Excessive Momentum Indicator and Trading Operation

Excessive Momentum Indicator automatically detects the broken balance between supply and demand in the financial market. Detection of this broken balance provides the great market timing for the entry and exit for our trading. In this short article, we explain some of the controllable inputs in the Excessive Momentum Indicator.

There are the four main inputs, controlling the calculation process of Excessive Momentum Indicator. They are:

* Bars To Scan: amount of candle bars to calculate the indicator. Choose bigger numbers if you want to see the calculation over longer historical period.

* Momentum Strength Factor: Momentum Strength is the strength of Excessive Momentum to detect. It can stay between 0.1 and 0.5. In theory, it can go up to 1.0. However, you will not get many signals to trade. The default setting is 0.1. You can try various Momentum Strength Factor to optimize your trading performance if you wish.

* Equilibrium Fractal Wave Scale: This input controls the size of Fractal Wave when we detect the excessive momentum. If you put bigger number, then you get less signals to trade. The default setting is 0.5.

* Detrending Period: This input controls the statistical calculation in the algorithm. It should stay between 20 and 50.

Above four inputs are important because they can affect the number and quality of trading signals. You can use the default setting most of time. However, it is also possible that you can try different inputs and check how they perform in the historical data. Rest of inputs are probably self-explanatory from their name.

Now, let us cover the trading signals. In the Excessive Momentum indicator, you get two signal alerts. Firstly, you will get alert when the Excessive Momentum is starting in the market. In this case, it will notify you the starting price. At this stage, the excessive momentum is not completely expanded yet.

Secondly, you will get alert when the Excessive Momentum is completed in the market. At this stage, you will be notified both starting price and ending price of Excessive Momentum.

Both starting price and ending price of Excessive Momentum form the Excessive Momentum Zone. At which signal you want to trade is up to your choice. You can use the zone as the breakout trading when the zone is narrow. When the zone is sufficiently large, it might be possible to aim some reversal trading opportunity too.

At the same time, this Excessive Momentum Zone can be considered as either Accumulation or Distribution area in the Volume Spread Analysis. You can further find the symptoms of accumulation and distribution area using our Volume Spread Pattern Indicator (Paid and Advanced version) or Volume Spread Pattern Detector (Free and Light version).

Gartley Pattern Study

This study involves to exam 96 Gartley Patterns, historically formed in Forex and stock market index Chart. First screenshot is taken with Garltey Pattern only. Second screenshot is taken with Gartley pattern + Supply Demand Zone + Bollinger Bands. So there are 192 screenshots (96 x 2) in this study. This study uses non repainting and non lagging Harmonic Pattern detection algorithm. Hence, this study will show both failed and successful pattern to provide you the unbiased results. Typically, a repainting indicator will show the successful pattern making it hard to check the real performance of your strategy in historical study in your chart. If you want to become a profitable trader, you should study the strategy in the scientific manner. It basically involves checking the repeatability or reproducibility. We provide this study to enhance the forex and stock trading for the trading community. We also want to add some scientific value for the Harmonic Pattern, X3 Chart Pattern and Elliott Wave Pattern too. The Gartley Pattern in this study has the following Structure:

N: 3, C0: 0.618 to T0: 3
R0: 1.272, R1: 0.382 -0.886, R2: 0.618
Points to watch out in this study:

Price movement around the Pattern Completion Zone (= Trading Zone) in the Gartley Pattern
Supply Demand Zone interaction with Gartley Pattern
Risk management around the Trading Zone. Look for the trading entry, where at least, Reward > Risk x 2
Possibility for breakout trading around the trading zone (=use them as support and resistance)
Look for continuation pattern vs reversal pattern

Fractal Pattern Scanner – Trading Operation

In this short article, we will explain the trading operation with turning point probability for Fractal Pattern Scanner in MetaTrader and in Optimum Chart. Fractal Pattern Scanner is the powerful tool to predict the Forex and Stock market. It is the highly predictive tool that quantifies the price action at every wave in your chart. Fractal Pattern Scanner provides three main features. The three features include:

1. Turning Point Probability Measurement (Essential feature that you can use everyday)

2. Breakout and Reversal Trading Signal Detection with Mother Wave detection

3. Automatic Gann Angles (Bonus feature and optional use only)

The turning point probability measurement is the essential to your daily trading. The turning point probability basically quantifies the price action in your chart. Quantifying the price action will provide you the another level of trading experience. Capability to access the turning point probability in one button click is really handy feature for every day trader on the earth. In addition, Fractal Pattern Scanner provides the probability scanning capability across all timeframe. You can also switch on and off the multiple timeframe pattern detection. When you set Detect Mother Wave = false, you can run the Fractal Pattern Scanner as the pure probability machine.

The turning point probability is a powerful tool that you can use it as both reversal trading or breakout trading within your technical analysis. You can watch this YouTube video titled as “Breakout Trading vs Reversal Trading (Turn Support & Resistance to Killer Strategy)” in this link below to get some hands on practice with breakout and reversal trading opportunity with Support and Resistance Technical Analysis.

YouTube Video Link: https://youtu.be/UbORmOacKIQ

Mother wave pattern detection can be considered as the statistical representation of the Elliott Wave Theory. For example, Mother wave pattern detect the pattern inside pattern structure, where small patterns are jagged inside big pattern, like the Elliott Wave pattern. We can use this pattern inside pattern to trade both reversal and breakout trading. Fractal Pattern Scanner does the excellent job in detecting these signals automatically. When you set Detect Mother Wave = true, then Fractal Pattern Scanner will detect trading signal using Mother wave pattern detection. Even in that, you can also perform both breakout and reversal trading automatically.

If you want to use Breakout Trading Mode, then set Detect Breakout Opportunity = true.
If you want to use Reversal Trading Mode, then set Detect Breakout Opportunity = false.
You can also watch the YouTube Video titled as “Breakout Trading Signal Explained” to understand the breakout trading with mother wave detection.

YouTube video link: https://youtu.be/4XGuMIMaV6w

====================================================================================

Mother Wave Pattern Explained further

The idea behind the Breakout trading with Mother wave is to detect mother wave relatively young and fresh. Those young and fresh mother wave will be typically found in the low turning point probability area. Then what does “First Child Price Probability” input do ? It is the criteria for how small first child wave could be when the mother wave pattern is detected. If this is even hard to understand, then you can think it is the size of mother wave.

If you set the First Child Price Probability = 30%, then Fractal Pattern Scanner will detect first child wave with its size less than 30% amplitude. Likewise, if you set the First Child Price Probability = 50%, then Fractal Pattern Scanner will detect first child wave with its size less than 50%. For your information, the detected mother wave patterns does not provide any sort of geometric regularity detection in the case of breakout trading. We have taught you several geometric regularity detection like support, resistance and triangle and wedge patterns. You will need similar sort of operation here.

In the reversal trading mode with Mother Wave, the size of first child wave is no longer required to be controlled. However, we can control the size of Mother wave. The idea behind the reversal trading mode is to detect mature mother wave pattern that are likely to make reversal movement. Hence, it is better to find these mother wave patterns in high probability area in the probability graph.

For this reason, we have set the mother wave price probability = 80%. You can set even higher number if you wish. When you are using reversal trading mode, we provide automatic Fibonacci expansion to help you to decide the final turning point. This is sort of geometric regularity you can use. But you can use any other geometric regularity we have taught you in our articles and books too like Harmonic Pattern or Elliott Wave patterns, etc if you are good with them.

Here is some important tips. From our experience, some Forex symbols are better with breakout trading mode. Some Forex symbols are better with reversal trading mode. To find out the best trading approach, just set Bars to Scan = 6000 or higher. Just find how each trading mode is profitable in the chart.

You can also use strategy tester for this purpose too. When you are using the strategy tester, then set Calculating with Trailing Data = true. This will tell the Fractal Pattern Scanner to calculate the probability with trailing data (i.e. technical analysis approach) rather than the statistical approach. When you are using technical analysis approach, the probability will be calculated like other technical indicators like Moving average indicator or RSI indicator using trailing data. In statistical approach, the entire data will be used to calculate probability.

Statistical approach and technical analysis approach does not matter for the latest pattern to trade. It is only matter for historical patterns for your information. I personally prefer to calculate the probability using Statistical approach because it provides the identical probability across all price series.

I guess it is too much mathematical talk. I will cut it out. If you do not want to think, then just remember these two cases.

A. If you want to see the historical patterns in your chart, then set “Calculating with Trailing Data” = false.

B. When you are using the strategy tester, then set “Calculating with Trailing Data” = true.
