How Fenix Wyckoff Squeeze — BTC 30m works

Rules in this group usually work like this. It waits until price is already moving, then joins that move. It is wrong in small ways many times, and right in a large way a few times. The hard part is the stretch where price chops around and every entry is a fake. The next paragraph is this particular rule, which can be narrower than the group.

It can buy, and it can bet on falling prices. It acts only when several checks agree at once. It leans on ATR, DMI, EMA, linear regression; those names are explained on their own pages, further down. The exact line is in the list below, in the author's names, and you can skip that list. It gets out when another set of checks agrees. That line is in the list below too.

Each trade uses the whole account. It holds one trade at a time.

The exact condition, from the code

Same rule, translated from the code, in the author's names. You can skip this list if the paragraph above was enough.

• Enters long when squeeze off and recent squeeze and the close is above EMA 2h and HMA is above the previous HMA and phoenix bull and the 1320-period linear regression of wt1 is above 50 and volume ok and (not (Enable Regime filter (ADX) (on)) or ADX is at or above ADX threshold (18)) and no position is open.
• Enters short when squeeze off and recent squeeze and the close is below EMA 2h and HMA is below the previous HMA and phoenix bear and the 1320-period linear regression of wt1 is below 50 and volume ok and (not (Enable Regime filter (ADX) (on)) or ADX is at or above ADX threshold (18)) and no position is open.
• Closes the position when a long position is open and (the close is at or below (the close − (the 412-period ATR × (ATR stop mult (18.6) × volume scale))) or the close is at or above (the close + (the 412-period ATR × (ATR TP mult (38.8) × volume scale))) or bars held is at or above Max hold bars (480) or ((((tci + mf) + RSI h) / 3) crosses below the 6-period SMA of wt1 or exit long slope)).
• Closes the position when a short position is open and (the close is at or above (the close − (the 412-period ATR × (ATR stop mult (18.6) × volume scale))) or the close is at or below (the close + (the 412-period ATR × (ATR TP mult (38.8) × volume scale))) or bars held is at or above Max hold bars (480) or ((((tci + mf) + RSI h) / 3) crosses above the 6-period SMA of wt1 or exit short slope)).

How the backtest was run

Every strategy was tried the same way, on the settings the author published.

The years are October 2021 to June 2026. The prices are from Bybit, for 13 widely traded coins, mostly on hourly, 4-hour and daily charts, with some faster charts. That was 47,242 tries. The window stored in the files is 2021-09..2026-06.

599 rules produced a finished try. A rule that finished above zero on at least 12 cells, before any fee, was tried again with a fee of 0.12 percent per side. Only buys are counted in that second try. 273 rules got it.

The method, the aggregate results and a downloadable table are on the study page. What the desk does with the results beyond these pages is its own.

Before any fee, it was tried on 67 cells, and it placed no trades.

It was not run a second time with a fee. That second pass happens only when at least 12 cells finished above zero before fees. 273 rules got that pass.

Cells tried	67
Cells that placed a trade	0
Finished above zero	0

How to read the result

How to read the number

No cell took a trade, so there is no return to read. The rule above is the whole note.

What this does not show

The useful question, for a rule that joins a move already underway, is what it gave back in the choppy months when there was no trend to join.

There is no cell to single out, and this note does not invent one. Other years, another exchange, or another fee would be a different measurement.

Questions about Fenix Wyckoff Squeeze — BTC 30m

Words used on this page

Backtest

The rule was tried on old prices. No real money moved.

Cell

One coin on one chart speed. Bitcoin every 4 hours is one cell. Bitcoin once a day is another.

Chart speed

How often a new price bar is drawn. 15m means every 15 minutes, 1h means hourly, 4h means every 4 hours, 1D means once a day.

Fee, per side

A cost taken each time the rule trades. Per side means once on the way in and once on the way out.

Median

Line the cells up from the biggest loss to the biggest gain. The median is the middle one. Half the cells did better and half did worse.

Drawdown

The deepest fall from a high point along the way, as a percent of the account at that high.

Above zero

The account finished with more than it started.

The indicators Fenix Wyckoff Squeeze — BTC 30m uses

Each has its own page: what it measures, how it is read, where it misleads.

• ADX and the directional movement index: how strong the trend is, not which way
• ATR (average true range): the volatility number behind most stops
• Exponential moving average (EMA): what it measures and where it misleads
• Linear regression on a chart: the least-squares line, its slope, and the channel around it
• RSI (relative strength index): the formula, the 70/30 rule, and why it misleads in trends
• Simple moving average (SMA): the plainest average, and why it still runs half the strategies
• Standard deviation in trading: the volatility measure inside Bollinger Bands and z-scores
• Weighted moving average (WMA): linear weights, less lag, and the price of it
