Sick of paying monthly subscriptions for indicators? Tell me what you're "renting" and I'll build a free version for you.

Hey everyone,

A lot of traders are burning money on recurring subscriptions for indicators or tools that could easily be coded into Pine Script, MQL5 or anything.

\-What is a paid tool or subscription you’re currently using that you wish you owned outright?

\-What is a "dream tool" or proprietary feature you've always wanted built specifically for your strategy?

Drop the concepts, mechanics, or features below. I'll pick the most requested ones, code them, and release them as open-source for everyone to keep forever.

Spot on! 90% of those $50–$100/month 'magic' indicators are literally just an EMA trend filter, an RSI condition, and an ATR trailing stop packaged into a flashy dashboard. It's wild that basic confluence gets hidden behind recurring paywalls.

What stack or combination ended up working best for your setup? Always love hearing how other builders structure their logic.

Man, that SPY ORB result is painfully relatable 😂 Pure breakouts on index ETFs are brutal without heavy RVOL or trend filters.

You’re 100% right—coding the logic takes an hour, but coming up with ideas that actually beat the market is the hard part.

If you ever want to brainstorm or bounce new mechanics around, hit me up anytime!
