PYRAMIDING BTCUSDTPERP1H [ALERTS VERSION]
Dec 6, 2021

The PYRAMIDING BTCUSDTPERP1H [ALERTS VERSION] tool is a comprehensive trend-following indicator designed to identify high-probability entry points through the confluence of six different technical analysis methods. It specifically targets the 1-hour timeframe for BTCUSDTPERP, utilizing a pyramiding approach to confirm trend strength before signaling entries.
Usage
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on a multi-layered filtering system. Users should look for the triangle shapes on the chart which indicate a new signal. The script is optimized for 1x leverage due to its specific risk management profile, which utilizes a wide stop loss to allow for trend development and avoids premature exits during volatile "wicks."
Key usage components include:
- Trend Identification: The background bar coloring (via ADX) and the Range Filter cloud help determine the current market regime.
- Entry Confirmation: Signals only trigger when volume exceeds a specific relative threshold (RVOL), ensuring there is sufficient market participation.
- Exit Logic: The script includes built-in visual markers for Take Profit (1.4%) and Stop Loss (9.0%) levels, though it is designed to ideally "flip" positions as the trend changes.
Details
This tool integrates six distinct indicators to minimize false signals:
- ADX (Classic or Masanakamura): Filters out sideways price action by requiring a minimum trend strength threshold.
- RSI: Acts as a safety filter to prevent buying into overbought conditions or selling into oversold conditions.
- Relative Volume (RVOL): Prevents entries during "flat" or low-liquidity market periods.
- Range Filter: Provides a smoothed tracking of the price range to define the primary direction.
- Triple Moving Averages (5, 10, 30): Uses fast and medium-term SMA alignments to ensure momentum is in favor of the trade.
- MACD ReLoaded: A custom implementation of the MACD that helps confirm cyclical momentum shifts.

FAQ
How do I use this on other timeframes? This specific configuration is optimized for the 1-hour (60min) timeframe on BTCUSDTPERP; usage on other symbols or timeframes may require significant settings adjustments.
What leverage is recommended? The script is designed for 1x leverage. Because it uses a wide 9% stop loss to avoid "scam wicks," higher leverage can result in significant capital drawdown.
