Description

A Heikin Ashi candle morphology sequencer engineered to detect three-bar momentum accelerations following a directional color-flip reversal. Filtered by ADX trend strength and equipped with a dual-mode exit system — a 1-bar impulse capture by default, or full ATR-based TP/SL management with a hard-cap Plug stop — the strategy is purpose-built for ultra-short timeframe execution where speed and structural precision matter more than sustained trend duration.═══════════════════════════════════════KEY FEATURES═══════════════════════════════════════Heikin Ashi Morphology Sequencer— Three consecutive wickless candles required (open = low for longs, open = high for shorts)— Each bar's body must strictly exceed the prior bar's body size— A color-flip on the 4th lookback bar confirms genuine regime reversal— Separate long and short sequencers with mirror-image logicPrecision Heikin Ashi Source— True HA values pulled via ticker.heikinashi() and request.security()— No approximation — morphology integrity preserved across all timeframes— Overlaid cleanly on the standard candlestick chartADX Trend Strength Filter— Full DMI calculation (DI+ and DI−) via ta.dmi()— ADX must exceed configurable threshold at signal bar— Eliminates entries during directionless, low-conviction market conditionsDual Exit System— 1-Bar Exit (default): close command issued on entry bar, executes at next bar's open— ATR Mode: TP and SL locked at entry price using prior bar's ATR — no mid-trade recalculation— The Plug: hard percentage stop caps maximum loss regardless of ATR width═══════════════════════════════════════HOW IT WORKS═══════════════════════════════════════Step 1 — Color-Flip ConfirmationThe 4th bar back must be the opposite color to the signal candles. Bearish on bar 4 precedes long setups; bullish precedes shorts. This confirms the sequence is an emergence from the opposite regime — not continuation of exhausted momentum.Step 2 — Three-Bar Acceleration SequenceBars 1, 2, and 3 (looking back from signal bar) must each be wickless on their entry side and larger in body than the preceding bar. For longs: open equals low on all three bars. For shorts: open equals high. The expanding body size requirement confirms compounding directional conviction, not just sustained direction.Step 3 — ADX GateADX must exceed the configured threshold at the moment of signal. This confirms the market is exhibiting sufficient trend energy to justify a momentum entry. Signals that pass candle morphology but occur during low-ADX environments are filtered.Step 4 — EntryEntry is placed at the open of the bar immediately following the signal. No repainting — all conditions are evaluated on confirmed bars.Step 5 — ExitDefault (1-Bar): strategy.close() is issued on the entry bar. With process_orders_on_close = false, the engine triggers execution at the very next bar's open — harvesting the initial impulse and exiting before any adverse development.ATR Mode: TP and SL are calculated once at the position-open bar using the prior bar's ATR value (avoiding look-ahead). Levels are locked into strategy.exit() immediately. The Plug applies math.max() (longs) or math.min() (shorts) to enforce whichever stop is tighter — ATR-derived or percentage-derived — so maximum loss is always bounded.═══════════════════════════════════════THE WICKLESS CONDITION EXPLAINED═══════════════════════════════════════A wickless bullish Heikin Ashi candle occurs when haOpen equals haLow — meaning buyers controlled every tick of that bar with zero retracement. Three consecutive wickless bars with each body larger than the last represents compounding momentum conviction. It is a structural fingerprint of institutional-grade directional pressure, not random noise. The color-flip prerequisite ensures this conviction is fresh — not the tail end of a prior trend.═══════════════════════════════════════THE PLUG — RISK ARCHITECTURE═══════════════════════════════════════ATR-based stops are volatile by nature — during wide-range sessions, a 2× ATR stop can represent a significant percentage drawdown. The Plug introduces a percentage-based ceiling on loss distance that operates independently of ATR. Whichever stop is closer to entry price is applied. This design ensures that even in extreme volatility conditions, a single trade can never breach a user-defined maximum loss threshold.═══════════════════════════════════════RECOMMENDED USE═══════════════════════════════════════— Primary timeframe: 1-minute (strategy is named and tuned for this)— Works on any liquid instrument: forex, crypto, equity futures, indices— 1-Bar Exit mode is best suited for instruments with tight spreads and fast fills— ATR mode with The Plug is better suited for instruments with wider intrabar volatility— Lower ADX thresholds will increase signal frequency; higher values increase selectivity— Backtest across multiple sessions before deploying with real capital
