S4 IBS Mean Rev 3candleExit Strategy

The strategy buys when the previous candle's Internal Bar Strength (IBS) is below a threshold, expecting mean reversion. It exits when price closes above the entry or after three candles if the trade remains losing.

Details

  • Entry Criteria: previous IBS <= threshold
  • Long/Short: Long only
  • Exit Criteria: close above entry price or after 3 candles if still below entry; force exit after end time
  • Stops: No
  • Default Values:
    • IbsThreshold = 0.25
    • StartTime = 2024-01-01 05:00:00 UTC
    • EndTime = 2024-12-31 00:00:00 UTC
  • Filters:
    • Category: Mean Reversion
    • Direction: Long
    • Indicators: None
    • Stops: No
    • Complexity: Basic
    • Timeframe: Daily
    • Seasonality: Yes
    • Neural networks: No
