Volume EA Strategy

Overview

This strategy trades based on spikes in volume and the Commodity Channel Index (CCI). It opens positions at the start of a new hour when the previous candle's volume exceeds that of the candle before it by a configurable factor. CCI values must fall within specific bands to confirm the signal.

Rules

  • Only one position is open at a time.
  • At the beginning of each hour:
    • Long entry when:
      • The previous candle is bullish.
      • Previous volume > prior volume × Factor.
      • CCI is between CciLevel1 and CciLevel2.
    • Short entry when:
      • The previous candle is bearish.
      • Previous volume > prior volume × Factor.
      • CCI is between CciLevel4 and CciLevel3.
  • A trailing stop of TrailingStop price steps protects profits.
  • All positions are closed when the hour equals 23.

Parameters

  • Factor – volume multiplier threshold.
  • TrailingStop – trailing distance in price steps.
  • CciLevel1 / CciLevel2 – CCI bounds for long trades.
  • CciLevel3 / CciLevel4 – CCI bounds for short trades.
  • CandleType – candle timeframe used for calculations.
