INTRODUCING APEX BREAK RETEST
Most retail algorithms rely on dangerous volume averaging, infinite grids, or martingale recovery to mask poor market timing. Apex Break Retest takes the exact opposite approach: it is a pure single-order system where every single position enters with a strictly calculated Stop Loss and a fixed 1:2 Take Profit.
The strategy automates the proven Break and Retest methodology:
1. Identifies key swing high resistance and swing low support on the H1 timeframe.
2. Filters directional bias using the Higher Timeframe (H4) 50 Exponential Moving Average.
3. Requires a minimum 30% expansion past the broken level to confirm institutional participation and eliminate false breakouts.
4. Demands a slow, measured retest approach of at least 3 candles, ensuring the market does not violently invalidate the level.
5. Triggers on candlestick rejection at the retested level with dynamic ATR buffer protection.
BUILT FOR REAL-MARKET PERFORMANCE & PROP FIRMS
Whether trading personal capital or managing funded prop firm accounts (such as FTMO, Goat Funded Trader, or FundedNext), capital preservation is paramount.
Key Architectural Safeguards:
- No Grid, No Martingale, No Hedging: Maximum 1 position open at any time per symbol.
- Fixed 1:2 Risk-to-Reward Ratio: Generates mathematically sound positive expectancy even during normal consolidation periods.
- Hard Stop Loss on Entry: Stop loss is placed beyond the structural rejection swing with an ATR buffer, sent directly to the broker server with the order.
- Dynamic Lot Sizing: Calculates exact volume based on your chosen risk percentage (default 1.0%) and current account equity.
- Built-in Margin and Volume Guards: Automatically verifies broker volume limits and required free margin before order submission to prevent execution rejection.
