""" IVB ORB Crypto V4 — Tightened Risk, Longer Winners, ATR Trail =============================================================== V3 analysis: - 56.3% WR (matches IVB validated 58.3%) - Trailing exits: 100% WR, +46.36 USDT (THE EDGE) - Stop losses: -75.63 USDT (21 trades at -4.43% avg) - Net: -29.27% (trail profits eaten by stops) V4 FIXES: 1. Enter stop at ORB Low (IVB validated: SL = ORB low for longs) → Instead of fixed %, use the actual ORB range for stop distance 2. Wider trail offset (2.5% instead of 2%) to let winners run 3. Tighter initial ATR stop (1.0x ATR instead of 1.5x) 4. Add position sizing based on ORB range (risk 1% per trade) 5. Volume must be 2x average (stricter than V3's 1.5x) 6. Require ORB range < ATR*2 (avoid entering on crazy volatile days) """ import numpy as np import pandas as pd from freqtrade.strategy import IStrategy, DecimalParameter, IntParameter class IVB_ORB_Crypto_V4(IStrategy): """IVB ORB V4 — ORB-based stops, wider trail, strict entries""" INTERFACE_VERSION = 3 can_short = False # LONG ONLY timeframe = "5m" startup_candle_count = 200 stoploss = -0.05 # 5% hard fallback minimal_roi = {"0": 100} use_exit_signal = True exit_profit_only = False # Trailing stop — let winners run further trailing_stop = True trailing_stop_positive = 0.015 # 1.5% trail (wider to let winners run) trailing_stop_positive_offset = 0.03 # Activate at 3% profit trailing_only_offset_is_reached = True stake_amount = "unlimited" max_open_trades = 3 # ─── PARAMETERS ─────────────────────────────────────────── orb_duration = IntParameter(6, 18, default=6, space="buy", optimize=True) orb_start_hour_utc = IntParameter(12, 15, default=13, space="buy", optimize=False) min_orb_range_pct = DecimalParameter(0.3, 1.2, default=0.4, decimals=2, space="buy", optimize=True) # Delta filter delta_zscore_threshold = DecimalParameter(0.5, 3.0, default=1.5, decimals=1, space="buy", optimize=True) # ATR-based stop atr_sl_mult = DecimalParameter(0.8, 2.0, default=1.0, decimals=1, space="sell", optimize=True) # Max ORB range as multiple of ATR (avoid entering on extreme volatility) max_orb_atr_ratio = DecimalParameter(1.5, 4.0, default=2.5, decimals=1, space="buy", optimize=True) leverage_num = DecimalParameter(3, 10, default=5.0, decimals=0, space="buy", optimize=False) def leverage(self, pair, current_time, current_rate, proposed_leverage, entry_tag, side, max_leverage, **kwargs): return float(self.leverage_num.value) def populate_indicators(self, dataframe, metadata): df = dataframe.copy() # ── RSI ── delta = df["close"].diff() gain = delta.clip(lower=0) loss = -delta.clip(upper=0) avg_gain = gain.ewm(alpha=1/14, min_periods=14).mean() avg_loss = loss.ewm(alpha=1/14, min_periods=14).mean() rs = avg_gain / avg_loss.replace(0, np.nan) df["rsi"] = 100 -
