[mdeacey] EMA% Channel + BB Range StrategyThis strategy is based off the users selection of an EMA and percentage defined channel. The strategy longs when a red "reversal candle" (that exceeds the averages of 3 and 9 above the EMA 3) is found until such time that either the price goes outside the Bollinger Band or the green reversal candle is found. The same but opposite process for shorts. If the price begins trending and moves outside the channel all trades are exited to prevent loss.
For trending markets the sister strategy (" EMA% Channel + Bollinger Band Trending Strategy") should instead be used.
The obvious fallback to this strategy is that:
- If the bands are too wide we don't have a good definition of trending vs ranging and the price can move up/down significantly and trend whilst remaining within the ranging channel. We try to mitigate this through use of a stoploss defined by ATR and a pretty tight channel. This is a tightrope exercise as making the percentage channels tighter misses earlier entries in optimal cases. Change the parameters to find an EMA and percentages to find the best R/R in your case.
Potential further iteration:
- It would be good to see if the R/R changes positively if we only allow shorts above the EMA and longs below it.
All options are configurable and code open source. Happy trading!
