How the strategy works (in plain words)
1. Trend (5-minute chart of the Gold Mini future of the same month as the options) — 44 SMA + VWAP + 20 SMA. The trend changes only on a candle where all three agree at the same time:
• Bullish: (1) the candle crosses up through the 44 SMA or closes above it; (2) it crosses up through VWAP in the same candle, or VWAP is completely below the candle; (3) at least 80% of its body is above the 20 SMA, or the 20 SMA is completely below the candle.
• Bearish: (1) the candle crosses down through the 44 SMA or closes below it; (2) it crosses down through VWAP, or VWAP is completely above the candle; (3) at least 80% of its body is below the 20 SMA, or the 20 SMA is completely above the candle.
• The conditions don't have to start on the same candle as the 44 SMA cross: e.g. a red candle crosses the 44 SMA while VWAP is still below it — no change yet; 3–4 candles later a candle crosses VWAP with the 20 SMA also agreeing → the trend turns bearish on that candle.
• Once set, the trend stays — candles on the other side of VWAP or the 20 SMA don't matter — until all three line up the other way. VWAP restarts every day; the trend carries on from one day to the next.
2. What to sell. Bullish → sell PE only. Bearish → sell CE only. 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 counts only if that SMA is on the right side of the 20 SMA (the Bollinger middle line):
• Bullish: a green candle crosses up through the 44 / 200 SMA, and that SMA is below the 20 SMA (lower band), and the candle touches the 20 SMA (or the 20 SMA is below the candle). In a bullish trend → SELL PE.
• Bearish: a red candle crosses down through the 44 / 200 SMA, and that SMA is above the 20 SMA (upper band), and the candle touches the 20 SMA (or the 20 SMA is above the candle). In a bearish trend → SELL CE.
• A crossover against the trend is ignored. The contract sold is the watch-list PE or CE (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.
• Range (High − Low) bigger than 20 points → SELL LIMIT at High − 20, so the most you can lose up to that candle's High is 20 points (e.g. a 30-point candle → entry 10 points above its Low). 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 stop is hit first, the 5-min trend flips, or the day ends, the order is cancelled and no trade is counted.
• Range 20 points or less → sell immediately at that candle's close.
• If the option had no trade in that minute, the signal is skipped.
5. Exit. Target: when the option premium falls 40 points below the entry (change it above), exit at entry − 40. Stop loss (future chart, the only one): when a later 1-min future candle closes above the crossover candle's High (CE trades) or below the crossover candle's Low (PE trades), exit the option at that minute's close. In backtests, anything still open at the end of the day is closed at the day's last candle.
• Bullish: (1) the candle crosses up through the 44 SMA or closes above it; (2) it crosses up through VWAP in the same candle, or VWAP is completely below the candle; (3) at least 80% of its body is above the 20 SMA, or the 20 SMA is completely below the candle.
• Bearish: (1) the candle crosses down through the 44 SMA or closes below it; (2) it crosses down through VWAP, or VWAP is completely above the candle; (3) at least 80% of its body is below the 20 SMA, or the 20 SMA is completely above the candle.
• The conditions don't have to start on the same candle as the 44 SMA cross: e.g. a red candle crosses the 44 SMA while VWAP is still below it — no change yet; 3–4 candles later a candle crosses VWAP with the 20 SMA also agreeing → the trend turns bearish on that candle.
• Once set, the trend stays — candles on the other side of VWAP or the 20 SMA don't matter — until all three line up the other way. VWAP restarts every day; the trend carries on from one day to the next.

• Bullish: a green candle crosses up through the 44 / 200 SMA, and that SMA is below the 20 SMA (lower band), and the candle touches the 20 SMA (or the 20 SMA is below the candle). In a bullish trend → SELL PE.
• Bearish: a red candle crosses down through the 44 / 200 SMA, and that SMA is above the 20 SMA (upper band), and the candle touches the 20 SMA (or the 20 SMA is above the candle). In a bearish trend → SELL CE.
