Outside Bar Strategy %
This strategy is based on identifying Outside Bars, which occur when the current bar's high is higher than the previous bar's high and its low is lower than the previous bar's low. The strategy enters trades in the direction of the Outside Bar, offering a powerful way to capture price moves following a strong price expansion.
Key Features:
Long and Short Entries: The strategy enters a Long trade when the Outside Bar closes bullish (current close > open), and a Short trade when the Outside Bar closes bearish (current close < open).
Customizable Entry Levels: The entry point is calculated based on a customizable percentage of the Outside Bar's range, allowing flexibility for traders to fine-tune their entries at 50% or 70% of the bar's range.
Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP):
Stop Loss (SL) is automatically placed at the Outside Bar's low for Long trades and at its high for Short trades.
Take Profit (TP) is calculated as a percentage of the Outside Bar's range, with customizable settings for take-profit levels.
Visual Indicators:
Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit levels are plotted as lines on the chart, with customizable colors and widths for easy identification.
Labels are placed on the chart to indicate whether the trade is Long or Short, positioned above or below the Outside Bar's candlestick.
Alerts: Users can enable alerts to receive notifications when a trade is triggered, including details such as entry points and stop loss levels.
Strategy Parameters:
Entry Percentage: Set the entry level as a percentage of the Outside Bar's range (e.g., 50%, 70%).
Take Profit Percentage: Customize the Take Profit level as a percentage of the Outside Bar's range.
Customizable Colors and Line Widths: Adjust the colors and thickness of the entry, stop loss, and take profit lines to fit your preferences.
Alerts: Enable alerts to be notified when a trade is executed or when the entry level is reached.
This strategy is ideal for traders who want to capitalize on significant price moves after a breakout, with clear risk management through Stop Loss and Take Profit levels. The customizable features make it suitable for various market conditions and trading styles.
