Chande Kroll Stop – FX Replay Guide

The Chande Kroll Stop in FX Replay is a volatility-adjusted trailing stop indicator that helps you dynamically manage trades, set smart stops, and occasionally catch reversal entries. It’s ideal for structuring trades around trend confirmation, risk management, and post-breakout trailing logic.

How to Use It in FX Replay

Add the Indicator:

• Go to Indicators → Search “Chande Kroll Stop”.
• Apply it with default or custom settings:
  • ATR Length (e.g., 20)
  • P (Lookback): How far back to check high/low reference
  • Q (Stop Length): How long stop stays active
  • Multiplier: How far from the reference point the stop is set

Trade Signal Use:

• Buy Signal:
  • Price closes above both stop lines.
  • Enter long → set stop just below the blue line.
• Sell Signal:
  • Price closes below both lines.
  • Enter short → set stop above the orange line.

Dynamic Stop Management:

• Use the stop lines as real-time trailing stops:
  • Blue = active stop level for longs
  • Orange = active stop level for shorts
• As price trends, the stop follows volatility-adjusted structure.

Combine With FX Replay Tools:

• Confirm setups with:
  • SMMA or Alligator for trend filtering
  • PO3 phase or session timing for execution context
  • VWAP to validate breakout continuation
• Use in backtests to define stop-loss logic that adjusts with market conditions.
