This strategy is a simple moving average (SMA) crossover strategy suitable for cryptocurrency markets. It uses fast, medium and slow SMAs to identify potential entry and exit signals. When the fast SMA crosses over the medium SMA, a buy signal is generated. When the fast SMA crosses under the medium SMA, a sell signal is generated.
The strategy allows traders to set the following key parameters:
Fast SMA, medium SMA and slow SMA are calculated based on the SMA lengths set by the user.
When the fast SMA crosses over the medium SMA, a buy signal is generated. When the fast SMA crosses under the medium SMA, a sell signal is generated.
The strategy calculates the nominal principal per trade based on account funds and acceptable risk percentage per trade. It then uses ATR to calculate the stop loss range and eventually determines the position sizing for each trade.
Can optimize by shortening SMA periods, adding other indicators etc.
This strategy integrates SMA crossover rules, risk management and position sizing for a robust trend following system suitable for crypto markets. Traders can tweak parameters like trading style, market conditions etc. to customize and optimize.
