One method Xard mentioned before is to wait for the candle and background to change colour to the direction that you want.
Thanks. I understand that waiting for the candle may not help me ch as if the market keeps pushing in the direction opposite to the semafor color then it would just change its location regardless of the previous candle closing while the semafor is on it.... now, what does the background color represent?..... I was also thinking of waiting till both MA lines cross with the same color confirming the bias of the semafor color.... did anyone try that ?..

The candle and background will only change colour after it passes both MA lines.

Remember, you are trading a higher time frame (30 mins) on a 5 min chart.
We can see the 30 min Top and Bottom Cycle Semafor (Red/Lime Box)
We can see the 30 min White Dots (Pink/Green large Circle)
We can see the 5 min Red/Lime Dots
All on the one chart.
You just need to take a minute to get your head around it and see where the BIAS is at any one time during this 5 min road map.

Hope this helps

Everything is clear except the 2nd line on the post
I'm new at this so I am so sorry for asking this, but damm I can't see the "30 min Top and Bottom Cycle Semafor (Red/Lime Box)"
What exaclty is this Box? Is it the squares on 5 min TF? Because all of them are red, none is green even on big uptrends....

Can someone please explain this to me?
Thank you so much
Mario

Yes the squares you see is the box Xard is referring to.

Red square means you should look for a downtrend, green box means you should be looking for an uptrend. The box will show up on the 5 min chart but it's created based on the 30 min chart.

I and perhaps others are now waiting for the confirmation of the background color from blue to red (= MAs, and Candle color) for this great Moment. :star:

So once the entry semafor appears, we still have to wait for MA's and Candle colour to change? Just confirming as I know often the entry Semafor will appear before the background colour changes.

Wait for the candles and background colour to change if you want to reduce the risk of the semafor repainting.

If you are OK to take more risk you can enter right when the semofor appear.
