_____________________________________________________________________________
Overview

FxAST Lite Wave is a rule-based trend participation strategy designed to adapt across multiple markets and timeframes using a simple profile switch.

Rather than attempting to predict reversals or tops and bottoms, the strategy focuses on identifying continuation opportunities once directional alignment and market participation are already present.

Its purpose is to provide a structured, repeatable framework for studying trend behavior and managing trades within established directional moves.

How It Works

FxAST Lite Wave evaluates market conditions using a layered confirmation process that includes:

• Directional bias
• Trend alignment
• Momentum participation
• Volatility suitability
• Market regime awareness

Trades are only considered when these conditions align, helping to reduce low-quality signals and overtrading during unfavorable environments.

Two built-in profiles are provided:

• Intraday — designed for shorter-term participation
  
• Swing — designed for higher-timeframe continuation
