This strategy identifies trend reversals in crypto assets based on PIVOT swing high/low points and breakout signals. It belongs to the breakout reversal strategy category. The strategy first calculates the recent highest and lowest price points as PIVOT levels, then detects if price breaks out these key levels, signaling major trend changes.
Calculate PIVOT High/Low Points
Uses ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() to find highest high and lowest low prices over a custom bar lookback period to plot PIVOT points.
Identify Breakout Signals
If price breaks above PIVOT low point, or breaks below PIVOT high point, the strategy considers it as trend reversal signal.
Set Filter Conditions
Requires price to breakout PIVOT levels by meaningful distance, and closing price crosses 150 bar closing prices to avoid whipsaws.
Entries and Exits
Trigger buy signal on long condition, close long position on exit condition. Similarly for short setup rules.
The strategy is robust overall to capture large reversals, but needs customized parameters per asset and risk controls. With further optimization and guardrails, it can perform well across crypto markets.
