Equity-FX Macro Sync Momentum Strategy

Family: hybrid · Regime: trending · Complexity: high · Asset classes: Forex (Major Pairs) · Timeframes: H1, H4

Thesis

The strategy assumes an 'Efficiency of Risk Sentiment' where aggressive buying in Mega-cap US Tech stocks (AAPL/MSFT/GOOGL) precedes sustained momentum in FX markets. By combining this equity-based macro regime with a global FX relative strength index (FXTSI) and a local volatility breakout (NNFX), we isolate high-probability trend entries. The edge lies in the confluence of structural market sentiment, relative currency strength, and volatility expansion, rather than price action alone.

Components

• V6 All Features Fixture (regime) — Acts as a 'Risk-On/Risk-Off' filter; it assumes that when mega-cap tech stocks (AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) are in a positive trend, global risk appetite is high, favoring FX momentum.
• Forex True Strength Index (FXTSI) (direction) — Identifies the relative strength hierarchy of currencies; we only trade the strongest against the weakest.
• Pattern Recognition Master (entry) — Provides the precise execution trigger once the macro and volatility conditions are aligned.
• MACD (exit) — Used for trailing the exit; when momentum shifts (signal cross), the trade is liquidated.
• TMA Risk Panel (risk) — Provides dynamic position sizing and ATR-based stops to adapt to changing market volatility.
• NNFX Squeeze (Volatility Breakout) (confirmation) — Ensures we only enter when volatility is expanding (BB > KC), avoiding low-liquidity ranging periods.
• Trendilo MT5 (volatility_filter) — Filters out micro-noise using ALMA-smoothed variance to confirm the momentum has sufficient 'weight' behind it.

Known failure conditions

• Global equity markets (AAPL/MSFT/GOOGL) decouple from FX risk sentiment (e.g., safe-haven USD buying during tech sell-offs).
• Volatility remains perpetually high (BB always > KC), leading to 'perma-squeeze' signals that lose predictive power.
• Execution latency from high security() call counts (56+ calls) makes the strategy non-viable on lower timeframes.
