BTC 3-Minute Scalping StrategySupertrend Bias + MACD Squeeze (New York Session)This is a fully mechanical BTC scalping strategy designed to capture short momentum bursts that occur when volatility expands in the direction of the higher-timeframe trend.The strategy combines trend confirmation, volatility compression/expansion, and strict session filtering to reduce noise and improve consistency.How It WorksTrend BiasUses a 15-minute Supertrend to define market direction.Trades are taken only in the direction of the higher-timeframe trend.Counter-trend signals are ignored.Timing & EntryExecutes on the 3-minute chart.Waits for volatility compression using a LazyBear-style MACD Squeeze.Enters only when the squeeze releases and momentum turns positive.Entry occurs on candle close above the execution-timeframe Supertrend.Session FilterTrades only during the New York session (13:00–21:00 UTC).This avoids low-liquidity periods and reduces false breakouts.Risk & ExitsDynamic stop-loss placed at the execution-timeframe Supertrend.Risk is calculated using the actual filled entry price for accurate R-based exits.Primary profit target is 0.5R, optimized for scalping.Positions are exited immediately if:Price closes against SupertrendSupertrend flips directionMomentum (MACD histogram) turns negativeTrades are typically short-lived (1–3 candles), keeping exposure minimal.Key CharacteristicsNon-repainting logicFully rule-based (no discretion)High win-rate, low-RR scalping profileDesigned for BTC futures/perpetualsOptimized for New York session volatilityUsage NotesRun on BTC 3-minute chartsBest results during active NY hoursPerformance will vary by exchange, fees, and slippageThis strategy is intended for education and testing, not financial adviceSummaryThis strategy focuses on trading volatility expansion aligned with trend, using Supertrend for structure and MACD Squeeze for timing.
