Cross-Horizon Macro-Technical Hybrid

Family: hybrid · Regime: trending · Complexity: high · Asset classes: Forex (Major Pairs), Equities (Liquid ETFs) · Timeframes: M15 (Execution), H1 (Regime)

Thesis

Market edges exist when local 'short-term' exhaustion (Bollinger penetration) occurs in the direction of 'long-term' structural momentum (Heatmap), provided the global macro-environment (Macro Risk) is stable enough to allow technical patterns to play out without exogenous shocks.

Components

Heatmap Framework (regime) — Establishes a multi-timeframe regime bias; prevents trading against the Higher Timeframe (H1) structural trend.
CCI Arrows (direction) — The primary directional driver, identifying momentum shifts back in the direction of the dominant heatmap regime.
Bollinger bands / Connectable [Azullian] (entry) — Identifies local exhaustion (mean-reversion triggers) within the established trend to refine entries.
MACD (exit) — Detects when the specific momentum impulse of the trade has peaked or reversed, suggesting an exit.
Chandelier Exit Heiken Ashi Variant (risk) — Calculates volatility-adjusted stops based on HA extremes to allow for trend breathing while protecting capital.
Relative Strength Index (RSI) (confirmation) — Provides momentum confirmation to ensure the price action is not stalling at the point of entry.
Macro Risk Dashboard v8.2 (volatility_filter) — Provides the primary volatility gate; ensures the strategy only executes when global macro stress is within historical norms (low Z-score).

Known failure conditions

Correlation of heatmap buffers across all timeframes fails to filter out ranging 'chopped' price action.
Macro Risk Dashboard data lag results in taking trades during unmodeled volatility spikes.
Heiken Ashi Chandelier stops are consistently hit before the first MACD histogram shift in a trending environment.
