TradingToolsLibrary: Modular Strategy Entries, Exits, Filters, and Risk Controls
Summary
This Pine Script library provides reusable components for assembling trading strategies, including entry and exit definitions, filters, qualifiers, dollar-cost averaging, stop losses, take profits, trailing exits, and ATR-related controls. Its types expose settings for enabling or disabling components, associating them with particular entries or groups, and defining conditions that determine whether a trade action is allowed. Dynamic conditions can compare changing values using configurable operators, with prior values available for crossover-style checks.
Qualifiers can be activated, disqualified, or made to expire after a configured number of bars or when a condition is met. The excerpt also shows order placement for exits and additional entries, including equity-based sizing and optional order comments or labels. This is infrastructure for strategy construction rather than a standalone trading method; the document gives no market-specific rules, empirical results, or performance evidence. Users must supply meaningful conditions and validate how the library’s many settings behave in their own strategy and testing environment.
Key ideas
- The library offers reusable structures for strategy entries, exits, filters, and qualifiers.
- Conditions can be configured statically or dynamically, including comparisons and crossover-style checks.
- Qualifiers can allow or disallow actions and can expire after bars or condition events.
