Overview I have made this strategy mimicking the legendary traders group, Turtle’s 20days high low break strategy with more options available for take profit(TP) and stop loss(SL) conditions.
The main component of the strategy is same as my indicator, Previous N days/weeks/months high/low(see the link below) and with this strategy, you can backtest previous N days high/low break strategy. Unlike the indicator, you can specify another previous N days high/low as TP condition. This is because Turtle used 10days low as TP condition for 20days high break buy strategy, according to articles/books about them. ATR and other factors which is said to be used in their original strategy are not included in this strategy.
Previous N Days/Weeks/Months High Low
What is Turtle? Turtle is the group of traders founded by Richard Dennis and William Eckhardt to prove their theory that good traders can be trained or not. It is said that Turtle had made more than 175 million dollars over 5 years and some of the traders has become fund managers or successful individual traders even after the experiment.
What is this strategy like? The strategy generates long entries once prices break previous N days highs and short entries when previous N days lows broken. N is user input so you can adjust it for your own strategy. As mentioned above, you can also specify another set of different previous N days high/low for TP conditions. e.g. 55 days high(low) break for entry and 20days low(high) break for take profit condition.
How to use it? What this strategy shows is almost same as the indicator, Previous N days/weeks/months high/low. It displays previous N days/weeks/months highs and lows and you can set up entry condition based on previous N days high/low. Previous N weeks/months highs/lows can be used as take profit points when you develop your own strategy based on this.
See the parameters below for the rest of the details.
Parameters TP condition: You can select from “Pips”, “When opposite entries” or “Previous high low break”.
When “When opposite entries” selected, the strategy exits the open positions when opposite directional entries happened. e.g. Long positions will be closed when short entries made.
If you would like to exit positions with specific previous N days highs/lows, you can enter N in Previous N days High/Low for TP field with “Previous high low break” selected.
SL condition: You can select from “Pips” or “Swing High/Low”. If “Swing High/Low” selected, left bars and right bars need input to determine swing high/low.
Note: If you select “pips” in TP/SL conditions, it currently works only for forex pairs.
What timeframe is the best for this strategy? As this strategy is for swing trading, longer timeframes are the best. Base on my quick check upon strategy’s performance over USD pairs in forex, daily timeframe works best, however, it could fit in with lower timeframes such as 4H and 1H by adjusting TP/SL conditions.
Look at the sample result below. The result shows the strategy’s performance for USDJPY for over 40 years on Daily timeframe and it performs fairly good with more than 2 profit factor over long period of time with up-trending equity curve. It is just a simulation but the data shows Turtle’s strategy still works.
