WaveTrend+ Strategy [SystemAlpha]

23 ago 2020

This is a WaveTrend strategy based on WaveTrend Oscillator. In addition to using the normal crossovers, we use trend filters, trailing stop loss and take profit targets. WT+ Strategy was developed for crypto, forex and stocks for 15 minutes to daily timeframe. The main goal was to catch long term trends and ride them.

In this strategy you have a choice of:

Trend Filters:
- Average Directional Index (ADX)  – buy when price is trend is up and sell when trend is down.
- Moving Average (MA) – buy when price close above the defined moving average and sell when price close below moving average
- Parabolic SAR – buy when SAR is above price is above price and sell when SAR is below price.
- All - Use ADX, MA and SAR as filters

For MA Filter , you can use the “TF MA Type”  and "TF MA Period" parameter to select Simple or Exponential Moving Average and length.

Stop Loss:
- Average True Range (ATR) – ATR % stop as trailing stop loss.
- Parabolic SAR (SAR) – Parabolic SAR adapted as trailing stop loss.
 
For ATR , you can use the “ATR Trailing Stop Multiplier” parameter to set an initial offset for trailing stop loss.

Take Profit Target:

- Standard % – Percent as target profit
