OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Updated Range Filter + ATR Strategy (Low Drawdown)
Key Features for Low Drawdown:
Range Filter: Identifies trends while filtering out market noise
ATR-based Position Sizing: Adjusts position size based on volatility to risk a fixed percentage of capital
Trailing Stops: Uses ATR-based trailing stops to lock in profits and limit losses
Conservative Risk Parameters: Defaults to 1% risk per trade (adjustable)
Trend Confirmation: Requires two consecutive closes above/below the range filter
How to Use:
The strategy enters long when price is above the upper range filter for two consecutive bars
Enters short when price is below the lower range filter for two consecutive bars
Uses ATR to size positions appropriately for current volatility
Implements trailing stops based on ATR to protect profits
Optimization Tips:
Adjust the Range Filter period based on your timeframe
Modify the risk percentage (1% is conservative)
Tweak the ATR multiple for trailing stops (1.5 is moderate)
Consider adding a time-based exit if drawdown is still too high
