Pivot Reversal Strategy - FIGS & DATES 2.0Simple Pivot Reversal Strategy with some adding settings.
Date Range: To test over specific market conditions.
Initial Capitol: $10K - This is a more realistic representation of funds used this strategy (for me anyway). The default of $100K can give different results (usually better) than when using a smaller balance.
Order Size: 100% Equity - These trend following strategies typically used this way, going all in each direction.
Commission: .075% - It's always disheartening to think you've found a ridiculously good setting, and then realize you forgot to add the commission.
All of these settings can be changed, but it's easier for me (and more fool proof) to have them set as default.

RSI based trend follower
I'm a fan of "less is more". This indicator doesn't mess up your chart with lines, symbols, moving averages or such; it doesn't even add another oscillator in a separate window, letting you focus only on what is most important: price action. It will silently do its job by plotting an arrow (upward arrow for long triggers and downward arrow for short triggers).
It works really great with strong trending markets on higher time frames, so it gives its best on Stocks on a daily/weekly frame; consider it a long term trading indicator.
