Add v7-momentum indicator (experimental, disabled)
- Created momentum scalper indicator for catching rapid price acceleration - ROC-based detection: 2.0% threshold over 5 bars - Volume confirmation: 2.0x spike (checks last 3 bars) - ADX filter: Requires 12+ minimum directional movement - Anti-chop filter: Blocks signals in dead markets - Debug table: Real-time metric display for troubleshooting Status: Functional but signal quality inferior to v6 HalfTrend Decision: Shelved for now, continue with proven v6 strategy File: docs/guides/MOMENTUM_INDICATOR_V1.pine (239 lines) Lessons learned: - Momentum indicators inherently noisy (40-50% WR expected) - Signals either too early (false breakouts) or too late (miss move) - Volume spike timing issue: Often lags price move by 1-2 bars - Better to optimize proven strategy than add complexity Related: Position Manager duplicate update bug fixed (awaiting verification)

// ============================================================================

// STRATEGY NOTES
|

// ============================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
// INTENDED USE:
|
||||
// - Complement HalfTrend v6 (catches what trend-following misses)
|
||||
// - Use SMALLER position size (20-30% vs 100% for v6)
|
||||
// - Requires STRICTER quality score (70+ vs 60+ for v6)
|
||||
// - Best on 5-minute timeframe (momentum decays fast)
|
||||
// - ROC 1.5%+ threshold (captures moves before trend confirmation)
|
||||
// - Volume spike lookback (checks current + last 2 bars for confirmation)
|
||||
//
|
||||
// STRENGTHS:
|
||||
// - Catches sharp moves early (first 1-2%)
|
||||
// - High volume confirmation reduces false signals
|
||||
// - RSI directional confirmation (not extremes - allows catching moves earlier)
|
||||
// - Works in volatile markets (where v6 struggles)
|
||||
//
|
||||
// WEAKNESSES:
|
||||
// - More false signals than trend-following
|
||||
// - Requires tight stops (moves reverse quickly)
|
||||
// - Needs active monitoring (not set-and-forget)
|
||||
// - Performance varies by market regime
|
||||
//
|
||||
// QUALITY SCORE IMPACT:
|
||||
// + Volume spike (1.8x+ in last 3 bars): +15 points
|
||||
// + RSI directional (RSI <55 for longs, >45 for shorts): +10 points
|
||||
// + Strong ROC (>1.5%): +10 points
|
||||
// + Strong candle: +5 points
|
||||
// - Weak ADX (<12): -15 points
|
||||
// - Low ATR (<0.25%): -20 points
|
||||
// - Price at extreme (>90% or <10%): -15 points
|
||||
//
|
||||
// Expected score range: 55-85 (vs 60-95 for v6)
|
||||
// Recommended minimum: 70 (vs 60 for v6)

# Momentum Indicator v1 - Setup Guide
|
||||
|
||||
**Created:** November 12, 2025
|
||||
**Purpose:** Catch sharp price movements that trend-following indicators miss
|
||||
**Use Case:** Complement HalfTrend v6 for complete market coverage
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Indicator Does
|
||||
|
||||
**Example from today's -5% SOL drop:**
|
||||
- ❌ **v6 HalfTrend:** No signal (waiting for trend confirmation)
|
||||
- ✅ **v1 Momentum:** Would fire SHORT at -2% (catches first move)
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Difference:**
|
||||
- **v6 (Trend):** Enters after confirmation → safer, smaller gains
|
||||
- **v1 (Momentum):** Enters on acceleration → riskier, bigger gains
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Setup (15 minutes)
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Add Indicator to TradingView
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open TradingView → SOL/USDT 5-minute chart
|
||||
2. Click "Indicators" → "Pine Editor" at bottom
|
||||
3. Copy entire code from `MOMENTUM_INDICATOR_V1.pine`
|
||||
4. Click "Add to Chart"
|
||||
5. Click "Save" (name it "Momentum Scalper v1")
|
||||
|
||||
**You should see:**
|
||||
- Green triangles (up) = LONG signals
|
||||
- Red triangles (down) = SHORT signals
|
||||
- ROC oscillator at bottom (shows price acceleration)
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Configure Settings
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommended for 5-minute SOL:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
ROC Length: 5 candles
|
||||
ROC Threshold: 2.0% (catches -2% drops like today's)
|
||||
Volume Spike Multiplier: 1.8x (requires strong volume)
|
||||
RSI Length: 14
|
||||
RSI Overbought: 65 (sell when overheated)
|
||||
RSI Oversold: 35 (buy when oversold)
|
||||
Min ATR %: 0.25% (filter dead markets)
|
||||
Min ADX: 12 (some trend required)
|
||||
Strict Mode: ON (higher quality signals)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Create Alert for BOT
|
||||
|
||||
**In TradingView:**
|
||||
1. Right-click chart → "Add Alert"
|
||||
2. **Condition:** "Momentum Scalper v1" → "Any alert() function call"
|
||||
3. **Alert name:** "SOL Momentum v1"
|
||||
4. **Message:** (leave as default - script generates JSON)
|
||||
5. **Webhook URL:** Your n8n webhook (same as v6)
|
||||
6. **Frequency:** "Once Per Bar Close"
|
||||
7. Click "Create"
|
||||
|
||||
**The alert will send:**
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"action": "long" or "short",
|
||||
"symbol": "SOLUSDT",
|
||||
"timeframe": "5",
|
||||
"indicatorVersion": "v7-momentum",
|
||||
"atr": 0.52,
|
||||
"adx": 18.5,
|
||||
"rsi": 68.2,
|
||||
"volumeRatio": 2.3,
|
||||
"pricePosition": 65.4,
|
||||
"roc": -2.8,
|
||||
"currentPrice": 158.45
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Bot Configuration Changes
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 1: Test Mode (Recommended First)
|
||||
|
||||
**No code changes needed!** Just:
|
||||
1. Set up alert (above)
|
||||
2. Bot will treat it like v6 signal
|
||||
3. Track performance via `indicatorVersion: "v7-momentum"` in database
|
||||
|
||||
**Monitor for 20-30 trades, then compare:**
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Compare v6 vs v7-momentum performance
|
||||
SELECT
|
||||
"indicatorVersion",
|
||||
COUNT(*) as trades,
|
||||
ROUND(AVG("realizedPnL")::numeric, 2) as avg_pnl,
|
||||
ROUND(SUM("realizedPnL")::numeric, 2) as total_pnl,
|
||||
ROUND(100.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN "realizedPnL" > 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*)::numeric, 1) as win_rate
|
||||
FROM "Trade"
|
||||
WHERE "exitReason" IS NOT NULL
|
||||
AND "indicatorVersion" IN ('v6', 'v7-momentum')
|
||||
GROUP BY "indicatorVersion";
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 2: Production Mode (After Testing)
|
||||
|
||||
**Add position sizing for momentum:**
|
||||
|
||||
In `.env`:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Existing v6 settings
|
||||
SOLANA_POSITION_SIZE=100 # 100% for trend signals
|
||||
SOLANA_LEVERAGE=15
|
||||
|
||||
# NEW: Momentum-specific (smaller, riskier)
|
||||
MOMENTUM_POSITION_SIZE=30 # Only 30% for momentum
|
||||
MOMENTUM_LEVERAGE=10 # Lower leverage (faster moves)
|
||||
MOMENTUM_MIN_QUALITY=70 # Stricter (vs 60 for v6)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**This requires code changes in:**
|
||||
- `config/trading.ts` - Add momentum fields
|
||||
- `lib/trading/signal-quality.ts` - Detect indicator type, adjust scoring
|
||||
- `app/api/trading/execute/route.ts` - Use momentum sizing
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Expected Performance
|
||||
|
||||
### Backtest Estimates (based on similar strategies)
|
||||
|
||||
**v7 Momentum (5-minute SOL):**
|
||||
- Win Rate: 50-55% (lower than v6's 60%+)
|
||||
- Avg Win: +0.8% (larger than v6's +0.5%)
|
||||
- Avg Loss: -0.6% (similar to v6)
|
||||
- Trades/day: 3-5 (vs v6's 2-3)
|
||||
- Profit Factor: 1.3-1.5 (acceptable)
|
||||
|
||||
**Combined (v6 + v7):**
|
||||
- Win Rate: 58-62% (weighted average)
|
||||
- Total Trades: 5-8/day
|
||||
- Expected Monthly: +25-35% (vs v6 alone: +20-25%)
|
||||
|
||||
### Risk Profile
|
||||
|
||||
**v6 Trend (Current):**
|
||||
- Risk: LOW-MEDIUM
|
||||
- Reward: MEDIUM
|
||||
- Best in: Sustained trends
|
||||
- Worst in: Choppy/ranging

||||
**13:30** - SOL at $162, market stable
|
||||
- v6: No signal (waiting)
|
||||
- v7: No signal (no momentum yet)
|
||||
|
||||
**15:05** - Price drops $162 → $160 (-1.2%) in 2 candles
|
||||
- v6: Still no signal (trend not confirmed)
|
||||
- v7: **ROC = -2.3%** ✅ Threshold hit!
|
||||
|
||||
**15:05:00** - v7 Momentum Alert Fires
|
||||
```
|
||||
SHORT at $160.00
|
||||
ROC: -2.3% (strong)
|
||||
Volume: 2.1x average (spike)
|
||||
RSI: 68 → 52 (dropping fast)
|
||||
Quality Score: 73 ✅ PASS
|
||||
→ Bot opens 30% position SHORT
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**15:10** - Price continues to $156 (-2.5% from entry)

|
||||
→ Bot opens 100% position SHORT
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:**
|
||||
- v7 caught first -2.5% → +$3.06

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Too Many Signals?
|
||||
|
||||
Increase strictness:
|
||||
- ROC Threshold: 2.0% → 2.5%
|
||||
- Volume Multiplier: 1.8x → 2.0x
|
||||
- Min ADX: 12 → 15
|
||||
- Strict Mode: ON
|
||||
|
||||
### Missing Signals Like Today's?
|
||||
|
||||
Decrease strictness:
|
||||
- ROC Threshold: 2.0% → 1.5%
|
||||
- Volume Multiplier: 1.8x → 1.5x
|
||||
- RSI Overbought: 65 → 60
|
||||
- RSI Oversold: 35 → 40
|
||||
|
||||
### False Breakouts?
|
||||
|
||||
Add filters:
|
||||
- Increase Min ADX (15+)
|
||||
- Require price position 30-70% (avoid extremes)
|
||||
- Wait for 2 consecutive ROC candles
|
||||
- Increase volume requirement to 2.0x+

||||
## Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
### Week 1: Testing Phase
|
||||
1. ✅ Add indicator to TradingView
|
||||
2. ✅ Create alert with webhook
|
||||
3. ✅ Let bot trade with default settings
|
||||
4. ⏳ Collect 20-30 signals
|
||||
5. ⏳ Compare to v6 performance
|
||||
|
||||
### Week 2-3: Optimization
|
||||
1. Analyze which signals won/lost
|
||||
2. Adjust ROC threshold if needed
|
||||
3. Tune volume/RSI requirements
|
||||
4. Compare quality score ranges
|
||||
|
||||
### Week 4: Production
|
||||
1. If performance good (50%+ WR, 1.3+ PF), keep it
|
||||
2. Add momentum-specific position sizing
|
||||
3. Allocate 20-30% capital to momentum
|
||||
4. Monitor monthly performance
