Composite indicators: building one condition from several parts
How to combine turnover, spread, buying pressure and trend into a single named value, so an entry reads as one decision instead of six unrelated compa…
Open trading strategies for US stocks, crypto and futures — every rule readable, every rule yours to change.
How to combine turnover, spread, buying pressure and trend into a single named value, so an entry reads as one decision instead of six unrelated compa…
Name the session segment once at the top instead of repeating time comparisons, then give pre-market, the first half hour and the afternoon their own…
Start from yes and let each check say no. A structure that keeps a five-condition entry readable and makes it obvious which check rejected a candidate…
Shorting is not the long rule with the sign flipped: moves down are faster and carry different funding. A short entry with its own target and time lim…
Why raising leverage is a risk decision and not a strategy decision, with an exit block that scales the stop to how much the instrument is actually mo…
A single perpetual-futures strategy where the entry itself picks long or short, instead of running two strategies that disagree with each other.
Resting bid size against ask size as a ratio rather than a raw number, with a spread cap and a short time exit — imbalance decays faster than you thin…
A volatility band and turnover floor that decide whether the market is in a state your strategy was tested in. Everything else stays as you wrote it.
A crypto momentum entry with three ways out, the last one unconditional. The hold cap exists because a position you forget about is the one that hurts…
Five independent ways a day trade has to be able to end, checked in order. Paste this exit block under whatever entry you are testing before tuning an…
A surge filter compared against the symbol's own recent average, not an absolute number, plus a spread guard — because a surge is when the spread is w…
Most people write 'above the average' and mean 'crossing it'. The two produce very different trade counts. Here is the crossing form and what changes.
An entry that reads second-by-second buy and sell volume against resting book size, so a signal is only taken when flow supports the direction you wan…
A pre-market strategy that never carries a position into the opening auction. Entry conditions, the flat-before-09:30 rule, and why that rule is not o…
A minimal scalping entry: a strong move, strong buying pressure, and a spread narrow enough that the round trip does not eat the target.
A stop and target sized from how much the instrument actually moves, instead of a fixed percentage that is too tight on one name and too loose on anot…
A momentum rule for BTC that takes both directions on futures and long-only on spot, with a hold-time cap so no open position outlives your attention…
The same trend idea written on one-minute factors instead of per-second ones, for when you do not want to react to every tick. Shows the _1m suffix in…
The smallest strategy that is actually complete: one entry condition and three ways out. Use it as the thing every more complicated idea has to beat.
The strategy a beginner writes, with the four things it is missing marked in place: no liquidity floor, no spread check, no time exit, no session clos…
Enter on the dip rather than the breakout: price above the long average and rising, but momentarily below the short one. Includes why this beats chasi…
Buy weakness only after the fall has stopped: down more than 4 percent, weak buying pressure, and price already off its low. Entry, exit and risks.
A first-hour breakout that fires only when price clears the recent high on above-average turnover, with a fixed target, stop and time exit.
One idea written tight, middle and loose. If only the tight version works, you found a fluke; if all three work, you may have found something.
A deliberately over-engineered entry, shown so you can recognise the shape. Every condition looks reasonable and together they fit the past, not the f…
A strategy stated as a claim you can falsify: it only fires when the condition it depends on is measurably true, so a bad run tells you the claim fail…
Enter a move only when buy volume genuinely leads sell volume over the same window. The angle sets the trend, the volume ratio decides whether to trus…
A breakout restricted to the first hour, requiring price above the session high plus turnover and buying pressure, so the move has something behind it…
Three checks — daily turnover, resting size and spread — that keep a strategy out of names where the fill will cost more than the edge it is chasing.
A gate that only lets entries through when volatility sits inside a band. Bolt it onto any strategy to stop it trading in conditions it was never test…
