Companion::Divergent is a combined indicators strategy optimized for Bitcoin Markets and tested on Bitfinex.
Mainly, it is an Ichimoku based strategy.
Used indicators:
- Ichimoku (displayed on chart): trendline analysis;
- Double Hull MA (displayed on chart): trendline analysis;
- MACD (not displayed): confirmative/momentum detection;
- CCI (not displayed): confirmative/momentum detection;
- ATR: used toghether with Ichimoku to determine Stop Loss/Take Profit levels;
- VWMA: For implementing trailing stop orders based on volumes.
What the script does:
- determines trendlines combining mulitple indicators;
- automaticlally calculates Take profit and Stop Loss levels;
- permits automation generating Autoview signals;
- supports for margin trading. Spot trading will be added in the future.
It can be used on 1D or 1H timeframes but it can be adapted for other time frames tweaking the parameters. I used it a lot on Bitfinex on 1H timeframes. Please check parameters: if you will use the strategy on D or higher timeframes, the "Legacy Chikou analysis" option should be checked.
