for seeing the volatility of a market price. If a price is stable the Donchian channel will be relatively narrow. If the price fluctuates a lot the Donchian channel will be wider.

This strategy was made famous by the Turtle Traders who used the strategy to successfully trade commodities in the 1980’s. The Turtles were a group of people that were taught to trade by Richard Dennis and William Eckhardt and then given accounts to trade. The Turtles made millions of dollars during their trading careers and many went on to manage money for other people. The Turtles’ entry strategy used either a 55 day or a 20 day Donchian Channel breakout. Using Market Analyser we can test the effectiveness of a similar strategy in the markets today.
