Renko Trading

doss186 · Nov 26, 2016

Hi Senior coders

I found this Renko strategy very useful. At Present the coder reverses at 2bars.
It would be more useful if somebody modifies the code to reverse at single bars
so we can spot the reversals early. Kindly someone modify this to reverse at 1 bar.
