Pivot Heiken Strategy

Strategy combining daily pivot points with Heikin-Ashi candles and an optional trailing stop. The daily pivot is calculated from the previous day's high, low and close. Heikin-Ashi smoothing filters price noise and highlights trend direction.

Logic

  • Long entry: Heikin-Ashi candle is bullish and the close is above the daily pivot.
  • Short entry: Heikin-Ashi candle is bearish and the close is below the daily pivot.
  • Exit: Position exits at stop loss, take profit, or trailing stop level.

Parameters

  • CandleType – working candle series.
  • StopLossPips – stop loss distance in pips.
  • TakeProfitPips – take profit distance in pips.
  • TrailingStopPips – trailing stop distance in pips (0 disables trailing).

Indicators

  • Heikin-Ashi (calculated internally).
  • Daily pivot point.

Notes

  • Uses high-level API with candle subscriptions and indicator binding.
  • Suitable for both long and short trading.
