Stoploss

Safe Scalpy Stop Loss. Percentage from price visualizer.This is my first script I have published so bear with me. I have thrown this together so you can easily see on the chart where -0.5%, -1% and -2% would be from the last candle close. I also replicated these to show positive values in case you are shorting. I have also added a custom value setting so you can set the line at whatever percentage value you like and included an adjustable recent higher high and higher low finder to help create a recent range as it seems to work well in tandem for scalping range based price movement. You can turn all these things on and off in the settings on the style checkboxes. I felt the need to make this because I like to scalp trade with leverage like a total degen from time to time. Often the setups happen very quickly. It is difficult to calculate where to set a stop loss in a hurry so I keep a fixed account size/lev and just vary the position percentage size based on the percentage of the stop loss from the current price. Sometimes when switching from a lower volatility chart to high volatility one it is easy to get caught out by quickly entering a scalp trade only to find you made your position way too big or you shouldn't have entered at all. You thought it was only moving 0.2% per candle instead of 3%. Whoops. Rekt. This indicator is all about trying to help me avoid that with a visual clue to back up the bad maths I do quickly in my head. I often hide it and only show it when I'm ready to enter a position to double check my SL and entry are set in a sensible area. I thought I would publish it in case someone else finds such a simple tool handy. Apologies if there is already something out there that does this job. I couldn't find it. See you all on the moon.

Position Sizing w/ ADR&ATR TrackingScript to use for position sizing based on portfolio size, max position, and max loss inputs. The option to use custom entry and stop are available, but default to last price for entry, and Low of Day (LoD) for stop. The ATR % is a measure of the low of day to current price as a percentage move. Credit to LonesomeTheBlue for the base code on position sizing and TheScrutiniser/GlinckEastwoot for ADR formula -Nelgoth, best of luck

MultiAlert, MultiTargets + TickersThis is my first script, completely made from scratch. Bear with me. Script that allows one to set an alert for Multiple Price Levels, on Multiple Tickers, complete with Dynamic Messages showing you which ticker, at which price, at which alert (Stop loss, Target 1 etc.), set to Once Per Bar. Select Ticker, type in price levels that you have for targets & stop loss, move on to the next, or don't and leave 0 and blank. Disable the targets you do not need in STYLE tab to disable plotting & scaling, leave unused tickers & targets blank & 0. Create Alert, select this indicator, anyfunction() alert. MAKE SURE to remake the alert every time you change something, they are not smart enough to change as you change things. Can Confirm by using the numbers in the alert name. You will also have to set the profit level or stop loss to zero every time it triggers to avoid triggered again. In fact, you do not need the indicator active at all. Add it to a chart and hide it by clicking on the little eyeball icon, to make an alert open the settings for the indicator and type in your targets like normal. Indicator will remain invisable. I have not found a way to dynamic message the alert name, or else I would. DISCLAIMER: NONE OF THIS IS FINANCIAL ADVICE. You are completely responsible for whatever happens to you. Do not use the targets in this chart. Do your own research before trading.

Pookies SL/TP LinesThis indicator calculates Stop-loss and Take-profit limits and plots them on the chart based on the daily ATR value for a given instrument. The Stop-loss is calculated at the current close price minus 1x ATR and is plotted as a red line by default. The Take-profit is calculated at the current close price plus 1.5x ATR and is plotted as a green line by default. The colors for each line can be changed, as well as the default ATR values (length, smoothing). To use: When you see a long or short signal (your own preference), enter your position and set your take-profit and stop-loss limits at the current red/green lines, based on whatever Risk-Reward you've set it to. This is also helpful in determining whether or not a trade offers enough potential to risk prior to entering the trade. When the lines are far apart, the ATR is high. When the lines are close together, the ATR is low. This can be used to determine volatility and allow traders to buy during consolidation and sell into strength. Thank you.

Highlighter Strategy V2// Based on Normalized Smoothed MACD by Dreadblitz Old one was just an oscillator, I changed a few things 1) It now paints the line green/orange 2) The trigger (green/red) is now based on a signal 3) The signal is basically isUp, but with some additional controls, e.g. 4) (new) There is an embedded stoploss. This is a growth/decay function that decays slower than it grows. 5) Signal is filtered additionally by the stoploss (no green under the decaying line)

ATR trailing Stop Loss tight to slack [Takazudo]This is a demo of ATR based trailing Stop Loss. This SL strategy uses 2 types of ATR based SL. tight SL as initial (ATR * 1.5) slack SL as trailing (ATR * 4) When any entry singal occurs by the buy/sell conditions, this SL strategy uses the "tight SL" as the initial SL. Then the SL will chase the price as trailing SL. However, this strategy uses the "slack SL" in this trailing phase. So you can set the tight SL first. Then SL will chase the price as the slack one. Note: The entry strategy in this script is not intented to win. Check the result. Be careful. Just a module of my strategy.

ATR For Stop Loss (Overlay)This script is an enhancement of ATR Indicator. It is used to determine the stop loss position by using the ATR indicator, in conjunction with the low of the candle. Formula = Stop Loss = Lowest(Lowest Length) - (ATR Multiplier * ATR (Smoothing, Length)) However, the user needs to manually identify the swing low for a better stop loss placement. Parameter Information : - Length : Period to calculate the average true range. - Smoothing : The method used for averaging. - ATR Multiplier : Multiplier factor to determine the Stop Loss from the lowest reference point. (1 ATR Multiplier means the stop loss would be = Low - ATR) - Lowest Length : A total number of candle to determine the lowest reference point. (1 means only using the latest candle's low as a lowest reference point) Have fun and good luck!

Fixed price Stop Loss [Takazudo]This strategy is a demo for fixed price stop loss. This strategy enables you to specify fixed price stop loss. Let's say your deposit is USD. When you trade EURCAD, you need to specify the quantity for trade. Here comes three chances for trade. A: SL pips: 500 B: SL pips: 200 C: SL pips: 100 In these trade, the risk is different for each. ABC risk ratio is 5:2:1. And, you cannot know how much to lose if the price hits the stop loss. This is a huge problem. With this strategy, You can specify the fixed risk price for each trade. If you specify 100 USD for the risk, this strategy calculates how much quantity to buy or sell for each entry. In the case above, this strategy guides you how much quantity to buy or sell like below. A: 2,000 qty (SL: 500pips) B: 5,000 qty (SL: 200pips) C: 10,000 qty (SL: 100pips) If you make entries with those quantity and the price hits the stop loss, You will lose the money like below. A: 100 USD B: 100 USD C: 100 USD This is what this script does. Fixed price SL. I tested this caliculation for OANDA's main 28 currency pairs forex listed below. AUDUSD, EURUSD, GBPUSD, NZDUSD, USDCAD, USDCHF, USDJPY, AUDCAD, AUDCHF, AUDJPY, AUDNZD, CADCHF, CADJPY, CHFJPY, EURAUD, EURCAD, EURCHF, EURGBP, EURJPY, EURNZD, GBPAUD, GBPCAD, GBPCHF, GBPJPY, GBPNZD, NZDCAD, NZDCHF, NZDJPY I may add more pairs later. Note: The entry strategy in this script is not intented to win. Check the result. Be careful.

Probability of Touch [racer8]This indicator calculates the probability of touch for a stop loss...the probability that it will be triggered. Does it really calculate probability? Yes, it gives you an idea of the probability of being stopped out of a trade... but results are not guaranteed as this is a theoretical formula I developed on my own. Nevertheless, use this at your own discretion...and hope you enjoy it ;) FYI: This indicator was inspired by the Probability of Touch concept in options trading!

PG ATR based Stop LossA stoploss system that enables traders to exit with limited loss or even trailing loss. Use the levels of indicator against the candle that has seen signidicant move for running positions and the candle in which a new position is taken. Example : For long Nifty Future at 14990 levels, when Indicator is showing 14820 at bottom on a 30 min chart, 14820 can be used as a stop loss, similarly for short conditions upper values above top of he candle will be followed. For medium term ongoing positions, use the levels marked against candle that offered a major move, or the candles that has put the underlying in a new price zone or range. 15-30 minutes are suitable period for intraday / short term trades. Two hours or day periods can be used for positional trades. **Queries are welcme.**

CUT MY LOSSESS - Levereged Stop loss + R / R ratio checker Hello traders! We have heard many times that keep your losses small and allow your profits to grow. But what happens is that we often make the mistake of doing high-margin trades that we cannot afford to lose. The main reason for this problem, in my opinion, is the rush to open a position and not paying attention to how much acceptable loss in each trade is for us? Is our stop loss point compatible with the loss we are willing to accept? Many of the losses we incur are not due to our erroneous analysis but to the wrong trading strategy, miscalculation of Stop Loss and failure to calculate the Risk/Reward for each trade. At least for most novice traders, these mistakes happen . This script does not have complicated logic and is designed only as a help for those who are not interested in working with calculators !! I hope that sometimes that we are very excited to buy, looking at this script can give us a serious flip to avoid risk . This is a basic script that helps us to intuitively check our stop loss in according to our leverage and to guess the approximate risk/reward of our trade. This script assumes that you always trade with half of your total capital. It is also assumed that you routinely use up to ten percent of your capital for each trade. Therefore, the first variable in this script is the amount of tolerable loss in each trade for you, which is set to 25% by default. So if you follow the previous assumptions, each trade will endanger 2.5% of your capital. Since not all analyzes are ever accurate, we need to enter into positions that have good Risk/Reward ratio, so that even if half of our analysis fails, we will profitable. Therefore, the second variable in this script is the acceptable Risk/Reward ratio for us, which is set to 1:4 by default. Also, to check the efficiency of the stop-loss with different trading leverage, I add five leverage by default from 1 to 5 as lines on the side of your stop-loss point. LeV A (Lowest Leverage-WHITE): 1 by default LeV B (AQUA): 2 by default LeV C (YELLOW): 3 by default LeV D (ORANGE): 4 by default LeV E (Highest Leverage-RED):5 by default You can change all these leverages and Acceptable margin loss and R/R ratio according to your needs. You can also hide the leverage lines you are not dealing with through the script settings . You will also see lines on the side of your target point to check your risk/reward ,so you can approximate your target according to your trading leverage and the risk/reward you accept. you can also hide these R/R lines from the setting. Important Note: This script is not designed to give you a stop loss point or take profit point. To find these points, you must use technical analysis methods , and then use this script to check the coordination of these points with your trading strategy. Using the script is simple, but I will try to explain it with a few examples.

Risk Management: Position Size & Risk RewardHere is a Risk Management Indicator that calculates stop loss and position sizing based on the volatility of the stock. Most traders use a basic 1 or 2% Risk Rule, where they will not risk more than 1 or 2% of their capital on any one trade. I went further and applied four levels of risk: 0.25%, 0.50%, 1% and 2%. How you apply these different levels of risk is what makes this indicator extremely useful. Here are some common ways to apply this script: • If the stock is extremely volatile and has a better than 50% chance of hitting the stop loss, then risk only 0.25% of your capital on that trade. • If a stock has low volatility and has less than 20% change of hitting the stop loss, then risk 2% of your capital on that trade. • Risking anywhere between 0.25% and 2% is purely based on your intuition and assessment of the market. • If you are on a losing streak and you want to cut back on your position sizing, then lowering the Risk % can help you weather the storm. • If you are on a winning streak and your entries are experiencing a higher level of success, then gradually increase the Risk % to reap bigger profits. • If you want to trade outside the noise of the market or take on more noise/risk, you can adjust the ATR Factor. • … and whatever else you can imagine using it to benefit your trading. The position size is calculated using the Capital and Risk % fields, which is the percentage of your total trading capital (a.k.a net liquidity or Capital at Risk). If you instead want to calculate the position size based on a specific amount of money, then enter the amount in the Custom Risk Amt input box. Any amount greater than 0 in the Custom Risk Amt field will override the values in the Capital and Risk % fields. The stop loss is calculated by using the ATR. The default setting is the 14 RMA, but you can change the length and smoothing of the true range moving average to your liking. Selecting a different length and smoothing affects the stop loss and position size, so choose these values very carefully. The ATR Factor is a multiplier of the ATR. The ATR Factor can be used to adjust the stop loss and move it outside of the market noise. For the more volatile stock, increase the factor to lower the stop loss and reduce the chance of getting stopped out. For stocks with less volatility , you can lower the factor to raise the stop loss and increase position size. Adjusting the ATR Factor can also be useful when you want the stop loss to be at or below key levels of support. The Market Session is the hours the market is open. The Market Session only affects the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) option, so it’s important to change these values if you’re trading the ORB and you’re outside of Eastern Standard Time or you’re trading in a foreign exchange. The ORB is a bonus to the script. When enabled, the indicator will only appear in the first green candle of the day (09:30:00 or 09:30 AM EST or the start time specified in Market Session). When using the ORB, the stop loss is based on the spread of the first candle at the Open. The spread is the difference between the High and Low of the green candle. On 1-day or higher timeframes, the indicator will be the spread of the last (or current) candle. The output of the indicator is a label overlaying the chart: 1. ATR (14 RMA x2) – This indicated that the stop loss is determined by the ATR. The x2 is the ATR Factor. If ORB is selected, then the first line will show SPREAD, instead of ATR. 2. Capital – This is your total capital or capital at risk. 3. Risk X% of Capital – The amount you’re risking on a % of the Capital. If a Custom Risk Amt is entered, then Risk Amount will be shown in place of Capital and Risk % of Capital. 4. Entry – The current price. 5. Stop Loss – The stop loss price. 6. -1R – The stop loss price and the amount that will be lost of the stop loss is hit. 7. – These are the target prices, or levels where you will want to take profit. This script is primarily meant for people who are new to active trading and who are looking for a sound risk management strategy based on market volatility . This script can also be used by the more experienced trader who is using a similar system, but also wants to see it applied as an indicator on TradingView. I’m looking forward to maintaining this script and making it better in future revisions. If you want to include or change anything you believe will be a good change or feature, then please contact me in TradingView.

coates moving averages (cma)This indicator uses three moving averages: 2 period low simple ma 2 period high simple ma 9 period least squares ma The trend is determined by the angle of the moving averages, current close relative the the 9 least squares ma (lsm) and the current close relative to the prior two periods high and low. When there are consecutive closes inside the prior two candles high and low then a range is signaled: In ranges the buy zone is between the lowest low and the lowest close of the current range. The sell zone is between the highest high and the highest close. The zones are adjusted as long as the new close is within the prior two candles range: When price closes above the 2 high ma and the 9 lsm then a bull trend is signaled if all moving averages are angled upward (as seen at #4 in the chart above and #1 the chart below ). If the 9 lsm and / or the 2 low ma continue to angle downward, following a close above the 2 high ma and 9 lsm, then a prolonged range or reversal is expected (#2 in the chart below): During a bull trend the buy zone is between the 2 low ma and the 9 lsm. The profit target is the 2 high ma: During dip buying opportunities price should resist closing below the 9 lsm. If there is one close below the 9 lsm then it is a canary in the coalmine that tells us to proceed with caution. This will often signal a range, based on the conditions outlined above. To avoid a prolonged range, or reversal, price needs to immediately react in the direction of the prevailing trend: If the moving averages are angled down and the most recent close is below the 2 low ma and 9 lsm then trend is fully bearish: During a bear trend the short zone is between the 2 high ma and 9 lsm. The profit target is the 2 low ma: When the 2 high ma angles down and the 2 low ma angles up while price closes inside both mas then it indicates a cma squeeze: Volatility is expected in the direction of the breakout following the squeeze. In this situation traps / shakeouts are common. If there is a wick outside the cma, with a close inside, then it indicates a trap / shakeout. If there is a close outside the 2 high / low ma then it signals a breakout. A trend is considered balanced when the 9 lsm is roughly equidistant from the 2 low and 2 high mas. If the 9 lsm crosses the 2 high or 2 low ma then it signals exhaustion / imbalance. For a stop loss I use the prior three periods low, for bull trends, and the prior three periods high for bear trends. I would expect other reliable stops, such as the parabolic sar or bill williams fractal, to be effective as well. The default moving averages should be very effective on all timeframes and assets classes, however this indicator was developed for bitcoin with a focus on higher timeframes such as the 4h, daily and weekly. As with any other technical indicator there will be bad signals. Proceed with caution and never risk more than you are willing to lose.

Shares Risk (Long)Ever struggle to know how many shares you should be placing your order with? Risk is different for every person and every stock. This can help. In the example above, I've added this indicator the the chart. I then specified: Risk Amount ($) = $500. (The max amount I'm willing to risk.) Risk Source = (another indicator) Lower Limit 3 . (See Lower Limits for more details) Source Risk (%) = 0.0 (The default is 5.0 expecting the Risk Source to be the close.**) Based upon how much I'm willing to risk, and the price difference between the close and Risk Source , this indicator will show the number of shares to purchase such that if the price drops to the stop level specified, my value loss should be limited to the Risk Amount . 333 shares is the value calculated for this example (latest bar). You can easily see how many shares you need to purchase for the lastest bar as well as track the previous values on the chart and the indicator cursor data. --- ** WARNING: There's no magic here. It's just math. So if you specify another indicator as the source, the values could get a bit strange and if the price is very close to the stop level, the number of shares could be unreasonably high. To help avoid this you can increase the minimum percent.

Tiger's Stop - Objective Stoploss SettingTrading is a lot about risk management too. I created this script to help with setting and moving a proper stop-loss. It plots an area that is a result of adding and subtracting both average true range and something I call "false range". ►The Average True Range is calculated as the candle's high-low. If there is a gap, it is added to complete the result. ►My own False Range just candle bodies. It is calculated as an absolute value of (close-open). Then, Rolling Moving Average is applied on both ATR and False Range to get an idea of how far the price tends to extend out of pure randomness. The resulting value is multiplied by a Multiplier. The next step is an addition of the values to the higher part of the candle for short or a lower part of the candle for long. I prefer a special calculation instead of using Highs and Lows because it allows for more precise observation and stop-loss set up for less wicky symbols. ►►►Additional Functions • Smoothing - applies moving average to candles from which range distance is calculated. This can achieve good smoothness but higher values will lead to using outdated price in the SL area calculation. • Enable/Disable - if you know the direction you are going to trade in, it is good to disable either Long Stop-Loss Area or Short Stop-Loss Area. Just untick it in the settings. ►►►Actual Using Before using the script to set your stop-loss, check the historical data and find a similar set-up. Is it engulfing you use as a trigger? Find a different one and see how effective the stop-loss based on the ATR*multiplier was. This will help you to optimize Multiplier value. A picture shows such research for a double top. You should find more similar situations to find an optimal value. Ultimately, the indicator still gives you relatively a lot of freedom with your stop-loss settings (at least, that is with the default settings). You need to decide how loose stop-loss you want to set. Average True Range is the furthermost part which will make for a very large stop-loss, on the other hand, False Range might be triggered by a villainous wick unnecessarily. The choice should depend on the specific symbol you trade and perhaps, you will learn to set stops regardless of the indicator. A little trick : 1. You can set the loosest stop-loss and set a TradingView alert for where the tightest stop-loss would be. When alerted, you will get the opportunity to reconsider the trade and take a loss if needs be or exit if a candle closes there. 2. Mostly for cryptocurrencies, you can set the tightest stop-loss to protect yourself from sudden spikes. If the price approaches it slowly enough, you can move the stop-loss to the further part of the channel. This is not the same as moving stop-loss indefinitely with hopes of reversal if you plan it from the beginning and a smaller stop is meant to protect you from spikes that are not always predictable and drive to both directions. ►►►Advantages of trailing stop-loss I usually stick with my original stop-loss instead of moving to break even. If my entry area was functional support once, it may work again and is, therefore, still a good entry zone. But an alternative used to preserve as much of the profit as possible is trailing. Trailing is setting a specific value in ticks or a calculation of how to move the stop-loss whenever the price moves in your favor. Tiger's Stop can be used this way. Whenever there is a new value as the candle closes and that value is closer to price than your current stop-loss, you can update it. However, if it moves further from your price, don't change the stop-loss. This can be a little tiresome if you do it manually but should be worth the effort. I usually start trailing only after the price moves significantly in my favor that allowing it to return to the entry price would not make any sense. ►►►Feedback and optimization The preview chart is chosen entirely at random and the values are not optimized for any specific symbol. If you opt to use it, let me know which values work for you the best, I'll add it to the description when I update it. Furthermore, let me know if you think any sort of alerts would be useful with my script. Good luck!
