Evaluation Guide

Separate context, trigger, and exit

A usable intraday setup specifies more than a cluster of arrows. Write down what permits a trade, what triggers it, and what ends it. For example, a hypothetical study might require an upward trend measure, a price crossing a previously recorded level, and an exit after a fixed number of bars. These are research rules, not recommended trades. Define them before examining the results.

Make the session part of the rule

Record whether the chart includes extended hours, its time zone, and when session-based calculations reset. Opening activity and overnight bars should not silently enter different versions of the same test. If a five-minute trigger depends on an hourly value, specify whether that hour has closed. A later-confirmed hourly reading must not be treated as known at the earlier trigger.

Use the library as components, not a finished strategy

Pineify lists six Premium Scripts: Signals & Overlays, Oscillator Matrix, EzAlgo, Hyper-Spectral Neural Flow, Support-Resistance Levels, and TC 1D Trades. Source and tutorials are available through eligible paid membership. The catalog describes TC 1D Trades as a daily tool; that does not make it an intraday entry engine. Inspect the actual script before combining its output with a faster chart.

A small gross edge can disappear after execution

Consider a hypothetical 20-trade study with total gross gains of $160 and round-trip costs of $9 per trade. The $180 cost leaves a $20 net loss. This is arithmetic, not a Pineify result. Record spread and slippage assumptions as well as commission, and keep the original settings for a later test period. Faster alerts cannot prove that the assumed fill was available.
