ApexSignal — Supertrend Signal System with MTF Scanner and One-Click Execution
ApexSignal is a complete trading utility that combines real-time signal detection, visual trend analysis, multi-timeframe confluence scanning and instant trade execution in a single tool. Built around a refined Supertrend algorithm with ATR-based risk management, it delivers clear Buy and Sell signals directly on your chart with automatic Stop Loss and up to three Take Profit levels for every signal.
No sub-windows. No clutter. Everything renders cleanly on your main chart.
Key Features
Smart Buy and Sell Signals
Supertrend crossover detection with built-in duplicate blocking. Each direction change produces exactly one clean signal with a large, clearly labeled arrow. Signal labels use ATR-based gap calculation to prevent overlapping with price bars during initial chart loading.
Automatic TP and SL Levels
Every signal automatically calculates and displays:
- Entry price (solid line)
- Stop Loss based on ATR multiplied by Risk Multiplier (solid line)
- Take Profit 1, 2 and 3 at configurable ratios (dashed lines)
All levels are drawn as horizontal lines with labeled price tags directly on the chart.
Dynamic Trend Cloud
A color-coded SMA ribbon fills the space between fast and slow moving averages, giving you immediate visual context for the prevailing trend. Cloud strength is adjustable (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) with smooth color blending against your chart background. Can be turned off completely.
Supertrend Line
The core Supertrend line is drawn directly on price with automatic color changes. Acts as dynamic support in uptrends and resistance in downtrends.
Multi-Timeframe Scanner
Built-in MTF scanner evaluates Supertrend direction across up to 6 timeframes (M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4). The collapsible MTF panel shows:
- Real-time direction per timeframe (LONG or SHORT)
- Overall confluence count and dominant direction
- Automatic alerts when the configured number of timeframes align
Each timeframe can be individually enabled or disabled. Evaluation uses closed-bar data only for stable, non-repainting results.
One-Click Trade Execution Panel
The built-in Trade Helper panel gives you instant control:
- Lot Size — editable field for position sizing
- TP Mode — cycle through Signal TP1, TP2, TP3 or Custom TP
- SL Mode — toggle between Signal SL and Custom SL
- Custom points — enter your own TP and SL in points
- BUY / SELL buttons — execute trades instantly at market price
- Live display — shows Entry, SL, TP1, TP2 and TP3 with the active TP highlighted
- Signal status — BUY SIGNAL ACTIVE, SELL SIGNAL ACTIVE or Waiting for signal
Panel Positioning and Customization
The panel can be anchored to 6 chart positions (Top/Middle/Bottom combined with Left/Right) with configurable X and Y margins. Panel background can be shown or hidden. All interface colors are fully customizable: bullish, bearish, entry line, panel background, border, text and dim text.
Free Directional Trading
You are never locked into the signal direction. Trading against the current signal opens the trade without signal-based TP/SL. Custom point values are always available regardless of signal direction.
Signal and MTF Alerts
Get notified when a new signal appears or when multiple timeframes align:
- Terminal popup alert
- Push notification to mobile
- Email notification
Signal alerts and MTF confluence alerts are independent and state-gated — they fire only on genuine changes.
Chart Cleanup
Optional auto-hide for chart grid and tick volumes on attach. Keeps your workspace clean without manual chart setup.
Optional Modules
Diamond Signals
Donchian-based breakout detection for additional confirmation. Subtle diamond markers appear near price bars. Disabled by default.
QQE Reversal Signals
Quantitative Qualitative Estimation reversal detection using smoothed RSI. Small triangle markers indicate potential reversals. Disabled by default.
Support and Resistance
Pivot-based S/R detection with configurable left and right bar lookback. Color-coded dotted lines adapt based on price position. Disabled by default.

Questions, suggestions or setup help — message me directly. Updates and improvements are released regularly based on user feedback.
I've been using ApexSignal in real trading conditions on MT5 (XAUUSD and NACUSD, H1/M15) , and the TP/SL levels are exactly consistent with the ATR-based formula described — I checked the math manually on several signals and it lines up perfectly every time. The MTF scanner has been very helpful for confirming direction before entering. Overall a reliable and well-thought-out tool. Thank you for the great work!
