Discussion of article "Momentum Pinball trading strategy"

 

New article Momentum Pinball trading strategy has been published:

In this article, we continue to consider writing the code to trading systems described in a book by Linda B. Raschke and Laurence A. Connors “Street Smarts: High Probability Short-Term Trading Strategies”. This time we study Momentum Pinball system: there is described creation of two indicators, trade robot and signal block on it.

The rules for exiting the market are not clearly defined in the book: authors say about the use of trailing, about closing on the next morning and about exit higher then the first trading day High.

The rules for sell entries are similar - LBR/RSI should be within overbought area (higher than 70), a pending order should be placed at the Low of the first hourly bar.
