J-Lines Ribbon • 4-Cycle Engine (CHOP / ANTI / LONG / SHORT)

📈 J-Lines Ribbon • 4-Cycle Engine (CHOP / ANTI / LONG / SHORT)
Version: Pine Script v6
Author: Thomas Lee
Category: Trend-Following / Mean Reversion / Scalping
Timeframes: Optimized for 1–5m (but adaptable) Seems to work best on Fibb Time
🧠 Strategy Overview:
The J-Lines Ribbon 4-Cycle Engine is a precision trading algorithm designed to navigate complex market microstructure across four adaptive states:
🔁 CHOP (No Trade / Flatten)
🟡 ANTI (Legacy Layer / Under Development)
🟢 LONG (Trend-Continuation & Rebounds)
🔴 SHORT (Inverse Trend-Continuation & Rebounds)
It combines a multi-layer EMA ribbon, ADX-based CHOP detection, and smart pivot analysis to dynamically shift between market modes, entering and exiting trades with surgical precision.
🔍 Core Features:
Dynamic Market Cycle Detection
Auto-classifies each bar into one of the 4 market states using ADX + EMA 72/89 crossovers.
One-Shot Entries & Rebound Logic
Initiates base entries at the start of new trend cycles. Re-entries (ReLong/ReShort) trigger on EMA 72 and EMA 126 pullbacks with momentum resumption.
CHOP State Autopilot
Automatically closes open positions when CHOP begins, preventing sideways market exposure.
Precision Take-Profits & Pivots-Based Stop Losses
Real-time adaptive exits using pivot high/low swing points as dynamic SL/TP anchors.
Customizable Parameters
Pivot length (left/right)
ADX thresholds
Rebound tolerance bands
Ribbon display and state-labels
📊 Indicator Components:
📏 EMA Ribbon: 72, 89, 126, 267, 360, 445
📉 ADX Filter: Filters out sideways noise, confirms directional bias
🔁 Crossover Events: Detects trend initiations
🌀 Cycle Labels: Real-time visual display of current market state
🛠️ Ideal Use Cases:
Scalping volatile markets
Automated strategy testing & optimization
Entry/exit signal confirmation for discretionary traders
Trend filtering in algorithmic stacks
⚠️ Notes:
ANTI cycle logic is scaffolded but not fully deployed in this version. It will be extended in a future release for deep mean-reversion detection.
Tailor ADX floor and pivot sensitivity to your specific asset and timeframe for optimal performance.
