RR
Risk to Reward - FIXED SL BacktesterDon't know how to code? No problem! TradingView is an excellent platform for you. ✅ ✅
If you have an indicator that you want to backtest using a risk-to-reward ratio or fixed take profit/stop loss levels, then the Risk to Reward - FIXED SL Backtester script is the perfect solution for you.
introducing Risk to Reward - FIXED SL Backtester Script which will allow you to test any indicator / Signal with RR or Fixed SL system
How does it work ?!
Once you connect the script to your indicator, it will analyze your entry points and perform calculations based on them. It will then open trades for you according to the specified inputs in the script settings.
HOW TO CONNECT IT to your indicator?
simply open your indicator code and add the below line of code to it
plot(Signal ? 100 : 0,"Signal",display = display.data_window)
Replace Signal with the long condition from your own indicator. You can also modify the value 100 to any number you prefer. After that, open the settings.
Once the script is connected to your indicator, you can choose from two options:
Risk To Reward Ratio System
Fixed TP/ SL System
🔸if you select the Risk to Reward System ⤵️
The Risk-to-Reward System requires the calculation of a stop loss. That's why I have included three different types of stop-loss calculations for you to choose from:
ATR Based SL
Pivot Low SL
VWAP Based SL
Your stop loss and take profit levels will be automatically calculated based on the selected stop loss method and your risk-to-reward ratio.
You can also adjust their values to match your desired risk level. The trades will be displayed on the chart.
with the ability to change their values to match your risk.
once this is done, trades will be displayed on the chart
🔸if you select the Fixed system ⤵️
You have 2 inputs, which are FIXED TP & Fixed SL
input the values you want, and trades will be on your chart...
I have also added a Breakeven feature for you.
with this Breakeven feature the trade will not just move SL to Entry ?! NO NO, it will place it above entry by a % you input yourself, so you always win! 🚀
Here is an example
Enjoy, and have fun, if you have any questions do not hesitate to ask
Risk Reward Calculator [lovealgotrading]
OVERVIEW:
This Risk Reward Calculator strategy can help you maximize your RR value with help of algorithmic trading.
INDICATOR:
I wanted to setup my trades more easier with this indicator, I didn't want to calculate everytime before orders, with help this indicator we can calculate R:R value, avarage price, stoploss price, take-profit price, order prices, all position cost and more ...
Our strategy is a risk revard calculation indicator that is made easy to use by using visualized lines and panels, and also has algorithmic trading support.
With the help of this indicator, we can quickly and easily calculate our risk reward values and enter the positions.
If we want to ensure that our balance grows regularly while trading in the stock market, we need to manage the risks and rewards otherwise we may fall below our initial balance at the end of the day, even if we seem to be winning.
What is the Risk-Reward value ?
This value is a value that shows how many times the amount of risk we take when entering the position is successful, we will earn.
- For example, you risked $100 while entering the trade, so if your trade stops, you will lose 100 $.
Your Risk-Reward(RR) value is 2 means that if your position is successful, you will have 200 $ in your pocket.
A trader's success is determined by the amount of R he earns monthly or yearly, not how much money he makes.
What is different in this indicator ?
I want to say thank you to © EvoCrypto. His Calculator (weighted) – evo indicator helped me when I was developed my indicator.
I want to explain what I have improved:
1-In this strategy, we can determine the time period in which we want to open our positions.
2-We can open a maximum of 4 positions in the same direction and close our positions at a single level. StopLoss or TakeProfit
3-This indicator, which works in the form of a strategy, shows where our positions have been opened or closed. With the help of this, it helps us to determine our strategy in our future positions more accurately.
4-The most important improvement is that we do not miss our positions with the help of alarms (WEB HOOK). if we want, we receive by quickly connecting all these positions to our robot, the software can enter and exit the position while we are busy.
IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS – SETTINGS:
1 - We can set the start and end dates of the positions we will take.
2- We can set our take profit, stoploss levels.
3- If your trade is stopped, we can determine the amount of the trade that we will lose.
4- We can adjust our entry levels to positions and our position sizes at entry levels.
(Sum of positions weight must be 100%)
5- We can receive our positions even if we are busy with the help of algorithmic trading. For this, we must paste our Jshon codes into the fields specified in the settings panel.
6- Finally, we can change the settings we want and don't want to have in our visual elements.
Let's make a LONG side example together
We have determined our positions to enter stoploss, take profit and long positions. We did not forget to set the start time of our strategy
Our strategy appear on the graph as follows.
Our strategy has calculated the total position size, our R-R value, the distance of the current price to the stop and take profit levels, in short, a lot of things we could look visually.
Notes:
If you're going to connect this bot to an automatic Long or Short direction,
Don’t forget! you need to Webhook URL,
Don’t miss paste this code to your message window {{strategy.order.alert_message}}
