ATR Trailing Stop + Alert (Long Mode)
ATR Trailing Stop (Long Mode) is a volatility-adaptive exit tool designed to protect profits while allowing strong trends to develop.
By combining the Average True Range (ATR) with a highest-value trailing mechanism, the stop dynamically adjusts to market conditions and only moves upward during active long trades. This structure helps reduce emotional decision-making and enforces disciplined risk management.
As volatility expands, the stop automatically widens to avoid premature exits. As price continues trending higher, the stop locks in gains by trailing behind price action in a systematic way.
Key advantages:
Volatility-based dynamic stop distance
Non-decreasing trailing logic (long-only mode)
Clear visual stop levels and break signals
Built-in alert for stop hits
Ideal for trend followers, swing traders, and systematic traders who want a structured and reliable method for managing long positions without second-guessing exits.
