It is all colour coded for you to see.
Xard777

If I understand correctly, he points out the problem of the majority of traders. How many lines and arrows one puts on the charts and how many system one uses, they all look great on the left side of the current candle.....”I would take this short here and this long there...”Yeah sure! We are all great hindsight traders......

But how to handle the blank space on the right is where the wheat separates from the chaff....in traders terms. It's not nice lines and colours that make a trader successful. One also needs education and experience applying that. Serious traders do not wait for indicators making their trading decisions.
I compliment you that have put a great tool together. You use it successfully because you know more than that. Will it make everyone else successful.....no.
Have a Prosperous New Year, Xard..........and all of you of course.

Did you also take those buys and sells (circled in black) based on the colour code?

Nice Trades off the Pivot Lines.

Especially when you machine-gunned it going down. I thought to myself, "what's he doing"? But obviously you know what you're doing.
Very nice trading style. You obviously use your own stuff to take those trades.

Very Nice

Trading is not rocket science and you do not need hindsight to make Pip$.
Just a little common sense...
Here is a screenshot showing six 1hr charts covering most of the main movers.

Just take a look at the ADR figures in the Info Panel.
With currencies GBPNZD & GBPAUD tend to move the most, just now their ADR's are showing +144 & +143, when the markets move their ADR's tend to be +200.

Re Indices, HK50, Dow & Dax tend to move big too, their ADR's are currently +271, +189 & +120, when the markets move their ADR's tend be +100 more than what is shown.
Gold is sitting around +91 ADR and when the market moves it can easily go +200.

So if you monitor these six charts you should be able to make anywhere between 100 to 300 Pip$ per day.
Stay away from black candles and try and trade with the Trend (blue candles UP trend and pink candles for DOWN Trend).

Watch the main anchor semafor on the 1hr (Red top & Green bot) along with the minor white dot semafors.
Look for zigzag moves, pullbacks then impluse moves which should coincide with our trend colour scheme.
This is where the most Pip$ are made.

Traders watch for breakout moves, well a lot of these breakouts happen when price crosses the main Trend line, and these crosses tend to be after a pullback move followed by the cross impulse move that just keeps going and going in the new trend direction.

If you watch for these pullback/impulse moves at the Main Trend then you will see hindsight in the making.
All the best
