Interesting topic, my positions haven't reached the stop loss for a long time, because I always focus on what is the direction of valid positions according to my BIGSema, I don't ignore any of the elements (include the color of candles) of what is the XU v14m-Setup version (with universe v15m), with XU v12m-TRIANGLE, because if they exist is for some reason. And because of that with this recent version after v1xm i develop some new rules and way the see the charts in a better way. If not double up after one entry, second or 6 re-enter in the same day, without stress and anxiety. And choose very well the hours to trade, because sometimes we are in ranging market and is hard to see the moves.

Because one of the mistakes i made during the learning the basics is that if you see the arrows, i think you're going to keep going in that direction, and that's fantasy, everything or looking at the past and creating scenarios thinking you'd get in there and there, none of that. nothing better than analyzing the charts in real time, understanding how the dots are formed, and you don't even have to open anything, just mark the possible entries, is the best lesson i learn.

For today the trend of XAU start in the begin of Asian Session and that´s it, follow the trend with patient, discipline and focus, and next everything is possible.

There isn´t shortcuts for success, the key is work, dedication and fell the trend in real time

i agree with you 100%, but the reason i post this is that i came across from the recent pages the same scenario where the bias arrow keeps on adjusting, this sometimes happens to me and puts me into confusion as i believe with everyone else

budhi1976 wrote: Fri Sep 20, 2024 10:07 am Same here, My strategy of choice is Big Sema Arrow + 2nd mini dot, I rely mostly on EMA Cross, but I also watch ADR level... As for yesterday, when price has reach 100% ADR zone, I was confident price will turn around, hence I entered as soon as price move below EMA 13

nice preference! i believe in simplicity as well, i think we have the same view of the market approach, only i dont know how to use the ADR

anyways, i really appreciate your responses my friends and im sorry for the delayed reply, i am in pain all over recently. to all of us here who suffered losses on their trades well, welcome to the club. it means you are learning the psychological part of our business.

Patience and practice are the keys to mastering the Xard strategy. Just like the market’s rhythm, we must flow with the waves—waiting for the perfect alignment of signals. Trust the system, refine your skills, and let the simplicity of the setup guide you toward consistent profits. Every trade is an opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive in the journey to financial freedom.

one thing seems to be easy, that is to trade with the trend and to share my view on this is to take advantage of the emas, price reactions higher tfs and lower tfs combined .

tmostafa007 wrote: Sun Sep 22, 2024 5:29 pm Dear Curioso,

Finally, I think I have a basic understanding of the XARD system now, but I still have one question:

• Please check the screenshot below.
  How can I avoid this type of issue and identify when it's a fake signal to prevent it?

For example: A. How many mini-dots should I wait for, especially since sometimes it works after 2 dots, 4 dots, or even after one big blue dot and pink dot?

I believe if I get a clear explanation of this, I will fully understand the concept. As you said, I do grasp the overall elements as you’ve mentioned.

Hello tmostafa007,

Yes is correct your logic, but where is index entry?

About the minidots, I usually use 4th in line with everything else in the template. But attention is not count, is based on alert, because sometimes we see 4th and ema continue in the same color and don´t have an alert. Because if you enter on 4th minidot your stop loss is on 2th or if are advanced mode in opposite dot.

About the Index Entry is useful to understand where is excepted the price hit, is like and Support & Resistance and if exit is for some reason.

Make sense?

Hello Neroloft,

I was going to make a post soon dedicated to explaining my idea of daily open and ADR, together with other features present in PANEL1, but today it fell to the ADR component.

ADR according the ChatGPT.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The **Average Daily Range (ADR)** can help traders determine ideal entry and exit points during a trend by indicating when a market has reached a significant percentage of its daily movement, which may signal opportunities for buying or selling.

When using ADR during trends, different percentages of the daily range can help you manage trades effectively. Here's how different percentages can guide your **buy** or **sell** decisions:

### Best ADR Percentages to Use During a Trend

1. **20-30% ADR: Early Trend Entry (Buy or Sell)**
- **Usage:** This is a good range for identifying early trend entries. If the price has moved 20-30% of the ADR, it may indicate that a new trend is forming, but it’s still in the early stages.
- **Action:** Consider entering a position in the direction of the trend. If other indicators confirm a trend (e.g., moving averages, trendlines), this could be a good entry point.
- **Example:** In an uptrend, if the market has only moved 25% of the ADR early in the session, you might consider entering a buy position to ride the trend further.

2. **50-60% ADR: Midway Point (Continue Holding, Watch for Continuation)**
- **Usage:** If the price has reached around 50-60% of the ADR, it could be in the middle of a daily trend move. This is a key area where traders assess whether the trend has the strength to continue.
- **Action:** If you’re already in the trade, continue holding if the trend remains strong. This level can serve as a checkpoint to gauge the strength of the move.
- **Example:** In a downtrend, if the market has moved 60% of the ADR and there are no signs of reversal, you can continue holding your sell position.

3. **70-80% ADR: Trend Exhaustion Zone (Consider Exiting)**
- **Usage:** As the price approaches 70-80% of the ADR, it is nearing exhaustion for the day. Most of the day’s price movement has occurred, and the trend might slow down or reverse.
- **Action:** Consider exiting or tightening your stop-loss at this point. Many traders use this level to lock in profits or exit positions, anticipating a potential reversal or consolidation.
- **Example:** If the price in an uptrend has already moved 75% of the ADR, it’s often a signal that buying pressure may weaken, and the trend could pause or reverse. This is a good point to take profits on a buy position.

4. **90-100% ADR: Extreme Move (Prepare to Exit or Expect Reversal)**
- **Usage:** When the price reaches 90-100% of the ADR, the trend is likely in its final stages for the day. At this point, further movement is limited, and there’s a high likelihood of a price reversal or consolidation.
- **Action:** Exit positions and avoid entering new trades. The market is likely to retrace or consolidate after such an extended move.
- **Example:** In a strong uptrend, if the price has moved 95% of the ADR, it’s usually a signal to exit a buy trade because the trend has likely exhausted its potential for the day.

### How to Use ADR in Trends for Buy and Sell Decisions:

#### Buy Strategy in an Uptrend:
1. **Entry at 20-30% ADR:**
- If the price is in an uptrend and has only moved 20-30% of its ADR, this can be a good entry point for a buy position, as the trend has room to continue moving upward.

2. **Hold at 50-60% ADR:**
- Once the price has moved 50-60% of the ADR, continue holding your position as long as the trend shows strength. This could be halfway through the day’s potential range, and the trend might still have momentum.

3. **Exit at 70-80% ADR:**
- When the price reaches 70-80% of the ADR, the trend may start to weaken. Consider taking profits or tightening your stop loss to secure gains.

#### Sell Strategy in a Downtrend:
1. **Entry at 20-30% ADR:**
- In a downtrend, entering a sell position after the price has moved 20-30% of the ADR can give you a good opportunity to capture the majority of the trend.

2. **Hold at 50-60% ADR:**
- As the price reaches 50-60% of the ADR, hold your position as long as the market continues moving downward and shows no signs of reversal.

3. **Exit at 70-80% ADR:**
- If the price has moved 70-80% of the ADR, it might indicate exhaustion. This is a good time to take profits on your sell position or place a tight trailing stop.

### Summary of Ideal ADR Percentages for Trading:

- **20-30% ADR:** Good for early entries into a trending market (buy or sell).
- **50-60% ADR:** Consider holding your position, as the trend may still have momentum.
- **70-80% ADR:** This is where the trend may be nearing exhaustion, making it a good point to exit.
- **90-100% ADR:** The trend is likely overextended; expect a possible reversal or consolidation.

### Conclusion:

By using the ADR and watching these key percentage levels, you can make informed decisions about when to **enter, hold, or exit** a trade during a trend. The ADR helps you anticipate the limits of price movement for the day, allowing you to adjust your strategy for better timing and risk management.

Just for comparison I ran the ADR through Grok 2...

The Average Daily Range (ADR) helps traders determine optimal entry and exit points during a trend by signaling when a market has moved significantly within its daily range, potentially indicating times for buying or selling.

When leveraging ADR during trends, various percentages of the daily range can guide trading decisions effectively. Here's how different ADR percentages can inform buy or sell strategies:

Best ADR Percentages to Use During a Trend
20-30% ADR: Early Trend Entry (Buy or Sell)
Usage: This range is ideal for spotting early trend entries. If the price has moved 20-30% of the ADR, it suggests a budding trend.
Action: Consider entering a position in the trend's direction if supported by other indicators like moving averages or trendlines.
Example: In an uptrend, if the market moves 25% of the ADR early, it might be a good time to initiate a buy position.
50-60% ADR: Midway Point (Continue Holding, Watch for Continuation)
Usage: At this point, the price is likely in the middle of the daily trend. This is crucial for assessing the trend's continuation.
Action: If already in a trade, hold if the trend remains robust. Use this as a checkpoint for trend strength.
Example: In a downtrend, a 60% ADR movement with no reversal signs suggests maintaining your sell position.
70-80% ADR: Trend Exhaustion Zone (Consider Exiting)
Usage: Approaching 70-80% of the ADR, the market may be nearing daily exhaustion. Most of the day's movement has occurred.
Action: Consider exiting or tightening stop-losses. Many traders lock in profits here.
Example: In an uptrend, 75% ADR movement often indicates waning buying pressure, signaling profit-taking.
90-100% ADR: Extreme Move (Prepare to Exit or Expect Reversal)
Usage: At 90-100% of the ADR, the trend is nearly exhausted for the day. Further movement is unlikely without a reversal or consolidation.
Action: Exit positions and avoid new entries. Expect retracement or consolidation.
Example: A 95% ADR in an uptrend typically means exiting buy trades, as the trend has likely reached its limit.

How to Use ADR in Trends for Buy and Sell Decisions:
Buy Strategy in an Uptrend:
Entry at 20-30% ADR: Enter a buy position if the price has only moved this much, allowing room for upward continuation.
Hold at 50-60% ADR: Continue holding if the trend is strong; this could be halfway through the potential range.
Exit at 70-80% ADR: Consider taking profits or securing gains as the trend might weaken.

Sell Strategy in a Downtrend:
Entry at 20-30% ADR: Use this to enter sell positions, aiming to capture most of the downward trend.
Hold at 50-60% ADR: Maintain positions as long as the market continues down without signs of reversal.
Exit at 70-80% ADR: Look to exit or tighten stops, anticipating trend exhaustion.

Summary of Ideal ADR Percentages for Trading:
20-30% ADR: Ideal for early trend entries.
50-60% ADR: Hold positions if the trend continues.
70-80% ADR: Consider exiting as the trend nears exhaustion.
90-100% ADR: Likely trend reversal or consolidation; exit positions.

Conclusion:
Using ADR to monitor these key percentage levels can significantly improve your timing for entering, holding, or exiting a trade. It provides a framework for understanding daily price movement limits, enhancing both timing and risk management in trading.
