The Process
The execution pipeline covers setup configuration, signal generation, historical backtesting, paper trading, and live execution with guardrails.
1. Setup Configuration
Configure strategy parameters for your trading environment:
# Set Asia session start time (Jakarta time)export ASIA_SESSION_START="00:00:00"# Configure strategy parametersexport LOOKBACK_CANDLES=7

Live Execution Verification
Slippage stays within configured threshold (<2 pips typically)
One trade per day limit enforced correctly
Cancel opposite order logic works (cancels opposing pending on trigger)
Guardrails prevent trades during abnormal market conditions
Risk Verification
Maximum spread requirement enforced (30 points configurable)
Position sizes calculated correctly based on risk parameters
SL levels placed at 1R from entry (R = last candle range)
TP levels placed at 2R from entry for 2:1 reward:risk

Signal service ($200-2,000/month): Publish daily XAUUSD breakout signals with entry, SL, TP levels. Sell via Telegram/Discord subscription ($20-50/month). Recruit 10-40 subscribers. Include HH/LL levels, R value, and risk rating.
Copy-trading ($100-1,000/month): Let subscribers mirror your trades automatically via broker copy-trade platforms (Myfxbook, ZuluTrade). Performance fee model: 20% of profits or flat $10-30/month per copier. Need a verified track record (50+ trades, >60% win rate).

First Action in 60 Minutes
Generate a trade signal for today by running the 7-candle breakout scanner. This Python script fetches live XAUUSD data, identifies the Asia session 7-candle pattern, computes HH/LL levels and R-multiple, and outputs a structured trade signal with position sizing for your account:
python3 -c "
import yfinance as yf, pandas as pd, json
from datetime import datetime, timezone
# 1. Fetch XAUUSD 15-min data (past 24h covers Asia session)
now = datetime.now(timezone.utc)
start = now.replace(hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0)
data = yf.download('XAUUSD=X', start=start, interval='15m', progress=False)
if data.empty:
data = yf.download('GC=F', start=start, interval='15m', progress=False)
df = data.reset_index()
# 2. Find Asia session open (00:00 UTC) and build 7-candle window
df['Datetime'] = pd.to_datetime(df['Datetime'])
asia_open = df[df['Datetime'].dt.hour == 0].iloc[0] if len(df[df['Datetime'].dt.hour == 0]) > 0 else df.iloc[0]
idx = df[df['Datetime'] == asia_open['Datetime']].index[0]
# 3. Window = COA-3 to COA+3 (7 candles centered on Asia open)
start_idx = max(0, idx - 3)
end_idx = min(len(df), idx + 4)
window = df.iloc[start_idx:end_idx]
if len(window) >= 7:
HH = window['High'].max()
LL = window['Low'].min()
last_candle = window.iloc[-1]
R = round(last_candle['High'] - last_candle['Low'], 2)
current = last_candle['Close']
signal = {
'date': str(now.date()),
'HH': float(HH),
'LL': float(LL),
'R': float(R),
'buy_stop': float(HH),
'sell_stop': float(LL),
'sl': float(R),
'tp': float(round(2 * R, 2)),
'direction': 'BUY' if current < HH else ('SELL' if current > LL else 'NEUTRAL'),
'risk_reward': '2:1'
}
print(json.dumps(signal, indent=2))
print()
# Position sizing examples
for acct, risk in [('$500', 2.5), ('$5K', 25), ('$50K', 250)]:
pos = round(risk / (signal['R'] * 1.0), 2) # $1/pip for mini lot
print(f'{acct} acct: {pos} mini lots | SL: {round(signal[\"sl\"],1)} pts | TP: {signal[\"tp\"]} pts | Risk: \${risk}')
else:
print('{\"error\": \"Insufficient data — need 7 candles\"}')
"
What this does: Pulls live XAUUSD 15-minute candles, identifies the Asia session open candle (00:00 UTC), builds the 7-candle window, computes Highest High (HH) and Lowest Low (LL), calculates R-range from the window's last candle, and outputs a structured trade signal with position sizing for three account tiers.
Next steps after signal:
Verify HH/LL levels against your charting platform
Check spread is under 30 points during Asia session
Set pending orders: Buy Stop at HH, Sell Stop at LL
Place SL at 1R below entry, TP at 2R above entry
Cancel the untriggered pending order after one triggers
