The 90 claims that died at invariance

Control 1 of 6 · where the result came from

What this control does
We look at where the result came from: whether it is spread across the trades or packed into a handful of them.
What failing it means
It concentrated. That is the shape of a lottery: the typical trade loses, and a rare handful pays for everything. Anyone following the rule for real would face a long run of losses before any gain, and would almost certainly quit before it arrived.

The six run cheapest first and most expensive last, and each one only kills what the earlier ones let through — so these 90 had already survived the 0 controls before it.

Adaptive RSI (14, direct constant)

Varying the calculation period need not be confined to a trend formula: any momentum indicator that moves within a known range can be turned into a smoothing constant, and then governs the line's speed. A high reading means more trend and allows a fast line; a low reading means more noise and demands a slow one. The same indicator once used to measure exhaustion becomes a thermometer for speed.

Adaptive stochastic (2–30/3, 20/80)

Varying the calculation period need not be confined to a trend formula: the period of any technique can be adaptive. A fixed-window stochastic measures exhaustion against a range that may be far too wide or far too narrow for the moment; adjusting the window to the market's noise means the overbought and oversold reading is taken against the range that actually matters now.

Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (10, 0,1σ filter)

A noisy market demands a slower trend; a market that moves in a straight line allows any speed, because there is no false reversal to fear. Adjusting the speed to the noise on every bar — accelerating when price advances without backing up, braking when it oscillates — lets the line use the fastest trend the current conditions allow, and still not be penetrated by the erratic movement that would cause an unwanted turn. It is the best of the two worlds a fixed-period average forces you to choose between.

McGinley Dynamic (10, k=0.6)

An ordinary moving average treats every departure of price the same way. Making the step depend on the distance between price and the line itself lets the average adjust on its own to how far the market has strayed from it — closing the gap quickly when it has fallen behind, and resisting when price is merely oscillating around it.

VIDYA (9/30, accelerates on volatility, as the formula says)

The trend's speed should respond to relative volatility: comparing the distribution of recent moves against a longer historical yardstick tells you whether the market is more agitated than its own normal. Volatility above normal slows the trend and volatility below it speeds it up, so the line is not turned by passing agitation and still keeps up with the market when it settles.

r²-adaptive moving average (20)

How closely price resembles a straight line is itself the trend measure an adaptive average needs: when the regression fits well there is direction and the line can be fast; when the fit is poor there is no apparent direction and the line should be slow. And because the coefficient already runs between 0 and 1, it drops straight into the place of the smoothing constant, with no transformation at all.

20-day breakout on 2× volume

Elliott by the wave oscillator (5/35, n=60, trigger 0.25)

Elliott waves are acknowledged to be hard to apply because they depend on the eye of whoever is counting. Replacing the visual count with a two-average oscillator and a handful of state rules makes the five-wave structure identifiable without judgement — and you trade precisely the two legs where the theory says the movement is, the third and the fifth, staying out of the fourth.

Momentum with volume (10)

A price move accompanied by heavy volume is worth more than the same move in a vacuum: volume measures how much the market actually took part.

Oscillator with ADX filter (10/50, ADX<30)

A two-average oscillator times price swings well when the market goes nowhere, and takes a beating when a trend exists, because it then keeps selling the rally and buying the dip. Measuring trend strength with an index that ignores direction lets you trade the oscillator only in the periods where it works and stand aside in the others — without ever having to predict which way the trend will go.

Parabolic Directional (0.02–0.2, DM14)

A stop that creeps towards price on every bar extracts a trend's profits well, but pays dearly for always being in the market: it also reverses the position when there is no trend at all. Requiring directional movement to agree with the side before entering means reversals against the dominant direction are no longer taken, and the system stands aside instead of trading the noise.

Speed and acceleration (10)

The first difference removes the level and leaves speed; the second removes speed and leaves acceleration — each step reveals a more sensitive component of the move. A price that rises is one thing; a price that rises ever faster is another, and it is the second that confirms the strength of the move under way.

Strength oscillator (20)

The unpredictability of trending markets is the analyst's biggest problem. Comparing how far price actually travels with how much it merely swings within the day separates the periods where direction exists from those where there is only noise — and lets you use the right strategy in each, instead of applying one rule to markets that behave in opposite ways.

TRIX (14)

Smoothing three times before measuring the change delivers a line so clean that its own change of direction serves as an early signal, without the noise that forces you to wait for confirmation. And because the difference is taken at the end rather than the beginning, most of the lag triple smoothing would introduce is given back.

Trend entry timing (40/5, 20/80)

Trend-system entries always look badly timed: the signal arrives after price has already moved. Using a fast oscillator only to pick the moment — buying the pullback inside an uptrend, selling the bounce inside a downtrend — gets a better price without abandoning the direction the trend indicates. The oscillator does not decide the side; it decides only the timing.

True Strength Index (20/20/3)

Using the price change as a proxy for price advances the move before it is smoothed. That allows heavy smoothing — enough to remove the noise that makes an ordinary momentum indicator give the wrong signal — while keeping much of the sensitivity, because the lag the smoothing introduces was paid for in advance by the differencing.

Ultimate Oscillator (7/14/28)

A short-period oscillator is sensitive but unstable; lengthening it adds lag. Combining three periods at once, with decreasing weight, gives the sensitivity of the short one without its instability — and requiring the bounce to fail to exceed the previous peak filters out most of the false alarms a threshold alone would produce.
