## 📈 Strategy Details



### 1. Trend Pullback (EMA)

*   **Logic**: EMA 200 trend filter + EMA 50 pullback zone.

*   **Confirmation**: 2-bar momentum sequence (Touch -> Break).

*   **Safety**: OnlyNewBar execution + Spread filter.



### 2. S/R Break & Retest

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **HTF Filter**: H4 EMA 200 determines the global bias.

    *   **Level Detection**: Radius (N bars) and Lookback parameters to identify significant local peaks/valleys.

    *   **Validation**: `MaxWaitBars` limits the wait time, and `MaxBreakDistance` tracks deviation to invalidate "tired" breakouts.

*   **Confirmation**: Price touch of the broken level followed by a directional candle close.



---



### 3. ORB Session (Opening Range Breakout)

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Range Detection**: Automated high/low detection for a specified session window (e.g., first 30 mins).

    *   **Trend Filter**: EMA 200 on the current timeframe ensures alignment with the day's bias.

    *   **Discipline**: Strict "One Trade Per Session" rule to avoid overtrading and whipsaws.

*   **Visual Support**: Draws session range lines on the chart for transparency.



---



### 4. Bollinger Mean Reversion

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Volatility Bands**: Bollinger Bands (20, 2.0) identify statistical extremes.

    *   **Trend Filter**: Optional EMA 200 confirmation to align mean reversion with the major trend.

    *   **Safety**: `MaxBarsOutside` limit to prevent catching a "falling knife" during parabolic trends.

    *   **RSI Filter**: Optional RSI confirmation for extreme overbought/oversold conditions.

*   **Dynamic Exit**: Take Profit targets the **Bollinger Middle Band** (The Mean), adapting to market conditions.



### 5. Price Action S/R Rejections

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Level Synergy**: Rejections must occur within a proximity zone (5 pips) of a structural S/R level.

    *   **Candlestick Patterns**: Specialized detection for Pin Bars (long wick rejection) and Engulfing candles.

    *   **Trend Context**: Optional EMA 200 filter to prioritize trades in the direction of market flow.

*   **Disciplined Exit**: Uses a fixed 2.0 Risk-Reward ratio targeting the next structural pivot.



### 6. Liquidity Sweep & Breakout

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Liquidity Detection**: Groups multiple swing points within a 3-pip threshold to identify EQH/EQL zones (Liquidity Pools).

    *   **Sweep Signature**: Tracks price piercing these levels and closing back within the range, identifying a "Stop Hunt" or "False Breakout".

    *   **Conservative Confirmation**: Implements a mandatory wait for a close beyond the sweep candle's range or a Market Structure Break (MSB) to avoid caught in extensions.

    *   **Trend Alignment**: Integrated EMA 200 filter to synchronize liquidity grabs with the major trend direction.

*   **Execution**: Precision "Sniper" entries with SL placed behind the sweep wick and a fixed 2.0 R:R target.



### 7. VWAP Multi-Band Regime

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Regime Filter**: Uses the ratio `ATR / SMA(ATR)` to distinguish between "Balanced" (Range) and "Trending" (Expansion) market cycles.

    *   **Dynamic VWAP Bands**: Calculates ±1σ and ±2σ Standard Deviation bands around the Daily VWAP mean.

    *   **Thick Levels (MTF)**: Identifies high-probability zones where Daily, Weekly, and Monthly VWAP levels converge within 5 pips.

    *   **Mean Reversion logic**: Primarily executes mean reversion trades towards the VWAP during low-volatility "Balanced" regimes.

*   **Execution**: Automated TP at the VWAP mean, with safety SL beyond the outer bands.

*   **Operational Notes**:

    *   **Timezone Sync**: Daily resets and trade limits are synced to the **Broker Platform Time**. Ensure your session settings align with your target market (e.g., London/New York).

    *   **Dynamic SL Tuning**: Recommended `SL_AtrMultiplier` is between **1.0 – 2.0**. For tighter "Balanced" regimes, use smaller multipliers to maintain a positive R:R relative to the `BandMult`.



### 8. Asian Range → London Fakeout & Expansion

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Asian Range Accumulation**: Defines the high/low context during the low-volatility Asian session (00:00 - 06:00).

    *   **London Killzone Monitoring**: Watches start of London session (08:00 - 11:00) for a liquidity grab (Fakeout).

    *   **Fakeout Detection**: Identifies price piercing Asian extremes and closing back inside (Standard Judas Swing).

    *   **Structure Confirmation**: Optional Market Structure Break (MSB) to filter false reversals.

*   **Execution**: Multi-target setup: Mid-range, Opposite side, or fixed 2.0 RR target.



### 9. New York Session Reversal (NY-Fade)

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **London Expansion Filter**: Validates that the London session (08:00 - 12:00) had a significant move (> 1.5x ATR).

    *   **NY Killzone Monitoring**: Watches the NY open window (13:00 - 15:30) for exhaustion.

    *   **Liquidity Sweep (OHLC)**: Detects price sweeping the London High/Low and closing back inside.

    *   **Market Structure Shift**: Confirms the reversal with a minor structure break (MSB) before entry.

*   **Execution**: Targets the London session midpoint (50% retracement) as a high-probability "Fair Value" return.



### 10. Volatility Squeeze Breakout

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **TTM Squeeze Engine**: Monitors Bollinger Bands (20, 2.0) coiling within Keltner Channels (20, 1.5).

    *   **Expansion Confirmation**: Requires a breakout candle to have 1.5x the average range/body size (momentum spike).

    *   **Trend Alignment**: EMA 100 filter ensures breakouts occur in the direction of the dominant trend.

    *   **Compression Filter**: Validates that the "Squeeze" has been sustained for at least 5 consecutive bars.

*   **Execution**: Targets 1:2 Risk-Reward or measured move, with SL placed at the opposite extreme of the compression zone.



### 11. ORB Hybrid / Failure EA

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Opening Range Definition**: Capture high/low of the first 30 minutes of a session.

    *   **Trend Bias (EMA 200)**: Breakouts are only taken if they align with the higher timeframe trend.

    *   **Momentum Expansion**: Uses `ExpansionMult` to ensure the breakout candle is significant.

    *   **Failure Logic (Liquidity Sweep)**: Detects "Fakeouts" where price pierces the OR but closes back inside, triggering a reversal.

*   **Execution**: Multi-mode execution (Breakout vs Failure). TP targets 2.0x RR or the opposite OR boundary.



### 12. Multi-Timeframe Smart-Swing Bias

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **HTF Bias (PERIOD_D1)**: Enforces directional alignment with long-term trend (EMA 200/50).

    *   **Swing Leg Analysis**: Identifies the current structural high/low range on the execution timeframe.

    *   **Discount/Premium Zones**: Targets entries in the "Value Zones" (Retracements of 50%-75% of the leg).

    *   **Rejection Triggers**: Uses Price Action confirmations (Long wicks/Engulfing) for precision entry.

*   **Execution**: Aim for High Reward:Risk setups by targeting external liquidity (Swing Extremes) with a fixed 2.0+ RR.



### 13. SuperTrend + EMA Confluence

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Institutional Bias (EMA 200)**: Ensures all trades occur within the major market regime.

    *   **SuperTrend Adaptive Engine**: Detects trend flips using ATR-adjusted price bands for dynamic S/R.

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Institutional Bias (EMA 200)**: Operates strictly in the direction of the higher timeframe trend.

    *   **Hidden Bullish Div**: Detects Price Higher-Low vs RSI Lower-Low (Springboard setup).

    *   **Hidden Bearish Div**: Detects Price Lower-High vs RSI Higher-High (Exhaustion setup).

    *   **Swing Logic**: Uses structural peaks and troughs to ensure high-fidelity signal mapping.

*   **Execution**: Triggered upon confirmation of the second swing point. SL placed at the structural extreme.

    *   **Adaptive Risk**: Uses 1.5x ATR for safety, as optimized by community backtesting.

*   **Execution**: Triggered when ADX crosses 25 while DI/EMA are aligned. Exit on TP or ADX slope reversal.



### 16. Donchian Channel Breakout

*   **Confluence Stack**: 

    *   **Price Action Breakout**: Triggered by closure outside the 20-period Highest High or Lowest Low.

    *   **Dual Trend Alignment**: Requires price to be above (Long) or below (Short) both 50 and 200 EMAs.

    *   **Volatility Filter (ADX > 20)**: Ensures breakouts happen during active market cycles to avoid false signals.

    *   **Turtle Trailing Exit**: Dynamic Stop Loss that follows the opposite Donchian band (The "opposite wall").

*   **Execution**: Enters at bar close. Exits via trailing opposite band or a 2.5:1 fixed RR target.
