🚀 Introduction to the Darvas Box Strategy

Nicolas Darvas, a dancer by trade, crafted a unique and potent trading strategy during his global tours, famously turning $36,000 into $2 million within an 18-month timeframe during the 1950s. His approach, detailed in his book "How I Made $2,000,000 in the Stock Market," revolves around the concept of the "Darvas Box" - a method that encapsulates price movements and leverages breakout patterns, all while keeping a keen eye on volume.

Darvas sought stocks carving all-time highs and observed their trading ranges, creating a "box" from the consolidation periods. He would buy on the breakout above the box and implement a stop-loss below it, ensuring a meticulous risk management approach.
