Bollinger Flip Flop Strategy

2021년 5월 24일

This strategy combines both long and short Bollinger band strategies with a signal to determine to determine when it's appropriate to use each. Additionally, the strategy has protections in place for market conditions which would normally cause a trade to be stuck due to a long market trend change. Think of it like a stop loss but instead of basing the stop on a percentage from entry, it's based on prevailing market conditions.

This strategy is ideal for controlling trading bots on the 3commas.io platform. To do this, you will need to set up two "simple" bots, one for short trades and one for long trades. Other than their direction, they should be configured identically. Set the parameters for the bot the same as you have them set in the strategy preferences. Once you've done this, set the "Short Bot ID" and "Long Bot ID" fields to the ID numbers for each bot, respectively. Next, set the Email Token parameter (this will be the same for both bots). Once you've done this, you need only configure a single alert per coin pair with the alert message set to {{strategy.order.alert_message}}. Make sure you have all of the strategy settings, including bot IDs and email tokens set correctly before creating the alert. These parameters are saved in the alert and can be safely changed on the active chart once the alert is created without affecting the alert.
