Box-Trend Volatility Pulsar
Family: pullback · Regime: trending · Complexity: medium · Asset classes: FX, Equities, Crypto · Timeframes: H1, H4, D1
Thesis
The strategy assumes that market structure breakouts (Boxline) followed by directional momentum (SuperTrend) signify the start of a new impulse wave, and that local momentum exhaustions (RSI oversold in an uptrend) provide optimal entry points for trend resumption before the smoothed trend (Heikin-Ashi) reverses.
Components
- Boxline (Dynamic Range Breakout) (regime) — Defines the market regime by identifying structural breakout points; prevents entries within consolidated noise.
- SuperTrend MT5 (FxGeek) (direction) — Provides the directional bias, ensuring momentum is aligned with ATR-adjusted trend flows.
- Relative Strength Index (RSI) (entry) — Acts as the precision trigger to capture mean-reversion pullbacks within the established trend.
- Heikin-Ashi Candles (exit) — Filters micro-noise to provide a trend-persistence exit based on candle color changes.
- GAS Price Levels (risk) — Uses multi-factor volatility (Bollinger/ATR) to define dynamic stop-loss levels and risk-adjusted sizing.
Known failure conditions
- Continuous series of false Boxline breakouts (whipsaws in expansion).
- GAS volatility levels contracting so tight that spreads exceed the ATR-based stop distance.
- Trend persistence fails to last more than 3 candles (average duration is too low to cover costs).
