Lenova, give your trades some room to breathe. I would not use a mini dot for a SL, I would maybe consider the big dot. But if using a semafor for SL, I would stick to the arrows. You turned a good winning trade into nothing/small loss.

Also, are you using the semafor as entry triggers? If so, stop it now and never do that again. The semafor are not entry signals. They are there to give a view of the overall picture. They are part of the set-up, they are not the set-up.

Hi XARD777,

At first glance, she looks like a real beauty! Thanks for all the work that's gone into this.

Can't wait to take it for a drive at the Aussie Open with AUS200 and HK50. I'll have some feedback.

Many many thanks

Only OVR will work because it is based on ATR and not on points like EXT.
And if you want to know exactly how it's calculated :

and because i'm lazy AI will explain this ;P
"How it works in practice:
The code asks: "What percentage of '50 points' have we moved away from VWAP?"

If Price moves 50 points away: 50 (distance) divided by 50 (hardcoded base) = 1.0 1.0 * 100 = 100% Extension (This is a "King" move).
If Price moves 25 points away: 25 / 50 = 0.5 0.5 * 100 = 50% Extension.
Why this is broken for Forex:
Indices (e.g., US30): The price is ~34,000. A move of 50 points is substantial. The math works perfectly: 50 / 50 = 100%.
Forex (e.g., EURUSD): The price is ~1.1000. A huge move of 50 pips is mathematically only 0.0050. The math becomes: 0.0050 / 50 = 0.0001. 0.0001 * 100 = 0.01% Extension.
Because 0.01% is less than the "Virgin" threshold (50%), the indicator thinks the price has barely moved, even though it might have moved a lot in pip terms."


EDIT:
Why Xard didn't use standard deviation ? you'll have to get the answer from him.
