This expert advisor combines Heikin-Ashi color changes with a Keltner-style channel to time reversal entries. A color flip arms a signal, but entry waits for price to close back into or through the channel in the new direction. Signals expire after a…
This document describes a forex trading method built around a CCI oscillator smoothed with a T3-style calculation. The indicator is said to generate directional signals as it moves across the zero line. The suggested entry waits for the second red or green…

The document describes an Expert Advisor that trades when the Dots indicator changes color at a bar close. It gives a high-level entry signal rule based on that change, and notes that the strategy requires a compiled indicator file to run. A supporting…
This document describes an Expert Advisor that generates trades from the 2MoHLC indicator. At bar close, it can signal when the indicator crosses its zero level, the cloud changes color, or price breaks through the cloud; the selected trigger depends on the…
This chart indicator marks the current day's high and low, opening price, and horizontal levels across the day’s range. It calculates percentage bands at regular intervals and Fibonacci-style retracement levels, then draws them from the first bar of the day…
This document proposes a forex indicator inspired by the physics formula for linear momentum: mass multiplied by velocity. It maps mass to trade volume or tick volume, preferring tick volume because it is easier to obtain than total market-wide traded…
This document describes an Expert Advisor that uses the XMACandles indicator to generate trades. A signal occurs when a bar closes and the indicator’s candle color changes. Running the advisor requires the compiled indicator, and an auxiliary library is…
The script opens a buy and a sell market order shortly before a news release, aiming to capture a sharp move in whichever direction price breaks. The proposed setup uses stop losses so that an adverse move can close the losing side while the surviving…
This trading system opens a position when a bar closes with a caudate candlestick signal from the CaudateXPeriodCandle indicator. It can also close the position after a preset holding period, making elapsed time an explicit exit rule. The example…
