blackFLAG FTS - SwingArm Trend Indicator using ATRTrailing Stop and Fibonacci Retracements

[cfw238]

@greygoose Scan works but the alert doesn't

Imported alert link from post 1, study didn't completely go through.

That's really interesting... I have previously created a similar strategy but gave up on it because I had distracting colors on the hull and the bubbles had way to much text. This is a much improved version, never thought of just using the HMA lenghts as the bubble text. Thanks for the share. @bcnhill

@bcnhill assuming you buy at the 55 and sell at the 21?...taking into account the swing arm color.

@Huffmac90 , could you kindly confirm your strategy with the swing arm zones and zigzag indicator like you mentioned in a previous post, screenshots and some explanations will help, thanks.

Take your pick.

Pick a zone 4 of any chart and take the trade. It is all about finding your trading edge. Zone 4 is the trading edge for this system. Some times it works sometimes it does not. It is all about probabilities. And the probabilities are in your favor, so, paper trade until you find what works for you. Then, walk before you run. Enjoy the journey.
The more you understand price action, the better. Timing is everything in trading. So, taking trades at the slow times of the day will cause you to be tested and possibly be stopped out. Experience comes from hours of studying setups. Some work, some do not. You just have to take them all, in the long run, it works out in your favor due to a proper risk-reward.

Regardless of what you decide to do, nothing will replace experience.

Keep in mind that any zone 4 will have a counter-trend timeframe coming against you when they are not all trending in the same direction. So, you must take profits accordingly.

@mini @Billions Unfortunately, there is not scan alert for the zone 4s. You can get an alert when the swingarm does break up or down. Then you must set up your orders after that. The code is at the beginning of this thread.

@greygoose Yes, the links work in setting up the scanner, but now the issue lies in setting up the alerts.

@greygoose Yes, the links work in setting up the scanner, but now the issue lies in setting up the alerts.

if you already imported the scan...open it as a watch list....it will already be there under one of the personal ones as long as you have the scan saved already....then tell the watchlist to alert you when tickers change... when it is set as a watchlist, just left click on the name and the menu will pop up...go down to the alert with the bell icon next to it and set it as you want and how you want to be alerted....apologies if I am misunderstanding though

thanks @baxtr and everyone else.

I'm having an issue w/ discrepancy between the watchlist and the chart. My /es is showing zone 2 in the watch list on 10min but when I open the 10min chart it's above zone by a decent amount. This wasn't happening to me before. Anyone else having this issue?

Edit: Solved my problem. After hours wasn't enabled on my charts. THanks for the great work everyone

 

[mattarmstrong88]

How would I create an alert/scan/ or watchlist that tells me if swing arms broke within last X amount of bars

 

[BenTen]

@mattarmstrong88 Please go through this thread and you should be able to see the instructions for them. Also, check our YouTube channel.

@BenTen I watched all the swingarm vids. I attempted to do the minor adjustments myself but no luck so I'll explain what I'm tryng to accomplish. Watch list Column 1- swingarm broke within last 10 bars (10min timeframe). Column 2 -price has entered zone 2 (10 min time frame). Column 3- price has entered zone 3 (10 min time frame). Column 4 price has entered zone 4 (10 min timframe). Thx in advance if anyone else can help me out aswell. If true it should show a 1.0. If false should show a 0

Hi FJR1300, does this work with daily time frames? also does it only apply to futures? would it work for Stocks and currencies?
