Dual Thrust Strategy indicator

Dual Thrust Strategy indicator

The Dual Thrust trading algorithm is a famous strategy developed by Michael Chalek. It has been commonly used in futures, forex and equity markets. The idea of Dual Thrust is similar to a typical breakout system, however dual thrust uses the historical price to construct update the look back period — theoretically making it more stable in any given period.

Calculation parameters and upper and lower rails

(1). The highest price of N on High, HH, the lowest price of Close on N Day;

(2). The highest price of Closed N on the N day, the lowest price LL of Low on the N day;

(3). Range = Max(HH – LC, HC – LL)

(4). Calculate the upper track: Buyline = Open + K1 * Range

(5). Calculate the lower rail: Sellline = Open – K2 * Range

Construction system

(1). When the price breaks above the upper rail, if it holds the short position at that time, it will close the position first and then open the multiple position; if there is no position, it will open the multiple position directly.

(2). When the price breaks down the lower track, if it holds multiple positions at that time, it will close the position first, then open the short position; if there is no position, open the short position directly.

Dual Thrust feature

When K1<K2, the long is relatively easy to be triggered; when K1>K2, the short is relatively easy to be triggered, and when K1>K2, the short is relatively easy to be triggered. Therefore, when using this strategy, investors can refer to the optimal parameters of historical data testing on the one hand, and on the other hand, they can start with their own judgments on the post-trend or from other major cycle technical indicators. Adjust the values ​​of K1 and K.
