Haven Turtle Channel - The Legendary Strategy of the Turtles
Introducing Haven Turtle Channel – a professional implementation of one of the most famous trend-following strategies in trading history. This indicator is based on the classic rules of the "Turtle Traders" experiment conducted by Richard Dennis and William Eckhardt.

The core of the system is simple and effective: "Trade what you see, not what you think." The indicator automatically plots a Donchian Channel for entries and a separate exit line (Trailing Stop), allowing you to capture the maximum move from every trend.
How Does It Work?
-
ENTRY Signal (Breakout) – occurs when the price breaks the high or low of the last N days (default: 20). The indicator draws solid channel lines (Blue and Red). A breakout of these lines signifies the start of a potential new trend.
-
EXIT Signal (Trailing Stop) – dotted lines inside the channel show exit levels. If you are in a Long position, you exit when the price breaks the low of the last K days (default: 10). This allows you to stay in the market as long as the trend is strong and exit as soon as it reverses.
