EMA, PSAR, and TTM Squeeze Signals with High-Low Exits

Article Strategy library · Author: ChaoZhang

Summary

This indicator-combination strategy uses an EMA to identify trend direction, Parabolic SAR to mark potential reversals, and TTM Squeeze to assess volatility and momentum. Its description says long signals combine upward price movement across the EMA and PSAR with a squeeze release, while short signals combine downward movement with a squeeze condition. It also describes stops based on recent highs or lows and profit targets derived from stop distance and a risk-reward ratio.

The document lists adjustable settings and published BTC-USDT futures backtest dates in January 2024, but supplies no performance statistics. The source is truncated, so the complete entry logic cannot be independently established from the material shown; in particular, the short-side squeeze condition is described inconsistently with the usual squeeze-release framing. The stated risks include missed entries from requiring multiple indicators, poor performance in persistent trends, stop breaches, and parameter sensitivity. The claims of steady positive returns are unsupported by results in the document.

Key ideas

  • The strategy combines EMA trend direction, PSAR reversal indications, and TTM Squeeze volatility and momentum signals.
  • Its described exits use recent highs or lows for stops and a risk-reward multiple to set profit targets.
  • Multiple indicator requirements may filter signals but can also delay or omit entries.
  • The document provides backtest settings but no reported performance results.
  • The source excerpt is incomplete, limiting verification of the exact trading rules.
