This Pine Script strategy is designed to capitalize on the breakout of the opening range, which is a popular trading approach. The strategy identifies the high and low prices of the opening session and takes trades based on price crossing these levels, with built-in risk management and trade limits for intraday trading.
Key Features:
1. Risk Management: - Risk-to-Reward Ratio (RTR): Set a customizable risk-to-reward ratio to calculate target prices based on stop-loss levels. Default: 2:1
- Max Trades in a Day: Specify the maximum number of trades allowed per day to avoid overtrading. Default: 2 trades in a day.
- End-of-Day Close: Automatically closes all open positions at a user-defined session end time to ensure no overnight exposure. Default: 3:15 PM
2. Opening Range Identification - Opening Range High and Low: The script detects the high and low of the first trading session using Pine Script's session functions. These levels are plotted as visual guides on the chart: - High: Lime-colored circles. - Low: Red-colored circles.
3. Trade Entry Logic - Long Entry: A long trade is triggered when the price closes above the opening range high. - Entry condition: Crossover of the price above the opening range high.
-Short Entry: A short trade is triggered when the price closes below the opening range low. - Entry condition: Crossunder of the price below the opening range low.
Both entries are conditional on the absence of an existing position.
4. Stop Loss and Take Profit - Long Position: - Stop Loss: Previous candle's low. - Take Profit: Calculated based on the RTR.
- **Short Position:** - **Stop Loss:** Previous candle's high. - **Take Profit:** Calculated based on the RTR.
