Heres a simple oco (one cancels other) strategy used for breakout trading.

the rules are:

when price breaks either high or low of candle an oco position is taken in that direction.
stoploss will be candle low (long trade) or candle high (short trade). either a set amount of take profit is taken, or trade closes at designated time of day.

Ive attached screenshot descriptions for clarity. cheers ;)

in hindsight I should have suggested making some adaptions to the existing breakout strategy which which works in conjunction with the breakout indicator.

if:

1. the stop and limit options were removed
2. close on opposite is added
3. trading end time was added

once per day can be selected as no by the user.


it would basically be the same strategy which ive requested..
