Overview
Donchian Trend Follow EA enters trades using Donchian channel breaks with an ensemble of three periods (30, 60, 120) requiring a minimum of 2 votes. Multiple filters including t-statistic, efficiency ratio, volatility regime, session, spread, news, higher timeframe, and channel compression are applied. Exits use the Donchian exit channel, ATR-based stop loss, partial closes, breakeven, time stop, and optional trailing stop. Lot sizing is based on risk in USD, scalable by votes and volatility. It includes risk controls like daily limits.
