KusKus Starlight Strategy📌 Gabriel's KusKus Starlight Strategy – Adaptive Volume-Based Momentum System
Description:
Gabriel’s KusKus Starlight Strategy is a high-precision, volume-driven trading system designed for short- to medium-term intraday setups. By combining Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) with Fisher Transform logic, Z-Score anomaly detection, and adaptive moving averages (like Jurik MA and Super Smoother), the strategy seeks to capture early trend shifts, continuation breakouts, and statistically favorable reversals.
🧠 How It Works
CVD-Based Fisher Oscillator
Transforms volume delta imbalances into clean trend signals using a Fisher Transform with dual-stage smoothing.
Jurik Signal Line & Super Smoother
Provides confirmation filters that reduce whipsaw trades by identifying prevailing trend direction.
Z-Score & Velocity Boosters
Highlight when momentum is accelerating with statistical outliers, improving early entry timing.
ATR-Driven Trade Management
All entries use dynamically calculated Stop Loss and Take Profit levels based on ATR, with optional hour-specific overrides.
🎯 Strategy Entry Conditions
🔼 Long Entry:
A long trade is entered when all the following are true:
Fisher (smoothedFish) crosses above 0
Z-Score (ZKusKus) is rising or Z-Score velocity is rising
Fisher is above the Jurik MA (signal)
Price (src) is above the Super Smoother MA (ma)
Time filter is allowed (optional setting)
🔽 Short Entry:
A short trade is entered when all the following are true:
Fisher (smoothedFish) crosses below 0
Z-Score (ZKusKus) is falling or Z-Score velocity is rising
Fisher is still above the Jurik MA (signal) (anticipating exhaustion)
Price (src) is below the Super Smoother MA (ma)
Time filter is allowed (optional setting)
📤 Strategy Exit Conditions
Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels are based on the ATR multiplied by dynamic multipliers.
Both TP and SL can be adjusted per hour using tp_hour_* and risk_hour_* settings to reflect optimal market behavior during different sessions.
⏰ Smart Hour-Based Filters
Use include Hours to restrict trading to 3 specific hours (e.g., 7, 8, 9). Each hour has its own:
Risk % Allocation
TP Multiplier
This adds fine-tuned control over position sizing and target reachability.
📈 Recommended Timeframes:
Optimized for 30-minute ~ 1 Hour charts, but adaptable to 1m–15m with parameter tuning.
Use hourly filters to target only statistically profitable hours, London ~ New York Afterhours.
📌 Ideal Use Case:
For traders looking to fade weak volume reversals or ride volume-supported breakouts with smart, auto-adjusting position sizing—this strategy offers a refined and flexible framework grounded in real-time order flow behavior.
