The bicycle is ready. Of course there is no alligator there, I wanted to see what I could squeeze out of one. Trade on channel breakdown.
In addition to general settings, there are signal settings in the settings:
SignalByCandleClose - wait for the close candle above/below the channel
BreakevenPtsFilter - we can set the value of breakdown in points, if 0, it will be ignored.
ChannelSlopeFilter - use or not the channel slope filter for making a deal
ChannelSlopeFilter - to use or not the channel slope filter for making transaction
SlopeFilter_DirectUndirect - if the previous parameter is enabled, then (by example, selling) true - selling at breakdown of the sloping channel, false - selling at breakdown of the channel sloping upwards

What else we may try - a signal by channel slope, a signal on reversal of channel borders, combination of channels in a channel. The latter requires a proper source code.
p.s. In the tester, it is of course beautiful at an optimized period, but not so. Mixon is right, the analysis does not work. )))

If I have watched it now I have noticed many unnecessary deals (I should not have deals inside the channel, only on the breakdowns). The deal to buy came earlier than the breakdown (this is dangerous!).
You have excluded the fractals and the alligator, while they are the main elements of the Williams trading system. The channel, as I said, only clearly indicates the breakdown, but the fractals and the alligator are the filters that guarantee the planned movement (in theory).
This channel indicator certainly changes the direction in the trend, but the deal opened even against the trend gives a minimum profit on the mean line of the channel.
P.S. The buy deal opened by the conditions of my technical task during the day had a loss, but did not reach SL and now I am in the black again.
Now I looked and noticed a lot of unnecessary deals (According to the principle there should not be deals inside the channel - only on breakdowns). A buy trade came before the breakdown (dangerous!).
In my EA?
Yes. After the test, open a chart and select a TF bigger than the test and see what the channel was and the trades within it.

Here's my lisp on the subject, for the tester. And some test results:
