The Volatility System was created by J. Welles Wilder, Jr. It first appeared in his seminal masterpiece, "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems" (1978).

Quantitative momentum trading strategy for BTC 12h (long and short).
This would be my second ever published strategy. It is almost the same as my first ever published script . I've been working primarily on UGAZ and DGAZ . This is basically a statistical trade.

This script is designed for those who want to use BitMex's trailing stop. It's not meant to be used as entry exits, but rather to get an idea of how wide the trailing stop needs to be. I suggest you backtest with different values. The script can also be integrated into an existing strategy which does give entry/exits to act as its stop loss.
Allows you to backtest a simple percentage based trailing stop, with a trailing buy. Experiment with different percentages on different timeframes for different charts. For BTCUSD, on daily 4.3% stop and 1.9% buy works well, while on 4hr a 1.5% stop and 1.9% buy works best. Please comment with any other combos that work well for you on different markets or timeframes.
