RPD Machine Learning: Self-Adaptive Multi-Armed Bandit Trading System
RPD Machine Learning is an advanced algorithmic trading system that implements genuine machine learning through contextual multi-armed bandits, reinforcement learning, and online adaptation. Unlike traditional indicators that use fixed rules, RPD learns from every trade outcome , automatically discovers which strategies work in current market conditions, and continuously adapts without manual intervention .
Core Innovation: The system deploys six distinct trading policies (ranging from aggressive trend-following to conservative range-bound strategies) and uses LinUCB contextual bandit algorithms with Random Fourier Features to learn which policy performs best in each market regime. After the initial learning phase (50-100 trades), the system achieves autonomous adaptation , automatically shifting between policies as market conditions evolve.
Target Users: Quantitative traders, algorithmic trading developers, systematic traders, and data-driven investors who want a system that adapts over time . Suitable for stocks, futures, forex, and cryptocurrency on any liquid instrument with >100k daily volume.
The Problem This System Solves
Traditional Technical Analysis Limitations
Most trading systems suffer from three fundamental challenges :
Fixed Parameters: Static settings (like "buy when RSI < 30") work well in backtests but may struggle when markets change character. What worked in low-volatility environments may not work in high-volatility regimes.
Strategy Degradation: Manual optimization (curve-fitting) produces systems that perform well on historical data but may underperform in live trading. The system never adapts to new market conditions.
Cognitive Overload: Running multiple strategies simultaneously forces traders to manually decide which one to trust. This leads to hesitation, late entries, and inconsistent execution.
How RPD Machine Learning Addresses These Challenges
Automated Strategy Selection: Instead of requiring you to choose between trend-following and mean-reversion strategies, RPD runs all six policies simultaneously and uses machine learning to automatically select the best one for current conditions. The decision happens algorithmically, removing human hesitation.
Continuous Learning: After every trade, the system updates its understanding of which policies are working. If the market shifts from trending to ranging, RPD automatically detects this through changing performance patterns and adjusts selection accordingly.
Context-Aware Decisions: Unlike simple voting systems that treat all conditions equally, RPD analyzes market context (ADX regime, entropy levels, volatility state, volume patterns, time of day, historical performance) and learns which combinations of context features correlate with policy success.
Machine Learning Architecture: What Makes This "Real" ML
Component 1: Contextual Multi-Armed Bandits (LinUCB)
What Is a Multi-Armed Bandit Problem?
Imagine facing six slot machines, each with unknown payout rates. The exploration-exploitation dilemma asks: Should you keep pulling the machine that's worked well (exploitation) or try others that might be better (exploration)? RPD solves this for trading policies.
Academic Foundation:
RPD implements Linear Upper Confidence Bound (LinUCB) from the research paper "A Contextual-Bandit Approach to Personalized News Article Recommendation" (Li et al., 2010, WWW Conference). This algorithm is used in content recommendation and ad placement systems.
How It Works:
Each policy (AggressiveTrend, ConservativeRange, VolatilityBreakout, etc.) is treated as an "arm." The system maintains:
Reward History: Tracks wins/losses for each policy
Contextual Features: Current market state (8-10 features including ADX, entropy, volatility, volume)
Uncertainty Estimates: Confidence in each policy's performance
UCB Formula: predicted_reward + α × uncertainty
The system selects the policy with highest UCB score , balancing proven performance (predicted_reward) with potential for discovery (uncertainty bonus). Initially, all policies have high uncertainty, so the system explores broadly. After 50-100 trades, uncertainty decreases, and the system focuses on known-performing policies.
Why This Matters:
Traditional systems pick strategies based on historical backtests or user preference. RPD learns from actual outcomes in your specific market, on your timeframe, with your execution characteristics.
Component 2: Random Fourier Features (RFF)
The Non-Linearity Challenge:
Market relationships are often non-linear. High ADX may indicate favorable conditions when volatility is normal, but unfavorable when volatility spikes. Simple linear models struggle to capture these interactions.
Academic Foundation:
RPD implements Random Fourier Features from "Random Features for Large-Scale Kernel Machines" (Rahimi & Recht, 2007, NIPS). This technique approximates kernel methods (like Support Vector Machines) while maintaining computational efficiency for real-time trading.
How It Works:
The system transforms base features (ADX, entropy, volatility, etc.) into a higher-dimensional space using random projections and cosine transformations:
Input: 8 base features
Projection: Through random Gaussian weights
Transformation: cos(W×features + b)
Output: 16 RFF dimensions
This allows the bandit to learn non-linear relationships between market context and policy success. For example: "AggressiveTrend performs well when ADX >25 AND entropy <0.6 AND hour >9" becomes naturally encoded in the RFF space.
Why This Matters:
Without RFF, the system could only learn "this policy has X% historical performance." With RFF, it learns "this policy performs differently in these specific contexts" - enabling more nuanced selection.
Component 3: Reinforcement Learning Stack
Beyond bandits, RPD implements a complete RL framework :
Q-Learning: Value-based RL that learns state-action values. Maps 54 discrete market states (trend×volatility×RSI×volume combinations) to 5 actions (4 policies + no-trade). Updates via Bellman equation after each trade. Converges toward optimal policy after 100-200 trades.
TD(λ) with Eligibility Traces: Extension of Q-Learning that propagates credit backwards through time . When a trade produces an outcome, TD(λ) updates not just the final state-action but all states visited during the trade, weighted by eligibility decay (λ=0.90). This accelerates learning from multi-bar trades.
Policy Gradient (REINFORCE): Learns a stochastic policy directly from 12 continuous market features without discretization. Uses gradient ascent to increase probability of actions that led to positive outcomes. Includes baseline (average reward) for variance reduction.
Meta-Learning: The system learns how to learn by adapting its own learning rates based on feature stability and correlation with outcomes. If a feature (like volume ratio) consistently correlates with success, its learning rate increases. If unstable, rate decreases.
Why This Matters:
Q-Learning provides fast discrete decisions. Policy Gradient handles continuous features. TD(λ) accelerates learning. Meta-learning optimizes the optimization. Together, they create a robust, multi-approach learning system that adapts more quickly than any single algorithm.
Component 4: Policy Momentum Tracking (v2 Feature)
The Recency Challenge:
Standard bandits treat all historical data equally. If a policy performed well historically but struggles in current conditions due to regime shift, the system may be slow to adapt because historical success outweighs recent underperformance.
RPD's Solution:
Each policy maintains a ring buffer of the last 10 outcomes. The system calculates:
Momentum: recent_win_rate - global_win_rate (range: -1 to +1)
Confidence: consistency of recent results (1 - variance)
Policies with positive momentum (recent outperformance) get an exploration bonus. Policies with negative momentum and high confidence (consistent recent underperformance) receive a selection penalty.
Effect: When markets shift, the system detects the shift more quickly through momentum tracking, enabling faster adaptation than standard bandits.
Signal Generation: The Core Algorithm
Multi-Timeframe Fractal Detection
RPD identifies reversal points using three complementary methods :
1. Quantum State Analysis:
Divides price range into discrete states (default: 6 levels)
Peak signals require price in top states (≥ state 5)
Valley signals require price in bottom states (≤ state 1)
Prevents mid-range signals that may struggle in strong trends
2. Fractal Geometry:
Identifies swing highs/lows using configurable fractal strength
Confirms local extremum with neighboring bars
Validates reversal only if price crosses prior extreme
3. Multi-Timeframe Confirmation:
Analyzes higher timeframe (4× default) for alignment
MTF confirmation adds probability bonus
Designed to reduce false signals while preserving valid setups
Probability Scoring System
Each signal receives a dynamic probability score (40-99%) based on:
Base Components:
Trend Strength: EMA(velocity) / ATR × 30 points
Entropy Quality: (1 - entropy) × 10 points
Starting baseline: 40 points
Enhancement Bonuses:
Divergence Detection: +20 points (price/momentum divergence)
RSI Extremes: +8 points (RSI >65 for peaks, <40 for valleys)
Volume Confirmation: +5 points (volume >1.2× average)
Adaptive Momentum: +10 points (strong directional velocity)
MTF Alignment: +12 points (higher timeframe confirms)
Range Factor: (high-low)/ATR × 3 - 1.5 points (volatility adjustment)
Regime Bonus: +8 points (trending ADX >25 with directional agreement)
Penalties:
High Entropy: -5 points (entropy >0.85, chaotic price action)
Consolidation Regime: -10 points (ADX <20, no directional conviction)
Final Score: Clamped to 40-99% range, classified as ELITE (>85%), STRONG (75-85%), GOOD (65-75%), or FAIR (<65%)
Entropy-Based Quality Filter
What Is Entropy?
Entropy measures randomness in price changes . Low entropy indicates orderly, directional moves. High entropy indicates chaotic, unpredictable conditions.
Calculation:
Count up/down price changes over adaptive period
Calculate probability: p = ups / total_changes
Shannon entropy: -p×log(p) - (1-p)×log(1-p)
Normalized to 0-1 range
Application:
Entropy <0.5: Highly ordered (ELITE signals possible)
Entropy 0.5-0.75: Mixed (GOOD signals)
Entropy >0.85: Chaotic (signals blocked or heavily penalized)
Why This Matters:
Prevents trading during choppy, news-driven conditions where technical patterns may be less reliable. Automatically raises quality bar when market is unpredictable.
Regime Detection & Market Microstructure - ADX-Based Regime Classification
RPD uses Wilder's Average Directional Index to classify markets:
Bull Trend: ADX >25, +DI > -DI (directional conviction bullish)
Bear Trend: ADX >25, +DI < -DI (directional conviction bearish)
Consolidation: ADX <20 (no directional conviction)
Transitional: ADX 20-25 (forming direction, ambiguous)
Filter Logic:
Blocks all signals during Transitional regime (avoids trading during uncertain conditions)
Blocks Consolidation signals unless ADX ≥ Min Trend Strength
Adds probability bonus during strong trends (ADX >30)
Effect: Designed to reduce signal frequency while focusing on higher-quality setups.
Divergence Detection
Bearish Divergence:
Price makes higher high
Velocity (price momentum) makes lower high
Indicates weakening upward pressure → SHORT signal quality boost
Bullish Divergence:
Price makes lower low
Velocity makes higher low
Indicates weakening downward pressure → LONG signal quality boost
Bonus: Adds probability points and additional acceleration factor. Divergence signals have historically shown higher success rates in testing.
Hierarchical Policy System - The Six Trading Policies
1. AggressiveTrend (Policy 0):
Probability Threshold: 60% (trades more frequently)
Entropy Threshold: 0.70 (tolerates moderate chaos)
Stop Multiplier: 2.5× ATR (wider stops for trends)
Target Multiplier: 5.0R (larger targets)
Entry Mode: Pyramid (scales into winners)
Best For: Strong trending markets, breakouts, momentum continuation
2. ConservativeRange (Policy 1):
Probability Threshold: 75% (more selective)
Entropy Threshold: 0.60 (requires order)
Stop Multiplier: 1.8× ATR (tighter stops)
Target Multiplier: 3.0R (modest targets)
Entry Mode: Single (one-shot entries)
Best For: Range-bound markets, low volatility, mean reversion
3. VolatilityBreakout (Policy 2):
Probability Threshold: 65% (moderate)
Entropy Threshold: 0.80 (accepts high entropy)
Stop Multiplier: 3.0× ATR (wider stops)
Target Multiplier: 6.0R (larger targets)
Entry Mode: Tiered (splits entry)
Best For: Compression breakouts, post-consolidation moves, gap opens
4. EntropyScalp (Policy 3):
Probability Threshold: 80% (very selective)
Entropy Threshold: 0.40 (requires extreme order)
Stop Multiplier: 1.5× ATR (tightest stops)
Target Multiplier: 2.5R (quick targets)
Entry Mode: Single
Best For: Low-volatility grinding moves, tight ranges, highly predictable patterns
5. DivergenceHunter (Policy 4):
Probability Threshold: 70% (quality-focused)
Entropy Threshold: 0.65 (balanced)
Stop Multiplier: 2.2× ATR (moderate stops)
Target Multiplier: 4.5R (balanced targets)
Entry Mode: Tiered
Best For: Divergence-confirmed reversals, exhaustion moves, trend climax
6. AdaptiveBlend (Policy 5):
Probability Threshold: 68% (balanced)
Entropy Threshold: 0.75 (balanced)
Stop Multiplier: 2.0× ATR (standard)
Target Multiplier: 4.0R (standard)
Entry Mode: Single
Best For: Mixed conditions, general trading, fallback when no clear regime
Policy Clustering (Advanced/Extreme Modes)
Policies are grouped into three clusters based on regime affinity:
Cluster 1 (Trending): AggressiveTrend, DivergenceHunter
High regime affinity (0.8): Performs well when ADX >25
Moderate vol affinity (0.6): Works in various volatility
Cluster 2 (Ranging): ConservativeRange, AdaptiveBlend
Low regime affinity (0.3): Better suited for ADX <20
Low vol affinity (0.4): Optimized for calm markets
Cluster 3 (Breakout): VolatilityBreakout
Moderate regime affinity (0.6): Works in multiple regimes
High vol affinity (0.9): Requires high volatility for optimal characteristics
Hierarchical Selection Process:
Calculate cluster scores based on current regime and volatility
Select best-matching cluster
Run UCB selection within chosen cluster
Apply momentum boost/penalty
This two-stage process reduces learning time - instead of choosing among 6 policies from scratch, system first narrows to 1-2 policies per cluster, then optimizes within cluster.
Risk Management & Position Sizing
Dynamic Kelly Criterion Sizing (Optional)
Traditional Fixed Sizing Challenge:
Using the same position size for all signal probabilities may be suboptimal. Higher-probability signals could justify larger positions, lower-probability signals smaller positions.
Kelly Formula:
f = (p × b - q) / b
Where:
p = win probability (from signal score)
q = loss probability (1 - p)
b = win/loss ratio (average_win / average_loss)
f = fraction of capital to risk
RPD Implementation:
Uses Fractional Kelly (1/4 Kelly default) for safety. Full Kelly is theoretically optimal but can recommend large position sizes. Fractional Kelly reduces volatility while maintaining adaptive sizing benefits.
Enhancements:
Probability Bonus: Normalize(prob, 65, 95) × 0.5 multiplier
Divergence Bonus: Additional sizing on divergence signals
Regime Bonus: Additional sizing during strong trends (ADX >30)
Momentum Adjustment: Hot policies receive sizing boost, cold policies receive reduction
Safety Rails:
Minimum: 1 contract (floor)
Maximum: User-defined cap (default 10 contracts)
Portfolio Heat: Max total risk across all positions (default 4% equity)
Multi-Mode Stop Loss System
ATR Mode (Default):
Stop = entry ± (ATR × base_mult × policy_mult)
Consistent risk sizing
Ignores market structure
Best for: Futures, forex, algorithmic trading
Structural Mode:
Finds swing low (long) or high (short) over last 20 bars
Identifies fractal pivots within lookback
Places stop below/above structure + buffer (0.1× ATR)
Best for: Stocks, instruments that respect structure
Hybrid Mode (Intelligent):
Attempts structural stop first
Falls back to ATR if:
Structural level is invalid (beyond entry)
Structural stop >2× ATR away (too wide)
Best for: Mixed instruments, adaptability
Dynamic Adjustments:
Breakeven: Move stop to entry + 1 tick after 1.0R profit
Trailing: Trail stop 0.8R behind price after 1.5R profit
Timeout: Force close after 30 bars (optional)
Tiered Entry System
Challenge: Equal sizing on all signals may not optimize capital allocation relative to signal quality.
Solution:
Tier 1 (40% of size): Enters immediately on all signals
Tier 2 (60% of size): Enters only if probability ≥ Tier 2 trigger (default 75%)
Example:
Calculated optimal size: 10 contracts
Signal probability: 72%
Tier 2 trigger: 75%
Result: Enter 4 contracts only (Tier 1)
Same signal at 80% probability
Result: Enter 10 contracts (4 Tier 1 + 6 Tier 2)
Effect: Automatically scales size to signal quality, optimizing capital allocation.
Performance Optimization & Learning Curve
Warmup Phase (First 50 Trades)
Purpose: Ensure all policies get tested before system focuses on preferred strategies.
Modifications During Warmup:
Probability thresholds reduced 20% (65% becomes 52%)
Entropy thresholds increased 20% (more permissive)
Exploration rate stays high (30%)
Confidence width (α) doubled (more exploration)
Why This Matters:
Without warmup, system might commit to early-performing policy without testing alternatives. Warmup forces thorough exploration before focusing on best-performing strategies.
Curriculum Learning
Phase 1 (Trades 1-50): Exploration
Warmup active
All policies tested
High exploration (30%)
Learning fundamental patterns
Phase 2 (Trades 50-100): Refinement
Warmup ended, thresholds normalize
Exploration decaying (30% → 15%)
Policy preferences emerging
Meta-learning optimizing
Phase 3 (Trades 100-200): Specialization
Exploration low (15% → 8%)
Clear policy preferences established
Momentum tracking fully active
System focusing on learned patterns
Phase 4 (Trades 200+): Maturity
Exploration minimal (8% → 5%)
Regime-policy relationships learned
Auto-adaptation to market shifts
Stable performance expected
Convergence Indicators
System is learning well when:
Policy switch rate decreasing over time (initially ~50%, should drop to <20%)
Exploration rate decaying smoothly (30% → 5%)
One or two policies emerge with >50% selection frequency
Performance metrics stabilizing over time
Consistent behavior in similar market conditions
System may need adjustment when:
Policy switch rate >40% after 100 trades (excessive exploration)
Exploration rate not decaying (parameter issue)
All policies showing similar selection (not differentiating)
Performance declining despite relaxed thresholds (underlying signal issue)
Highly erratic behavior after learning phase
Advanced Features
Attention Mechanism (Extreme Mode)
Challenge: Not all features are equally important. Trading hour might matter more than price-volume correlation, but standard approaches treat them equally.
Solution:
Each RFF dimension has an importance weight . After each trade:
Calculate correlation: sign(feature - 0.5) × sign(reward)
Update importance: importance += correlation × 0.01
Clamp to range
Effect: Important features get amplified in RFF transformation, less important features get suppressed. System learns which features correlate with successful outcomes.
Temporal Context (Extreme Mode)
Challenge: Current market state alone may be incomplete. Historical context (was volatility rising or falling?) provides additional information.
Solution:
Includes 3-period historical context with exponential decay (0.85):
Current features (weight 1.0)
1 bar ago (weight 0.85)
2 bars ago (weight 0.72)
Effect: Captures momentum and acceleration of market features. System learns patterns like "rising volatility with falling entropy" that may precede significant moves.
Transfer Learning via Episodic Memory
Short-Term Memory (STM):
Last 20 trades
Fast adaptation to immediate regime
High learning rate
Long-Term Memory (LTM):
Condensed historical patterns
Preserved knowledge from past regimes
Low learning rate
Transfer Mechanism:
When STM fills (20 trades), patterns consolidated into LTM . When similar regime recurs later, LTM provides faster adaptation than starting from scratch.

Limitations & Disclaimers
Statistical Limitations
Learning Sample Size: System requires minimum 50-100 trades for basic convergence, 200+ trades for robust learning. Early performance (first 50 trades) may not reflect mature system behavior.
Non-Stationarity Risk: Markets change over time. A system trained on one market regime may need time to adapt when conditions shift (typically 30-50 trades for adjustment).
Overfitting Possibility: With 16-32 RFF dimensions and 6 policies, system has substantial parameter space. Small sample sizes (<200 trades) increase overfitting risk. Mitigated by regularization (λ) and fractional Kelly sizing.
Technical Limitations
Computational Complexity: Extreme mode with 32 RFF dimensions, 6 policies, and full RL stack requires significant computation. May perform slowly on lower-end systems or with many other indicators loaded.
Pine Script Constraints:
No true matrix inversion (uses diagonal approximation for LinUCB)
No cryptographic RNG (uses market data as entropy)
No proper random number generation for RFF (uses deterministic pseudo-random)
These approximations reduce mathematical precision compared to academic implementations but remain functional for trading applications.
Data Requirements: Needs clean OHLCV data. Missing bars, gaps, or low liquidity (<100k daily volume) can degrade signal quality.
Forward-Looking Bias Disclaimer
Reward Calculation Uses Future Data: The RL system evaluates trades using an 8-bar forward-looking window. This means when a position enters at bar 100, the reward calculation considers price movement through bar 108.
Why This is Disclosed:
Entry signals do NOT look ahead - decisions use only data up to entry bar
Forward data used for learning only, not signal generation
In live trading, system learns identically as bars unfold in real-time
Simulates natural learning process (outcomes are only known after trades complete)
Implication: Backtested metrics reflect this 8-bar evaluation window. Live performance may vary if:
- Positions held longer than 8 bars
- Slippage/commissions differ from backtest settings
- Market microstructure changes (wider spreads, different execution quality)
Risk Warnings
No Guarantee of Profit: All trading involves substantial risk of loss. Machine learning systems can fail if market structure fundamentally changes or during unprecedented events.
Maximum Drawdown: With 1.5% base risk and 4% max total risk, expect potential drawdowns. Historical drawdowns do not predict future drawdowns. Extreme market conditions can exceed expectations.
Black Swan Events: System has not been tested under: flash crashes, trading halts, circuit breakers, major geopolitical shocks, or other extreme events. Such events can exceed stop losses and cause significant losses.
Leverage Risk: Futures and forex involve leverage. Adverse moves combined with leverage can result in losses exceeding initial investment. Use appropriate position sizing for your risk tolerance.
System Failures: Code bugs, broker API failures, internet outages, or exchange issues can prevent proper execution. Always monitor automated systems and maintain appropriate safeguards.
Appropriate Use
This System Is:
✅ A machine learning framework for adaptive strategy selection
✅ A signal generation system with probabilistic scoring
✅ A risk management system with dynamic sizing
✅ A learning system designed to adapt over time
This System Is NOT:
❌ A price prediction system (does not forecast exact prices)
❌ A guarantee of profits (can and will experience losses)
❌ A replacement for due diligence (requires monitoring and understanding)
❌ Suitable for complete beginners (requires understanding of ML concepts, risk management, and trading fundamentals)
Recommended Use:
Paper trade for 100 signals before risking capital
Start with minimal position sizing (1-2 contracts) regardless of calculated size
Monitor learning progress via dashboard
Scale gradually over several months only after consistent results
Combine with fundamental analysis and broader market context
Set account-level risk limits (e.g., maximum drawdown threshold)
Never risk more than you can afford to lose
What Makes This System Different
RPD implements academically-derived machine learning algorithms rather than simple mathematical calculations or optimization:
✅ LinUCB Contextual Bandits - Algorithm from WWW 2010 conference (Li et al.)
✅ Random Fourier Features - Kernel approximation from NIPS 2007 (Rahimi & Recht)
✅ Q-Learning, TD(λ), REINFORCE - Standard RL algorithms from Sutton & Barto textbook
✅ Meta-Learning - Learning rate adaptation based on feature correlation
✅ Online Learning - Real-time updates from streaming data
✅ Hierarchical Policies - Two-stage selection with clustering
✅ Momentum Tracking - Recent performance analysis for faster adaptation
✅ Attention Mechanism - Feature importance weighting
✅ Transfer Learning - Episodic memory consolidation
Key Differentiators:
Actually learns from trade outcomes (not just parameter optimization)
Updates model parameters in real-time (true online learning)
Adapts to changing market regimes (not static rules)
Improves over time through reinforcement learning
Implements published ML algorithms with proper citations
Conclusion
RPD Machine Learning represents a different approach from traditional technical analysis to adaptive, self-learning systems . Instead of manually optimizing parameters (which can overfit to historical data), RPD learns behavior patterns from actual trading outcomes in your specific market.
The combination of contextual bandits, reinforcement learning, random fourier features, hierarchical policy selection, and momentum tracking creates a multi-algorithm learning system designed to handle non-stationary markets better than static approaches.
After the initial learning phase (50-100 trades), the system achieves autonomous adaptation - automatically discovering which strategies work in current conditions and shifting allocation without human intervention. This represents an approach where systems adapt over time rather than remaining static.
Use responsibly. Paper trade extensively. Scale gradually. Understand that past performance does not guarantee future results and all trading involves risk of loss.

High Accuracy Engulfing Strategy [PIPNEXUS]Title: EMA Engulfing Setup
Description:
This indicator focuses on identifying strong engulfing patterns that form around the EMA line, helping traders catch high-probability moves in line with market direction.
Concept Overview:
The idea is simple — when both the engulfing candle and the candle being engulfed have their bodies touching the EMA line, it often represents a key point of rejection or continuation. These areas can produce clean entries with strong momentum.
How to Use:
1. Wait for a valid engulfing formation near the EMA line.
Both the engulfing and the engulfed candles should have their bodies touching the EMA.
2. Enter in the direction of the engulfing candle once the pattern is confirmed.
3. For pinpoint entries, observe the market during session changes (especially in the first 3–5 minutes after a session opens).
4. For longer and more stable trades, look for the same pattern on 15-minute or 1-hour charts.
5. Always align your trades with the prevailing market structure and avoid counter-trend setups.
Note:
This indicator is designed for technical and educational use. It does not generate buy or sell signals automatically, nor does it guarantee performance. Use it alongside your own market analysis and proper risk management.
Vandan V2Vandan V2 is an automated trend-following strategy for NASDAQ E-mini Futures (NQ1!).
It uses multi-timeframe momentum and volatility filters to identify high-probability entries.
Includes dynamic risk management and trailing logic optimized for intraday trading.
Basic DCA Strategy by Wongsakon KhaisaengThe Core Principle and Philosophy Behind the Basic DCA Strategy
1. Introduction
The Basic DCA Strategy (Dollar-Cost Averaging) represents one of the most fundamental and enduring investment methodologies in the realm of systematic accumulation. The philosophy underpinning DCA is rooted not in speculation or prediction, but in disciplined participation. It assumes that the consistent act of investing a fixed amount of capital over time—regardless of short-term price volatility—can yield superior long-term outcomes through the natural smoothing effect of cost averaging.
This strategy, expressed through the Pine Script code above, formalizes the DCA concept into a fully systematic trading framework, enabling quantitative backtesting and objective evaluation of long-term accumulation efficiency.
2. Mechanism of Operation
At its technical core, the strategy executes a fixed-value buy order at every predefined interval within a specific accumulation period.
Each DCA event invests a constant “Investment Amount (USD)” irrespective of price fluctuations. When prices decline, this constant investment buys a larger quantity of the asset; when prices rise, it purchases fewer units. Over time, this behavior lowers the average cost basis of the accumulated position, effectively neutralizing short-term timing risks.
Mathematically, this is represented as:
Units Purchased = Investment Amount / Closing Price
Cost Basis = Total Invested USD / Total Units Acquired
Portfolio Value = Total Units Acquired × Current Price
The algorithm tracks cumulative investment, acquired units, and commissions dynamically, continuously recalculating key portfolio metrics such as total profit/loss (PnL), CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate), and maximum drawdown (peak-to-trough equity decline).
Furthermore, the script juxtaposes DCA results with a Buy & Hold benchmark, where the entire initial capital is invested at once. This comparison highlights the behavioral resilience and volatility resistance of the DCA method relative to market-timing strategies.
3. The Essence of DCA Philosophy
At its philosophical core, DCA is not a trading system, but a behavioral framework for rational capital deployment under uncertainty. It embodies the principle that time in the market often outweighs timing the market.
The DCA approach rejects the illusion of precision forecasting and embraces probabilistic humility—the recognition that even the most skilled investors cannot consistently predict short-term market fluctuations. Instead, it focuses on controlling what is controllable: the frequency, consistency, and size of investment actions.
This mindset reflects a broader principle of risk dispersion through temporal diversification. Rather than concentrating entry risk into a single price point (as in lump-sum investing), DCA spreads exposure across multiple time intervals, thereby converting volatility into opportunity.
In essence, volatility—often perceived as risk—is reframed as a mechanism for mean reversion advantage. The strategy thrives precisely because markets oscillate; each fluctuation provides a chance to accumulate at varied price levels, improving the weighted-average entry over time.
4. Long-Term Rationality Over Short-Term Emotion
DCA’s endurance stems from its ability to neutralize emotional biases inherent in human decision-making. Investors tend to overreact to market euphoria or panic—buying high out of greed and selling low out of fear. By automating purchases through predefined intervals, the DCA model enforces mechanical discipline, detaching decision-making from sentiment.
This transforms investing from an emotional endeavor into a systematic, algorithmic routine governed by rules rather than reactions. In doing so, DCA serves not only as a financial model but also as a psychological safeguard—aligning investor behavior with long-term compounding logic rather than short-term speculation.
5. Comparative Insight: DCA vs. Buy & Hold
While both DCA and Buy & Hold share a long-term investment horizon, they diverge in their treatment of entry timing. The Buy & Hold model assumes full deployment of capital at the beginning, maximizing exposure to growth but also to volatility. Conversely, DCA smooths the entry curve, trading off short-term returns for long-term stability and improved average entry price.
In environments characterized by volatility and cyclical corrections, DCA tends to outperform in terms of risk-adjusted returns, lower drawdowns, and improved investor adherence—since it reduces the psychological pain of entering at local peaks.
6. Conclusion
The Basic DCA Strategy exemplifies the synthesis of mathematical rigor and behavioral discipline. Its algorithmic construction in Pine Script transforms a classical investment philosophy into a quantifiable, testable, and transparent framework.
By automating fixed-amount purchases across time, the system operationalizes the central axiom of DCA: consistency over conviction. It is not concerned with predicting future prices but with ensuring persistent participation—trusting that the market’s upward bias and the power of compounding will reward patience more than precision.
Ultimately, DCA embodies the timeless principle that successful investing is less about forecasting markets, and more about designing behavior that can endure them.

It plots the IB lines, midpoint (colored based on close), and extension levels (+/–25% and 50%).
After the IB session ends, it looks for breakouts:
Long if price closes above IB high.
Short if price closes below IB low.
Each trade targets the 25% extension in the breakout direction, with an optional stop at the opposite IB level.
It limits the number of trades per day and displays info (trades, position, IB range, next target) in a table.
Supertrend [TradingConToto]Supertrend — ADX/DI + EMA Gap + Breakout (with Mobile UI)
What makes it original
Supertrend combines trend strength (ADX/DI), multi-timeframe bias (EMA63 and EMA 200D equivalent), a structural filter based on the distance between EMA2400 and EMA4800 expressed in ATR units, and a momentum confirmation through a previous high breakout.
This is not a random mashup — it’s a sequence of filters designed to reduce trades in ranging markets and prioritize mature trends:
Direction: +DI > -DI (trend led by buyers).
Strength: ADX > mean(ADX) (avoids weak, choppy phases).
Short-term bias: Close > EMA63.
Long-term bias: Close > EMA4800 ≈ EMA200 daily on H1.
Momentum: Close > High (immediate breakout).
Structure: (EMA2400 − EMA4800) > k·ATR (ensures separation in ATR units, filters out flat phases).
Entries & exits
Entry: when all six conditions are met and no open position exists.
Exit: if +DI < -DI or Close < EMA63.
Visuals: EMA63 is painted green while in position and red otherwise, with a supertrend-style band; “BUY” labels appear below the green band and “SELL” labels above the red band.
UI: includes a compact table (mobile-friendly) showing the state of each condition.
Default parameters used in this publication
Initial capital: 10,000
Position size: 10% of equity (≤10% per trade is considered sustainable).
Commission: 0.01% per side (adjust to your broker/market).
Slippage: 1 tick
Pyramiding: 0 (only one position at a time)
Adjust commission/slippage to match your market. For US equities, commissions are often per share; for spot crypto, 0.10–0.20% total is common. I publish with 0.01% per side as a conservative example to avoid overestimating results.
Recommended backtest dataset
Timeframe: H1
Multi-cycle window (e.g. 2015–today)
Symbols with high liquidity (e.g. NASDAQ-100 large caps, or BTC/ETH spot) to generate 100+ trades. Avoid cherry-picked short windows.
Why each filter matters
+DI > -DI + ADX > mean: reduce counter-trend trades and weak signals.
Close > EMA63 + Close > EMA4800: enforce trend alignment in short and long horizons.
Breakout High : requires immediate momentum, avoids early entries.
EMA gap in ATR units: blocks flat or compressed structures where EMA200D aligns with price.
Limitations
The breakout filter may skip healthy pullbacks; the design prioritizes continuation over perfect entry price.
No fixed trailing stop/TP; exits depend on trend degradation via DI/EMA63.
Results vary with real costs (commissions, slippage, funding). Adjust defaults to your broker.
How to use
Apply it on a clean chart (no other indicators when publishing).
Keep in mind the default parameters above; if you change them, mention it in your notes and use the same values in the Strategy Tester.
Ensure your dataset produces 100+ trades for statistical validity.
AI KNN-Dual SuperTrend MTF - by Trading Pine Lab🇬🇧
The AI KNN-Dual SuperTrend MTF is a next-generation trading strategy that merges two higher-timeframe SuperTrends with dual KNN (K-Nearest Neighbors) classifiers, an ADX/DMI filter, and a Pivot Percentile bias module. This layered architecture ensures stronger signal confirmation by requiring consensus across AI models, multi-timeframe SuperTrends, and statistical filters.
Entries occur only when both SuperTrends align with bullish or bearish KNN labels, while the ADX/DMI filter validates momentum. Exits are managed dynamically with adaptive trailing stops (ST ± ATR × factor) or when market conditions flip according to percentile bias.
All parameters are fully configurable:
-Trading direction filter: Long / Short / Both.
-KNN classifiers: neighbors (K), dataset size (N), smoothing lengths.
-Dual SuperTrend: higher timeframes, ATR length, ATR factor, baseline type.
-ADX/DMI filter: customizable length and timeframe.
-Pivot Percentile module: multi-scale statistical bias.
-Visualization: AI markers, ribbons, aura lines, and per-trend coloring.
Bull-Bear Power ZScore - by Trading Pine Lab🇬🇧
The Bull-Bear Power ZScore Strategy is an advanced trading framework that integrates Bull-Bear Power (BBP) with a statistical Z-Score model.
BBP measures the relative strength of buyers vs. sellers against an EMA baseline, while the Z-Score standardizes this relationship to detect statistically significant breakouts.
This dual-layer approach provides early trend detection while reducing noise from raw momentum signals.
Entries are triggered when the Z-Score crosses above or below its threshold (long above +T, short below –T). Exits occur when the Z-Score crosses back to zero, ensuring trades close when momentum fades.
A dynamic multi-level take-profit system is integrated, using ATR-based targets (TP1, TP2, TP3) that automatically adapt to **volume context** (high/medium/low) and **percentile analysis** (distribution of price and volume).
This ensures profit targets stretch in strong environments and tighten in weaker conditions, optimizing both risk and reward.
All parameters are fully configurable:
-Bull-Bear Power Settings: EMA length, Z-Score length, Z-Score threshold.
-Take Profit Settings: enable/disable TP system, ATR period, TP1–TP3 multipliers, TP1–TP3 position sizes.
-Volume Analysis: volume MA period, high/medium/low multipliers, adjustment factors.
-Percentile Analysis: percentile lookback period, high/medium/low thresholds, adjustment factors.
ETH/BTC/XRP Strategy - Powered by BCHETH/BTC/XRP Strategy — Cross-Asset Momentum-Based Strategy
Overview
This strategy aims to identify medium-term long trade opportunities on ETH/BTC/XRP 2 or 4 hour charts by leveraging cross-asset momentum signals from Bitcoin Cash (BCH) relative to Ethereum (ETH). It integrates volatility filters, volume validation, and momentum confirmations to improve trade timing and risk management.
Key Features and Logic
Cross-Asset Momentum Filter: Enters long trades when BCH outperforms ETH in the prior candle, supporting relative strength confirmation.
Volume Confirmation: BCH volume must exceed 135% of its 20-period average, validating market interest before entry signals.
Volatility Filter: ETH price near or below 110% of the lower Bollinger Band (20 periods, 2σ) indicates oversold conditions.
Momentum Indicators: ETH RSI below 70 ensures the asset is not overbought, coupled with BCH MACD line crossing above its signal line for bullish bias.
Risk Controls: Includes trailing stop losses and take profit targets to protect gains and limit drawdowns.
Timing Constraints: Controlled cooldown periods between trades help prevent overtrading and false signals.
Usage Recommendations
Optimized for 2 or 4hour ETH/BTC/XRP USDT candles; 5-minute data optionally used for finer entries and exits.
Suitable for traders seeking dynamic timing based on multi-asset interactions rather than blind holding.
Works as a complement within diversified or rotational strategies focusing on Ethereum exposure.
Performance Summary (Backtest Jan 2023 – Jul 2025) ; ETHUSDT 2hour basis.
Total trades: 65
Win rate: 61.5%
Profit factor: 5.1
Note: The sample size is limited; results should be interpreted with caution. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Important Notes
This script represents an original combination of cross-asset momentum with volatility and volume filters tailored to ETH and BCH interaction.
Source code is protected to safeguard unique implementation details while allowing free usage without restrictions.
Use appropriate risk management, and consider these signals as part of a broader trading analysis.
No guarantees on profitability; trading involves significant risk.
Lunar calendar day Crypto Trading StrategyLunar calendar day Crypto Trading Strategy
This strategy explores the potential impact of the lunar calendar on cryptocurrency price cycles.
It implements a simple but unconventional rule:
Buy on the 5th day of each lunar month
Sell on the 26th day of the lunar month
No trades between January 1 (solar) and Lunar New Year’s Day (holiday buffer period)
Research background
Several academic studies have investigated the influence of lunar cycles on financial markets. Their findings suggest:
Returns tend to be higher around the full moon compared to the new moon.
Periods between the full moon and the waning phase often show stronger average returns than the waxing phase.
This strategy combines those observations into a practical implementation by testing fixed entry (lunar day 5) and exit (lunar day 26) points, while excluding the transition period from solar New Year to Lunar New Year, effectively capturing mid-month lunar effects.
How it works
The script includes a custom lunar date calculation function, reconstructing lunar months and days for each year (2020–2026).
On lunar day 5, the strategy opens a long position with 100% of equity.
On lunar day 26, the strategy closes the position.
No trades are executed between Jan 1 and Lunar New Year’s Day.
All trades include:
Commission: 0.1%
Slippage: 3 ticks
Position sizing uses the entire equity (100%) for simplicity, but this is not recommended for live trading.
Why this is original
Unlike mashups of built-in indicators, this script:
Implements a full lunar calendar system inside Pine Script.
Translates academic findings on lunar effects into an applied backtest.
Adds a realistic trading filter (holiday gap) based on cultural/seasonal calendar rules.
Provides researchers and traders with a framework to explore non-traditional, time-based signals.
Notes
This is an experimental, research-oriented strategy, not financial advice.
Results are highly dependent on the chosen period (2020–2026).
Using 100% equity per trade is for simplification only and is not a viable money management practice.
The purpose is to investigate whether cyclical patterns linked to lunar time can provide any statistical edge in ETHUSDT.
Multi Channel GRID & DCA LTF [trade_lexx]Multi Channel GRID & DCA LTF
Usage Guide
Part 1: The concept and general possibilities of the "Multi Channel GRID & DCA LTF" strategy
Introduction
Welcome to the guide to "Multi Channel GRID & DCA LTF", a powerful and versatile automated trading strategy for the TradingView platform. This tool was developed for traders who are looking for flexibility, control and a high degree of adaptability to various market conditions.
The strategy is based on a hybrid approach that combines two popular and time-tested techniques.:
1. GRID (grid trading): The classic method of averaging a position is by placing a grid of limit orders.
2. DCA (Dollar Cost averaging): Smart position averaging based on signals from external indicators.
However, "Multi Channel GRID & DCA LTF" goes far beyond the simple combination of these two techniques. The strategy includes a number of unique and innovative features, such as cascading MultiGRID grids for dealing with extreme volatility, Channel Mode range trading mode for profiting from sideways movement, and Low Time Frame analysis (LTF) to achieve surgical accuracy in backtesting. Deep customization options for risk management, capital, take profits, and stop losses allow you to configure a strategy for almost any trading style, asset, and timeframe.
The basic idea: How does it work?
Let's take a detailed look at each of the key concepts embedded in the logic of the strategy.
1. GRID — Automatic placement of buy and sell orders at certain price intervals.
This is a fundamental mode of operation. Its main goal is to systematically improve the average entry price for a position if the market is going against you.
* The principle of operation: After opening the base (first) order (`BO`), the strategy automatically places a series of pending limit orders (here they are called "safety orders" or "SO") at certain price intervals. For a long position, orders are placed below the entry price, and for a short position, orders are placed higher.
* Target: When the price moves against an open position, it consistently hits and executes safety orders. Each such execution adds additional volume to the position at a more favorable price, thereby shifting the overall average entry price (`position_avg_price') closer to the current market price. This means that a much smaller corrective movement will be required to gain ground.
* Flexibility: You have full control over the geometry of the grid: the number of safety orders, the percentage distance between them (`SO Step`), and you can even set a coefficient that will increase this step for each subsequent order (`SO Multiplier`), creating an expanding grid.
2. DCA (Signal Averaging) — Smart Averaging
This mode adds an additional layer of analysis to the averaging process. Instead of just buying/selling at the set price levels, the strategy waits for a confirmation signal.
* Working principle: You can connect any external indicator (for example, RSI, CCI, or even your own complex signal system) to the strategy, which outputs numerical values. As standard, 1 is used for a long signal, and -1 is used for a short signal. The strategy will place the next averaging order only at the moment when it receives the appropriate signal.
* Goal: To average a position not just during a fall (or a rise for a short), but at the moments that your main trading system considers the most favorable for this. This allows you to avoid "catching falling knives" and enter only if there are good reasons.
3. Hybrid Mode (GRID+DCA) is the best of the previous two modes
This mode is designed for maximum filtering and control. It requires two conditions to be fulfilled simultaneously.
* Working principle: The safety order will be executed only if the price has reached the calculated grid level and a confirmation signal has been received from your external indicator. If a confirmation signal is received from an external indicator, the next calculated grid level activates the limit order.
* Goal: To create the most reliable averaging system that protects against premature entries and requires double confirmation (both by price and indicator) before increasing the position size.
4. MultiGRID — Adaptation to extreme volatility
This is one of the most powerful and unique features of a strategy designed to survive and make a profit in the face of strong, protracted trends or "black swans".
* The problem it solves: The usual grid of orders has a limited depth. If the price goes beyond the last safety order, the strategy loses the opportunity to average and becomes vulnerable.
* The principle of operation: The MultiGRID function allows you to create "cascades" — several grids following one another. When all the orders of the first grid are executed, the strategy does not stop. Instead, she can activate the second, third (and so on) a grid of orders. The new grid can be activated by one of two triggers:
1. Offset: The new grid is activated when the price passes another set percentage deviation from the last executed order.
2. Signal: The new grid is activated when a signal is received from an external indicator.
* Goal: To significantly expand the working range of the strategy. This allows it to adapt to strong market movements that would "break" the usual grid, and continue to effectively average a position at a much greater depth of decline or growth.
5. Channel Mode — Trading in the range
This feature turns a standard averaging strategy into a machine for "farming" profits within a price channel that is formed during a sideways market movement.
* The problem it solves: In the standard grid strategy, after partially closing a take profit position, the volume of this part "leaves" the trade until the deal is fully closed. You are missing the opportunity to reuse this capital.
* Operating principle: When Channel Mode is enabled, the following happens. Suppose the price went against you, executed several safety orders, and then turned around and reached one of the partial take profits. At this point, the strategy is:
1. Fixes the profit, as it should be.
2. Instantly places a new limit order to buy (or sell for a short) at exactly the same price level where the last triggered safety order was executed. The volume of this order is equal to the volume of the part that was just closed for take profit.
3. If the price goes down again and executes this "repeat" order, the strategy immediately sets a corresponding take profit for it at the level where the previous profit was taken.
* Goal: To create a continuous buy-sell cycle within the local range (channel). The lower limit of the channel is the price of the last averaging, and the upper limit is the price of a partial take profit. This allows you to repeatedly profit from sideways price fluctuations, without waiting for the full closure of the main, large transaction.
6. LTF (Lower Timeframe Analysis) — Surgical precision of backtesting
This feature is critically important for obtaining reliable results during historical testing (backtesting) of grid strategies.
* The problem it solves: The standard testing mechanism in TradingView has a serious limitation. Working, for example, on a 4-hour chart, he sees only 4 candle points: Open, High, Low and Close. He does not know in what order the price moved within these 4 hours. He could have touched High first and then Low, or vice versa. For grid strategies, this is fatal — the engine can show that a take profit has been executed, although in reality the price first went down, collected the entire grid of orders and only then turned around.
* How it works: When you turn on the LTF mode, the strategy for each candle on your main chart (for example, 4H) requests and analyzes all candles from the lower timeframe you specified (for example, 1-minute). Then it virtually trades the entire price path for these minute candles, executing orders, take profits and stop losses in the sequence in which they would occur in reality. It works in the single take profit mode of the Grid strategy.
* Goal: To provide the most realistic and reliable backtest that reflects the real dynamics of the market. This allows you to avoid false expectations and accurately assess the potential performance of the strategy.

Part 2: Detailed description of the strategy settings
This section is your main guide to all the switches and options available in the strategy. Understanding each setting is the key to unlocking the full potential of this powerful tool.
1. 🛡️ Risk Management 🛡️
This group contains fundamental parameters that determine the basic logic of risk management and the geometry of grid orders.
* Strategy type: Determines the direction of transactions.
* Long: The strategy will only open long positions (buy).
* Short: The strategy will only open short positions (sell).
* Both: The strategy will work both ways, opening long or short depending on the incoming signal.
* SO Count: Sets the maximum number of Safety (averaging) Orders (SO) that the strategy will place within the same grid. If you have MultiGRID enabled, this number applies to each individual grid.
* SO Step (%): This is the base percentage deviation from the entry price at which the first safety order will be placed. For example, at a value of 0.5, the first SO in a long trade will be placed 0.5% lower than the opening price of the base order.
* SO Multiplier: A coefficient that exponentially increases the step for each subsequent safety order. This allows you to create an expanding grid where averaging orders are placed further and further apart, which is effective with strong and accelerating price movements.
* *The step formula for the nth order*: Step(N) = (SO Step) * (SO Multiplier ^(N-1)).
* If the value is 1, all steps will be the same.
* With a value of 1.6, the step of the second SO will be 1.6 times larger than the first, the step of the third will be 1.6 times larger than the second, and so on.
* 1️⃣ TP/SL: These are simplified settings for quick configuration. They allow you to turn on/off the main take profit and stop loss and set basic percentage values for them. More detailed settings for these parameters can be found in the relevant sections below.
// ------------------------
2. 💰 Money Management 💰
Everything related to position size, leverage, and capital is configured here.
* Volume BO (Base Order): Determines the size of the trade's opening order.
* Volume BO: A fixed amount in the quote currency (for example, in USDT).
* USDT (check mark): Manages the information in the comments to the orders. If enabled, the volume of orders in USDT will be displayed in the comments. This is convenient for visual analysis and for sending the amount of USDT by the placeholder {{strategy.order.comment}} via webhooks when connecting the strategy to the exchange or trading terminals.
* or % of deposit: The amount calculated as a percentage of the available capital of the strategy. The check mark to the right of this field enables this mode. Important: using a percentage activates the effect of compounding (compound interest), as the amount of each new transaction will be automatically recalculated based on the current capital (initial capital + profit/loss). If enabled, the percentage of orders will be displayed in the comments. This is convenient for visual analysis and for sending percentages on the placeholder {{strategy.order.comment}} via webhooks when connecting the strategy to the stock exchange, trading terminals, or creating Copy trading.
* Martingale: The coefficient applied to the volume of orders. It increases the size of each subsequent insurance order compared to the base one.
* Volume formula for the nth SO: Volume SO (N) = (Volume BO) * (Martingale^N).
* With a value of 1.2, the volume of the first SO will be 1.2 times greater than the base, the second — 1.44 times (`1.2 * 1.2`) and so on.
* Leverage: Specify the size of your leverage. This parameter is used exclusively for calculating and displaying the approximate liquidation price. It does not affect the size of positions, but it helps to visually assess the risks.
* Liquidation: Enables or disables the calculation and display of the liquidation line on the chart.
* Margin type: Allows you to select a method for calculating the liquidation price, simulating the logic of exchanges:
* Isolated: The liquidation price is calculated based on the size and leverage of the current open position only.
* Cross: The calculation simulates using the entire available balance to maintain a position. In the strategy, the liquidation price is calculated as the level at which the loss on the current transaction is equal to the current capital.
* Commission (%): Specify the percentage of your exchange's commission per transaction. The correct value of this parameter is crucial for obtaining realistic backtest results.
// ------------------------
3. 🕸️ Grid Management 🕸️
This group is responsible for the logic of safety orders and advanced mechanics such as Channel Mode and MultiGRID.
* SO Type: Defines the logic of placing averaging orders.
* GRID: Classic grid. All safety orders are placed in advance as limit orders.
* DCA: Signal averaging. The strategy is waiting for a signal from an external indicator to place a market averaging order.
* GRID+DCA: Hybrid. The strategy waits for a signal, and if it arrives, places a limit order at the appropriate price level of the grid or executes a market order if the signal has arrived below the limit order level.
* Signal for SO: A data source (indicator) that will be used for signals in DCA and GRID+DCA modes.
* ↔️ Channel Mode: When this option is enabled, the strategy tries to trade in a sideways range. After partially closing a take profit position, it immediately places a limit order for re-entry at the price of the last triggered safety order. This creates a buy-sell cycle within the local channel.
* Best Price Only: This filter adds an additional condition for averaging in DCA and MultiGRID modes (when it operates on a signal). The next averaging order or a new grid will be activated only if the current price is more favorable (lower for long, higher for short) than the price of the previous entry.
* 🧩 MultiGRID ⮕ Enables cascading grid mode.
* Grid Count: The total number of grids that can be activated sequentially.
* Offset: Percentage deviation from the price of the last order of the previous grid. When this margin is reached, the following grid of orders is activated (this mode does not require a signal).
* Or signal: Allows you to use the signal from an external indicator as a trigger to activate the next grid. The checkmark on the right turns on this mode.
// ------------------------
4. 🎯 Entry and Stop 🎯
This group of settings allows you to fine-tune the conditions for starting a new trade and all aspects related to protective stop orders, including the complex mechanics of trailing and managing SL after partial take profits.
* 🎯 Signal: A data source (indicator) that will be used to determine when to enter a trade. The strategy expects a value of 1 for the start of a long trade and -1 for a short trade.
* Min Bars: Sets the minimum number of candles that must pass from the moment of opening the previous trade to the moment of opening the next one. A value of 0 disables this filter. This is a useful tool to prevent overly frequent entries in a "noisy" market.
* Non-stop: If this option is enabled, the strategy ignores the Entry Signal and opens a new trade immediately after closing the previous one (taking into account the Min Bars filter, if it is set). This turns the strategy into a constantly working mechanism that is always on the market.
* 🛑 SL Type: Defines the base price from which the stop loss percentage will be calculated. The stop loss in the first section must be enabled for this block of settings to work.
* From the entry point: SL is always calculated from the opening price of the very first base order. It remains static throughout the entire transaction unless it is moved by other functions.
* From breakeven line: SL is dynamically recalculated and shifted each time a safety order is executed. It always follows the average price of the position, being at a given percentage distance from it.
* From last executed SO: SL is recalculated from the price of the last executed order, whether it is a base or a safety order.
* From last SO: SL is calculated from the price of the most recent possible safety order in the grid. This is usually the most remote and conservative type of SL.
* Trailing SL Type: Defines the algorithm by which the stop loss will move after its activation.
* Standard: Classic trailing. After activation, SL will follow the price at a fixed distance.
* ATR: SL will follow the price at a distance equal to the value of the ATR indicator multiplied by the specified multiplier.
* External Source: SL will follow any selected line of the third-party indicator.
* Period and Multiplier: Common parameters for all types of trailing.
* Source: The source of the line for the trailing SL of the third-party indicator.
* Trailing SL after entry: The mode of activation of the trailing SL after entering the transaction
* SL management after TP (sections 1️⃣, 2️⃣, 3️⃣): These three blocks allow you to create a complex stop loss management logic as profits are recorded.
For each take profit level (TP1, TP2, TP3), you can configure:
* SL BE / SL TP1 / SL TP2: When the corresponding TP is reached, the stop loss will be moved to the breakeven point (for TP1), to the TP1 price level (for TP2) or to the TP2 price level (for TP3).
* Trailing SL: When the corresponding TP is reached, the trailing stop loss is activated according to the settings above.
* By ↔️ Signal: A very powerful option. If it is enabled, the above action (SL transfer or trailing activation) will occur when the opposite trading signal is received from an external indicator. This allows you to protect profits or reduce losses if the market turns sharply, even before reaching the target.
* SL Delay ⮕ Allows you to delay the activation of the stop loss.
* Number of Bars: The Stop loss will be physically placed on the market only after the specified number of candles has passed since entering the trade. This can help to avoid "taking out" the stop with a random short movement (squiz) immediately after opening a position.
* SL Block: Unique defensive mechanics for trading both ways (`Strategy Type: Both`).
* Number of SL: If the strategy receives the specified number of stop losses in a row in one direction (for example, 2 stops long), it temporarily blocks the opportunity to open new trades in that direction.
* Lock Reset mode:
* By direction: The lock is lifted if a profitable trade is closed in the allowed direction or if a stop loss is triggered in the opposite direction.
* First profit: The lock is lifted after closing any profitable transaction, regardless of its direction.
// ------------------------
5. ✅ Take Profit ✅
This group of settings provides comprehensive control over profit taking, from a simple take profit to a complex system of partial closures and trailing.
* ✅ TP Type: Defines the base price for calculating the percentage deviation of the take profit.
* From entry point: TP is calculated from the base order price.
* From breakeven line: TP dynamically follows the average position price.
* From last executed SO: TP is calculated from the price of the last executed order.
* Filters for closing on signal
* Only ➕: If TP is triggered by a signal, the deal will be closed only if it is in the black relative to the average price.
* Or >TP: If TP is triggered by a signal, the trade will be closed only if the closing price is better than (or equal to) the estimated price of this TP.
* TP type of trailing: Yes, take profit has a trailing too! It works differently than the SL trailing.
* Standard / ATR: After the price touches the "virtual" TP level, the trailing is activated. He does not place a stop order, but begins to move away from the price, dynamically moving the limit order to close further and further in the profitable direction, allowing him to collect the maximum from the impulse movement.
* External Source: TP will follow any selected line of the third-party indicator.
* Period and Multiplier: Parameters for calculating the trailing margin TP.
* Source: The source of the line for the trailing TP of the third-party indicator.
* TP level settings (sections 1️⃣, 2️⃣, 3️⃣, 4️⃣): The strategy supports up to four independent take profit levels, which allows for a flexible system of partial commits.
For each level, you can set:
* TP: Enable the level and set its percentage deviation from the base price.
* Size: What percentage of the current position will be closed when this level is reached. For the last active TP, this parameter is ignored, and 100% of the remaining position is closed.
* Trailing TP: Enable the above-described trailing mechanism for this particular level.
* Signal: Enable closing based on the signal from the external indicator for this level.
* Or take: If both the closing on the signal and the limit order are enabled, then whatever comes first will work.
* After SO: Activate this TP level only after the specified number of safety orders has been executed. This allows you to set closer targets for riskier (deeply averaged) positions.
// ------------------------
6. 🔬 GRID and MultiGrid Analysis on Lower TFs (LTF) 🔬
This group activates one of the most important functions for accurate testing of grid strategies.
* Enable LTF Calculation ⮕ The main switch of the analysis mode on the lower timeframes.
* Timeframe selection: A drop-down list where you can select a timeframe for detailed analysis. For example, if your main schedule is 1 hour, you can select 1 minute here. The strategy will emulate the trading of minute candles within each hour candle.
❗️Important: As mentioned in the first part, the use of this mode is critically necessary to obtain realistic backtest results, especially for strategies with a dense grid of orders. Without it, the results may be overly optimistic and not reflect the real dynamics of the market. It should be remembered that TradingView imposes a limit on the number of intra-bars (minor TF bars) that can be requested. This is usually about 100,000 bars.
// ------------------------
7. 🕘 Backtest Date Range 🕘
This group allows you to focus testing on a specific historical period.
* Limit Date Range: Enables date filtering.
* Start time: The date and time when the strategy will start analyzing and opening deals.
* End time: The date and time after which the strategy will stop opening new deals and complete testing.
// ------------------------
8. 🎨 Visualization 🎨
All the options responsible for the appearance and information content of the chart are collected here.
* Show PnL labels: Enables/disables the display of text labels with the result (profit/loss) after closing each trade.
* Statistics Table: Enables/disables the main dashboard with detailed statistics on the results of the backtest.
* Strategy Settings Table: Enables/disables an additional panel that summarizes all the key parameters of the current configuration.
* Monthly Profit Table: Enables/disables a table with a breakdown of percentage returns by month and year.
* Table settings: For each of the three tables, you can individually adjust the Text size and Table Position on the screen to position them as conveniently as possible.
* Decimal places: Defines how many decimal places will be displayed in numeric values in tables and on labels.
// ------------------------
9. ✉️ Webhook Settings ✉️
This group is intended for traders who want to automate trading on strategy signals using third-party services and exchanges (for example, 3Commas, WunderTrading, Cryptorobotics, Cryptohopper, Bitsgap, Binance, ByBit, OKX, Pionex, Bitget or proprietary solutions).
For each key event in the strategy, there is a separate switch and a text field:
* Webhook for Open: Enable and set a message for the webhook that will be sent when the base order is opened.
* Webhook for Averaging: A message sent when executing any insurance order.
* Webhook for Take Profit: A message sent when closing on take profit (including partial ones).
* Webhook for Stop-Loss: A message sent when a stop loss is closed.
You can insert a JSON code or any other message format that your service requires for automation into the text fields. The strategy supports special placeholders (for example, `{{strategy.order.alert_message}}`), which allow you to dynamically insert the necessary data into the message, such as the amount of USDT or the percentage of the deposit for entry, averaging and take profit orders.
