Configurable Opening Range Breakout Research Strategy
Summary
This script is a configurable framework for opening range breakout research across multiple sessions. Its listed entry approaches include breakouts by touch or close, retests of the opening range or fair value gaps, sweep reversals, fading the first breakout, and a first-break decision tree. Users can set direction, entry limits, trading windows, force-close times, and weekday filters.
The feature list also describes several stop and target modes, risk-based or fixed sizing, indicator and market-condition filters, daily limits, breakeven handling, and trailing exits. Optional bid and ask models address trigger timing for entries and stops. The excerpt is largely configuration code and does not show the full implementation details of these methods. It gives no instrument, backtest results, or evidence that any particular setting is effective. Treat it as a research tool whose variants and execution assumptions need separate evaluation, including costs and slippage.
Key ideas
- The framework offers several opening range breakout, retest, reversal, and fade entry models.
- Users can select trade direction, entry frequency, session windows, and forced closing times.
- Risk controls include configurable sizing, stops, targets, daily limits, breakeven, and trailing exits.
- Optional bid and ask models let researchers vary assumptions about entry and stop triggers.
- The excerpt provides no performance evidence, so individual configurations require testing.
