Intraday UT Bot Strategy with Multi-Timeframe EMA and ADX Filters
Summary
This intraday strategy uses an ATR-based UT-style trailing level to trigger long and short entries. It filters those signals using a fast EMA and, optionally, a longer EMA on the chart timeframe, a one-minute EMA, a 15-minute EMA, ADX, and a minimum distance from the fast EMA. Entries are permitted only during a specified daily time window. The supplied settings include fixed percentage take-profit and stop-loss exits, plus an additional exit when the fast and trend EMAs cross against the position.
The strategy is presented as a five-minute bot, though the script’s behavior depends on the chart timeframe and uses separate data requests for its one-minute and 15-minute filters. It also closes all positions at the end of the allowed session. The document includes parameter defaults and code, but no backtest report, market specification, transaction-cost assumptions, or evidence supporting the promotional claim in its description. Its stated rules can be inspected, but profitability and suitability cannot be inferred from the material provided.
Key ideas
- Entries occur when price crosses the ATR-based trailing level and passes the enabled trend and strength filters.
- The filters can compare price with chart-timeframe, one-minute, and 15-minute EMAs, as well as ADX and EMA distance.
- The strategy allows entries only during a defined daily time window and closes positions at its end.
- Positions have fixed percentage profit and loss exits, with an additional EMA crossover exit.
- The document supplies strategy rules but no backtest evidence to establish performance.
