Smoothed Identity Trend Seeker

Thesis

The strategy hypothesizes that market noise often obscures the true trend direction and entry timing. By using Heikin-Ashi data (which averages price action) to feed both a Stochastic oscillator and a volatility exit, the strategy aims to filter out 'market breath' (minor fluctuations) and only trade when the core momentum (RSX) and volatility structure (SuperTrend) are in alignment. The UDT regime check ensures the computational environment is stable before deploying this lag-heavy logic.

Components

• UDT Array Push Identity Test (regime) — Serves as the structural 'system health' check; verifies the integrity of the data stream by confirming UDT point identity before allowing execution.
• SuperTrend (direction) — Provides the primary directional bias and volatility-adjusted trend floor/ceiling.
• OTLIB Stochastic Oscillator (Heikin-Ashi based) (entry) — Identifies mean-reversion entries within the trend using smoothed Heikin-Ashi price ratios.
• ATR Heiken Ashi (exit) — Synthetic volatility-based exit that accounts for the smoothed price range, preventing premature exits during standard candle spikes.
• Average True Range (ATR) (risk) — Standard volatility measurement for calculating initial stop-loss distance and position sizing.
• Corrected RSX (confirmation) — Filters out minor price noise to ensure that the broader momentum trend is aligned with the SuperTrend.

Known failure conditions

• Strategy remains in a loss for >10 consecutive trades in a ranging market.
• Heikin-Ashi Stochastic repaints historical signals beyond 3 bars, rendering backtest results invalid.
• SuperTrend flip occurs more than 5 times in 20 bars (extreme chop).
