    <hr />
    <p>
      This open source project is about momentum base trend following systematic trading strategies inspired from top trend following traders (Richard Denis, Olivier Seban and Nick Radge) implemented for various trading platforms as TradingView, cTrader and QuantConnect.    </p>
    
    <ul>
      <li>
        Our trading algorithms are designed to be understandable and usable by both novice and advanced technical traders. Basic knowledge of programming is an advantage for the full use of our strategies.
      </li>
      <li>
        The strategies presented on our website are designed as long only, which means that they are suitable for trading in markets that have long-term growth potential with strong momentum, such as cryptocurrency Bitcoin or stock index Nasdaq 100.
      </li>
      <li>
        Our strategies are optimized for medium-term trading and use daily charts, which allows effective management of trades with a longer time horizon.

    <h3>What is trend-following trading?</h3>
    <p>
      Trend following is when you try to capture extended moves in the financial markets, either up or down, mostly for long-term gains. Once in a while prices tend to keep on going (enduring) and these are the moves trend followers like. The aim is to capture most of such moves, not all, but the majority of them.
    </p>
    <p>
Trend followers are not trying to predict tops and bottoms. They are not trying to predict anything, really. The aim is, quite simply, to take advantage of moves in different asset classes in the anticipation that some of the positions go their way big time. There is zero forecasting involved.
