Backtest Results

Smart Breakout strategy based on volatility squeeze + impulse breakout.

Mechanism:
  1. Dual-engine squeeze detection:
           BB squeeze:    Bollinger Band width < its SMA * bb_squeeze_thresh
           ATR compress:  ATR < ATR SMA * atr_compress
         Both must agree → squeeze active.
  2. Track Donchian high/low during the squeeze.
  3. When squeeze releases (first bar no longer in squeeze, after min_squeeze_bars):
         a pending range box (high, low) is created.
  4. Breakout: close > range high + impulse candle → long entry.
                           no short entry at present
         Impulse: candle body > ATR * impulse_mult.
  5. Stop loss: opposite range boundary: ATR * sl_buffer, capped at ATR * max_sl_atr_mult from entry.
  6. Take profit: entry ± stop_loss_distance * rr_ratio.
