Overview

By default it enters long with 100 percent of equity when the bar time is inside that window; a boolean input switches the same entry to short. Orders are processed on the bar close. It closes any open position outside the window and does not set a stop loss, take profit, or other exit rules. It does not calculate extra plotted statistics beyond the strategy position itself.
