ENTRY LOGIC (MOMENTUM + ICHIMOKU KUMO BREAKOUT + PENDING STOP BREAKOUT)
This EA confirms direction first and executes only if the breakout actually happens.
It combines a MACD strength threshold as a momentum filter with an Ichimoku Kumo breakout as a structure/regime confirmation, then places pending STOP orders at adaptive Bollinger Band levels to avoid guessing direction at market.
Setup conditions (momentum + structure):
- Long setup:
- MACD value confirms bullish momentum strength (MACD 8/52/9, threshold-based)
- AND Ichimoku signals a bullish Kumo breakout (Ichimoku 9/26/52)
- Short setup:
- MACD value confirms bearish momentum strength (MACD 8/52/9, threshold-based)
- AND Ichimoku signals a bearish Kumo breakout (Ichimoku 9/26/52)
Entry rules (pending STOP orders at breakout level):
Breakout execution uses Bollinger Bands as the trigger level:
- LONG: place a Buy Stop at the Upper Bollinger Band (Period 91, Deviation 3.46, PRICE_CLOSE)
- SHORT: place a Sell Stop at the Lower Bollinger Band (Period 91, Deviation 3.46, PRICE_CLOSE)
Pending orders:
- Validity: 148 bars
- Replacing existing pending orders: Allowed
- Duplicate trades: Disabled
--------------------------------------------
EXIT RULES
- Fixed Profit Target: 9.2% (percent-based)
- Fixed Stop Loss: 5.2% (percent-based)
- Volatility-based Trailing Stop: 3.4 × ATR(60)
- 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, and a dedicated TRUE OOS segment (tick retest if available) to reduce overfitting risk and confirm stability beyond the development sample.
