🧭 System 1 – Trend Flip Strategy
System 1 is a simple yet powerful EMA-based strategy designed to capture early trend flips using volatility-adjusted signals. It works best on trending markets and aims to get you positioned early in the move while avoiding chop when the market is neutral.
📊 Core Logic
Uses a fast EMA and slow EMA to define market structure.
Applies an ATR-based margin to filter out noise and identify true bullish or bearish momentum shifts.
Generates a one-shot long entry when the market flips bullish.
Closes the position either on a bearish flip or optionally on neutral signals for a cleaner exit.
⚙️ Key Features
🟢 Trend confirmation with EMA + ATR margin
🪄 One-shot entries – only enters when flat and a clean flip occurs
🚪 Configurable exits – choose to exit on trend reversal or neutrality
🧭 Clear visual cues – color-coded EMA bands and entry/exit markers
📬 Custom alert messages – ready for webhook automation or bot integration
🧠 Why It May Be Useful
Great for momentum traders looking to enter early on trend shifts.
ATR filtering helps avoid false signals during choppy conditions.
Minimal parameters make it easy to optimize across multiple markets and timeframes.
Useful for systematic strategy builders as a core trend-following module.
Compatible with automation and alerts, making it suitable for both discretionary and systematic approaches.
📌 Tip:
For best results, test across multiple timeframes and assets. Consider pairing with volume or higher-timeframe confluence to improve selectivity.
