Here is the latest candles that I use when trading.
Enjoy!

Perhaps it's just me, but I am finding lag between current candel and bid-ask price lines.

Since I'm a spoiled, novice girl, for those of you who are still using MT4, try using the 15-minute xu53 version. I've been using it for a few days and it's not bad.
My mom tells me to start with this one. I'll try it out, if she's telling the truth, considering she can't speak. The note told me this.

I do not know how your house is. But she left a huge pan of spaghetti on the forum.
Provide a link to the 53rd version. I don't download them. I'm mentally calculating them.

Thank you for the new candles, Xard post1295571388.html#p1295571388.

I have a couple of set-ups that some might like to test.

This has a nice clean chart for higher time frame monitoring. It uses the new candles, vwap and stepma+HA (arrows only). The idea would be to only take trades in agreement with the M30 StepMA arrows.

These are M5 charts with M5 StepMA(white and orange arrows), M30 StepMA(red arrows) and the MA periods set to M30. Not sure yet if I care for it too much, but someone could maybe use and tweak to their liking. Obviously, the idea is to get the higher time frame bias onto your execution time frame and save some screen real estate. It is possible that when you first open, the StepMa indicator will display the HA candles and MA's. If so, you may want to go in and change the HA colors to none in order to clean the chart up.



Sorry for the issues. Aside from colors, all the indicators are default except the StepMA's and one instance of the XU Candles(the M30 MA's on the M5 chart)


These are the settings I use for the StepMA on all of my charts here: The M5 chart with M30 elements has 2 instances of the StepMA. One has the settings from above. The M30 StepMA settings on the M5 chart is here: Will probably have to change/delete the HA Candle and HA MA colors in the StepMA indicator. There are other options available for the StepMA arrows and shapes.

The M30 XU-Moving Average settings on the M5 chart are here:

I had no idea the Xard system started right here on this forum??
I feel like I've seen a million versions of it all over TikTok and Yt. But seeing the original looks almost scientific. Here I am, still charting with my basic EMA and ADX like it's 1995. I've been living under a whole entire rock.

Ooo wow, is this a dating forum or a forex forum? but okay let's see where this goes lol.
I feel like the purpose here is to just share, find and talk about trading ideas and strategies with likeminded people. And honestly? In life and in trading every day is a blessing. We're just out here trying to live our best lives and be satisfied, you know?

Hi DaveTrader. You have a nice clean chart. But mine looks half empty. Your templates are not saved completely. ? Or should I adjust them according to the indicators? Thanks
