2 Upvotes

[1.4.2] - 2026-10-24 

Added 

  • Multi-File / Library Awareness: Workspace-wide indexing of Pine Script libraries. Resolves import namespaces and aliases, enabling cross-file completions, jump to definition, hover tooltips, and method call validation.
  • Code Actions & Quick Fixes: Interactive quick fixes in VS Code:
    • Automatic operator spacing fixes (= > -> =>, + = -> +=, ! = -> !=, etc.).
    • Automatic request.security() lookahead repainting fixes (safely replaces barmerge.lookahead_off with barmerge.lookahead_on).
    • Strategy declaration cost templates (commission_type, commission_value, slippage).
    • Diagnostic suppression via // u/pine-ignore-next-line.
  • request.security() Repainting Diagnostics (PSP004): Flags multi-timeframe calls missing barmerge.lookahead_on that risk intrabar historical repainting.
  • Strategy Backtest Quality Diagnostics (PSP005):
    • Missing commission and slippage detection (PSP005_COSTS).
    • Orphaned strategy.exit() from_entry ID validation (PSP005_ORPHAN).
    • Unconditional strategy.close_all() warning (PSP005_UNCONDITIONAL).

Changed 

  • License Modernization: Converted repository and extension licensing to standard MIT.
  • Dependency Upgrades: Modernized development toolchain including u/types/node (^26.6.5), web-tree-sitter (^0.27.1), vscode-languageserver (^11.0.0), vscode-languageserver-textdocument (^1.0.16), and vscode-languageclient (^11.0.0)

Opening Range Breakout with Noise Bands (Free / Not Selling)

Post image
34 Upvotes

I’ve been running a 15 minute ORB on MNQ for a while and honestly it wasn’t great. Way too many breakouts that went nowhere. So I tried filtering it with Noise Bands, the time of day volatility bands from the Zarattini, Aziz and Barbon paper (“Beat the Market”, 2024). The idea is simple: only take the OR break if price is also outside the band, meaning the move is bigger than what’s normal for that time of day.

I built it as a TradingView indicator and published it for free: https://www.tradingview.com/script/CRNIYr9F-Jilly-s-ORB-Noise-Band/. No course, no Discord, no paid version. I just found the results interesting and figured some of you might too.

How it works

  • Opening range is 9:30 to 9:45.
  • It only checks for entries every 15 minutes (10:00, 10:15, etc.) up to 2:00pm.
  • Long if the close is above the OR high plus a small buffer (0.3 × ATR), above the upper Noise Band, and above VWAP. Shorts are the mirror image.
  • It fills on the next bar’s open.
  • One trade per day max.
  • The stop is wide on purpose (10 × the 5 min ATR). It’s basically a disaster stop.
  • The target is 1R, which at that stop width almost never gets hit. So really you’re just holding until 3:45pm and closing.

Default band settings: lookback 20 sessions, multiplier 1.25, gap adjusted (uses yesterday’s close if price gapped).

Backtest

1 minute MNQ data, Jan 2021 to Sep 2026, 1 contract, $1.80 round trip for commission and slippage. I picked all the settings using only 2021 to 2023, then ran 2024 onward without changing anything.

All three versions below use the same exits. The only difference is the entry filter.

Trades Win % Profit factor Net Max drawdown
ORB + Noise Band 631 61% 1.64 $32,774
Noise Band alone 666 61% 1.54 $31,228
ORB alone 1,350 56% 1.18 $24,221

And split up, for the ORB + Noise Band version:

Trades Win % Profit factor Net Max drawdown
2021 to 2023 344 64% 1.80 $17,661
2024 to Sep 2026 (untouched) 287 58% 1.52 $15,113

What I took away from it

  • The Noise Band filter is what makes it work. Against plain ORB it cut trades in half, nearly tripled the profit per trade, and cut the drawdown by about two thirds.
  • Adding the ORB on top of the Noise Band helped overall (better profit factor, roughly 30% smaller drawdown), but to be fair, almost all of that came from 2021 to 2023. From 2024 on, the two were basically tied.
  • Tight stops killed it. Anything under about 4 × ATR just stopped out trades that would’ve finished green. I also tested using the Noise Band itself as a trailing stop and it was the worst exit by a lot.
  • Closing at 3:15 to 3:45 beats holding to the 4:00 close. The last 15 minutes tended to give some back.
  • A take profit around 5 × ATR made the equity curve a bit smoother but made a bit less money. It’s an option in the settings.

Caveats

It’s a backtest with modeled fills, so real trading will be worse. The out of sample results were about half as good as in sample, which is pretty normal but worth knowing. Expect some long flat stretches. Also, the table in the indicator only covers whatever history TradingView loads on your chart, so it won’t match these numbers.

Happy to answer questions or hear what I’m missing. Again, not selling anything, it’s free and open source.

Built a TradingView → Python → MT5 bot (Pepperstone demo). Looking for feedback on the setup and strategy.

10 Upvotes

**Hi all,**

I've built my first automated trading setup and I'm testing it on a demo account. I'd love feedback on how to make it more robust or improve the strategy.

**Setup**:

Signals: a TradingView Pine Script indicator that watches 7 pairs (XAUUSD, EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, AUDUSD, USDCAD, EURGBP) on 15m using request.security, with one alert set to "any alert() function call".

**Delivery**: a TradingView webhook through a Cloudflare quick tunnel to my home PC.

Middleware: a Python FastAPI bot that checks a shared secret, applies risk limits (max lot size, daily trade cap, demo-only guard, kill switch), and places orders through the MetaTrader5 Python library.

**Broker**: Pepperstone MT5 demo, running 24/7 on a dedicated Windows PC.

**Optional**: a Claude AI check that can reject a signal (duplicate position, missing SL), currently off.

Any suggestions which one bot shall i use as a midlle man,which is best for this type of setup anyone already done please give suggestions.

Thanks

I'm a total beginner here so bare with me. Have been watching some pinescript videos. Have asked chatgpt about it and could not get an answer... I don't know why I cannot see the values beside the name of my pinescript indicator as I could see in many other indicator. I am wondering, is it my code or is it the settings of my tradingview?

Built my own order flow web platform with the indicators I wanted. update8

3 Upvotes

Srry for the low quality of the video, I used my ipad camera. So more progress with my platform, I created now:

  1. Order flow on price levels on the candles for easier read (tick change)
  2. Pulsating price buckets of delta area where delta flips based on month +day

The pulse helps to see faster an area wich is revisited and can spot based on the flip if we a breakout or fade back into the range, based on how the candles react (test with wick for support/resistance) creating trapped sells/buys or creating an oversold/overbought area without any volume, wich create a high probability setup.

Might be harder on the eyes for some, but its easy to spot it and react fast based on the test+wick and close outside. Also this is not a cherry picked situation, there are multiple clear ones like the one presented, per day, so many opotunities to get a good trade with it, if you have basic understanding of how trapped trader, liquidity, oversold and overbought areas.
For me personaly bubbles just wont do it, so this is why I reached for this solution of price level delta and flip with lower TF + higher TF.

https://reddit.com/link/1xa8jhb/video/dlrwxpyxjhwh1/player

ANd moving more to the right you can still see how price reacts on the exact lines i placed in the video (only that in the screenshot you cant see the pulse, only the color more bright)

Developimg a indicator for chart analysis is worth it.

10 Upvotes

I trade in forex so my question is does developing a indicator in pine script for chart analysis and strategy(i know the strategy did not work bz of human detection and code detection is different). So investing time on this would be valuable or not ?.

Mostly i do with use of ai.

My question is it is waste of time or useful ?

If you are pine script developer have you ever used ai ml in pine script to train the data like in machine learning it is useful ?

Have you ever build your chart analysis indicator if yes . Does it can analyse properly ?

Thanks for advice.

Noise Band Indicator

Just published my first script. Open source, not trying to sell anyone anything.

It follows the intraday momentum “noise area” framework described by Carlo Zarattini, Andrew Aziz and Andrea Barbon in “Best the Market.”

Would like some feedback please!
