3. HOW IT WORKS

Core Calculation & Logic

The Brilliant Reversals MultiCurrency Scanner continuously monitors multiple currency pairs for potential reversal points based on various technical indicators. It identifies market conditions that suggest price reversals, enabling traders to make informed decisions.

This scanner utilizes a combination of price action analysis, moving averages, and other indicators to calculate entry and exit points, providing a comprehensive view of market dynamics across selected pairs.

How Signals Are Generated

A BUY signal is generated when the price crosses above a specific moving average, indicating upward momentum. Additionally, if other indicators confirm this trend, it strengthens the signal's reliability.

A SELL signal occurs when the price drops below a moving average, suggesting downward momentum. Confirmation from additional indicators enhances the signal's validity.

The scanner can utilize ALL confluence logic, meaning a signal is only valid if multiple indicators agree, increasing the likelihood of a successful trade.

The dashboard displays symbols in rows and timeframes in columns, with colored arrows indicating buy (green) or sell (red) signals. The signal age is shown in parentheses, providing insight into how recent the signal is.

Step-by-Step Workflow

Step 1: Select Currency Pairs Choose the currency pairs you want to monitor by configuring the pairs list in the settings.

Step 2: Set Timeframes Enable the desired timeframes for scanning to receive signals based on your trading strategy.

Step 3: Adjust Panel Settings Customize the panel's appearance by modifying colors, sizes, and display settings to suit your preferences.

Step 4: Analyze Signals Monitor the dashboard for buy and sell signals, paying attention to the signal age and confirmation from other indicators.

Step 5: Execute Trades Use the signals generated by the scanner to make informed trading decisions, entering and exiting positions as indicated.
