VWolf - Basic Edge

OVERVIEW

VWolf - Basic Edge is a clean and accessible crossover strategy built on the core principle of moving average convergence. Designed for simplicity and ease of use, it allows traders to select from multiple types of moving averages—including EMA, SMA, HULL, and DEMA—and defines entry points strictly based on the crossover of two user-defined MAs.

This strategy is ideal for traders seeking a minimal, no-frills trend-following system with flexible exit conditions. Upon crossover in the selected direction (e.g., fast MA crossing above slow MA for a long entry), the strategy opens a trade and then manages the exit based on the user’s chosen method:

Signal-Based Exit:Trades are closed on the opposite crossover signal (e.g., long is exited when the fast MA crosses below the slow MA).

Fixed SL/TP Exit:The trade is closed based on fixed Stop Loss and Take Profit levels.Both SL and TP values are customizable via the strategy’s input settings.Once either the TP or SL is reached, the position is exited.

Additional filters such as date ranges and session times are available for backtesting control, but no extra indicators are used—staying true to the “basic edge” philosophy. This strategy works well as a starting framework for beginners or as a reliable, lightweight system for experienced traders wanting clean, rule-based entries and exits.
