Overview

Each entry uses one percent of account equity. It closes the position when price reaches 2.5 times the average entry price and draws a line from the entry bar to the exit. There is no stop loss. A label shows equity, holdings value, and the last order size. The entry test can change while the current bar is still forming because the average includes the live close.
