The Supertrend Distance Breakout strategy watches the Supertrend for sharp expansions. When readings jump beyond their average range, price often starts a new move.
A position opens once the indicator pierces a band derived from recent data and a deviation multiplier. Long and short trades are possible with a stop attached.
This system fits momentum traders seeking early breakouts. Trades close as the Supertrend falls back toward the mean. Defaults start with
SupertrendPeriod = 10.
