This section provides actionable case studies with tested parameter sets that clients can replicate in TradingView. Each example balances cash flow generation and Crypto accumulation based on specific objectives.
Note: When you find a recipe you want to use, but would like to change the amount of money you are buying and selling without changing it's performance, you will need to take note of the ratio between Entry Trade Size and Exit Trade Size.
Using Recipe No. 1 as an example, the ratio between the Entry and Exit size is 2.23:1. This means the Entry Trade is 2.23x larger than the Exit Trade. If you wanted the Entry trade to be $1,000, you can calculate the Exit: $1,000/2.23 = $448
We have included an Entry/Exit Ratio under each recipe's Paramters section to make this easy.
