Channel Escape

Measures how wide price has been ranging and compares that to the corridor on offer.

Pace
Longer scans. Each contract runs for minutes rather than ticks, so the bot holds one position at a time. Shorten the duration to turn positions over faster.

How it works

  1. This contract draws a barrier above and below the price you enter at.
  2. It pays on whether price stays inside that corridor or leaves it, not on direction.
  3. Bollinger Bands draw a channel around the average price, and its width is how far price usually strays.
  4. A channel wider than the corridor means price routinely travels that far, so the bot buys Goes Out.
  5. A narrower channel buys Stays In instead.
