Swing Hi-Lo DAX weekly mtf

  This a simple (basic) strategy to exploit any swing HIGH & LOW occurring in the weekly TF.

  This strategy may stay ONMARKET even more than 1 year!  Owing (or due ?) to high TP & SL there’s no advantage in backtesting it in tick-by-tick mode.

  I suggest using the 2 or 4-hour TF as default to launch the strategy.

  Experimenting is left to anyone to improve it.
