Tech-Anchor Institutional Momentum Hybrid
Family: hybrid · Regime: trending · Complexity: high · Asset classes: Equities (Tech-heavy), Indices (NASDAQ), CFDs · Timeframes: H1, M15
Thesis
The strategy assumes that institutional liquidity (revealed by Order Blocks and FVGs) is most profitable when it aligns with a broad-market 'Tech-Regime' (AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL leadership). By filtering for volatility extensions (Keltner) and smoothed momentum (HA Stochastic), the strategy attempts to enter high-conviction trends while exiting early at the first sign of selling pressure (Bears Power).
Components
- V6 All Features Fixture (regime) — Establishes a 'Tech-Anchor' regime by checking if major tech leaders (AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL) are in an uptrend, assuming their beta drives broader market sentiment.
- Bill Williams Alligator (direction) — Filters for trending phases when the 'Alligator' is eating (lines fanned out) to avoid ranging markets.
- Order Block / FVG Detector (entry) — Identifies institutional liquidity zones or price imbalances to provide precise entry triggers within the established trend.
- Bears Power (exit) — Detects exhaustion of selling pressure (or sudden spikes in it) to trigger exits before a trend reversal.
- Risk Reward Indicator Tool (risk) — Standardizes risk-to-reward ratios and calculates position sizing based on structural stop-loss levels.
- OTLIB Stochastic Oscillator (Heikin-Ashi based) (confirmation) — Uses smoothed price data to confirm that momentum is aligned with the entry trigger, filtering out noise.
- Keltner Channels (volatility_filter) — Ensures the market is not overextended; prevents entering when price is already far outside historical volatility bands.
Known failure conditions
- Hypothesis fails if AAPL/MSFT/GOOGL correlate negatively with the target asset for more than 10 trading days.
- Fails if the 'look-ahead' behavior of the HA Stochastic creates a performance gap between backtest and forward-walk of >30%.
