Entry rules

  • Short on an EQH sweep β€” buy-side stops grabbed, sellers step in.
  • Long on an EQL sweep β€” sell-side stops grabbed, buyers reload.
  • Long when close crosses above PDH AND SuperTrend state = +1.
  • Short when close crosses below PDL AND SuperTrend state = -1.

Exit rules

  • Opposite-side sweep closes the trade β€” that's the next liquidity event and the reversal leg is done.
  • 4% trailing stop, 3-bar cooldown.
  • Opposite-side breakout closes the trade β€” momentum has flipped.
  • 4% trailing stop, 3-bar cooldown.

Expected behavior

Advanced β€” sweep recognition is fast and noisy on short timeframes. Lots of small trades, occasional clean reversals when the sweep is the real local extreme. Pair with risk management; the entry triggers right into the wick.

Cleaner than a vanilla PDH/PDL bot β€” the SuperTrend filter cuts counter-trend breakouts that fizzle. Fewer trades but better quality; sits out range days where prior-range breaks fail.
