Slow Trend Following

This is a slow trend following strategy that uses a trend following indicator to determine long and short positions. It also incorporates a stop loss and take profit based on price fluctuations. The strategy is conservative in its risk management, with a measured risk calculation to determine position size. It also has customizable hyperparameters for further optimizations. This is a strategy that worked well for me during a bear market too. It's not super aggressive, but it's safe enough for me to trade BTC with it in most market situations.
