The Range Filter: 5 minutes vs 1 hour

The popular Range Filter Buy and Sell signals (100 / 3.0) in TradingView's own Strategy Tester, booked three ways on the same signals, plus a test of the best settings on a month they were never tuned on.

17 August to 15 October 2026, after commission:

A: always in, every flip reverses (5 min)−161.1 R 552 of 1595 won

B: stop on the band, 1.5R target (5 min)−122.7 R 405 of 1003 won

C: B + the 200 EMA side (1 hour)+22.3 R 34 of 60 won

On 5 minutes 513 of the 1,595 signals were fast flips (a new signal within 12 candles). The 200 EMA rule was picked on the first month only and made +19.8 R on the hour chart in the second; on 5 minutes it lost 45.4 R there.

Heikin Ashi: the backtest vs real prices

One Heikin Ashi strategy (50 EMA side, red pullback, green close, 1.5R target) in TradingView's own Strategy Tester: at Heikin Ashi prices, at real prices with one setting, and with the two-chart fix, on the same signals.

The same 310 signals, 5 September to 14 October 2026, booked three ways:

A: Heikin Ashi fills (the default on a Heikin Ashi chart)+236.5 R 215 of 301 won

B: real fills (Heikin Ashi mode: Standard bars)+9.4 R 146 of 301 won

C: the two-chart fix−2.1 R 67 of 169 won

Commission included, the backtest's +115.5 R becomes -111.6 R at real prices; on gold, +44 percent becomes -15 percent. 270 of the Heikin Ashi trades were over inside one candle, and 87 targets had already been passed at the real open.

QQE MOD: the "100% profitable" SuperTrend + QQE MOD + Trend Indicator A-V2 strategy

The most-copied QQE MOD strategy (SuperTrend up, a blue QQE MOD bar and a green Trend Indicator A-V2 cloud) traded six ways on Bitcoin, the Nasdaq and EUR/USD: exactly as filmed with the 2021 indicator versions, with the versions you can add today, with break-even at 1R, with a SuperTrend exit, QQE MOD alone, and QQE MOD with SSL Hybrid and the 200 EMA.

The script’s log of the last 100 trades per version on each chart:

As filmed (2021 indicators)−12 R 396 of 1200 won

Today's indicator versions+84 R 428 of 1200 won

Break-even at 1R−12 R 303 of 1200 won

SuperTrend exit+25.6 R 304 of 1200 won

QQE MOD alone−33 R 389 of 1200 won

QQE MOD + SSL Hybrid + 200 EMA−12 R 396 of 1200 won

Two of the three indicators were rewritten after the video that called it 100% profitable: with today's versions the same rules went from -12 R to +84 R and changed sides on 6 of the 12 charts. No version won more than 35.7 % of its trades.

UT Bot Alerts: four setups and the Heikin Ashi box

QuantNomad's UT Bot Alerts traded four ways (the default settings, the two-bot "best settings", the UT Bot + STC setup sold as "99% accurate" and UT Bot + Linear Regression Candles) on Bitcoin, the Nasdaq and EUR/USD, each run on real candles and with Signals from Heikin Ashi Candles switched on.

The script’s log of the last 100 trades per setup on each chart:

Default settings (1 / 10)+17.2 R 417 of 1200 won

Default + Heikin Ashi box+111.3 R 425 of 1200 won

"Best settings", two UT Bots+18 R 406 of 1200 won

"99%" UT Bot + STC−20 R 472 of 1200 won

UT Bot + LinReg Candles+9.3 R 456 of 1200 won

The Heikin Ashi box improved the default UT Bot on 9 of the 12 charts. The "99%" setup won 39.3 % of its trades; its 1.5R target needs 40 % to break even.

Squeeze Momentum: three rules and the typo

LazyBear's Squeeze Momentum Indicator traded three ways (the creator's rule, the classic bright-bar rule and an improved rule with a long squeeze and the 200 SMA) on Bitcoin, gold and EUR/USD, each run on the code TradingView shows and on the code with LazyBear's 2014 typo fixed.

The script’s log of the last 100 trades per rule on each chart, the code TradingView shows:

Rule A, the creator's+10.7 R 451 of 1200 won

Rule B, the classic−27 R 391 of 1200 won

Rule C, improved+3 R 401 of 1200 won

Rule C, 1-hour chart+51 R 117 of 300 won

Rule C on the 1-hour chart was positive on all three markets. Fixing the typo turned a profit into a loss, or a loss into a profit, in 20 of the 36 tests.

Heikin Ashi, key levels and the exit trick

Key levels on the real price, Heikin Ashi to confirm the turn, three exits on the same 300 trades, and the same trades booked at Heikin Ashi prices to show how far that backtest drifts.

Exit A: fixed 2R−30.1 R 90 of 300 won

Exit B: half at 2R + ride−6.6 R 90 of 300 won

Exit C: ride with Heikin Ashi−4.8 R 76 of 300 won

Exit A at Heikin Ashi prices+3 R 101 of 300 won

The Supertrend and three ways to filter it

+ Kumo cloud+30.8 R 137 of 598 won

How these numbers are measured

Each log counts the last 100 signals the script found on one market and timeframe, on closed candles only. A trade that touched its stop and its target on the same candle is counted as a loss. Spread, commission and slippage are not included, so a real account would do somewhat worse.

These are historical results of one set of settings on one timeframe. They describe what price already did and are not a prediction. Test a strategy on your own market before you rely on it.
