DAX40 H1 Long Trend System

This intraday strategy runs on the DAX40 CFD at the H1 timeframe and focuses exclusively on long trades. The logic is built around trend following, with two moving averages doing the heavy lifting: a slow MA(185) to define the broader directional bias, and a faster MA(16) to confirm short-term momentum. A trade is only considered when the price sits above both, and above the 1000 level as a basic sanity filter.

To keep things clean, the system includes time-based restrictions. Entries are blocked after 17:30, and all positions are flattened outside the window between roughly 16:59 and 22:30. Weekends are excluded entirely.

Risk management is fixed and straightforward: a stop loss of 67 points and a take profit of 185 points, giving a risk/reward ratio of approximately 1:2.75. Only one position can be open at a time.

Since it only goes long, the strategy performs best in trending bullish conditions on the DAX. In choppy or bearish periods, it will simply stay out of the market.
