Bullish and Bearish Breakout Alert for Gold Futures Pullback

4월 22일

Below is a Pine Script (version 6) for TradingView that includes both bullish and bearish breakout conditions for my intraday trading strategy on micro gold futures (MGC). The strategy focuses on scalping two-legged pullbacks to the 20 EMA or key levels with breakout confirmation, tailored for the Apex Trader Funding $300K challenge. The script accounts for the Daily Sentiment Index (DSI) at 87 (overbought, favoring pullbacks). It generates alerts for placing stop-limit orders for 175 MGC contracts, ensuring compliance with Apex’s rules ($7,500 trailing threshold, $20,000 profit target, 4:59 PM ET close).
