Specification
I would need a simple Trading Bot to fulfill a seasonality strategy. It buys an instrument at a set time and then sells it again at a later
weekday and time. It has an extra option which is the up/downtick rule which optimizes the entry and exit e.g. by only buying after a certain
sequence of upticks (so not to buy into a downrush). The exit can occur in two partial exits, both time-based. There is an emergency stop loss
active. The EA should also send notifications on trade entry and exit.
EA Settings.
