Overview

Its setup uses percent-of-equity sizing, a commission and slippage assumption, no pyramiding and orders processed on bar close. Inputs cover fast and slow lengths, a risk percent per trade, ATR length, ATR stop and take-profit multipliers and an optional trading session filter. The description and logic are placeholders that a user replaces with their own rules.

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.
