EMA Grid + Martingale Strategy (Long-Only) with Cooldown
Short 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.
