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

Take profit and stop loss are set from the signal candle's range using separate multipliers, and trailing stops can replace a fixed stop. Users can allow longs, shorts, or both, close a trade when the opposite pinbar appears, and limit backtests to dates after a chosen start. Position size defaults to the full equity. Signals use the current candle, so they can change before that bar closes.

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