Entry rules

  • Long-side ladder: close crosses down through any of the three Fib levels while Blackflag state = +1 (uptrend).
  • Short-side ladder mirrors above the Fib levels while state = -1.
  • First trigger wins; the trailing stop handles re-entry cadence.
  • RSI(14) below 35 AND
  • Close is above the 50-bar EMA β€” the dip is with the trend, not against it.

Exit rules

  • SuperTrend regime flips through zero in either direction β€” the framework routes the matching exit to the active position.
  • 4% trailing stop locks in the run; 2-bar cooldown after exit.
  • RSI(14) above 65, OR close drops below EMA(50).
  • Hard 2.5% stop; 5% take-profit.

Expected behavior

Calm during chop because no regime is established; bursts of activity when a clean trend prints and price wicks into the Fib zone. Pullback re-entries cluster around the trail line, so the equity curve looks like staircase steps inside each trend leg.

Cleaner equity curve than vanilla RSI mean reversion because the EMA filter cuts the worst counter-trend trades. Fewer setups, but each one comes with a stacked deck.
