Overview

Entry logic is left as false placeholders, so it does not generate trades by itself. It can restrict signals to longs or shorts, swap long and short opens, and count consecutive signals to filter them with less-than, equal-to, and greater-than pyramiding thresholds. Inputs also expose optional trailing-stop, take-profit, stop-loss, and conditional close switches, all off by default. It draws on the price chart and includes no finished exit logic.

Longs only and shorts only filters
Flip long and short open signals
Consecutive long and short signal counters
Pyramiding less, equal, and greater filters
Optional trailing stop, take profit, and stop loss inputs

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.
