Triple X Scalper is based on 3 types of triangular price patterns along with some volume analysis. It also must be traded at the times in day when the market is most active. The method is inspired by some of Linda Bradford Raschke's trading techniques.
The 3 price patterns are as follows :
System 1 Inside Bar = Looks for a volume spike followed by the inside bar formation. Also known as my indicator 3 Bar Break.
System 2 Triangle by Fractal = Looks for when the 2 previous highest and lowest fractals converge.
System 3 Elliots Triangle = Loos for when there a 5 previous fractals that form a triangular shape.
We can switch each system on or off in user inputs.
According to DOW theory triangles are really moments of equlibrium in the supply and demand of markets. These moments of equilibrium are like pauses in a sentence and so are a good way of getting in on a move early. Also as volume spikes are moments signalling a change in how market participants are fealing they are a good heads up to a possible change of some kind.
This EA places pending orders when these patterns occur and scalp some of the moves.
This EA should work on any market and any timeframe though is optimised for EURUSD 5m timeframe.
