//This strategy enters on a bull flag and closes position 6 bars later.  Average true range is used instead of a moving average.
//The reason for ATR instead of MA is because with volatile securities, the flagpole must stand up a noticable "distance" above the trading range---which you can't determine with a MA alone.
//This is broken up into multiple parts: Defining a flagpole, defining the pole height, and defining the flag, which will be constrained to the top third (33%) of the pole height to be considered a flag.
//@version=4

ATR = atr(10) //Average True Range over last 10 bars.

upperATR = ohlc4[1] + ATR[1]  //Open + High + Low + Close divided by 4, + prior ATR.  Just used here for visually plotting the ATR upper channel.
lowerATR = ohlc4[1] - ATR[1] //Open + High + Low + Close divided by 4, - prior ATR.  Just used here for visually plotting the ATR lower channel.

//Current close higher than previous close, and current close minus current open is greater than 3 times the previous ATR.  "3x ATR" is chosen because any less was not a noticeable distance above the trading range.

plotshape(flagpole1, text="flagpole1", style=shape.arrowdown, size=size.huge) //Plots an arrow for flagpole1 for QA testing

//Two consecutive close higer than their previous close, and current close minus PREVIOUS open is greater than 3 times the previous ATR.
flagpole2 = close>close[1] and close[1]>close[2] and (close-open[1]) > (ATR[1] * 3)
plotshape(flagpole2, text="flagpole2", style=shape.arrowdown, size=size.huge, color=color.yellow) //Plots an arrow for flagpole2 for QA testing

//Three consecutive close higer than their previous close, and current close minus open from 2 bars ago is greater than 3 times the previous ATR.

plotshape(flagpole3, text="flagpole3", style=shape.arrowdown, size=size.huge, color=color.white) //Plots an arrow for flagpole3 for QA testing

//A flagpole can be any of the three definitions of flagpole.
flagpole = flagpole1 or flagpole2 or flagpole3

//This will return the number of bars since "flagpole" was true.  Not being used, but could be useful.

after_pole_2 = flagpole[2] //This marks the bar two bars after a flagpole.  
after_pole_3 = flagpole[3] //This marks the bar three bars after a flagpole.  

//This returns the price at the "top" of the flagpole (using close price) at the most recent occurence, 0.

//When all three bars after a flagpole are a flag, the criteria are met and we have a "bull_flag"
