This is a script for testing binary options trading strategies. To test a strategy, modify the 'go_down' or 'go_up' booleans. These SHOULD NOT access any current values (for example, 'ohlc4' or 'close'), or the backtesting will not be an accurate representation of the forward values.
Modify the fraction_return input to be the return rate of the option on success. This is assumed to be a true 100 or 0 option- i.e. if the choice is not correct, there is a 100% loss.
The strategy in place is merely an example, and as you can see, has a very negative rate of return when implemented as a strategy.
Please comment in your code if you use this in any future posts. Thanks!
