ENTRY LOGIC (ICHIMOKU CONTEXT + TEMA BREAKOUT + VOLATILITY BUFFER)
This EA confirms directional context first and executes only if price extends into a volatility-adjusted breakout zone.
It combines an **Ichimoku Kumo breakout filter** with a **TEMA-based pending STOP trigger**, where the final entry price is shifted by a buffer derived from Bollinger Band Width Ratio.
Setup conditions (direction filter):
- Long setup:
- Ichimoku signals a **bullish Kumo breakout**
- Short setup:
- Ichimoku signals a **bearish Kumo breakout**
Entry rules (pending STOP orders around TEMA with volatility buffer):
Breakout execution uses the **TEMA(112)** level shifted by a volatility expansion component based on **BB Width Ratio(180)**:
- LONG: place a Buy Stop at
TEMA(112)[3] + 0.8 × BB Width Ratio(180)[1]
- SHORT: place a Sell Stop at
TEMA(112)[3] − 0.8 × BB Width Ratio(180)[1]
Pending orders:
- Validity: 24 bars
- Replacing existing pending orders: Allowed
- Duplicate trades: Disabled
--------------------------------------------
EXIT RULES
- Fixed Profit Target: 195 pips
- Fixed Stop Loss: 35 pips
- Trailing Stop: Not used
- Time-based exit: forced exit after 36 bars
- Friday risk control: forced exit on Friday at 19:00 to reduce weekend gap exposure
--------------------------------------------
VALIDATION
Recommended: validate the build with out-of-sample (OOS) windows, robustness tests, Monte Carlo simulations, and a dedicated TRUE OOS segment to reduce overfitting risk and confirm stability beyond the development sample.
