The Strategy004 class is a trading strategy that uses various technical analysis (TA) indicators to generate buy and sell signals. Here's a breakdown of what the strategy does:
populate_indicators method:
Adds the following TA indicators to the given DataFrame:
Average Directional Index (ADX) with two different periods: adx and slowadx
Commodity Channel Index (CCI): cci
Stochastic Fast %D and %K values: fastd, fastk, fastk-previous, fastd-previous
Stochastic Slow %D and %K values: slowfastd, slowfastk, slowfastk-previous, slowfastd-previous
Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a time period of 5: ema5
Mean volume: mean-volume
Returns the updated DataFrame with the added indicators. populate_buy_trend method:
Based on the TA indicators, populates the buy signal for the DataFrame.
The buy signal conditions include:
ADX conditions: either adx or slowadx values meet the specified thresholds.
CCI condition: cci value is below a specified threshold.
Stochastic Fast %K and %D conditions: both fastk-previous and fastd-previous values are below a specified threshold. Stochastic Slow %K and %D conditions: both slowfastk-previous and slowfastd-previous values are below a specified threshold. Additional conditions related to fastk, fastd, mean volume, and their previous values. If any of the conditions are met, the 'buy' column in the DataFrame is set to 1. Returns the updated DataFrame. populate_sell_trend method:
Based on the TA indicators, populates the sell signal for the DataFrame. The sell signal conditions include:
Slow ADX condition: slowadx value is below a specified threshold. Stochastic Fast %K and %D conditions: either fastk or fastd value is above a specified threshold. Additional condition related to the closing price and the EMA5 indicator. If any of the conditions are met, the 'sell' column in the DataFrame is set to 1. Returns the updated DataFrame. Overall, this strategy utilizes indicators like ADX, CCI, Stochastic oscillators, EMA, and volume to determine buy and sell signals based on specified thresholds.
