The SuperTrend - TSLA - 1m indicator is a trend-following strategy optimized for Tesla (TSLA) on the 1-minute timeframe, designed to capture short-term momentum shifts using the classic SuperTrend calculation.

Usage

The indicator can be used to identify trend reversals and potential entry points on highly liquid, low-timeframe assets like TSLA. A bullish signal is generated when the price crosses above the SuperTrend line, while a bearish signal is generated when the price crosses below it.

The strategy utilizes stop orders to enter positions exactly at the SuperTrend levels. Because this specific configuration generates a high volume of trades, it serves as a robust baseline that can be further refined by adding secondary trend filters or volume-based oscillators to improve the win rate.

Details

The script calculates the SuperTrend line based on the Average True Range (ATR) and the median price (HL2).

  • Upward Trend: When the price is above the lower band, the band is calculated as HL2 - (Multiplier * ATR).
  • Downward Trend: When the price is below the upper band, the band is calculated as HL2 + (Multiplier * ATR).

The logic includes specific handling for price gaps and ensures the trend line only moves in the direction of the trend until a crossover occurs. The script is optimized with alerts for both bullish and bearish crossovers to assist manual or automated execution.

Settings

  • SuperTrend Multiplier: This value determines how far the bands are from the median price. Increasing this value makes the indicator less sensitive to volatility.
  • SuperTrend Period: The lookback period used to calculate the Average True Range (ATR), which defines the sensitivity of the trend detection.
