What's the best Scalping Trend indicator (In Your Opinion).

[METAL]

Hey all, I have tried so many indicators, I have forgot more than I can remember. I would like to know what you guys use. Preferably a lower but upper will do. I am using it on low time frames 1m to 3m. Thanks in advance.

is as good charting for scalping that you will find?

So far testing this week the B_Xtender_Chande_OSC_V4
https://usethinkscript.com/threads/b-xtender-momentum-plus-chande-directional-momo.22412/
script has been 100% wins on the last 8 trades. Running 0DTE on the 5 minute chart following a list of 4 to 5 rules on entries and exits. One example today was playing the QQQ - had entry signal at 9:10am with ATM call bought for $3.82 and exit signal at 11:10am for exit sell of $5.64. Did not trade the Q's the rest of the day. 47.6% R
TSLA today had entry ATM call at 9:50am for $26.42 and out at 11:35 for $29.30, did not trade TSLA the rest of day. 11% R

Another promising one is the EMA 9 / 21 ATR Entry + Exit + Action + Arrow Signals
# stand-alone combined w/helper
This is a stand-alone ThinkorSwim helper that turns the 9/21 EMA framework into a heads-up panel by classifying ATR-normalized spread quality, current hold/trim/exit state, and a simple action posture, while plotting only selective first-occurrence arrows for high-value bull/bear entries, warnings, and hard exits. It’s built to keep the chart readable and summarize whether the trend is early, ideal, mature, stretched, failing, or worth waiting on.
I am running this currently on the paper trading TOS platform. It looks to offer signals later than the B_Xtender_Chande_OSC_V4 script due to validations and it exits later for the same reason. So far it looks very good.

Both the B_Xtender_Chande_OSC_V4 script and the EMA 9 / 21 ATR Entry + Exit + Action + Arrow Signals script are not set it and forget it indicators. Both require reading the overall structure, regime and price position of the price action chart for a final decision. These just alert you that you are in a good position for profits.
Both of these indicators are only found in the VIP forums; (the EMA 9 / 21 ATR Entry + Exit + Action + Arrow Signals have not been loaded yet but will be after testing.)

Some people also ask how do you know which stock to choose, which is a more important question than which indicator, indicators even the best ones are useless if the stock is crap. One simple (very simple) scan is for high beta stocks. Having a high beta does not guarantee a good stock it might point to better premiums. A high-beta stock scan with filters to weed out bad names is a good way to choose stocks to play because it narrows the universe to stocks that can actually move while avoiding low-quality setups that burn time, attention, and premium. In practice, it helps you focus on names with enough volatility, liquidity, and trend or catalyst quality to matter, instead of chasing random movers that are weak, illiquid, or structurally broken. Here is the Beta scanner for you to play with.
