36# Bollinger Bands with Nonlinear MA
Janus Trader 2025
This strategy combines Bollinger Bands, a Nonlinear Moving Average (NMA), and a
Hull Moving Average (HMA) with Kalman smoothing to identify market structure, volatility, and trend direction.
It is designed for traders who prefer trend-following setups with volatility confirmation and clear entry/exit signals.
Setup
-
Chart Type: Candlestick (any asset, works best on Forex, Indices, and Crypto).
-
Timeframe: 15-minute and above.
-
Indicators Used:
-
Nonlinear Moving Average (NMA): Black stepline to filter overall trend.
-
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price): Purple line as a fair value benchmark.
-
Bollinger Bands (20, 2): Red baseline with blue upper/lower bands for volatility expansion.
-
Hull MA + Kalman Filter: Green/Red channel to generate Buy/Sell signals.
-
Trading Rules
Buy Setup
Buy label appears below the bar.
-
Price is above NMA and preferably above VWAP.
Hull MA turns green (short line > long line).
Entry on the next candle open.
Sell Setup
-
Sell label appears above the bar.
Price is below NMA and preferably below VWAP.
Hull MA turns red (long line > short line).
Entry on the next candle open.
Note Important : Maximum two tolerance candles to check the alignment of the conditions, but 1 candle 2 is recommended only with price levels not far from the close of the candle with the buy or sell signal.
Exit Rules
-
Take Profit: At opposite Bollinger Band or fixed R:R ratio (e.g., 1:2).
Stop Loss: Below (for Buy) / above (for Sell) the most recent swing or opposite side of the Bollinger Band.
Optional Exit: When Hull MA flips color in the opposite direction.
Conclusion
This strategy works best in trending environments with volatility
expansion.
It avoids overtrading by waiting for confirmed Hull MA crossovers supported by NMA trend and
Bollinger/VWAP confluence.
As always, traders should backtest, manage risk, and adapt parameters to their specific market and timeframe.
