I just try to explain in simple terms since the < higher > lower gets confusing.
Day 1: High is 1.08248
Day 2: Price close 1.08377 (pricer higher than Day 1 high)
Day 3: Open a short position, wait for day to close, set take profit at current day low
Day 4-5-6: Take profit.
Not all numbers are accurate but it should give an idea how the strategy is working overall if done on all stock markets. It’s not accounted of spreads, commissions, low-value trades and so on.
Time to run it on a demo account and see results in real time.
I like this, it makes sense to expect a pullback after 2 consecutive up or down days. And I like the idea of using this approach for scalping or day trading, as Johnny mentioned.
The forex market just open 40 minutes ago. I will take a look before going to bed if any of the signals triggered but mostly focused on the CFD market.
There are a couple of issues of course. The drawdown on 14 out of 2000 trades (0.7%) trades are -300% or more. My goal is to get these down to a sizable 20-30% drawdown. It’s a problem with the code logic which I think of course can be a lot more improved. Spending a lot of time playing StarCraft 2 and thinking how to solve it lol
