How does the Wunder Keltner bot strategy work ?
The Wunder Keltner bot is an automated trading strategy that leverages the Keltner channel breakout system. Utilizing separate channels for long and short positions enhances the precision of entry points according to the current market trend. The strategy incorporates the following key components:
- Application of two distinct Keltner channels to discern optimal entries for long and short trades respectively.
- Employment of the ADX indicator to filter out signals and assess the vigor of trends, with entries confirmed only when ADX values surpass a predefined threshold.
- Provision of three Stop Loss and Take Profit calculation methods: a classical fixed percentage approach, an ATR-based Stop Loss, and a Keltner channel opposite band Stop Loss for determining the exit points.
- The integration of Risk Reward (R:R) ratios in conjunction with ATR and Keltner channels to compute Take Profit levels relative to established Stop Loss parameters.
- An innovative feature for portfolio risk management, which calibrates the trade amount in dollar terms against the Stop Loss, enabling traders to define and limit risk exposure as a percentage of their total portfolio.
Additionally, the script offers functionality to custom backtest over selected periods and translates the dollar entry amount for exchange-execution accuracy. It is vital to set the risk per trade lower than the Stop Loss percentage to avoid mandatory leverage use.
New updates include a backtesting period selection in the strategy settings and a fix for alert comments within the FIX mode.
