MA Crossover Alerts for Small Quick Profits on 3commas/DCA bot

The MA Crossover Alerts for Small Quick Profits on 3commas/DCA bot indicator provides a versatile crossover signal system designed to automate entry signals for DCA trading bots.

Usage

The indicator identifies potential entry points when a fast moving average crosses above a slow moving average, provided the slow moving average is also trending upward. This dual-condition logic helps filter out "death crosses" or sideways chop.

To use this for automated trading, such as with a 3commas DCA bot:

1. Select your preferred moving average type and periods.
2. Configure the bot with small Take Profit (e.g., 0.3%) and safety orders to capture quick price movements.
3. Create a TradingView alert using the "Buy" condition and paste your bot's "Message for deal start signal" into the alert message box.

Details

The script utilizes a specific filtering mechanism to prevent over-trading. A "low-pass" check ensures that a new buy signal cannot be triggered if another signal occurred within the last 6 bars. This is particularly useful for DCA bots to prevent multiple simultaneous entries on the same price fluctuation. The script supports seven different types of moving averages, allowing users to tailor the lag and sensitivity of the crossover to specific market conditions.

Settings
