Completing The Fractal-Based Trailing Stop Logic

Previously (see this article: http://www.winnersedgetrading.com/trade-of-the-day/defining-our-fractal-based-trailing-stop-ea), we explored how a fractal point itself could be defined in pseudo-code and we also defined some variables that would remember where our last fractal points were. In addition, we created some pseudo-code logic to tell us where the trailing stop would go. Read more »

Trend lines are great for identifying breakouts and therefore, possible trade entry points... Read more »
