Fractal Volume Harmonic Reversal (FVHR)
Family: hybrid · Regime: mixed · Complexity: high · Asset classes: Equities, Forex, Crypto · Timeframes: 15m, 1H, 4H
Thesis
The strategy operates on the premise that markets are efficient at seeking high-volume nodes (POC) for liquidity. When price sweeps a high-timeframe liquidity level and forms a harmonic reversal pattern at a volume-profile-defined pivot, it signals a high-probability exhaustion. By entering only when Heiken Ashi-smoothed volatility is expanding, we capture the impulsive exit from these balance zones toward session-relative ATR targets.
Components
- Volume Profile + Pivot Levels [ChartPrime] (regime) — Provides the institutional 'battleground' by identifying high-volume nodes (POC) where price is likely to react or find acceptance.
- Open Source Fractal Model (direction) — Identifies liquidity sweeps (HTF Candle Sweeps) and early market structure shifts (CISD) to determine the tactical direction.
- Custom Pattern Detection (entry) — Provides the specific geometric exhaustion point (harmonic leg completion) within the directional bias.
- ATR Fib (exit) — Targets session-relative volatility extensions to capture mean-reversion or extension moves.
- Volumatic Support/Resistance Levels [BigBeluga] (risk) — Dynamic, volume-weighted S/R bands provide a volatility-adjusted cushion for stop-loss placement.
- ATR Heiken Ashi (volatility_filter) — Filters out low-volatility 'noise' environments using smoothed HA volatility; prevents entry during contraction.
Known failure conditions
- Successive signals occurring entirely within the Volume Profile POC (value area), indicating high-volume chop rather than a reversal.
- Price consistently breaching ATR Fib levels without a retest, suggesting a trend stronger than the session-based mean-reversion model.
