This strategy is a dual-direction trading system based on 30-minute candles, seeking trading opportunities through price volatility monitoring. The core mechanism involves identifying significant price movements using point thresholds and executing trades upon breakout confirmation. The strategy incorporates strict time management, stop-loss/take-profit mechanisms, and trade management protocols for controlled automated trading.
The strategy employs multiple filtering mechanisms to identify valid trading signals. It calculates the volatility range of each 30-minute candle at close, marking potential trading opportunities when the range exceeds preset thresholds. To ensure signal validity, the strategy implements additional buffer points, triggering actual trade signals only when prices break through this buffer zone. The system enables both long and short positions, entering longs on upward breakouts and shorts on downward breakouts, with corresponding profit targets and stop-loss levels.
This is a comprehensively designed automated trading strategy with clear logic. Through strict condition filtering and risk control, the strategy demonstrates practical applicability. However, thorough testing and optimization in live trading are necessary, particularly in parameter settings and risk control aspects which need adjustment based on actual market conditions. Successful strategy implementation requires stable market conditions and appropriate parameter configuration, with recommended extensive backtesting before live deployment.
