EVZ-Structural Liquidity Hunter

Family: hybrid · Regime: high_vol · Complexity: high · Asset classes: EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD · Timeframes: H1, M15

Thesis

The hypothesis is that EUR/USD price action is most predictable when institutional volatility expectations (measured by EVZ) are high, as price tends to oscillate between or break through well-defined liquidity and gamma levels (Q-Levels). By filtering these levels with multi-timeframe trend alignment and momentum exhaustion (Bears Power), we can isolate high-probability expansions towards recent liquidity pools (Liquidity Map).

Components

• Euro FX VIX (EVZ) Data Loader (regime) — Establishes the volatility regime; trades are only executed when expected 30-day volatility is above its 20-period moving average, indicating a high-activity environment.
• Bears Power (direction) — Used to identify momentum exhaustion. In a long setup, we look for the Bears Power to be negative but rising towards zero, suggesting sellers are losing control.
• Q-Levels V2.2 (entry) — Provides the structural trigger. Entry occurs when price interacts with a pre-defined level (Support/Resistance/Gamma Wall) provided via external analysis.
• Custom 004 Liquidity Map with Drawings (exit) — Defines the primary profit target by identifying the 20-period high/low liquidity pools where price is likely to gravitate.
• Extrem SuperTrend (risk) — Calculates the dynamic stop-loss level and determines position sizing based on the distance between entry and the ATR-based band.
• Scalping BTC/USD - EMA & RSI (confirmation) — Acts as a secondary trend/momentum filter; price must be on the correct side of the EMA and RSI must be above/below the 50-midline.
• Multi Timeframe Moving Average Dashboard (volatility_filter) — Aggregates sentiment across timeframes. Only allows trades when at least 3 out of 5 SMAs on the H1 and H4 dashboard are in alignment.

Known failure conditions

• EVZ volatility stays below historical 20th percentile for extended periods, leading to no trade signals.
• Q-Levels text data is not updated for more than 48 hours, making entry levels stale.
• Price exhibits high-frequency 'sawtooth' patterns that trigger SuperTrend stops before reaching Liquidity Map targets.
