Brake Exp Strategy

This strategy trades based on the BrakeExp indicator. The indicator draws an adaptive support and resistance channel built from an exponential curve. A switch of the channel from lower to upper line generates a sell signal, and a switch from upper to lower line generates a buy signal.

How it works

  • When the indicator reports an up signal, the strategy closes short positions and opens a new long position.
  • When a down signal appears, existing long positions are closed and a short position is opened.
  • If only an up trend is detected the strategy exits short positions.
  • If only a down trend is detected the strategy exits long positions.

Signals are processed on finished candles only.

Parameters

  • A – curve acceleration factor of the BrakeExp indicator.
  • B – price step used for the channel width.
  • CandleType – candle series for indicator calculation.
  • Volume – order volume used when entering the market.

Notes

The strategy uses the high level StockSharp API and can be run in Designer, Shell or any other StockSharp product.
