Long entry based on a new high for the specified time period
This strategy checks for a new high value of the specified time period (PeriodType). A long entry order is generated for the next bar at one point above the highest high of the current period. PeriodType can be replaced with any of the following values:
HiPeriod | Time frame |
2 | Daily |
3 | Weekly |
4 | Monthly |
5 | Yearly |
below 2 or above 5 | Entire chart |
For PeriodType values of 2-5, each new time period (new day, new week, and so on) occurs, the highest value will be reset to the first high of the new time period.
