31 mar 2023

This is Strategy version of BTC 4h bot 2.0.

Optimized for pairs BTC vs stablecoins, 4h timeframe.



HOW IT WORKS:

Script is based on the fact that there are certain phases of the market when there is a greater probability that BTC will go to one side or the other. To evaluate which phase we are in, the script uses "Main trend" and "Confirmation signals".


Main trend
- Is composed of a combination of several supertrends and moving averages. A Supertrend is a trend following indicator that helps in identifying whether we are in an uptrend or a downtrend. A higher factor is used to capture the main trend and not just small movements. In case the market goes sideways, the Supertrend does not work well, so it is a combination of multiple supertrends along with moving averages to differentiate a real strong trend from a range.
- It can be seen on the graph as a thick solid line.
- In an uptrend is green, in a downtrend red, gray represents the neutral zone.


Confirmation signals
- Are several script-evaluated indicators such as RSI , MACD , ADX and others, which serve to confirm the trend. In this case, it is the opposite way to the Main trend. Confirmation signals are used here to detect small movements. They are trying to capture bullish and bearish price momentum.
- On the graph they are seen as dashed lines above or below the Main trend (in the gray zone they are in the middle).
- It indicates only two signals, green for buy and red for sell.



HOW TO USE IT:

if the Main trend and Confirmation signals are of the same color, it will send a buy or sell signal, depending on which phase of the trend it is in. If the Main trend is e.g. in an uptrend and the market is going up, Confirmation signals should generate a lot of signals. But if the market starts to go in the opposite direction, Confirmation signals should generate fewer signals or none at all, thus reducing the number of wrong trades. In the gray zone of the Main trend it does not open positions.

To close position is possible to use stop loss and take profit or alternative could be to set very high TP value, thereby letting the script close the positions by itself.
The default setting is:
TP: 3.9%
SL: 4.7%.


In this case, it is a strategy to find out how the script worked in the past period. The longest period in which it is possible to test BTCUSD is on the Bitstamp exchange. The script works consistently well over a long period of time, using past probabilities, but this does not guarantee future results.
