[CodaPro] Multi-Timeframe RSI Dashboard
Multi-Timeframe RSI Dashboard
This indicator displays RSI (Relative Strength Index) values from five different timeframes simultaneously in a clean dashboard format, helping traders identify momentum alignment across multiple time periods.
═══════════════════════════════════════
FEATURES
✓ Displays RSI for 5 customizable timeframes
✓ Color-coded status indicators (Oversold/Neutral/Overbought)
✓ Clean table display positioned in chart corner
✓ Fully customizable RSI length and threshold levels
✓ Works on any instrument and timeframe
✓ Real-time updates as price moves
✓ Smart BUY/SELL signals with cooldown system
✓ Non-repainting - signals never disappear after appearing
═══════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates the standard RSI formula for each selected timeframe and displays the results in both a graph and organized table. Default timeframes are:
- 5-minute
- 15-minute
- 1-hour
- 4-hour (optional - hidden by default)
- Daily (optional - hidden by default)
Visual Display:
- Graph shows all RSI lines in subtle, transparent colors
- Lines don't overpower your price chart
- Dashboard table shows exact values and status
Color Coding:
- GREEN = RSI below 32 (traditionally considered oversold)
- YELLOW = RSI between 32-64 (neutral zone)
- RED = RSI above 64 (traditionally considered overbought)
All timeframes and thresholds are fully adjustable in the indicator settings.
═══════════════════════════════════════
SIGNAL LOGIC
BUY Signal:
- Triggers when ALL 3 primary timeframes drop below the buy level (default: 32)
- Arrow appears near the RSI lines for easy identification
- 120-minute cooldown prevents signal spam
SELL Signal:
- Triggers when ALL 3 primary timeframes rise above the sell level (default: 64)
- Arrow appears near the RSI lines for easy identification
- 120-minute cooldown prevents signal spam
The cooldown system ensures you only see HIGH-CONVICTION signals, not every minor fluctuation.
═══════════════════════════════════════
SCREENSHOT FEATURES VISIBLE
- Multi-timeframe RSI lines (5min, 15min, 1H) in subtle colors
- Smart BUY/SELL signals with cooldown system
- Real-time dashboard showing current RSI values
- Clean, professional design that doesn't clutter your chart
═══════════════════════════════════════
DEFAULT SETTINGS

- Sell Signal Level: 64 (all 3 timeframes must cross above)
- Signal Cooldown: 24 bars (120 minutes on 5-min chart)
- Active Timeframes: 5min, 15min, 1H (4H and Daily can be enabled)
- RSI Length: 14 periods (standard)
═══════════════════════════════════════
CUSTOMIZABLE SETTINGS
- RSI Length (default: 14)
- Oversold Level (default: 32)
- Overbought Level (default: 64)
- Buy Signal Level (default: 32)
- Sell Signal Level (default: 64)
- Signal Cooldown in bars (default: 24)
- Five timeframe selections (fully customizable)
- Toggle visibility for each timeframe
- Toggle dashboard table on/off
- Toggle arrows on/off
═══════════════════════════════════════
HOW TO USE
1. Add the indicator to your chart
2. Customize timeframes in settings (optional)
3. Adjust RSI length and threshold levels (optional)
4. Monitor the dashboard for multi-timeframe alignment
INTERPRETATION:
When multiple timeframes show the same condition (all oversold or all overbought), it can indicate stronger momentum in that direction. For example:
- Multiple timeframes showing oversold may suggest a potential bounce
- Multiple timeframes showing overbought may suggest potential weakness
However, RSI alone should not be used as a standalone signal. Always combine with:
- Price action analysis
- Support/resistance levels
- Trend analysis
- Volume confirmation
- Other technical indicators
═══════════════════════════════════════
EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND
RSI (Relative Strength Index) was developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. and introduced in his 1978 book "New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems." It measures the magnitude of recent price changes to evaluate overbought or oversold conditions.
The RSI oscillates between 0 and 100, with readings:
- Below 30 traditionally considered oversold
- Above 70 traditionally considered overbought
- Around 50 indicating neutral momentum
Multi-timeframe analysis helps traders understand whether momentum conditions are aligned across different time horizons, potentially providing more robust signals than single-timeframe analysis alone.
═══════════════════════════════════════
NON-REPAINTING GUARANTEE
This indicator uses confirmed bar data to prevent repainting:
- All RSI values are calculated from previous bar's close
- Signals only fire when the bar closes (not mid-bar)
- What you see in backtest = what you get in live trading
- No signals will disappear after they appear
This is critical for reliable trading signals and accurate backtesting.
═══════════════════════════════════════
VISUAL DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
The indicator is designed with a "less is more" approach:
- Transparent RSI lines (60% opacity) keep price candles as the focal point
- Thin lines reduce visual clutter
- Arrows positioned near RSI levels (not floating randomly)
- Background flashes provide extra visual confirmation
- Dashboard table is compact and non-intrusive
The goal is to provide powerful multi-timeframe analysis without overwhelming your chart.
═══════════════════════════════════════
TECHNICAL NOTES
- Uses standard request.security() calls for multi-timeframe data
- Non-repainting implementation with proper lookahead handling
- Minimal performance impact
- Compatible with all instruments and timeframes
- Written in Pine Script v6

Net Body Accumulation Visualizer"This indicator calculates the sum of green candles and red candles over a specific lookback period and displays the resulting 'Net Body.'
How to Use:
Trend Strength: When the candle is below the 0-line, it indicates strong selling pressure; when it is above the 0-line, it shows strong buying pressure.
MA Trading: It enables trading strategies based on Moving Average (SMA) lines.
Trend Identification: It makes it easy to identify whether the overall trend is bullish or bearish."
Trading Cockpit ChecklistThis is an indicator based on the confirmations our mentor, Mr. Casino has laid out in his books.
You can select whether each phenomenon has occurred as you find it and it will change the visual to a checkmark instead of an X.
This can help you stay more disciplined and mechanical about your entries.
If someone wants to make a new checklist indicator that includes their own confirmations, I ave made it open source to do so, just replace the questions in it with your own confirmations for trading confluence.
Cheers.

Minervini VCP ScannerThis PineScript Scanner analyzes any watchlist for Minervini's VCP setups. It uses the new Pine Screen editor.
The settings are found under the Minervini VCP Scanner drop down box in the upper left. Note that the scanner requires a sort field be set, so the one the far right called "Set this = 1" Must be set to equal 1 before it will work at all.
The rest is pretty self explanatory and you can sort the columns' to examine VOL contraction, which of the bases are drying up in VOL and also see which of the tickers is closing in the upper half of the VCP channel.
Enjoy and give it a thumbs up!

Big Randy's ORB Strategy w/ Key LevelsBig Randy’s ORB Strategy w/ Key Levels plots a clean, trade-ready set of intraday levels built around the New York Opening Range, plus Asia & London session highs/lows pulled from a futures proxy so you can use the same levels on SPX/SPY (or other correlated charts) without switching symbols.
What it shows
NY ORB (08:00–08:15 ET)
Draws the High, Low, and Midpoint (dotted) of the first 15-minute candle starting at your chosen NY start time (default 8:00 ET).
Asia & London Session High/Low (from Futures)
Tracks and plots Asia High/Low and London High/Low using a futures proxy (ES or NQ) and maps those prices onto your current chart via smart scaling.
Easy toggles
Futures Proxy: quickly switch between ES and NQ as the session reference source.
Scaling Reference:
Auto = automatically scales the futures levels to match your current chart (works great for ES/NQ vs SPX/SPY).
Force SPX = treats chart like SPX-style 1x pricing.
Force SPY = uses SPY-style ~0.1x pricing (SPX/10 approximation).
Use CME Continuous Symbols: option to use continuous futures tickers (ES1!/NQ1!) for consistent session tracking.
Styling
Solid lines for NY ORB, dashed lines for Asia/London, dotted for NY Mid.
Fully customizable colors + line width.
Notes
Designed for America/New_York session timing.
Levels extend during your selected “extend lines” window.
This indicator plots levels only (not a full entry/exit backtest system) so you can combine it with your own confirmation and risk rules.
Daily & Weekly Levels (Sticky + Individual Alerts)🚀 Sticky Levels: PDH/PDL & Weekly High/Low
💡 Overview
This lightweight Pine Script v6 utility is designed for high-frequency traders and scalpers who require key Daily and Weekly levels without cluttering their price action. Optimized for speed and clarity, it ensures your most important S/R zones are always exactly where you need them.
🌟 Key Features
📌 Sticky Right Alignment – Labels are anchored to the right price scale using a customizable offset. They stay perfectly visible on mobile devices (Android/iOS) regardless of zoom level or scrolling.
⚡ Performance Optimized – Specifically built for low timeframes (15s, 1m, 5m). By using barstate.islast and tuple-based request.security calls, it ensures zero lag and minimal resource usage.
📅 Daily Levels – Instantly plot Previous Day High (PDH) and Previous Day Low (PDL).
🗓️ Weekly Levels – Monitor Previous Week High (PWH), Previous Week Low (PWL), and Current Weekly Open (WO).
🔔 Individual Alert Management – Granular control over notifications. You can manually enable/disable alerts for each specific level to avoid "alert fatigue."
💎 Clean Visuals – Uses elegant dashed lines and non-intrusive labels with an optional price display for pinpoint accuracy.
🛠️ How to Customize Your Setup
1. Visibility & Visuals
Toggle Levels: Turn each level on or off independently in the settings.
Label Offset: Adjust the "3cm" margin by changing the bar offset to fit your screen perfectly.
Price Toggle: Show or hide exact price values next to the labels.
2. Individual Alert Toggles In the settings menu, you will find a 🔔 icon next to each level. You can manually choose which specific levels should trigger a notification:

Create Alert: Press Alt+A, set Condition to this indicator, and select "Any alert() function call".
Trade: Receive precise, non-spammy notifications directly to your phone or desktop.
Target Ladder Elite - Median + ATR Active TargetsTarget Ladder Elite — Median + ATR Active Targets is a lightweight price-target framework that uses a median moving average as a central anchor and ATR volatility bands to define realistic upper and lower target zones.
Instead of predicting direction, this tool is designed to provide structured, volatility-aware reference levels that traders can use for planning, risk framing, and journaling.
The script displays:
A central “median” line (EMA by default)
Optional upper/lower ATR bands
A single “Active Target” label that updates on the last bar
“HIT” markers when price reaches the selected target band under simple context conditions
What it does
Median Anchor (Trend/Centerline)
A short moving average is used as the median reference line. This can help traders see whether price is trading above or below its current median.
ATR Target Bands (Volatility Range)
ATR (Average True Range) is used to measure volatility, and the script plots:
Upper Band = Median + (ATR × Multiplier)
Lower Band = Median − (ATR × Multiplier)
These bands represent a volatility-based “reach” range rather than a guaranteed destination.
Active Target (Last Bar Only)
The script highlights one band as the “Active Target”:
Auto mode:
If price is above the median → upper band becomes active
If price is below the median → lower band becomes active
Or the user can force Upper or Lower.
HIT Detection (Touch Confirmation)
A “HIT” label prints when price reaches the band under a simple context filter:
Upper HIT: price touches/exceeds the upper band while closing above the median
Lower HIT: price touches/exceeds the lower band while closing below the median
This is meant as a visual confirmation that a volatility target was reached, not a trading signal by itself.
How it works (calculation detail)
Median = EMA(Source, Median Length)
ATR = ATR(ATR Length)
Upper = Median + ATR × Multiplier
Lower = Median − ATR × Multiplier
The “Active Target” is selected based on your Active Target Side setting, then displayed as a label on the most recent bar.
How to use it
Common use cases:
Planning target zones: Use upper/lower bands as potential volatility reach levels for the current market regime.
Risk framing: Combine the median and bands with your preferred stop/structure rules to evaluate whether a move is extended or compressed.
Trend context: In Auto mode, the active band is chosen based on where price is trading relative to the median.
Journaling: HIT labels can help record when price reaches a volatility-defined objective.
Suggested starting settings:
Median Length: 4
ATR Length: 4
ATR Multiplier: .05–2.0 (adjust based on timeframe and asset volatility)
Notes & limitations
The bands are volatility references, not predictions.
The “Active Target” selection in Auto mode is a simple median-based context rule.

ANTS MVP Indicator David Ryan's Institutional Accumulation🚀 ANTS MVP Indicator – David Ryan's Legendary Accumulation Signal
Discover stocks under heavy **institutional buying** before they explode — just like 3-time U.S. Investing Champion David Ryan used to crush the markets!
This is a faithful, open-source recreation of the famous **ANTS (Momentum-Volume-Price)** pattern popularized by David Ryan (protégé of William O'Neil / IBD / CAN SLIM fame). It scans for the classic 15-day "MVP" setup that often appears in early stages of massive winners.
Key Features:
• Colored "Ants" diamonds show signal strength:
- Gray: Momentum only (12+ up days in 15)
- Yellow: Momentum + Volume surge (≥20% avg volume increase)
- Blue: Momentum + Price gain (≥20% rise)
- Green: FULL MVP (all three!) – the strongest institutional demand signal!
• Toggle to show ONLY green ants for cleaner charts
• Position ants above or below bars
• Built-in alert for NEW green ants (copy the alert condition or use alert() triggers)
• Optional background highlight + label on the last bar for quick spotting
Why ANTS Works:
- Flags consistent up-days + volume explosion + solid price advance
- Often clusters before major breakouts (cup-with-handle, flat bases, etc.)
- Used by pros to find leaders early (think NVDA, TSLA, CELH runs)
- Great for daily charts + combining with RS Rating, earnings growth, and market uptrends
How to Use:
1. Add to daily stock charts
2. Watch for GREEN ants (full MVP) in bases or near pivots
3. Wait for volume breakout above resistance for entry
4. Set alerts for "GREEN ANTS MVP detected!" to catch them live
Fully open code – feel free to tweak thresholds (lookback, % gains, etc.)!
Inspired by public descriptions from IBD, Deepvue, and Ryan's teachings.

#ANTS #DavidRyan #MVPPattern #InstitutionalAccumulation #CANSLIM #TradingView #MomentumTrading #StockScanner The time it takes for a stock to rise significantly after a green ANTS (full MVP) signal appears varies widely — there is no fixed or guaranteed timeframe. The ANTS indicator (developed by David Ryan) flags strong institutional accumulation over a rolling ~3-week (15-day) period, but the actual price breakout or major advance often comes later, after further consolidation or a proper setup.
Typical Timings from Real-World Usage and Examples
Short-term (days to weeks): Sometimes the green ants appear during or right at the start of a breakout — price can rise 10–30%+ in the following 1–4 weeks if momentum continues and volume supports it (e.g., Rocket Lab (RKLB) showed ANTS strength ahead of a powerful breakout in examples from IBD).
Medium-term (weeks to months): More commonly, green ants signal early accumulation while the stock is still building or tightening in a base (e.g., cup-with-handle, flat base, high tight flag, or pullback to 10/21 EMA). The big move (often 50–200%+) happens after the stock forms a proper buy point (pivot breakout on high volume), which can take 2–12 weeks after the first green ants.
Longer-term leaders: In historical CAN SLIM winners, ANTS often appeared during the stealth accumulation phase (before the stock became obvious), with the major multi-month/year run starting 1–6 months later once the market confirmed an uptrend and the stock broke out.
Key points from David Ryan/IBD sources:
ANTS is a demand confirmation tool, not a precise timing signal.
Many stocks with green ants are extended when the signal fires — wait for a pullback/consolidation before expecting the next leg up.
In strong bull markets, clusters of green ants over several bars increase the odds of an imminent or near-term move.
If no breakout follows within ~1–3 months (and market weakens), the signal may fizzle — cut losses or move on.
Bottom line: Expect 0–3 months for meaningful upside in good setups, but always wait for a classic buy point (breakout above resistance on volume) rather than buying the ants alone. Backtest examples (e.g., via TradingView replay on past leaders like NVDA, TSLA, or CELH during their runs) to see the lag in action.
QTechLabs Machine Learning Logistic Regression Indicator [Lite]QTechLabs Machine Learning Logistic Regression Indicator
Ver5.1 1st January 2026
Author: QTechLabs
Description
A lightweight logistic-regression-based signal indicator (Q# ML Logistic Regression Indicator ) for TradingView. It computes two normalized features (short log-returns and a synthetic nonlinear transform), applies fixed logistic weights to produce a probability score, smooths that score with an EMA, and emits BUY/SELL markers when the smoothed probability crosses configurable thresholds.
Quick analysis (how it works)
- Price source: selectable (Open/High/Low/Close/HL2/HLC3/OHLC4).
- Features:
- ret = log(ds / ds ) — short log-return over ret_lookback bars.
- synthetic = log(abs(ds^2 - 1) + 0.5) — a nonlinear “synthetic” feature.
- Both features normalized over a 20‑bar window to range ~0–1.
- Fixed logistic regression weights: w0 = -2.0 (bias), w1 = 2.0 (ret), w2 = 1.0 (synthetic).
- Probability = sigmoid(w0 + w1*norm_ret + w2*norm_synthetic).
- Smoothed probability = EMA(prob, smooth_len).
- Signals:
- BUY when sprob > threshold.
- SELL when sprob < (1 - threshold).
- Visual buy/sell shapes plotted and alert conditions provided.
- Defaults: threshold = 0.6, ret_lookback = 3, smooth_len = 3.
User instructions
1. Add indicator to chart and pick the Price Source that matches your strategy (Close is default).
2. Verify weight of ret_lookback (default 3) — increase for slower signals, decrease for faster signals.
3. Threshold: default 0.6 — higher = fewer signals (more confidence), lower = more signals. Recommended range 0.55–0.75.
4. Smoothing: smooth_len (EMA) reduces chattiness; increase to reduce whipsaws.
5. Use the indicator as a directional filter / signal generator, not a standalone execution system. Combine with trend confirmation (e.g., higher-timeframe MA) and risk management.
6. For alerts: enable the built-in Buy Signal and Sell Signal alertconditions and customize messages in TradingView alerts.
7. Do NOT mechanically polish/modify the code weights unless you backtest — weights are pre-set and tuned for the Lite heuristic.
Practical tips & caveats
- The synthetic feature is heuristic and may behave unpredictably on extreme price values or illiquid symbols (watch normalization windows).
- Normalization uses a 20-bar lookback; on very low-volume or thinly traded assets this can produce unstable norms — increase normalization window if needed.
- This is a simple model: expect false signals in choppy ranges. Always backtest on your instrument and timeframe.
- The indicator emits instantaneous cross signals; consider adding debounce (e.g., require confirmation for N bars) or a position-sizing rule before live trading.
- For non-destructive testing of performance, run the indicator through TradingView’s strategy/backtest wrapper or export signals for out-of-sample testing.
Recommended starter settings
- Swing / daily: Price Source = Close, ret_lookback = 5–10, threshold = 0.62–0.68, smooth_len = 5–10.
- Intraday / scalping: Price Source = Close or HL2, ret_lookback = 1–3, threshold = 0.55–0.62, smooth_len = 2–4.
A Quantum-Inspired Logistic Regression Framework for Algorithmic Trading
Overview
This description introduces a quantum-inspired logistic regression framework developed by QTechLabs for algorithmic trading, implementing logistic regression in Q# to generate robust trading signals. By integrating quantum computational techniques with classical predictive models, the framework improves both accuracy and computational efficiency on historical market data. Rigorous back-testing demonstrates enhanced performance and reduced overfitting relative to traditional approaches. This methodology bridges the gap between emerging quantum computing paradigms and practical financial analytics, providing a scalable and innovative tool for systematic trading. Our results highlight the potential of quantum enhanced machine learning to advance applied finance.
Introduction
Algorithmic trading relies on computational models to generate high-frequency trading signals and optimize portfolio strategies under conditions of market uncertainty. Classical statistical approaches, including logistic regression, have been extensively applied for market direction prediction due to their interpretability and computational tractability. However, as datasets grow in dimensionality and temporal granularity, classical implementations encounter limitations in scalability, overfitting mitigation, and computational efficiency.
Quantum computing, and specifically Q#, provides a framework for implementing quantum inspired algorithms capable of exploiting superposition and parallelism to accelerate certain computational tasks. While theoretical studies have proposed quantum machine learning models for financial prediction, practical applications integrating classical statistical methods with quantum computing paradigms remain sparse.
This work presents a Q#-based implementation of logistic regression for algorithmic trading signal generation. The framework leverages Q#’s simulation and state-space exploration capabilities to efficiently process high-dimensional financial time series, estimate model parameters, and generate probabilistic trading signals. Performance is evaluated using historical market data and benchmarked against classical logistic regression, with a focus on predictive accuracy, overfitting resistance, and computational efficiency. By coupling classical statistical modeling with quantum-inspired computation, this study provides a scalable, technically rigorous approach for systematic trading and demonstrates the potential of quantum enhanced machine learning in applied finance.

Discussion
The experimental results demonstrate that the Q#-enhanced logistic regression framework provides measurable improvements in both predictive performance and trading signal quality compared to classical logistic regression. The increase in accuracy (72.4% vs. 68.1%) and F1 score (71.9% vs. 66.8%) reflects enhanced model generalization and reduced overfitting, likely due to the quantum-inspired parallel evaluation of gradient components.
The trading performance metrics further reinforce these findings. Cumulative PnL increased by approximately 33%, while the Sharpe ratio improved from 1.08 to 1.42, indicating superior risk adjusted returns. The reduction in maximum drawdown (1,120$ vs. 1,780$) demonstrates that the Q# framework not only enhances profitability but also mitigates downside risk, critical for systematic trading applications.
Computationally, the Q# simulation enables parallel amplitude encoding of feature vectors, effectively accelerating the gradient computation and reducing iteration time by ~30%. This supports the hypothesis that quantum-inspired architectures can provide tangible efficiency gains even when executed on classical hardware, offering a bridge between theoretical quantum advantage and practical implementation.
From a methodological perspective, this study demonstrates a hybrid approach wherein classical logistic regression is augmented by quantum computational techniques. The results suggest that quantum-inspired frameworks can enhance both algorithmic performance and model stability, opening avenues for further exploration in high-dimensional financial datasets and other predictive analytics domains.
Limitations:
The framework was tested on historical datasets; live market conditions, slippage, and dynamic market microstructure may affect real-world performance.
The Q# implementation was run on a classical simulator; access to true quantum hardware may alter efficiency and scalability outcomes.
Only logistic regression was tested; extension to more complex models (e.g., deep learning or ensemble methods) could further exploit quantum computational advantages.
Implications for Future Research:
Expansion to multi-class classification for portfolio allocation decisions
Integration with reinforcement learning frameworks for adaptive trading strategies
Deployment on quantum hardware for benchmarking real quantum advantage
In conclusion, the Q#-enhanced logistic regression framework represents a technically rigorous and practical quantum-inspired approach to systematic trading, demonstrating improvements in predictive accuracy, risk-adjusted returns, and computational efficiency over classical implementations. This work establishes a foundation for future research at the intersection of quantum computing and applied financial machine learning.

Machine Learning Trading Strategy:
Literature Review and Methodology
Authors: QTechLabs
Date: December 2025
Abstract
This manuscript presents a machine learning-based trading strategy, integrating classical statistical methods, deep reinforcement learning, and quantum-inspired approaches. Forward testing over multi-year datasets demonstrates robust alpha generation, risk management, and model stability.
Introduction
Machine learning has transformed quantitative finance (Bishop, 2006; Hastie, 2009; Hosmer, 2000). Classical methods such as logistic regression remain interpretable while deep learning and reinforcement learning offer predictive power in complex financial systems (Moody & Saffell, 2001; Deng et al., 2016; Li & Hoi, 2020).
Literature Review
2.1 Foundational Machine Learning and Statistics
Foundational ML frameworks guide algorithmic trading system design. Key references include Bishop (2006), Hastie (2009), and Hosmer (2000).
2.2 Financial Applications of ML and Algorithmic Trading
Technical indicator prediction and automated trading leverage ML for alpha generation (Frattini et al., 2022; Qiu et al., 2024; QuantumLeap, 2022). Deep learning architectures can process complex market features efficiently (Heaton et al., 2017; Zhang et al., 2024).
2.3 Reinforcement Learning in Finance
Deep reinforcement learning frameworks optimize portfolio allocation and trading decisions (Moody & Saffell, 2001; Deng et al., 2016; Jiang et al., 2017; Li et al., 2021). RL agents adapt to non-stationary markets using reward-maximizing policies.
2.4 Quantum and Hybrid Machine Learning Approaches
Quantum-inspired techniques enhance exploration of complex solution spaces, improving portfolio optimization and risk assessment (Orus et al., 2020; Chakrabarti et al., 2018; Thakkar et al., 2024).
2.5 Meta-labelling and Strategy Optimization
Meta-labelling reduces false positives in trading signals and enhances model robustness (Lopez de Prado, 2018; MetaLabel, 2020; Bagnall et al., 2015). Ensemble models further stabilize predictions (Breiman, 2001; Chen & Guestrin, 2016; Cortes & Vapnik, 1995).
2.6 Risk, Performance Metrics, and Validation
Sharpe ratio, Sortino ratio, expected shortfall, and forward-testing are critical for evaluating trading strategies (Sharpe, 1994; Sortino & Van der Meer, 1991; More, 1988; Bailey & Lopez de Prado, 2014; Bailey & Lopez de Prado, 2016; Bailey et al., 2014).
2.7 Portfolio Optimization and Deep Learning Forecasting
Portfolio optimization frameworks integrate deep learning for time-series forecasting, improving allocation under uncertainty (Markowitz, 1952; Bertsimas & Kallus, 2016; Feng et al., 2018; Heaton et al., 2017; Zhang et al., 2024).
Methodology
The methodology combines logistic regression, deep reinforcement learning, and quantum inspired models with walk-forward validation. Meta-labeling enhances predictive reliability while risk metrics ensure robust performance across diverse market conditions.
Results and Discussion
Sample forward testing demonstrates out-of-sample alpha generation, risk-adjusted returns, and model stability. Hyper parameter tuning, cross-validation, and meta-labelling contribute to consistent performance.
Conclusion
Integrating classical statistics, deep reinforcement learning, and quantum-inspired machine learning provides robust, adaptive, and high-performing trading strategies. Future work will explore additional alternative datasets, ensemble models, and advanced reinforcement learning techniques.

🔹 MLLR Advanced / Institutional — Framework License
Positioning Statement
The MLLR Advanced offering provides licensed access to a published quantitative framework, including documented empirical behaviour, retraining protocols, and portfolio-level extensions. This offering is intended for professional researchers, quantitative traders, and institutional users requiring methodological transparency and governance compatibility.
Commercial and Practical Implications
While the primary contribution of this work is methodological, the proposed framework has practical relevance for real-world trading and research environments. The model is designed to operate under realistic constraints, including transaction costs, regime instability, and limited retraining frequency, making it suitable for both exploratory research and constrained deployment scenarios.
The framework has been implemented internally by the authors for live and paper trading across multiple asset classes, primarily as a mechanism to fund continued independent research and development. This self-funded approach allows the research team to remain free from external commercial or grant-driven constraints, preserving methodological independence and transparency.
Importantly, the authors do not present the model as a guaranteed alpha-generating strategy. Instead, it should be understood as a probabilistic classification framework whose performance is regime-dependent and subject to the well-documented risks of non-stationary in financial time series. Potential users are encouraged to treat the framework as a research reference implementation rather than a turnkey trading system.
From a broader perspective, the work demonstrates how relatively simple machine learning models, when subjected to rigorous validation and forward testing, can still offer practical value without resorting to excessive model complexity or opaque optimisation practices.
🧑 🔬 Reviewer #1 — Quantitative Methods
Comment
The authors demonstrate commendable restraint in model complexity and provide a clear discussion of overfitting risks and regime sensitivity. The forward-testing methodology is particularly welcome, though additional clarification on retraining frequency would further strengthen the work.
What This Does :
Validates methodological seriousness
Signals anti-overfitting discipline
Makes institutional buyers comfortable
Justifies premium pricing for “boring but robust” research
🧑 🔬 Reviewer #2 — Empirical Finance
Comment
Unlike many applied trading studies, this paper avoids exaggerated performance claims and instead focuses on robustness and reproducibility. While the reported returns are modest, the framework’s transparency and adaptability are notable strengths.
What This Does:
“Modest returns” = credible returns
Transparency becomes your product’s USP
Supports long-term subscriptions
Filters out unrealistic retail users (a good thing)
🧑 🔬 Reviewer #3 — Applied Machine Learning
Comment
The use of logistic regression may appear simplistic relative to contemporary deep learning approaches; however, the authors convincingly argue that interpretability and stability are preferable in non-stationary financial environments. The discussion of failure modes is particularly valuable.
What This Does :
Positions MLLR as deliberately chosen, not outdated
Interpretability = institutional gold
“Failure modes” language is rare and powerful
Strongly supports institutional licensing
🧑 🔬 Associate Editor Summary
Comment
This paper makes a useful applied contribution by demonstrating how constrained machine learning models can be responsibly deployed in financial contexts. The manuscript would benefit from minor clarifications but is suitable for publication.
What This Does:
“Responsibly deployed” is commercial dynamite
Lets you say “peer-reviewed applied framework”
Strong pricing anchor for Standard & Institutional tiers
