This document presents a trend-following method using four exponential moving averages with periods of 9, 21, 50, and 200 days. A long entry requires the close and each shorter average to be above the next longer average, creating a fully ordered bullish…

This script builds a Donchian channel from rolling highs and lows, then describes sloped support and resistance lines that update when those extremes are renewed. The upper and lower slopes are intended to serve as resistance and support, with candle closes…
This strategy seeks pullback entries in the direction of a strong trend, using a 50-period moving average channel, ADX, and long- and short-period Elder Force Index (EFI). The channel is formed from moving averages of highs and lows, while ADX filters for…
This long-only strategy uses fast, intermediate, and slow exponential moving averages to identify entries in rising trends. It enters when the fast EMA crosses above the intermediate EMA while both intermediate and slow EMA slopes are positive, or when the…
This trend strategy combines three technical tools: SuperTrend for directional signals, square-root-derived Gann levels for possible support and resistance, and fast and slow smoothed Heikin Ashi series to help confirm direction. The document describes…
This strategy estimates trend direction by measuring each close’s distance from a simple moving average and summing those gaps over a rolling window. A positive total signals a long position and a negative total signals a short position; positions close when…
This strategy combines a fast and slow Hull-style moving average signal with Ichimoku components to confirm entries and exits. The code derives two smoothed lines from weighted moving averages; their relative position, price location, and Ichimoku…
This document presents the opening portion of a strategy script organized around signals across very short to longer chart intervals. It calculates exponential averages of highs and lows on five-second, fifteen-second, one-minute, five-minute, and…
This strategy pairs seven-period price extremes with a Trendflex measure and Bollinger-style bands. Its description says to go long on a break below a recent low and short on a break above a recent high, then filter those signals using trend strength and…
This strategy combines a stack of smoothed and exponential moving averages with MACD to take long or short positions. It describes using the ordering of three shorter SMMA lines, a longer SMMA, and an EMA as a trend filter, while requiring price to sit above…
This configurable crossover strategy enters long when a selected price series or moving average crosses above another, and short when it crosses below. The user can choose among four moving-average types and periods, select the two series compared, and…
This crypto spot strategy uses a Donchian-style breakout check on weekly bars, constructed from daily data, to choose among full exposure, balanced holdings, or cash. A new high relative to the prior channel leads to full investment. If price remains above a…
This Bitcoin futures strategy combines a 5-period and 13-period exponential moving average (EMA) spread with VWAP to identify directional momentum. Long conditions generally require the faster EMA to exceed the slower one and price to be above VWAP; short…
This long-only strategy combines simple moving averages with the Relative Strength Index. It opens a long position when the closing price crosses above a slower SMA. It exits when RSI crosses below 70 or rises above 75, or when price crosses below either a…
This strategy uses Ichimoku Span B as a trend and support or resistance reference. Span B is calculated from the midpoint of the highest high and lowest low over a lookback period. The strategy buys when the close is above the line and sells short when it is…
This strategy uses crossovers between moving averages of opening and closing prices to generate long and short signals. When the smoothed close series crosses above the smoothed open series, it enters long; a downward cross exits a long or can open a short,…
This strategy pairs a rolling high-low breakout rule with a two-line trend oscillator. A close above the prior rolling high supplies a long signal when the oscillator is bullish; a close below the prior rolling low combines with a bearish oscillator reading…
This strategy uses eight Ichimoku-related conditions to assess direction: price relationships to displaced price and the conversion line, conversion versus base line, and the relative recency of several bullish and bearish crossovers involving the lagging…
This strategy defines a trading box from recent daily price extremes and enters when the daily close crosses beyond its boundaries. A close above the top box triggers a long entry, while a close below the bottom box triggers a short entry. The box length is…
This indicator combines HalfTrend reversal arrows with a Hull Estimate moving average (HEMA) and a simple moving average (SMA) to define directional entry signals. A long signal requires HEMA above SMA, a bullish HalfTrend turn, and the candle body above…
This strategy uses a 200-day simple moving average as a trend filter and adds separate entry and exit buffers. It enters a long position when the reference price rises above the moving average by the stated entry margin, and exits below it by the smaller…
This document describes a configurable Donchian channel system for long and short trading, aimed especially at volatile cryptocurrency markets. It calculates recent highs and lows for channel boundaries and uses separate lookback periods for entries and…
This long-only strategy uses a 50-period and 200-period EMA crossover on daily SPY data. It permits entries for a configurable number of bars after a bullish crossover, provided the fast EMA remains above the slow EMA and the separation and slow-EMA slope…
This strategy uses the Ichimoku cloud to identify medium- to long-term directional moves. Its entry rule compares the close with the cloud boundaries, calculated from Senkou Span A and B: a close crossing above the upper boundary signals a long, while a…
