They told us to avoid low ADX.
Turns out... that's exactly where the real edge hides.
• Volatility = open–low difference
• Breakout level = low + (3.3 × volatility)
• Stop entries only
• Entry filter: 8am–3pm
• Exit: when ADX > 40 or after time limit
This flip gave us a consistent edge in markets most traders avoid.

I’ve tested hundreds of indicators across thousands of strategies.
But one tool keeps showing up in my best-performing systems:
✅ Average True Range (ATR)
It’s simple.
It’s powerful.
And it’s one of the most versatile indicators I use in my hedge fund.
Here are 3 ways to unlock its full potential:
ATR for Entries
✔️Pick a POI (Point of Initiation).
✔️Multiply ATR by 2.5 (or your own factor).
✔️That’s your breakout entry - precise, adaptive, and fast to implement.
ATR as a Filter
✔️Compare two ATR periods to detect volatility shifts.
✔️Filter out weak setups.
✔️This small tweak can radically improve your equity curve.
ATR for Exits
✔️Flip the logic you used for entry.
✔️Use ATR to calculate dynamic stop loss levels.
✔️Simple math that protects real capital.
With ONE indicator, you can build entry logic, risk filters, and exit rules.
That’s a complete strategy driven by volatility, built to scale.
No clutter. No guessing. Just process.
