BSTtrend (and a quick note on trading psychology)Hi again :) Script #2 for tonight, more to come :) This one is a Pine transcription of a FXCM/LUA script called BSTrend I used it years ago to trade index on very low timeframes with it. I'm always looking for oscillators that are more reactive than the traditional MACD. And even more reactive than the MACD Zero Lag This is a proof of concept that Pinescript is my favorite trading programming language vs MT4/LUA/PRT. I just find it easier and the Pinescript community is helping a lot With the BSTrend you can win but also lose. I see a lot of scripts out there but there is not a better or worst indicator. The key is HOW to use it. In other words the key is your PSYCHOLOGY, without a rock-solid psychology, you'll end up committing a mistake even with G. himself whispering "BUY NOW", "SELL NOW" to your ears. (wait..... Do you mean this is happening only to me ????) However, indicators help immensely in reducing the psychology pressure that we have to endure ... sometimes for days..... But better not to overcharge with dozens of indicators per chart and have a tool to detect whenever there is a confluence/convergence of your favorite indicators :) #algorithm #builder I'll publish an educational post about next week Those are the exact words that my mentor traders told me 6 years ago when I started trading PS ____________________________________________________________ Be sure to hit the thumbs up as it shows me that I'm not doing this for nothing and will motivate to deliver more quality content in the future. - I'm an officially approved PineEditor/LUA/MT4 approved mentor on codementor.

Triangular Moving Average (TMA) bandsWhat in the world is up folks ??!?? Here's the indicator of the day. Sharing a simple one today because I'm busy coding for a few clients (fun life of a top script author on TradingView) The TMA bands is an indicator that I discovered on FXCM a few years ago FXCM TMA bands From the screenshot above, we see that when the price hits the lower band, it's a possible reverse BUY signal. When it hits the upper band, it's a possible SELL signal Methodology 1) The Take Profit 1 is the middle line, Take Profit 2 is the opposite band. 2) Once the TP1 is hit, set your Stop Loss to breakeven 3) Once the TP2 is hit, if you still want to stay in the trade, set your Stop Loss to the TP1 That's what we call a trailing stop loss which I offered in the Trade Manager : Trade-Manager-Open-Source-Version/ It will be a powerful tool in your arsenal for some scalp/intraday trades After years of coding for traders, I worked with many brokers/API/languages so I'm very used to convert a script from a broker to another one (shameless self-advertising) PS Tomorrow I'll share the Signal version of my Algorithm Builder: You'll be able to connect it in a single click to a very cool Backtest System made by the Pinescripters community In other words, I'm selling the scripts to allow you to build your own signals in a few clicks AND to connect it easily to a kick-ass backtesting tool. More to come tomorrow Hope you'll like it, like me, love it, love me, tip me :) ____________________________________________________________ Feel free to hit the thumbs up as it shows me that I'm not doing this for nothing and will motivate to deliver more quality content in the future.

Pairs Volume FXCM mini accountScript shows the volume of the currency pairs in the FXCM mini account. I set it daily or weekly to see which pair is picking up in activity. My style of currency trading is short holds on the highest volatility. This helps me determine which pairs have the highest volume (or tick activity since there is no true exchange for currency). I use this in conjunction with the other script I wrote, "Pairs Range" which shows which pairs have the highest daily range. This script has a built in 5-sma on each pair. High daily range and high volume is volatility and liquidity. **** This does not include currencies in CHF ****
