Description
Title:EMA Grid + Martingale Strategy (Long-Only) with CooldownShort Summary:A long-only strategy combining EMA trend filters, grid-based entries, optional martingale sizing, and a cooldown feature to manage position timing and exits.Full Description:This strategy uses a 4-EMA trend confirmation system to detect bullish momentum, then deploys a grid-style entry method with optional martingale position sizing. It includes a cooldown mechanism to prevent reentry too soon after a completed trade cycle.How It Works 1. Trend Confirmation: Two EMA groups (fast/slow) determine whether market conditions are bullish. 2. Initial Entry: A new position is entered when both EMA groups confirm an uptrend and no position is currently active. 3. Grid Entries: Additional long entries are placed when price drops by a defined pip distance from the last entry, respecting the maximum number of entries. 4. Martingale Sizing (Optional): Grid orders can increase in size with each level using a customizable multiplier. 5. Weighted-Average Exit: All positions close once price reaches or exceeds the average entry price plus a buffer. 6. Cooldown Timer: After closing a position set, the strategy waits a defined number of bars before opening a new grid.Key Features • 4 customizable EMAs for trend confirmation. • Dynamic grid-style long entries based on pip intervals. • Optional martingale-style position sizing. • Weighted-average price exit logic with buffer control. • Cooldown bar period to limit overtrading. • Suitable for optimization and backtesting with full control over inputs.Use Cases • Designed for trending markets where pullbacks present entry opportunities. • Helps manage staged entries while avoiding premature reentry. • Ideal for testing martingale and grid-based strategies with exit precision.Note: This strategy is for testing and educational purposes only.
