First of all, I wanted to thank you for these continuous updates to your wonderful system.
I am slowly beginning to understand and appreciate it more and more, even though at first I was very confused by all these dots and colours.
Now I have modified your template a little by adding oracles and slightly changing the colours.
My question is this: when you talk about the 2nd big dot...
is the 2nd big dot the one indicated by arrow “A” or the one on arrow “B”?
In other words, is the second big dot pink + blue in bullish trend as in my pic?
Or is it the second one in the direction of the trend?
If I understand correctly, it is the first of the two hypotheses, but I await your confirmation.
Thank you very much for your reply, I think it could also be useful to other users of this forum.
Best regards from Italy.
XARD: When you get a new Arrow watch for the RSI crossing the mid level for confirmation of a new trend - the EMA line should also show the way too. Checkout Build 5430 + latest XU v036 build 5430 setup which shows exactly what I am talking about -- Directional Play.

1514Thank you Mr. Xard777!
I have been away from this awesome forum of the great coders and including @mrtools, @xard777, @kvak, @Banzai, @BeatlemaniaSA, Jimmy, @Cagliostro, @moey_dw and others. I also thank the people who support new bees.
I haven't been well mentally due to some setbacks (as my Dad passed away recently) leaving me and my younger siblings behind.
I found this forum some time back and realized this the only forum where people help each other without any self motives. I look forward to stay here and grow with experienced people mentioned above. I will be posting my setups and findings (maybe it can help someone to find their way).
Thanks in advance for taking your valuable time to read this post.

1515I can't get the new setup to pull up in New build. Is anyone else having the same issue?
XARD: Setup v036 is tuned for build 5430—link’s in the post right before it.

1516In Sicily (CET/CEST), you are perfectly positioned to catch the major market movements of the day. Here is the breakdown in both languages.
In Sicilia (fuso orario CET/CEST), ti trovi in una posizione ideale per cogliere i principali movimenti di mercato della giornata. Ecco il dettaglio in entrambe le lingue.
1. The "Golden Window" | La "Finestra d'Oro"
Time / Orario: 14:00 – 18:00
English: This is the London-New York Overlap. It is the most volatile and liquid time of the day. Most professional traders make their daily profits in this 4-hour window.
Italiano: Questo è il momento in cui la sessione di Londra e New York si sovrappongono. È il periodo con la massima volatilità e liquidità. La maggior parte dei trader professionisti concentra la propria operatività in queste 4 ore.
2. European Opening | Apertura Europea
Time / Orario: 08:00 – 10:30
English: High volume as the Frankfurt and London markets open. Great for trading the DAX or EUR pairs.
Italiano: Volume elevato con l'apertura delle borse di Francoforte e Londra. Ottimo momento per scambiare l'indice DAX o le coppie con l'Euro.
3. US "Power Hour" | L'Ora di Punta Americana
Time / Orario: 21:00 – 22:00
English: The final hour of the New York session. Expect fast price movements as institutional investors rebalance their portfolios.
Italiano: L'ultima ora della sessione di New York. Aspettatevi movimenti rapidi dei prezzi poiché gli investitori istituzionali ribilanciano i loro portafogli prima della chiusura.

1517From the charts posted on the xard forum, I understand that it's useless to move from time to time. It's fine to use the 15-minute time frame, but if the trend has started and I still enter a sell position on the large circle after the arrow, how do I erase the profit? Where do I exit? Perhaps I need to use the RSI indicator's cross-over when it reverses.

1518Thanks for the work done, sorry I didn't explain myself well, but I meant the chart times 4-15-1h.....etc, as far as trading is concerned I spend the whole day looking after my mother at home, so I have no other commitments, I usually stay at the PC all day and many times since I sleep little even at night, but still no results arriveVetis wrote: Wed Jan 21, 2026 10:16 pm In Sicily (CET/CEST), you are perfectly positioned to catch the major market movements of the day.

Thank you, XARD, for the amazing work and years of dedication to this project.
I will finally be updating my XU v0008 setup to the latest version. v0008 was the only version that worked smoothly on my system (Windows 11 Pro, no object issues). I have been testing it for almost two months and have gradually started to understand your concept of fractals and market movement through it.
I hope that v036 still preserves the core foundation of v0008. That said, I will certainly miss the small arrows that appear after the big one.
