The ConsensusShort strategy is a trading strategy that aims to generate buy and sell signals based on the evaluation of multiple technical indicators. It uses the following indicators to make its decisions: RSI, Stochastic, MACD crossover, MACD, Hull, VWMA, TEMA, EMA, SMA, Laguerre, OSC, CMF, CCI, CMO, Ichimoku, Ultimate Oscillator, Williams, Momentum, and ADX. In the populate_indicators method, the strategy evaluates each of these indicators on the given dataframe and stores the resulting scores for buying and selling signals in the columns 'consensus_buy' and 'consensus_sell', respectively.
The populate_entry_trend method populates the 'enter_short' column with a value of 1 if the 'consensus_buy' score is below a certain threshold (self.buy_score_short.value).
It doesn't populate the 'enter_long' column based on the given code snippet.
The populate_exit_trend method populates the 'exit_short' column with a value of 1 if the 'consensus_sell' score is below a certain threshold (self.sell_score_short.value). It doesn't populate the 'exit_long' column based on the given code snippet. The proposed_leverage method is not implemented in the provided code snippet. Overall, the ConsensusShort strategy combines multiple indicators to generate entry and exit signals for short positions in trading.
