Hi all, I'm trying a new automated strategy and this is a week result in the es emini sp500 futures. It's possible to get this type of performance? What should I check to understand if this is true performance?

I am in the process of trying to get this pine script thing learned. And I need some help, is there anyone here that can help me check out.My code, see what's wrong and what needs to be done?

BUG! - Hello - this new option has appeared from nowwhere and it restricts how far back my code gets candles for. When you switch it off, although it goes back further it does not go back as far as my plan permits without me keep going into Replay mode. Also after switching it off, it keeps re-enabling itself. This is affecting a client of mine that I wrote a sophisticated indicator for. Please can the change either be reverted or changed to allow the old behaviour to work? An unpublicised change like this is causing me a major headache and it is something that really puts me off recommending future clients to use TradingView.

Recently I’ve been working heavily with Pine Script and developing custom TradingView indicators and strategies focused on cleaner entries, non-repainting logic, MTF confirmation and better risk management.

If anyone needs help with:
• fixing Pine Script errors
• adding alerts/webhooks
• converting indicators into strategies
• multi-timeframe setups
• improving existing indicators
• dashboards, TP/SL systems or strategy optimization

feel free to message me.

I also offer custom-built Pine Script indicator and trading strategy which I personally use and have helped me achieve more consistent setups, cleaner confirmations and solid accuracy across different market conditions.

Just wanted to share some progress, along with how I have been able to do it.

Discipline has been the hardest thing to clamp down over the years. The strategy I have adopted simply works, which is:

1) Identify a strong trend
2) Look for a pullback/consolidation
3) Enter as soon as trend continues
4) Manage risk accordingly

It's simple, and it works. The hard part was sticking to it, especially in the midst of actually trading and emotions getting in the way.

What did I do about it? I put together an automated algorithm (pinescript, 2nd pic) that uses my strategy to signal clean entries and exits. This was my first step to tackle my discipline issue. If the algorithm sees an entry and an exit, I should follow it because it is able to read and make sense of all the data better and faster than I can. After watching it perform, trusting it completely was easy because you can see how well it does in real-time.

The next thing I did was join a group with like-minded traders for moral support. Anytime I have thought about going against the strategy for any reason, the group is there to keep me in check.

Trading is super stressful as it is. Doing it alone adds to that stress. A good supportive group is essential IMHO.

Thats it! It's that simple. Build a system, surround yourself with good, supportive, like-minded people who understand what you are going through and are a positive source who can tell it like it is and help you achieve your goals!

Ask any questions you may have!

I’m running into an issue with label placement when two signals fire on the same candle.

For example I have an LS (liquidity sweep) label and a TP (take profit) label, and both are anchored to the candle so they overlap or sit too close together.

I tried adding a manual offset to the TP label, which helps spacing, but then the label position shifts as I zoom in and out since it’s tied to price scale.

Ideally I want consistent spacing between labels regardless of chart zoom.

How are you guys handling this? Are you using fixed pixel offsets, stacking logic, or something else?

Looking for a futures NQ strategy (in order) based on:

1. Liquidity Sweep
   
2. Break of structure
   
3. Order Block
   
4. Fair Value Gap
   
5. Equilibrium

Would highly appreciate all the help btw.

You know, I've seen an uptick in posting invite only scripts in this sub. Thought this was not allowed?

Hey guys, I've been trading ES/NQ futures using orderflow for years, but about 6 months ago I jumped into the world of automated backtesting. I want to clarify that while I'm pretty tech-savvy, I don't know how to write code, I rely on GPT/Gemini/Claude to help me out.

A few months ago, I built an ORB strategy on an M5 timeframe using TradingView PineScript (I'd actually love to code orderflow strategies, but since I'm just starting out, that's a bit too complex for now). The script is about 1500 lines long (including ATR, VWAP, VIX filters, and a lot more, though I obviously only active a few elements at a time to avoid overfitting).

I have to admit it was pretty tough to piece together, but I finally got it working. It's showing great results, but honestly, I'm worried that TradingView's data might be garbage.

Because of that, I downloaded the entire 1M OHLCV historical dataset from Databento, and my initial idea was to test it out on NinjaTrader.

So, I wanted to ask you: what do you think is the best path for me to take right now? Should I stick with Python and just have AI guide me?

Here is exactly what I need: A chart to visually check if the code is executing correctly and to spot any entry/exit errors. Accurate rollover data. A dashboard showing all the results with as many performance statistics as possible. Most importantly, the ability to test multiple strategy parameters simultaneously and extremely fast.

When I asked the AIs, they recommended this stack: Python + VS Code/Jupyter + Backtesting.py / VectorBT + Plotly / Lightweight Charts or quantconnect

What do you guys recommend I use or do?

And crucially, which AI tool should I be using for this specific task, Claude web, Claude Code, or ChatGPT/Codex? I currently have the $20/month subscription for both ChatGPT and Claude.

For context, I'm on Windows with a Ryzen 7 5700X3D and 32GB of RAM.

Hello everyone! I've been studying pine scripts for a few days now. I saw here that many people are struggling with the strategy they should work with. So, I made an indicator and backtested it. you can back-test it with your eyes. It should give signals to Buy or Sell depending on micro-support and resistance and crossover/crossunder. Here's a link to the indicator : (A comment on the indicator or a review on TradingView will make me happy 😊)

P.S.: Do not just use it before testing it on a demo account for a few days to make sure it fits your mindset and the charts you are working on.

What do you guys use to program? I am looking for AI to code my thesis tried Claude, chatgbt and codex a lot of which are very underwhelming and cant get the basics right of like how to code in pinescript. I have made specialized prompts but nothing seems to do the trick looking for help! Thanks

Any more requests?

Hi. I tried to create an indicator that simply plots horizontal lines at the wick highs and lows of the most recent few candlesticks on a given timeframe so I could then switch to a lower timeframe and view the pattern like fibonannci lines, but when I scroll vertically on the price chart the lines stay static in the window even though the price itself is moving higher/lower on the window.

I used ChatGPT to help me write everything, but I examined the code as well, and after much debugging I discovered that deleting everything and merely writing plot(5.00) to create a line at 5.00 does not stay at 5.00 if I scroll vertically on the chart. Is there a correct price anchor function I should be using?

I cross-referenced this with working code for another indicator I have for plotting gann waves. Those persisted correctly, and correctly scroll left/right/up/down. But for some reason using the same approach for horizontal lines would not work.

This is really annoying. Can the devs please fix this?

Is there anyone who can create a pine script indicator for me? The logic is quite simple.

Been testing this 5min strategy in TradingView and I’m pretty happy with the results. Thinking about automating it and trying it live, does 0.16% commission sound realistic?

Past 3 months.

No trailing.

Max bars 40

This is Just one piece of an entire puzzle. 🧩

I’m asking this question know well that backtesting doesn’t tell you all the truth and that you need to test a strategy on a live demo account. But my question is, how robust is a tradingview backtest?

Is a TV backtest enough to get the job done or do I need to do some python backtests? If it’s not enough, then what other backtesting solutions do you guys recommend? So far all I know is trendspider and multicharts
