Overview

Bollinger Bands Strategy with TradingConnector Alerts triggers pending stop orders and outputs formatted alert messages compatible with TradingConnector for automated execution on MetaTrader platforms. Long orders are placed when price crosses above the lower band, while short orders trigger on crossovers below the upper band. Unfilled pending orders are canceled on non-triggering bars. Drawn directly on the price chart, the strategy lacks explicit stop loss and take profit exit rules.

Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints.
