Turtle Trader Strategy

Script from: TradingViewSwingPrice actionMarket structureBreakoutTrend followingMomentumBotVolatility

This trend-following strategy uses two systems for entries. System 1 enters on 20-day breakouts (skipping signals after a win), while System 2 catches major trends on 55-day breakouts. Position size is calculated using ATR to manage risk based on market volatility. Add up to 5 pyramid orders to winning trades as the trend develops. Exits are triggered by shorter-term counter-breakouts, like a 10-day low for a long position.
