This strategy replicates the MetaTrader expert advisor Exp_DynamicRS_C using the StockSharp high-level API. It evaluates the color transitions of the custom DynamicRS_C indicator to detect dynamic support and resistance. When the line turns magenta (color index 0) it favours bullish setups, and when it turns blue-violet (color index 2) it favours bearish setups. The StockSharp port keeps the same signal timing, permission flags, and stop/take structure as the source robot.
Details
Entry Criteria:
Long: The finished candle selected by SignalBar changes the indicator color from anything except 0 to 0. The strategy optionally closes an existing short before entering, replicating the original SellPosClose gate, and then opens a long if AllowBuyEntry is enabled.
Short: The evaluated candle changes the indicator color from anything except 2 to 2. The strategy optionally closes an existing long (AllowBuyExit) and then opens a short if AllowSellEntry is enabled.
Long/Short: Trades both directions with independent toggles for entries and exits.
Exit Criteria:
Long positions close when a short signal appears and AllowBuyExit is true, or when stop-loss / take-profit limits are hit.
Short positions close when a long signal appears and AllowSellExit is true, or when the risk limits trigger.
Stops: StopLossPoints and TakeProfitPoints are absolute price offsets from the entry price. Set either value to zero to disable that protection.
Filters:
SignalBar determines how many completed candles back are inspected for a color change, mimicking the original buffer lookup (CopyBuffer(..., SignalBar, 2)).
CandleType selects the timeframe used for both the indicator and trading logic (default: 4-hour candles, matching the EA).
Parameters
CandleType – Candle series processed by the strategy.
Length – Lookback depth used by the DynamicRS_C indicator to compare highs/lows (Length in MQL).
SignalBar – Number of fully closed candles back used for signal evaluation (equivalent to the EA input SignalBar).
AllowBuyEntry / AllowSellEntry – Permit opening long/short positions on their respective signals.
AllowBuyExit / AllowSellExit – Permit closing existing long/short positions when the opposite signal appears.
StopLossPoints – Absolute loss distance from the entry price. When positive it closes longs below and shorts above the entry.
TakeProfitPoints – Absolute profit distance from the entry price. When positive it closes longs above and shorts below the entry.
Volume – Base order size inherited from Strategy.Volume. Additional quantity is automatically added to flatten opposite positions when the signal requests a reversal.
Indicator Logic
The bundled DynamicRsCIndicator reproduces the colour-buffer behaviour of the MetaTrader script:
It tracks the latest highs and lows over the configured Length window and the immediately preceding bar.
When a local high is lower than both the previous high and the high Length bars ago, and also lies below the previous indicator value, the buffer switches to color 0 (magenta) and the value snaps to that high.
When a local low is higher than both the previous low and the low Length bars ago, and above the previous indicator value, the buffer switches to color 2 (blue-violet) and the value snaps to that low.
Otherwise the indicator keeps its previous value. Neutral color 1 acts as a bridge between trend states exactly as in the original algorithm.
By binding this indicator through BindEx, the strategy receives both the numeric value and the discrete color index, ensuring that signal evaluation and trade timing match the behaviour of the source expert.
