Gold Scalping Strategy with Precise EntriesThe Gold Scalping Strategy with Precise Entries is designed to take advantage of short-term price movements in the gold market (XAU/USD). This strategy uses a combination of technical indicators and chart patterns to identify precise buy and sell opportunities during times of consolidation and trend continuation.
Key Elements of the Strategy:
Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
50 EMA: Used as the shorter-term moving average to detect the recent price trend.
200 EMA: Used as the longer-term moving average to determine the overall market trend.
Trend Identification:
A bullish trend is identified when the 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA.
A bearish trend is identified when the 50 EMA is below the 200 EMA.
Average True Range (ATR):
ATR (14) is used to calculate the market's volatility and to set a dynamic stop loss based on recent price movements. Higher ATR values indicate higher volatility.
ATR helps define a suitable stop-loss distance from the entry point.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
RSI (14) is used as a momentum oscillator to detect overbought or oversold conditions.
However, in this strategy, the RSI is primarily used as a consolidation filter to look for neutral zones (between 45 and 55), which may indicate a potential breakout or trend continuation after a consolidation phase.
Engulfing Patterns:
Bullish Engulfing: A bullish signal is generated when the current candle fully engulfs the previous bearish candle, indicating potential upward momentum.
Bearish Engulfing: A bearish signal is generated when the current candle fully engulfs the previous bullish candle, signaling potential downward momentum.
Precise Entry Conditions:
Long (Buy):
The 50 EMA is above the 200 EMA (bullish trend).
The RSI is between 45 and 55 (neutral/consolidation zone).
A bullish engulfing pattern occurs.
The price closes above the 50 EMA.
Short (Sell):
The 50 EMA is below the 200 EMA (bearish trend).
The RSI is between 45 and 55 (neutral/consolidation zone).
A bearish engulfing pattern occurs.
The price closes below the 50 EMA.
Take Profit and Stop Loss:
Take Profit: A fixed 20-pip target (where 1 pip = 0.10 movement in gold) is used for each trade.
Stop Loss: The stop-loss is dynamically set based on the ATR, ensuring that it adapts to current market volatility.
Visual Signals:
Buy and sell signals are visually plotted on the chart using green and red labels, indicating precise points of entry.
Advantages of This Strategy:
Trend Alignment: The strategy ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the overall trend, as indicated by the 50 and 200 EMAs.
Volatility Adaptation: The use of ATR allows the stop loss to adapt to the current market conditions, reducing the risk of premature exits in volatile markets.
Precise Entries: The combination of engulfing patterns and the neutral RSI zone provides a high-probability entry signal that captures momentum after consolidation.
Quick Scalping: With a fixed 20-pip profit target, the strategy is designed to capture small price movements quickly, which is ideal for scalping.
This strategy can be applied to lower timeframes (such as 1-minute, 5-minute, or 15-minute charts) for frequent trade opportunities in gold trading, making it suitable for day traders or scalpers. However, proper risk management should always be used due to the inherent volatility of gold.
On Balance Volume (OBV)
TASC 2024.01 Gap Momentum System█ OVERVIEW
TASC's January 2024 edition of Traders' Tips features an article titled “Gap Momentum” by Perry J. Kaufman. The article discusses how a trader might create a momentum strategy based on opening gap data. This script implements the Gap Momentum system presented therein.
█ CONCEPTS
In the article, Perry J. Kaufman introduces Gap Momentum as a cumulative series constructed in the same way as On-Balance Volume (OBV) , but using gap openings (today’s open minus yesterday’s close).
To smoothen the resulting time series (i.e., obtain the " signal line "), the author applies a simple moving average . Subsequently, he proposes the following two trading rules for a long-only trading system:
• Enter a long position when the signal line is moving higher.
• Exit when the signal line is moving lower.
█ CALCULATIONS
The calculation of Gap Momentum involves the following steps:
1. Calculate the ratio of the sum of positive gaps over the past N days to the sum of negative gaps (absolute values) over the same time period.
2. Add the resulting gap ratio to the cumulative time series. This time series is the Gap Momentum.
3. Keep moving forward, as in an N-day moving average.
Altered OBV On MACDHere is another strategy along with an indicator that is already published for everyone to use wisely in the tradingview platform. The strategy is not very planned to highlight where to enter and when to exit as it is just a system. So, it is always good practice to follow the signal of simple moving averages and that is the reason you could find those color lines in this strategy as well.
As the indicator signals the entry point, it is wise to decide what the SMA (21, 50, 90, 200) signals us. When the price oscillated around the higher timeframe of moving averages, then it is wise to wait before entering.
OBV:
The OBV is perfect indicator to understand the strength of the particular stock. As the strength increase, the trend of the stock goes high along with price. But, the OBV is considered only with close of previous close which is to make sure the double confirmation on the price to accumulate the volume .
Altered OBV:
So, here is the altered OBV, which basically consider the close of previous close and also buying interested of the day when close is higher than open.
MACD:
I always admire the magic of MACD with pre-defined timeframe. Now, this MACD applied on top of altered OBV to signal us the moving of the ticker strength.
Long:
The long entry occurs when the MACD on Altered OBV signal bullish and the same time the MACD on close already bullish.
Short
The short denotes when the MACD on Altered OBV signal bearish and at the same time the MACD on close already bearish.
I hope this would help on your swing trading strategy.
Happy Investing.
OBV MA StrategyThe On Balance Volume + Moving Average Strategy
Parameters: 1H candles, ETHUSDT on BINANCEUS, commission percent uses Binance's maker/taker fees of 0.075%
Strategy: I create a 30 day moving average of the On Balance Volume "obvSma = ta.sma(ta.obv, 30)." Then I use the following buy conditions:
OBV crosses above the OBV moving average
The obv drops x% below the OBV moving average (buy a dip)
The OBV moving average is rising, the OBV is greater than the OBV moving average and the OBV is rising
The first buy condition is attempting to buy into an uptrend. When the OBV rises above the OBV moving average, people are buying and it's a good time to enter the trade.
The idea behind the second buy condition is to buy a dip so make sure you are careful to not set it too shallow or you'll end up buying the dip before the dip before the dip. :) I recommend 10% or more.
The third buy condition is there in case our trailing stop takes us out of a trade but the trend is still rising, we don't want to miss out on that profit so if the OBV is above the OBV moving average, the average is rising and the OBV is rising, we are likely in the middle of an uptrend and we should buy in.

OBV Accumulation / Distribution Strategy CryptoThis version its made for 8-12h and works amazingly on the ETH pairs. Can be adapted to others as well
For this example, I used an initial 1$ account, using always full capital on each trade(without using any leverage), together with a 0.1% commission/fees for each deal, on Coinbase broker.
This is a long only strategy
The components for the inside of the strategy are the next one :
1. OBV Accumulation/Distribution
3. EMA
The rules here are simple : we check for cross up or above on OBV and EMAmoving average and after that we check for the trend direction based on ascending/descending OBV. Based on this we enter long or exit long.
RISK WARNING
Trading on any financial market involves a risk of loss. Please consider carefully if such trading is appropriate for you. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

On Balance Volume Oscillator Strategy [QuantNomad]Looking for the way to use OBV Oscillator in a strategy.
Here is my first try. I just enter to position of a cross of 2 emas based on OBV.
Here is my original oscillator indicator:
MCI and VCI - Modified CCI FormulasFor private peeps only
- Takes a modified version of the CCI formula into 2 parts
VCI - Volume Channel Index (Yellow Histogram)
- Measures accurate accumulation and distribution levels and times
MCI - Modified Channel Index
- Measures (when compared to VCI) levels where clearly buys are interested vs not interested.
Example:
If VCI > MCI
- Shows buyer's are more than interested in buying, you've either hit a bottom or heavy resistance
if MCI > VCI
- Show's buyer's aren't interested and will most likely result in a dump/lower price
Great for monitoring accumulation and distribution, these auto buy and sells look for the transition points over 0, works on EVERY commodity/stock/FOREX/Crypto
Results are from trading 1 BTC x25 leveraging. Not all trades will get in if put in at limit, but it does survive with profits after the massive 0.075 fee (results shown are after fees)
SB_CCI coded OBV StrategyStrategy-
Buy Order: Previous obv value is green and obv_cci coded line crosses over ema line
Sell Order: Previous obv value is red and obv_cci coded line crosses under ema line.
Original Idea:
Preferable for day/week intervals.
