Trailing Stops/Choose a Day of the WeekThis would be my second ever published strategy. It is almost the same as my first ever published script . I've been working primarily on UGAZ and DGAZ . This is basically a statistical trade. It buys every morning near market open (or by choosing a "time constraint"), then immediately places a trailing stop at a specified amount in ticks (if used on UGAZ a tick = $0.01, if used on NG at tick = $0.001). I've found between 2% and 3% works well for the trailing stop (ie. if UGAZ = $75, a 3% trailing stop = $2.25) -----What is different from my first strategy?------ You can test the trailing stop strategy one 1 day of the week. Days of the week are assigned numbers. Sunday=1, Monday=2, Tuesday=3 and so on. Just choose a number that correlates to the day of the week you want to test. The Trailing stop may go past that day, that's a good thing if it's making money. -- Go long/Short is just that, it will buy shares/contracts or short them. -- Trades per day. This may not be a good choice, when left on "2", it will trade once per day. If set above 2 and there is time left for another trade, an order will enter on the open of the next candle. I'm am still working on ideas for this. -- Time constraints. When you select this check box, the strategy will limit an entry to the time specified below the "Use Time Constraints" check box. An Exit order will still continue past this window of time until it is stopped out. ---- very important ---- Due to decay, leveraged ETFs will give false results if the price gets far out of range. For example, your ETF is trading around $20 and you choose a 1 hour chart, it may back test back to a time before a reverse split. If the price gets to be too large, like $200, or $1200, the movement on the chart creates false indication of profit/loss. --- Most important. --- Do not trade off this strategy, you may lose lots of money. This is for educational use only. Good luck

Trailing Stops Only - For Leveraged ETFs (UGAZ/DGAZ)Looking for Statistical trades that work. This one seems to work on some Leveraged ETFs with a lot of noise like UGAZ/DGAZ. It can also be used on Futures Contracts, but be sure to change up the type of investment from % of equity to contracts. Also one point I'm trying to make with this strategy is the trades are best made in the morning around market open. When used with Contracts, be sure to make use of the time settings. It will limit buying between the hours set. Selling will occur at any time the trailing stop is triggered. This Strategy is best used on 5min or 15min charts. !!!! very important !!!!

ATR Trailing Stop Bands [R] This is based on the Average True Range Trailing Stops Strategy by Sylvain Vervoort, coded on TV HPotter. I have added Bands to see potential short and long stop loss zones before the indicator signals to switch itself, also changed color on the main Trailing Stop based on whether it is short or long, added increased stop loss hunt protection by combining with my Wickiness indicator to add Wick Protection, based on either Average or Maximum Wicks, to prevent your stop getting wicked out. Experiment with different timeframes according to your trading style and how long you like to hold a trade. This indicator does not intend to tell you when to take profit, just how to place your stop to give you the best chance of not getting stopped out too early and to minimise risk by trailing it safely. May you all never be stop hunted again.

Double EMA with stop loss indicatorThis is an updated version of my previous stop loss script. I've added a double EMA line and modified the stop as below; In an uptrend.... 1. a yellow dot will appear once it's time to move your stop. The yellow dot will display at the level of the stop loss. Place your stop 1 pip below the dot. 2. The yellow dot will only appear if a new higher low has formed and has been confirmed. Also the current candle must have broken the high of a previous bullish candle or the dot will not appear. 3. The dot will also appear if there is a likely reversal of the current trend. Also works in downtrends.....

CamarillaStrategy -V1 - H4 and L4 breakout - exits addedExits added using trailing stops. 2.6 Profit Factor and 76% Profitable on SPY , 5M - I think it's a pretty good number for an automated strategy that uses Pivots. I don't think it's possible to add volume and day open price in relation to pivot levels -- that's what I do manually .. Still trying to add EMA for exits.. it will increase profitability. You can play in pinescript with trailing stops entries..
