This strategy combines moving averages and Hull curves to identify market trend direction and follow through on trends.
The main logic is:
McGinley Dynamic MA judges overall trend direction
Hull curve crossovers generate specific long/short signals
Optional confirmation indicators for signal verification
Risk management via stop loss and take profit principles
Close positions when Hull curve reverses
The strategy aims to mechanically systematize trend following, minimizing individual subjective influences.
MA judges overall direction, flexible confirmations
Hull clear long/short signals
Rules-based risk management minimizes errors
Parameter tuning and filters require optimization
Trend accuracy has uncertainties
Hull curve prone to lagging signals
This strategy seeks to systematize trend following operations to match market rhythm. But parameter optimization and indicator limitations warrant caution for stability.
