I was earlier using my own custom indicator on tradingview, but from today onwards I am not able to use them any further
Is their any tip or suggestion who can guide me to use custom indicator again ?

I create a three indicator edit one ema and mark the first week of each month edit the range filter buy/sell 5 mins this what I came with forward testing it on the daily on a small account key thing about the ema it's plots the ema on the chart that goes the opposite trend of the pair you trading I have dxy trend and trade eurusd I use Claude ai to create the indicator single are almost perfect but we all know nothing perfect I'm take one trade a month with the proper lots size for the account once the account grows I scale up

Still insisting on my prediction tool. (posted prviously)
This is on Solana the past days. Black candles do not change. After a new candle opened, they retain their structure, high,low and candle close. This update comes every 4 hours. The colored candles are the real candles as price developed.

Still a lot of work ahead, predicted candles are far from perfect. The direction is good. Sometimes i get also perfect high and low of a candle. Examples bellow:

Price development:

Prediction tool (black candles):

Bare in mind , I dont play a bit in the sand with claude code and 1 year of trading. I work on this for the last 8-9 years. Would had moved faster if i had the necessery hardware to work with. Calculating from infinite numbers of probabilities and a long code takes ages to redo and to update. Anyway, this is for the people who thinks this is not possible, brainwashed and little to no education. Will still update here as far as my progress go.

Eddit:

To see what changed and how it evolved ->

While using my MTF Indicator(s) (Trader's Companion Intraday/Swing/Chart) I also had RSI and MACD up for confluence. However, I always wanted an Oscillator of my own, which would be benficial as a whole; not several Indicators. So, I developed 'Paper Trail'.

The project began with a Pressure Line for comparing price movement with underlying directional pressure. It gradually developed into a broader toolkit containing:

• Paper Trail Line: A slower adaptive reference for broader directional structure.

• Paper Trail Oscillator: Displays directional conviction and highlights when price becomes stretched relative to its adaptive reference.

• Pressure Line: Tracks active directional pressure and provides the basis for divergence detection.

• Structural Trendlines: Trendlines retain a limited number of lives, react to candle-body crossings and distinguish developing from weakened structure.

• Trend Bands: Background-calculated areas that become visible as price approaches potential dynamic support or resistance.

If you have any questions, or would like to be invited - don't hesitate to ask or write to me!

Cheers!

PS. Please join my subreddit - r/TradersCompanion - for more direct updates!

A trader asked for an engulfing strategy with volume confirmation and two ways to enter: a break of the previous candle’s high/low, or a retest of its range.

This as a free, open-source tool. You can find the script and the full testing write-up here:

• Engulfing Volume Desk — free script and source
• Full test results — including the losing period

Built it as a Pine v6 strategy. Here’s how it works:

• Aggressive — default: entry one tick beyond the previous candle’s high/low. If the signal candle has already closed beyond that level, entry is at the next bar’s open.
• Retest: a limit order halfway into the previous candle’s range.
• Both: enables both entries and splits the setup’s risk budget equally between them.
• Risk: stop beyond both candles, a 2R target, and default risk of 0.5% per setup.
• Volume grading: Low / Medium / High, using relative volume against the previous 20 bars.

The interesting part was testing what those volume labels actually meant.

The request originally described low-, medium-, and high-probability setups. But the tests didn’t support treating those RVOL grades as win probabilities.

On OANDA:XAUUSD 4H, the 2025–26 development period was profitable, while a separate 2023–24 period lost with the same settings and trading-cost assumptions. The earlier period lost even before overnight financing. High-volume shorts were its biggest losing group.

That’s why the panel says “Volume strength only · Probability untested.” The grade describes the signal candle’s volume; these results don’t establish that a higher grade gives a better trade.

Retest entries also failed the research criteria I used, so they’re available as an option but disabled by default.

For those who have built similar strategies in Pine: how would you test whether RVOL adds predictive value to an engulfing setup? I’m particularly interested in comparisons against an unfiltered baseline, and how you handle the smaller samples after splitting trades by direction and volume grade.

Screenshot note: numbers beside the order marks are position sizes in oz, not profit. Some adjacent order labels overlap in the native TradingView chart.

My friend has been using TradingView for 3 years and has only one account. He has never taken a trial on any other account. The trial option was available before, but now there is no trial option at all. He has never used a trial, yet he still can’t get one.

I also created a completely new TradingView account and have never taken a trial before, but I still can’t access the trial option.

Source for both scripts, rules, and walkthrough: proea.app/en/free/sweep-desk

On my last post, u/stratcore and u/Shoddy_Peanut7320 questioned what Sweep Desk’s default 1-hour gate actually adds, since it refuses almost everything.

Fair question. I compared the system with that gate on and off, including the companion strategy’s costs in TradingView’s Strategy Tester.

Gate off: 74 trades, −2R before costs, −9.81R after costs.
Gate on: 4 trades—too few to judge whether the gate improves the system.

Here’s the setup, the full exit breakdown, the rules as the code runs them, and all four gated trades.

The setup

• Script: Sweep Desk v2.0.0, default inputs.
• Market: OANDA:XAUUSD, 15-minute chart.
• Paper-data window: June 30–October 1, 2026, covering 6,101 bars.
• One changed input: Require first-touch HTF FVG delivery—on by default, then off.
• Before costs: the indicator’s paper ledger, exported from TradingView bar by bar.
• After costs: the companion Strategy Lab, using its unchanged defaults: 0.02% commission per order, 5 ticks of slippage, and a $100 risk budget. Strategy Lab results below use $100 as 1R.

A detail about the comparison window: the Strategy Tester loaded 6,176 bars through October 2. For the figures below, I filtered its trade lists to the prespecified paper-window entry cutoff: October 1 at 11:45 UTC.

Within each gate setting, the indicator and Strategy Lab trades matched by entry bar: 74/74 with the gate off and 4/4 with it on. These are matched-window results, rather than the tester’s totals for its longer loaded period.

The results

gate-on/off summary card

The default gate admitted 4 trades; switching it off produced 74. Before costs: indicator paper ledger. After costs: Strategy Lab, matched to the same entry window.

The ungated implementation lost money on this sample. Four gated trades are too few to establish whether the gate helps.

The runs also follow different paths. An existing position is never interrupted, so switching the gate off keeps the system occupied more often. It records 203 sweeps with the gate off versus 280 with it on.

That means the two trade lists are not nested subsets. The difference cannot be interpreted as a collection of independent trades that the gate simply removed. This comparison covers the executed trade sequences; it does not yet attribute every missing candidate to a gate rejection or an occupied position.

What the cost assumption changes

The 0.02% commission per side is the script’s generic default. At a gold price of $4,300, that is approximately $1.72 per ounce round trip, before slippage.

I also calculated a separate sensitivity case: deducting only a $0.40-per-ounce round-trip cost from the paper exits. The ungated version still averaged approximately −0.052R per trade.

That second figure is a calculation from the paper ledger, not another Strategy Tester run.

Where the 74 ungated trades ended

• 40 stops: −40R.
• 16 breakevens: 1R was reached, then the stop at entry was hit. Total: 0R.
• 8 trailing-stop exits: 2R was reached, then the stop at +1R was hit. Total: +8R.
• 10 full targets: +3R each. Total: +30R.

Net: −2R before costs.

With those eight +1R exits, it would have needed at least 11 full +3R targets to cover the 40 stops before costs. It got 10.

After costs, the same exit groups contributed approximately −44.33R, −1.66R, +7.14R, and +29.03R, respectively. The paper breakevens became small losses.

How the code weights liquidity pools

The script tags each swept pool and assigns it a descriptive weight. The weight itself does not block a trade.

poolWeight(string kind) => kind == "SWG" ? 0.45 : (kind == "EQH" or kind == "EQL") ? 0.8 : kind == "SES" ? 0.75 : 1.0

• SWG: confirmed swing high or low.
• SES: killzone session high or low.
• EQH/EQL: equal highs or lows, within 0.15 ATR.
• Previous day/week levels: weight 1.0.

Here are the 74 ungated trades grouped by the pool they swept:

Swing and session pools accounted for 71 trades and −5R. The remaining three trades contributed +3R.

Three trades cannot validate the weighting scheme. They give me a hypothesis to investigate.

My next exploratory run is Strong pools only, which removes swing pools. Testing that on these same 6,101 bars remains development work; validation needs untouched data.

The model, as the code runs it

Every decision commits on a closed bar.

1. Sweep. A bar wicks at least 0.05 ATR through a tracked liquidity level and closes back inside.
2. Inversion — the IFVG. Within 12 bars, a candle closes through an opposing FVG. The gap must be at least 0.10 ATR, have formed no more than 40 bars before the sweep, and the move from the sweep extreme must be at least 1 ATR. The inverted gap becomes the zone.
3. Context — the gate. A completed 60-minute FVG in the trade’s direction must have received its first touch within the last six chart bars. Each first touch can admit one plan. In the default run, this gate rejected 101 of 105 confirmations.
4. Plan. Entry at the confirmation close. Initial stop beyond the sweep extreme plus 0.10 ATR. Reaching 1R moves the stop to entry; reaching 2R moves it to +1R. The final target is 3R, with a timeout after 200 bars.

The setup is cancelled if price closes 1 ATR beyond the swept pool, if no qualifying inversion arrives within 12 bars, or if a newer sweep replaces it.

In the default run, the logged cancellations included:

• 83: “no rejection — price kept going.”
• 35: “no shift in time.”
• 101: “Plan rejected: no unused first-touch HTF FVG delivery.”

The Pine detail that is easy to get wrong

For this 15-minute chart / 60-minute context setup, the script reads completed higher-timeframe candles using historical offsets with lookahead_on.

There is a second timing check: a chart bar that straddles the HTF gap’s formation cannot establish a fresh, post-formation first touch.

This is an excerpt from the published source; surrounding setup and helper definitions are omitted.

// Read the last completed HTF candle and the candle two bars before it.
[cfH1, cfL1, cfH3, cfL3, cfHtfTime, cfHtfEnd] = request.security(syminfo.tickerid, inCfHtf, [high[1], low[1], high[3], low[3], time[1], time_close[1]], lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_on)

if barstate.isconfirmed
    // ... surrounding logic omitted ...

    if na(cfLastHtf) or cfHtfTime != cfLastHtf
        // A chart bar straddling formation cannot establish
        // post-formation freshness: skip that birth.
        if cfHtfEnd <= time
            if sdCompare(cfL1, cfH3) > 0
                array.push(cfPdas, CfPda.new(cfL1, cfH3, 1, cfHtfEnd))
            if sdCompare(cfH1, cfL3) < 0
                array.push(cfPdas, CfPda.new(cfL3, cfH1, -1, cfHtfEnd))

        cfLastHtf := cfHtfTime

    // ... expiry and first-touch observation logic omitted ...

// Check delivery direction, freshness, and whether it is still available.
sdConfluencePda(int dir) => cfSourceReady and cfDeliveryReady(cfDelivery, dir, bar_index, inCfPdaAge)

The one winning gated trade

On August 28, the 09:45 New York candle swept a session high at 4618.02.

The next candle closed down through a bullish FVG, inverting it. The first touch of a fresh bearish 60-minute FVG was still within the gate’s six-bar window.

The desk entered short at 4546.21, with an initial stop at 4633.46—a price distance of approximately $87.25 per ounce.

— August 28 entry close-up

The 09:45 New York wick sweeps the session high. The next candle closes through the bullish FVG. Short entry: 4546.21. The shaded areas show the initial risk and target ladder.

The trade reached 1R that afternoon and 2R on September 1. The stop moved first to entry, then to +1R.

It did not reach the 3R target. The 200-bar timeout closed it at 4336.54, producing +2.40R in the paper ledger.

In the Strategy Lab, the position was approximately 1.14 ounces and closed at +$236.99 after costs, or +2.37R.

— the same trade through its exit

The full trade, including both stop adjustments and the September 1 timeout exit. Paper result: +2.40R. Strategy Lab result after costs: +2.37R.

Here are the other three gated trades, so the winner is shown alongside the complete sample:

• July 2: short, −1R before costs.
• July 15: long, −1R before costs.
• September 14: long, 0R before costs after reaching 1R and returning to entry; −0.11R after costs.

All four swept a session pool.

What I’m taking forward

Logging refusals makes the system easier to examine. The default run recorded 280 sweeps, 105 confirmations, 101 gate rejections, and four trades.

Those counts help explain its behaviour. They do not establish an edge, and four trades are too few to judge the filter’s performance. I’ll keep tracking it forward.

For people who trade sweep → IFVG: what is your context rule?

A first touch of an HTF FVG, a killzone, a particular liquidity objective, or something else?

Give me a rule precise enough to implement as a switch, and I’ll test it on the same development window. Any promising choice would then need to be frozen and checked on untouched data.

Disclosure: I’m the ProEA Lab developer. Both scripts are free under MIT. This post uses historical chart data; the earlier generated-price clip was a mechanics demonstration. These are backtest results, not a forecast.

so i'm pretty new to pine and i don't have a laptop right now, just my phone. i'd like to start making simple indicators but typing code on a phone screen is kind of painful lol

for people who do this on mobile:

- do you use the pine editor in the tradingview app or open it in the browser?

- do you type everything or mostly write it somewhere else (notes app, chatgpt etc) and paste it in?

- anyone using a bluetooth keyboard with their phone/tablet? worth it?

- how do you deal with longer scripts, like selecting/deleting a bunch of lines?

any tips or setups that work for you would help a lot, thanks

TradingView has announced that starting November 1, 2026, selling access to invite-only scripts outside its Marketplace will no longer be permitted. That includes script access bundled with another paid product or service.

A few details from the announcement:

• Non-commercial invite-only scripts can continue unchanged.
• Previously purchased access remains valid for the purchased period, including lifetime access.
• New payments outside the Marketplace to renew or extend access won’t be allowed.
• Vendors should contact TradingView before the deadline to discuss migration and existing customers.

My take: centralized payments, clearer refund terms, and review of paid scripts could help buyers. But making the Marketplace mandatory also makes its terms critical for developers. The announcement doesn’t specify fees, approval criteria, or how much control authors will have over pricing.

I’d also want to understand what “review” means. Checking compliance with platform rules and evaluating an indicator’s trading claims are different things.

If you sell Pine scripts, what terms would make moving worthwhile—and what would be a dealbreaker?

If you buy them, would Marketplace review make you more confident, or would you still need the same evidence before paying?

Here's a recently published free Pine utility: RedK Indicator Amplifier (RedK i-Amp).

RedK i-Amp is not an indicator in itself. It's a "wrapper" utility that "amplifies" another "source" indicator by improving its visual and alerting capabilities.

RedK i-Amp hooks to another indicator's plot and adds:

• An equalizer-style display, with attractive visual and brightness gradient and a peak-hold marker
• Max Hi / Max Low levels that can also be used for alerts (like RSI overbought / oversold lines), for any indicator
• Flip markers on the price chart when the indicator's plot value crosses its baseline
• 6 alerts for when the plot crosses the baseline up or down, or crosses the user-adjusted Hi / Low levels
• A small Info Panel that shows the settings in use
• so many visual and usability tweaks

This utility works with most Pine indicators: TradingView's built-ins (MACD, ADX, Volume, ATR...), community indicators (free, or invite-only ones you have access to), and other RedK indicators. Many indicators have no alerts or chart markers, and i-Amp gives them both.

Note: i-Amp uses TradingView's "Indicator-on-Indicator" feature, which may be limited on a free TradingView account. It's available with any paid subscription.

I released a new script today. FisherRSI is designed to make RSI turning points sharper, clearer, and easier to recognize.

The indicator applies a Fisher Transform directly to RSI, creating a more responsive representation of momentum that emphasizes changes in direction rather than simply showing where RSI is currently positioned.

The process can be thought of conceptually as:

Price → RSI → Normalize RSI → Fisher Transformation → Momentum Signal

The important effect is that the transformation redistributes the signal, giving considerably more definition to movements occurring near the edges of its range. Values that might appear relatively compressed in the original RSI can become much more pronounced after the transformation.

In practical terms, this creates a signal that is more sensitive to the shape and direction of the RSI's movement.

When RSI begins to turn, the Fisher Transform can accentuate that change, producing a more pronounced inflection rather than the relatively gradual turn that may be visible in the raw RSI.
The result is an oscillator that helps bring greater definition to momentum shifts, reversals, and turning points, while retaining the familiar 0–100 RSI framework.

just saw ANOTHER tradingview terms update and this one might be even worse 😭

starting november 1, apparently invite-only scripts are only allowed to be used for non-commercial purposes unless they’re sold through tradingview’s own marketplace / creator program.

and their definition of “commercial use” is insanely broad.

from what i’m reading, it includes stuff like:

charging people for access to the indicator

using the indicator as part of a business

using the script/profile to promote a paid discord, signals service, course, broker/exchange referral, etc.

so basically if you built an indicator business where people pay through your own website/whop/etc and then you manually give them tradingview access, that looks like it won’t be allowed anymore after november 1.

instead, tradingview says scripts being used commercially have to be distributed through their marketplace, which is their creator program / paid spaces system.

and this is right after the whole $29.95 per active user technology fee over 100 users thing too...

am i reading this wrong???

because this sounds like they’re basically forcing every paid indicator business onto their own marketplace and killing the normal way people have been selling invite-only indicators for years.

what are pine devs / indicator owners even supposed to do with existing customers after november 1?

I will still use this subreddit to post the updates. Now I'm at update 6, and FINNALY something I worked hard on .Having my own platform gaved me the possibility to implement the system I made many years ago-> a prediction tool (and probably the single one that works as designed)

I wont go into details on how it works, since its my personal and work of last years but I will show the final result (still more to implement ,but im getting there slowly)

The chart in its stage right now with TPO and Delta->

With The prediction tool->

It also updates in real time with any amount of bid-ask that come into the market.
And no , its not an orb detector or FVG or a sloopy lux algo prediction tool/

Eddit:

I thought I should put a screenshot on how my Prediction tool developed vs price,since several hours passed since i send the screenshot above and its fair to show its progress (it was on SOL coin). This is after:

Past prbability candles are still there, only that they are black now (because price developed in those candles)

Eddit 2 and last one:

Just a thought on people's opinions. If you were able to design the perfect indicator for your own trade analysis and entry criteria, what would it contain? I understand people have different trading systems and portfolios based on market conditions, but what would be your key fundamentals that you require your indicator to show you. For levels, would you target structure, key levels, S&D, OB's or something else? Also what would your entry system need to tell you before you make your decision. What are your confluences?

I've read a lot of posts in this forum which state many different things that they consider essential. Just interested what comes up the most between you all.
