Bull Market Strategies
Strategy Name: Momentum Sniper
Strategy Description:
Momentum Sniper is a momentum sniper strategy crafted for fast-paced environments where volatility fuels sharp intraday moves. It targets short bursts of bullish momentum in highly active stocks, using MACD confirmation and volatility gating to ensure precise entries. With tight profit and risk limits, Momentum Sniper is designed for traders looking to capitalize on rapid price expansions while maintaining disciplined trade management.
Core Setup:
Momentum Trigger: Trades long when the MACD Line crosses above the Signal Line on the 3-minute bar chart—confirming a momentum shift toward bullish price action.
Volatility Filter: Activates only when ATR exceeds 1% of the current stock price, ensuring the asset is experiencing sufficient volatility to support a quick upward move.
Profit Target & Risk Control:
Take Profit: +0.5%
Stop Loss: -0.75%
A 0.67:1 reward-to-risk ratio favors high-probability setups in high-momentum environments.
Ideal For:
Traders targeting explosive upward moves in volatile market conditions
Assets with high intraday range and momentum surges (e.g., growth stocks, small caps, crypto)
Strategies deployed on fast timeframes with algorithmic precision and tight exits
Momentum Sniper provides a refined framework for momentum traders who thrive in volatile conditions — offering fast entries, tight exits, and the ability to capture gains where speed and precision matter most.
