VIDYA Solar structural Impulse Strategy

Family: trend_following · Regime: trending · Complexity: high · Asset classes: Equities, FX, Crypto · Timeframes: H1, H4, D1

Thesis

The hypothesis posits that significant trends emerge when structural breakouts (Flip Flop) align with a normalized cyclical momentum shift (Solar Wind) during periods of sufficient relative volatility (VIDYA). By filtering for low-lag trend confirmation (USF) and using a volatility-based exit (TopTrend), the strategy attempts to capture high-velocity directional moves while ignoring noise in low-volatility or over-extended environments. Entry at the 'lowest bearish bar's high' ensures we only enter when price has cleared a local supply pocket.

Components

• Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA) (regime) — Acts as the primary regime filter; its adaptive nature ensures we only trade when relative volatility justifies a trend, avoiding flat markets.
• Solar Wind NRP (MQL5) (direction) — Provides the cyclical momentum direction using Fisher Transform logic to identify when a new trend impulse is gaining strength.
• Flip Flop Indicator (entry) — Provides the execution trigger by identifying breaks in market structure (local highs of bearish bars or lows of bullish bars).
• TopTrend (BBands Stop) (exit) — Used as the primary exit signal; the Bollinger-based trailing stop captures the 'meat' of the move while allowing for volatility expansion.
• Extrem SuperTrend (risk) — Defines the initial hard stop-loss and calculates position size based on current ATR-derived volatility.
• Ehlers Ultimate Smoother Filter (USF) (confirmation) — Serves as a zero-lag trend confirmation to ensure the entry signal isn't a high-frequency noise spike.

Known failure conditions

• The strategy will fail in high-volatility mean-reverting 'choppy' ranges where Flip Flop triggers are immediately met with mean reversion to the VIDYA.
• If Solar Wind NRP displays frequent oscillation (color flipping) within 5 bars, the directional edge is lost.
