Exp Blau CSI Strategy

This strategy is a C# conversion of the MetaTrader 5 expert adviser Exp_BlauCSI. It trades on the Blau Candle Stochastic Index (CSI) calculated on a selected candle series. The strategy can react either to zero-line breakdowns or to direction changes in the indicator and supports configurable stop-loss and take-profit levels measured in price steps.

Trading logic

The Blau CSI compares a momentum component with the high-low range of recent candles. Both parts are smoothed three times using a selected moving average type.

  • Breakdown mode – opens a long position when the indicator crosses below zero and closes any shorts while the previous value was positive. Opens a short position on a cross above zero and closes any longs while the previous value was negative.
  • Twist mode – opens a long position when the indicator turns upward (value rises compared to the previous bar after declining). Opens a short position when the indicator turns downward. The previous bar direction is always used to close existing positions for the opposite side.

Signals are evaluated on a configurable historical bar (Signal Bar) to ensure confirmation on fully closed candles.

Parameters

Parameter Description
Entry Mode Selects Breakdown or Twist logic.
Smoothing Method Moving average type used inside the Blau CSI (Simple, Exponential, Smoothed, LinearWeighted, or Jurik).
Momentum Length Number of bars used to compute the momentum and range components.
First/Second/Third Smoothing Depth of the three smoothing stages applied to momentum and range.
Smoothing Phase Phase parameter for Jurik smoothing (ignored by other methods).
Momentum Price / Reference Price Applied price constants for the leading and lagging momentum values (close, open, high, low, median, typical, weighted, simple, quarter, trend-following, or Demark).
Signal Bar Offset (in bars) used when evaluating the Blau CSI buffer. Default 1 means the previous closed bar.
Stop Loss (pts) Stop-loss distance in price steps (0 disables).
Take Profit (pts) Take-profit distance in price steps (0 disables).
Allow Long/Short Entries Enable or disable opening positions for each direction.
Allow Long/Short Exits Enable or disable exit signals for existing positions.
Candle Type Data type for the subscription (defaults to 4-hour time frame).
Start Date / End Date Date filters for trading activity.
Order Volume Market order volume.

Risk management

When a new position is opened the strategy calculates stop-loss and take-profit levels using the instrument PriceStep. If the instrument does not provide a step, stops are disabled automatically. Trailing is not performed; each position keeps the initial protective levels until it is closed by a signal or by reaching a target.

Usage notes

  1. Attach the strategy to a security that provides candle data for the selected Candle Type.
  2. Choose the indicator mode and smoothing parameters according to your trading plan.
  3. Ensure the instrument has a valid PriceStep when using stop-loss or take-profit distances.
  4. Optionally restrict trading to a time range using Start Date and End Date.

Differences compared to the original MT5 version

  • The implementation uses StockSharp indicators and C# strategy APIs instead of MetaTrader trading functions.
  • Lot size management is simplified: order volume is taken directly from the Order Volume parameter.
  • Only the smoothing methods provided by StockSharp are supported (Simple, Exponential, Smoothed, LinearWeighted, Jurik). Unsupported MT5 modes fall back to Exponential smoothing.
  • Trade direction toggles and stop management remain compatible with the original behavior.

The strategy is ready for backtesting within StockSharp Designer, Shell, Runner, or any custom StockSharp host application.
