█ MEAN REVERSION FILTERING SETTINGS
Mean Reversion Filtering Settings are designed to align trading strategies during accumulation market conditions. They set a distance from a line to permit trading. The purpose is to ensure that when the price strays too far from the mean line, it should revert back. In accumulation markets, price movements are generally horizontal. In such situations, mean reversion will operate like a grid, enabling profitable trades with low drawdown. However, when the market structure begins to trend, mean reversion filters may not be as profitable as in accumulation markets. For instance, let's say the price is rising and we are shorting the market until it reaches the mean price line. As the price goes up and the mean also rises, we will end up closing the position at a higher price, rendering the mean reversion system non-profitable. Therefore, consider this filter wisely; greater distances might work better in trending markets.

Fix Me on 1HRTry it as a scalping technice on 1-6hr, play with parameters and see what you think, please give me feedback to reduce the bad orders.
I haven't done anything with the SMA/EMA yet so don't bother- there are some bad trades but when you use it pay most attention to win % and profit margin. If you find something good or an indicator that would fit with it let me know- i think i can get it to 80% profitable here soon once i fix EMA and candle closes.
