Hull Moving Average Signals with Price Breakout Confirmation

Summary

This strategy uses the Hull Moving Average (HMA) and a selected candle price series to define directional signals. It compares HMA with the previous candle’s chosen price, then enters long when price rises above HMA and short when price falls below it, subject to the stated directional conditions. Positions are closed when price crosses back to the opposite side of HMA while the HMA and candle comparison indicate the corresponding exit condition.

The document explains the intended use of HMA smoothing and price breaks to follow trends and reduce repeated entries in choppy markets. It provides parameter choices and a sample BTC/USDT futures backtest configuration, but reports no performance results or evidence that the rules are profitable. The notes flag sensitivity to HMA settings, whipsaws near the average, and the limits of relying on one indicator. They suggest testing filters, wider or adaptive stops, and position management; suitability across markets and timeframes remains unproven.

Key ideas

• HMA is compared with a selected candle price series to set directional conditions.
• Long and short entries require price to cross HMA in the direction of the intended trade.
• The strategy closes positions when price returns across HMA under its stated exit conditions.
• The document gives a BTC/USDT futures backtest setup but no performance results.
• HMA parameter sensitivity and repeated crossovers can cause missed moves or whipsaws.
