3-Bar Low Strategy

█ STRATEGY DESCRIPTION
The "3-Bar Low Strategy" is a mean-reversion strategy designed to identify potential buying opportunities when the price drops below the lowest low of the previous three bars. It enters a long position when specific conditions are met and exits when the price exceeds the highest high of the previous seven bars. This strategy is suitable for use on various timeframes.

█ WHAT IS THE 3-BAR LOW?
The 3-Bar Low is the lowest price observed over the last three bars. This level is used as a reference to identify potential oversold conditions and reversal points.

█ WHAT IS THE 7-BAR HIGH?
The 7-Bar High is the highest price observed over the last seven bars. This level is used as a reference to identify potential overbought conditions and exit points.

█ SIGNAL GENERATION
1. LONG ENTRY
A Buy Signal is triggered when:

• The close price is below the lowest low of the previous three bars (`close < _lowest[1]`).
  
• The signal occurs within the specified time window (between `Start Time` and `End Time`).
  
• If the EMA Filter is enabled, the close price must also be above the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
  

2. EXIT CONDITION

• A Sell Signal is generated when the current closing price exceeds the highest high of the previous seven bars (`close > _highest[1]`). This indicates that the price has shown strength, potentially confirming the reversal and prompting the strategy to exit the position.
  

█ ADDITIONAL SETTINGS

• MA Period: The lookback period for the 200-period EMA used in the EMA Filter. Default is 200.
  
• Use EMA Filter: Enables or disables the EMA Filter for long entries. Default is disabled.
  
• Start Time and End Time: The time window during which the strategy is allowed to execute trades.
  

█ PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW

• This strategy is designed for mean-reverting markets and performs best when the price frequently oscillates around key support and resistance levels.
  
• It is sensitive to oversold conditions, as indicated by the 3-Bar Low, and overbought conditions, as indicated by the 7-Bar High.
  
• Backtesting results should be analyzed to optimize the MA Period and EMA Filter settings for specific instruments.
