Double Vegas SuperTrend Enhanced - Strategy

The Double Vegas SuperTrend Enhanced - Strategy indicator utilizes a dual-layered trend-following approach that combines the Vegas Channel's volatility measurements with the SuperTrend's adaptive mechanics to identify high-probability market entries. By synchronizing two independent SuperTrend calculations, each adjusted by market-specific volatility, this tool aims to filter out noise and align trades with the broader market direction.

Usage

The strategy generates trade signals based on the confluence of two distinct SuperTrend levels. Both must align in the same direction to trigger an entry, ensuring that both short-term and medium-term momentum are synchronized.

• Long Entry: Triggered when both SuperTrend indicators signal a bullish trend.
• Short Entry: Triggered when both SuperTrend indicators signal a bearish trend.
• Exit Conditions: Positions can be closed when either SuperTrend reverses, upon reaching a specified hold period, or through configurable Take Profit and Stop Loss levels.
• Trade Direction: Users can filter signals to permit only Longs, only Shorts, or Both, allowing for adaptation to specific market regimes.

Details

The core of this strategy revolves around the Vegas Channel, calculated using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Standard Deviation (STD). The width of this channel serves as a dynamic input for the SuperTrend multiplier. Unlike standard SuperTrend indicators that use a fixed multiplier, this enhanced version scales the multiplier based on relative volatility.

The calculation logic follows:

1. Vegas Channel: Establishes volatility bands (SMA ± STD).
2. Volatility Adjustment: The SuperTrend multiplier is scaled by the ratio of the channel width to the moving average.
3. Trend Calculation: Standard ATR-based SuperTrend logic is applied using this adjusted multiplier.
4. Dual Confirmation: The strategy requires agreement between two sets of these calculations (using different window lengths and periods) before executing trades.

Settings

• Trade Direction: Select between "Long", "Short", or "Both" to define strategy orientation.
• ATR Periods: Sets the period for the Average True Range calculation for each SuperTrend (Default: 10 and 5).
• Vegas Window Lengths: Determines the lookback period for the volatility channel (Default: 100 and 200).
• SuperTrend Multiplier Base: The starting multiplier value before volatility adjustments are applied.
• Volatility Adjustment Factor: Controls how aggressively the multiplier reacts to changes in Vegas Channel width.
• Use Hold Days: Enables a minimum duration for holding positions regardless of trend signals.
• TPSL Condition: Select whether to apply Take Profit, Stop Loss, Both, or None.
• Take Profit / Stop Loss (%): Percentage-based triggers for automated risk management.
