hello,
can u please make a strategy that u can choose a timeframe that a candle closes above or below the pivot and then trade that way, it should have also a stop loss of about 20 pips or so and targets as R1 and R2 or S1 and S2 the position should open atleast 2 positions at the same time with targets R1 and R2 and stop loss of 20 pips
can u please do that?
is it possible to choose also the timeframe of the pivot ? weekly etc...
thanks alot
ben
most important is cross of the pivot on a aclosed candle normally 20 min or 15 and stops and limits wich are the targets

Dear developer,
it is not clear to me what this strategy does. It opens only two trades in 8 month backtesting. I cant see that the strategy is opening trades after touching the Pivot, R1 or S1. How many lots? Exit etc
make a strategy which allows to choose the pivotlevel and the direction of the trade (opposite), amount, exit etc. I believe a lot of people would like that.

The strategy does not specify how many lots are possible to trade for each trade. Also, what are the parameters? R1 and S1? Or R2 and S2?
Grazie

Is this still being worked on?

I have tried the original strategy, however like Ben i'd moved to see a few more variables added.

The ability to test it with configurable Stop's - Limits (in PIPS) would be a great addition.

Also, if the time-frame of the Pivot (not just candle) was configurable that would make much more sense.

For example, i'd like to test the following
Take a trade when Monthly Pivot is hit, with a 20 pip stop an a 40 pip target.

But also, test the following
Take a trade when Daily Pivot is hit, with a 40pip stop and a 100pip target.
Is it possible to make these configurable?

Cheers. Steve

Excuse me, this strategy was not " stop" and " limit ", nor the number, how to control the position number?
