// READ THIS CAREFULLY!!! ----------------//
// This code is provided for educational purposes only.  The results of this strategy should not be considered investment advice.
// The user of this script acknolwedges that it can cause serious financial loss when used as a trading tool
// This strategy has a bias for HODL (Holds on to Losses) meaning that it provides NO STOP LOSS protection! 
// Also note that the default behavior is designed for up to 15 open long orders, and executes one order to close them all at once. 
// Opening a long position is predicated on The Trend Flex Oscillator (TFO) rising after being oversold, and ATR above a certain volatility threshold.
// Closing a long is handled either by TFO showing overbought while above a certain ATR level, or the Trailing Stop Loss.  Pick one or both.
// If the strategy is allowed to sell before a Trailing Stop Loss is triggered, you can set a "must exceed %".  Do not mistake this for a stop loss.
// Short positions are not supported in this version.  Back-testing should NEVER be considered an accurate representation of actual trading results.
