Hi James, I think this is what you want here. Just add another condition to your IF statements: if buy and close > BullMarket lbl = label.new(bar_index, low, "Buy") label.set_color(lbl, color.green) label.set_yloc(lbl, yloc.belowbar) label.set_style(lbl, label.style_label_up) if sell and close < Bul...

Totally agree with your logic here. I am also working fulltime, so I specifically designed my latest work to accommodate that schedule. So for me that meant higher timeframe trade style (I chose 4hour), and full automation. This has worked pretty well. I do feel confident during the day when the tra...

Depends on your trading style. For example you could have your script only look for setups, then alert you to review those setups (and allow you the choice to take the trade or not) Or you could work to build a fully-automated bot - that's what I'm working on. In that case, you would create your scr...

Hey looks like you're making good progress! One thing I learned is that you can simplify date inputs with this new parameter they added in Dec 2020: https://www.tradingview.com/blog/en/new-parameter-for-date-input-added-to-pine-21812/ (that allows you to get the entire date/time in one input, instea...

I think you are mixing up the language here. "Built-in" is a type of indicator that is built by TradingView, and is is available to directly reference in your pinescript. But the indicator you are referring to "SSL Hybrid" is not one of these - it is a custom indicator written by another user. But y...

I just found this post again, and now it is November 20th of the same year, so 9 months later. I am still strongly focused on trading and I do not think I've reached any sort of peak in this energy. In fact I'm optimizing myself every day and my productivity has truly gone vertical. I'm still workin...

I'd say at least $150k in the US if you're good

In a previous life, I remember software that could perform auto-optimization on a trading strategy. Can't remember which platform this was exactly. I've added inputs to some of my critical strategy components, such as the dynamic stop (I'm currently using a lower-timeframe PSAR for this). It's fun t...

So I found a workaround for this. Since I'm still a newb, my scripts are very simple. In this case, I was able to easily move the ChopZone function I wrote directly into my strategy script. So now I no longer need to connect to an external indicator. But I'd still like to know if it's possible to us...

Hey I have one more newb question on this. I was able to adjust the ChopZone to calculate properly with multi-timeframe now. This means I can look at all 3 timeframes inside this indicator and generate a single signal plot. I am currently plotting a 1 for long signal and -1 for short signal. All of ...
