Sperandeo Cascade Trend System — Automated 1-2-3 Trend Reversal
Sperandeo Cascade Trend System is an advanced technical indicator for MetaTrader 5 that automates Victor Sperandeo’s (Trader Vic) classic trend reversal methodology using a dynamic No-Cut Cascade Ray System.
It eliminates subjective charting by identifying true structural swing highs and lows, constructing mathematically precise non-cutting trendlines, and tagging the classic 3-step trend change execution pattern.
The 1-2-3 Reversal Rule:
-
Point 1 (Breakout): Price closes beyond the active cascade trendline.
-
Point 2 (Test / Retest): Price attempts to retest the extreme but fails to make a new high/low. The indicator automatically draws a new counter-trendline.
-
Point 3 (Confirmation & Entry): Price breaks through the horizontal pivot established between Point 1 and Point 2, confirming structural reversal.
Key Advantages:
-
Algorithmic No-Cut Cascade: Trendlines precisely hug true pullback extremes without cutting through candle bodies or wicks.
-
Smart Zoom Lock Memory: Build the cascade on a wide overview (Scale 0), and inspect entries up close (+ ) without ray distortion or recalculation jitter.
-
Zero Lag & High Performance: Calculation runs strictly on bar completion and chart property changes, ensuring minimal CPU overhead and clean Strategy Tester runs.
-
Bilingual Support: Switch effortlessly between English and Russian on chart labels and status text.
