CrestPilot

Gann HiLo Activator flip, confirmed by a Trend Intensity lean meter

Overview

CrestPilot rides a self-adjusting Gann HiLo “guardrail” line, but only acts the moment the line flips and the background lean genuinely agrees. Two uncommon tools, one volatility green light — no RSI, no Bollinger Bands, no MACD.

Signal Logic

▲ LONG SIDE

  1. Ridge Line (Gann HiLo) flips to the up side
  2. Lean Meter (Trend Intensity Index) reads above 55
  3. Market Motion (ATR) at or above 80% of its 50-bar average

▼ SHORT SIDE

  1. Ridge Line (Gann HiLo) flips to the down side
  2. Lean Meter (Trend Intensity Index) reads below 45
  3. Market Motion (ATR) at or above 80% of its 50-bar average

Risk Notice

This is a rules-based framework shared for study and discussion — not a promise of results. Backtest 1–2 years of H1 data before any live use, size small while learning its rhythm, and never risk more than you are comfortable losing.
