Technical Indicator Set-Up Guide



Below, you will find the technical indicators currently being offered either in group bundles or individually.

First, you will see each indicator posted on a price chart of the ES mini - 60 minutes.

Below each price chart you will find the variable input settings that are available for that indicator.

Please feel free to email me with any questions you may have about anything related to what you see.



1. Cycle Dots - these dots are plotted in 2 time frames on cycle peaks and valleys. When both time frames (colors) plot at the same point, a market reversal is almost guaranteed. Once plotted, these dots are written in stone - no repainting, no disappearing!






2. Fast Trend - This indicator can be plotted on top of the MTF bands, or it can be plotted on top of the price bars, or you can plot it in both places at once! You can change the colors and you can control the look-back period. You have full control. Just follow this indicator when it is moving in the trend direction of a longer time frame band or two! This indicator uses an extremely sophisticated algorithm making it both fast and smooth. After each bar close, the color and direction of the indicator is permanent; it never changes after that.






3. Multi Time Frame (MTF) Trends - This indicator paints 3 horizontal bands representing 3 different time frames. You can change the colors and you can change the lookback periods of the different time frames. Everything is customizable. Once these colors are painted, they do not change ever again, they are written in stone. Swing Painted Bars






4. Swing Painted Bars - This indicator paints the price bars with either green or red depending on price direction. You can change the look-back period of this indicator to make it faster or slower. This setting is fully customizable. Once these colors are painted on the bars, they do not change ever again, they are written in stone.






5. Swing Lines - This is the only indicator in the package that is subject to repaint itself as more price bars are created. To be sure of when this indicator is “locking on” to a swing high or low, I simply plot it on a shorter time frame next to my primary time frame. When this indicator is “locked on” to a swing high or low in a shorter time frame, I can be nearly positive that it is truly “locking on” in my primary time frame.






6. Trend or Range? - This indicator is extremely useful in several different ways. First, it immediately tells me if my market is trending or in a sideways trading range. I usually like to swing trade in the direction of the larger time frame trend. When this indicator plots above the upper horizontal line, the market is in an uptrend (vice versa for a downtrend). This indicator also catches market tops and bottoms quickly and smoothly. The horizontal lines are adjustable. You can calibrate them, narrow or wide, to any market in any time frame. The lookback period of the indicator is also completely adjustable. You can make it very fast or slow it down a bit and make it very smooth. This indicator uses an extremely sophisticated algorithm making it both fast and smooth. After each bar close, the color and direction of the indicator is permanent; it never changes after that.






7. Cycle Predictor - This indicator is very unique. While the main yellow indicator does follow the cycle tops and bottoms very well, it is the green momentum line that does the cycle predicting here. Very often, when that green momentum line crosses the grey zero line, you should be expecting a cycle top or bottom to either be actually occurring or to be arriving very soon. When you combine these “zero line crosses” with the other cycle indicators, you can time your market entries and exits almost perfectly.






8. Cycle Divergence - In uniform, sideways, cycling, trading range conditions, these two indicators move together almost identically. In those conditions, the cycle tops and bottoms are very easy to read. However, in less than perfect conditions, when one of the two indicators begins to move differently than the other, it creates a type of divergence between the two. That is a huge clue that a cycle top or bottom is near. After studying this indicator pair for a while, you will generally know 2 to 3 price bars before the actual top or bottom arrives.






9. Trader’s Path to Wealth - There are 5 different lines in this indicator. They each use the same advanced algorithm. They are each adjustable for whatever timeframe (lookback period) you care to experiment with. With all of this flexibility, you can use the indicator in a number of different ways. You can either create a stand-alone trading system with it or you may prefer to use it as a filter for other indicators or systems you may already be using.

One thing is for sure, if you ever find yourself on the opposite side of the market from this indicator, you are likely not in the right market position! This indicator works in all markets and in all time frames. This indicator does not repaint; once the price bar ends, the indicator is written in stone.
