Adaptive Log Trend Zones is a trend-following overlay built to identify high-probability breakout retests in strong market conditions. It combines logarithmic regression, volatility-adaptive behavior, and ATR-based trend zones to help traders stay aligned with dominant momentum while avoiding chop.
🔹 Core Features
Logarithmic Regression Midline
- Uses linear regression on log price to better handle exponential market moves
- Produces smoother, more realistic trend structure on higher timeframes
Volatility-Adaptive Lookback
- Automatically expands or contracts the regression length based on ATR volatility
- Reacts faster in high volatility, smoother in consolidation
Dynamic Trend Zones
- Upper and lower bands are ATR-adjusted and trend-colored
- Optional future projection for visual trend guidance
Breakout → Retest Signal Logic
- Detects clean breakouts beyond the trend zone
- Waits for a controlled pullback (retest) before signaling
- Signals only trigger when trend strength is confirmed
Trend Quality Filter
- Internal regime detection filters out low-quality, sideways conditions
- Uses slope strength and volatility compression to validate entries
🔹 Signals
- BUY: Bullish breakout followed by a valid retest in a trending regime
- SELL: Bearish breakout followed by a valid retest in a trending regime
Signals are designed for trend continuation, not mean reversion.
🔹 Best Use Cases
- Crypto, Forex, and Index markets
- Higher timeframes (15m+ recommended)
- Trend continuation and pullback strategies
