline ribbon: subtle band around zero for quick bias.
Background highlights: optional flashes when the oscillator exceeds the ±3σ extremes.
All visuals are generated by this script alone; no other indicator is required to understand usage.
How to use it
Context: Use on higher timeframes to gauge where price sits versus its long-term “fair value corridor.”
Signal reading:
Above +1σ/+2σ/+3σ: extension → consider de-risking, trailing stops, or waiting for mean reversion.
Below −1σ/−2σ/−3σ: discount → consider scaling in, watching for trend resumption cues.
Confluence: Treat it as a condition, not a trigger. Pair with structure (higher highs/lows), breadth, or momentum for entries/exits.
Regime awareness: As volatility rises, bands widen; prioritize trend context over single print extremes.
Inputs you can tune
Color mode: preset palettes for lines/fills/backgrounds.
Dynamic Threshold Length: lookback for the volatility (σ) calculation driving the adaptive bands.
Source: price input used for the long-term reference.
Band toggles: show/hide ±1σ / ±2σ / ±3σ envelopes to reduce clutter.
Originality & value
Adaptive, volatility-aware implementation of a Mayer-style concept: rather than one fixed threshold, it scales to current regime, keeping readings comparable across cycles.
Clear, clean presentation (oscillator + bands + optional background) designed for publication with a clean chart so the script’s output is immediately identifiable.
Offers actionable context (stretch/discount zones) while leaving trade execution to the user’s process.
Limitations & good practices
Best used for context and risk framing, not stand-alone entries.
Adaptive bands depend on the lookback you choose; very short windows can overfit, very long windows can lag.
Extremes can persist in strong trends—don’t fade momentum blindly.

Trend Magic EMA RMI Trend Sniper📌 Indicator Name:
Trend Magic + EMA + MA Smoothing + RMI Trend Sniper
📝 Description:
This is a multi-functional trend and momentum indicator that combines four powerful tools into a single overlay:
Trend Magic – Plots a dynamic support/resistance line based on CCI and ATR.
Helps identify trend direction (green = bullish, red = bearish).
Acts as a trailing stop or dynamic level for trade entries/exits.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA) – Smooths price data to highlight the underlying trend.
Customizable length, source, and offset.
Serves as a trend filter or moving support/resistance.
MA Smoothing + Bollinger Bands (Optional) – Adds a secondary smoothing filter based on your choice of SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or SMMA.
Optional Bollinger Bands visualize volatility expansion/contraction.
Great for spotting consolidations and breakout opportunities.
RMI Trend Sniper – A momentum-based system combining RSI and MFI.
Highlights bullish (green) or bearish (red) conditions.
Plots a Range-Weighted Moving Average (RWMA) channel to gauge price positioning.
Provides visual BUY/SELL labels and optional bar coloring for fast decision-making.
📊 Uses & Trading Applications:
✅ Trend Identification: Spot the dominant market direction quickly with Trend Magic & EMA.
✅ Momentum Confirmation: RMI Sniper helps confirm whether the market has strong bullish or bearish pressure.
✅ Dynamic Support/Resistance: Trend Magic & EMA act as adaptive levels for stop-loss or trailing positions.
✅ Volatility Analysis: Optional Bollinger Bands show squeezes and potential breakout setups.
✅ Entry/Exit Signals: BUY/SELL alerts and color-coded candles make spotting trade opportunities simple.
💡 Best Use Cases:
Swing Trading: Follow Trend Magic + EMA alignment for higher probability trades.
Scalping/Intraday: Use RMI signals with bar coloring for quick momentum entries.
Trend Following Strategies: Ride trends until Trend Magic flips direction.
Breakout Trading: Watch for price closing outside the Bollinger Bands with RMI confirmation.
QZ Trend (Crypto Edition) v1.1a: Donchian, EMA, ATR, Liquidity/FThe "QZ Trend (Crypto Edition)" is a rules-based trend-following breakout strategy for crypto spot or perpetual contracts, focusing on following trends, prioritizing risk control, seeking small losses and big wins, and trading only when advantageous.
Key mechanisms include:
- Market filters: Screen favorable conditions via ADX (trend strength), dollar volume (liquidity), funding fee windows, session/weekend restrictions, and spot-long-only settings.
- Signals & entries: Based on price position relative to EMA and EMA trends, combined with breaking Donchian channel extremes (with ATR ratio confirmation), plus single-position rules and post-exit cooldowns.
- Position sizing: Calculate positions by fixed risk percentage; initial stop-loss is ATR-based, complying with exchange min/max lot requirements.
- Exits & risk management: Include initial stop-loss, trailing stop (tightens only), break-even rule (stop moves to entry when target floating profit is hit), time-based exit, and post-exit cooldowns.
- Pyramiding: Add positions only when profitable with favorable momentum, requiring ATR-based spacing; add size is a fraction of the base position, with layers sharing stop logic but having unique order IDs.
Charts display EMA, Donchian channels, current stop lines, and highlight low ADX, avoidable funding windows, and low-liquidity periods.
Recommend starting with 4H or 1D timeframes, with typical parameters varying by cycle. Liquidity settings differ by token; perpetuals should enable funding window filters, while spot requires "long-only" and matching fees. The strategy performs well in trends with quick stop-losses but faces whipsaws in ranges (filters mitigate but don’t eliminate noise). Share your symbol and timeframe for tailored parameters.
Deadband Hysteresis Filter [BackQuant]Deadband Hysteresis Filter
What this is
This tool builds a “debounced” price baseline that ignores small fluctuations and only reacts when price meaningfully departs from its recent path. It uses a deadband to define how much deviation matters and a hysteresis scheme to avoid rapid flip-flops around the decision boundary. The baseline’s slope provides a simple trend cue, used to color candles and to trigger up and down alerts.
Why deadband and hysteresis help
They filter micro noise so the baseline does not react to every tiny tick.
They stabilize state changes. Hysteresis means the rule to start moving is stricter than the rule to keep holding, which reduces whipsaw.
They produce a stepped, readable path that advances during sustained moves and stays flat during chop.
How it works (conceptual)
At each bar the script maintains a running baseline dbhf and compares it to the input price p .
Compute a base threshold baseTau using the selected mode (ATR, Percent, Ticks, or Points).
Build an enter band tauEnter = baseTau × Enter Mult and an exit band tauExit = baseTau × Exit Mult where typically Exit Mult < Enter Mult .
Let diff = p − dbhf .
If diff > +tauEnter , raise the baseline by response × (diff − tauEnter) .
If diff < −tauEnter , lower the baseline by response × (diff + tauEnter) .
Otherwise, hold the prior value.
Trend state is derived from slope: dbhf > dbhf → up trend, dbhf < dbhf → down trend.
Inputs and what they control
Threshold mode
ATR — baseTau = ATR(atrLen) × atrMult . Adapts to volatility. Useful when regimes change.
Percent — baseTau = |price| × pctThresh% . Scale-free across symbols of different prices.
Ticks — baseTau = syminfo.mintick × tickThresh . Good for futures where tick size matters.
Points — baseTau = ptsThresh . Fixed distance in price units.
Band multipliers and response
Enter Mult — outer band. Price must travel at least this far from the baseline before an update occurs. Larger values reject more noise but increase lag.
Exit Mult — inner band for hysteresis. Keep this smaller than Enter Mult to create a hold zone that resists small re-entries.
Response — step size when outside the enter band. Higher response tracks faster; lower response is smoother.
UI settings
Show Filtered Price — plots the baseline on price.
Paint candles — colors bars by the filtered slope using your long/short colors.
How it can be used
Trend qualifier — take entries only in the direction of the baseline slope and skip trades against it.
Debounced crossovers — use the baseline as a stabilized surrogate for price in moving-average or channel crossover rules.
Trailing logic — trail stops a small distance beyond the baseline so small pullbacks do not eject the trade.
Session aware filtering — widen Enter Mult or switch to ATR mode for volatile sessions; tighten in quiet sessions.
Parameter interactions and tuning
Enter Mult vs Response — both govern sensitivity. If you see too many flips, increase Enter Mult or reduce Response. If turns feel late, do the opposite.
Exit Mult — widening the gap between Enter and Exit expands the hold zone and reduces oscillation around the threshold.
Mode choice — ATR adapts automatically; Percent keeps behavior consistent across instruments; Ticks or Points are useful when you think in fixed increments.
Timeframe coupling — on higher timeframes you can often lower Enter Mult or raise Response because raw noise is already reduced.
Concrete starter recipes
General purpose — ATR mode, atrLen=14 , atrMult=1.0–1.5 , Enter=1.0 , Exit=0.5 , Response=0.20 . Balanced noise rejection and lag.
Choppy range filter — ATR mode, increase atrMult to 2.0, keep Response≈0.15 . Stronger suppression of micro-moves.
Fast intraday — Percent mode, pctThresh=0.1–0.3 , Enter=1.0 , Exit=0.4–0.6 , Response=0.30–0.40 . Quicker turns for scalping.
Futures ticks — Ticks mode, set tickThresh to a few spreads beyond typical noise; start with Enter=1.0 , Exit=0.5 , Response=0.25 .
Strengths
Clear, explainable logic with an explicit noise budget.
Multiple threshold modes so the same tool fits equities, futures, and crypto.
Built-in hysteresis that reduces flip-flop near the boundary.
Slope-based coloring and alerts that make state changes obvious in real time.
Limitations and notes
All filters add lag. Larger thresholds and smaller response trade faster reaction for fewer false turns.
Fixed Points or Ticks can under- or over-filter when volatility regime shifts. ATR adapts, but will also expand bands during spikes.
On extremely choppy symbols, even a well tuned band will step frequently. Widen Enter Mult or reduce Response if needed.
This is a chart study. It does not include commissions, slippage, funding, or gap risks.
Alerts
DBHF Up Slope — baseline turns from down to up on the latest bar.
DBHF Down Slope — baseline turns from up to down on the latest bar.
Implementation details worth knowing
Initialization sets the baseline to the first observed price to avoid a cold-start jump.
Slope is evaluated bar-to-bar. The up and down alerts check for a change of slope rather than raw price crossings.
Candle colors and the baseline plot share the same long/short palette with transparency applied to the line.
Practical workflow
Pick a mode that matches how you think about distance. ATR for volatility aware, Percent for scale-free, Ticks or Points for fixed increments.
Tune Enter Mult until the number of flips feels appropriate for your timeframe.
Set Exit Mult clearly below Enter Mult to create a real hold zone.
Adjust Response last to control “how fast” the baseline chases price once it decides to move.
Final thoughts
Deadband plus hysteresis gives you a principled way to “only care when it matters.” With a sensible threshold and response, the filter yields a stable, low-chop trend cue you can use directly for bias or plug into your own entries, exits, and risk rules.
VWAP Price ChannelVWAP Price Channel cuts the crust off of a traditional price channel (Donchian Channel) by anchoring VWAPs at the highs and lows. By doing this, the flat levels, characteristic of traditional Donchian Channels, are no more!
Author's Note: This indicator is formed with no inherent use, and serves solely as a thought experiment.
> Concept
I would be hesitant to call this a "predictive" indicator, however the behavior of it would suggest it could be considered at least partially predictive
Essentially, the Anchored VWAPs creates something from otherwise nothing.
While the DC upper or lower values are staying flat, the VWAPs improvise based on price and volume to project a level that may be a better representation of where future highs or lows may settle.
Visually, this looks like we have cut off the corners of the Donchian Channel.
Note: Notice how we are calculating values before the corners are realized.
> Implementation
While this is only a concept indicator, The specific application I've gone with for this, is a sort of supertrend-ish display (A Trend Flipping Trailing Stop Loss).
The script uses basic logic to create a trend direction, and then displays the Anchored VWAPs as a form of trailing stop loss.
While "In Trend", the script fills in the area between the VWAP and Price in the direction of trend.
When new highs or lows are made while in trend, the opposite VWAP will start to generate at the new highs or lows. These happen on every new high or low, so they are not indicating the trend shift, but could be interpreted as breakout levels for the current trend direction in order for continuation.
Note: All values are drawn live, but when using higher timeframes, there is a natural calculation discrepancy when using live data vs. historical.
> Technicals
In this script, I'm simply detecting new highs or lows from the DC and using those as the anchor frequency on the built-in VWAP function.
So each time a new high or low is made based on DC, the VWAP function re-anchors to the high or low of the candle.
Past that, I have implemented some logic in order to account for a common occurrence I faced during development.
Frequently, the price would outpace the anchored VWAP, so we would end up with the VWAP being further from price than the actual DC upper or lower.
Due to this, what I have ended up with was a third value which, rather than switching between raw VWAP values and DC values, it adjusts the value based on the change in the VWAP value.
This can be simply thought of as a "Start + Change" type of setup.
By doing this, I can use the change values from the actual anchored VWAP, and under normal conditions, this will also be the true VWAP value.
However, situationally, I am able to update the start value which we're applying the VWAP change to.
In other words, when these situations happen, the VWAP change is added to the new (closer to price) DC value.
The specific trend logic being used is nothing fancy at all, we are simply checking if a new high or low is created and setting the trend in that direction.
This is in line with some traditional DC Strategies.
To those who made it here,
Just remember:
The chart may be ugly, but it's the fastest analysis of the data you can get.
Nicer displays often come at the hidden cost of latency.
You have to shoot your shot to make it.

Smart Impulse Exhaustion Finder (ATR + ADX Filter)📌 Purpose
This indicator detects potential exhaustion of strong bullish or bearish impulses at fresh swing highs/lows by combining multiple price action and volatility-based filters.
🧠 How It Works
A signal is triggered only when all core conditions are satisfied:
1. Swing High/Low Detection
Current high (or low) must be the highest (or lowest) over the last Extremum Lookback bars (default: 50).
This ensures the move is significant relative to recent price action.
2. Impulse Confirmation
Price must extend by at least 1 × ATR from the previous swing point.
This filters out minor fluctuations.
3. Exhaustion Conditions (at least 2 out of 3 must be met)
RSI Extreme: RSI > Overbought Level (default: 80) for bearish signals, RSI < Oversold Level (default: 20) for bullish signals.
Volume Spike: Volume > SMA(Volume, Volume SMA Length) × Volume Spike Multiplier.
Candle Wick Rejection: Upper wick ≥ Wick Threshold % for bearish setups, Lower wick ≥ Wick Threshold % for bullish setups.
4. Trend Filter
ADX > ADX Threshold ensures the market is trending and filters out sideways conditions.
5. Candle Body Filter
Candle body must be ≥ Body Size ATR Factor × ATR.
This avoids weak signals from small candles or doji formations.
📈 How to Use
Bearish Signal:
Appears at fresh swing highs with exhaustion conditions met. Useful for tightening stops, taking partial profits, or counter-trend shorts.
Bullish Signal:
Appears at fresh swing lows with exhaustion conditions met. Useful for trailing stops, profit-taking, or counter-trend longs.
Recommended Timeframes: Works best on 1h, 4h, and Daily charts.
Markets: Crypto, Forex, Stocks — wherever volatility and trends are present.
⚙️ Inputs
RSI Length / Overbought / Oversold
Volume SMA Length & Volume Spike Multiplier

Price Exhaustion Envelope [BackQuant]Price Exhaustion Envelope
Visual preview of the bands:
What it is
The Price Exhaustion Envelope (PEE) is a multi‑factor overextension detector wrapped inside a dynamic envelope framework. It measures how “tired” a move is by blending price stretch, volume surges, momentum and acceleration, plus optional RSI divergence. The result is a composite exhaustion score that drives both on‑chart signals and the adaptive width of three optional envelope bands around a smoothed baseline. When the score spikes above or below your chosen threshold, the script can flag exhaustion, paint candles, tint the background and fire alerts.
How it works under the hood
Exhaustion score
Price component: distance of close from its mean in standard deviation units.
Volume component: normalized volume pressure that highlights unusual participation.
Momentum component: rate of change and acceleration of price, scaled by their own volatility.
RSI divergence (optional): bullish and bearish divergences gently push the score lower or higher.
Mode control: choose Price, Volume, Momentum or Composite. Composite averages the main pieces for a balanced view.
Energy scale (0 to 100)
The composite score is pushed through a logistic transform to create an “energy” value. High energy (above 70 to 80) signals a move that may be running hot, while very low energy (below 20 to 30) points to exhaustion on the downside.
Envelope engine
Baseline: EMA of price over the main lookback length.
Width: base width is standard deviation times a multiplier.
Type selector:
• Static keeps the width fixed.
• Dynamic expands width in proportion to the absolute exhaustion score.
• Adaptive links width to the energy reading so bands breathe with market “heat.”
Smoothing: a short EMA on the width reduces jitter and keeps bands pleasant to trade around.
Band architecture
You can toggle up to three symmetric bands on each side of the baseline. They default to 1.0, 1.6 and 2.2 multiples of the smoothed width. Soft transparent fills create a layered thermograph of extension. The outermost band often maps to true blow‑off extremes.
On‑chart elements
Baseline line that flips color in real time depending on where price sits.
Up to three upper and lower bands with progressive opacity.
Triangle markers at fresh exhaustion triggers.
Tiny warning glyphs at extreme upper or lower breaches.
Optional bar coloring to visually tag exhausted candles.
Background halo when energy > 80 or < 20 for instant context.
A compact info table showing State, Score, Energy, Momentum score and where price sits inside the envelope (percent).
How to use it in trading
Mean reversion plays
When price pierces the outer band and an exhaustion marker prints, look for reversal candles or lower‑timeframe confirmation to fade the move back toward the baseline.
For conservative entries, wait for the composite score to roll back under the threshold or for energy to drop from extreme to neutral.
Set stops just beyond the extreme levels (use extreme_upper and extreme_lower as natural invalidation points). Targets can be the baseline or the opposite inner band.
Trend continuation with smart pullbacks
In strong trends, the first tag of Band 1 or Band 2 against the dominant direction often offers low‑risk continuation entries. Use energy readings: if energy is low on a pullback during an uptrend, a bounce is more likely.
Combine with RSI divergence: hidden bullish divergence near a lower band in an uptrend can be a powerful confirmation.
Breakout filtering
A breakout that occurs while the composite score is still moderate (not exhausted) has a higher chance of follow‑through. Skip signals when energy is already above 80 and price is punching the outer band, as the move may be late.
Watch env_position (Envelope %) in the table. Breakouts near 40 to 60 percent of the envelope are “healthy,” while those at 95 percent are stretched.
Scaling out and risk control
Use exhaustion alerts to trim positions into strength or weakness.
Trail stops just outside Band 2 or Band 3 to stay in trends while letting the envelope expand in volatile phases.
Multi‑timeframe confluence
Run the script on a higher timeframe to locate exhaustion context, then drill down to a lower timeframe for entries.
Opposite signals across timeframes (daily exhaustion vs. 5‑minute breakout) warn you to reduce size or tighten management.
Key inputs to experiment with
Lookback Period: larger values smooth the score and envelope, ideal for swing trading. Shorter values make it reactive for scalps.
Exhaustion Threshold: raise above 2.0 in choppy assets to cut noise, drop to 1.5 for smooth FX pairs.
Envelope Type: Dynamic is great for crypto spikes, Adaptive shines in stocks where volume and volatility wave together.
RSI Divergence: turn off if you prefer a pure price/volume model or if divergence floods the score in your asset.
Alert set included
Fresh upper exhaustion
Fresh lower exhaustion
Extreme upper breach
Extreme lower breach
RSI bearish divergence
RSI bullish divergence
Hook these to TradingView notifications so you get pinged the moment a move hits exhaustion.
Best practices
Always pair exhaustion signals with structure. Support and resistance, liquidity pools and session opens matter.
Avoid blindly shorting every upper signal in a roaring bull market. Let the envelope type help you filter.
Use the table to sanity‑check: a very high score but mid‑range env_position means the band may still be wide enough to absorb more movement.
Backtest threshold combinations on your instrument. Different tickers carry different volatility fingerprints.
Final note
Price Exhaustion Envelope is a flexible framework, not a turnkey system. It excels as a context layer that tells you when the crowd is pressing too hard or when a move still has fuel. Combine it with sound execution tactics, risk limits and market awareness. Trade safe and let the envelope breathe with the market.
