Overview
Position sizing is calculated dynamically to risk a fixed percentage of current equity based on the market's Average True Range (ATR). Exits are automatically set using an ATR-based stop loss and a take profit target derived from a risk-reward multiplier. Settings allow tuning of the EMA period, ATR period, stop multiplier, target multiplier, and risk percentage.

This mean-reversion strategy plots Bollinger Bands and a long-term moving average directly on the price chart. It enters trades when price candles penetrate the outer Bollinger Bands beyond a user-defined body percentage, anticipating a price reversal. Entries
This overlay strategy targets one-minute ES futures and plots volume-weighted moving-average bands from the open, scaled by a standard-deviation multiple, plus a slower band from ten-minute opens. A higher-timeframe exponential moving average can filter trades
STRG-BBForce is a Bollinger Bands trend-following strategy. It calculates standard Bollinger Bands and tracks directional alignment across the upper, lower, and basis lines. When all three lines slope upward, it opens a long position and closes short positions
This trading strategy combines three Exponential Moving Averages (8, 14, and 50 periods by default) with Stochastic RSI and Average True Range (ATR). It enters a long position when EMA 1 is above EMA 2, EMA 2 is above EMA 3, and the Stochastic RSI %K line cros
This strategy generates buy and sell signals based on Bollinger Band crossovers combined with a simple moving average trend filter. It enters a long position when price crosses above the lower band while trading above the SMA filter line, and enters a short po
This overlay strategy combines a Chandelier Exit with a zero-lag least squares moving average. Although the header mentions Heikin Ashi candles, the calculations use ordinary closes. An ATR trailing stop sets long and short levels, and direction flips when pri
