Artificial Intelligence Accelerator Strategy

This strategy implements a simple perceptron model on top of Bill Williams' Acceleration/Deceleration Oscillator (AC). Four oscillator readings are sampled at lags of 0, 7, 14 and 21 bars and multiplied by adjustable weights. The weighted sum acts as a decision signal: positive values imply bullish momentum and negative values imply bearish momentum. The strategy reverses its position whenever the signal changes sign and places a fixed stop-loss from the entry price.

The AC itself is derived from the Awesome Oscillator (AO) by subtracting a 5-period moving average from the AO. This makes the strategy sensitive to shifts in market acceleration.

Details

  • Entry Criteria:
    • Long: Perceptron signal > 0.
    • Short: Perceptron signal < 0.
  • Long/Short: Both sides; the strategy reverses if the signal flips.
  • Exit Criteria:
    • Stop-loss triggered from the entry price.
    • Reverse when signal crosses zero.
  • Stops: Yes, fixed stop-loss in price units.
  • Default Values:
    • X1 = 76
    • X2 = 47
    • X3 = 153
    • X4 = 135
    • StopLoss = 8355
    • CandleType = 1-minute candles
  • Filters:
    • Category: Trend following
    • Direction: Both
    • Indicators: AC (derived from AO)
    • Stops: Yes
    • Complexity: Moderate
    • Timeframe: Short-term
    • Neural networks: Perceptron
    • Risk level: High
