Price change scalping short and long strategy

7 Sep 2022

Price change scalping Short and Long strategy uses a rate of change momentum oscillator to calculate the percent change in price between a period of time. Rate of change calculation takes the current price and compares it to a price of "n" periods while the period of time can be defined by a user. The calculated rate of change value is then compared to the upper threshold and the lower threshold values to determine if a position should be opened. If the threshold is crossed and filtering conditions are met a strategy position will be triggered. Entry, take profit, and stop loss prices are calculated and displayed on the chart as well as positions directions. Once the entry price is crossed, a long or short position is created and once the take profit price is crossed, the stop loss price will begin to trail behind the price action using the close of the previous bar. Once the trailing stop price is crossed, the position is closed. If the entry price is not crossed and the price action crosses the stop level, the trade setup is cancelled. The strategy is enhanced by DCA algorithm which allows to average entry price with safety orders. The script also allows to use Martingale coefficient to increase averaging power
