Confluence Pulse & Structural Regime Trader
Family: trend_following · Regime: trending · Complexity: medium · Asset classes: Equities, Forex, Crypto · Timeframes: H1, H4, D1
Thesis
Market participants exhibit a 'directional memory' where long-term historical candle distributions reflect underlying institutional bias. By combining this structural regime with multi-timeframe trend alignment and a high-confluence momentum/volume trigger, we can enter high-probability trend extensions while using volatility-based stops to survive minor pullbacks.
Components
- Candle Count History (regime) — Establishes the long-term structural bias (regime) by identifying if the historical distribution of candles is skewed toward bulls or bears.
- Multi Timeframe Moving Average Dashboard (direction) — Aligns the trade with the aggregate trend across multiple horizons to ensure the trade is not fighting a dominant higher-timeframe flow.
- IAE — Technical Confluence Score (entry) — Acts as the high-conviction trigger by requiring multiple technical factors (momentum, volume, S/R) to align simultaneously.
- MACD Classic (3-Line) (exit) — Identifies momentum exhaustion or trend reversals to exit the position before price reverts to the mean.
- ATR Stop Loss Finder (risk) — Provides volatility-adjusted risk spacing to prevent premature exit during normal market noise.
Known failure conditions
- The Candle Count History shows a balanced distribution (50/50) while price remains in a tight range, indicating no structural bias.
- The MTF Dashboard shows conflicting signals across major timeframes (e.g., H4 Bullish / D1 Bearish), suggesting a lack of trend coordination.
- The IAE Score remains below 50 during significant price moves, indicating the scoring engine is miscalibrated for the current asset.
