Entry/Exit Signals

Entry signals are given when price tests the upside deviation or the downside deviation point. This means all entries are executed as limit orders - the entry price is known before the signal is actually given.

When price tests the downside deviation point (green line) a long signal generates. When price tests the upside deviation point (red line) a short signal generates.

Exits

All exits take place at the close of the candle that the entry occurred. Simply, if a position is opened, the candlestick the position was opened on will also be the candlestick the position is closed on. For instance, if a long position is opened on a 30-minute candlestick, as soon as that 30-minute candlestick closes the long position will be closed, whether profitable or not!
