Remington is an advanced multi-filter scalping indicator specifically engineered for MetaTrader 5, built around the proven Supertrend core and reinforced by 25 independent confirmation filters. The system is optimized for the EURUSD M1 timeframe and designed to operate reliably across varying market conditions by dynamically adapting filter weights to volatility, momentum and market structure.

The indicator integrates ATR-based dynamic Stop Loss and Take Profit, Fibonacci-projected exits, interactive on-chart filter controls, and live performance statistics to ensure consistent signal quality and transparent decision-making. All calculations are performed strictly on closed candlesno repainting, no lag, no signal manipulation.

Remington is recommended for traders who want a precision scalping framework with full configurability, suitable for both beginners using the optimized default setup and advanced traders building custom filter combinations.

  • Once an arrow is painted, it remains permanently fixed

  • No retroactive signal insertion in historical data

  • Historical performance reflects exactly what would have been traded live

  2. Step through candles one by one

  3. Confirm arrows appear only at candle close

  4. Verify no arrows shift, disappear or get inserted retroactively

RECOMMENDED USAGE

  • Symbol: EURUSD – fully optimized configuration

  • Timeframe: M1 (recommended) – also supports M5, M15, H1, H4

  • Broker Type: ECN / STP with low spreads (1.0 pip or below)

  • Best Sessions: London & New York overlap (07:00 – 21:00 GMT)

  • Default Filters: 12 of 25 pre-enabled, ready to use immediately

While Remington is compatible with all major Forex pairs and most timeframes, EURUSD M1 delivers the best balance between signal frequency and accuracy.

FUTURE ENHANCEMENTS (ROADMAP)

Upcoming versions of Remington will integrate Machine Learning enhancements via ONNX (Open Neural Network Exchange) for adaptive signal validation.

Planned Features:

  • Neural network confirmation layer on top of existing filters

  • Adaptive learning from historical signal performance

  • Auto-tuning of filter weights per symbol and session

  • Symbol presets for XAUUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY and major pairs

  • Companion Expert Advisor for full automation

The ONNX layer will not replace the current strategy — it will enhance signal confidence by adding a data-driven validation step alongside the existing 25-filter framework.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Pre-Live Testing

  • Always backtest Remington on your broker's historical data before live use

  • Run on a demo account for at least 1 week to verify execution quality

  • Verify spreads are within recommended limits (≤ 1.0 pip for EURUSD M1)

  • Confirm alert delivery (popup, push, email) works as expected

Money Management

  • Never risk more than 1–2% of account equity per trade

  • Adjust position sizing based on SL distance (which is dynamic with ATR)

  • Avoid trading during major news events when spreads widen

  • Monitor cumulative daily P/L and set personal stop-loss limits

Filter Customization

  • Start with the default 12-filter configuration

  • Add filters one at a time and observe win rate impact

  • More filters = fewer but higher-quality signals

  • Fewer filters = more frequent signals with higher variance

  • Find the balance that matches your trading style
