SMB MagicSMB Magic
Overview: SMB Magic is a powerful technical strategy designed to capture breakout opportunities based on price movements, volume spikes, and trend-following logic. This strategy works exclusively on the XAU/USD symbol and is optimized for the 15-minute time frame. By incorporating multiple factors, this strategy identifies high-probability trades with a focus on risk management.
Key Features:
Breakout Confirmation:
This strategy looks for price breakouts above the previous high or below the previous low, with a significant volume increase. A breakout is considered valid when it is supported by strong volume, confirming the strength of the price move.
Price Movement Filter:
The strategy ensures that only significant price movements are considered for trades, helping to avoid low-volatility noise. This filter targets larger price swings to maximize potential profits.
Exponential Moving Average (EMA):
A long-term trend filter is applied to ensure that buy trades occur only when the price is above the moving average, and sell trades only when the price is below it.
Fibonacci Levels:
Custom Fibonacci retracement levels are drawn based on recent price action. These levels act as dynamic support and resistance zones and help determine the exit points for trades.
Take Profit/Stop Loss:
The strategy incorporates predefined take profit and stop loss levels, designed to manage risk effectively. These levels are automatically applied to trades and are adjusted based on the market's volatility.
Volume Confirmation:
A volume multiplier confirms the strength of the breakout. A trade is only considered when the volume exceeds a certain threshold, ensuring that the breakout is supported by sufficient market participation.
How It Works:
Entry Signals:
Buy Signal: A breakout above the previous high, accompanied by significant volume and price movement, occurs when the price is above the trend-following filter (e.g., EMA).
Sell Signal: A breakout below the previous low, accompanied by significant volume and price movement, occurs when the price is below the trend-following filter.
Exit Strategy:
Each position (long or short) has predefined take-profit and stop-loss levels, which are designed to protect capital and lock in profits at key points in the market.
Fibonacci Levels:
Fibonacci levels are drawn to identify potential areas of support or resistance, which can be used to guide exits and stop-loss placements.
Important Notes:
Timeframe Restriction: This strategy is designed specifically for the 15-minute time frame.
Symbol Restriction: The strategy works exclusively on the XAU/USD (Gold) symbol and is not recommended for use with other instruments.
Best Performance in Trending Markets: It works best in trending conditions where breakouts occur frequently.

Innocent Heikin Ashi Ethereum StrategyHello there, im back!
If you are familiar with my previous scripts, this one will seem like the future's nostalgia!
Functionality:
As you can see, all candles are randomly colored. This has no deeper meaning, it should remind you to switch to Heikin Ashi. The Strategy works on standard candle stick charts, but should be used with Heikin Ashi to see the actual results. (Regular OHLC calculations are included.)
Same as in my previous scripts we import our PVSRA Data from @TradersReality open source Indicator.
With this data and the help of moving averages, we have got an edge in the market.
Signal Logic:
When a "violently green" candle appears (high buy volume + tick speed) above the 50 EMA indicates a change in trend and sudden higher prices. Depending on OHLC of the candle itself and volume, Take Profit and Stop Loss is calculated. (The price margin is the only adjustable setting). Additionally, to make this script as simple and easily useable as possible, all other adjustable variables have been already set to the best suitable value and the chart was kept plain, except for the actual entries and exits.
Basic Settings and Adjustables:
Main Input 1: TP and SL combined price range. (Double, Triple R:R equally.)
Trade Inputs: All standard trade size and contract settings for testing available.
Special Settings:
Checkbox 1: Calculate Signal in Heikin Ashi chart, including regular candle OHLC („Open, High, Low, Close“)
Checkbox 2/3: Calculate by order fill or every tick.
Checkbox 4: Possible to fill orders on bar close.
Timeframe and practical usage:
Made for the 5 Minute to 1 hour timeframe.
Literally ONLY works on Ethereum and more or less on Bitcoin.
EVERY other asset has absolute 0% profitability.
Have fun and share with your friends!
Thanks for using!

Chande Kroll Trend Strategy (SPX, 1H) | PINEINDICATORSThe "Chande Kroll Stop Strategy" is designed to optimize trading on the SPX using a 1-hour timeframe. This strategy effectively combines the Chande Kroll Stop indicator with a Simple Moving Average (SMA) to create a robust method for identifying long entry and exit points. This detailed description will explain the components, rationale, and usage to ensure compliance with PulseWire's guidelines and help traders understand the strategy's utility and application.
Objective
The primary goal of this strategy is to identify potential long trading opportunities in the SPX by leveraging volatility-adjusted stop levels and trend-following principles. It aims to capture upward price movements while managing risk through dynamically calculated stops.
Chande Kroll Stop Parameters:
Calculation Mode: Offers "Linear" and "Exponential" options for position size calculation. The default mode is "Exponential."
Risk Multiplier: An adjustable multiplier for risk management and position sizing, defaulting to 5.
ATR Period: Defines the period for calculating the Average True Range (ATR), with a default of 10.
ATR Multiplier: A multiplier applied to the ATR to set stop levels, defaulting to 3.
Stop Length: Period used to determine the highest high and lowest low for stop calculation, defaulting to 21.
SMA Length: Period for the Simple Moving Average, defaulting to 21.
Calculation Details:
ATR Calculation: ATR is calculated over the specified period to measure market volatility.
Chande Kroll Stop Calculation:
High Stop: The highest high over the stop length minus the ATR multiplied by the ATR multiplier.
Low Stop: The lowest low over the stop length plus the ATR multiplied by the ATR multiplier.
SMA Calculation: The 21-period SMA of the closing price is used as a trend filter.
Entry and Exit Conditions:
Long Entry: A long position is initiated when the closing price crosses over the low stop and is above the 21-period SMA. This condition ensures that the market is trending upward and that the entry is made in the direction of the prevailing trend.
Exit Long: The long position is exited when the closing price falls below the high stop, indicating potential downward movement and protecting against significant drawdowns.
Position Sizing:
The quantity of shares to trade is calculated based on the selected calculation mode (linear or exponential) and the risk multiplier. This ensures position size is adjusted dynamically based on current market conditions and user-defined risk tolerance.
Exponential Mode: Quantity is calculated using the formula: riskMultiplier / lowestClose * 1000 * strategy.equity / strategy.initial_capital.
Linear Mode: Quantity is calculated using the formula: riskMultiplier / lowestClose * 1000.
Execution:
When the long entry condition is met, the strategy triggers a buy signal, and a long position is entered with the calculated quantity. An alert is generated to notify the trader.
When the exit condition is met, the strategy closes the position and triggers a sell signal, accompanied by an alert.
Plotting:
Buy Signals: Indicated with an upward triangle below the bar.
Sell Signals: Indicated with a downward triangle above the bar.
Application
This strategy is particularly effective for trading the SPX on a 1-hour timeframe, capitalizing on price movements by adjusting stop levels dynamically based on market volatility and trend direction.
Default Setup
Initial Capital: $1,000
Risk Multiplier: 5
ATR Period: 10
ATR Multiplier: 3
Stop Length: 21
SMA Length: 21
Commission: 0.01
Slippage: 3 Ticks
Backtesting Results
Backtesting indicates that the "Chande Kroll Stop Strategy" performs optimally on the SPX when applied to the 1-hour timeframe. The strategy's dynamic adjustment of stop levels helps manage risk effectively while capturing significant upward price movements. Backtesting was conducted with a realistic initial capital of $1,000, and commissions and slippage were included to ensure the results are not misleading.
Risk Management
The strategy incorporates risk management through dynamically calculated stop levels based on the ATR and a user-defined risk multiplier. This approach ensures that position sizes are adjusted according to market volatility, helping to mitigate potential losses. Trades are sized to risk a sustainable amount of equity, adhering to the guideline of risking no more than 5-10% per trade.
Usage Notes
Customization: Users can adjust the ATR period, ATR multiplier, stop length, and SMA length to better suit their trading style and risk tolerance.
Alerts: The strategy includes alerts for buy and sell signals to keep traders informed of potential entry and exit points.
Pyramiding: Although possible, the strategy yields the best results without pyramiding.
Justification of Components
The Chande Kroll Stop indicator and the 21-period SMA are combined to provide a robust framework for identifying long trading opportunities in trending markets. Here is why they work well together:
Chande Kroll Stop Indicator: This indicator provides dynamic stop levels that adapt to market volatility, allowing traders to set logical stop-loss levels that account for current price movements. It is particularly useful in volatile markets where fixed stops can be easily hit by random price fluctuations. By using the ATR, the stop levels adjust based on recent market activity, ensuring they remain relevant in varying market conditions.
21-Period SMA: The 21-period SMA acts as a trend filter to ensure trades are taken in the direction of the prevailing market trend. By requiring the closing price to be above the SMA for long entries, the strategy aligns itself with the broader market trend, reducing the risk of entering trades against the overall market direction. This helps to avoid false signals and ensures that the trades are in line with the dominant market movement.
Combining these two components creates a balanced approach that captures trending price movements while protecting against significant drawdowns through adaptive stop levels. The Chande Kroll Stop ensures that the stops are placed at levels that reflect current volatility, while the SMA filter ensures that trades are only taken when the market is trending in the desired direction.
Concepts Underlying Calculations
ATR (Average True Range): Used to measure market volatility, which informs the stop levels.
SMA (Simple Moving Average): Used to filter trades, ensuring positions are taken in the direction of the trend.
Chande Kroll Stop: Combines high and low price levels with ATR to create dynamic stop levels that adapt to market conditions.

Bjorgum Double Tap█ OVERVIEW
Double Tap is a pattern recognition script aimed at detecting Double Tops and Double Bottoms. Double Tap can be applied to the broker emulator to observe historical results, run as a trading bot for live trade alerts in real time with entry signals, take profit, and stop orders, or to simply detect patterns.
█ CONCEPTS
How Is A Pattern Defined?
Doubles are technical formations that are both reversal patterns and breakout patterns. These formations typically have a distinctive “M” or a “W” shape with price action breaking beyond the neckline formed by the center of the pattern. They can be recognized when a pivot fails to break when tested for a second time and the retracement that follows breaks beyond the key level opposite. This can trap entrants that were playing in the direction of the prior trend. Entries are made on the breakout with a target projected beyond the neckline equal to the height of the pattern.
Pattern Recognition
Patterns are recognized through the use of zig-zag; a method of filtering price action by connecting swing highs and lows in an alternating fashion to establish trend, support and resistance, or derive shapes from price action. The script looks for the highest or lowest point in a given number of bars and updates a list with the values as they form. If the levels are exceeded, the values are updated. If the direction changes and a new significant point is made, a new point is added to the list and the process starts again. Meanwhile, we scan the list of values looking for the distinctive shape to form as previously described.
█ STRATEGY RESULTS
Back Testing
Historical back testing is the most common method to test a strategy due in part to the general ease of gathering quick results. The underlying theory is that any strategy that worked well in the past is likely to work well in the future, and conversely, any strategy that performed poorly in the past is likely to perform poorly in the future. It is easy to poke holes in this theory, however, as for one to accept it as gospel, one would have to assume that future results will match what has come to pass. The randomness of markets may see to it otherwise, so it is important to scrutinize results. Some commonly used methods are to compare to other markets or benchmarks, perform statistical analysis on the results over many iterations and on differing datasets, walk-forward testing, out-of-sample analysis, or a variety of other techniques. There are many ways to interpret the results, so it is important to do research and gain knowledge in the field prior to taking meaningful conclusions from them.
👉 In short, it would be naive to place trust in one good backtest and expect positive results to continue. For this reason, results have been omitted from this publication.
Repainting
Repainting is simply the difference in behaviour of a strategy in real time vs the results calculated on the historical dataset. The strategy, by default, will wait for confirmed signals and is thus designed to not repaint. Waiting for bar close for entires aligns results in the real time data feed to those calculated on historical bars, which contain far less data. By doing this we align the behaviour of the strategy on the 2 data types, which brings significance to the calculated results. To override this behaviour and introduce repainting one can select "Recalculate on every tick" from the properties tab. It is important to note that by doing this alerts may not align with results seen in the strategy tester when the chart is reloaded, and thus to do so is to forgo backtesting and restricts a strategy to forward testing only.
👉 It is possible to use this script as an indicator as opposed to a full strategy by disabling "Use Strategy" in the "Inputs" tab. Basic alerts for detection will be sent when patterns are detected as opposed to complex order syntax. For alerts mid-bar enable "Recalculate on every tick" , and for confirmed signals ensure it is disabled.
█ EXIT ORDERS
Limit and Stop Orders
By default, the strategy will place a stop loss at the invalidation point of the pattern. This point is beyond the pattern high in the case of Double Tops, or beneath the pattern low in the case of Double Bottoms. The target or take profit point is an equal-legs measurement, or 100% of the pattern height in the direction of the pattern bias. Both the stop and the limit level can be adjusted from the user menu as a percentage of the pattern height.
Trailing Stops
Optional from the menu is the implementation of an ATR based trailing stop. The trailing stop is designed to begin when the target projection is reached. From there, the script looks back a user-defined number of bars for the highest or lowest point +/- the ATR value. For tighter stops the user can look back a lesser number of bars, or decrease the ATR multiple. When using either Alertatron or Trading Connector, each change in the trail value will trigger an alert to update the stop order on the exchange to reflect the new trail price. This reduces latency and slippage that can occur when relying on alerts only as real exchange orders fill faster and remain in place in the event of a disruption in communication between your strategy and the exchange, which ensures a higher level of safety.
👉 It is important to note that in the case the trailing stop is enabled, limit orders are excluded from the exit criteria. Rather, the point in time that the limit value is exceeded is the point that the trail begins. As such, this method will exit by stop loss only.
█ ALERTS
Five Built-in 3rd Party Destinations
The following are five options for delivering alerts from Double Tap to live trade execution via third party API solutions or chat bots to share your trades on social media. These destinations can be selected from the input menu and alert syntax will automatically configure in alerts appropriately to manage trades.
Custom JSON
JSON, or JavaScript Object Notation, is a readable format for structuring data. It is used primarily to transmit data between a server and a web application. In regards to this script, this may be a custom intermediary web application designed to catch alerts and interface with an exchange API. The JSON message is a trade map for an application to read equipped with where its been, where its going, targets, stops, quantity; a full diagnostic of the current state and its previous state. A web application could be configured to follow the messages sent in this format and conduct trades in sync with alerts running on the TV server.
Below is an example of a rendered JSON alert:
{
"passphrase": "1234",
"time": "2022-05-01T17:50:05Z",
"ticker": "ETHUSDTPERP",
"plot": {
"stop_price": 2600.15,
"limit_price": 3100.45
},
"strategy": {
"position_size": 0.1,
"order_action": "buy",
"market_position": "long",
"market_position_size": 0,
"prev_market_position": "flat",
"prev_market_position_size": 0
}
}
Trading Connector
Trading Connector is a third party fully autonomous Chrome extension designed to catch alert webhooks from PulseWire and interface with MT4/MT5 to execute live trades from your machine. Alerts to Trading Connector are simple; just select the destination from the input drop down menu, set your ticker in the "TC Ticker" box in the "Alert Strings" section and enter your URL in the alert window when configuring your alert.
Alertatron
Alertatron is an automated algo platform for cryptocurrency trading that is designed to automate your trading strategies. Although the platform is currently restricted to crypto, it offers a versatile interface with high flexibility syntax for complex market orders and conditions. To direct alerts to Alertatron, select the platform from the 3rd party drop down, configure your API key in the ”Alertatron Key” box and add your URL in the alert message box when making alerts.
3 Commas
3 Commas is an easy and quick to use click-and-go third party crypto API solution. Alerts are simple without overly complex syntax. Messages are simply pasted into alerts and executed as alerts are triggered. There are 4 boxes at the bottom of the "Inputs" tab where the appropriate messages to be placed. These messages can be copied from 3 Commas after the bots are set up and pasted directly into the settings menu. Remember to select 3 Commas as a destination from the third party drop down and place the appropriate URL in the alert message window.
Discord
Some may wish to share their trades with their friends in a Discord chat via webhook chat bot. Messages are configured to notify of the pattern type with targets and stop values. A bot can be configured through the integration menu in a Discord chat to which you have appropriate access. Select Discord from the 3rd party drop down menu and place your chat bot URL in the alert message window when configuring alerts.
👉 For further information regarding alert setup, refer to the platform specific instructions given by the chosen third party provider.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
Setting Alerts
For alert messages to be properly delivered on order fills it is necessary to place the following placeholder in the alert message box when creating an alert.
{{strategy.order.alert_message}}
This placeholder will auto-populate the alert message with the appropriate syntax that is designated for the 3rd party selected in the user menu.
Order Sizing and Commissions
The values that are sent in alert messages are populated from live metrics calculated by the strategy. This means that the actual values in the "Properties" tab are used and must be set by the user. The initial capital, order size, commission, etc. are all used in the calculations, so it is important to set these prior to executing live trades. Be sure to set the commission to the values used by the exchange as well.
👉 It is important to understand that the calculations on the account size take place from the beginning of the price history of the strategy. This means that if historical results have inflated or depleted the account size from the beginning of trade history until now, the values sent in alerts will reflect the calculated size based on the inputs in the "Properties" tab. To start fresh, the user must set the date in the "Inputs" tab to the current date as to remove trades from the trade history. Failure to follow this instruction can result in an unexpected order size being sent in the alert.
█ FOR PINECODERS
• With the recent introduction of matrices in Pine, the script utilizes a matrix to track pivot points with the bars they occurred on, while tracking if that pivot has been traded against to prevent duplicate detections after a trade is exited.
• Alert messages are populated with placeholders ; capability that previously was only possible in alertcondition() , but has recently been extended to `strategy.*()` functions for use in the `alert_message` argument. This allows delivery of live trade values to populate in strategy alert messages.
• New arguments have been added to strategy.exit() , which allow differentiated messages to be sent based on whether the exit occurred at the stop or the limit. The new arguments used in this script are `alert_profit` and `alert_loss` to send messages to Discord Strategy

Bjorgum Key Levels
Key Levels Aims to capture 3 of the most significant points in price action
Breakouts
False Breakouts (Traps)
Back Checks
These 3 points alone, if properly identified, can be some of the most significant points of movement in the price history of an asset and bring significant gains to traders, if capitalized on. Here are a few examples of these setups
Breakouts
Breakouts can bring significant rallies as the market swings one sided after key levels are breached. This entry type can bring large trending runs to follow. Momentum is on your side, but the trade off is a higher entry.
False Breakouts
Also known as a bull trap or a bear trap, false breaks can lead to swift and significant reversals and potential for a large and sudden move to the opposite side. When a key level breakout fails to hold, parties entering to capitalize on the "epic breakout" can get left holding the bag forcing them to exit at a loss, which can double the force of pressure. Traps can bring swift gains from good entry prices. However, price is still in a larger trend against you so momentum is weak, so price action is susceptible to roll over.
Backchecks
Back checks are pull backs in trend that find middle ground to the 2 areas already described. Both momentum and entry price are decent, but risk is defined as a key level has flipped offering entry with stops below demand, or above supply.
Combining these 3 methods helps to diversify risk, understand trend development, and bring steady gains. This script helps to identify these points to traders with analysis of key levels, price structure, and trend direction, while providing visual signals and alerts for when they occur.

3Commas BotBjorgum 3Commas Bot
A strategy in a box to get you started today
With 3rd party API providers growing in popularity, many are turning to automating their strategies on their favorite assets. With so many options and layers of customization possible, PulseWire offers a place no better for young or even experienced coders to build a platform from to meet these needs. 3Commas has offered easy access with straight forward PulseWire compatibility. Before long many have their brokers hooked up and are ready to send their alerts (or perhaps they have been trying with mixed success for some time now) only they realize there might just be a little bit more to building a strategy that they are comfortable letting out of their sight to trade their money while they eat, sleep, etc. Many may have ideas for entry criteria they are excited to try, but further questions arise... "What about risk mitigation?" "How can I set stop or limit orders?" "Is there not some basic shell of a strategy that has laid some of this out for me to get me going?"
Well now there is just that. This strategy is meant for those that have begun to delve into the world of algorithmic trading providing a template that offers risk defined positions complete with stops, limit orders, and even trailing stops should one so choose to employ any of these criteria. It provides a framework that is easily manipulated (with some basic working knowledge of pine coding) to encompass ones own ideas and entry criteria, while also providing an already functioning strategy.
The default settings have a basic 1:1 risk to reward ratio, which sets a limit and a stop equal distance from the entry. The entry is a simple MA cross (up for long, down for short). There a variety of MA's to choose from and the user can define the lengths of the averages. The ratio can be adjusted from the menu along with a volatility based adder (ATR) that helps to distance a stop from support or resistance. These values are calculated off the swing low/high of the user defined lookback period. Risk is calculated from position entry to stop, and projected upwards to the limit as a function of the desired risk to reward ratio. Of note: the default settings include 0.05% commissions. Competitive commissions of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges are .1% round trip (one buy and one sell) for market orders. There is also some slippage to allow time for alerts to be sent and orders to fill giving the back test results a more accurate representation of real time conditions. Its recommended to research the going rates for your exchange and set them to default for the strategy you use or build.
To get started a user would:
1) Make a copy of the code and paste in their bot keys in the area provided under the "3Comma Keys" section
- eg. Long bot "start deal" copied from 3commas in to define "Long" etc. (code is commented)
2) Place alert on desired asset with desired settings ensuring to select "Order fills and alert() function calls"
3) Paste webhook into the webhook box and select webhook URL alerts (3rd party provided webhook)
3) Delete contents of alert message box and replace with {{strategy.order.alert_message}} and nothing else
- the codes will be sent to the webhook appropriately as the strategy enters and exits positions. Only 1 alert is needed
settings used for the display image:
1hr chart on BTCUSD
-ATR stop
-Risk adjustment 1.2
-ATR multiplier 1.3
-RnR 0.6
-MAs HEMA/SMA
-MA Length 50/100
-Order size percent of equity
-Trail trigger 60% of target
Experiment with your own settings on your crypto of choice or implement your own code!
Implementing your trailing stop (optional)
Among the options for possible settings is a trailing stop. This stop will ratchet higher once triggered as a function of the Average True Range (ATR). There is a variable level to choose where the user would like to begin trailing the stop during the trade. The level can be assigned with a decimal between 0 and 1 (eg. 0.5 = 50% of the distance between entry and the target which must be exceeded before the trail triggers to begin). This can allow for some dips to occur during the trade possibly keeping you in the trade for longer, while potentially reducing risk of drawdown over time. The default for this setting is 0 meaning unless adjusted, the trail will trigger on entry if the trailing stop exit method is selected. An example can be seen below:
Again, optional as well is the choice to implement a limit order. If one were to select a trailing stop they could choose not to set a limit, which could allow a trail to run further until hit. Drawdowns of this strategy would be foregoing locking gains at highs on target on other trades. This is a trade-off the user can decide on and test. An example of this working in favor can be observed below:
Conclusion
Although a simple strategy is implemented here, the benefits of this script allow a user a starting platform to build their strategies from with built in risk mitigation. This allows the user to sidestep some of the potential difficulties' that can arise while learning Pine and taking on the endeavor of automating their trading strategies. It is meant as an aid, a structure, and an educational piece that can be seen as a "pick-up-and-go" strategy with easy 3Commas compatibility. Additionally, this can help users become more comfortable with strategy alert messages and sending strings in the form of alerts from Pine. As well, FAQs are often littered with questions regarding "strategy.exit" calls, how to implement stops. how to properly set a trailing stop based on ATR, and more. The time this can save an individual to get started is likely of the best "take-aways" here.
