Description
WHAT IT ISSimple long-only daily trend system that combines the classic 50/200 EMA trend filter with an ATR-based trailing stop. Built as a lab tool for studying daily swing trades on major crypto pairs.CORE IDEA* Only trade in a bullish regime (50 EMA above 200 EMA).* Enter when price shows strength in that trend.* Exit using a volatility stop (ATR) or when the trend breaks.* Keep rules simple and transparent so it’s easy to study and tweak.LOGIC (DEFAULT VERSION)Trend filter:* Long signals only when EMA 50 > EMA 200 (bull trend).Entry conditions:* Price confirms strength above the fast EMA in a bullish regime.* Strategy opens a “Long Entry” on the bar that meets the conditions.Exit conditions:* Primary exit: price hits the ATR stop line that trails under price.* Failsafe exit: trend filter breaks / close back under key levels.Timeframe:* Designed and tested on 1D candles (daily bars), especially on BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB.INTENDED USE* Research tool to see how a basic 50/200 + ATR framework behaves through full bull/bear cycles.* Simple daily swing-trade engine for long-only crypto exposure.* Clean baseline to compare against more complex systems and filters.NOTES / DISCLAIMER* Works on any symbol and timeframe, but all testing was on daily crypto pairs.* Parameters are intentionally minimal so you can experiment with your own settings.* For educational and testing purposes only.
