Strategy Name: ATR Trend-Following System with Volatility Filter & Dynamic Risk Management
Short Name: ATR Pro Trend System
Current Version: 2025 Edition (fully tested and optimized)Core ConceptA clean, robust, and highly profitable trend-following strategy that only trades when three strict conditions are met simultaneously:Clear trend direction (price above/below EMA 50)
Confirmed trend strength and trailing stop (SuperTrend)
