I took a look at the code. It’s a completely different indicator that uses Heiken Ashi bars. Same name, but very different.

For cTrader users. Here is a set of indicators to help cTrader users apply Roadmap. The zip file contains several indicators (most with documentation) and a couple of templates that I used for setting up the workspace shown. There is a readme.txt included in the package. {image} {file}
Thanks Mike for continuously updating your indicators for ctrader fellow. appreciated.

For Traders of 1m Indices/Oil I want to highlight a way of using CompRSISelectv2 (available in post 1) that might be useful to those who trade 1m indices/oil. The indicator settings are 15/60/0/0 and you should add lines at 55 and 45. Above 55 is bullish, below 45 is bearish. It's not perfect but I think it will hopefully act as a good general guide of momentum. Do feel free to play around with settings and let me know how you get on with it. {image}
Hi Laura, once again thank you for this thread
do you recommend CompRSISelectv2 (with 55 and 45 lines) instead of RSI2/RSI9 for trading m1 gold, too?

{quote} That's perfect , would you please let me know what does numbers you use as box title (like 1:63 or ... )means?
Those numbers are label or tags linked to the information I was analyzing. Take an example of 1.26, it is both in slide 2 and 3 meaning the same line of information explains both concepts. There is nothing more fancy about them. Just ignore them
Hope this helps.

I was hoping to make a simple approach to trade one Minute Nasdaq or Dow but I get confused with all the variety springing up. More likely I have missed specific information on this thread dealing with one minute Indices trades. So - back to post one for me

Hi Laura

A bit late to the party here, but have just finished reading your, now extensive, thread. It must take a long time answering everyone's questions.........

I have been around trading a long time, but due to ill health have had to take extensive breaks, dipping back into it from time to time!
I'm a firm believer that trading is a series of probabilities, and having a great structure, such as yours, skews those probabilities your way, giving you a trading edge! Thank you for sharing it with us all...
I also have to thank you for being so patient and answering everyone in a calm and easy to understand way.

Hoping to follow along with you and your thread, and be able to add to things to it

Best wishes
Tony

It's very much a work in progress but I've set out some experimental settings for 1m indices here:

Hi Tony

Yes, maintaining the thread alongside trading full-time is demanding but my brain seems to work better when kept busy!

You are absolutely right. All we are doing is trading probabilities and trying to stack them in our favour.

Look forward to your contributions.

Thanks Laura.
Interesting approach you have. I was mulling over this 3 min SP500 chart and was struck by how the eye is drawn to price action around the band - from lower to high and vice versa. marked in circles some trades. Some fail some not. Great food for thought you have given me here.

In congestion zones it is possible to scalp from one side of the channel to the other. Problem being of course, sometimes we only realise it's a congestion zone when it's too late.

But another approach is to identify such zones on a higher timeframe and then trade it directionally on the 1m.

Hi Laura, this is maybe something I should know, but I don't normally look at the Indices. I was wondering why my DAX chart stopped on April 30. Looks like yours did too. I posted this in the journal thread by mistake.

Erm....tricky questions first eh? It was GER30 M20 June 2020 DAX Future. So possibly. Isn't this what you trade?

Yes

That contract doesn't expire until 18th June so it shouldn't have stopped already. Mine hasn't stopped.
