Source Code
The code stays on GitHub. The author has not published this script under an open licence, so ForexR does not show its code. Copy script reads the file straight from GitHub into your clipboard, so you can still try it on your own chart. Ask the author before reusing the code anywhere else.
Overview
Fractal Sweep Strategy detects a sweep of a prior candle's extreme, a return and a CISD confirmation, then enters with a stop at the sweep extreme or CISD level and a take profit at a set R:R multiple. Shallow sweep and closed-back filters are on by default, with optional SMT divergence against ES, a session window in Eastern time and a date range. Size can be risk-based from a dollar amount and point value or a fixed contract count. Defaults assume micro Nasdaq futures costs.
- Sweep and CISD entries with fixed stop and target
- Risk-based or fixed contract sizing
- Shallow sweep and closed-back quality filters
- Optional SMT filter, session and date range
- Entry markers and SL/TP lines

Third-party code. ForexR did not write, test or endorse this script, and the summary above was generated automatically from its code and README. Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints. Check it in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account before you rely on it.
