This price-chart strategy enters long when close breaks the prior Donchian high and short when it breaks the prior low, after a volume check and an optional moving-average regime filter.
The first unit risks a percent of price against an ATR stop. Later units are three quarters, half, and a quarter of that size, added every set ATR step up to four units. An ATR trail starts wider and tightens after a chosen bar count. Optional targets exit at three ATR multiples. A date window can flatten at its start. Signals can change on the live bar.
The inputs you can change from the gear icon on the chart. Defaults are the author's.
