SAR Trailing System Strategy

Strategy that enters random long or short positions at fixed time intervals and manages exits using the Parabolic SAR indicator. The Parabolic SAR value acts as a trailing stop: the position closes when price crosses the SAR level.

Details

  • Entry Criteria:
    • Every TimerInterval, if there is no open position and UseRandomEntry is enabled, a random long or short trade is opened.
  • Long/Short: Both
  • Exit Criteria: Price crossing the Parabolic SAR.
  • Stops: Initial stop-loss in ticks with Parabolic SAR trailing exit.
  • Default Values:
    • TimerInterval = 300 seconds
    • StopLossTicks = 10
    • AccelerationStep = 0.02
    • AccelerationMax = 0.2
    • UseRandomEntry = true
    • CandleType = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1).TimeFrame()
  • Filters:
    • Category: Trend-following
    • Direction: Both
    • Indicators: Parabolic SAR
    • Stops: Yes
    • Complexity: Beginner
    • Timeframe: Short-term
    • Seasonality: No
    • Neural Networks: No
    • Divergence: No
    • Risk Level: Medium
