DSS of Adaptive Super Smoother (MT4)

DSS of Adaptive Super Smoother blends Double‑Smoothed Stochastic (DSS) with Adaptive Super Smoother (Ehlers) filtering. The result is a clean momentum oscillator that adapts to volatility and reduces whipsaw in MetaTrader 4.

What it shows

• DSS core (two‑stage stochastic) for smoother momentum waves.
• Adaptive Super Smoother filter that auto‑adjusts to market speed (less lag vs classic MA filters).
• OB/OS bands (e.g., 80/20), 50 midline, and optional signal/trigger line.
• (Optional) arrows/alerts — crosses of trigger/50, OB/OS exits, and slope flips.

Trade ideas

1. Flip → first pullback: after a 50‑line cross up, buy the first shallow pullback while DSS holds > 40–45 (mirror for shorts).
2. Trend‑aligned dips: in an uptrend, use DSS hooks up from 40–50 as continuation entries; take profits into 80–90.
3. Range fades: when regime is flat, fade exhausted 80–90 spikes back toward 50/midline.
4. (Optional) Divergence check: confirm with price HH/HL or LL/LH vs DSS slope.

Inputs that matter

• DSS periods — sensitivity of the stochastic stages.
• Adaptive Smoother length — smoothness vs lag.
• Levels — OB/OS (80/20 by default), midline 50.
• Alerts — crosses, exits, slope changes.
• Colors/widths — fast visual read.

Suggested usage

• M5–M15: momentum flips and pullbacks.
• M30–H4: swing continuations; flip → pullback → resume.
• Daily+: bias/regime map.
