Topic: Simple Strategy

I would like to find a profitable system with only one opening logic condition and one closing logic condition. I have two that back-tested well and which are in the process of forward testing. I will reveal one of them here:

Open long at the upper band of Donchian channel- Close at specific take profit and stop loss.

The variables change depending on the market and the specific time frame for that market.

Can someone else please share a simple strategy?

I don't think you can do better than Mr Popov's fractal strategy as an example of something simple that works.

Re: Simple Strategy

It does look good. However, with my broker's data, not so good. But that is the simplicity I am looking for.

I achieved similar results also with Bollinger bands as opening logic
