Description
EQL/EQH Reversal SystemA counter-trend strategy that identifies and trades reversals at Equal Highs (EQH) and Equal Lows (EQL) — institutional liquidity levels where stop-loss orders cluster. The strategy anticipates liquidity grabs followed by price reversals.---Strategy Logic:This system scans for price levels that have been tested multiple times within a configurable tolerance. These "equal" levels represent liquidity pools that attract institutional order flow:• Equal Highs (EQH): When price touches the same high level 2+ times, shorts are triggered on the next touch — anticipating a reversal after the liquidity sweep.• Equal Lows (EQL): When price touches the same low level 2+ times, longs are triggered on the next touch — anticipating a bounce after stops are taken.---Key Features:• Session Filter (9:45–14:00 ET): Avoids the volatile opening 15 minutes and late-day chop, focusing on the most tradeable hours.• ATR-Based Risk Management: Dynamic stop-loss (1.5x ATR) and profit target (2.5x ATR) adapt to current market volatility, maintaining a 1.67:1 reward-to-risk ratio.• Clean Execution: One position at a time, no pyramiding, flat by session end.---Settings:Parameter | Default | Description-------------------|--------------|----------------------------------Lookback Bars | 30 | Period to scan for equal levelsTolerance | 5.0 pts | How close prices must be to count as "equal"Session | 9:45–14:00 | Active trading windowATR Length | 14 | Volatility measurement periodATR Stop Mult | 1.5 | Stop-loss distanceATR Target Mult | 2.5 | Take-profit distance---Recommended Use:• Designed for NQ/MNQ futures on 1-minute or 5-minute charts• Works on other liquid instruments — adjust tolerance for price scale• Backtest on your specific market before live trading---Risk Disclosure:Trading futures involves substantial risk of loss.
