Black Rock Strategy
Overview
The Black Rock Strategy is a breakout-based trading system designed to capture strong directional moves when price breaks out of a significant rolling high or low. The strategy continuously tracks the highest high and lowest low of the previous rolling 24-hour period (fully configurable by the user) and plots these levels directly on the chart as breakout zones. When price successfully breaks above the rolling high, the strategy enters a Long position. When price breaks below the rolling low, the strategy enters a Short position. To maximize profits during strong trends, the strategy also includes an advanced Pyramiding (Winner Averaging) feature, allowing traders to add to winning positions as additional breakouts occur. The strategy comes with built-in Mirrorpip automation support, enabling fully automated trade execution across supported exchanges. here is the source codeKey Features
