A Daily Opening-Price Reversal Signal Using Fractal Conditions

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The document describes a reversal idea that expects the current price fractal to return toward the day’s opening price. Its buy condition checks for a current low below the lows of the two preceding bars, together with a bullish current bar that closes above its open. The sell condition mirrors this pattern: a current high above the two prior highs and a bearish bar closing below its open. These conditions define directional signals based on local extremes and candle direction.

The description claims that a sharp trend change may accompany this return, but it supplies no tested results, entry or exit rules, position sizing, stop placement, or definition of how the opening-price target is used. It also does not specify market, timeframe, or fractal confirmation timing. The logic is therefore a signal sketch rather than a complete or validated trading system.

Key ideas

  • The proposed setup expects price to return toward the day’s opening price.
  • A buy signal combines a lower low than the prior two bars with a bullish candle.
  • A sell signal combines a higher high than the prior two bars with a bearish candle.
  • The document gives no performance evidence or complete trade-management rules.
