How Multi-Confluence Swing Hunter V1 works

Rules in this group usually work like this. It buys after a fall and sells after a rise, on the idea that price returns toward normal. The wins are usually small and frequent. The loss comes when price does not return and the stretch turns into a trend. The next paragraph is this particular rule, which can be narrower than the group.

It only buys. It does not bet on falling prices. It acts only when several checks agree at once. It leans on MACD, RSI, SMA; 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. When it enters, it also sets a stop or a target, so a trade can close without a new signal.

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 (entry score + (2 when RSI is below RSI Oversold Level (30), else 0)) is at or above Minimum Entry Score (13) and no position is open.
• Places a stop at undefined, a target at undefined when a long position is open and Use Risk/Reward TP/SL (on) and tpsl set.
• Closes the position when (exit score + (2 when RSI is above RSI Overbought Level (70), else 0)) is at or above Minimum Exit Score (13) and a long position is open and not (Use Risk/Reward TP/SL (on)).

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 9 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	9
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 is the stretch that never snapped back. That is where a year of small wins can disappear.

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 Multi-Confluence Swing Hunter V1

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 Multi-Confluence Swing Hunter V1 uses

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

• MACD: two EMAs, a signal line and a histogram, read correctly
• 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
