VIX-Validated Triple ADX Momentum

Family: trend_following · Regime: trending · Complexity: high · Asset classes: Forex (specifically EUR/USD due to EVZ dependency) · Timeframes: H1, H4

Thesis

Strong institutional trends are characterized by a 'cluster' of momentum (multi-period ADX alignment) supported by fundamental volume (ADL) and validated by market expectations of volatility (EVZ). By entering pullbacks (Stochastic) within this high-conviction regime and exiting on momentum exhaustion (RSI), the strategy captures the 'meat' of institutional moves while avoiding low-liquidity traps. The edge exists because retail traders often enter on a single-period ADX or RSI signal, whereas institutional moves require multi-dimensional confirmation.

Components

• Easy Trend Visualizer (ETV) (regime) — Establishes a high-conviction trend regime by requiring momentum alignment across three different ADX lookback periods.
• ProfitRobots Dashboard Template (direction) — Ensures the specific currency (EUR) is showing directional strength/weakness across multiple pairs to confirm a 'macro' move.
• Stochastic Oscillator (entry) — Provides the tactical entry trigger by identifying momentum pullbacks within the established ADX trend.
• AI - RSI Strategy (exit) — Acts as the exit trigger and secondary trend filter; exits when momentum reaches extreme 'exhaustion' levels.
• Euro FX VIX (EVZ) Data Loader (risk) — Uses external implied volatility data to dynamically scale stop-loss distance and position size.
• Accumulation/Distribution Line (confirmation) — Confirms that price movement is supported by volume flow, filtering out 'hollow' price spikes.
• Linefill All Visualizer (volatility_filter) — Serves as a volatility-based 'no-trade' zone; if price is outside the dynamically filled high/low channel, the market is deemed overextended.

Known failure conditions

• ADX alignment persists while ADL shows significant divergence (volume exhaustion).
• EVZ (Euro VIX) spikes above 15.0, indicating extreme uncertainty where technical levels often fail.
• ProfitRobots Dashboard shows conflicting directions across EUR pairs despite ETV trend signal.
