Strategy Overview for "Fibonacci Swing Trading Bot"

Strategy Name: Fibonacci Swing Trading Bot
Version: Pine Script v5
Purpose: This strategy is designed for swing traders who want to leverage Fibonacci retracement levels and candlestick patterns to enter and exit trades on higher time frames.

Key Components:
1. Multiple Timeframe Analysis:

• The strategy uses a customizable timeframe for analysis. You can choose between 4hour, daily, weekly, or monthly time frames to fit your preferred trading horizon. The high and low-price data is retrieved from the selected timeframe to identify swing points.
  

2. Fibonacci Retracement Levels:

• The script calculates two key Fibonacci retracement levels:
  
• 0.618: A common level where price often retraces before resuming its trend.
  
• 0.786: A deeper retracement level, often used to identify stronger support/resistance areas.
  
• These levels are dynamically plotted on the chart based on the highest high and lowest low over the last 50 bars of the selected timeframe.
  

3. Candlestick Based Entry Signals:

• The strategy uses candlestick patterns as the only indicator for trade entries:
  
• Bullish Candle: A green candle (close > open) that forms between the 0.618 retracement level and the swing high.
  
• Bearish Candle: A red candle (close < open) that forms between the 0.786 retracement level and the swing low.
  
• When these candlestick patterns align with the Fibonacci levels, the script triggers buy or sell signals.
  

4. Risk Management:

• Stop Loss: The stop loss is set at 1% below the entry price for long trades and 1% above the entry price for short trades. This tight risk management ensures controlled losses.
  
• Take Profit: The strategy uses a 2:1 risk-to-reward ratio. The take profit is automatically calculated based on this ratio relative to the stop loss.
  

5. Buy/Sell Logic:

• Buy Signal: Triggered when a bullish candle forms above the 0.618 retracement level and below the swing high. The bot then places a long position.
  
• Sell Signal: Triggered when a bearish candle forms below the 0.786 retracement level and above the swing low. The bot then places a short position.
  
• The stop loss and take profit levels are automatically managed once the trade is placed.
  

Strengths of This Strategy:

• Swing Trading Focus: The strategy is ideal for swing traders, targeting longer-term price moves that can take days or weeks to play out.
  
• Simple Yet Effective Indicators: By only relying on Fibonacci retracement levels and basic candlestick patterns, the strategy avoids complexity while capitalizing on well-known support and resistance zones.
  
• Automated Risk Management: The built-in stop loss and take profit mechanism ensures trades are protected, adhering to a strict 2:1 risk/reward ratio.
  
• Multiple Timeframe Analysis: The script adapts to various market conditions by allowing users to switch between different timeframes (4hour, daily, weekly, monthly), giving traders flexibility.
  

Strategy Use Cases:

• Retracement Traders: Traders who focus on entering the market at key retracement levels (0.618 and 0.786) will find this strategy especially useful.
  
• Trend Reversal Traders: The strategy’s reliance on candlestick formations at Fibonacci levels helps traders spot potential reversals in price trends.
  
• Risk Conscious Traders: With its 1% risk per trade and 2:1 risk/reward ratio, the strategy is ideal for traders who prioritize risk management in their trades.
