█ Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System

What is Loxx's "Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System"?
The Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System is a trading system built on the philosophy of the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) algorithmic trading.

What is the NNFX algorithmic trading strategy?
The NNFX (No-Nonsense Forex) trading system is a comprehensive approach to Forex trading that is designed to simplify the process and remove the confusion and complexity that often surrounds trading. The system was developed by a Forex trader who goes by the pseudonym "VP" and has gained a significant following in the Forex community.

The NNFX trading system is based on a set of rules and guidelines that help traders make objective and informed decisions. These rules cover all aspects of trading, including market analysis, trade entry, stop loss placement, and trade management.

Here are the main components of the NNFX trading system:

1. Trading Philosophy: The NNFX trading system is based on the idea that successful trading requires a comprehensive understanding of the market, objective analysis, and strict risk management. The system aims to remove subjective elements from trading and focuses on objective rules and guidelines.

2. Technical Analysis: The NNFX trading system relies heavily on technical analysis and uses a range of indicators to identify high-probability trading opportunities. The system uses a combination of trend-following and mean-reverting strategies to identify trades.

3. Market Structure: The NNFX trading system emphasizes the importance of understanding the market structure, including price action, support and resistance levels, and market cycles. The system uses a range of tools to identify the market structure, including trend lines, channels, and moving averages.

4. Trade Entry: The NNFX trading system has strict rules for trade entry. The system uses a combination of technical indicators to identify high-probability trades, and traders must meet specific criteria to enter a trade.

5. Stop Loss Placement: The NNFX trading system places a significant emphasis on risk management and requires traders to place a stop loss order on every trade. The system uses a combination of technical analysis and market structure to determine the appropriate stop loss level.

6. Trade Management: The NNFX trading system has specific rules for managing open trades. The system aims to minimize risk and maximize profit by using a combination of trailing stops, take profit levels, and position sizing.

Overall, the NNFX trading system is designed to be a straightforward and easy-to-follow approach to Forex trading that can be applied by traders of all skill levels.

Core components of an NNFX algorithmic trading strategy
The NNFX algorithm is built on the principles of trend, momentum, and volatility. There are six core components in the NNFX trading algorithm:

1. Volatility - price volatility; e.g., Average True Range, True Range Double, Close-to-Close, etc.
2. Baseline - a moving average to identify price trend
3. Confirmation 1 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
4. Confirmation 2 - a technical indicator used to identify trends
5. Continuation - a technical indicator used to identify trends
6. Volatility/Volume - a technical indicator used to identify volatility/volume breakouts/breakdown
7. Exit - a technical indicator used to determine when a trend is exhausted

What is Volatility in the NNFX trading system?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, ATR (Average True Range) is typically used to measure the volatility of an asset. It is used as a part of the system to help determine the appropriate stop loss and take profit levels for a trade. ATR is calculated by taking the average of the true range values over a specified period.

True range is calculated as the maximum of the following values:

-Current high minus the current low
-Absolute value of the current high minus the previous close
-Absolute value of the current low minus the previous close

ATR is a dynamic indicator that changes with changes in volatility. As volatility increases, the value of ATR increases, and as volatility decreases, the value of ATR decreases. By using ATR in NNFX system, traders can adjust their stop loss and take profit levels according to the volatility of the asset being traded. This helps to ensure that the trade is given enough room to move, while also minimizing potential losses.

Other types of volatility include True Range Double (TRD), Close-to-Close, and Garman-Klass

What is a Baseline indicator?
The baseline is essentially a moving average, and is used to determine the overall direction of the market.

The baseline in the NNFX system is used to filter out trades that are not in line with the long-term trend of the market. The baseline is plotted on the chart along with other indicators, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR).

Trades are only taken when the price is in the same direction as the baseline. For example, if the baseline is sloping upwards, only long trades are taken, and if the baseline is sloping downwards, only short trades are taken. This approach helps to ensure that trades are in line with the overall trend of the market, and reduces the risk of entering trades that are likely to fail.

By using a baseline in the NNFX system, traders can have a clear reference point for determining the overall trend of the market, and can make more informed trading decisions. The baseline helps to filter out noise and false signals, and ensures that trades are taken in the direction of the long-term trend.

What is a Confirmation indicator?
Confirmation indicators are technical indicators that are used to confirm the signals generated by primary indicators. Primary indicators are the core indicators used in the NNFX system, such as the Average True Range (ATR), the Moving Average (MA), and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).

The purpose of the confirmation indicators is to reduce false signals and improve the accuracy of the trading system. They are designed to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators by providing additional information about the strength and direction of the trend.

Some examples of confirmation indicators that may be used in the NNFX system include the Bollinger Bands, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence), and the MACD Oscillator. These indicators can provide information about the volatility, momentum, and trend strength of the market, and can be used to confirm the signals generated by the primary indicators.

In the NNFX system, confirmation indicators are used in combination with primary indicators and other filters to create a trading system that is robust and reliable. By using multiple indicators to confirm trading signals, the system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of the trades.

What is a Continuation indicator?
In the NNFX (No Nonsense Forex) trading system, a continuation indicator is a technical indicator that is used to confirm a current trend and predict that the trend is likely to continue in the same direction. A continuation indicator is typically used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as a baseline indicator, to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.

What is a Volatility/Volume indicator?
Volume indicators, such as the On Balance Volume (OBV), the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), or the Volume Price Trend (VPT), are used to measure the amount of buying and selling activity in a market. They are based on the trading volume of the market, and can provide information about the strength of the trend. In the NNFX system, volume indicators are used to confirm trading signals generated by the Moving Average and the Relative Strength Index. Volatility indicators include Average Direction Index, Waddah Attar, and Volatility Ratio. In the NNFX trading system, volatility is a proxy for volume and vice versa.

By using volume indicators as confirmation tools, the NNFX trading system aims to reduce the risk of false signals and improve the overall profitability of trades. These indicators can provide additional information about the market that is not captured by the primary indicators, and can help traders to make more informed trading decisions. In addition, volume indicators can be used to identify potential changes in market trends and to confirm the strength of price movements.

What is an Exit indicator?
The exit indicator is used in conjunction with other indicators in the system, such as the Moving Average (MA), the Relative Strength Index (RSI), and the Average True Range (ATR), to provide a comprehensive trading strategy.

The exit indicator in the NNFX system can be any technical indicator that is deemed effective at identifying optimal exit points. Examples of exit indicators that are commonly used include the Parabolic SAR, the Average Directional Index (ADX), and the Chandelier Exit.

The purpose of the exit indicator is to identify when a trend is likely to reverse or when the market conditions have changed, signaling the need to exit a trade. By using an exit indicator, traders can manage their risk and prevent significant losses.

In the NNFX system, the exit indicator is used in conjunction with a stop loss and a take profit order to maximize profits and minimize losses. The stop loss order is used to limit the amount of loss that can be incurred if the trade goes against the trader, while the take profit order is used to lock in profits when the trade is moving in the trader's favor.

Overall, the use of an exit indicator in the NNFX trading system is an important component of a comprehensive trading strategy. It allows traders to manage their risk effectively and improve the profitability of their trades by exiting at the right time.

How does Loxx's GKD (Giga Kaleidoscope Modularized Trading System) implement the NNFX algorithm outlined above?
Loxx's GKD v1.0 system has five types of modules (indicators/strategies). These modules are:

1. GKD-BT - Backtesting module (Volatility, Number 1 in the NNFX algorithm)
2. GKD-B - Baseline module (Baseline and Volatility/Volume, Numbers 1 and 2 in the NNFX algorithm)
3. GKD-C - Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation module (Confirmation 1/2 and Continuation, Numbers 3, 4, and 5 in the NNFX algorithm)
4. GKD-V - Volatility/Volume module (Confirmation 1/2, Number 6 in the NNFX algorithm)
5. GKD-E - Exit module (Exit, Number 7 in the NNFX algorithm)

(additional module types will added in future releases)

Each module interacts with every module by passing data between modules. Data is passed between each module as described below:

GKD-B => GKD-V => GKD-C(1) => GKD-C(2) => GKD-C(Continuation) => GKD-E => GKD-BT

That is, the Baseline indicator passes its data to Volatility/Volume. The Volatility/Volume indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 1 indicator. The Confirmation 1 indicator passes its values to the Confirmation 2 indicator. The Confirmation 2 indicator passes its values to the Continuation indicator. The Continuation indicator passes its values to the Exit indicator, and finally, the Exit indicator passes its values to the Backtest strategy.

This chaining of indicators requires that each module conform to Loxx's GKD protocol, therefore allowing for the testing of every possible combination of technical indicators that make up the six components of the NNFX algorithm.

What does the application of the GKD trading system look like?
Example trading system:

• Backtest: Strategy with 1-3 take profits, trailing stop loss, multiple types of PnL volatility, and 2 backtesting styles
  
• Baseline: Hull Moving Average
  
• Volatility/Volume: Hurst Exponent
  
• Confirmation 1: PA-Adaptive T3 Loxxer as shown on the chart above
  
• Confirmation 2: Williams Percent Range
  
• Continuation: Fisher Transform
  
• Exit: Rex Oscillator
  

Each GKD indicator is denoted with a module identifier of either: GKD-BT, GKD-B, GKD-C, GKD-V, or GKD-E. This allows traders to understand to which module each indicator belongs and where each indicator fits into the GKD protocol chain.

█ GKD-C PA-Adaptive T3 Loxxer

What is the T3?
The T3 Moving Average (T3MA) is a technical analysis indicator that was developed by Tim Tillson. It is a trend-following indicator that aims to provide a smoother and more accurate representation of price trends than other moving average indicators.

The T3MA is a type of exponential moving average ( EMA ) that is calculated using a series of complex formulas. Unlike a simple or exponential moving average , which use fixed smoothing factors, the T3MA uses a variable smoothing factor that is based on the volatility of the underlying asset. This means that the T3MA is able to adapt to changing market conditions and provide more accurate signals.

The formula for calculating the T3MA is as follows:

T3 = a * EMA1 + (1 - a) * T3

Where:

-T3 is the current value of the T3MA

-EMA1 is the current value of the first EMA

-T3 is the previous value of the T3MA

-a is the smoothing factor, which is based on the volatility of the underlying asset and is calculated using the following formulas:

-c1 = -1 + exp (-sqrt(2) * pi / period)

-c2 = 2 * c1 * c1 + 2 * c1

-c3 = 1 - c1 - c2

-a = c1 * sqrt(period) * (close - T3) + c2 * T3 + c3 * EMA1

In simple terms, the T3MA is calculated by taking a weighted average of two different EMAs, with the weight given to each EMA depending on the volatility of the asset being analyzed. The T3MA is then smoothed using a second smoothing factor, which further reduces noise and improves the accuracy of the indicator.

The T3MA can be used in a variety of ways by traders and analysts. Some common applications include using the T3MA as a trend-following indicator, with buy signals generated when the price of an asset crosses above the T3MA and sell signals generated when the price crosses below. The T3MA can also be used in combination with other indicators and analytical techniques to confirm trading decisions and identify potential trend reversals.

Overall, the T3 Moving Average is a highly sophisticated and complex technical indicator that is designed to provide a more accurate and reliable representation of price trends. While it may be difficult for novice traders to understand and use effectively, experienced traders and analysts may find the T3MA to be a valuable tool in their trading toolbox.

What is the Phase Accumulation Cycle?
The Phase Accumulation Cycle Period by Ehlers is a concept developed by Dr. John Ehlers, an expert in the field of technical analysis and digital signal processing for financial markets. The Phase Accumulation Cycle Period is a technique used to estimate the dominant cycle period in a financial time series, such as stock prices or market indices. It is based on the premise that financial markets are cyclical in nature, and understanding the underlying cycles can help traders and investors make better-informed decisions.

The Phase Accumulation method works by accumulating the phase of the input data over a specific number of bars or periods, and then measuring the difference between the current and prior phase. This difference represents the change in phase over the specified accumulation period. The method uses a combination of digital signal processing techniques, such as complex demodulation and Hilbert Transform, to determine the phase and amplitude of the underlying cycles.

One of the key benefits of the Phase Accumulation Cycle Period is that it is less sensitive to noise and provides a more stable estimation of the cycle period when compared to other methods, such as the traditional spectral analysis techniques. This makes it particularly useful for analyzing noisy financial time series data.

Dr. Ehlers has published several papers and books on the subject, and his work is widely respected in the field of technical analysis. If you are interested in learning more about the Phase Accumulation Cycle Period and other techniques developed by Dr. Ehlers, you may want to explore his publications, such as "Rocket Science for Traders" and "Cycle Analytics for Traders."

My apologies for not providing the details and formulas in my previous response. Here's a more detailed explanation of the Phase Accumulation Cycle Period by Ehlers, including the relevant formulas.

The Phase Accumulation Cycle Period calculation involves the following steps:

1. Apply the Hilbert Transform to the input data: The Hilbert Transform is a mathematical technique used to calculate the instantaneous phase and amplitude of a signal. The formula for the Hilbert Transform (HT) is:
HT(x) = (1/π) * ∫[x(τ) / (t - τ)] dτ
Where x(τ) is the input data, t is the time index, and the integral is taken over the entire data length.

2. Calculate the instantaneous phase: The instantaneous phase (φ) is calculated as the arctangent of the ratio between the Hilbert Transform output and the input data.
φ(t) = arctan(HT(x(t)) / x(t))

3. Calculate the phase difference: The phase difference (Δφ) is the difference between the instantaneous phase at the current bar and the previous bar.
Δφ(t) = φ(t) - φ(t-1)

4. Accumulate the phase difference: The accumulated phase difference is the sum of the phase differences over a specified accumulation period (N).
ΣΔφ(t) = Σ[Δφ(t - k)] for k = 0 to N-1

5. Calculate the average phase change: The average phase change (Δφ_avg) is the accumulated phase difference divided by the accumulation period (N).
Δφ_avg = ΣΔφ(t) / N

6. Estimate the cycle period: The estimated cycle period (P) is calculated using the following formula:
P = (2π) / Δφ_avg

The Phase Accumulation Cycle Period by Ehlers is the estimated cycle period (P) derived from the above calculations. The technique is designed to provide a more accurate and stable estimation of the dominant cycle period in a financial time series, which can be useful for market analysis, trading, and investing.

What is the Loxxer indicator?
The Loxxer Indicator is a technical analysis tool developed by Loxx. It is an oscillator that measures the demand of an asset, helping traders and investors identify potential buying and selling opportunities. The Loxxer Indicator compares the current maximum and minimum prices with those of the previous period, aiming to assess the directional pressure and the possible trend exhaustion points.

The Loxxer Indicator ranges between 0 and 1, with values above 0.7 generally considered overbought and values below 0.3 considered oversold. These overbought and oversold levels can provide potential entry or exit signals for traders.

Here's how the Loxxer Indicator is calculated:

1. Calculate LoxxMax: If the current high minus the previous high is greater than zero, LoxxMax equals the difference. If the result is less than or equal to zero, LoxxMax equals zero.
LoxxMax = max(current high - previous high, 0)

2. Calculate LoxxMin: If the previous low minus the current low is greater than zero, LoxxMin equals the difference. If the result is less than or equal to zero, LoxxMin equals zero.
LoxxMin = max(previous low - current low, 0)

3. Calculate the moving average of LoxxMax for the specified period (N):
LoxxMaxAvg = Simple Moving Average of LoxxMax over N periods

4. Calculate the moving average of LoxxMin for the specified period (N):
LoxxMinAvg = Simple Moving Average of LoxxMin over N periods

5. Calculate the Loxxer Indicator:
Loxxer = LoxxMaxAvg / (LoxxMaxAvg + LoxxMinAvg)

The Loxxer Indicator can be used in various ways, such as generating trading signals, identifying divergence, or confirming trends. Keep in mind that, like any other technical analysis tool, the Loxxer Indicator should be used in conjunction with other tools and techniques to increase the reliability of trading signals.

What is the PA-Adaptive T3 Loxxer?
This indicator computes the Phase Accumulation Cycle Period (dominant cycle period) and subsequently incorporates it into the Loxxer algorithm. Here, the Loxxer algorithm is equipped with T3 filtering. The T3 filter utilizes the Phase Accumulation dominant cycle period as its input for the period. This comprehensive computation generates an exceptionally smooth and rapid indicator.

For the "Continuation" type, both initial and continuation signals will be displayed. In both cases, if multiple signal types are present (e.g., middle cross, signal cross), these signals can be controlled using the "Signal Type" option.

-Implemented code optimizations to enhance the rendering speed of signals.

-Streamlined the export process by generating only a single value for export to other indicators or backtests. This exported value is named "Input into NEW GKD-BT Backtest."
