Renko Trend A

Package: Progster's Renko Trend Strategy A

There are multiple ways to trade a market after performing a Renko analysis of it's price action. This add-on to Swisstrader's Renko Bricks Indicator Package implements a trend-trading style of Renko trading.

What It Is

A single strategy which goes long when an upward Renko trend begins and goes short when a downward Renko trend begins. Profit target and stop loss are expressed in #'s of Renko bricks, and the brick size itself is settable/optimizable.

Many test results from this strategy have been presented in the Renko Research Topic of the CFT Forum.

What It Looks Like

Here is a picture of the Renko Trend Strategy A applied to a 5m chart of JEC:

As can be clearly seen, the basic idea is to trade with newly established Renko trends. This is a "gray box" strategy, so there are a number of subtle entry variations to be selected and/or optimized over.

And here is a picture of just the strategy trading a 100t chart of the ES:

The strategy optimizes easily and quickly on any symbol or timeframe.

You set the scale of interest with your definition of brick size (or let the optimizer vary it), then run the strategy to find out how much price movement was predictive of more movement over the historical data under test.

How It Works

This strategy uses SwissTrader's Renko function to calculate all Renko information.

The function call makes available to the strategy:

	a flag to indicate when a new brick is formed (and in which direction)
	the high, middle, and low value of the newly formed brick
	the age of the current brick
	the number of bricks in the current "brick trend"

and the strategy acts on this information to enter and exit trades at the beginning of new Renko trends.

Special Features

Brick height (price range) may be specified in ticks, or in percent (of price).

Using a brick height in ticks is ideal when daytrading on a low timeframe chart, taking advantage of the strategy's ability to "reset" the Renko calculation at the start of each new session.

Using a brick height in percent provides an "apples-to-apples" comparison of how different symbols trade using a Renko trending technique on high timeframes (i.e. swing trading).

The strategy will trade a "since forever" Renko, or it will reset with each session to any of 3 different reset levels.
