Price-Time Correlation Trading with Trend and Reversal Modes

Summary

This expert advisor uses the magnitude and direction of price-time correlation to generate trading signals. It offers trend-following and reversal modes, and four ways to calculate correlation: Pearson, Spearman, Kendall, and Fechner. ADX, Bollinger Bands, and time of day act as additional entry filters. A position may be closed when the signal reverses.

The document states that the system was tested on hourly EUR/USD from January 2010 through July 2019 and claims it also works across several currency pairs and longer periods, reaching back to 2004. It provides no performance figures, test methodology, transaction costs, parameter details, or evidence supporting the robustness claim. The stated test range and broad cross-pair assertion are not enough to assess out-of-sample reliability or practical profitability. Readers would need fuller results and implementation details to evaluate the model.

Key ideas

• The EA derives signals from both the value and direction of price-time correlation.

• ADX, Bollinger Bands, and time of day are used as entry filters.
• Trades can close when the signal reverses.
• The document gives a test period and broad robustness claims but no performance statistics or testing details.
