Variable Keltner Channel For DCA

2023년 11월 24일

Hello Everyone,

Sharing the indicator that I'm using for Dollar Cost Averaging into the stocks & ETFs in my portfolio.
Instead of entering regularly each month, entry only happens when the share price is below the indicator.

This indicator is based on Exponential Moving Average & Keltner Channel.
When 21 EMA is above 34 EMA, the line is 1 ATR below the 21 EMA. (green color)
When 21 EMA is below 34 EMA, the line is 2 ATR below the 21 EMA. (red color)

Exploring ways to refine this further, especially during sideways or transition to downtrend, do comment if you have any idea.
This strategy itself was based on SMA 50 strategy for DCA.
