MoonFlag BTC Daily Swing PredictorThis script mainly works on BTC on the daily timeframe. Other coins also show similar usefulness with this script however, BTC on the daily timeframe is the main design for this script.
(Please note this is not trading advice this is just comments about how this indicator works.)
This script is predictive. It colors the background yellow when the script calculates a large BTC swing is potentially about to happen. It does not predict in which direction the swing will occur but it leads the price action so can be useful for leveraged trades. When the background gets colored with vertical yellow lines - this shows that a largish price swing is probably going to occur.
The scripts also shades bands around the price action that are used to estimate an acceptable volatility at any given time. If the bands are wide that means price action is volatile and large swings are not easily predicted. Over time, with reducing volatility, these price action bands narrow and then at a set point or percentage (%) which can be set in the script settings, the background gets colored yellow. This indicates present price action is not volatile and a large price swing is potentially going to happen in the near future. When price action breaks through the narrowing bands, the background is no longer presented because this is seen as an increase in volatility and a considerable portion of the time, a large sudden drop in price action or momentous gain in price is realized.
This indicator leads price action. It predicts that a swing is possibly going to happen in the near future. As the indicator works on the BTC daily, this means on a day-to-day basis if the bands continually narrow - a breakout is more likely to happen. In order to see how well this indicator works, have a look at the results on the screenshot provided. Note the regions where vertical yellow lines are present on the price action - and then look after these to see if a sizeable swing in price has occurred.
To use this indicator - wait until yellow vertical lines are presented on the BTC daily. Then use your experience to determine which way the price action might swing and consider entering a trade or leveraged trade in this direction. Alternatively wait a while to see in which direction the break-out occurs and considering and attempt to trade with this. Sometimes swings can be unexpected and breakout in one direction before then swinging much larger in the other. Its important to remember/consider that this indicator works on the BTC daily timeframe, so any consideration of entering a trade should be expected to cover a duration over many days or weeks, or possibly months. A large swing is only estimated every several plus months.
Most indicators are based on moving averages. A moving average is not predictive in the sense in that it lags price actions. This indicator creates bands that are based on the momentum of the price action. A change in momentum of price action therefore causes the bands to widen. When the bands narrow this means that the momentum of the price action is steady and price action volatility has converged/reduced over time. With BTC this generally means that a large swing in price action is going to occur as momentum in price action then pick-up again in one direction or another. Trying to view this using moving averages is not easy as a moving average lags price action which means that it is difficult to predict any sudden movements in price action ahead of when they might occur. Although, moving averages will converge over time in a similar manner as the bands calculated by this script. This script however, uses the price action momentum in a predictive manner to estimate where the price action might go based on present price momentum. This script therefore reacts to reduced volatility in price action much faster than a set of moving averages over various timescales can achieve.

52 Week High/Low FibonacciThe primary purpose of this indicator is to calculate and plot the 52-week high and low prices along with the Fibonacci retracement levels on the price chart. Fibonacci levels are commonly used in trading to identify potential support, resistance, and price reversal points.
First, the script initializes the Fibonacci levels and their corresponding colors, which will be used to plot the levels on the chart. Next, it calculates the 52-week high and low prices by finding the highest and lowest prices over the last 252 trading days, approximately equivalent to one year. Then, it identifies the overall trend direction by comparing the number of bars since the highest high and the lowest low. If the highest high is more recent, the trend is considered downwards; if the lowest low is more recent, the trend is upwards.
The script then plots the Fibonacci retracement levels on the chart, using horizontal lines at the respective price levels. It also creates labels for each level, displaying the percentage and the price value. Additionally, it draws a line connecting the 52-week high and low prices, providing a visual representation of the price range during the 52-week period.
Pros of this indicator include:
-Automatic calculation and plotting of Fibonacci levels, saving time for traders
-Clear trend identification based on 52-week high and low prices
-Visually appealing and easy-to-read chart representation with color-coded levels
-Provides insight into potential price reversal areas based on widely used Fibonacci levels
Cons of this indicator include:
-Only works on daily timeframes, limiting its usefulness for intraday and weekly traders
-Assumes that the trend will continue in the same direction, which may not always be accurate in real-world markets
-Does not provide explicit buy or sell signals, leaving the trading decision-making process up to the trader
-Solely relies on Fibonacci levels, which may not always be accurate; it is recommended to use other technical indicators or strategies alongside this indicator for a comprehensive trading approach
In conclusion, the '52 Week High Low Fibonacci' indicator is a valuable tool for traders interested in using Fibonacci levels for identifying potential price reversal points. By automatically calculating and plotting these levels based on 52-week high and low prices, the indicator provides a clear, color-coded visual aid, which can be especially helpful for traders who base their strategies on these levels.
However, it's worth noting that this indicator is limited to daily timeframes and doesn't provide explicit buy or sell signals, requiring traders to incorporate their own analysis and judgement in their decision-making process. The indicator also operates on the assumption of trend continuation, which may not always hold true.
While it's a beneficial tool, relying solely on this indicator for trading decisions may not be advisable. It's best used in conjunction with other indicators and trading strategies, providing a more balanced and comprehensive approach to trading in the financial markets. As always, risk management should be a key part of any trading strategy.

Extended Session High/Low - Intraday and daily chartsThis script plots the extended session highest high and lowest low levels. It works on any time frame from 1 minute to daily.
Please note that during the extended session, TradingView stops updating the daily chart. This means that once the script is loaded on a daily chart, it will not be updated until the market opens, unless you manually reload the layout (Ctrl+R). For this reason, it is recommended to use a multi-timeframe layout, so when the pre/post market line is near the extended session high/low on the daily chart, you can compare these values with those on an intraday chart of the same ticker.
The extended session high/low are important for day traders because they represent the maximum and minimum limits within which the trades have taken place during the extended trading hours. This can make them levels of support/resistance that can be useful for planning trend following, reversal and range-bound strategies.
By displaying the extended session high/low on the daily chart, traders can also see if there are any significant levels nearby that are related to the daily time frame, such as trendlines, support/resistance levels, or moving averages. This can help the trader evaluate whether there is enough room for a price movement in the direction of his trading strategy.
Furious PivotsSimple script marking out quarter points plus weekly and daily highs and lows! pretty damn useful
Previous Day, Week, Month High/Low Line IndicatorMade a line indicator for previous Daily Weekly & Monthly High / Low. You can use all 3 (D,W,M) or just one by editing the settings.
Replay Mode - Check HTF CandleThis indicator is intended to be used while using Replay Mode.
A vertical line will be drawn when you can safely check the 4H, Daily, or Weekly candle without seeing future price.
It is similar to the built-in Session Breaks, but has the benefit of not needing to remove one candle before checking the Daily.
When the line is the color of your 4H settings, it is safe to check the 4H candle.
When the line is the color of your Daily settings, it is safe to check the 4H and Daily candles.
When the line is the color of your Weekly settings, it is safe to check the 4H, Daily and Weekly candles
Long Term Moving AverageThis scripts plots the long term moving average calculated daily for 4 sets.
The default averages are:

Multi TF High/Low/Open/Close LineNOTE: I'm not sure why the screengrab isn't showing the lines. They are there, and when I share the chart from this link they are there.... idk
This is a requested spin-off version of my previous HLOC for the Daily/Weekly/Monthly that allows users to choose 3 different timeframe units (Mins, Hours, Days, etc...) from the dropdown menu and then select the lookback period in which to draw the HLOC.
I've had quite a few requests to allow users to see multiple lookbacks for the same timeframe unit, mostly weekly, and I did not wish to change that particular script for that purpose. However, I was able to take the existing script and alter it for user input.
This indicator draws a line on the TF 1, TF 2, and TF 3 bar at the High, Low, Open and Close of user input Timeframe unit and selected lookback period.
The lookback period will go back the number of candles entered. So for example if you choose a 5 Min chart with a lookback of 3, the lines will be drawn on the HLOC 3 closed 5 min candles back. Selecting 0 will show data on the current Real-Time candle.
An example of a request I have gotten was for last week, the previous week and the previous month. The settings for that would be: TF 1 - 1 week Lookback 1, TF 2 - 1 week Lookback 2, TF 3 - 1 month Lookback 1.
Each set of lines has an optional identifying label with its own color set that can be shown with or without price value, and has drop down menus for size and style of each set of labels. The TF unit value is displayed on the label, but not the lookback.
So if you are using the hourly on all 3 TF's with different lookback periods, they will all say "60" on the label.
I recommend using the line and label options to distinguish between the different lookback values.
Each set of lines has inputs for line/text color, line width and style and each line argument can be selected independently.
In the chart example I have displayed only the High and Low on three 1 hour TF's with the lookback of 4, 5 and 6 candles with the labels descending in size. With this data I can see that over the last 6 hours the price of ES is in an descending pattern and I should be on alert for a break.
Since I trade ES in RTH on a much lower timeframe, this data can alert me to a bigger picture potential trend change or continuation. I would personally use this with pivot data for timing and look for entries in areas of high volume that moved price to a new
high or low that have not been retested.
I will be looking to add a user input offset for labels in the future. I have had bad luck with it in the past working for a couple weeks and then throwing an error, but I will look into it again soon.
I also recommend going into Chart Settings/Status Line and turning off indicator arguments OR moving the script to the top of the indicator list to avoid obstructed chart view with this indicators arguments. When script allows, I will update it to hide them.
Multi Timeframe EMA by DigitaldYou can use this indicator to show the Daily-EMAs beside the EMAs of the current timeframe.
Everything can be adjusted

ATR Daily Levels Band NakitxuAverage True Range
What Is the Average True Range (ATR)?
The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following: current high less the current low; the absolute value of the current high less the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low less the previous close.
The ATR is then a moving average, generally using 14 days, of the true ranges.
This script is an especial request of a TradingView user.
Shows 5 levels based on ATR daily, plotted in wherever timeframe you are using:
level 1: prv day ATR + prv day close
level 2: prv day ATR + prv day high
level 3: level 2 - prv day ATR
level 4: prv day close - prv day ATR
level 5: prv day low - prv day
Only show the levels if you are in a timeframe daily or lower than daily.
GBP/JPY Daily time FX Strategy ATR W% BaselineThis is a preety good strategy suited for long term trading.
It has been adapted and optimized in this case for GBP/JPY 1D time frame.
Its made of Kiojun baseline, together with ATR for stop loss and size calculation and Williams % R
For the purpose of this example we simulate that we have a leverage of 100x in order to be able to buy the ammount of lots required for our stop loss to be in same page with the risk % of our capital.
For entry we have for long, ascending R in the last 2 candles and crossover of close with KIOJUN baseline. For short the same but in reverse.
We exit if we reach the TP -100 points in this example, or SL , which is based on ATR of the last x days.

Reset Every (Price)Someone requested a high/low price indicator that would reset the "remembered" prices daily. I started out doing just that, and then decided to make it much more configurable.
Choose the units (minutes, hours, days, weeks, months) and the number of those units, and this will reset the highest/lowest value remembered to the current values on your chosen time interval.
This should work with any time interval you desire, within reason...asking for resets every 4000 hours on a monthly chart will probably not work.
GE, monthly, every 7 months:
Ford, weekly, every 18 months:
Dow Jones Industrial Average, weekly, every 90 days:
LTCBTC, daily, every 10 days:
ETHUSD, 30 minutes, every 10 days:
BTCUSD, 1 minute, every 10 hours:
EURUSD, 1 minute, every 50 minutes:
Also, I am about to publish another version of this with just one source input that can be applied to any indicator...stay tuned!
MAGNUS® CyclesThis indicator will help you if you struggle making any profit in bitcoin.
It generates very few signals with very nice profit potential ( around 100% this year ! ).
Perfect tool for longterm swing traders and new traders that need help figuring out the midterm trend.
Use it with these parameters only:
weekly: 13, 5, 12
daily: 92, 21, 96
Bias DailyThis indicator shows in a different way how to evaluate the BIAS Daily.
Evaluate yesterday's closed candle and that of the day before yesterday
The conditions are:
LONG BIAS =
Candle closed above High Candle [2 ]
- In this condition a long continuation can be considered
SHORT BIAS =
The candle closed below the low candle [2 ]
- In this condition a short continuation can be considered
IN THE RANGE =
The candle did not close below or above the Low and High candle
- In this condition it is better not to risk it
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose to show high or low BIAS levels
- Shows the Table in which the BIAS D is marked
The indicator should be used as TTrades shows in its videos, it can also be implemented in ICT strategies.
The indicator takes into consideration the last 2 candles already closed, so on the candle that is forming you can expect reactions in the Pd Array of the Candle Range , below I show examples of how to use it in Multitimeframe

[PDR] Daily Rebalance█ OVERVIEW
This indicator is a powerful portfolio backtesting tool designed to simulate the performance of a static-weight, daily rebalancing strategy. It allows you to define a portfolio of up to 10 assets, set their target weights, and track its cumulative return against a user-defined benchmark and a risk-free rate.
The core of the script is its daily rebalancing logic, which calculates and logs every trade needed to bring the portfolio back to its target allocations at the close of each day. This provides a transparent and detailed view of how a static portfolio would have performed historically, including the impact of trading costs.
█ KEY FEATURES
Daily Rebalancing: Simulates a portfolio that is rebalanced at the close of every day to maintain target asset allocations.
Customizable Portfolio: Configure up to 10 different assets with specific weights. If all weights are left at 0, the script automatically creates an equal-weight portfolio from the selected assets.
Performance Comparison: Plots the portfolio's equity curve against a user-defined benchmark (e.g., SET:SET50 ) and a risk-free return, allowing for easy relative performance analysis.
Realistic Simulation: Accounts for trading costs like broker commission and minimum lot sizes for more accurate and grounded backtesting results.
Detailed Performance Metrics: An on-chart table displays real-time statistics, including Current Drawdown, Max Drawdown, and Total Return for both your portfolio and the benchmark.
Trade-by-Trade Logs: For full transparency, every rebalancing trade (BUY/SELL), including shares, price, notional value, and fees, is logged in the Pine Logs panel.
█ HOW TO USE
**Apply to a Daily Chart:** This script is designed to work exclusively on the daily ( 1D ) timeframe. Applying it to any other timeframe will result in a runtime error.
**Configure Settings:** Open the indicator's settings. Set your `Initial Capital`, `Start Time`, and the `Benchmark` symbol you wish to compare against.
**Define Your Assets:** In the 'Assets' group, check the box to enable each asset you want to include, select the symbol, and define its target `Weight (%)`.
**Set Trading Costs:** Adjust the `Broker Commission (%)` and `Minimal Buyable Lot` to match your expected trading conditions.
**Analyze the Results:** The performance curves are plotted in the indicator pane below your main chart. The key metrics table is displayed on the bottom-right of your chart.
**View Rebalancing Trades:** This is a crucial step for understanding the simulation. To see the detailed daily trades, you **must** open the **Pine Logs**. You can find this panel at the bottom of your TradingView window, next to the "Pine Editor" and "Strategy Tester" tabs. The logs provide a complete breakdown of every rebalancing action.
█ DISCLAIMER
This is a backtesting and simulation tool, not a trading signal generator. Its purpose is for research and performance analysis. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always conduct your own research before making any investment decisions.

BMSB Watchlist Alert - Daily w/ 1% Proximity# Bull Market Support Band - Daily Updates with Proximity Alerts
## Overview
This indicator tracks the Bull Market Support Band (20-week SMA and 21-week EMA) with daily resolution updates and proximity warnings. The weekly moving averages update every day on your chart, giving you more frequent signals than traditional weekly-only scripts.
## What It Does
The script monitors price action relative to the BMSB and generates alerts for:
- Price crossing above or below either the 20W SMA or 21W EMA
- Price coming within 1% of either moving average (early warning system)
This proximity feature is useful for catching potential support/resistance tests before they actually happen, giving you advance notice to prepare for entries or exits.
## Key Features
- Weekly MAs that update daily for more responsive monitoring
- Configurable proximity threshold (default 1%, adjustable from 0.1% to 5%)
- Visual proximity zones shown as dotted lines around each MA
- Color-coded background highlighting (green when above both MAs, red when below both, orange when in proximity zone)
- On-chart labels for crosses and proximity warnings
- Status table showing current position relative to the band
## Setup for Watchlist Alerts
1. Add the indicator to any chart
2. Create alerts using these conditions:
- "BMSB Cross Alert" - fires on actual crosses
- "BMSB Proximity Alert" - fires when entering the 1% zone
3. Set interval to 1 day (recommended) or 4 hour for more frequent checks
4. Use "Once Per Bar Close" for the trigger option
5. Apply the same alert to your entire watchlist
## Settings
You can toggle on/off:
- Cross above alerts
- Cross below alerts
- Proximity alerts
- Proximity percentage adjustment
- Visual elements (labels, MA lines, proximity zones)
## Notes
The BMSB is commonly used in crypto markets to identify bull market pullback support levels. This implementation adds the proximity warning system to help you anticipate potential tests of these key levels rather than waiting for confirmed crosses.
Works on any timeframe but designed for daily monitoring of weekly moving averages.
NS ND - EVR - Daily Bias - TRFxVolume & Price Action Signals
What It Does
Combines three proven trading methodologies: Effort vs Result (EVR), No Supply/No Demand (NS/ND), and Daily Bias tracking for intraday traders.
Features
Effort vs Result (EVR)
- **Bullish**: Green triangle below bar when price sweeps previous low with high volume and significant wick
- **Bearish**: Red triangle above bar when price sweeps previous high with high volume and significant wick
- Identifies potential reversals where volume doesn't match price movement
No Supply / No Demand (NS/ND)
- **No Demand (Red dot)**: Up-candle with declining volume - buyers weakening
- **No Supply (Green dot)**: Down-candle with declining volume - sellers weakening
- Grey dots = unconfirmed, colored dots = confirmed within lookahead period
- Based on Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) principles
Daily Bias Label
Top-right corner shows market direction:
- **BULLISH ↑** - Closed above Previous Day High
- **BEARISH ↓** - Closed below Previous Day Low
- **BULLISH/BEARISH REV** - Swept level but closed back inside
- **RANGE ↔** - Trading between PDH/PDL
## Settings
- **EVR**: Toggle on/off, volume multiplier, wick %, inside bars, transparency
- **NS/ND**: Toggle on/off, lookahead bars (default: 10)
- **Daily Bias**: Toggle label display
## Best For
✓ Intraday trading (1m-1h timeframes)
✓ Reversal setups
✓ Volume analysis
✓ Confluence trading (all signals align)
How to Use
1. Enable components you want (all can be toggled independently)
2. Trade EVR signals in direction of Daily Bias
3. Look for NS/ND confirmation at key levels
4. Wait for colored dots (confirmed signals) over grey (unconfirmed)
**Note**: Works on intraday timeframes only. NS/ND signals may repaint during confirmation period.
FirstStrike Long 200 - Daily Trend Rider [KedArc Quant]Strategy Description
FirstStrike Long 200 is a disciplined, long-only momentum strategy designed for daily "strike-first" entries in trending markets. It scans for RSI momentum above a customizable trigger (default 50), confirmed by EMA trend filters, and limits you to *exactly one trade per day* to avoid overtrading. It uses ATR for dynamic risk management (1.5x stop, 2:1 RR target) and optional trailing stops to ride winners. Backtested with realistic commissions and sizing, it prioritizes low drawdowns (<1% max in tests) over aggressive gains—ideal for swing traders seeking quality setups in bull runs.
Why It's Different from Other Strategies
Unlike generic RSI crossover bots or EMA ribbon mashups that spam signals and bleed in chop, FirstStrike enforces a "one-and-done" daily gate, blending precision momentum (RSI modes with grace/sustain) with robust filters (volume, sessions, rearm dips).
How It Helps Traders
- Reduces Emotional Trading: One entry/day forces discipline—miss a setup? Wait for tomorrow. Perfect for busy pros avoiding screen fatigue.
- Adapts to Regimes: Switch modes for trends ("Cross+Grace") vs. ranges ("Any bar")—boosts win rates 5-10% in backtests on high-beta names like .
- Risk-First Design: ATR scales stops to vol capping DD at 0.2% while targeting 2R winners. Trailing option locks +3-5% runs without early exits.
- Quick Insights: Labels/alerts flag entries with RSI values; bgcolor highlights signals for visual scanning. Helps spot "first-strike" edges in uptrends, filtering ~60% noise.
Why This Is Not a Mashup
This isn't a Frankenstein of off-the-shelf indicators—while it uses standard RSI/EMA/ATR (core Pine primitives), the innovation lies in:
- Custom Trigger Engine: Switchable modes (e.g., "Cross+Grace+Sustain" requires post-cross hold) prevent perpetual signals, unlike basic `ta.crossover()`.
- Daily Rearm Gate: Resets eligibility only after a dip (if enabled), tying momentum to mean-reversion—original logic not found in common scripts.
- Per-Day Isolation: `var` vars + `ta.change(time("D"))` ensure zero pyramiding/overlaps, beyond simple session filters.
All formulae are derived in-house for "first-strike" (early RSI pops in trends), not copied from public repos.
Input Configurations
Let's break down every input in the FirstStrike Long 200 strategy. These settings let you tweak the strategy like a dashboard—start with defaults for quick testing,
then adjust based on your asset or timeframe (5m for intraday). They're grouped logically to keep things organized, and most have tooltips in the script for quick reminders.
RSI / Trigger Group: The Heart of Momentum Detection
This is where the magic starts—the strategy hunts for "upward energy" using RSI (Relative Strength Index), a tool that measures if a stock is overbought (too hot) or oversold (too cold) on a 0-100 scale.
- RSI Length: How many bars (candles) back to calculate RSI. Default is 14, like a 14-day window for daily charts. Shorter (e.g., 9) makes it snappier for fast markets; longer (21) smooths out noise but misses quick turns.
- Trigger Level (RSI >= this): The key RSI value where the strategy says, "Go time!" Default 50 means enter when RSI crosses or holds above the neutral midline. Why is this trigger required? It acts as your "green light" filter—without it, you'd enter on every tiny price wiggle, leading to endless losers. RSI above this shows building buyer power, avoiding weak or sideways moves. It's essential for quality over quantity, especially in one-trade-per-day setups.
- Trigger Mode: Picks how strict the RSI signal must be. Options: "Cross only" (exact RSI crossover above trigger—super precise, fewer trades); "Cross+Grace" (crossover or within a grace window after—gives a second chance); "Cross+Grace+Sustain" (crossover/grace plus RSI holding steady for bars—best for steady climbs); "Any bar >= trigger" (looser, any bar above—more opportunities but riskier in chop). Start with "Any bar" for trends, switch to "Cross only" for caution.
- Grace Window (bars after cross): If mode allows, how many bars post-RSI-cross you can still enter if RSI dips but recovers. Default 30 (about 2.5 hours on 5m). Zero means no wiggle room—pure precision.
- Sustain Bars (RSI >= trigger): In sustain mode, how many straight bars RSI must stay above trigger. Default 3 ensures it's not a fluke spike.
- Require RSI Dip Below Rearm Before Any Entry?: A yes/no toggle. If on, the strategy "rearms" only after RSI dips below a low level (like a breather), preventing back-to-back signals in overextended rallies.
- Rearm Level (if requireDip=true): The dip threshold for rearming. Default 45—RSI must go below this to reset eligibility. Lower (30) for deeper pullbacks in volatile stocks.
For the trigger level itself, presets matter a lot—default 50 is neutral and versatile for broad trends. Bump to 55-60 for "strong momentum only" (fewer but higher-win trades, great in bull runs like tech surges); drop to 40-45 for "early bird" catches in recoveries (more signals but watch for fakes in ranges). The optimize hint (40-60) lets you test these in TradingView to match your risk—higher presets cut noise by 20-30% in backtests.
Trend / Filters Group: Keeping You on the Right Side of the Market
These EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages) act like guardrails, ensuring you only long in uptrends.
- EMA (Fast) Confirmation: Short-term EMA for price action. Default 20 periods—price must be above this for "recent strength." Shorter (10) reacts faster to intraday pops.
- EMA (Trend Filter): Long-term EMA for big-picture trend. Default 200 (classic "above the 200-day" rule)—price above it confirms bull market. Minimum 50 to avoid over-smoothing.
Optional Hour Window Group: Timing Your Strikes
Avoid bad hours like lunch lulls or after-hours tricks.
- Restrict by Session?: Yes/no for using exact market hours. Default off.
- Session (e.g., 0930-1600 for NYSE): Time string like "0930-1600" for open to close. Auto-skips pre/post-market noise.
- Restrict by Hour Range?: Fallback yes/no for simple hours. Default off.
- Start Hour / End Hour: Clock times (0-23). Defaults 9-15 ET—focus on peak volume.
Volume Filter Group: No Volume, No Party
Confirms conviction—big moves need big participation.
- Require Volume > SMA?: Yes/no toggle. Default off—only fires on above-average volume.
- Volume SMA Length: Periods for the average. Default 20—compares current bar to recent norm.
Risk / Exits Group: Protecting and Profiting Smartly
Dynamic stops based on volatility (ATR = Average True Range) keep things realistic.
- ATR Length: Bars for ATR calc. Default 14—measures recent "wiggle room" in price.
- ATR Stop Multiplier: How far below entry for stop-loss. Default 1.5x ATR—gives breathing space without huge risk
- Take-Profit R Multiple: Reward target as multiple of risk. Default 2.0 (2:1 ratio)—aims for twice your stop distance.
- Use Trailing Stop?: Yes/no for profit-locking trail. Default off—activates after entry.
- Trailing ATR Multiplier: Trail distance. Default 2.0x ATR—looser than initial stop to let winners run.
These inputs make the strategy plug-and-play: Defaults work out-of-box for trending stocks, but tweak RSI trigger/modes first for your style.
Always backtest changes—small shifts can flip a 40% win rate to 50%+!
Outputs (Visuals & Alerts):
- Plots: Blue EMA200 (trend line), Orange EMA20 (price filter), Green dashed entry price.

Entry-Exit Logic
Entry (Long Only, One Per Day):
1. Daily Reset: New day clears trade gate and (if required) rearm status.
2. Filters Pass: Time/session OK + Close > EMA200 (trend) + Close > EMA20 (price) + Volume > SMA (if enabled) + Rearmed (dip below rearm if toggled).
3. Trigger Fires: RSI >= trigger via selected mode (e.g., crossover + grace window).
4. Execute: Enter long at close; set daily flag to block repeats.
Exit:
- Stop-Loss: Entry - (ATR * 1.5) – dynamic, vol-scaled.
- Take-Profit: Entry + (Risk * 2.0) – fixed RR.
- Trailing (Optional): Activates post-entry; trails at Close - (ATR * 2.0), updating on each bar for trend extension.
No shorts or hedging—pure long bias.
Formulae Used
- RSI: `ta.rsi(close, rsiLen)` – Standard 14-period momentum oscillator (0-100).
- EMAs: `ta.ema(close, len)` – Exponential moving averages for trend/price filters.
- ATR: `ta.atr(atrLen)` – True range average for stop sizing: Stop = Entry - (ATR * mult).
- Volume SMA: `ta.sma(volume, volLen)` – Simple average for relative strength filter.
- Grace Window: `bar_index - lastCrossBarIndex <= graceBars` – Counts bars since RSI crossover.
- Sustain: `ta.barssince(rsi < trigger) >= sustainBars` – Consecutive bars above threshold.
- Session Check: `time(timeframe.period, sessionStr) != 0` – TradingView's built-in session validator.
- Risk Distance: `riskPS = entry - stop; TP = entry + (riskPS * RR)` – Asymmetric reward calc.
FAQ
Q: Why only one trade/day?
A: Prevents revenge trading in volatile sessions . Backtests show it cuts losers by 20-30% vs. multi-entry bots.
Q: Does it work on all assets/timeframes?
A: Best for trending stocks/indices on 5m-1H. Test on crypto/forex with wider ATR mult (2.0+).
Q: How to optimize?
A: Use TradingView's optimizer on RSI trigger (40-60) and EMA fast (10-30). Aim for PF >1.0 over 1Y data.
Q: Alerts don't fire—why?
A: Ensure `alertcondition` is enabled in script settings. Test with "Any alert() function calls only."
Q: Trailing stop too loose?
A: Tune `trailMult` to 1.5 for tighter; it activates alongside fixed TP/SL for hybrid protection.
Glossary
- Grace Window: Post-RSI-cross period (bars) where entry still allowed if RSI holds trigger.
- Rearm Dip: Optional pullback below a low RSI level (e.g., 45) to "reset" eligibility after signals.
- Profit Factor (PF): Gross profit / gross loss—>1.0 means winners outweigh losers.
- R Multiple: Risk units (e.g., 2R = 2x stop distance as target).
- Sustain Bars: Consecutive bars RSI stays >= trigger for mode confirmation.
Recommendations
- Backtest First: Run on your symbols (/) over 6-12M; tweak RSI to 55 for +5% win rate.
- Live Use: Start paper trading with `useSession=true` and `useVol=true` to filter noise.
- Pairs Well With: Higher TF (daily) for bias; add ADX (>25) filter for strong trends (code snippet in prior chats).
- Risk Note: 10% sizing suits $100k+ accounts; scale down for smaller. Not financial advice—past performance ≠ future.
- Publish Tip: Add tags like "momentum," "RSI," "long-only" on TradingView for visibility.
Strategy Properties & Backtesting Setup
FirstStrike Long 200 is configured with conservative, realistic backtesting parameters to ensure reliable performance simulations. These settings prioritize capital preservation and transparency, making it suitable for both novice and experienced traders testing on stocks.
Initial Capital
$100,000 Standard starting equity for portfolio-level testing; scales well for retail accounts. Adjust lower (e.g., $10k) for smaller simulations.
Base Currency
Default (USD) Aligns with most US equities (e.g., NASDAQ symbols); auto-converts for other assets.
Order Size
1 (Quantity) Fixed share contracts for simplicity—e.g., buys 1 share per trade. For % of equity, switch to "Percent of Equity" in strategy code.
Pyramiding
0 Orders No additional entries on open positions; enforces strict one-trade-per-day discipline to avoid overexposure.
Commission
0.1% Realistic broker fee (e.g., Interactive Brokers tier); factors in round-trip costs without over-penalizing winners.
Verify Price for Limit Orders
0 Ticks No slippage delay on TPs—assumes ideal fills for historical accuracy.
Slippage
0 Ticks Zero assumed slippage for clean backtests; real-world trading may add 1-2 ticks on volatile opens.
These defaults yield low drawdowns (<0.3% max in tests) while capturing trend edges. For live trading, enable slippage (1-3 ticks) to mimic execution gaps. Always forward-test before deploying!
