Description
# Sneaky Fractal Confluence StrategyThis open-source strategy combines the Sneaky Pivot three-candle reversal with Emmanuel’s Full Fractal / Half Fractal / Quarter Fractal market structure.## What it requires- A strong impulse candle into the current Magic boundary zone- A stabilizing “sneaky” candle showing rejection- A confirmed candle-body break beyond the sneaky candle- Confluence with an Emmanuel Quarter Fractal boundary- A completed-bar volume and reward/risk filterThe Magic zones are bounded by the prior day’s high/low and the nearest confirmed swing outside that range. The chart also shows the active Full Fractal boundaries, Half Fractal control line, and Quarter Fractals.## Timeframe behaviorThe strategy adapts when the chart changes to 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 1-hour, or daily:- 5-minute: no more than 5 qualified signals per regular-session day- 15-minute: no more than 4 per regular-session day- 30-minute and 1-hour: no more than 3 per regular-session day- Daily: no more than 3 per calendar monthMarkers are informational and remain independent of position state. A fresh confirmed entry marker can therefore appear before a separate exit marker. Same-direction markers do not pyramid; an opposite confirmed signal reverses the strategy position.## Trade management- Initial stop: beyond the three-candle pattern and the outer Magic/fractal boundary- Primary target: the next Quarter Fractal- Confirmed exit: a candle-body structural failure at the protected QF, a midpoint rejection after price has advanced, the timeframe-specific maximum hold, or the final confirmed regular-session bar- Intraday positions are closed by the regular-session closeAll entry and structural-exit decisions use confirmed chart bars. Prior-day data uses only completed daily bars, and swing pivots appear only after right-side confirmation.For alerts, create one strategy alert that includes “Any alert() function call” and/or order fills. Dynamic signal messages identify direction, symbol, timeframe, and confirmed close.Use regular-session stock charts. Preset Emmanuel Full Fractals are included for supported symbols; other stocks use a confirmed-daily volatility estimate that snaps to the 1/2/4/8 fractal family. The Full Fractal and anchor can be overridden in Settings.This is a research and execution framework, not financial advice. Historical tests are sensitive to symbol, timeframe, spread, slippage, data window, and TradingView broker-emulator assumptions. Validate on unseen data and paper trade before risking capital.
