Price Move Filter (Crash Protection)

This is the "Emergency Brake". It doesn't look at averages or complex math. It looks at Raw Pips.

How it Works

It calculates the absolute distance from the Daily Open price.

• If price has moved X pips today, STOP EVERYTHING.

Formula

Daily_Move = Abs(Current_Price - Daily_Open)

Score Logic:
If Daily_Move > Threshold_Pips → Force Critical Danger

Recommended Settings

• Threshold: 1500 pips (for 5-digit brokers, this is 150.0 standard pips).
  • Note: Adjust this based on the pair's daily range (ADR). For XAUUSD (Gold), you might need 3000+.

Q&A

Q: Why do I need this if I have ATR?
A: ATR is a lagging average. A "Flash Crash" happens instantly. This filter is instantaneous. If the market crashes 200 pips in 1 minute, this filter triggers instantly, whereas ATR might take time to adjust.
