In plain terms

Take any base trend signal and turn it OFF for several days around earnings dates, where price reactions are too noisy/unfair to the rule.

How it works

This generator pairs a base trend signal with an earnings-blackout filter: no entries within ±N bars of an earnings announcement, where IV/realized mismatch typically washes out edge. Base signal is a simple 200-day moving-average trend, gated off during earnings-blackout windows of 3 or 7 trading days on either side of the announcement.
