Its similar to the 3_level_ZZ_Semafor or you can use 3 of the ZigZags at once.

Pairs to watch for a possible short pull back on the H4. Don't jump in too soon.

I tried my hand with DB+3_level_ZZ_Semafor indicator, also added Daily/Weekly High/Lows. So I started a manual trade on a Level3 Semafor if it also breaks one of the Pivotal Highs/Lows levels, first Days results went well I used 0.01 Lot with 15/7.5 EL and 30ETP. Hit the EL twice, this is the second result:

Scalping the H1 semafor over night, will see how it does the rest of the week.

Just back from a long weekend camping... sorry no updates, very bad internet. Anyway, Here is an update on the 1 Hr HAS BO 2/16/2/20. The account has closed 4 baskets working on #5, and is up 25% since 8/20. So far so good.

The settings are as follows: All charts on 1 Hr. The HAS TS is set to HAS Direction - True, HAS - 2-16-2-20, BO true, everything else is set to false. So you get in on the HAS BO, and exit with a ADR TP .2 and EL set to 160/140 (remember this is in pips). So make sure you multiply 160 and 140 by your lot size to get the EL adjusted to you lot size. I hope I explained that clearly.

Here is an idea you scalpers can ponder.

Seems a good scalping idea, a possible variation could be to use the three bar Pivot Hi/Lo at the level 3 ZZ as your S/R box. BTW, could you tell us what your default 3 ZigZag settings are, so I can have a look at tracking it manually.

They are the default 3 Z semafor ones.

Not quite, what I meant about using the 3Bar Pivot Range so one bar before Pivot, one Bar after for the S/R box. Some traders report that this range is significant to reversal Price Action.

OK, you mean a 3 bar fractal.

Yes basically a 3-Bar Fractal (Pivot), I normally only refer to the 5-Bar pivot as a Fractal pattern, any other size Pivot patterns (3Bar, 7Bar, 9Bar etc) I call just Pivot points, but they can be also called Fractals as well. I believe Bill Williams himself said Fractals can be different sizes to the 5-Bar pattern he normally refers to.

The Robot caught one trying to sneak out of the box.

Using a SL_Pip_Lock = 5/10, 10/10, 15/8

Will probably pull back just enough to hit my SL, will see if we get anymore out of it.

Lets see where this one goes, the trailing SL has moved from the top of the box. Same settings as previous ones.

I tried this setup over the last few days and I was concerned about the fact that it does not have any protective SL settings which can allow it to runaway deep into DrawDown. This showed up in yesterdays charts where we have a number of pairs hundreds of pips in the red and not look like coming back any time soon:

So I decided to trial a variation on the theme using ADR 0.3 TP and 0.3 SL. So my idea is so long as I get more TP hit's versus SL hits I should eventually hit my target EL or ESL. My first trial went well:

I will continue with this setup over the next week to see if it continues to be effective.

PS: notice I started the new chart a few hours after US open, so it caught the new established trends from news events.
