Stopped after three seasons. Even staring at charts was less boring then Gomorra, lol. I am more of a Top Boy fan. Damn, that’s what you call a good serie.

The small triangles within the body of the candle/wick are your entries, correct?

{quote} NO You enter at the opening on the Daily candle. The methodology doesn't change regardless of time frame. Ignore the triagle. It is not important. All entries regardless of time frame, is on the OPENING of the candle. No other time
I know how the indicator works, it's these triangles that interest me. They have a purpose, associated specifically with the indicator. Could you let me know what they are, or link to the indi file for investigation. Thx.

{quote} Gator, can I get your opinion on this. I applied this to the EUR/USD D1 Chart - Look at The results. For Each Buy and Sell signal, you enter the trade at the opening of the candle. The current white candle is today, April 29, 2020 Yesterday was the signal to Buy. (Thats the previous Blue Candle) April 28, 2020 This chart goes all the way back to January 23, 2020 Look at each entry and exit and calculate the pips made on exit. Its just too good to be true. Tell me what you think. Look at the pips and how long you have to hold the trade if...
Thats 1/3 of trading. Entry signals. Next is when do you admit to yourself you are wrong. Close for loss. Last one is when to TP. All are equally important.

{quote} Marco-Kanto, Open your mind. Try now to look at the chart and ignore the triangle and focus only on entering at the opening of the candle. For it to work you have to close your mind to the triangles. Remember the signal appears at the opening of the candle. The triangle you are interested in is not important. Open your mind. Respectfully. I can illiminate the Triangle and then you will have nothing to focus on but the entry signal.
Pip-Loser, respectfully, open your ears. I'm not asking you questions because I want the answer, I'd rather you tried thinking about what you're saying.

You're back testing a manual system by sight on historical charts. Many indicators work retrospectively. But the fractal indicator is a lagging indicator. It's not going to signal until a chart pattern has formed. Take the signal circled in green on your chart, that didn't magically appear at the close of the previous candle. It wouldn't be until the current candle pushed below the low of the previous, which seems to be indicated by the triangles. So your signals look nice and obvious on a historical chart, but they don't actually appear until the candle formation completes.

I hope it works for you. But you also state that you're running with no defined risk. I can see a few instances on the charts you've posted you'd be chasing your tail if you were to follow the indi.

{quote} To prove your theory wrong: Wouldn't all the other candles along the way then have an indicator arrow to sell or buy?
Of course not, only those that are part of a specific candle pattern.

So why not take the trade when the signal appears, rather than waiting for the next candle?

{quote} Got more signals on the smaller timeframe and missed them because we are conversing.
It's very odd that you can miss a signal. Surely you just check each timeframe you're interested in trading as the candle completes. Your magic indicator will, or will not appear. If your indi appears with a directional signal at the close of a candle you know exactly when it will, or will not appear. And therefor exactly when to look.
