# Nova

### What AlgoPro Nova Does

AlgoPro Nova is a volatility expansion and trend strategy. It is designed to identify trades when the market is moving with enough range, trend direction, and volume participation.

Nova is not designed to catch every tiny movement. It is better suited for markets that are beginning to expand or trend.

### Core Entry Logic

Nova uses:

* ATR Period
* Volatility Multiplier
* Main Trend Filter
* Main Trend Smoothness
* Volume Confirmation
* Volume Percentile Rank
* Long MA Bias 1 and 2
* Short MA Bias 1 and 2

### How Entries Are Built

ATR measures how much the market is moving.

The Volatility Multiplier controls how strong that movement must be.

The Main Trend Filter checks whether price direction supports the trade.

Trend Smoothness controls whether the trend filter reacts quickly or slowly.

Volume confirmation helps make sure the move has participation behind it.

The MA bias filters allow users to require one or two moving-average trend conditions before allowing longs or shorts.

### How to Tune Nova

If Nova enters too often in chop, increase the volatility requirement, use the main trend filter, or add MA bias filters.

If Nova misses too many good moves, reduce the volatility multiplier or make the trend filter less smooth.

If entries look good but exits are poor, tune TP/SL after entry logic is stable.

### Trade Management

Nova supports:

* Long/short trade toggles
* Close on opposite signal
