THE CANDLE XTC is a supply-and-demand zone system for MetaTrader 5. It marks the levels where institutional orders rest, waits for price to stretch away from them, and trades the return. One concept — support and resistance — executed with six graded response tiers, account-wide profit harvesting, confidence-adaptive sizing and a hard drawdown circuit breaker. Runs on any instrument, coordinates across up to six charts, and exposes every threshold as a setting. Nothing is hardcoded.
| Why zones, and not another indicator? Price goes where the money is — where resting orders are stacked, because that is the only place large size can be filled. Big players bank there for the same reason. A zone is not a line you drew; it is the address where the size lives. When the fancy signals fail — in chop, in news, in the sessions that make no sense — the zones are still there. And price keeps coming back to them. |
Everyone else sells you price action, fair value gaps, order blocks — and years of screen time before it works. This does one thing instead, and does it properly.
Key features
- Zone-Based Entries
Entries trigger when price reaches pre-determined supply and demand zones drawn from real market structure — never on a model's opinion about the future. - Daily Anchor Bias
Every session gets one reference price. Every decision the system makes is measured as distance from it. - Six Graded Response Tiers
A small stretch gets a small response; a violent one gets proportionally larger. Every trigger distance and response weight is a number you control. - Confidence-Adaptive Sizing
The system reads how decisive recent price action was against its own range and scales its response up when conviction is high. Two setups at the same distance are not automatically the same trade. - Trend Hi-Lo Structure
Higher-timeframe swing structure is tracked continuously and drawn on your chart, so you can see what the logic sees. - Multi-Confluence Grading
When a zone touch lines up with that structure, the setup can be graded higher-conviction and sized accordingly. Optional, off by default. - Account-Wide Profit Harvesting
Profit targets are measured on your whole book, not per trade. When the combined result across every symbol clears a threshold, the system closes the lot — winners and losers together — and starts clean. - Multi-Portfolio Coordination
Run up to six charts and the instances recognise each other's positions, share state, and evaluate profit-taking and protection across the account — not per-chart in isolation. - Intelligent Hedging
When a position needs defending, the system can open the opposing side at the far edge of the zone, managed as part of the same book with its own targets and time limit. Fully switchable. - Adaptive Compounding
Position size scales against a reference balance you set, so a $10,000 account trades differently from a $1,000 one without touching a setting. The scaling is capped at a ceiling you choose. - Hard Drawdown Circuit Breaker
An account-level drawdown ceiling sits above everything else. Cross it and the system flattens — everything, immediately. - Quiet-Market Stand-Down
When structure goes flat and directionless, the system stops trading instead of forcing entries into noise. - Broker-Safe Execution
Every order is validated before it is sent — margin, stop distances, freeze bands, volume limits, session state. Orders that would be rejected are never sent, and a rejected attempt never re-fires in a loop. - Full Chart Transparency
A live status panel, the zones and anchor the logic reads, markers where it acted and where it declined to act, and result labels on every basket close.
Settings you control
| Group | What you set |
| Risk & sizing | Base size, growth cap, exposure ceiling, aggression multiplier |
| Compounding | Reference balance, scaling cap — or switch it off entirely |
| Strategy selection | Each entry family switches on or off independently |
| Response tiers | Six graded levels — trigger distance and response weight per tier |
| Session control | Trading windows, server offset, quiet-market filters, minimum spacing |
| Zone engine | Reference timeframes, refresh cadence, band-width thresholds |
| Trend structure | Swing lookback, pivot sensitivity, higher-timeframe selection |
| Confluence grading | Proximity tolerance, conviction multiplier, structure freshness |
| Hedging | Enable or disable; exhaustion target, age limit, loss threshold |
| Recovery | Enable or disable entirely; set the progression rate |
| Conviction sizing | Reference timeframe, lookback, scaling range — or switch it off |
| Profit harvesting | Multiple independent rails, each with its own depth and threshold |
| Protection | Drawdown ceiling, stale-position release, growth caps |
| Display | Status panel, zone lines, event markers, result labels |
Nothing is hardcoded. If you disagree with a default, it is a field — not a fork.
Requirements
| Platform | MetaTrader 5 |
| Account type | Hedging — required, the system holds both sides |
| Instruments | Any — FX majors, metals, indices |
| Timeframe | M15 chart; internal logic reads its own reference timeframes |
| Minimum deposit | Match to your sizing and drawdown settings |
| VPS | Recommended for continuous operation |
Honest notes
| This system averages into positions. When a move extends against it, it responds with additional, larger entries. That is the mechanism — not a side effect, and not hidden from you. It is exactly why the drawdown ceiling exists, and why it is the first control you should set deliberately. Zones hold more often than they break. They do not hold always. A sustained one-way trend that never returns to the anchor is the environment this system likes least. Know that going in. Defaults are a starting point, not a recommendation. Match sizing, the drawdown ceiling and the growth cap to your account and your broker's stop-out level before going live. Test it first. Strategy Tester, then demo, on your own broker's feed, on the instruments you actually intend to trade. Spread, execution and session hours vary — and here, they matter. You have heard this many times before. But still — your capital is at risk. |
