In post 10,725, RH says "it can take a significant amount of chart viewing time to fully understand the RSO and its many nuances".

Here is one.

Check the image. There are 3 continuation trades on the M3 timeframe. The first two are profitable; the last one isn't. Why? Let’s look at what the 8-3-3 stochastic on the higher timeframe (M15) is doing at that moment (the 34-10-3 stochastic is hidden for better visibility):

-The 8-3-3 stoch is not following price. What is that called? (posts 9,464 and 9,963)
-The slope of the 8-3-3 stoch is downwards.
-The 8-3-3 stoch is at extreme levels (90 for bullish - 10 for bearish)

Do not blindly enter a continuation trade without checking the higher timeframe.

This mornings entry - GBPUSD The dark green and red lines are 50EMA and 100EMA, used for trend direction. Made about 500$ in a demo account risking only 1% at a time with ~700$ in positive on other trades. Thats not too bad considering it was just last night 10pm PST, 6AM PST and 10AM PST. I dont check the 2AM candle because I need my sleep {image} {image} {image}

{quote} No other confirmation tools other than in my head. I don't mark support and resistance areas but they are clear on the chart when you zoom out. Depending on where price action currently is in relation to those imaginary lines definitely plays a part in trades. Wouldn't even be able to explain it really, But i do think about support and resistance. I still use the 50 line cross. but sometimes both the stochastics cross while the RSI starts to hook the opposite way(I wont take that trade) I like when all 3 are genuinely pointing in the right...

Hi Webb1003,
Could you tell me the name of the indicator on TradingView that consists of two stochastic indicators and one RSI?”

I would like to thank the thread author and all contributors for the work and ideas shared here!
I’ve tried to put together an MT5 template and attached it for anyone who might find it useful.

Another great coder, kvak, has adapted smTMMS for MT5.
If you add his indicator to the MQL5\Indicators\TMS(r) folder and

apply the template, you will get the same result as shown in the screenshot.
The chart may look overloaded with signals but it feels easier for me to match the oscillator with the current bar this way.

Unfortunately, this is a stripped-down version of TradingView, as many exchanges do.
I use the Roscearm template for scalping on the 5-minute timeframe:

  1. EMA 5 (shift 2)
  2. HMA 10
  3. HMA 78
  4. RSI 8 with EMA 21 smoothing
  5. Stochastic 8-3-3 and 14-3-3

If there were an option to use the full TradingView, I would recommend a very powerful indicator by a forum member called CogAlpha.
If I didn’t already have free email alerts from MetaTrader, I would subscribe to TradingView signals by watchlist and use his indicator for that purpose.

intraday trading is very tough in current market conditions.
it is the smart money game at play everyday especially during the London and New York sessions .
in most cases trades don't survive the New York 0930 and 1130 volatility.
you have to pick tops and bottoms otherwise the market will take out all you small stop loss.
single entry and single exit trades will not make it.

Uhh... I think the RSO is better used in continuation, no?
I meant if Robin or another person use some indicator when the market is in range? Something to filter the trades when the market is more difficult to read...

Hi Art5, just offering general opinion/advice and maybe someone else can be more specific with a system related answer.
For mine, if “ the market is difficult to read “, that is your indicator. Find a market that’s “easier to read”. Hope you don’t find my reply flippant.
Cheers

these two charts in post#1 show choppy conditions.

take note of the timeframe

your Exit Strategy and how do you manage your trades after entries is an important factor

your Mental Strategy is key to success
