Strategy Code Example - Risk Management

*** THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE OF STRATEGY RISK MANAGEMENT CODE IMPLEMENTATION ***

For my own future reference, and for anyone else who needs it.

Pine script strategy code can be confusing and awkward, so I finally sat down and had a little think about it and put something together that actually works (i think...)

Code is commented where I felt might be necessary (pretty much everything..) and covers:
  • Take Profit
  • Stop Loss
  • Trailing Stop
  • Trailing Stop Offset
...and details how to handle the input values for these in a way that allows them to be disabled if set to 0, without breaking the strategy.exit functionality or requiring a silly amount of statement nesting.

Also shows how to use functions (or variables/series) to execute trade entries and exits.

Cheers!

// === GENERAL INPUTS ===
// short ma
maFastSource   = input(defval = open, title = "Fast MA Source")
maFastLength   = input(defval = 14, title = "Fast MA Period", minval = 1)
// long ma
maSlowSource   = input(defval = open, title = "Slow MA Source")
maSlowLength   = input(defval = 21, title = "Slow MA Period", minval = 1)

// === STRATEGY RELATED INPUTS ===
tradeInvert     = input(defval = false, title = "Invert Trade Direction?")
// the risk management inputs
inpTakeProfit   = input(defval = 1000, title = "Take Profit", minval = 0)
inpStopLoss     = input(defval = 200, title = "Stop Loss", minval = 0)
inpTrailStop    = input(defval = 200, title = "Trailing Stop Loss", minval = 0)
inpTrailOffset  = input(defval = 0, title = "Trailing Stop Loss Offset", minval = 0)

// === RISK MANAGEMENT VALUE PREP ===
// if an input is less than 1, assuming not wanted so we assign 'na' value to disable it.
useTakeProfit   = inpTakeProfit  >= 1 ? inpTakeProfit  : na
useStopLoss     = inpStopLoss    >= 1 ? inpStopLoss    : na
useTrailStop    = inpTrailStop   >= 1 ? inpTrailStop   : na
useTrailOffset  = inpTrailOffset >= 1 ? inpTrailOffset : na

// === SERIES SETUP ===
/// a couple of ma's..
maFast = ema(maFastSource, maFastLength)
maSlow = ema(maSlowSource, maSlowLength)

// === PLOTTING ===
fast = plot(maFast, title = "Fast MA", color = green, linewidth = 2, style = line, transp = 50)
slow = plot(maSlow, title = "Slow MA", color = red, linewidth = 2, style = line, transp = 50)

// === LOGIC ===
// is fast ma above slow ma?
aboveBelow = maFast >= maSlow ? true : false
// are we inverting our trade direction?
tradeDirection = tradeInvert ? aboveBelow ? false : true : aboveBelow ? true : false

// === STRATEGY - LONG POSITION EXECUTION ===
enterLong() => not tradeDirection[1] and tradeDirection // functions can be used to wrap up and work out complex conditions
exitLong() => tradeDirection[1] and not tradeDirection
strategy.entry(id = "Long", long = true, when = enterLong()) // use function or simple condition to decide when to get in
strategy.close(id = "Long", when = exitLong()) // ...and when to get out
// === STRATEGY - SHORT POSITION EXECUTION ===
enterShort() => tradeDirection[1] and not tradeDirection
exitShort() => not tradeDirection[1] and tradeDirection
strategy.entry(id = "Short", long = false, when = enterShort())
strategy.close(id = "Short", when = exitShort())

// === STRATEGY RISK MANAGEMENT EXECUTION ===
// finally, make use of all the earlier values we got prepped
strategy.exit("Exit Long", from_entry = "Long", profit = useTakeProfit, loss = useStopLoss, trail_points = useTrailStop, trail_offset = useTrailOffset)
strategy.exit("Exit Short", from_entry = "Short", profit = useTakeProfit, loss = useStopLoss, trail_points = useTrailStop, trail_offset = useTrailOffset)
