Fractal Flow RSX Motive Strategy

Family: hybrid · Regime: trending · Complexity: high · Asset classes: Futures (Gold, Oil, S&P 500), CME Currencies · Timeframes: H1, H4

Thesis

Market reversals are driven by 'Smart Money' sweeps of liquidity followed by a Change in Sub-Structure (CISD). This hypothesis posits that an edge exists by entering only when these structural shifts are confirmed by actual Open Interest inflows and high-quality momentum, using Elliott Wave pivots to define structural risk.

Components

• Heiken Ashi (Standard MT5) (regime) — Filters out noise and ensures the entry aligns with smoothed price momentum, preventing counter-trend attempts in strong impulses.
• Open Source Fractal Model (direction) — Identifies the core institutional entry logic: liquidity sweeps of HTF levels followed by a Change in Sub-Structure (CISD).
• Relative Strength Quality Index (RSX) (entry) — Provides a lag-reduced momentum trigger to ensure the market structure shift is backed by high-quality price velocity.
• Average True Range (ATR) (exit) — Used for volatility-adjusted take-profit targets to capture moves proportional to current market expansion.
• Elliott Wave [LuxAlgo] (risk) — Uses ZigZag-based wave counts to identify the most recent structural pivot (Wave 2 or 4) for hard stop-loss placement and position sizing.
• Open Interest Stochastic Money Flow Index (confirmation) — Confirms that the price move is supported by actual capital inflow/outflow via Open Interest, rather than just retail churn.

Known failure conditions

• Price invalidates the Elliott Wave count (Wave 4 enters Wave 1 territory) before reaching TP.
• Open Interest remains flat or declining during a 'breakout', suggesting a retail-led trap.
• Heiken Ashi flips color immediately after entry, indicating a lack of trend persistence.
