Halfmoku - Straight Forward Scalping System

(Disclosure: I Only Use Tradingview - indicators should be easy enough to obtain) (Disclosure: I've only been trading this for two weeks)

This system takes advantage of 2 REALLY strong confirmation tools, and one of the most under rated signals of all time. Ichimoku Signals! Halftrend, and HeikinAshi Candles will be our 2 confirmation biases

We also use a pretty unique scalping exit strategy that helps traders stay in a good space physiologically.

The system performs best on the 1 Hour Time Frame, and have only tested this on NAS100 futures. ( very fast and volatile asset)

Rules for Buy Entry (reverse for selling positions)

1: Price must be above Half Trend

2: Candlestick must be Blue. (Could also avoid entries on indecisions bars for more filtering - depends on how often you like to scalp)

3: Wait for Ichimoku Buy Signal

4 (Exit strategy): Set stop loss at low f previous bar. If the following 1HR bar closes in profit, exit the trade, or put a very tight trailing stop loss. There will be many opportunities to trade throughout the day and minimizing time in the market will greatly increase your win percentage with this strategy.

Here are the indicators I've been using for the system:


Ichimoko Signals (removed everything but the signal)

HalfTrend: (Amplitude set to 4)

TradingView's Bars set to Heikin Ashi.

Going to sleep now, will post some examples tomorrow. Excited to see how the community can help turn this into an even more insane system

hi burnestgeyer can you share your whole model setup here with me, thank you.

what do you mean? The entire model of the system is in the first post?

in my experience these type of systems dont work in a long period of time.. now its ur job to either think im talking BS or not and if im not find out why i said what i said.

I’ve been doing a lot of testing without the HA Candles too, if you look at the last few trades on NAS100, you can see the last 10 trades won.


Either type of candle is fine, just make sure it’s blue or bullish in a buy, and above half trend.

I agree, but there’s a different type of edge here.

the exit strategy is quite impactful in the longevity in a system. Lots of systems have great entry criteria, but struggle to exit profitably.

i got inspiration from a well respected ichimoku master and tailored a scalping strategy around it.

I’ve been having my best trading in recent years with this system so take it as is

Go look for yourself -> NAS100, 1HR, Half trend, Ichimoku Signal, and Bias bar color


Just endlessly scroll back and look at the win to loss ratio.

remove the headache of trying to milk each trade …

if we are in profit on candle close - we exit.

I think I will remove HA criteria, and just keep color candle criteria.

results are very good here’s a screenshot show the scope of the accuracy

Hi and thanks for your idea.
What I see testing 2021 is that several big losses kill many small profits. What about some trailing logic to incorporate?

Understandable, I’d say if the prior candle has a large wick and you’re concerned about price moving against you , I’d set a trailing stop. But if your stop loss is relatively small or normal, if just let it go. You want to give the trade room to breathe in m my opinion

they’re free indicators on TradingView, just download TradingView and add the indicators to your chart

I will do some testing on forex pairs and post some results

Look at last 10 trades on EURUSD. So many filters, I love high accuracy.

3 winners and 7 filtered and 0 losers


halftrend + color bias and amazing…add in the best entry signal in trading and you have your most profitable system - go look

#1-4 Filtered
# 5-6 Winners
#7-9 you see the rest

Yes the system will filter winners … ofc. It comes with the territory

Trading futures there’s virtually no spread just fee per lot, and the market moves A LOT. So it’s very easy to take big profit on 1HR. Please adjust your lot size accordingly.

if you have big spreads and try to trade this on slow forex pairs, results will be worse

Forex pairs move a lot slower, try the strategy on 1 Day instead looks really good

everything depends on asset and time frame.. tweak your settings accordingly

You could remove color bias and take trades long even if bar closed red… however make stop loss the half trend

same exit
