OrderFlow-USDX Sweep Cycle Hybrid
Family: hybrid · Regime: trending · Complexity: high · Asset classes: Forex (USD Pairs), Gold (XAUUSD) · Timeframes: 15M
Thesis
Market reversals are most tradable when a liquidity sweep (clearing retail stops) occurs in alignment with the broader macro-trend (USDX) and is confirmed by a positive shift in order-flow momentum velocity (GHOST Angle). By entering at the cyclical trough (DSP) of such a move, we exploit the immediate momentum following institutional repositioning.
Components
- GHOST OrderFlow Dashboard — DerivEAPro v10 (regime) — Provides the momentum angle regime to ensure entries align with order flow sentiment and CVD-driven velocity.
- SilverTrend Sv2 (direction) — Establishes the primary trend direction using range-based temporal offsets.
- Ehlers Detrended Synthetic Price (DSP) (entry) — Triggers the entry by identifying the peak of the price cycle component after trend/momentum alignment.
- Ichimoku Kinko Hyo (exit) — Used as a volatility-adjusted trailing exit and trend-break filter (Kumo cloud).
- ZigZag on Parabolic (risk) — Defines hard stop-loss levels based on the most recent SAR-confirmed price extremum.
- USDX (US Dollar Index) Tracker (confirmation) — Confirms the validity of the move by checking for broad US Dollar strength/weakness across the major basket.
- Reversal Engine Score v1 (volatility_filter) — Filters for liquidity sweep events to ensure the entry occurs after retail stop-hunts.
Known failure conditions
- Price trades consistently below 1845.0 for XAUUSD (invalidating the GHOST hardcoded regime).
- Currency basket constituents for USDX are missing or stale, leading to incorrect MA alignment.
- SilverTrend exhibits indexing errors (e.g., negative array indices) causing script crashes.
