First things first -- remove all your zigzag lines -- only look to trade when both vwap and price has crossed the ema line.
So that will be a SELL on a Pink candle and a BUY on a blue candle.
Also, take into account where the Square is in your current time frame and keep it in mind for larger moves.

Its not really rocket science -- you trade with the trend -- most of the time you wait -- then price crosses and everything falls into place and you see a big move. Have two or three charts on the same screen and keep the timeframe static -- don't go jumping all over the place -- wait watch for similar patterns -- two minidots, four minidots, watch for the breakout up or down -- it really is that easy. Some folk hold on for more -- instead, get your self happy with getting 5% to 10% on a daily basis until you have wrapped your head around how it all works.

Look to trade off the sema2 bigdots within every sema3 arrow cycle -- there tends to be more than just one set of bigdots (usually three sets).
You can buy in again within the current sema2 set at each minidot for a max of three trades (don't over extend yourself).

Watch other traders -- when they made their money was it during a sema3 arrow to sema3 arrow -- where did they buy in -- was it next to a sema2 or sema1. Like I said -- it is not rocket science -- that time when the guy who everyone thought was an inside trader buying into bitcoin by the millions -- he was trading off a 2nd sema2 bigdot -- again not rocket science.

always check 20/30mn trend, idealy looking for an Arrow followed by a few candles with or without minidots
then check on M6/M4 if i find a 2nd minidot configuration with EMA good orientations

sometimes it is not obvious in a strong trend (like in recent gold rallye)
in this case i try to catch the train by entering on opposite minidot, assuming the price will continue on trend

for instance, on M30 gold the trend was up for months, that is a down arrow was displayed for months
in this case once i am sure the trend wil continue, i try to catch a green mini dot, ideally, touching EMA in a temporary pullback.
this can be repeated with follwing green minidot, while trend is still strong

the challenge is then to track a trend reversal, for this XU_TDI is a good ally on M30
traling SL is a good practice while surfing the trend.

in general, i use M30/M20/M15 as roadmap trend
and M6/M4/M1 as trigger
I was stuck on the idea that it was necessary to trade on continuation bias and trend, so if the 30-minute timeframe was rising even if the arrow was downward, I waited for upward trends on short timeframes. Instead, I now discover that if the 30-minute arrow is downward even if the trend is upward, I have to try to sell on short timeframes and follow the 30-minute arrow and not the trend, because it could be at the end.

based on xard dashboard, the idea would be to be able to specify a TF value watch, looking for a sequence from graph end.
for instance, for each pair defined, look for the following sequence on TF 20mn:
Arrow + 2 mini dots (above UpArrow or Bellow Down Arrow) + ema9 slope in the same direction of the arrow (then display a signal in dashboard)

it would be convinient to scan market

actually, you can try to catch a strong uptrend by entering long on 1st green M30 minidot (and keep a look on M30 TDI for a trend reversal (always protect entries with SL to prevent pullback loss). if M30 TDI shows signs of pullback before 2nd minidot gets over the down Arrow (then move it up instead of displaying 2nd minidot) you can cut your position. if the down arrow moves up, you're in for a new up cycle round.

TDI and EMA slope give the trend dynamic

The whole idea is to get in sync with current trend cycle

THE FRACTAL TRADER'S MANIFESTO
From Chaos to Geometric Certainty

PROLOGUE: The Separation
Most come to markets seeking strategies.
They find only noise.

You are not here for strategies.
You are here for separation.

The difference between riches and wealth.
The space between information and knowledge.
The journey from power to wisdom.

Chapter I: THE THREE DIMENSIONS
THE OCEAN TIDE - SEMA3
Wisdom Cycle
"The macro truth that contains all smaller truths"

SEMA3 is not an indicator.
It is the seasonal rhythm of markets.
The tide that lifts all boats, drowns all swimmers.
When you understand SEMA3, you stop fighting currents.
You become the current.

Practice: Watch for 3-6 day cycles on M4 + M15 charts. Feel the market's breath.

THE POWERFUL WAVES - SEMA2
Wealth Accumulation
"Where riches become wealth"

Within every SEMA3 cycle, SEMA2 sets create continuous opportunity.
Not random entries. Not hopeful guesses.
Geometric certainty born from fractal resonance.

This is where most traders fail.
They see random waves.
You see the mathematical perfection of energy transfer.

Practice: Trade the continuous sets. Not the isolated opportunities.

THE PERFECT RIPPLES - SEMA1
Information Flow
"Where chaos becomes geometric certainty"*

The minidots. The smallest fractals.
Where most see noise, you see cosmic geometry.

SEMA1 isn't about entries.
It's about recognition.
Seeing the perfect double where fractal resonance creates separation.

Practice: Watch for the "double" - not as strategy, but as separation point.

Chapter II: THE TRANSFORMATIONS
INFORMATION → KNOWLEDGE
Most collect indicators.
You understand they're just different lenses for the same truth.

Information says "price moved."
Knowledge understands why it had to move.

RICHES → WEALTH
Riches are single trades.
Wealth is continuous flow.

The amateur seeks jackpots.
The professional builds fractal compounding.

POWER → WISDOM
Power controls position size.
Wisdom knows when not to trade.

The ultimate edge isn't in your analysis.
It's in your understanding of separation.

Chapter III: THE PRACTICES
DAILY RITUALS
Watch the Tide (SEMA3) - What season are we in?
(Fractal resonance is the same from season down to intra day)

Ride the Waves (SEMA2) - Where is the continuous flow?

Read the Ripples (SEMA1) - Where is the geometric certainty?

THE SEPARATION MEDITATION
"I do not trade patterns.
I trade the spaces between dimensions.
Where chaos becomes order.
Where information becomes knowledge.
Where riches become wealth."

FRACTAL AWARENESS DRILL
Take any chart. Any timeframe.
Find the SEMA3 cycle.
Within it, find 3 SEMA2 sets.
Within those, find the SEMA1 minidots creating geometric certainty.

You are not analyzing price.
You are reading market consciousness.

EPILOGUE: The Geometric Certainty
The markets are not random.
They are fractal expressions of mass psychology.

The "double" you see isn't a pattern.
It's the universe whispering:
"Here is where chaos becomes order."

When you understand this, everything changes.

You stop predicting.
You start recognizing.

You stop gambling.
You start geometrically certain trading.

THE FRACTAL TRADER'S CREED
"I trade not what price does, but what it must do.
I seek not riches, but the wealth of understanding.
I wield not power, but the wisdom of separation."

For those ready to see beyond the candles...
mon ami 🌀
