Overview

This strategy is an adaptive trend following system based on the Multi-Timeframe Supertrend indicator. It integrates Supertrend signals from 15-minute, 5-minute, and 2-minute timeframes to build a comprehensive trend identification framework. The strategy employs a time filter to ensure operation only during the most active trading sessions and automatically closes positions at the end of the day to avoid overnight risk.

Strategy Principles

The core mechanism relies on trend consistency across multiple timeframes to confirm trading signals. Specifically:

  1. Calculates Supertrend lines using ATR period and multiplier factor for each timeframe.
  2. Triggers buy signals when bullish conditions align across all three timeframes (price above Supertrend lines).
  3. Initiates sell signals when price breaks below the 5-minute Supertrend line or reaches end of trading day.
  4. Controls trading hours through timezone settings and session filter (default 09:30-15:30).

Strategy Advantages

  1. Multi-dimensional trend confirmation enhances signal reliability and reduces false breakout risks.
  2. Adaptive Supertrend parameters enable strategy adjustment to different market volatility environments.
  3. Strict time management mechanism eliminates interference from inefficient trading periods.
  4. Clear visualization interface displays trend status across all timeframes.
  5. Flexible position management system supports percentage-based configuration.

Strategy Risks

  1. May generate excessive trading signals in ranging markets, increasing transaction costs.
  2. Multiple filtering conditions might cause missed profitable opportunities.
  3. Parameter optimization dependency requires adjustments for different market environments.
  4. High computational complexity may lead to execution efficiency issues.

Optimization Directions

  1. Introduce volatility adaptive mechanism to dynamically adjust Supertrend parameters.
  2. Add volume confirmation indicators to improve trend judgment accuracy.
  3. Develop intelligent time filtering algorithm to automatically identify optimal trading sessions.
  4. Optimize position management algorithm for more precise risk control.
  5. Add market environment classification module to implement differentiated strategies for various market characteristics.

Summary

The strategy constructs a robust trading system through multi-timeframe trend analysis and strict risk control mechanisms. While there is room for optimization, its core logic is solid and suitable for further development and live trading application. The modular design also provides a strong foundation for future extensions.
