trend watcher

[mpinsdorf]

I'm testing the stepgain strategy at the 15 min BTC chart with the settings below to stepping the price to sell

GAIN = 0.8
SELLLVL1 =0.8
SELLLVL2 = 9
SELLLVL3 = 70
SELLLVL = 1

I see the prices growing up above 3% of profit and start falling hit 1% and the trend watcher still stating that the trend is up. I've tested with the SMAPERIOD 20 and 5, but it seems that it works the same way.

Can anyone help me to improve that at my strategy?

Try it with 5 min period and TA always on.
