Overview

This strategy uses an adaptive moving average and trendline breakouts for entries, and RSI for exits. It aims to enter trends when conditions are met, take profit at overbought levels, and limit to one trade per month.

Strategy Logic

  1. Calculates 99-period adaptive MA to determine overall trend.

  2. Calculates 14-period local highs for upper trendline resistance.

  3. Goes long when close breaks above trendline and no order this month.

  4. Calculates 14-period RSI and exits at RSI over 70 (overbought).

  5. Tracks last entry month to ensure one trade per month.

Advantage Analysis

  1. Adaptive MA dynamically tracks trend changes.

  2. Trendline breakouts improve entry precision.

  3. RSI effectively judges overbought/oversold levels for risk control.

  4. One trade per month reduces frequency and fees.

  5. Simple and clear logic, easy to understand and execute.

Risk Analysis

  1. Improper parameters may cause missed entries.

  2. Fixed exit indicators cannot adapt timely to markets.

  3. Possibility of drawdowns.

  4. No risk control for long holding periods.

  5. Too many filters may prevent entries.

Optimization Directions

  1. Test different parameters for optimum settings.

  2. Add filters to improve strategy robustness.

  3. Develop dynamic and trailing stop strategies.

  4. Optimize entry logic to identify stronger breakouts.

  5. Test suitable instruments and timeframes.

  6. Add trend filter to avoid false breakouts.

Summary

This strategy integrates trend analysis and oscillators for steady trend following effect. Further optimizations on parameters, dynamic exits etc. can make it a reliable quant system. Overall it has good operability and is worth improving and verifying.

//The provided script is an indicator for TradingView written in Pine Script version 5. The indicator is used to determine entry and exit points for a trading strategy. Here's a detailed breakdown of what the script does:

// Strategy Definition:

// Bannos Strategy is the full name, with a short title Bannos.
// The overlay=true option indicates that the strategy will be overlayed on the price chart.
// Tracking Entry Month:

// A variable lastEntryMonth is set up to track the month of the last entry.
// currentMonth identifies the current month.
// Trend Regularity Adaptive Moving Average (TRAMA):

// It takes an input of length 99 as default.
// It uses adaptive calculations to track trend changes.
// Trendlines with Breaks:

// Identifies local peaks over a given period (in this case, 14) and calculates a slope based on these peaks.
// Relative Strength Index (RSI):

// Uses a length of 14 (default) to calculate the RSI.
// RSI is an oscillation indicator that indicates overbought or oversold conditions.
// Strategy Logic for Long Entry:

// A long position is opened if:
// The close price is above the TRAMA.
// There's a crossover of the close price and the upper trendline.
// The position is taken only once per month.
// Strategy Logic for Long Exit:

// The long position is closed if the RSI exceeds 70, indicating an overbought condition.
// Plotting:

// The TRAMA is plotted in red on the chart.
// A horizontal line is also drawn at 70 to indicate the RSI's overbought zone.
// In summary, this strategy aims to enter a long position when certain trend and crossover conditions are met, and close the position when the market is considered overbought as per the RSI. Additionally, it ensures entries only occur once a month.
