Description
Strategy to trade bitcoin on a one week perspective.
About the strategy:
I’ve build this strategy originally to trade on the EUR-BTC markets. But I’ve backtest it on USD-BTC markets and I’m sure it can do good.
It uses 1 minute candles.
It embodies a strong stop loss (the stop loss is set at 5% of loss ) for every trade. The strategy studies the variations of the price and seeks to identify rebounds to make the investments decisions.
If often goes under the market but it is way more secure thanks to its stop loss mechanisms.
