Section 1: Context and Core Value
Identify Structural Breakout Retests and Momentum Continuations
Trading breakout pullbacks presents distinct execution challenges for active intraday traders and scalpers. Entering immediately on initial boundary breaks often leads to buying into sudden pullbacks, getting shaken out by volatile wicks during retests, or missing the subsequent leg due to hesitation when price validates the level. Without systematic criteria to differentiate a valid structural retest from a failing fakeout, traders risk repeated false starts.
This indicator addresses this issue by identifying when broken range boundaries transition into verified support or resistance. Instead of anticipating whether a boundary will hold, the tool provides structured on-chart validation as price tests the broken level from the outside, rejects adverse prices, and confirms continuation momentum.
The logic is built for active trading sessions when market participation and directional follow-through expand, offering systematic confirmation across high-liquidity symbols, liquid instruments, and actively traded markets.
Section 2: Entry Logic and Trade Management
Visual BUY Confirmation
- A setup develops after price breaks above range resistance and pulls back to retest the broken boundary from above.
- A bullish rejection candle forms and closes firmly above the level, confirming support.
- The signal confirms upon the close of the setup candle, using the open of the subsequent bar as the execution reference.
Visual SELL Confirmation
- A setup develops after price breaks below range support and pulls back to retest the broken boundary from below.
- A bearish rejection candle forms and closes firmly below the level, confirming resistance.
- The signal confirms upon the close of the setup candle, using the open of the subsequent bar as the execution reference.
Structural Stop Loss Placement
- The indicator calculates a protective Stop Loss reference positioned outside the recent structural retest swing.
- A configurable volatility buffer provides additional distance beyond the key pivot to accommodate spread fluctuations and short-term volatility.
4 Predefined Risk-to-Reward Targets
The indicator projects four structured R-multiple target levels:
- TP1 (0.5R): Initial objective designed for early partial scale-outs on immediate rejection follow-through.
- TP2 (0.8R): Intermediate milestone targeting steady continuation momentum.
- TP3 (1.2R): Extended target capturing broader trending impulse waves.
- TP4 (2.0R): Full expansion runner target for extended directional moves.
Closed-Bar Calculation Logic
- Signals and projected levels are calculated strictly upon candle close.
- Historical markers remain anchored to their original bars without recalculating, repainting, or shifting on future price data.
All-in-One Trading Toolkit on MT5
Purpose-built framework for systematic breakout-retest validation and trade execution.
Built to support your trading workflow: multi-symbol screening, multi-timeframe confirmation, transparent Entry-SL-TP visual structures, and on-chart historical backtesting.
Multi-Symbol and Multi-Timeframe Scanner
Avoid opening dozens of separate charts.
The integrated MTF SCAN dashboard monitors multiple assets simultaneously across:
M15, M30, H1, H4, D1
Dashboard overview:
- Active Signal Discovery: Shows currently active BUY/SELL setups.
- Signal Status Tracking: Displays basic status of tracked signals (active, near TP, near SL).
- Higher Timeframe Confluence: Highlights when a higher-timeframe trend aligns with a lower-timeframe trigger.
- Market Bias Summary: UP, DOWN, or FLAT reading based on the indicator's own trend filter.
- One-Click Navigation: Click any dashboard cell to switch your active chart to that symbol and timeframe.
Trade Plan Visualization: Entry, Stop Loss and 4-Tier TP Ladder
A full plan displayed on the chart rather than a single alert:
Entry -> Stop Loss -> TP1 -> TP2 -> TP3 -> TP4
- Visual risk/reward zones projected directly onto your candles.
- Basic lifecycle status tracking (Active, TP Hit, SL Hit).
- Non-Repaint Design: Signals lock once the bar closes and do not recalculate, shift, or disappear afterward. This describes the calculation logic only and does not imply any particular outcome.
Signal Filtering (Signal Brake)
Sideways consolidation and two-sided liquidity wicks can generate repeated false signals. The Signal Brake logic is intended to reduce this:
- Limits rapid BUY/SELL flip-flopping in tight consolidation ranges.
- Restricts new same-direction signals while a prior setup is still active.
- Requires a minimum R-distance before the next signal can trigger.
On-Chart Historical Backtest Panel
A built-in panel summarizes how signals performed on historical data for the current settings:
- Historical hit-rate breakdown across TP1, TP2, TP3, and TP4.
- Sample size shown for the configured lookback period.
- Highlights which TP level had the best historical hit-rate for that sample.
- A simple sample-size indicator to help judge statistical relevance.Note: these figures reflect past price data for the tested symbol, timeframe, and settings only. Past results do not guarantee future performance.
Multi-Channel Alerts
Stay informed while away from the chart:
- MT5 Desktop pop-up notifications.
