psar+ adx + cmf + rsi Strategy
Apr 13, 2021

The psar+ adx + cmf + rsi Strategy indicator is a comprehensive trading tool that combines trend following, momentum, volume, and volatility metrics to identify optimal long entry points. By synthesizing signals from the Parabolic SAR, Relative Strength Index (RSI), Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), and Average Directional Index (ADX), it aims to capture strength in bullish market regimes.
Usage
The strategy is designed primarily for long-only operations, focusing on high-probability setups where multiple technical factors align.
- Long Entry: A long position is triggered when the Parabolic SAR indicates an uptrend, the RSI is above a specific threshold (defaulting to 50), the CMF shows positive volume flow, and the ADX is trending above its own EMA, suggesting increasing trend strength.
- Exit Logic: The strategy closes the long position when the opposite conditions are met, such as the PSAR flipping to a downtrend, negative volume flow (CMF < 0), RSI dropping below the midline, or the ADX falling below its signal line.
The indicator is best used on timeframes where trend components like the PSAR and ADX can develop clear directional momentum.
Details
This strategy implements a multi-confluence approach:
- Parabolic SAR (PSAR): Acts as the primary trend filter, tracking price action closely to determine the directional bias.
- RSI Logic: Unlike standard overbought/oversold approaches, this strategy uses a higher RSI length to gauge the broader momentum relative to a midline.
- Chaikin Money Flow (CMF): Ensures that price moves are supported by actual volume accumulation, filtering out "thin" price moves.
- ADX with EMA: By applying an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to the ADX, the script determines if the current trend is strengthening or weakening, providing a sophisticated filter for trend intensity.
Settings
PSAR
- PSAR Start: The initial acceleration factor for the Parabolic SAR.
- PSAR Increment: The step size for the acceleration factor as the trend persists.
- PSAR Maximum: The cap for the acceleration factor.
RSI
- RSI Length: The period used for calculating the RSI.
- RSI Middle: The threshold level (default 49-50) used to determine bullish vs. bearish momentum.
CMF
- CMF Length: The lookback period for the Chaikin Money Flow calculation.
ADX
- ADX Smoothing: The period for the ADX smoothing calculation.
- DI Length: The period for the Directional Indicators.
- ADX EMA Length: The period for the EMA applied to the ADX, used as a dynamic threshold for trend strength.
