Trident Swing Projector [MarkitTick]
Trident Swing Projector is an advanced MQL5 port of Charles Lindsay's quarter-swing projection methodology, designed for MetaTrader 5. It automatically detects swing pivots (A-B-C structures), filters them using multi-layered trend and momentum conditions, and projects quarter-swing targets ($25\%$, $50\%$, $75\%$, and $100\%$) complete with automated risk management and a fully customizable on-chart dashboard.
Key Features
1. A-B-C Swing & Quarter-Projection Engine
- Pivot Detection: Identifies significant swing points using configurable left and right pivot bars to map out foundational A-B-C market waves.
- Charles Lindsay Projections: Projects subsequent leg expansions based on fractional quarters ($25\%$ entry, $50\%$ target 1, $75\%$ target 2, and $100\%$ target 3).
- Flexible Unit Scaling: Supports measuring swing legs in absolute points or dynamic percentages.
2. Multi-Layer Filtering & Smoothing
- Trend & Pullback Filters: Validates setups using pullback percentage boundaries (e.g., between $23.6\%$ and $78.6\%$) alongside higher timeframe (HTF) trend alignment.
- Momentum & Smoothing Options: Integrates ADX threshold filters and multiple signal smoothing methods (SMA, RMA, WMA, HMA, VWMA) to eliminate false breakouts.
3. Automated Trade Tools & Dashboard
- Risk & Target Management: Automatically maps out stop-losses (with optional ATR or tick buffers), entry zones, and multi-tier take-profits with real-time risk-to-reward ($R$) calculations.
- Interactive Dashboard: Renders a clean panel on the chart corners displaying live setup states, direction, swing metrics, and filter statuses.
