Overview

The lead tool monitors price action relative to previous candle highs and lows to identify breakout opportunities. It incorporates stochastic filters to confirm entries and supports specific trading windows, such as the London session. Risk management is handled through hard stop losses, take profit targets, and a trailing stop mechanism. The inclusion of a lot exponent parameter indicates the use of martingale-style lot scaling for position sizing.
