Strategy #3 Stacking Signals [Rider Algo]

Strategy #3 — Stacking Signals [Rider Algo] — Description (TradingView)

Overview
Strategy #3 is a confirmation/stacking indicator that highlights moments when multiple bullish or bearish signals cluster within a short period.
It is designed to help you spot higher-conviction setups by requiring signal confluence instead of reacting to a single trigger.

What it Detects
The indicator monitors three signal sources and checks if 3 or more signals of the same direction occurred within a rolling window (default 10 bars):

Bullish cluster sources

• []Attention/Warning bullish condition
  []Bullish SS[A] condition
  
• Bullish SS[B] condition
  

Bearish cluster sources

• []Attention/Warning bearish condition
  []Bearish SS[A] condition
  
• Bearish SS[B] condition
  

When the minimum count is reached inside the selected window, it prints a label:

• []“Strat. #3” (Bullish)below the candle
  []“Strat. #3” (Bearish)above the candle
  

To avoid noise, it triggers only once per cluster event (it will not print on every bar while the condition remains true).

Inputs (Settings)

• []Show Strategy #3 Indicator: Enables/disables Strategy #3 signals.
  []Cluster window (bars): Number of bars used for the rolling count (default 10).
  []Min signals in window: Minimum signals required to trigger (default 3).
  []Solo Cluster (hide others): Hides other visual elements and leaves only Strategy #3 on the chart (Strategy #3 remains fully functional).
  

Alerts
Two alert conditions are included:

• []Strategy #3 – Bullish Cluster[]Strategy #3 – Bearish Cluster

Use them to receive notifications the moment a new cluster event is detected.

How to Use

• []Bullish “Strat. #3” suggests stacked bullish confirmations in a short time window (potential continuation or reversal depending on context).
  []Bearish “Strat. #3” suggests stacked bearish confirmations in a short time window.
  
• For best results, combine with market structure, key levels, and a defined risk plan.
  

Practical Use (How I would use Strategy #3)
I use Strategy #3 to identify potential reversal waves after an extended trend, but not as a standalone signal.
Its strength is highlighting short-term counter-moves driven by stacked confirmations.

1) Reversal timing after a long trend
When an asset has been trending for a long time, a “Strat. #3” print can suggest exhaustion + a probable opposing impulse (a reversal wave).
This does not guarantee a full trend change—only an increased probability of a meaningful move in the opposite direction.

2) Confluence with higher timeframes
Before acting, I confirm alignment with:

• []Higher timeframe structure (HTF support/resistance, HTF trend condition)
  []Whether the market is extended from key HTF areas
  

If HTF conditions support the idea, Strategy #3 becomes significantly more actionable.

3) Confirmation with the leading asset / market context
For altcoins, I confirm with the leading asset (e.g., Bitcoin):

• []If ADA prints Strategy #3 bullish, I check whether BTC is holding support or stabilizing.
  []If BTC is defending a key level and Strategy #3 prints on the alt, the probability improves.
  

4) Profit-taking tool (partial exits)
I also use Strategy #3 for partial profit-taking when I am holding an asset:

• []After a strong move, a Strategy #3 signal can indicate a counter-wave is likely.
  []I take partial profits, not a full exit, because the indicator is designed to anticipate a push against the current move, not a confirmed macro trend reversal.
  

5) Confirming a true trend change (use other tools)
To evaluate whether the reversal wave becomes a real trend shift, I rely on additional confirmation tools—e.g., Moving Average Master (Rider Algo #2)—instead of expecting Strategy #3 to predict an absolute trend reversal on its own.
