The proposed Chinese equity screen combines three conditions: at least five moving averages are said to overlap, the 9:25 opening gain is below 6%, and the 30-day moving average is rising. The accompanying explanation interprets overlap as relatively stable…
The document presents a simple directional strategy for EUR/USD based on the ordering of three moving averages. It identifies a shorter, medium, and longer average, and enters a long position when they are stacked from shortest to longest in ascending order.…

This Backtrader example combines two entry and exit signals on a selected data feed: a short and long simple moving average crossover, and a MACD line crossing its signal line. Each bullish crossover adds half of the strategy's target stake, while bearish…
ADXVMA is described as a moving average whose calculation weights depend on ADX values. This makes the average responsive to a measure of trend strength rather than relying only on a conventional fixed weighting scheme. The description also notes that the…
The document describes a MACD variant that replaces its fast, slow, and signal moving averages with Arnaud Legoux Moving Averages (ALMA). It calculates weighted averages using a Gaussian-shaped weighting scheme, then subtracts the slow average from the fast…
