The 2 bar breakout system is designed to capture short term trends by going long or short depending on the pattern formed by the 2 most recent price bars. The essence of this method is to look for reversal of the immediate directional momentum.
The rules of this method are:
Long trades
Enter:
Today’s low is less than the previous day low
Today’s high is less than the previous day high
Today’s close is less than the open
Go long at the next trading bar if the price goes above today’s high + 1 tick
Exit:
Use a trailing stop at previous day’s low
Short trades
Enter:
Today’s low is greater than the previous day low
Today’s high is greater than the previous day high
Today’s close is greater than the open
Go short at the next trading bar if the price goes below today’s low - 1 tick
Exit:
Use a trailing stop at previous day’s high
To see this method in action, let’s try it out on EURUSD currency pair.
