Overview
ChannelBreakOutStrategy executes stop orders to enter long positions above the upper channel boundary and short positions below the lower channel boundary. Positions reverse when an opposing breakout triggers. The primary input setting controls the channel length lookback. The strategy operates directly on the price chart. It includes no stop-loss or take-profit rules, maintaining open positions until opposite channel breakouts occur.
- Channel breakout entry stop orders
- Highest high upper boundary tracking
- Lowest low lower boundary tracking
- Configurable lookback length input
