Description
This strategy is a precision intraday momentum scalping system explicitly designed for futures markets with defined trading sessions (such as FCPO), but it can easily be adapted for any session-based asset like indices or commodities. The core philosophy of this script is to avoid low-probability zones and only capitalize on high-conviction momentum thrusts.Core Logic & Technical Mechanics:Price Action Momentum: The strategy relies heavily on candlestick anatomy rather than lagging indicators. It calculates the minimum body-to-range ratio and raw body size. An entry is triggered only when a candle closes with a highly dominant body, confirming directional institutional momentum.ATR Volatility Window: A 14-period Average True Range (ATR) is utilized not for trailing stops, but as a Volatility Filter. The script requires the ATR to be within a specific "Floor" and "Ceiling". This prevents the system from entering trades during dead/flat markets (avoiding theta burn) and extreme whipsaw events.Macro Context: A standard 200 Simple Moving Average (SMA) is plotted to provide the user with macro-trend context, while the strategy executes on micro-momentum.Advanced Risk & Session Management:Precision Time Exclusions: The script features highly customizable time filters. It blocks new entries during mathematically proven volatile periods, such as the final hour of trading on Fridays (profit-taking whipsaws) and the last 30 minutes of the daily session.Smart EOD Liquidation: To eliminate overnight gap exposure, the strategy includes an automated End-Of-Day (EOD) force-exit mechanism that flattens all active positions 5 minutes before the daily session closes.Dynamic Circuit Breakers: It includes an advanced money management module that automatically halts trading if a daily maximum trade limit is reached, or if the user hits their monthly profit/loss target threshold.How to Use:Designed optimally for the 5-minute and 15-minute timeframes.Customize your specific market's Morning and Afternoon session hours in the settings.Adjust the ATR limits depending on your asset's average daily range.Disclaimer: This script is for educational and backtesting purposes.
