Volatility Momentum Breakout Strategy

Combines ATR-based breakout levels with EMA trend filter and RSI momentum to capture strong moves.

Details

  • Entry Criteria: price closes above/below ATR breakout levels with EMA and RSI confirmation
  • Long/Short: Both
  • Exit Criteria: ATR-based stop loss and 1:2 risk-reward take profit
  • Stops: ATR stop
  • Default Values:
    • AtrPeriod = 14
    • AtrMultiplier = 1.5
    • Lookback = 20
    • EmaPeriod = 50
    • RsiPeriod = 14
    • RsiLongThreshold = 50
    • RsiShortThreshold = 50
    • RiskReward = 2
    • AtrStopMultiplier = 1
  • Filters:
    • Category: Breakout
    • Direction: Both
    • Indicators: ATR, EMA, RSI, Highest, Lowest
    • Stops: ATR
    • Complexity: Intermediate
    • Timeframe: Intraday
    • Seasonality: No
    • Neural networks: No
    • Divergence: No
    • Risk level: Medium
