MAD Z Robust Burst [forexobroker]

491
MAD Z Robust Burst computes a Median Absolute Deviation z-score: MAD-Z = (close - median) / (1.4826 * MAD), where MAD = median(|x - median|). The 1.4826 factor makes MAD a consistent estimator of stdev under normality. Robust to outliers — a single price spike does not inflate the divisor like ordinary stdev does. Visual signature: outlined-only square markers (no fill), MAD bands.

🔶 ALGORITHM

1. window = last N closes.
2. med = median(window).
3. abs_dev[k] = |close[k] - med|.
4. MAD = median(abs_dev).
5. MAD-Z = (close - med) / (1.4826 * MAD).
6. Burst regime when |MAD-Z| > threshold.
7. Return-from-burst entry: signal fires when MAD-Z comes back below the return threshold from a burst.

🔶 SIGNAL LOGIC

- Buy: prior burst-down AND MAD-Z >= -return-threshold AND not already long AND cooldown elapsed AND barstate.isconfirmed.
- Sell: prior burst-up AND MAD-Z <= +return-threshold.
- Position-lock state machine.

🔶 INPUTS

- MAD Window (default 40)
- Burst Z entry start (default 2.0)
- Return Z entry fire (default 1.0)
- Cooldown Bars (default 4)
- Visual: dashboard, glow, MAD bands, outlined markers, buy / sell colors

🔶 ALERTS

MZB Buy, MZB Sell, MZB Any Signal, MZB Burst Up, MZB Burst Down, MZB Extreme, MZB Return Up, MZB Return Down, MZB Webhook JSON.

🔶 LIMITATIONS

- MAD is robust but slower-reacting than stdev; bursts may persist a bit longer before being detected.
- The 1.4826 normalisation assumes Gaussian-like distributions; for heavy-tailed assets the conversion is approximate.
- Outlined squares (no glow stack) is a deliberate visual choice — the indicator looks unique but has slightly lower visibility than filled markers.
- Return-from-burst entry is mean-reversion oriented; not for breakout players.
