    This is a simple idea I read about in internet. It seems to get moderate good results in most of indexes. It entries only long on tuesday if monday has been negative. I added the posibility to entry wednesday with both monday and tuesday negatives.

    Please take into consideration:

    • *****VERY IMPORTANT****: It goes WITHOUT STOPLOSS, you can define it with the variable STOPPERCENT that probably dependes of each index. As the system exit always at the end of day so it´s not so dangerous but still….
    • Without defined spread as it depends also of the index
    • The position size is determined by the varible “Capital”, that is the amount you want in each operation. This PositionSize can be modified by other parameters.
    • My timezone is UTC+0 so it can be differences with my results depending of yor TZ

    I think this system benefits from the last years index uptrends and maybe this is not so good moment to operate but anyway I think is interesting to consider

    // ***********PARAMETROS SISTEMA***************
    DEFPARAM CUMULATEORDERS= false
    DEFPARAM PRELOADBARS = 10000
    // ***************VARIABLES*******************
    CAPITAL         = 10000 //Valor en euros de cada operación
    STOPPERCENT     = 999999
    PROFITPERCENT   = 4
    TRAILINGPERCENT = 4
    //***********TAMAÑO POSICION*******************
    Rate = 1 //Cambio de 1€ en la moneda del activo. En Forex es la segunda divisa
    PositionSize = (Capital*Rate*pointsize)/(close*pointvalue)
    POSITIONSIZE2 = POSITIONSIZE
    ////PASARLO A REDUCCION?
    XPREVDAY1 = 1.4
    XPREVDAY2 = 1.2
    XBOLL1    = 1.2
    XBOLL2    = 1.1
    
    IF DCLOSE(1)-DOPEN(1)<-1*CLOSE/100 THEN
    POSITIONSIZE = POSITIONSIZE*XPREVDAY1
    POSITIONSIZE2 = POSITIONSIZE2*XPREVDAY2
    ELSIF DCLOSE(1)-DOPEN(1)<-0.5*CLOSE/100 THEN
    POSITIONSIZE = POSITIONSIZE*XPREVDAY2
    ENDIF
    
    IF BollingerBandWidth[20](close)>0.024 THEN
    POSITIONSIZE = POSITIONSIZE*XBOLL1
    POSITIONSIZE2 = POSITIONSIZE2*XBOLL1
    ELSIF BollingerBandWidth[20](close)>0.012 THEN
    POSITIONSIZE = POSITIONSIZE*XBOLL2
    POSITIONSIZE2 = POSITIONSIZE2*XBOLL2
    ENDIF
    
    //************ENTRADAS Y SALIDAS***************
    LONGENTRY = DAYOFWEEK=2
    LONGENTRY = LONGENTRY AND HOUR=1
    LONGENTRY = LONGENTRY AND DCLOSE(1)-DOPEN(1)<-0.1*CLOSE/100// AND DCLOSE(2)-DOPEN(2)<0
    //LONGENTRY = LONGENTRY AND BARINDEX-TRADEINDEX>20
    
    LONGENTRY2 = DAYOFWEEK=3
    LONGENTRY2 = LONGENTRY2 AND HOUR=1
    LONGENTRY2 = LONGENTRY2 AND DCLOSE(1)-DOPEN(1)<-0.5*CLOSE/100 AND DCLOSE(2)-DOPEN(2)<-0.1*CLOSE/100
    //LONGENTRY = LONGENTRY AND BARINDEX-TRADEINDEX>20
    
    IF LONGENTRY  THEN
    BUY PositionSize CONTRACTS AT MARKET
    ELSIF LONGENTRY2 THEN
    BUY PositionSize2 CONTRACTS AT MARKET
    ENDIF
    
    IF ONMARKET AND HOUR>=20 THEN
    SELL AT MARKET
    ENDIF
    
    SET STOP %LOSS STOPPERCENT
    SET TARGET %PROFIT PROFITPERCENT
    
    ////*****************TRAILING STOP FUNCTION**************************
    trailingstartLONG = TRAILINGPERCENT*CLOSE/100//Si se ponen puntos poner *pointsize
    //When the trailing stop starts and the distance the stop keeps from the last higher/lower close
    //reset the stoploss value
    IF NOT ONMARKET THEN
    newSL=0
    ENDIF
    //manage long positions
    IF LONGONMARKET THEN
    //first move (breakeven)
    IF newSL=0 AND close-tradeprice(1)>=trailingstartLONG THEN
    newSL = tradeprice(1)
    ELSIF newSL>0 AND close-newSL>=trailingstartLONG THEN
    newSL = close-trailingstartLONG
    ENDIF
    ENDIF
    //stop order to exit the positions
    IF newSL>0 THEN
    SELL AT newSL STOP
