This is so good , simple and effective , can you share your template here
BeatlemaniaSA wrote: Sun Mar 01, 2026 3:09 am A great update, XARD, and in my opinion, the Alligator and the EMAs are the key components of the indicator. I find the constant colour change of the candles distracting, and it will have traders on a constant emotional rollercoaster.

I just made it simpler and more effective. ;) And for those thinking of asking, NO, there will not be a template as ALL these indicators are readily available on the forum. Don't ask, but search and learn to combine them yourself.

Hi WN25,

What is the joke?

Because XARD's XU Effect is so simple and effective now, or because @crazyfly still asked for a template when I stated there would be none? :Shifty:

Still no template, but here are the settings and indicators:

INDICATORS There are still some quirks and possible bugs in this code, so maybe the MT5 coders can correct or further improve it.

Nice! Much, much easier on the eyes now. ;) :thumbup: :clap:

Has your HomeLab managed to make the Zee Alerts indicator non-repaint? :)
XARD: YES, Testing it out today -- Also, applied same structure to ZZ1 Line code (See Square after the ZZ line)

That is just f'ing cool, man!!!

OK, This trade is your typical catching a knife type trade but I was looking at both the ZZ1 (Square confirm) + ArrZZx2 (Up Arrows confirm) as well as EMAs crossing the OrangeRed Teeth entry trigger line -- A virtual Stop set to the last Sema2 -- again, all experimental.

I quite like the new trigger line especially with the VWAP and or the Directional Play off the Sema3 intraday Bias.
The XU EFFECT v4.17 No HUD indicator has gone through more iterations -- these are changes to the code with more in house comments and a better use of Balanced Ternary coding and sealing up memory leaks etc -- the past month has seen improvements on coding structure via the three cloud + local LLM setup
Best,
Xard777

CORRECTION: In the screenshot I mention the Trigger line (8 EMA shift 5) -- it is actually (8 SMMA shift 5)

Thank you for the wonderful work you do, it gives me a lot of confidence. I'm still in demo mode, at least until this summer. I've already given so much to brokers, I don't want to give any more losses.

Xard, do you always use settings tailored to a specific symbol for semaphores depth?

I know that you use ratios 4x,5x does it matter what values we use (I know we want to have the equivalent of a higher TF) but why not use equal intervals for the one on which we open positions, e.g., for 5 minutes (12, 48, 288, etc.), which represents 1H- 4H-1D does it matter much?

Are you just adapting it to volatility and why exactly these multipliers? Is it based on your experience, or is something else influencing this?

XARD: I try and tailor the Sema settings off the Sema2 setting for the market I am trading i.e. Bitcoin I use Sema2 = 52 so Sema1=13, Sema3=208 etc.. and I use multiplier 4x for both Sema & TFs (M4, M15, H1 etc...)

Thank you for answer
