A Two-Speed Adaptive Oscillator System for Trend Entries
Summary
This document outlines a forex trend-following expert advisor built around two AdaptiveCGOscillator indicators. A slower instance sets the broader trend from the relationship between its main and signal lines; a faster instance provides entry timing when its lines cross or touch. A trade signal is formed at bar close when the fast and slow directions agree and the fast direction has just changed. The described design therefore uses a higher timeframe for trend context and a lower timeframe for timing.
The document cites a test on EURUSD in 2015, with the slow trend on H6 and entries on M30, and refers to chart illustrations, but gives no numerical performance statistics. The stated tests used default inputs and did not use stop loss or take profit, limiting what can be inferred about risk-adjusted results. It also notes that some charting indicators serve only for visualization in the tester and that a supporting library accommodates broker spreads and order protection settings. The excerpt does not give full parameter values or enough evidence to assess robustness.
Key ideas
- The system combines a slow oscillator trend filter with a faster oscillator for entry timing.
- A signal requires agreement between the two trend directions and a change in the fast direction.
- Signals are evaluated at bar close, with line crosses or touches used for the fast trigger.
- The cited EURUSD test uses H6 trend context and M30 entries, but reports no numerical results.
- The described test omits stop loss and take profit, so its risk behavior remains unclear.
