variance_ratio_momentum
Detects when price momentum shifts from mean-reverting to trending using the Lo-MacKinlay variance ratio test. When VR > 1 with rising volume, price tends to continue its move. Academic basis: Lo & MacKinlay (1988). 83% WR on 6 trades, +$772.
spike_macd_divergence
Identifies when MACD histogram diverges from price during a volume spike — price makes lower lows but MACD makes higher lows, signaling hidden bullish momentum. Combines classic divergence (Appel 1979) with volume confirmation. 100% WR on 3 trades, +$61.
rsi_hidden_divergence
Finds hidden bullish RSI divergence — price pulls back to a higher low while RSI dips to a lower low, indicating the underlying trend is still strong despite the pullback. Based on Wilder (1978) RSI with trend confirmation via 50-day SMA. 100% WR on 1 trade, +$7.
fib_trend_pullback
3-layer confluence: (1) confirms uptrend via 50 SMA > 200 SMA, (2) waits for price to pull back to 38.2%, 50%, or 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, (3) confirms reversal with RSI divergence. Based on Osler (2000) Fibonacci clustering + Brock et al. (1992) moving average rules. Currently active with QQQ pick.
carry_trade_momentum
Exploits funding rate carry in crypto perpetual futures. When funding rate is strongly negative (shorts paying longs), goes long spot — historically produces 19-115% annualized returns. Based on documented carry trade research from Kraken & Paradigm. 100% WR on 1 trade, +$18.
fractal_sr_bounce
Detects support/resistance levels using Bill Williams fractals (5-bar highs/lows), then buys when price bounces off a multi-touch support zone with volume confirmation. Fractal geometry applied to market structure. 100% WR on 1 trade, +$45.
multi_sigma_reversal
Mean reversion on steroids — triggers when price moves >2 standard deviations from its 20-period mean (a statistically extreme move). Bets on regression to the mean, which happens ~95% of the time per normal distribution theory. 100% WR on 1 trade, +$120.
price_level_magnetism
Identifies "magnetic" price levels (round numbers, previous highs/lows) where order flow clusters. When price approaches these levels with momentum, it tends to get pulled toward and through them. Based on behavioral finance and order flow analysis. 100% WR on 2 trades, +$1.
