Grid strategy placing layered limit orders above and below current price with increasing volume.
Positions are protected by an initial stop and trailed as price moves favorably.
Details
Entry Criteria:
Long: Place buy limit orders every SpaceBetweenTrades steps below bid.
Short: Place sell limit orders every SpaceBetweenTrades steps above ask.
Long/Short: Optional for each side via TradeLong and TradeShort.
Exit Criteria: Trailing stop or opposite grid side execution.
Stops: Initial StopLossPips and trailing via TrailingStopPips.
Default Values:
StartingVolume = 0.1m
IncreasePercentage = 1m
SpaceBetweenTrades = 700m
NumberOfTrades = 50
StopLossPips = 300m
TrailingStopPips = 100m
TradeLong = true
TradeShort = true
CandleType = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1).TimeFrame()
