XARD: 7% profit made off 2nd Sema2 Dot on last trade today — you tell me?

Hi Xard, how do you the Energy level indicator

Based on the code, the **Energy** levels (Low, Normal, High, Extreme) are determined by the **absolute percentage move** of the current day's price change relative to the 20-day average range (ADR). Here's the breakdown:

## **Energy Level Thresholds:**

| Energy Level | Condition (Absolute % Move) | Color (Default) |
|--------------|-----------------------------|-----------------|
| **LOW** | < 50% | Lime Green |
| **NORMAL** | ≥ 50% and < 100% | Gold |
| **HIGH** | ≥ 100% and < 150% | Orange |
| **EXTREME** | ≥ 150% | Red |

## **How It's Calculated:**

1. **Daily Price Change in Pips**:
`dailyPipDiff = (closePrice - openToday) * pipsize`

2. **20-Day Average Range (ADR) in Pips**:
`adrAvg` = average of daily ranges over 20 days, converted to pips

3. **Percentage Move**:
`adrPercent = (100 / adrAvg * dailyPipDiff)`
This shows how much of the average daily range the current move represents.

4. **Energy Determination**:
The **absolute value** of `adrPercent` is used to determine the energy level:
- If price has moved less than 50% of the average daily range → **LOW** energy
- 50-99% of average range → **NORMAL** energy
- 100-149% of average range → **HIGH** energy
- 150%+ of average range → **EXTREME** energy

## **Visual Display:**
- The energy level appears as text (e.g., "ENERGY NORMAL")
- The color changes based on the energy level
- Positioned to the right of the large price display on the chart

## **Example:**
- If the average daily range is 100 pips and today's move is 45 pips → 45% → **LOW** energy (Lime Green)
- If today's move is 120 pips → 120% → **HIGH** energy (Orange)

This provides a quick visual indicator of whether the current day's price movement is relatively small or large compared to recent volatility.

you should ask a question Lenovo not just pictures i think u want to know if u should trade like before after two big dots ? and yes rules haven't change same as always.

here you have what AI thinks of first post in MT5 topic and how it interprets how to trade it u can ask Xard if he agrees or not with AI.

I think all this refers to examining the 1-hour chart? So if I look at the 1-hour chart on the Nasdaq, could a new bull cycle be brewing, confirmed by the second low that hasn't appeared yet?

AI interpretation :

Great — let’s decode your exact, real example step-by-step so you know exactly what to do, with ZERO guessing.

I’ll rewrite your situation cleanly:

YOUR CURRENT MARKET SETUP
ROADMAP TF (higher TF):

Square DOWN

Arrow UP

→ This means:

The last macro cycle ended DOWN,
but the new macro cycle has NOT confirmed direction yet,
because the Arrow is UP against the Square.

This UP Arrow is NOT a valid trend start.
It is a pullback cycle, not a trend.

You cannot trade this Arrow Up.
You must IGNORE it.

MID TF (15m):

Square UP

PINK 60-dot

Since this is a DOWN macro environment (Square Down on roadmap TF),
a Square Up on 15m means:

“The pullback might be topping.”

BUT the pink 60-dot on 15m means:

“Expansion down is starting on 15m.”

This is the first hint the market may be rolling back DOWN
(in line with roadmap Square Down, NOT the Arrow Up pullback).

BUT no trade yet — only a signal of weakness.

LOW TF (5m):

Square UP

Arrow DOWN

PINK 60-dot

This is the MOST important part.

Square Up + Arrow Down + Pink 60 =
The DOWN trend is trying to resume on the lowest TF.

This is the first true trend alignment with the roadmap Square Down.

THE BIG QUESTION: “Should I trade now?”

Here’s the full logic:

STEP 1 — What does the Roadmap tell you?

Roadmap = Square Down + (invalid Arrow Up)

➡ Macro Bias = DOWN

Do NOT buy anything.

STEP 2 — What does the Mid TF tell you?

15m = Square Up + Pink 60

➡ The pullback upward may be ending.
➡ Selling pressure might be beginning.

Still no entry, but it confirms DOWN bias is returning.

STEP 3 — What does the Low TF tell you?

5m =

Square UP (top formed)

Arrow DOWN (trend attempt down)

Pink 60 (EXPANSION DOWN)

➡ This is the first valid continuation arrow
➡ It matches the macro Square Down bias
➡ It is the correct direction
➡ It is tradeable, IF entry conditions confirm

**FINAL DECISION: YES — you can prepare to SELL

but only after the 5m Pink expansion appears with Red 12-dot entry.**

You need:

✔ Roadmap = Square Down
✔ Mid TF = starting to turn with Pink (15m)
✔ Low TF = Arrow Down + Pink expansion (5m)
✔ THEN entry TF (1m or 5m) gives:

Red 12-dot

Below VWAP

Pink 60 still active

➡ TAKE THE SELL.

When you must NOT sell

If you see:

BLUE 60 on 5m

Price above VWAP

No Red 12

Weak PA

→ WAIT
Not ready yet.

SUMMARY — WHAT YOU DO RIGHT NOW

Based on your example:

✔ Roadmap Square Down → macro = DOWN
✔ Arrow Up on roadmap = IGNORE
✔ 15m Square Up + Pink = pullback ending
✔ 5m Square Up + Arrow Down + Pink = VALID DIRECTION
➡ WAIT FOR RED 12-dot (entry)

When the RED 12-dot prints on 5m or 1m:

SELL. That is your entry.

This is exactly what the system is designed for.

remember this is only AI answer. Don't take it for granted Ai make a lot of errors. U need human "touch" by traders here so they can confirm that this make sense.

Even in answer above when i point out that it didn't take into account square + arrow on road map TF i get the answer that it was only structure based no aligned with Xard rules it's fun to "torture" it a bit.

Edit:

heh so if i have square down on road map that is not confirmed maybe i can trade arrow up after blue 60 dot ?

Great — this is the EXACT “trap situation” XARD traders fall into, and your question is perfect:

“If I have a Square DOWN on the Roadmap TF (unconfirmed),
can I trade an Arrow UP on a lower TF after a BLUE 60-dot?”

Here is the TRUE, correct answer:

NO — you still CANNOT trade the Arrow Up.

Even if you get a BLUE 60-dot.
Even if it looks strong.
Even if M5/M15 show perfect textbook up continuation.

ok but i have all squares in same time ?

Got it — this is the exact situation traders struggle with most:

“What if I have ALL Squares on ALL timeframes at the SAME time?”
(H1 Square Down, M15 Square Down, M5 Square Down, maybe even M1 Square Down)

Let me explain this perfectly so you always know what to do.

FIRST: What it means when ALL Squares appear at the same time

When H1, M15, M5 (and sometimes M1) all print Squares DOWN at the same time, this is called:

Fractal Compression

or

Full-Cycle Reset

This means:

Every timeframe completed its cycle

Liquidity was taken on all levels

Market has finished “breathing”

A new impulse wave is about to begin

But the direction MUST come from the Roadmap Arrow, not from the Squares

Squares only say:

“The cycle ended here.”

They do NOT say:

“The new cycle direction is down.”

They ONLY mark the end — never the beginning.

The Arrow is the beginning.

SECOND: Here is the Golden Rule
When ALL squares appear together,
You MUST wait for the ROADMAP ARROW to set direction.

This is the ONE moment where Square stacking does NOT give you direction.

Because:

When every cycle ends at once,

The market is “empty”, direction-less

It can break either way

And ONLY the Roadmap Arrow will show the true trend.

THIRD: What to do NEXT
✔ STEP 1 — Identify your ROADMAP timeframe

(H1 for intraday, H4 for swing)

✔ STEP 2 — WAIT for the Roadmap Arrow

This Arrow sets the new trend:

Arrow Up → Only buy

Arrow Down → Only sell

This is the MOST IMPORTANT STEP.

✔ STEP 3 — AFTER Roadmap Arrow appears

You drop to lower TFs:

Look for 60-dot expansion in Arrow direction
(PINK expansion in downtrend, BLUE expansion in uptrend)

Enter on Red/Green 12-dot entries

Trade Arrow → Arrow

This is the correct flow.

FOURTH: Why you CANNOT trade early when all Squares appear together

When multiple Squares print at the same time:

✔ It means all cycles ended
✔ But NO new cycle started
✔ There is no Arrow yet
✔ Momentum is zero
✔ Price is flat or unstable
✔ Any early entry can easily be a fake move

You MUST let the market choose direction.

Only the Roadmap Arrow confirms the new leg.

FIFTH: SIMPLE ANSWER (Your Question)

“If I have all squares on all TFs at the same time, can I trade after a 60-dot?”

NO.

Not until you get the Roadmap Arrow.

Why?

Because the 60-dot shows expansion inside a cycle,
but ALL squares mean there is no cycle yet.

You are literally between cycles.

And here is WHY:

THE MOST IMPORTANT RULE IN THE SYSTEM
**A Roadmap Square is NOT the trend.

Only the Roadmap Arrow sets the trend.**

When you have:

Roadmap TF:

Square DOWN

No Arrow yet

That means:

There is NO confirmed trend.
You are between cycles.
The market is blind.

Because the Roadmap Arrow hasn’t chosen the new direction yet.

So what is the Arrow Up on the lower timeframe?

A temporary micro reversal,
a pullback,
or noise inside a bigger structure reset.

Even with:

BLUE 60-dot

GREEN 12-dot

Nice candles

Perfect-looking push

It is ALL counter-trend until the Roadmap Arrow confirms direction.

This is exactly how people blow accounts with XARD.
They see beautiful lower-TF signals during a Square,
think it’s a new trend,
and enter early — then get reversed HARD.

Okay, I won't spam here anymore, everyone can play with AI themselves.
