1. Strategy Overview & Mechanics

Reversal Detection Logic

The indicator filters out time-based noise by analyzing pure TLB Price Action blocks. A Buy reversal signal triggers when current close breaks above the high of the previous N blocks (configured via Reversal Sensitivity = 5). A Sell reversal triggers when price breaks below the low of the prior block sequence.

Filter Layers:
- Dual Moving Average Trend Filter: Fast EMA 50 vs. Slow EMA 200.
- MA Slope Filter: Avoids entries during flat or contrary market slope.
- Sagnac Momentum Filter: Optional confirmation filter.

Supported Instruments & Timeframes

Designed for liquid financial markets across multiple execution styles:

  • Gold & Metals: XAUUSD, XAGUSD (M1, M5, M15).
  • Indices: US30, NAS100, SPX500, GER40.
  • Forex: EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, AUDUSD (M5 to H1).
  • Crypto: BTCUSD, ETHUSD, SOLUSD (M15 to H4).

4. In-Depth Explanation of the 4 Strategy Models

Select a strategy model to view rules and execution plan

Model 1: Scaling Trailing (4 Take-Profits) - [Recommended Default]

Balanced Risk/Reward

This model divides your trade volume into 4 staged tranches. It captures quick initial gains while locking in profits and riding extended trend expansions with the remaining volume.

15%
TP1 (0.618 Fib)
Close 15% & Move SL to Breakeven ($0)
15%
TP2 (1.000 Fib)
Close 15% & Move SL to TP1 Price
30%
TP3 (1.618 Fib)
Close 30% & Move SL to TP2 Price
40%
TP4 (2.618 Fib)
Close Remaining 40% (Full Target)
  • Risk Elimination: As soon as TP1 is hit, Stop-Loss is instantly moved to the exact Entry Price (Breakeven). The trade is now 100% risk-free.
  • Profit Locking: When TP2 is reached, the Stop-Loss moves to TP1, guaranteeing positive profit even if the market reverses.
  • Ideal For: Intraday and swing trading on Forex majors (EURUSD, GBPUSD), Gold (XAUUSD), and Indices.

Model 2: Step Trailing Stop (100% Position Hold)

Maximum Impulse Capture

Maintains 100% of the initial position size throughout the entire move, trailing the protective Stop-Loss stepwise from milestone to milestone until the final TP4 level is reached.

Step 1
At TP1 Level
Move SL to Breakeven (Entry)
Step 2
At TP2 Level
Move SL to TP1 Level
Step 3
At TP3 Level
Move SL to TP2 Level
Final
At TP4 Level
Take 100% Full Profit
  • Advantage: No lot decay. If a strong trend runs to TP4, the monetary return is significantly higher than partial scaling.
  • Trade Management: You protect downside at each step without giving up position volume.
  • Ideal For: High volatility momentum days and trending market sessions.

Model 3: Target TP4 Only (Trend Runner)

High Reward:Risk (2.618 R:R)

A pure swing trend model that ignores intermediate take-profits and holds the full trade strictly until the 2.618 Fibonacci expansion (TP4) is touched.

Target Fibonacci Level: 2.618 * SL Distance
Risk-to-Reward Ratio: 1 : 2.62
Exit Rule: Either hits TP4 (+2.62 R) or initial Stop-Loss (-1.0 R).
Statistical Characteristic: Moderate win rate (~45-55%), but very high payout per win yielding consistent equity curve expansion on trending instruments.
  • Ideal For: Higher timeframes (H1, H4, D1) on Bitcoin (BTCUSD), Nasdaq (NAS100), and DAX (GER40).

Model 4: Target TP1 Only (High Probability Scalper)

High Win Rate

A specialized fast-scalping model aiming strictly for the 0.618 Fibonacci level (TP1) with 100% position size for maximum strike rate and rapid trade turnover.

Target Fibonacci Level: 0.618 * SL Distance
Execution Style: Ultra-fast in-and-out scalping.
Exit Rule: Full take-profit at TP1.
Statistical Characteristic: Exceptionally high win rate, minimal market exposure time, and low drawdown.
  • Ideal For: Low timeframes (M1, M5) on Gold (XAUUSD), US30, and GBPJPY during active London and New York sessions.

7. Frequently Asked Questions

Which timeframes are supported? [+]
The indicator works on any timeframe (from M1 to D1). However, consider the volatility rule: the more volatile the instrument (such as Gold XAUUSD, US30/NAS100 indices, or Crypto), the lower the timeframe (M1, M5, M15) you can effectively trade. For less volatile instruments (such as EURUSD), it is recommended to use higher timeframes (M15, H1, H4) with less frequent signals (i.e. reduce sensitivity via Reversal Sensitivity).
Which currency pairs and assets can be traded? [+]
You can trade on any pairs and instruments: Forex currency pairs, Metals (XAUUSD, XAGUSD), Stock Indices (US30, NAS100, SPX500, GER40), and Cryptocurrencies (BTCUSD, ETHUSD). High-volatility liquid instruments reach TP1–TP4 targets faster, whereas quieter pairs benefit from MA trend filtering.
Does the indicator repaint signals? [+]
No. Signals are generated strictly on bar close. Once a candle closes and prints an arrow, it will never disappear, shift, or repaint.
Why are only 5 boxes drawn on the chart? [+]
Version 2.7 uses a sliding ring buffer capping chart objects to 5. This maintains optimal terminal speed and eliminates chart clutter while the analytics dashboard calculates 100% of historical trades over your chosen period.
How do I adjust the dashboard timeframe window? [+]
In indicator settings under === 6. Performance Analytics & Dashboard ===, change Statistics History Period to 1 Day (Last 24H), 1 Week (7 Days), 1 Month (30 Days), 1 Year, or All History.
