NR4/NR7 + Trend + MACD + VWAP Filter

The Ultimate Momentum-Compression Strategy
This strategy merges the power of price compression and trend confirmation, ensuring you're trading when the market is coiled and ready to move. By combining multiple filters—NR4/NR7, trend alignment, MACD momentum, and VWAP support—this setup identifies high-probability trade opportunities in dynamic, trending stocks. Here's how it works:
NR4/NR7 Patterns: These are narrow-range days where the current price range is smaller than the previous 4 or 7 days. This signals potential breakout or continuation setups, as the market is compressing before making a move.
Trend Confirmation: To ensure you're not trading against the current trend, the price must be above the 20 EMA, and the 10 EMA must be above the 20 EMA. This confirms a bullish structure, with the price trending in your favour.
MACD Momentum: The fast MACD line must be above the slow MACD line, confirming the trend is not only intact but also gaining momentum.
VWAP Filter: Price must be above the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price). This is the final confirmation that the market is in a strong, bullish phase, with buyers dominating the market.
By requiring all these conditions to align, this strategy takes the guesswork out of day trading. It ensures you're trading within a well-established trend, with compression patterns and momentum backing your trade. The result? You’re entering positions with confidence and clarity, poised to ride strong, sustained moves.
This strategy is for the trader who values both flexibility and discipline—able to capture dynamic moves while staying aligned with market structure and momentum. It’s a refined, systematic approach that makes decisions clear, without the emotional second-guessing.
