How the strategy works (in plain words)
1. Trend (5-minute chart of the Gold Mini future of the same month as the options) — based only on the 44 SMA.
• Start: candles forming above the 44 SMA → bullish. A complete candle (open and close) below the 44 SMA → bearish.
• The crossover is the direction: a candle crossing down through the 44 SMA → bearish; a green candle crossing up through it → bullish. This works from any state.
• Bullish + 3 red candles in a row → trend not identifiable. It stays not identifiable (more red candles above the 44 SMA change nothing) until 3 green candles in a row → bullish again, or a red candle crosses down through the 44 SMA → bearish. If one of the 3 red candles itself crosses the 44 SMA, the trend is bearish straight away.
• Bearish + 3 green candles in a row (still below the 44 SMA) → trend not identifiable, until 3 red candles in a row → bearish again, or a green candle crosses up through the 44 SMA → bullish.
• While the trend is not identifiable, no signals are given. The 20 SMA and VWAP are not used for the trend. The trend carries on from one day to the next.
2. What to sell. Bullish → sell PE only. Bearish → sell CE only. Not identifiable → nothing. No buy trades.
3. Trigger (1-minute chart of the same Gold Mini future — the option chart is NOT used for the signal). A crossover of the 44 SMA or 200 SMA (candle opens on one side, closes on the other) counts only if that SMA is on the right side of the 20 SMA (the Bollinger middle line):
• Bullish crossover → the crossing 44 / 200 SMA must be below the 20 SMA (lower band). In a bullish trend this gives SELL PE.
• Bearish crossover → the crossing 44 / 200 SMA must be above the 20 SMA (upper band). In a bearish trend this gives SELL CE.
• A crossover against the trend, or while the trend is not identifiable, is ignored.
The contract sold is the watch-list PE or CE (picked exactly as before: one PE and one CE from the 5 strikes nearest the future, inside the premium band, re-checked every 15 minutes).
4. Entry price (option chart). The option's 1-min candle of the same minute as the future crossover is used. If its High–Low is bigger than 20 points, a SELL LIMIT at the middle, (High + Low) ÷ 2, is placed; it counts as filled only when a later option candle's high reaches that price (a candle opening above it fills at that open). If the option closes above its 20 SMA first, the trend flips, or the day ends, the order is cancelled and no trade is counted. If the range is 20 points or less, the sale is at that option candle's close. If the option had no trade in that minute, the signal is skipped.
5. Exit (option chart). Target: when the option premium falls 30 points below the entry (change it above), exit at entry − 30. Stop: when an option candle (1-min or 5-min, as chosen above) closes above the signal candle's High or above its 20 SMA, exit at that close. In backtests, anything still open at the end of the day is closed at the day's last candle.
• Start: candles forming above the 44 SMA → bullish. A complete candle (open and close) below the 44 SMA → bearish.
• The crossover is the direction: a candle crossing down through the 44 SMA → bearish; a green candle crossing up through it → bullish. This works from any state.
• Bullish + 3 red candles in a row → trend not identifiable. It stays not identifiable (more red candles above the 44 SMA change nothing) until 3 green candles in a row → bullish again, or a red candle crosses down through the 44 SMA → bearish. If one of the 3 red candles itself crosses the 44 SMA, the trend is bearish straight away.
• Bearish + 3 green candles in a row (still below the 44 SMA) → trend not identifiable, until 3 red candles in a row → bearish again, or a green candle crosses up through the 44 SMA → bullish.
• While the trend is not identifiable, no signals are given. The 20 SMA and VWAP are not used for the trend. The trend carries on from one day to the next.
2. What to sell. Bullish → sell PE only. Bearish → sell CE only. Not identifiable → nothing. No buy trades.
3. Trigger (1-minute chart of the same Gold Mini future — the option chart is NOT used for the signal). A crossover of the 44 SMA or 200 SMA (candle opens on one side, closes on the other) counts only if that SMA is on the right side of the 20 SMA (the Bollinger middle line):
• Bullish crossover → the crossing 44 / 200 SMA must be below the 20 SMA (lower band). In a bullish trend this gives SELL PE.
• Bearish crossover → the crossing 44 / 200 SMA must be above the 20 SMA (upper band). In a bearish trend this gives SELL CE.
• A crossover against the trend, or while the trend is not identifiable, is ignored.
The contract sold is the watch-list PE or CE (picked exactly as before: one PE and one CE from the 5 strikes nearest the future, inside the premium band, re-checked every 15 minutes).
4. Entry price (option chart). The option's 1-min candle of the same minute as the future crossover is used. If its High–Low is bigger than 20 points, a SELL LIMIT at the middle, (High + Low) ÷ 2, is placed; it counts as filled only when a later option candle's high reaches that price (a candle opening above it fills at that open). If the option closes above its 20 SMA first, the trend flips, or the day ends, the order is cancelled and no trade is counted. If the range is 20 points or less, the sale is at that option candle's close. If the option had no trade in that minute, the signal is skipped.
5. Exit (option chart). Target: when the option premium falls 30 points below the entry (change it above), exit at entry − 30. Stop: when an option candle (1-min or 5-min, as chosen above) closes above the signal candle's High or above its 20 SMA, exit at that close. In backtests, anything still open at the end of the day is closed at the day's last candle.
