This scalping strategy uses higher-timeframe trend filters to constrain entries on a lower timeframe. It compares the current price with exponential moving averages calculated on hourly, four-hour, and daily intervals; longs require price above all three…

This strategy combines three exponential moving averages with Supertrend direction. It uses the 5-, 10-, and 20-period averages to identify bullish or bearish alignment: the faster averages must sit on the corresponding side of the 20-period average, with…
This strategy combines MACD conditions with a 200-period simple moving average to filter directional trades. The described long setup requires positive MACD momentum and histogram readings, the fast average above the slow average, and price above the…
This strategy places a sequence of buy and sell levels across a price range. The range can be set manually or estimated from recent closing prices using highs and lows, or an average with a deviation. Grid spacing follows from the range and the selected…
This BTC/USDT futures strategy uses the TTM Squeeze framework to identify periods when Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels. It enters a long position after three consecutive squeeze bars and exits when price crosses below a 21-period simple…
The strategy derives speed, acceleration, jerk, and jounce from a Hull Moving Average. It opens long positions when acceleration, jerk, and jounce are all positive, and shorts when all three are negative. Positions may close on a signal in the opposite…
The document proposes a curve intended to flag price highs, lows, and inflection points. It computes short-window averages and dispersion measures from recent price changes, selects the window with the greatest calculated dispersion, and combines that…
This strategy uses moving-average relationships to trade both directions. It describes a 13-period EMA crossing a 33-period EMA as the long or short entry signal, with a 13-period EMA crossing back below the 33-period EMA to exit longs and rising above a…
The strategy uses a 14-period RSI to identify potential reversals: it shorts when RSI crosses above 70 and goes long when RSI crosses below 30. It exits positions on opposing RSI signals or through a trailing stop set 3% from the close. A stated 20% profit…
The described approach combines two exponential moving averages with an Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA). A crossover between the faster and slower EMA supplies a potential directional signal, while price relative to ALMA acts as a trend filter: long…
This strategy opens a long position when a candle's low reaches a specified percentage below its open. It then places a profit target at a fixed percentage above the average entry price and uses a trailing offset to manage the exit. The documented defaults…
This strategy combines Supertrend direction, a 50-period EMA trend filter, RSI confirmation, and an ATR-based volatility condition to generate long and short entries. The described setup uses a 14-period ATR compared with its 50-period moving average, or a…
T-Step LSMA is a trend indicator that smooths price, adapts a step-like baseline to price movement, and fits a least-squares line to that baseline. Its efficiency-ratio term and cumulative movement determine how readily the baseline advances, while a…
This long-only trend-following strategy enters when a short-period moving average crosses above a longer-period average. It exits when the closing price crosses below a separate exit average. Traders can select periods and smoothing methods for the entry and…
This strategy combines pivot-based fractal levels, ATR, and a simple moving average to set up adaptive grid trades. It identifies local highs and lows, then places prospective limit entries at levels offset from those pivots by ATR multiples. A volatility…
This short-term strategy combines three two-candle patterns: engulfing, harami, and harami cross. It classifies each bar by whether it rose, fell, or closed unchanged, then compares candle bodies and ranges to detect bullish or bearish patterns. Traders can…
The narrative describes a BTC/USDT trend strategy centered on a range filter, whose middle line is derived from smoothed price movement. A sustained move through that line is treated as a breakout; RSI is described as an overbought or oversold check, moving…
This trend-following approach builds an upper and lower price band from a simple moving average plus or minus an ATR-based range. It looks for price to cross beyond a band, then uses an exponential moving average to check whether the breakout agrees with the…
This strategy seeks long entries after a bullish engulfing pattern appears in a downtrend. The setup is described as a small bearish candle followed by a bullish candle whose body engulfs the prior body and whose close exceeds the previous high. Trend…
The strategy records the high and low of the third three-minute candle after the market opens, then uses subsequent price breaks to set up long or short trades. Its description sets a 100-point profit target and calls for positions to close at the end of the…
This long-only trend-following strategy enters when a short simple moving average crosses above a longer one. The described periods are 9 and 21, and the strategy sets a profit target 1.5% above the entry price and a stop 1% below it. The accompanying source…
This strategy pairs RSI threshold crossings with candlestick patterns to time entries. It describes buying when RSI rises through 30 alongside a bullish pattern, and shorting when RSI falls through 70 with a bearish pattern. Patterns include single candles…
This technical trading system combines candlestick pattern detection with moving averages to produce directional entries. It describes using a 6-period EMA as a short-term trend reference and 50- and 200-period SMAs for longer-term context. The listed…
This strategy looks for breakouts by comparing Bollinger Bands with Keltner Channels and requiring above-average volume. Its stated defaults use 20-period bands and channels, with Bollinger width based on two standard deviations and Keltner width based on…
