Backtest History Setup 1.0Script of strategy component to setup the backtext lookback. You setup the maximum days back in the history, which will be used for backtest.
Timeframe
BarUpDn time limitedtrying to understand strategies, it appears that there is a lot of black magic in how a strat works behind the scenes.
anyway, it's hard to analyse what's all the data with one gazillion entries, and i wanted to know how we can manipulate/do stuff with a chart.
so, i needed to know how to "give" the script my values to work on. bundled two wants/needs into one, and created a script that only applies a strategy from the date given onwards.
how to use:
at the chart, go to the "format" little button, then the input tab, and there is all the date fields i created. fun to set it to the current date, then start going backwards and see all the little arrows filing up the chart :)
[RichG] Easy MTF Strategy v1.1This is a second attempt at an easy to understand multiple time frame strategy. This one uses ATR for exits. If the position is long, and the price closes below the ATR multiplier, it triggers a close. If the position is short, and the price closes above the ATR/multiplier, it triggers a close. This generates a lot of little trades but is useful because it uses multiple time frames along with cutting losses when the ATR disagrees.
[RichG] Easy MTF StrategyAs we all know, timeframe agreement is a powerful tool. This strategy uses 4 time frames and the Keltner ATR for entries and exits.
