My account is getting hammered so have stopped the HAS / SEMA / SWING with marty addons.
It can produce some real nice profits but one bad basket will wipe out all those gains and substantially more.
I have changed the TS to HAS / HAS2 setup, still using marty addons.
Not quite sure why it didn't take another sell trade late in the day.

Tried something a little different last night, I used the HAS, Swing and Semafor as a trade direction filter and then used the Fractal BO as the trigger, only trading the direction of the last confirmed possible direction change.
If this proves to work it may be part of a later version of the TS.
Will take a few more days to see if it can repeat itself over time.
Done for the day.

This account is dead in the water.
I changed settings to use both HAS & HAS2 as an entry but I did not set anything as an exit.
This was a fatal error on my part as most of the markets' action happens when I am asleep.
Will now wait for an update to try some different settings.
Have a great weekend everyone!

I am still working on some improvements to the TS and so far things are looking good, here are some things coming down the road, so keep your hat on.
1) Your choice of Break Out Lines.
Movable BO lines like previously you could place where ever you wanted.
Fractal Break Out Lines like in the HAS TS.
Break Out lines placed at the High and Low of the Signal Candle, so when the HAS, Swing and Semafor Signals agree you will get these Break Out Lines.
2) A Trade Direction Filter that when turned on activates the combination of the HAS, Swing and Semafor Signals and will allow only trades in that direction. In the Images shown only short trades would be allowed.
3) A what I call a "Cycle Length" adjustment that you can adjust to increase or shorten the candle cycle length between swing Signals, this can cut down on the number of swing signals. The standard default is 24 but for longer runs between trades I have used up to 120, it slows things down and with the direction filter will be interesting to see what happens.
I do need to run tests on these this next week and if all goes well it should be ready to publish by the end of the week along with the minor upgraded DB.
So hang on and keep trucking, I think the wait will be worth it, unless someone has already found the Holy Grail. LOL

all by some magic (?) If so I'm sure Gene is the man to prove it's existence
