I downloaded your script and have some questions. What history does closed orders refer to? What about Wins, and last signal? I am attaching a few charts. I appreciate all your posted scripts and comments and have downloaded many.
The breakdown of those labels is on page one TS post... how many closed orders is the number of: buys and sells for however long your chart goes back - wins is the % of those buys and sells that were winning trades - the reason for the last trade label is due to the version you are using (TS_V9_Filtered) has 3 aggregations to filter the signals (basically if the lower tf agrees with a higher but more explination on page one) anyway long story short because there are less arrows I added the label as at times it is off screen
 
They are on page one under the "Entry Methods" section but I'll take a few new ones

More EMAD entry examples here: https://usethinkscript.com/threads/...-all-be-all-for-thinkorswim.15257/post-125163

Zone entry method (3 step) here https://usethinkscript.com/threads/...-all-be-all-for-thinkorswim.15257/post-125164

is there a scanner for this indicator
which one? Each indicator used is shown individually on page one if you need to reference the name of the study. I personally do not use scans but there are scans for some of them if you let me know which one you are looking for. (ill work on posting some to page 1 soon)
 
Hello good people... Been trading futures lately on the 1 min chart using ATR Dashboard with 10 aggregations (gotta be VIP cannot share)... I have tried many MTF studies that lag like crazy and this one I do not even notice lag. Also while it certainly can repaint I have not noticed it... at least not near enough to give me a false alarm if that makes sense as there are other TFs to confirm. you will notice TS_V9 is not on this chart ase the ATR lower is similar but does not clutter the chart (if i were to use it in a similar manner, not to mention all the awesome features for the lables and levels etc. would cause lag like crazy with so many aggregations)... That being said GO VIP PEOPLE also I am Still a TS_V9 fan boy.

Also as noted in the image below EMAD entry method, Vix Alert, Key Levels, Previous OB OS levels, Wrapping, and HR Volume... all killing it. Also (i left out notations on the chart for this) Big7 gray candles to alert a potential reversal and the white arrows filtered by TMO...beautiful.

Alright this might be impossible but i swear you can find 300%+ gainers weekly if this can be done, i would need a scan that shows when the Stops appear on the 1hr chart
