Strategy Concept

TEMA ADX Momentum Strategy is a futures strategy based on technical indicators that assess trend structure, momentum, volatility, and breakout quality through the indicator combination in its name. Its core idea is to open positions only when directional signals and risk filters agree, then let Freqtrade manage exits through ROI, stop-loss, trailing-stop, and strategy exit rules. The strategy was evaluated on the 1h timeframe across WIF/USDT:USDT, ADA/USDT:USDT, APT/USDT:USDT.

This strategy was backtested directly from the default TemaAdxCmo_PairOptimized class. Entry, exit, leverage, and pair-filter parameters were taken from the strategy and TemaAdxCmo_PairOptimized_Settings.json; no additional optimization parameters were loaded for this run.
