Dynamic Step-Breakout Synthetic Flow System

Family: breakout · Regime: trending · Complexity: medium · Asset classes: FX, Equities, Crypto · Timeframes: 1H, 4H, 1D

Thesis

Market trends often begin with a volatility expansion that breaks a recent price structure (Boxline). By ensuring this expansion occurs in the direction of the long-term trend (SMA) and is supported by intraday price-action volume proxies (Footmap) without being overextended (RSI), one can capture the high-momentum phase of a move while exiting via volatility trailing stops (Chandelier).

Components

• Boxline (Dynamic Range Breakout) (regime) — Defines the market regime by establishing boundary 'steps'; a breakout signal indicates a transition from compression to expansion.
• Simple Moving Average (SMA) (direction) — Acts as the primary trend orientation to ensure trades align with the dominant directional bias.
• Relative Strength Index (RSI) (entry) — Identifies local momentum exhaustion/reversals (oversold/overbought) to time entries at high-probability inflection points.
• Commodity Channel Index (CCI) (exit) — Detects momentum decay via price normalization to exit trades before mean reversion occurs.
• Chandelier Exit (risk) — Provides a volatility-adjusted trailing stop to protect capital and lock in profits.
• Footmap – Heat & Volume [v1] (confirmation) — Confirms trade validity by ensuring Buy/Sell delta (synthetic order flow) supports the direction of the breakout.

Known failure conditions

• Consecutive Boxline breakouts that immediately reverse into the opposite box boundary (choppy regime).
• RSI stays in extreme zones for extended periods while price stagnates.
• Synthetic Footmap delta consistently shows negative values during price increases (heavy divergent absorption).
