Strategy Number: #129 (9th in Batch 13) Strategy Type: Multi-Condition Trend Following + Bollinger Band Rebound + Dynamic Take-Profit Timeframe: 5 Minutes (5m) + 1 Hour (1h) Dual Timeframe

I. Strategy Overview​

Combined_NFIv7_SMA_Rallipanos_20210707 is a variant of the NostalgiaForInfinityV7 series created by Freqtrade community developer iterativ. Created on July 7, 2021, the strategy inherits the core design philosophy of the Nostalgia For Infinity series, integrating multiple technical indicator protection mechanisms and multi-timeframe analysis.

From the strategy architecture, the strategy adopts a "protection layer + core signal" dual-layer filtering mechanism. Each buy condition group is equipped with EMA protection, SMA200 trend protection, and special protection mechanisms for "dips" and "pumps." The 5-minute primary timeframe captures short-term opportunities while the 1-hour timeframe confirms long-term direction.
