Qullamaggie Breakout V2
Zaktualizowano
After publishing the Qullamaggie Breakout script and seeing that it had some decent results, I wanted to explore it a bit further. There were a few things I didn't like about that methodology that didn't really jive with the way I like to trade. So what I did was combined the Breakout Trend Follower strategy I had been using for entries with the Qullamaggie strategy for trailing stops once in profit. The results seem pretty good to me and an approach that fits my personality and something I can actually trade. Typically better profit than the Breakout Trend Follower by giving more room for your winners to run, while still protecting your entries by moving up the trailing stop until you are in profit, all while taking less trades, so that's great.
Everything is done with stop orders. So you set your buy stop at the recent swing high point and wait for a breakout. Once in a position you set your sell stop at the recent swing low point. The most recent swing high and low are shown on the chart for easy reference with the blue and orange horizontal lines. Once in a trade, trail your sell stop after a new swing low is registered (shown by the thicker orange stop line). Once you are in profit, leave that hard stop level there (the orange line will stay there helping you). Now, you wait for price to cross a Moving Average of your choosing (default is Daily 10 MA). Once the bar crosses that moving average, you move your stop to the low of that candle (shown by the blue stop line) and trail your stop along every crossing of the moving average until the trend changes and takes out your stop. So managing this trade is pretty easy...just wait for the stop lines to move and move your stop with them. It's a great way to trade when you can't be at your computer all the time because the stop orders take care of execution on both buy and sell side. If you use a daily timeframe for your moving averages (the default), you really only need to move stops around about once a day, so is a good part time trader's strategy in my opinion.
The best opportunities will come by scanning for stocks in the longer term timeframe of your moving averages. Wait for a consolidation on that timeframe so the anticipated breakout has some room to run. Once you've identified a good candidate, zoom in to your lower timeframe where the swing highs/lows will act as your entry and exit points, all while keeping the moving averages consistent between timeframes.
Hope you guys find it useful.
A few options available:
- Choose any timeframe for your moving averages, while using swing high/low points on intraday charts.
- Choose one of two moving averages shown for your trailing stops (default 10 and 20 MA).
- Choose to use the third moving average as a filter for keeping you out of trades that are below it (trading with the trend).
- Use the charts resolution candle or the moving average resolution candle for the moving average trailing stop.
- Only take trades where your buy level minus stop level is below a % of the Average Daily Range (ADR). This allows you to potentially have better risk/reward. I added a little table that shows the ADR of the stock/ticker as well as the range between the recent buy and sell levels (shown by the orange and blue horizontal lines) for easy reference.

Update to v5Informacje o Wersji
I learned that when you have calculated colors in a script, it prevents the user from adjusting colors on even non-calculated things. Since the ADR box changes color based on certain conditions, this table is blocking this user-controlled color adjustment. So I've added it back manually via the settings. Now you can change the colors of the moving average lines as well as the stop/trailing stop lines.Skrypt open-source
