ATH / 52W Mechanical Breakout Strategy

This is a fully mechanical breakout strategy based on All-Time Highs and 52-Week Highs.
The system is built around a simple principle:
strength tends to lead to more strength.
When price breaks a significant high, momentum participants and trend followers enter the market. With no prior resistance above the level, price often has room to expand.
How It Works
• Detects breakouts above All-Time Highs or 52-Week Highs
• Enters long when a new high is created
• Exits using either:
– ATR trailing stop (Chandelier style)
– EMA close-based exit
The ATR stop automatically adjusts to volatility, keeping the system objective and rule-based.
Key Features
• Fully mechanical — no discretion required
• Works across stocks, indices, commodities and crypto
• Not over-optimised
• Designed for trend environments
• Removes emotional decision-making
Important Notes
This is a trend-following strategy. It will experience losing trades during sideways or choppy conditions. Its edge comes from capturing larger directional moves over time.
Always forward test and manage risk appropriately.
If you want something slightly shorter and more minimal (TradingView sometimes prefers concise):
