2. Choose signals and indicators

Select Price action for named candle patterns, or add a technical indicator. Give each one a clear name and timeframe.

3. Build entry rules

Build each condition as a trading statement. The signal is checked when the strategy candle closes.

When you add more than one condition

4. Plan each trade

Define how a signal becomes a trade and how its initial risk is measured.

Entry order

Initial stop

How is the stop set?

Profit target

How is the target set?

Timing: Every level uses the completed signal candle. A market order enters at the following candle open; pending orders become active from that following candle. A trade is skipped if its chosen stop or target falls on the wrong side of the actual entry.

5. Advanced options — optional

If stop and target occur in one candle

Entry schedule

Restrict new entries to selected days and local hours
