Description

This indicator helps you find important market turning points using fractal analysis. It studies price structures of fractals across multiple periods to detect possible reversals. It is useful for positional traders who already have a directional bias based on fundamental or technical models and want better timing for their trades.

  • Detects market turning points, which can start long trends
  • Signals do not repaint after appearing
  • Sends alerts by sound, email, push, or on-screen
  • Fully customizable arrow and line colors and sizes

How It Works

This is a lagging or reactive indicator. A fractal is formed by an odd number of bars where the middle bar is the highest or lowest point in the group. The signal is drawn only after all the bars in the fractal have closed. While this means the signal appears with some delay, it is still very helpful for traders who already know the likely market direction and are waiting for a good entry point.

Input Parameters

  • Min Fractal – The minimum number of bars in a fractal pattern. Must be an odd number like 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, or 13.
  • Max Fractal – The maximum number of bars in a fractal pattern. Also must be an odd number.
  • Max History Bars – How many past bars to analyze when the indicator loads.
  • Colors – Customize the colors and size of arrows and lines shown on the chart.
  • Alerts – Turn on or off alerts of all kinds (sound, email, push, on-screen).

Frequently Asked Questions

No, the indicator does not repaint. Turning points are confirmed only after a complete fractal formation is closed, meaning signals are final and will not change retroactively. This ensures full transparency and reliability in live trading.

The indicator uses fractal structures formed by an odd number of bars (e.g., 3, 5, 7, etc.) to identify potential market reversals. It analyzes multiple fractal sizes in parallel and plots only those that demonstrate enough momentum to potentially lead to a sustained price move, following a zig-zag pattern.

Yes, to some extent. Since a fractal requires multiple bars to form (with the turning point being the center of the formation), signals are confirmed only after the right number of bars has closed. However, this delay helps filter out weak or false signals and allows for higher-quality trade timing.

No, this is not a standalone trading system. It is a timing tool best used alongside your existing fundamental or technical analysis framework. Traders who already have a directional bias will benefit the most from this tool.

The indicator is designed to ignore weak reversals that lack the momentum necessary for a meaningful price move. This filtering mechanism helps reduce noise and false positives.

These parameters define the smallest and largest fractal sizes (in number of bars) the indicator should consider. Both values must be odd numbers (e.g., 3, 5, 7, etc.). A smaller minimum value will show more frequent, but possibly weaker, signals. A higher maximum value may detect stronger but less frequent turning points.

Yes, the indicator is compatible with all timeframes, from M1 to monthly charts. However, higher timeframes tend to produce stronger and more reliable reversal points due to smoother price action.

Yes, the indicator includes all types of alerts—visual, sound, email, and push notifications—so you can stay informed of new turning points without constant chart monitoring.

Yes, you can customize arrow colors, sizes, and line styles to match your charting preferences. This makes it easier to integrate visually with your existing analysis tools.
