Adaptive Alligator - Asymmetric MH (Entry Only)
Adaptive Alligator – Asymmetric Mexican Hat (Entry Only)
This strategy combines adaptive cycle detection (wavelet + autocorrelation), directional entropy, and a Mexican Hat filter to generate highly selective LONG entry signals. Exits are based solely on the Alligator structure. The system is designed to detect asymmetric, strong, and accelerating bullish phases while filtering out market noise.
1. Adaptive Cycle Detection: The strategy analyzes the median price using wavelet decomposition (Haar, Daubechies D4/D6, Symlet 4), wavelet detail energy, and autocorrelation. It also incorporates the ratio of short-term to long-term ATR volatility. Based on these components, it computes a dominant_cycle value, which dynamically controls the lengths of the Alligator lines (Jaw, Teeth, Lips). This adaptive behavior allows the Alligator to speed up during trending phases and slow down during noise or consolidation.
2. Directional Entropy: Entropy is measured separately for upward and downward movements within the selected lookback window. The entropy difference: e_diff = entropy_down - entropy_up represents the directional bias of the market. When e_diff > 0, the market shows an organized bullish pressure; when < 0, bearish dominance.
3. Mexican Hat Filter: The Mexican Hat (Ricker Wavelet) acts as a second-derivative filter, detecting local maxima in the acceleration of directional entropy. The filtered output (mh_out) is compared against an adaptive noise level computed as SMA(|mh_out|). A signal is considered strong only when: – mh_out exceeds the adaptive noise level, – mh_out is rising relative to the previous bar. This step is critical for eliminating false signals produced by random fluctuations.
4. Entry Logic: A LONG entry requires all three layers: (1) Alligator structure: Lips > Teeth > Jaw. (2) Directional entropy bias: e_diff > 0. (3) A strong, accelerating Mexican Hat signal confirmed by a user-defined number of bars. Once all conditions are satisfied, a buy_final entry is triggered.
5. Exit Logic: Exits are intentionally simple and rely solely on the Alligator: crossunder(lips, teeth) This clean separation ensures precise, adaptive entries and stable, consistent exits.
6. Visual Components: – Alligator lines: Jaw (blue), Teeth (red), Lips (green), plotted with their characteristic offsets. – Background coloring reflects signal strength: dark green (STRONG BUY), lime (acceleration), yellow (weak bias), transparent otherwise. – A dedicated panel displays e_diff (entropy difference), mh_out (Mexican Hat output), and the adaptive noise band.
7. Diagnostic Table: A compact diagnostic dashboard shows: – MH Value, – Noise Level, – MH Acceleration (YES/NO), – Signal Status (STRONG BUY / ACCELERATING / WEAK / BEARISH). It updates on the last bar, making it suitable for live monitoring.
8. Use Case: This strategy is highly selective and ideal as an entry module within trend-following systems. By combining wavelets, entropy, and adaptive noise modeling, it effectively filters out consolidation periods and focuses only on statistically significant bullish transitions. It can be integrated with various exit frameworks such as ATR stops, channel-based exits, range boxes, or trailing logic.
Trendanalyse
12M Return Strategy This strategy is based on the original Dual Momentum concept presented by Gary Antonacci in his book “Dual Momentum Investing.”
It implements the absolute momentum portion of the framework using a 12-month rate of change, combined with a moving-average filter for trend confirmation.
The script automatically adapts the lookback period depending on chart timeframe, ensuring the return calculation always represents approximately one year, whether you are on daily, weekly, or monthly charts.
How the Strategy Works
1. 12-Month Return Calculation
The core signal is the 12-month price return, computed as:
(Current Price ÷ Price from ~1 year ago) − 1
This return:
Plots as a histogram
Turns green when positive
Turns red when negative
The lookback adjusts automatically:
1D chart → 252 bars
1W chart → 52 bars
1M chart → 12 bars
Other timeframes → estimated to approximate 1 calendar year
2. Trend Filter (Moving Average of Return)
To smooth volatility and avoid noise, the strategy applies a moving average to the 12M return:
Default length: 12 periods
Plotted as a white line on the indicator panel
This becomes the benchmark used for crossovers.
3. Trade Signals (Long / Short / Cash)
Trades are generated using a simple crossover mechanism:
Bullish Signal (Go Long)
When:
12M Return crosses ABOVE its MA
Action:
Close short (if any)
Enter long
Bearish Signal (Go Short or Go Flat)
When:
12M Return crosses BELOW its MA
Action:
If shorting is enabled → Enter short
If shorting is disabled → Exit position and go to cash
Shorting can be enabled or disabled with a single input switch.
4. Position Sizing
The strategy uses:
Percent of Equity position sizing
You can specify the percentage of your portfolio to allocate (default 100%).
No leverage is required, but the strategy supports it if your account settings allow.
5. Visual Signals
To improve clarity, the strategy marks signals directly on the indicator panel:
Green Up Arrows: return > MA
Red Down Arrows: return < MA
A status label shows the current mode:
LONG
SHORT
CASH
6. Backtest-Ready
This script is built as a full TradingView strategy, not just an indicator.
This means you can:
Run complete backtests
View performance metrics
Compare long-only vs long/short behavior
Adjust inputs to tune the system
It provides a clean, rule-driven interpretation of the classic absolute momentum approach.
Inspired By: Gary Antonacci – Dual Momentum Investing
This script reflects the absolute momentum side of Antonacci’s original research:
Uses 12-month momentum (the most statistically validated lookback)
Applies a trend-following overlay to control downside risk
Recreates the classic signal structure used in academic studies
It is a simplified, transparent version intended for practical use and educational clarity.

Robrechtian Long-Medium Breakout Trend SystemRobrechtian Long–Medium-Term Breakout Trend System
A professional, rule-based trend-following strategy designed to capture large, sustained price movements using pure price action and breakouts.
This system follows long-established trend-following philosophy: no prediction, no volatility targeting, and no profit targets. Only disciplined entries, position additions, and exits driven entirely by trend structure.
Core Principles
Breakout-driven entries: Initial positions are taken only when price breaks above/below the 80-day Donchian channel, confirming a long–medium-term trend shift.
Short-term confirmation: Breakouts must also exceed the 20-day channel, reducing false positives.
Trend-direction filter: A 50-day moving average slope filter ensures alignment with the broader trend.
Explosive bar filter: Entries avoid excessively large, single-candle expansions (>2.5× ATR(20)) to prevent chasing exhaustion spikes.
Pyramiding into strength: Additional units are added only when price makes fresh 20-day breakouts in the direction of the trend. No scaling out. No adding on dips.
Exit only on trend violation: Positions are closed exclusively when price breaks the opposite 80-day channel. This preserves unlimited upside while enforcing disciplined exits.
Pure trend philosophy: No volatility targeting, no smoothing, no discretionary overrides, no optimization for short-term performance.
Intended Use
This system is designed primarily for diversified futures portfolios, where diversification across dozens of globally liquid markets creates robustness and stability. However, it may also be used on individual assets for educational and analytical purposes.
The system embraces the core trend-following logic:
Small losses, big winners, and unlimited upside when trends persist.
⚠️ WARNINGS / DISCLAIMERS
⚠️ Warning 1 — This strategy is not optimized for single stocks
The Robrechtian Trend System is designed for multi-asset futures portfolios, not single equities.
Performance on individual tickers may vary greatly due to lack of diversification.
⚠️ Warning 2 — Trend following includes substantial drawdowns
Deep drawdowns are a normal and expected feature of all long-term trend-following systems.
The strategy does not attempt to smooth returns or manage volatility.
If you seek steady, low-volatility equity curves, this system is not suitable.
⚠️ Warning 3 — No volatility targeting or risk smoothing
This system intentionally avoids volatility-based position sizing.
Trades may experience larger fluctuations than systems using risk parity or vol targeting.
⚠️ Warning 4 — Not financial advice
This script is for educational and research purposes only.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Use at your own risk.
⚠️ Warning 5 — TradingView backtests have known limitations
TradingView does not simulate:
futures contract roll logic
slippage
real bid/ask spreads
liquidity conditions
limit-up/limit-down behavior
Results may vary from live market execution.
Triple EMA + RSI + ATRThis comprehensive trading system combines triple EMA alignment, RSI momentum filtering, and dynamic ATR-based risk management.

Strategy: HMA 50 + Supertrend SniperHMA 50 + Supertrend Confluence Strategy (Trend Following with Noise Filtering)
Description:
Introduction and Concept This strategy is designed to solve a common problem in trend-following trading: Lag vs. False Signals. Standard Moving Averages often lag too much, while price action indicators can generate false signals during choppy markets. This script combines the speed of the Hull Moving Average (HMA) with the volatility-based filtering of the Supertrend indicator to create a robust "Confluence System."
The primary goal of this script is not just to overlay two indicators, but to enforce a strict rule where a trade is only taken when Momentum (HMA) and Volatility Direction (Supertrend) are in perfect agreement.
Why this combination? (The Logic Behind the Mashup)
Hull Moving Average (HMA 50): We use the HMA because it significantly reduces lag compared to SMA or EMA by using weighted calculations. It acts as our primary Trend Direction detector. However, HMA can be too sensitive and "whipsaw" during sideways markets.
Supertrend (ATR-based): We use the Supertrend (Factor 3.0, Period 10) as our Volatility Filter. It uses Average True Range (ATR) to determine the significant trend boundary.
How it Works (Methodology) The strategy uses a boolean logic system to filter out low-quality trades:
Bullish Confluence: The HMA must be rising (Slope > 0) AND the Close Price must be above the Supertrend line (Uptrend).
Bearish Confluence: The HMA must be falling (Slope < 0) AND the Close Price must be below the Supertrend line (Downtrend).
The "Choppy Zone" (Noise Filter): This is a unique feature of this script. If the HMA indicates one direction (e.g., Rising) but the Supertrend indicates the opposite (e.g., Downtrend), the market is considered "Choppy" or indecisive. In this state, the script paints the candles or HMA line Gray and exits all positions (optional setting) to preserve capital.
Visual Guide & Signals To make the script easy to interpret for traders who do not read Pine Script, I have implemented specific visual cues:
Green Cross (+): Indicates a LONG entry signal. Both HMA and Supertrend align bullishly.
Red Cross (X): Indicates a SHORT entry signal. Both HMA and Supertrend align bearishly.
Thick Line (HMA): The main line changes color based on the trend.
Green: Bullish Confluence.
Red: Bearish Confluence.
Gray: Divergence/Choppy (No Trade Zone).
Thin Step Line: This is the Supertrend line, serving as your dynamic Trailing Stop Loss.
Strategy Settings
HMA Length: Default is 50 (Mid-term trend).
ATR Factor/Period: Default is 3.0/10 (Standard for trend catching).
Exit on Choppy: A toggle switch allowing users to decide whether to hold through noise or exit immediately when indicators disagree.
Risk Warning This strategy performs best in trending markets (Forex, Crypto, Indices). Like all trend-following systems, it may experience drawdown during prolonged accumulation/distribution phases. Please backtest with your specific asset before using it with real capital.
QQQ Quant Power STRATEGY v13.3 (Ribbon + TQQQ Specs)1. The Quant Engine (Data Processing)
Weighted Scoring: It assigns specific weights to stocks (e.g., NVDA gets 8.5% weight, TXN gets 1.0%).
Z-Score Pressure: It calculates how "unusual" the current buying/selling pressure is compared to the average (Standard Deviation).
Alignment Bonus: It boosts the "Conviction Score" if Mega Caps (Top 8) and Large Caps (Next 12) are moving in the same direction.
2. The Dashboard (Mission Control)
The dashboard gives you an X-Ray view of the market:
Main Status: Tells you if the market is BULLISH, BEARISH, or CHOP (Sit Out).
Conviction %: A probability score (0-99%). Higher = Safer trade.
Breadth: Counts how many of the top 20 stocks are above their EMA.
Chop Logic: If Breadth is mixed (between 6 and 14 stocks above EMA), it declares "CHOP" and blocks trades.
Mega/Large Net: Shows the net buying/selling pressure for each group.
3. Visuals
Pressure Line: The line on the chart isn't just a Moving Average; it's the Net Pressure of the 20 stocks pushing price up or down.
Conviction Ribbon: The squares at the bottom of the screen.
🟩 Green: High Probability Long (>77%).
🟥 Red: High Probability Short (>77%).
⬜ Gray: Low Conviction / Holding.
4. Strategy Logic (Automated Trading)
Entry: Enters when the "Basket" of stocks is aligned (Bull/Bear Pressure) AND the Conviction Score is high (>77%).
Exit: Closes the trade if Conviction drops (Signal fades) or hits a Hard Stop Loss.
Time Filters: Includes strict trading windows (e.g., No trading during lunch 12-1pm, closes all positions on Friday).
Summary
This is a Market Breadth & Momentum Strategy. It assumes that QQQ cannot sustain a trend unless its underlying components (NVDA, AAPL, etc.) are pushing it. It filters out "fake moves" where QQQ moves but the components don't support it.
Session Opening Range Breakout (ORBO)This strategy automates a classic Opening Range Breakout (ORBO) approach: it builds a price range for the first minutes after the market opens, then looks for strong breakouts above or below that range to catch early directional moves.
Concept
The idea behind ORBO is simple:
The first minutes after the session open are often highly informative.
Price forms an “opening range” that acts as a mini support/resistance zone.
A clean breakout beyond this zone can lead to high-momentum moves.
This script turns that logic into a fully backtestable strategy in TradingView.
How the strategy works
Opening Range Session
Default session: 09:30–09:50 (exchange time)
During this window, the script tracks:
orHigh → highest high within the session
orLow → lowest low within the session
This forms your Opening Range for the day.
Breakout Logic (after the window ends)
Once the defined session ends:
Long Entry:
If the close crosses above the Opening Range High (orHigh),
→ strategy.entry("OR Long", strategy.long) is triggered.
Short Entry:
If the close crosses below the Opening Range Low (orLow),
→ strategy.entry("OR Short", strategy.short) is triggered.
Only one opening range per day is considered, which keeps the logic clean and easy to interpret.
Daily Reset
At the start of a new trading day, the script resets:
orHigh := na
orLow := na
A fresh Opening Range is then built using the next session’s 09:30–09:50 candles.
This ensures entries are always based on today’s structure, not yesterday’s.
Visuals & Inputs
Inputs:
Opening range session → default: "0930-0950"
Show OR levels → toggle visibility of OR High / Low lines
Fill range body → optional shaded zone between OR High and OR Low
Chart visuals:
A green line marks the Opening Range High.
A red line marks the Opening Range Low.
Optional yellow fill highlights the entire OR zone.
Background shading during the session shows when the range is currently being built.
These visuals make it easy to see:
Where the OR sits relative to current price
How clean / noisy the breakout was
How often price respects or rejects the opening zone

AliceTears GridAliceTears Grid is a customizable Mean Reversion system designed to capitalize on market volatility during specific trading sessions. Unlike standard grid bots that place blind limit orders, this strategy establishes a daily or session-based "Baseline" and looks for price over-extensions to fade the move back to the mean.
This strategy is best suited for ranging markets (sideways accumulation) or specific forex sessions (e.g., Asian Session or NY/London overlap) where price tends to revert to the opening price.
🛠 How It Works
1. The Baseline & Grid Generation At the start of every session (or the daily open), the script records the Open price. It then projects visual grid lines above and below this price based on your Step % input.
Example: If the Open is $100 and Step is 1%, lines are drawn at $101, $102, $99, $98, etc.
2. Entry Logic: Reversal Mode This script features a "Reversal Mode" (enabled by default) to filter out "falling knives."
Standard Grid: Buys immediately when price touches the line.
AliceTears Logic: Waits for the price to breach a grid level and then close back inside towards the mean. This confirms a potential rejection of that level before entering.
3. Exit Logic
Target Profit: The primary target is the previous grid level (Mean Reversion).
Trailing Stop: If the price continues moving in your favor, a trailing stop activates to maximize the run.
Stop Loss: A manual percentage-based stop loss is available to prevent deep drawdowns in trending markets.
⚙️ Key Features
Visual Grid: Automatically draws entry levels on the chart for the current session, helping you visualize where the "math" is waiting for price.
Timezone & Session Control: Includes a custom Timezone Offset tool. You can trade specific hours (e.g., 09:30–16:00) regardless of your chart's UTC setting.
Grid Management: Independent logic for Long and Short grids with pyramiding capabilities.
Safety Filters: Options to force-close trades at the end of the session to avoid overnight gaps.
⚠️ Risk Warning
Please Read Before Using: This is a Counter-Trend / Grid Strategy.
Pros: High win rate in sideways/ranging markets.
Cons: In strong trending markets (parabolic pumps or crashes), this strategy will add to losing positions ("catch a falling knife").
Recommendation: Always use the Stop Loss and Date Filter inputs. Do not run this on highly volatile assets without strict risk management parameters.
Settings Guide
Entry Reversal Mode: Keep checked for safer entries. Uncheck for aggressive limit-order style execution.
Grid Step (%): The distance between lines. For Forex, use lower values (0.1% - 0.5%). For Crypto, use higher values (1.0% - 3.0%).
UTC Offset: Adjust this to align the Session Hours with your target market (e.g., -5 for New York).

The Oracle: Dip & Top Adaptive Sniper [Hakan Yorganci]█ OVERVIEW
The Oracle: Dip & Top Adaptive Sniper is a precision-focused trend trading strategy designed to solve the biggest problem in swing trading: Timing.
Most trend-following strategies chase price ("FOMO"), buying when the asset is already overextended. The Oracle takes a different approach. It adopts a "Sniper" mentality: it identifies a strong macro trend but patiently waits for a Mean Reversion (pullback) to execute an entry at a discounted price.
By combining the structural strength of Moving Averages (SMA 50/200) with the momentum precision of RSI and the volatility filtering of ADX, this script filters out noise and targets high-probability setups.
█ HOW IT WORKS
This strategy operates on a strictly algorithmic protocol known as "The Yorganci Protocol," which involves three distinct phases: Filter, Target, and Execute.
1. The Macro Filter (Trend Identification)
* SMA 200 Rule: By default, the strategy only scans for buy signals when the price is trading above the 200-period Simple Moving Average. This ensures we are always trading in the direction of the long-term bull market.
* Adaptive Switch: A new feature allows users to toggle the Only Buy Above SMA 200? filter OFF. This enables the strategy to hunt for oversold bounces (dead cat bounces) even during bearish or neutral market structures.
2. The Volatility Filter (ADX Integration)
* Sideways Protection: One of the main weaknesses of moving average strategies is "whipsaw" losses during choppy, ranging markets.
* Solution: The Oracle utilizes the ADX (Average Directional Index). It will BLOCK any trade entry if the ADX is below the threshold (Default: 20). This ensures capital is only deployed when a genuine trend is present.
3. The Sniper Entry (Buying the Dip)
* Instead of buying on breakout strength (e.g., RSI > 60), The Oracle waits for the RSI Moving Average to dip into the "Value Zone" (Default: 45) and cross back up. This technique allows for tighter stops and higher Risk/Reward ratios compared to traditional breakout systems.
█ EXIT STRATEGY
The Oracle employs a dynamic dual-exit mechanism to maximize gains and protect capital:
* Take Profit (The Peak): The strategy monitors RSI heat. When the RSI Moving Average breaches the Overbought Threshold (Default: 75), it signals a "Take Profit", securing gains near the local top before a potential reversal.
* Stop Loss (Trend Invalidated): If the market structure fails and the price closes below the 50-period SMA, the position is immediately closed to prevent deep drawdowns.
█ SETTINGS & CONFIGURATION
* Moving Averages: Fully customizable lengths for Support (SMA 50) and Trend (SMA 200).
* Trend Filter: Checkbox to enable/disable the "Bull Market Only" rule.
* RSI Thresholds:
* Sniper Buy Level: Adjustable (Default: 45). Lower values = Deeper dips, fewer trades.
* Peak Sell Level: Adjustable (Default: 75). Higher values = Longer holds, potentially higher profit.
* ADX Filter: Checkbox to enable/disable volatility filtering.
█ BEST PRACTICES
* Timeframe: Designed primarily for 4H (4-Hour) charts for swing trading. It can also be used on 1H for more frequent signals.
* Assets: Highly effective on trending assets such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and high-volume Altcoins.
* Risk Warning: This strategy is designed for "Long Only" spot or leverage trading. Always use proper risk management.
█ CREDITS
* Original Concept: Inspired by the foundational work of Murat Besiroglu (@muratkbesiroglu).
* Algorithm Development & Enhancements: Developed by Hakan Yorganci (@hknyrgnc).
* Modifications include: Integration of ADX filters, Mean Reversion entry logic (RSI Dip), and Dynamic Peak Profit taking.
Adaptive Trend Navigator [ATH Filter & Risk Engine]Description:
This strategy implements a systematic Trend Following approach designed to capture major moves while actively protecting capital during severe bear markets. It combines a classic Moving Average "Fan" logic with two advanced risk management layers: a 4-Stage Dynamic Stop Loss and a macro-economic "Circuit Breaker" filter.
Core Concepts:
1. Trend Identification (Entry Logic) The script uses a cascade of Simple Moving Averages (SMA 25, 50, 100, 200) to identify the maturity of a trend.
Entries are triggered by specific crossovers (e.g., SMA 25 crossing SMA 50) or by breaking above the previous trade's high ("High-Water Mark" Re-Entry).
2. The "Circuit Breaker" (Crash Protection) To prevent trading during historical market collapses (like 2000 or 2008), the strategy monitors the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) as a global benchmark:
Normal Regime: If the market is within 20% of its All-Time High, the strategy operates normally.
Crisis Regime: If the QQQ falls more than 20% from its ATH, the "Circuit Breaker" activates (Visualized by a Red Background).
Recovery Rule: In a Crisis Regime, new long positions are blocked unless the QQQ reclaims its SMA 200. This filters out "bull traps" in secular bear markets.
3. 4-Stage Risk Engine (Exit Logic) Once in a trade, the risk management adapts to the position's performance:
Stage 1: Fixed initial Stop Loss (default 10%) for breathing room.
Stage 2: Moves to Break-Even area once the price rises 12%.
Stage 3: Tightens to a trailing stop (8%) after 25% profit.
Stage 4: Maximizes gains with a tight trailing stop (5%) during parabolic moves (>40% profit).
Visual Guide:
SMAs: 25/50/100/200 period lines for trend visualization.
Red Background: Indicates the "Crisis Regime" where trading is halted due to broad market weakness.
Blue Background: Indicates a "Recovery Phase" (Crisis is active, but market is above SMA 200).
Red Line: Shows the dynamic Stop Loss level for active positions.
Settings: All parameters (SMA lengths, Drawdown threshold, Risk Stages) are fully customizable. The QQQ benchmark ticker can also be changed to SPY or other indices depending on the asset class traded.
Dynamic SMA Trend System [Multi-Stage Risk Engine]Description:
This script implements a robust Trend Following strategy based on a multiple Simple Moving Average (SMA) crossover logic (25, 50, 100, 200). What sets this strategy apart is its advanced "4-Stage Risk Engine" and a smart "High-Water Mark" Re-Entry system, designed to protect profits during parabolic moves while filtering out chop during sideways markets.
How it works:
The strategy operates on three core pillars: Trend Identification, Dynamic Risk Management, and Momentum Re-Entry.
1. Entry Logic (Trend Identification) The script looks for crossovers at different trend stages to capture early reversals as well as established trends:
Short-Term: SMA 25 crosses over SMA 50.
Mid-Term: SMA 50 crosses over SMA 100.
Macro-Trend: SMA 100 crosses over SMA 200.
2. The 4-Stage Risk Engine (Dynamic Stop Loss) Instead of a static Stop Loss, this strategy uses a progressive system that adapts as the price increases:
Stage 1 (Protection): Starts with a fixed Stop Loss (default -10%) to give the trade room to breathe.
Stage 2 (Break-Even): Once the price rises by 12%, the Stop is moved to trailing mode (10% distance), effectively securing a near break-even state.
Stage 3 (Profit Locking): At 25% profit, the trailing stop tightens to 8% to lock in gains.
Stage 4 (Parabolic Mode): At 40% profit, the trailing stop tightens further to 5% to capture the peak of parabolic moves.
3. Dual Exit Mechanism The strategy exits a position if EITHER of the following happens:
Stop Loss Hit: Price falls below the dynamic red line (Risk Engine).
Dead Cross: The trend structure breaks (e.g., SMA 25 crosses under SMA 50), signaling a momentum loss even if the Stop Loss wasn't hit.
4. "High-Water Mark" Re-Entry To avoid "whipsaws" in choppy markets, the script does not re-enter immediately after a stop-out.
It marks the highest price of the previous trade (Green Dotted Line).
A Re-Entry only occurs if the price breaks above this previous high (showing renewed strength) AND the long-term trend is bullish (Price > SMA 200).
Visuals:
SMAs: 25 (Yellow), 50 (Orange), 100 (Blue), 200 (White).
Red Line: Visualizes the dynamic Stop Loss level.
Green Dots: Visualizes the target price needed for a valid re-entry.
Settings: All parameters (SMA lengths, Stop Loss percentages, Staging triggers) are fully customizable in the settings menu to fit different assets (Crypto, Stocks, Forex) and timeframes.

Volatile instruments that still respect market structure:
Bitcoin, Ethereum, Gold (XAUUSD), high-volatility Forex pairs (e.g., GBPJPY), indices with clean ranges.
Strategy Type:
Volatility-Adaptive Trend Following + Impulse Detection.
It hunts for genuine expansion out of ranges, not tiny mean-reversion nibbles.
Key Feature:
Renko Emulation on time-based candles.
We mathematically model Renko Bricks and overlay them on your standard chart to define:
“Equilibrium” zones (inside the brick structure)
“Breakout / impulse” zones (when price AND the impulse line depart from the bricks)
Repainting:
Designed to be non-repainting on closed candles.
All RM execution logic uses confirmed historical data (no future bars, no security() lookahead). Intrabar flicker during formation is allowed, but once a bar closes the engine’s decisions are stable.
Core Toggles & Filters:
Enable Longs and Shorts independently
Optional Weekend filter (block trades on Saturday/Sunday)
Per-module toggles: Stop Loss, Trailing Stop, Staged Take Profits, AATS, RSIS
3. Detailed Report: How It Works
A. The Strategy Logic: Superior RBR
Superior RBR builds its entry signal from multiple mathematical layers working together.
1) Adaptive Lookback (Volatility Normalization)
Instead of a fixed 100-bar or 200-bar range, the script:
Computes ATR-based volatility over a user-defined period.
Normalizes that volatility relative to its recent min/max.
Maps the normalized value into a dynamic lookback window between a minimum and maximum (e.g., 4 to 100 bars).
High Volatility:
The lookback shrinks, so the system reacts faster to explosive moves.
Low Volatility:
The lookback expands, so the system sees a “bigger picture” and filters out chop.
All the core “Range High/Low” and “Range Close High/Low” boundaries are built on top of this adaptive window.
2) Range Construction & Quick Ranges
The engine constructs several nested ranges:
Outer Range:
rangeHighFinal – dynamic highest high
rangeLowFinal – dynamic lowest low
Inner Close Range:
rangeCloseHighFinal – highest close
rangeCloseLowFinal – lowest close
Quick Ranges:
“Half-length” variants of those, used to detect more responsive changes in structure and volatility.
These ranges define:
The macro box price is trading inside
Shorter-term “pressure zones” where price is coiling before expansion
3) Renko Emulation (The Bricks)
Rather than using the Renko chart type (which discards time), this script emulates Renko behavior on your normal candles:
A “brick size” is defined either:
As a standard percentage move, or
As a volatility-driven (ATR) brick, optionally inhibited by a minimum standard size
The engine tracks a base value and derives:
brickUpper – top of the emulated brick
brickLower – bottom of the emulated brick
When price moves sufficiently beyond those levels, the brick “shifts”, and the directional memory (renkoDir) updates:
renkoDir = +2 when bricks are advancing upward
renkoDir = -2 when bricks are stepping downward
You can think of this as a synthetic Renko tape overlaid on time-based candles:
Inside the brick: equilibrium / consolidation
Breaking away from the brick: momentum / expansion
4) Impulse Tracking with Laguerre Filters
The script uses multiple Laguerre Filters to smooth price and brick-derived data without traditional lag.
Key filters include:
LagF_1 / LagF_W: Based on brick upper/lower baselines
LagF_Q: Based on HLCC4 (high + low + 2×close)/4
LagF_Y / LagF_P: Complex averages combining brick structures and range averages
LagF_V (Primary Impulse Line):
A smooth, high-level impulse line derived from a blend of the above plus the outer ranges
Conceptually:
When the impulse line pushes away from the brick structure and continues in one direction, an impulse move is underway.
When its direction flips and begins to roll over, the impulse is fading, hinting at mean reversion back into the range.
5) Fib-Based Structure & Swaps
The system also layers in Fib levels derived from the adaptive ranges:
Standard levels (12%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61%, 76.8%, 88%) from the main range
A secondary “swap” set derived from close-range dynamics (fib12Swap, fib23Swap, etc.)
These Fibs are used to:
Bucket price into structural zones (below 12, between 23–38, etc.)
Detect breakouts when price and Laguerre move beyond key Fib thresholds
Drive zSwap logic (where a secondary Fib set becomes the active structure once certain conditions are met)
6) Adaptive SuperTrend with K-Means-Style Volatility Clustering
Under the hood, the script uses a small k-means-style clustering routine on ATR:
ATR is measured over a fixed period
The range of ATR values is split into Low, Medium, High volatility centroids
Current ATR is assigned to the nearest centroid (cluster)
From that, a SuperTrend variant (STK) is computed with dynamic sensitivity:
In quiet markets, SuperTrend can afford to be tighter
In wild markets, it widens appropriately to avoid constant whipsaw
This SuperTrend-based oscillator (LagF_K and its signals) is then combined with the brick and Laguerre stack to confirm valid trend regimes.
7) Final Baseline Signals (+2 / -2)
The “brain” of Superior RBR lives in the Baseline & Signal Generation block:
Two composite signals are built: B1 and B2:
They combine:
Fib breakouts
Renko direction (renkoDir)
Expansion direction (expansionQuickDir)
Multiple Laguerre alignments (LagF_Q, LagF_W, LagF_Y, LagF_Z, LagF_P, LagF_V)
They also factor in whether Fib structures are expanding or contracting.
A user toggle selects the “Baseline” signal:
finalSig = B2 (default) or B1 (alternate baseline)
finalSig is then filtered through the RM state machine and only when everything aligns, we emit:
+2 = Long / Buy signal
-2 = Short / Sell signal
0 = No new trade
Those +2 / -2 values are what feed the Risk Management Engine.
B. The Risk Management (RM) Engine
This script features the Signal Lynx Risk Management Engine, a proprietary state machine built to separate Signal from Execution.
Instead of firing orders directly on indicator conditions, we:
Convert the raw signal into a clean integer (Fin = +2 / -2 / 0)
Feed it into a Trade State Machine that understands:
Are we flat?
Are we in a long or short?
Are we in a closing sequence?
Should we permit re-entry now or wait?
Logic Injection / Template Concept:
The RM engine expects a simple integer:
+2 → Buy
-2 → Sell
Everything else (0) is “no new trade”
This makes the script a template:
You can remove the Superior RBR block
Drop in your own logic (RSI, MACD, price action, etc.)
As long as you output +2 or -2 into the same signal channel, the RM engine can drive all exits and state transitions.
Aggressive vs Conservative Modes:
The input AgressiveRM (Aggressive RM) governs how we interpret signals:
Conservative Mode (Aggressive RM = false):
Uses a more filtered internal signal (AF) to open trades
Effectively waits for a clean trend flip / confirmation before new entries
Minimizes whipsaw at the cost of fewer trades
Aggressive Mode (Aggressive RM = true):
Reacts directly to the fresh alert (AO) pulses
Allows faster re-entries in the same direction after RM-based exits
Still respects your pyramiding setting; this script ships with pyramiding = 0 by default, so it will not stack multiple positions unless you change that parameter in the strategy() call.
The state machine enforces discipline on top of your signal logic, reducing double-fires and signal spam.
C. Advanced Exit Protocols (Layered Defense)
The exit side is where this template really shines. Instead of a single “take profit or stop loss,” it uses multiple, cooperating layers.
1) Hard Stop Loss
A classic percentage-based Stop Loss (SL) relative to the entry price.
Acts as a final “catastrophic protection” layer for unexpected moves.
2) Standard Trailing Stop
A percentage-based Trailing Stop (TS) that:
Activates only after price has moved a certain percentage in your favor (tsActivation)
Then trails price by a configurable percentage (ts)
This is a straightforward, battle-tested trailing mechanism.
3) Staged Take Profits (Three Levels)
The script supports three staged Take Profit levels (TP1, TP2, TP3):
Each stage has:
Activation percentage (how far price must move in your favor)
Trailing amount for that stage
Position percentage to close
Example setup:
TP1:
Activate at +10%
Trailing 5%
Close 10% of the position
TP2:
Activate at +20%
Trailing 10%
Close another 10%
TP3:
Activate at +30%
Trailing 5%
Close the remaining 80% (“runner”)
You can tailor these quantities for partial scaling out vs. letting a core position ride.
4) Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS)
AATS is a sophisticated volatility- and structure-aware stop:
Uses Hirashima Sugita style levels (HSRS) to model “floors” and “ceilings” of price:
Dungeon → Lower floors → Mid → Upper floors → Penthouse
These levels classify where current price sits within a long-term distribution.
Combines HSRS with Bollinger-style envelopes and EMAs to determine:
Is price extended far into the upper structure?
Is it compressed near the lower ranges?
From this, it computes an adaptive factor that controls how tight or loose the trailing level (aATS / bATS) should be:
High Volatility / Penthouse areas:
Stop loosens to avoid getting wicked out by inevitable spikes.
Low Volatility / compressed structure:
Stop tightens to lock in and protect profit.
AATS is designed to be the “smart last line” that responds to context instead of a single fixed percentage.
5) RSI-Style Stop (RSIS)
On top of AATS, the script includes a RSI-like regime filter:
A McGinley Dynamic mean of price plus ATR bands creates a dynamic channel.
Crosses above the top band and below the lower band change a directional state.
When enabled (UseRSIS):
RSIS can confirm or veto AATS closes:
For longs: A shift to bearish RSIS can force exits sooner.
For shorts: A shift to bullish RSIS can do the same.
This extra layer helps avoid over-reactive stops in strong trends while still respecting a regime change when it happens.
D. Repainting Protection
Many strategies look incredible in the Strategy Tester but fail in live trading because they rely on intrabar values or future-knowledge functions.
This template is built with closed-candle realism in mind:
The Risk Management logic explicitly uses previous bar data (open , high , low , close ) for the key decisions on:
Trailing stop updates
TP triggers
SL hits
RM state transitions
No security() lookahead or future-bar access is used.
This means:
Backtest behavior is designed to match what you can actually get with TradingView alerts and live automation.
Signals may “flicker” intrabar while the candle is forming (as with any strategy), but on closed candles, the RM decisions are stable and non-repainting.
4. For Developers & Modders
We strongly encourage you to mod this script.
To plug your own strategy into the RM engine:
Look for the section titled:
// BASELINE & SIGNAL GENERATION
You will see composite logic building B1 and B2, and then selecting:
baseSig = B2
altSig = B1
finalSig = sigSwap ? baseSig : altSig
You can replace the content used to generate baseSig / altSig with your own logic, for example:
RSI crosses
MACD histogram flips
Candle pattern detectors
External condition flags
Requirements are simple:
Your final logic must output:
2 → Buy signal
-2 → Sell signal
0 → No new trade
That output flows into the RM engine via finalSig → AlertOpen → state machine → Fin.
Once you wire your signals into finalSig, the entire Risk Management system (Stops, TPs, AATS, RSIS, re-entry logic, weekend filters, long/short toggles) becomes available for your custom strategy without re-inventing the wheel.
This makes Superior RBR not just a strategy, but a reference architecture for serious Pine dev work.

Super-AO with Risk Management Strategy Template - 11-29-25Super-AO Strategy with Advanced Risk Management Template
Signal Lynx | Free Scripts supporting Automation for the Night-Shift Nation 🌙
1. Overview
Welcome to the Super-AO Strategy. This is more than just a buy/sell indicator; it is a complete, open-source Risk Management (RM) Template designed for the Pine Script community.
At its core, this script implements a robust swing-trading strategy combining the SuperTrend (for macro direction) and the Awesome Oscillator (for momentum). However, the real power lies under the hood: a custom-built Risk Management Engine that handles trade states, prevents repainting, and manages complex exit conditions like Staged Take Profits and Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stops (AATS).
We are releasing this code to help traders transition from simple indicators to professional-grade strategy structures.
2. Quick Action Guide (TL;DR)
Best Timeframe: 4 Hours (H4) and above. Designed for Swing Trading.
Best Assets: "Well-behaved" assets with clear liquidity (Major Forex pairs, BTC, ETH, Indices).
Strategy Type: Trend Following + Momentum Confirmation.
Key Feature: The Risk Management Engine is modular. You can strip out the "Super-AO" logic and insert your own strategy logic into the template easily.
Repainting: Strictly Non-Repainting. The engine calculates logic based on confirmed candle closes.
3. Detailed Report: How It Works
A. The Strategy Logic: Super-AO
The entry logic is based on the convergence of two classic indicators:
SuperTrend: Determines the overall trend bias (Green/Red).
Awesome Oscillator (AO): Measures market momentum.
The Signal:
LONG (+2): SuperTrend is Green AND AO is above the Zero Line AND AO is Rising.
SHORT (-2): SuperTrend is Red AND AO is below the Zero Line AND AO is Falling.
By requiring momentum to agree with the trend, this system filters out many false signals found in ranging markets.
B. The Risk Management (RM) Engine
This script features a proprietary State Machine designed by Signal Lynx. Unlike standard strategies that simply fire orders, this engine separates the Signal from the Execution.
Logic Injection: The engine listens for a specific integer signal: +2 (Buy) or -2 (Sell). This makes the code a Template. You can delete the Super-AO section, write your own logic, and simply pass a +2 or -2 to the RM_EngineInput variable. The engine handles the rest.
Trade States: The engine tracks the state of the trade (Entry, In-Trade, Exiting) to prevent signal spamming.
Aggressive vs. Conservative:
Conservative Mode: Waits for a full trend reversal before taking a new trade.
Aggressive Mode: Allows for re-entries if the trend is strong and valid conditions present themselves again (Pyramiding Type 1).
C. Advanced Exit Protocols
The strategy does not rely on a single exit point. It employs a "Layered Defense" approach:
Hard Stop Loss: A fixed percentage safety net.
Staged Take Profits (Scaling Out): The script allows you to set 3 distinct Take Profit levels. For example, you can close 10% of your position at TP1, 10% at TP2, and let the remaining 80% ride the trend.
Trailing Stop: A standard percentage-based trailer.
Advanced Adaptive Trailing Stop (AATS): This is a highly sophisticated volatility stop. It calculates market structure using Hirashima Sugita (HSRS) levels and Bollinger Bands to determine the "floor" and "ceiling" of price action.
If volatility is high: The stop loosens to prevent wicking out.
If volatility is low: The stop tightens to protect profit.
D. Repainting Protection
Many Pine Script strategies look great in backtesting but fail in live trading because they rely on "real-time" price data that disappears when the candle closes.
This Risk Management engine explicitly pulls data from the previous candle close (close , high , low ) for its calculations. This ensures that the backtest results you see match the reality of live execution.
4. For Developers & Modders
We encourage you to tear this code apart!
Look for the section titled // Super-AO Strategy Logic.
Replace that block with your own RSI, MACD, or Price Action logic.
Ensure your logic outputs a 2 for Buy and -2 for Sell.
Connect it to RM_EngineInput.
You now have a fully functioning Risk Management system for your custom strategy.

Mean-Reversion with CooldownThis strategy requires no indicators or fundamental analysis. It is designed for longer-term positions and works especially well on unleveraged instruments with strong long-term upward trends, such as precious metals. Feel free to experiment with different timeframes — I’ve found that 1-hour charts work particularly well for cryptocurrencies.
The idea is to filter out ongoing bear phases as effectively as possible and capitalize on long-term bull runs.
The script implements an idea that came to me in a state of complete sleep deprivation: open a random long position with a fixed take-profit (TP) and a tight stop-loss (SL).
If the TP is hit — great, we simply try again.
If the SL is triggered — too bad, we pause for a while and then try again.
## Cooldown (Waiting) Mechanism
The waiting mechanism is simple: the more consecutive SL hits we get, the longer we wait before opening the next trade. The waiting time is measured in closed candles, and thus depends on the timeframe you are using.
## Two cooldown calculation modes are currently supported:
### 1. FIBONACCI
The cooldown follows the Fibonacci sequence, based on the number of consecutive losses:
1st loss → wait 1 bar
2nd loss → wait 1 bar
3rd loss → wait 2 or 3 bars (depending on definition)
4th loss → wait 3 or 5 bars
etc.
### 2. POWER OF TWO
The cooldown increases exponentially:
1st loss → wait 2 bars
2nd loss → wait 4 bars
3rd loss → wait 8 bars
4th loss → wait 16 bars
and so on, using the formula 2ⁿ.
## Configurable Parameters
### Cooldown Pause Calculation
The settings allow you to define the SL and TP as percentages of the position value.
The "Cooldown Pause Calculation" option determines how the next cooldown duration is computed after a losing trade.
The system keeps track of how many consecutive losses have occurred since the last profitable trade. That counter is then used to compute how many bars we must wait before opening the next position.
### Maximum Cooldown
The "Max Cooldown Candles" setting defines the maximum number of bars we are allowed to wait before placing a new trade. This prevents the strategy from “locking itself out” for too long and mitigates the fear of missing out (FOMO).
Once the cooldown duration reaches this maximum, the system essentially wraps around and starts the progression again. In the script, this is handled using a simple modulo operation based on the chosen maximum.
Double MOST with Pivot and EMAMOST Long Strategy with Multi-Filter Confirmation (Pivot + VAR Trend Filter)
This strategy combines a custom MOST stop-line structure with a moving average trend filter (EMA / VAR / ZLMA), daily pivot levels, and a 9-period VAR filter to generate clean long-only entries.
It aims to capture early trend continuations while avoiding reversals and false breakouts.
✔ Buy Conditions
A long position is opened only if all of the conditions below occur simultaneously:
MA (ort) > MOST Line (s2)
– Confirms that momentum is on the long side.
Price > Daily Pivot (pvt_gun)
– Ensures the market is trading above the day’s fair-value level.
Price > VAR(9)
– Short-term VAR filter to confirm trend strength and reduce noise.
Only the first bar where all conditions turn true generates a position.
✔ Sell Condition
A long position is closed when:
MOST Line (s2) crosses above MA (ort)
– Indicates a momentum shift against the long position.
✔ Execution Style (MetaStock-like)
Strategy operates long-only
Orders are filled on the next bar open, not on the signal bar
Commission: 0.03% (3 bps / on-binde 3)
Position size: 100% of equity per trade
This makes the behavior comparable to classical MetaStock backtesting logic.
✔ Chart Markers
Only actual trade entries and exits are drawn
No repeated signals or overlapping markers
Clean visual trade history
Purpose
This strategy is ideal for traders who want:
A structured long-only trend model
A multi-layer confirmation filter
Clean execution without repaint
High-quality entries above market structure levels
Classic Wave: The Easy WayClassic Wave is a simple strategy with few rules and no over-optimization. Despite its simplicity, it is backed by a nearly century-long historical track record, delivering excellent returns on the weekly chart of the SPX (TVC).
I also recommend observing its strong performance on the SPY (weekly), which is the perfect instrument for executing this strategy with futures in the future.
Strategy Rules and Parameters
When a bullish candle closes above the 20-period EMA, we place the stop-loss below the low of that candle and target a risk-reward ratio of 1:1.
A second, more profitable variant is to change the risk-reward ratio in the code to 2:1.
-Total capital: $10,000
-We use 10% of the total capital per trade.
-Commissions: 0.1% per trade.
The code construction is simple and very well detailed within the script itself.
Risk-Reward Ratio 2:1
Using a 2:1 risk-reward ratio reduces the win rate but significantly increases profitability.
Across the full historical data of the SPX index (weekly), the system would have generated 236 trades, with a win rate of 51.27% and a profit factor of 2.53.
From January 1, 2023, to November 28, 2025, the system would have generated 5 trades, with an 80% win rate and a profit factor of 9.244.
What makes this system so good?
-It takes advantage of the long-term bullish bias of U.S. stock indices and traditional markets.
-It filters out a lot of noise thanks to the weekly timeframe.
-It uses simple parameters with no over-optimization.
Final Notes:
This strategy has consistently outperformed the returns offered by most traditional funds over time, with fewer drawdowns and significantly less stress. I hope you like it.
Trend Breakout & Ratchet Stop System [Market Filter]Description:
This strategy implements a robust trend-following system designed to capture momentum moves while strictly managing downside risk through a multi-stage "Ratchet" exit mechanism and broad market filters.
It is designed for swing traders who want to align individual stock entries with the overall market direction.
How it works:
1. Market Regime Filters (The "Safety Check") Before taking any position, the strategy checks the health of the broader market to avoid "catching falling knives."
Broad Market Filter: By default, it checks NASDAQ:QQQ (adjustable). If the benchmark is trading below its SMA 200, the strategy assumes a Bear Market and suppresses all new long entries.
Volatility Filter (VIX): Uses CBOE:VIX to gauge fear. If the VIX is above a specific threshold (Default: 32), entries are paused, and existing positions can optionally be closed to preserve capital.
2. Entry Logic Entries are based on Momentum and Trend confirmation. A position is opened if filters are clear AND one of the following occurs:
Golden Cross: SMA 25 crosses over SMA 50.
SMA Breakouts: A "Three-Bar-Break" logic confirms a breakout above the SMA 50, 100, or 200 (price must establish itself above the moving average).
3. The "Ratchet" Exit System The exit logic evolves as the trade progresses, tightening risk like a ratchet:
Stage 0 (Initial Risk): Starts with a standard percentage Stop Loss from the entry price.
Stage 1 (Breakeven/Lock): Once the price rises by Profit Step 1 (e.g., +10%), the Stop Loss jumps to a tighter level and locks there. This secures the initial move.
Stage 2 (Trailing Mode): If the price continues to rise to Profit Step 2 (e.g., +15%), the Stop Loss converts into a dynamic Trailing Stop relative to the Highest High. This allows the trade to run as long as the trend persists.
Additional Exits:
Dead Cross: Closes position if SMA 25 crosses under SMA 50.
VIX Panic: Emergency exit if volatility spikes above the threshold.
Settings & Customization:
SMAs: Adjustable lengths for all Moving Averages.
Filters: Toggle Market/VIX filters on/off and choose your benchmark ticker (e.g., SPY or QQQ).
Risk Management: Fully customizable percentages for the Ratchet steps (Initial SL, Stage 1 Trigger, Trailing distance).
Ratchet Exit Trend Strategy with VIX FilterThis strategy is a trend-following system designed specifically for volatile markets. Instead of focusing solely on the "perfect entry," this script emphasizes intelligent trade management using a custom **"Ratchet Exit System."**
Additionally, it integrates a volatility filter based on the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) to minimize risk during extreme market phases.
### 🎯 The Concept: Ratchet Exit
The "Ratchet" system operates like a mechanical ratchet tool: the Stop Loss can only move in one direction (up, for long trades) and "locks" into specific stages. The goal is to give the trade "room to breathe" initially to avoid being stopped out by noise, then aggressively reduce risk as the trade moves into profit.
The exit logic moves through 3 distinct phases:
1. **Phase 0 (Initial Risk):** At the start of the trade, a wide Stop Loss is set (Default: 10%) to tolerate normal market volatility.
2. **Phase 1 (Risk Reduction):** Once the trade reaches a specific floating profit (Default: +10%), the Stop Loss is raised and "pinned" to a fixed value (Default: -8% from entry). This drastically reduces risk while keeping the trade alive.
3. **Phase 2 (Trailing Mode):** If the trend extends to a higher profit zone (Default: +15%), the Stop switches to a dynamic Trailing Mode. It follows the **Highest High** at a fixed percentage distance (Default: 8%).
### 🛡️ VIX Filter & Panic Exit
High volatility is often the enemy of trend-following strategies.
* **Entry Filter:** The system will not enter new positions if the VIX is above a user-defined threshold (Default: 32). This helps avoid entering "falling knife" markets.
* **Panic Exit:** If the VIX spikes above the threshold (32) while a trade is open, the position is closed immediately to protect capital (Emergency Exit).
### 📈 Entry Signals
The strategy trades **LONG only** and uses Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) to identify trends:
* **Golden Cross:** SMA 25 crosses over SMA 50.
* **3-Bar Breakouts:** A confirmation logic where the price must close above the SMA 50, 100, or 200 for 3 consecutive bars.
### ⚙️ Settings (Inputs)
All parameters are fully customizable via the settings menu:
* **SMAs:** Lengths for the trend indicators (Default: 25, 50, 100, 200).
* **VIX Filter:** Toggle the filter on/off and adjust the panic threshold.
* **Ratchet Settings:** Percentages for Initial Stop, Trigger Levels for Stages 1 & 2, and the Trailing Distance.
### ⚠️ Technical Note & Risk Warning

Best Entry Swing MASTER v3 PUBLIC (S.S)Strategy Description (English)
Best Entry Swing MASTER v3 – Quality Mode
The Best Entry Swing MASTER v3 is a structured swing trading and trend-following strategy designed to identify high-probability long and short entries during directional markets.
It combines three core setup types commonly used by momentum and breakout traders:
Breakout (BO)
Pullback Reversal (PB)
Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP)
The strategy applies multiple layers of confirmation, including multi-EMA trend structure, volatility contraction, volume filters, and an optional market regime filter.
It is suitable for swing trading on higher timeframes (4H, Daily), as well as medium-term trend continuation setups.
Core Concepts
1. Trend Structure
A trend is considered valid when:
Uptrend: Price > EMA20 > EMA50 > EMA100
Downtrend: Price < EMA20 < EMA50 < EMA100
In addition, a simple but effective trend-strength metric is calculated using the percentage spread between EMA20 and EMA100.
This helps avoid signals during sideways or low-volatility environments.
2. Market Regime Filter
The market environment is determined using a higher timeframe benchmark (default: SPY on Daily).
Only long trades are allowed in bullish market conditions
Only short trades in bearish conditions
This significantly reduces false signals in counter-trend conditions.
Entry Logic
Breakout (BO)
A long breakout triggers when:
Price closes above the highest high of the lookback period
Volume exceeds its 20-period average
Trend and market regime confirm
(Optional A+ mode): true volatility contraction is required
Similar logic applies for short breakdowns.
Pullback (PB)
A pullback entry triggers after:
At least two corrective candles
A strong reversal candle (close above previous high for long)
Volume confirmation
Price interacts with EMA20
This structure models classical trend-reentry conditions.
Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP)
A VCP entry triggers when:
True range contracts over multiple bars
Price holds near the breakout zone
Volume contracts
Trend and market regime are aligned
This setup aims to capture explosive continuation moves.
Quality Modes
The strategy offers two modes:
Balanced Mode
Moderate signal frequency
Broader trend-strength allowance
Suitable for more active traders
A+ Only Mode
Strict confirmation requirements
Only high-quality setups with multiple confluences
Designed to avoid low-probability trades entirely
Risk Management
Risk is managed using an ATR-based stop and target:
Long SL = Close − ATR × 1.5
Long TP = Close + ATR × 3
(Equivalent logic for short positions)
This provides a balanced reward-to-risk profile and avoids overly tight stops.
Early Entry Signals (Optional)
The script offers optional “Early Entry” markers that highlight when a setup is forming but not yet confirmed.
These are not entry signals and are disabled by default for public use.
Intended Use
This strategy is designed for:
Swing trading
Momentum continuation
Trend-following
Multi-day to multi-week trades
It performs best on:
4H
Daily
High-liquidity equities, indices, and futures
Disclaimer
This script is intended for educational and research purposes.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Always backtest thoroughly and use appropriate risk management.
