Indicator Spotlight: TCL Super RSI
Most traders use the RSI with the default 14-period on every chart. Here's the problem:

1. On M1/M5, a 14-period RSI is too slow — you see the overbought signal 3 candles late
2. On D1/W1, a 14-period RSI is too noisy — false signals in strong trends

TCL Super RSI fixes this automatically:
Your ChartRSI Period UsedWhy
M1–M5 (Scalping)7–9Catches micro-exhaustion instantly
M15–H1 (Day Trading)14–21Filters session noise, catches real moves
H4–D1 (Swing)28–50Smoothed "Trend Power" line — holds winners longer
Quick Strategy: The Pullback Entry

1. In an uptrend, wait for the RSI to pull back to the Blue zone (40–50)
2. If it bounces back UP without hitting Orange (<30) — that's a continuation buy
3. Works best on H1/H4

How do you pick which currency pair to trade?

Most traders just open their "usual" pair and hope for the best. But what if you could see the EXACT strength of every currency before placing a trade?
TCL Power Meter scans all 8 major currencies in real-time:
Above 60 = Strong (buy this currency) 40–60 = Neutral (avoid — choppy markets) Below 40 = Weak (sell this currency)
The strategy is simple: Find the strongest currency (e.g., GBP = 82) Find the weakest currency (e.g., JPY = 19) Trade that pair → Buy GBPJPY
Why does this work? You're pairing maximum buying pressure against maximum selling pressure. It's like swimming WITH the current instead of against it.
Golden rule: Never trade "Neutral vs Neutral" — both scores 40–60 means directionless, choppy price action.
Analyzes all 28 cross-pairs Aggregated RSI logic (not just pip change) Works on any timeframe 100% FREE

Are You Accidentally Doubling Your Risk?
One of the most common mistakes I see traders make — especially those running 2-3 trades at once — is accidentally taking the same trade twice without realizing it.
Here's what I mean:
If you're long EURUSD and long GBPUSD at the same time, you might think you have 2 independent trades. But both are essentially "short USD" trades. If the Dollar strengthens, BOTH positions lose.
TCL Correlation Matrix shows you the real-time correlation between all 28 major pairs:
CorrelationWhat It MeansExample
+80 to +100Basically the same trade — you're doubling risk!EURUSD & GBPUSD often +85
+30 to +80Somewhat related — be cautious with lot sizingEURUSD & AUDUSD
-30 to +30Truly independent trades EURUSD & USDJPY
-80 to -100Opposite trades — you're hedging, not profitingEURUSD & USDCHF
Quick rules:

1. Never hold 2 positions on pairs with correlation above +75 (unless intentional)
2. If you want true diversification, only trade pairs in the -30 to +30 range
3. If two pairs are -90 or lower, you're basically hedging yourself to zero profit

This one tool can save you from blowing an account on what you thought were "diversified" trades.

Stop Trading Random Pairs — Here's How to Find Today's Best Setup
One of the biggest mistakes retail traders make: opening the same pair every day out of habit. EURUSD might look "fine" — but what if GBP is 3x stronger than EUR today?
Here's the systematic approach I use every morning:
Step 1 — Check Currency Strength (TCL Power Meter)
Open Power Meter on any chart. It scans all 28 cross-pairs and scores each currency 0–100:
CurrencyScoreStatus
GBP78 Strong
USD65 Moderate-Strong
EUR52 Neutral
AUD45 Neutral
JPY22 Weak
Step 2 — Pair the Strongest vs Weakest
GBP (78) vs JPY (22) = GBPJPY Long — maximum momentum alignment.
Step 3 — Confirm with TCL Trend Radar
Check if the higher timeframes agree:

1. H1: Bullish
2. H4: Bullish
3. D1: Bullish

All 3 agree? → Green light. Take the trade.
The Rule: If Power Meter shows two currencies within 10 points of each other (e.g., EUR 52 vs AUD 48), skip that pair — it's going to chop sideways.
Both tools are free:

1. Power Meter → tradecodelabs.com/indicators/tcl-power-meter/

Weekend Education: Why Most Supply & Demand Zones Fail (And How to Fix It)
If you've been drawing supply and demand zones manually, chances are you're making one of these 3 mistakes:
Mistake #1 — Drawing zones too wide A proper demand zone isn't the entire consolidation. It's the last bearish candle before the explosive move up. That's where the institutions placed their orders.
Mistake #2 — Using zones that have already been tested A zone that price has revisited 3 times is not "strong" — it's depleted. Each touch absorbs the orders sitting there. Fresh, untested zones are where the real edge is.
Mistake #3 — Ignoring the departure move The strength of the departure candle matters. A zone followed by a small 20-pip move? Weak. A zone followed by a 150-pip explosion? That's institutional volume. Trade zones with strong departure candles only.





How TCL Auto Supply & Demand helps:

1. Auto-detects fresh zones based on price action structure
2. Distinguishes between tested and untested zones
3. Adjusts zone width to the actual order block (not the entire consolidation)
4. Works on any timeframe — per-timeframe optimization built in
5. Non-repainting

Quick strategy for Monday:

1. Mark the nearest untested demand zone on H4
2. Wait for price to drop into it
3. Switch to M15 and look for a bullish engulfing candle inside the zone
4. Entry: above the engulfing candle
5. SL: below the zone
6. TP: previous swing high

Indicator Spotlight: TCL Trend Radar — The Multi-Timeframe Alignment Tool

Here's a stat that will change how you trade:

80% of losing trades happen when your entry timeframe disagrees with the higher timeframes. You find a beautiful buy setup on M15 — perfect RSI, perfect pullback to EMA — and you enter. Price drops. You check H4... it's been bearish for 3 days. You just fought the trend.
Most traders check one chart and trade. Professionals check at least 3 timeframes before clicking a button.

TCL Trend Radar scans 8 timeframes on one dashboard — with a dual filter:




Why the dual filter matters:
Most multi-timeframe dashboards only check one thing — like whether an MA is above or below. That gives you direction, but not quality. A market can have a bullish MA crossover while trending sideways in a narrow range. That's not a real trend — that's noise.
The ADX filter solves this. If ADX is below 25, the "trend" isn't strong enough to trade — even if the MAs say it's bullish. You need BOTH direction AND momentum to confirm a tradeable trend.
The Alignment Strategy for Monday:

1. Open Trend Radar on your M5 entry chart
2. Look at the dashboard — are H1, H4, and D1 all GREEN (bullish)?
3. If yes → only take buy setups on M5 today. Ignore every sell signal.
4. If H1 = green but H4 = red → NO TRADE. Wait for alignment.
5. If all red → only look for sells, ignore every buy signal.

The strict rule: If 3+ higher timeframes disagree with your entry direction, don't enter. Period. Even if the setup "looks perfect" on your entry chart.
Common mistakes traders make with multi-timeframe analysis:
Checking too many timeframes and getting confused — You don't need all 8 to agree. Focus on H1 + H4 + D1 for day trading. M5 is your entry timeframe, NOT a filter.
Using different indicators on different timeframes — Consistency matters. Use the same MA crossover + ADX on every timeframe. Otherwise you're comparing apples to oranges.
"It was aligned 3 hours ago" — Markets change. Check alignment BEFORE every entry, not once per day.
Non-repainting. Per-timeframe optimization built in. Works on all pairs.

Strategy Guide: The Strongest vs Weakest System (Power Meter + MA Crossovers)
Most traders pick a pair and then try to figure out a direction. That's backwards.
The professional approach: find the direction FIRST, then pick the pair that fits it best.
Here's the exact 2-indicator system I use:
Step 1: Open TCL Power Meter
The Power Meter scores all 8 major currencies from 0 to 100 using aggregated RSI across all cross-pairs:
ScoreMeaningAction
80-100Extremely strong currencyBUY pairs with this currency first
60-79StrongGood buy-side candidate
40-59NeutralAVOID — choppy, no edge
20-39WeakGood sell-side candidate
0-19Extremely weakSELL pairs with this currency first
The Golden Rule: Pair the STRONGEST currency against the WEAKEST.
Example: If GBP = 82 and JPY = 15, your best trade today is Buy GBPJPY. You're stacking the strongest bull against the weakest bear. Maximum momentum in your favor.
What NOT to do: Trade EUR (52) vs USD (48). Both are neutral. That pair will chop sideways all day and stop you out in both directions.
Step 2: Switch to that pair's chart and add TCL MA Crossovers
Now you know WHAT to trade and WHICH direction. But you still need a precise entry.
TCL MA Crossovers gives you the timing:
Your TimeframeSuggested Fast MASuggested Slow MAType
M5 (Scalping)821EMA
H1 (Day Trading)2050EMA
H4 (Swing)50200SMA
The Entry:

1. Power Meter tells you Buy GBPJPY
2. Switch to GBPJPY H1
3. Wait for EMA 20 to cross ABOVE EMA 50
4. Enter on the first pullback to the 20 EMA after the cross
5. SL: Below the most recent swing low
6. TP: 1.5x to 2x your stop loss distance

Why this combo destroys single-indicator strategies:
The Power Meter solves the "what to trade" problem. Most traders waste hours staring at 8 pairs trying to guess which one will move. The meter tells you in 2 seconds.
The MA Crossover solves the "when to enter" problem. Even if you know GBPJPY is bullish, entering at a random moment gets you bad fills. The crossover + pullback gives you a precise, low-risk entry.
Together: right pair + right timing = consistent results.
3 rules to follow with this system:
Rule 1: Only trade pairs where one currency scores above 65 AND the other below 35. Minimum 30-point gap between them. Less than that = not enough separation.
Rule 2: Don't trade if 5 or more currencies are in the 40-60 neutral zone. That means the entire market is ranging. Wait for clear separation.
Rule 3: Re-check the Power Meter every 4 hours. Currency strength shifts throughout the day. What was strong at London open might be neutral by NY.
Both indicators are 100% free. Non-repainting.

Free Tool Friday: TCL Correlation Matrix — The Risk Tool You're Not Using
Here's a scenario that happens to traders every single week:
You're long EURUSD. It's going well, up 30 pips. You check GBPUSD and see a similar buy setup forming. "Perfect," you think, "I'll take this one too." Now you have two trades running.
Then the USD spikes on unexpected data. Both trades crash. You take two full losses instead of one.
The problem? EURUSD and GBPUSD have a correlation of +85 to +95 most of the time. They move almost identically. Your "two trades" were actually one trade with double the risk.
This is the hidden risk most traders never see.
TCL Correlation Matrix solves it in one glance.
It scans 42 symbols in real-time and shows the correlation coefficient between every pair:
CorrelationWhat It MeansWhat You Should Do
+90 to +100Almost identical movementNEVER have both trades open in the same direction — you're doubling risk
+50 to +89Similar movementBe cautious — partial overlap in risk
0 to +49Low or no correlation Safe to trade both — genuinely independent
-50 to -1Move in opposite directionsPotential hedge — useful for risk reduction
-90 to -100Mirror opposites (like EURUSD vs USDCHF)Trading both in same direction = hedging yourself (cancelling profit)
The pairs that TRICK you into doubling risk:
These pairs look different on your chart but are actually the same trade:
Pair APair BTypical CorrelationHidden Risk
EURUSDGBPUSD+85 to +95Both are "short USD" trades
AUDUSDNZDUSD+90 to +97Both are "Oceanic vs USD"
EURJPYGBPJPY+85 to +93Both are "short JPY" trades
USDCADUSDCHF+60 to +80Both are "long USD" trades
EURUSDUSDCHF-90 to -98If you buy both, you're hedged = zero profit
The Weekend Risk Check (do this every Friday):

1. Open TCL Correlation Matrix
2. Look at your open trades — are any pairs correlated above +75?
3. If yes, you have CONCENTRATED risk. Reduce position size on one of them.
4. If you're holding trades into Monday, check for upcoming news on the correlated currency (both trades will react to it)

Quick strategy: Diversified basket trading
Instead of taking 3 trades on correlated pairs, build a portfolio of LOW-correlation trades:

1. Trade 1: GBPJPY (GBP strength play)
2. Trade 2: AUDUSD (commodity play)
3. Trade 3: USDCAD (oil correlation play)

Check the Correlation Matrix — GBPJPY vs AUDUSD = typically +10 to +30 (almost no correlation). GBPJPY vs USDCAD = typically -20 to +20. These are GENUINELY different trades. One loss won't wipe out the others.

Weekend Education: Why 90% of Traders Draw Supply & Demand Zones Wrong (And How to Fix It)

Supply and demand trading is one of the most powerful approaches in forex. But most traders are drawing their zones incorrectly — and wondering why price blows right through them.
Here are the 3 mistakes killing your supply & demand trades:
Mistake #1 — Drawing zones too wide
A proper demand zone isn't the entire consolidation area. It's the last bearish candle before the explosive move up. That's where the institutional orders were placed. When you draw the entire consolidation as your zone, you're including areas where NO orders were placed. Your zone becomes so wide that price can "touch" it and still be 50 pips from the actual order level.
The fix: The zone should only cover the body of the last opposing candle before the impulse move. Tight zones = precise entries.
Mistake #2 — Using zones that have already been tested
A zone that price has revisited 3 times is not "strong" — it's depleted. Each time price returns to a zone, it absorbs the resting orders. By the third touch, most institutional orders have been filled. The zone is empty.
Here's how zone strength actually works:
Zone StatusWhat It MeansTrade Quality
Fresh (untested)Institutional orders still sitting there Highest probability
Tested onceSome orders absorbed, some remain Proceed with caution
Tested 2+ timesMost orders depleted Avoid — zone is weak
BrokenPrice closed through the zoneZone is dead — becomes opposite type (SBR/RBS)
Mistake #3 — Ignoring the departure move
The strength of a zone is determined by what happens AFTER the zone forms. This is the departure move — the impulse candle that leaves the zone.
A zone followed by a 20-pip gradual drift? Weak. No urgency. A zone followed by a 150-pip explosion in one candle? That's institutional money deploying. The orders at that zone were MASSIVE.
How to measure departure strength: The impulse move from the zone should be at least 1.5x the 14-period ATR of that timeframe. Anything less isn't worth trading.
The weekend exercise:
Pull up any chart. Draw supply and demand zones using ONLY these rules:

1. Zone = last opposing candle body only (not the whole consolidation)
2. Mark whether it's fresh or tested
3. Check the departure move — was it at least 1.5x ATR?
4. Only trade fresh zones with strong departures

If you want this automated, TCL Auto Supply & Demand does all of this for you. It auto-detects zones on any timeframe, color-codes fresh vs tested zones, and filters by departure strength — so you only see the zones that actually matter.

Education: The 61.8% Fibonacci Level — Why It Works and How Professionals Actually Trade It
Fibonacci retracements are one of the most used tools in forex — and one of the most misused. Most traders draw a Fib from random highs to random lows, stare at the 61.8% line, and hope for a bounce.
That's not how it works. Here's the proper framework:
Why Fibonacci levels work (it's not magic):
The 61.8% retracement isn't mystical. It works because large institutional algorithms are programmed to enter positions in "discount" zones — typically between the 50% and 78.6% retracement of the prior move. When enough algorithms and traders watch the same level, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The key levels and what they mean:
Fibonacci LevelWhat It Tells YouHow to Use It
23.6%Very shallow pullbackStrong momentum — enter on a minor dip if the trend is powerful
38.2%Normal pullback in a strong trendLook for confirmation. If price bounces here, the trend is healthy
50.0%Start of the "Golden Zone"Institutions begin scaling into positions here
61.8%The "Golden Ratio"Highest-probability reversal zone. If it holds = trend continuation likely
78.6%Deep retracementLast chance before potential trend failure. Tight stop required
100%Full retracementThe move is completely erased. Original trend may be dead
The "Golden Zone" strategy (50% to 61.8%):
Most professional entries happen in this zone. Here's the framework:

1. Identify a clear impulse move (strong directional candle or series of candles)
2. Draw Fibonacci from the swing low to swing high (for bullish) or high to low (for bearish)
3. Wait for price to pull back into the 50%-61.8% zone
4. Look for a reversal signal inside this zone (engulfing, pin bar, or strong close)
5. Enter with SL below the 78.6% level
6. TP1 at the previous swing high (100% extension), TP2 at the 161.8% extension

The 3 mistakes most traders make with Fibonacci:
Mistake #1 — Drawing from the wrong swing points: You need to draw from a SIGNIFICANT swing high to swing low — not just any random peak and valley. If the swing isn't meaningful, the Fib levels won't be meaningful either.
Mistake #2 — Using Fibonacci alone: Fibonacci works best as CONFLUENCE. A 61.8% retracement that lines up with a supply/demand zone, an order block, or a moving average? That's a much stronger level than the 61.8% by itself.
Mistake #3 — Drawing Fibonacci in choppy markets: Fibonacci retracements only work in trending markets. If the market is ranging sideways, there's no impulse move to retrace FROM. You'll get false levels everywhere.
How to avoid Mistake #3: Check the ADX (Average Directional Index). If ADX > 20, there's a real trend. If ADX < 20, the market is ranging — don't use Fibonacci.
If you want this automated: TCL Auto Fibonacci draws retracements and extensions automatically using the most relevant swing points. It has 3 modes — Short Term (scalping), Medium Term (day trading), and Long Term (swing) — plus an ADX filter that only draws levels when there's actual trend momentum. Interactive history navigation lets you scroll through past swings for backtesting.

Comparison: Default MT4 RSI vs TCL Super RSI — What You're Missing

Attached Image (click to enlarge)

Attached File(s)

TCL-SUPER-RSI V1.2 Indicator (1).zip   207 KB | 63 downloads

The RSI is the most popular indicator in trading. Over 70% of retail traders have it on their charts. But almost everyone is using it with a critical flaw — and MT4's default RSI is the reason.
The flaw: RSI(14) is designed for the Daily chart.
When you apply a 14-period RSI to a 1-minute chart, you're using math designed for 14 DAYS of data on 14 MINUTES of data. The lag is enormous. By the time the RSI shows "oversold" on M1, the move is already over and you're chasing.
On the other end, applying RSI(14) to a Weekly chart makes it TOO noisy. It generates false overbought/oversold signals during perfectly healthy trends — causing you to exit winning trades early.
Here's a direct comparison:
FeatureDefault MT4 RSITCL Super RSI
PeriodFixed 14 — same on every timeframeAuto-adapts: 7-9 on M1-M5, 14-21 on M15-H1, 28-50 on H4-Monthly
ColorSingle purple line3-zone coloring: Green (overbought), Orange (oversold), Blue (neutral)
Speed on M1-M5Too slow — misses scalping entriesFast engine catches micro-exhaustion
Noise on H4-D1Too noisy — false reversals in trendsSmoothed engine ignores minor pullbacks
DivergenceNone — you draw it manuallyAuto-detection built in
Visual clarityRead the number on the scale every timeColor tells you the state instantly
AlertsNonePop-up, push notification, email, sound
Why the auto-adaptive period matters in practice:
Scenario 1 — Scalping EURUSD on M5:

1. Default RSI(14): Shows RSI at 55. Looks neutral. You hesitate.
2. TCL Super RSI (auto 7-period): Shows RSI at 72 in GREEN. You immediately see momentum is stretched. You wait for the pullback instead of chasing.
3. Result: Default RSI was 3 candles late. By the time it showed overbought, the reversal already happened.

Scenario 2 — Swing trading GBPUSD on D1:

1. Default RSI(14): Hits 72 (overbought). You close your long position.
2. TCL Super RSI (auto 35-period): Shows RSI at 58 in BLUE. The trend is healthy — just a normal pullback.
3. Result: You stayed in the trade. Price continued 200 pips higher.

The takeaway: One RSI setting cannot serve every timeframe. A 14-period RSI on M1 is mathematically wrong. A 14-period RSI on Monthly is mathematically wrong. Only the Daily chart gets the "correct" reading — and most traders aren't even on the Daily.
The 3-zone color system:
This is a UX improvement that sounds small but changes how you read charts:
Green = Overbought zone (>70): Look for shorts or take profit on longs Orange = Oversold zone (<30): Look for longs or accumulate Blue = Neutral/trending: Hold current positions, don't fight the flow
Your brain processes color instantly. With the default purple line, you're constantly checking the scale number — that's cognitive load you don't need during fast-moving markets.

Friday Challenge: What's the Strongest and Weakest Currency on Your Charts Right Now?
Happy Friday, traders. Quick exercise before you close out the week:
Look at the 8 major currencies right now — USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, NZD, CAD, CHF.
Which one is the strongest? Which one is the weakest?
If you can answer those two questions with confidence, you already know which pair has the best trade opportunity today.
Here's why this matters:
Most traders pick a pair and THEN try to find a direction. That's backwards.
Professional traders start with currency strength — they find which single currency is dominant and which is collapsing, then pair them together. The result? A trade with momentum on both sides of the pair.




Example from this week:
If GBP is scoring 82/100 (strong) and JPY is scoring 22/100 (weak):

1. GBP is strong → it's pushing UP against everything
2. JPY is weak → it's losing against everything
3. GBPJPY = double momentum → highest probability long setup of the week

Meanwhile, a pair like AUDNZD where both currencies score 48-52? That's neutral vs neutral — choppy, directionless, and a recipe for stop-outs.
The framework:
SetupCurrency ACurrency BProbability
IdealStrong (>70)Weak (<30)Highest — momentum on both sides
GoodStrong (>60)Neutral (40-60)Good — one-sided momentum
AvoidNeutral (40-60)Neutral (40-60)Low — choppy, no direction
AvoidStrong (>60)Strong (>60)Low — tug of war, unpredictable
I use the TCL Power Meter to check all 8 currencies at a glance before every session. It scans all 28 cross-pairs using RSI and gives each currency a score from 0-100.
Green (>60) = Strong. Orange (<40) = Weak. Blue (40-60) = Neutral. Skip the neutral ones.

Pivot Points Explained: The Only Indicator That Tells You EXACTLY Where Price Will React Today

Before algorithms, before indicators, before retail trading existed — floor traders at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange used ONE tool to navigate each trading day: Pivot Points.
They'd calculate a single number from yesterday's high, low, and close. That number was the "pivot" — the balance point of the market. Above it? Bullish day. Below it? Bearish day.
Decades later, this same math is still embedded in institutional algorithms, and it still works. Here's why:
The Pivot Point Formula (Classic):
Pivot Point (PP) = (High + Low + Close) / 3 R1 = (2 × PP) - Low S1 = (2 × PP) - High R2 = PP + (High - Low) S2 = PP - (High - Low)
That's it. Five levels calculated from just three numbers. And price respects them more often than almost any other indicator because everyone is watching them — banks, algorithms, and retail traders all have the same levels on their charts.
Here's how professional day traders use them:
LevelWhat It MeansHow to Trade
PP (Pivot)The balance point — today's "magnet"If price opens above PP → bullish bias. Below → bearish bias.
R1First resistance targetTake profit on longs, or look for reversal shorts
S1First support targetTake profit on shorts, or look for reversal longs
R2Extended resistance — trending dayOnly reached on strong trending days (3-4× per month)
S2Extended support — trending dayMajor support — often the day's absolute low
The strategy that still works:

1. Mark today's PP, R1, S1, R2, S2 before the session
2. If price opens above PP → look for longs on dips to S1
3. If price opens below PP → look for shorts on rallies to R1
4. First target = the Pivot Point itself (it acts as a magnet)
5. Extended target = R2/S2 on trending days

What most traders don't know — there are 4 different pivot formulas:
ModeBest ForHow It Differs
ClassicDay trading — the standardEqual weight to H, L, C
FibonacciSwing tradingUses 38.2% and 61.8% ratios for S/R
WoodieTrend followersExtra weight to the CLOSE
CamarillaScalpers and range fadersTighter levels — designed for fading extremes
Most traders only know Classic. But Camarilla pivots are a hidden gem for scalpers — the levels are tighter and specifically designed for mean reversion trades within the day's range.
I use TCL Auto Pivot Points which lets you switch between all 4 modes on-chart and auto-detects the right timeframe (daily pivots on H1, weekly on H4, monthly on D1).

Weekly Update — April 7, 2026
How Many Triangle Breakouts Did You Miss Last Week? Probably More Than You Think.
Triangles (ascending, descending, and symmetrical) are some of the most reliable chart patterns in forex. Studies show they resolve in the expected direction 60-75% of the time.
The problem? They're hard to spot in real-time. By the time most traders draw the trendlines, the breakout already happened.
Here's what a triangle breakout setup looks like and why automation matters:
The 3 Triangle Types:
PatternStructureBreakout DirectionWin Rate
Ascending TriangleFlat top + rising lowsBullish breakout (75%)Higher probability
Descending TriangleFlat bottom + falling highsBearish breakout (72%)Higher probability
Symmetrical TriangleConverging highs and lowsEither direction (50/50)Direction of the prior trend
Why most traders fail at triangle trading:

1. They draw the lines AFTER the breakout — too late
2. They confuse wedges with triangles — different patterns
3. They enter on the first touch of a trendline — no confirmation
4. They miss triangles entirely because they're focused on one pair

What the auto-scanner does differently:
TCL Auto Triangles scans ALL your open charts simultaneously, finds forming triangles, draws them in real-time, and alerts you BEFORE the breakout. It detects all 3 types and can differentiate between a triangle and a wedge.
Key features: Auto-detects ascending, descending, and symmetrical triangles Draws trendlines and breakout levels automatically Alerts before the breakout — popup, push, email, or sound Works on any pair and any timeframe Free — no limitations
