OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT

Strategy Code Example - Risk Management

*** THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE OF STRATEGY RISK MANAGEMENT CODE IMPLEMENTATION ***

For my own future reference, and for anyone else who needs it.

Pine script strategy code can be confusing and awkward, so I finally sat down and had a little think about it and put something together that actually works (i think...)

Code is commented where I felt might be necessary (pretty much everything..) and covers:
  • Take Profit
  • Stop Loss
  • Trailing Stop
  • Trailing Stop Offset

...and details how to handle the input values for these in a way that allows them to be disabled if set to 0, without breaking the strategy.exit functionality or requiring a silly amount of statement nesting.

Also shows how to use functions (or variables/series) to execute trade entries and exits.

Cheers!
