Strategy

For each candle, calculate percentage change between current and previous close:

((Close[current] - Close[previous]) / Close[previous]) × 100

• BUY when change ≥ entry threshold (default 5%)
• SELL when change ≤ -entry threshold

Each trade runs independently with configurable TP/SL until closed.
