(Introduction) Tired of manually drawing trendlines and missing opportunities due to hesitation or distraction? 😩 Discover Dynamic Trendline Pro Bot 🤖, the cBot for cTrader designed to automatically identify key support and resistance levels and act on them with surgical precision. Free up your time and let the algorithm monitor the market 24/7 ⏱️, executing your trendline-based strategy objectively and tirelessly. Ideal for traders seeking a systematic approach on Forex, Indices, Commodities (like Oil and Gold) 📊, and other markets.

(Core Strategy) The heart of the bot is a sophisticated automatic trendline detection system. By analyzing the last N candles (NumberOfCandles), it identifies the most significant turning points to draw dynamic support and resistance lines 📉📈. You can choose whether to base the analysis on the absolute highs/lows (HighLow) or the closing prices (Close), with separate parameters for support and resistance (SupportPriceSource, ResistancePriceSource) for maximum flexibility.

The bot doesn't just draw lines; it actively trades when the price interacts with them, offering complete control over the entry logic:

• Breakout 💥: Enters the market when the price decisively breaks the line.
• Touch 👇👆: Reacts when the price touches the line, potentially for bounce/rejection trades.
• Approach 🤏: Can even act when the price gets within a critical distance of the line (ApproachDistancePips).

For each of these 3 scenarios, and separately for support and resistance, you can define the desired action: ContinueTrend ✅ (follows the "natural" direction of the event), Invert 🔄 (reverses the direction), or NoAction 🚫 (ignores the event).

(Key Features & Flexibility)

• 📐 Automatic & Configurable Trendline Detection: Choose the lookback period and price source (Close vs High/Low) separately for S/R.
• ✔️ (Optional) Advanced Trendline Validation: Filter lines by minimum required touches or by slope angle.
• 🚥 Multi-Scenario Entry Logic: Leverage Breakouts, Touches, and Approaches with fully customizable actions (Continue/Invert/None) for each combination.
• 💰 Flexible Position Sizing: Choose between Fixed Lots or Fixed Monetary Risk per trade.
• 🛡️ Advanced Position Management: Set separate limits for max Long/Short positions, specific SL/TP per direction, Trailing Stop, and Break-Even Stop.
• 🚦 Multiple Signal Quality Filters: Trade only when conditions are ideal with optional MA Trend, RSI Confirmation, and ADX Range filters.
• ⚡ Powerful Override Modes: Handle volatile events with Manual or ATR-based "Force ContinueTrend" overrides.
• 🛠️ Highly Optimizable: Wide range of parameters allows for deep optimization across different instruments and timeframes.

⭐ Optimized Backtests & Parameter Explanations Included! ⭐ This isn't just a tool; it's a potentially ready-to-use solution! Check the uploaded images to find:

• Optimized backtest results demonstrating potential performance on key assets like Gold, Oil, and Indices.
• Ready-to-use parameter sets derived from these optimizations, giving you a great starting point.
