freqtrade/freqtrade-strategies
freqtrade/freqtrade-strategies
this is an example class, implementing a PSAR based trailing stop loss you are supposed to take the `custom_stoploss()` and `populate_indicators()` parts and adapt it to your own strategy
freqtrade/freqtrade-strategies
freqtrade/freqtrade-strategies
This strategy uses custom_stoploss() to enforce a fixed risk/reward ratio by first calculating a dynamic initial stoploss via ATR - last negative peak
