Hi all, on PAC with standard settings for FVG how would I set an alert for this as I can't see a dedicated FVG alert so would it be an imbalance alert ?
Correct, FVG is one type of Imbalance in the drop down menu
Just ensure you have the FVG selected under Imbalances
Thanks , so would this be the correct alert setting?
Yes, as long as you have FVG selected under the Imbalance settings
Yes I have, thanks
great, should work 
HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE.
sure is

good and u?

any idea why the alert for divergence show up 2 candles later? this is the 5 minute chart too
Alright i will
i see. it is showing up on the matrix the next square after the divergence. Does that mean it gets sent on the next candle close or does it show up there because that's the next candle after the divergence happened?
i'll activate it now and see where it shows up
I would test and bar reply so you get a feel for how it functions

Hello, someone using LuxAlgo from and in Melbourne Australia?
Whats everyones optimal setup look back peroid for the price action BOS CHOCH ect
I like mine at default 5 for internals
this is the only trading server I found that doesn't require a phone number to join
ugh
Don't ever plan on using any fancy indicators since they're all just delayed information from the chart... RSI divergences are just long wicks

Hey mate im new here do any of these paid indicators show support and resistance zones or fib zones for scalping bitcoin?

Is there a way we can get an alert when a candle closes outside of a bearish divergence
Have you checked out alert scripting/custom alerts?

good morning the ai chat isn't recognising NQ or NQ2! or MNQ as a ticket, can you advise? thanks
With the preparation of the new AI Backtesting Assistant update, we had to remove specific tickers due to inaccurate results and other technical reasons, we will try to have them back as soon as possible 🤝
when will this be back in play please? I was wondering in the past week all of the searches I was doing weren't marrying up, when will this be up and running again please?
i don't have an exact ETA but the team is trying to have them back as soon as possible though, apologies in advance
If I wish to cancel the ultimate subscription until the problems are resolved, how would I go about that?

Welcome to DAY 1 of 5. Don't rush taking that trade, let things settle down a bit. Watch before you leap. Happy Trading. 
quick question:
on the lux algo ict silver bullet indicator what do the red and blue circles mean?
should be detailed in the description
https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/ict-silver-bullet/
target high/low
@umbral bough
thnks I completely missed that
Iran and Israel have been at war for years the only reason the USA got involved is because they literally threatened us and the world about useing nukes I think it’s common sense that you should also understand it’s a big theorist group not Iran it’s self the Iran military doesn’t have enough resources or money to afford to fight back they would need USA and Israel help probably chinas to to get rid of the big theorist group it’s not even there falut iran military literally doesn’t have anything to do with this
Bruv I am just posting anything relevant to the war and past attacks nothing more
I know I just don’t want anybody to stress about this war with Israel and Iran
Bruv it's not the war
It's the markets that are getting fcked which is giving us stress
😂
just use luxalgo lol 🤣 but your right but there basically at war
seao with ti?
Hey guys is the free Luxalgo fibonaci range real time? and does a paid version offer better results?
I really enjoy using the free one.
real time as mentioned in the library
Ty so no need to pay for a delux model or is there something better?
You can also browse our exclusive toolkits here https://www.luxalgo.com/ LuxAlgo | World's Largest Provider of Trading Indicators
{external1} > 0 and {external2} > 25 and {custom_alert_step} True and {bullish_confirmation_any}
is this the correct way to reference the custom alert ste?
Hii
#🤝support message
Please test on your own as previously mentioned.
Also here are the docs again for the proper placeholders and operators for Alert Scripting.
"True" is nether a placeholder, nor an operator:
https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/toolkits/alert-scripting/operators
Hey there and welcome 👋
is there a way to make the buy/sell signals on the signals and overlays indicator to fire exactly 1 candle earlier?
These signal confirm at candle close, so theres not way to have them trigger before the confirmation of candle close. You can try to play around with the sensitivity to see if this would work for you...
yeah i noticed, however waiting for candle close tanks my strats winrate from 75.1% to 48.72% which isn't ideal. thanks for the response anyways
{close} > {external3}
if external 3 is the 200 EMA this is correct ?
thes the correct way to scipt that right?
{external1} > 0 and {external2} > 25 and {close} > {external3} and {custom_alert_step} and {bullish_confirmation_any}
External 1 is MacD
External 2 is ADX
External 3 is 200EMA
Custom alert step is set to Trend Catcher
Any Bullish conformation
this looks good to you?
You would need to test it out as we would as well. The team could not possibly know All these different scripting combos, especially with non LuxAlgo external indicators.
How about a little fundamental analysis on Clover health?
you have a large holding?
or you thinking about it?
Well, I could say that I am in the dollar range.
Maybe you guys should team up a little bit of TA and a little bit of fundamentals.
But my technical analysis using your tools and other tools alongside it, suggest that we are in a significant bombing scenario.
But time will tell.
But we’re still only halfway through the year I wonder what’s gonna happen next.
Hey @old crow just wondering if there is an updated tradingview link to the pinned backtest for Author: @Pedro Pe
🧪share-backtests strategy as the one there no longer works
Hey there, you would need to inquire with the member that created the strategy, if the member is no longer in the server, then you would need to optimize to current market conditions...
What is current market condition anyway

I made a huge mistake and longed oil when it opened yesterday morning, im at a huge loss now. do you guys think oil can go back up to 76?
Ouch
Nobody really knows
Could you just close this for a loss and reset yourself?
todays news
CLOSE THE TRADE, MAN
should i wait for crude inventory news? i really dont feel good about closing this trade at a huge loss
and its not even like i just put in money blindly ive been trading for 4 months now and my account overall is in profit
just this crude trade really messed me up
The ball is in your court.
just don't hold because your in a massive loss, is there any technical analysis saying it will go back up? as long as your not holding and hoping for the best.
I've done that early on in my trading and instead of taking a 1% loss i ended up taking like a 15% loss because i was just holding and praying it went up because it instantly went bad for me
It's knowing when to close your trade even if your in a loss in trading
I new in crypto and trading industry
Which strategy can I focus for life career.
I have
- Ict course
- Smc course
- Price action
- We Trade course
- Break and retest course
Tell me please
Yes i agree, i have to work on my risk management
thats entirely down to you, every trader is different and its about finding what works for you and what doesn't. You ask 10 people, you will get 10 different answers. Just try them all and see which you prefer once you've learnt them
They wil takes much time if crypto trader who succeed one tells me thier advice
people will be successful in them all, doesn't mean you will be succesful because someone else is. You need to try it out and learn the strategy then test it on a demo account to see how you perform before risking actual live capital
Learn ICT
TBH i haven't use any tools to it 99% potential. Still spinning around. Actually, i just don't get it 😩

Welcome to DAY 2 of 5. Remember you don't have to trade everyday, there will be some days that the brain and body need to reset and we traders must respect that. Do you know that if you don't trade in one day, the market will still be there tomorrow. Don't force it. Happy Trading. 
now the fun begins

Oh yes
is there an indicator for atr?
Have you checked out the Library?
correct
farea course
yes. i'm wondering if i've overlooked it
I believe the ATR is straightforward with the stock TradingView version, you could just use that. Unless you have a different spin on it that you are thinking of? If so, you could submit a request?

@old crow Nearly that time
yup 3-4 hours to go

Okay. Looking at anything?
nothing, watching gold a little
Same, watching gold
GC or XAU?
todays news
XAU
Let’s gooo nice drop on gold with this cease fire lol! Even though structure pointed bearish. Holding buys from 3308. Look like we gotta potential head and shoulders up at 3380ish hope everybody good
good deal!
Over here watching some home alone. Definitely gotta get better with this liquidity
Flow
What timeframe?
@void sluice @old crow can I use the luxalgo bot sentiment for crude?
Have you tried using the https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/824759457262469190?
I have been, what was the question @sly venture ?
is there any rule like risk only 1-1.5% per trade . do you follow this rule? if you exceed it do you receive an warning from ftmo? can our account get banned?
if my account balance is way above the starting balance i would like to sometimes trade with a risk of 3% maybe to get a bigger profit win. so im wondering what the rules exactly are.
i saw many people claiming they got banned because of this thats why im asking it
No, it’s not an official FTMO rule.
But… it's a widely recommended guideline because of FTMO’s actual hard rules, which are - Daily Loss Limit -5% max (of starting balance),Violation = fail -
Daily Loss Limit -5% max (of starting balance) Violation = fail
Max Loss Overall -10% (of initial balance) Violation = fail
FTMO won’t warn you just for risking 2%, 3%, or even 4% per trade
did you ever do risk like that and got nothing?
I personally never risked more than 1.5% per trade
actually its the way we must trade. if we have a succesfull strategy we can continue like this . there is no need for more. my question was only what would happen if i did it
thank you for your answer. hopefully soon i will be funded. currently at 106.000 first stage
Just take your time, small wins over time soon add up, protect your capital, best of luck @sly venture 🙂
yes i will do thank you very much . wish you too
Whats everyones views on XAU today ?
what timeframe ?
i will look at my strategy if there is any entry
Ive shorted from 3339 hoping to see a lot more downside
where is your stop loss and take profit levels
according to my strategy i dont have a confirmed signal yet . but it could be going in this direction as you drawed
my setup is a bit different
Its a free trade now almost moved to break even, lets see how it plays out
lets see . im only focused at GBPUSD currently
I always risk 0.5% on my funded FTMO account
Sometimes best to focus on the 1 instrument
Due to drawdown etc. it technically gives me 20 trades to reach the max DD if I have a bad run or 10 trades to hit the max daily DD - not that I take 10 trades a day
I second this, i only ever trade 1 pair per account. It’s easier to master the price behaviour of a certain pair than try monitor multiple pairs at same time and get distracted. Sometimes less is more
i do not have a exact stop loss im closing manually . i enter the trades based on my strategy . sometimes when i get a signal the market moves against my direction and hits the stop loss but im very sure that it will go back to my takeprofit . so i let it play out a bit.
Through backtesting you’ll learn the price behaviour of a specific pair and how it reacts at the session opens etc, or which news affects it more. But I don’t trade 60-30 mins before and after high impact news
Depends on your strategy, for me I always have a set stop loss which ranges between 3-10 pips and I adjust my lot size accordingly to risk 0.5% per trade
exactly im now very familiar with GBPUSD since i analyzed it for months
hey chat
I wouldn’t not have a stop loss, I’d always recommend one. Even if you are closing manually, there could be a unexpected news event or tweet and send that pairs price rocketing and breach your DD rules
i missed a good trading opportunity because i was writing a tweet lol. now waiting for another signal
GBP pairs require slightly bigger stop loss than other pairs I’ve found due to their volatility
I tend to always set a SL as XAU can move like train when your not on the screen 😆
Any pair can with unexpected events 🤣
I’ve learnt that the hard way on my personal account a few times in past
i alway check the main news if there is any i never saw that a last minute news had a big impact that i would lose too much money
Yup better to be safe than sorry
XAUUSD is extremly dangerous as you said . it can have major movements even if there is no news set lol
i lost 1 challenge because of it
Gold has snached many a soul 😆
there is a buy opportunity soon at GBPUSD

Bruv ppl wouldn't use you as their exit liquidity, u can share your edge here
the problem is it works only with certain stop loss and take profit levels. so everyone would enter at the same time. im not very familiar with how the market works but if a lot of people would enter would this cause the market to change its structure?
i mean its better that less people know the edge in this case
correct me if i am wrong
No that is only going to happen if a large amount of ppl get in the trade with loads of money
Which is not the case here don't worry ppl sometimes don't bother to follow the trade just leave it seen
i will think about it and share
Yes but when I try to use sentiment it gives me no option for crude
i haven't personally traded crude so not sure what the ticker is for that pair. I tried WTI/USD for crude and it worked (see picture)
it just gives a general overview of the sentiment, its upto you how you interpret that data along with your own technical analysis. I wouldn't just rely on the bot's data to make your trading decisions, always do your own technical analysis and use the bot as like a confluence in your trend direction bias
Got it, thanks
As Danny stated, the bot is just a general analysis. For actual charting analysis, I always go direct to my chart set-ups. Hope this helps.
Hey everyone.. just wondering if anybody uses the ORB indicator? Or do you use another indicator that has an option of the ORB in it? Just trying to figure out how to get alerts for when the signal comes through?
mstr 400?
whats mstr400?
i think it will hit it btested that 387.5
Micro strategy inc, it's a stock
ai says everytime it breaks r1 it squeezes
ahhhhhhhhh
nice, you watching anything else?
na
?
a little late?
@finite bear
One should actually buy mstr heavily tho
Their BTC reserves are going to be worth in the near future
Yes
so you approve this
Yes, as the Bell MOD
but it was late? you ok with this?
a bell is a bell!
Yeah
Absolutely
We will make sure you pay an entry fee before we can let you in
Does this red dot mean an impending reversal?
it could possibly indicate a reversal, you can read about reversal signals within the oscillator matrix here -> https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/toolkits/oscillator-matrix/reversal-signals

Hi, everyone, has anyone had any issues today with copy trading on apex pa accounts? I tried exiting out of a position on all my accounts but 2 of them stayed in the trade. I took video of what happed in case there’s any issues with Apex and I’ve sent a support ticket to get it hopefully fixed. Has anyone ran into a similar issue and was it resolved? Thank you
not sure, I have not heard anything today from other members.
Yeah
Does anyone know any good brokers that I can use to trade xauusd in the usa?
Is there any Multi Timeframe trading view indicator that plots FVG imbalance ?
who has a good 1 mid set up with luxalgo🤓☝️
Not certain if the https://www.luxalgo.com/library/ has one, you can have a look and see.
Have a look through https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1128499789437354106 As price is Fractal, strategies would usually require tweaking to suit the ticker/timeframe/trader strengths.
With all due respect it’s kind of hard to navigate I’ll just find a strategy myself
With the strong low or high or weak low or high with the price action indicator - what does the number next to the weak or strong represent? obvs i can answer that, but whats it based off?
Perhaps this post by Micky will help: #💬hangout message

good morning everyone
Morning ☕️
does anyone know if its possible to set an alert right before smart trail is being switched to bullish or bearish? because i need to enter immediately
That’s not possible. You can only set alerts for when it actually switches. As there’s no way to determine when it will switch until it actually switches from bearish to bullish and vice versa
could the developers add an option where we get an alert when the price hits the cloud area of the smart trail? can i request this feature what do you think?
that can already be achieved, there is an example in our sample custom alert channel here -> #1280142574509621392 message
oh perfect thank you very much

Welcome to DAY 5 of 5. The last working day of the month. Count your blessing for the month and enjoy the weekend. 
Hey. I was in a meeting and just finished. How are you doing, brother?
soooo late
I typed it but did not send it .
LOL
all good
Friday!
Oh yes. Friday is my ...........
whos in colombia?

there she is
I also like Thalia as well
There are women here who move better
ha
yeah, really
they have special joints
no
ha
What do you trade mostly?
Cool
I like that strategy
Gives you a set time period to look for a trade set up.
That’s it
No need to stare at charts for whole day.
Okay. I might join
In terms of the indicator itself is the premium price action toolkit more accurate than the free smart money concepts ?
Eg draws out certain structure more accurate
different algorithm, different calculation methods
Nah bro how the hell do convos go from trading to something like this 😭🙏
Great Live Stream we just had for Friday today 
Happy Friday and weekend everyone 🎉
YouTube is taking a long time today for processing today's recording.
Will post when the processing is completed.....
@old crow or @void sluice Can you remember when you guys did a live stream on alert scripting.. You probably have done a couple any chance you can point me in the right direction
yes I actually saved some of them in a thread, let me find
@clever stag Here you go, I posted a few live streams I did for the scripting.
Please remember, this is my personal take on how I would start simple with scripting.
But everyone should also refer back to the official overview video that is posted within the Alert Scripting Docs.

I’m sold mate I just purchased it now
What's up everyone? New to futures, been trading options for a few years with decent success but the appeal of futures have always been there. Paper-traded the last week and half on Micros (tend to keep a small trading account) and traded for real today with a solid profit. Love the premium indicators!
welcome! we have a futures room #📈futures-stocks-chat
Yeah my bad not sure why I posted that in here lol.
Hey now worries, no big deal.....
What symbols you trade?
For me, I do NQ and ES.
I shold stay with ES, but the addiction gets to me with NQ, LOL
Recording posted:
#1199356285813006367 message
Traded micro NQ today with my real account for first time but since I started paper trading been mainly doing MNQ, MES, M2K, YMU.
Think I'll stick with MNQ and MES from here on out.
Yeah, the full NQ is stressful, LOLLL
I don't have the capital for the full NQ lol. But maybe mini's in the future - no pun intended lol.
Any idea how to setup an alert when trend strength flips Bullish to Bearish or vice versa?
The dashboard color of the Trend Strength is not base on Trend direction, but based on most recently signal.
Trend Strength, is the degree of strength, regardless of direction. So if you want alerts based on the green or red dashboard, then create the alerts for confirmation signals.
https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/toolkits/signals-overlays/dashboard#trend-strength
Does anyone know the following:
1: How reliable are the backtesting engines?
2: how do you us the backtesting engines? (I have ultimate plan)
3: How would you compare Lux algo to Quantvue?
4: what are the best lux algo indicator combinations and settings for someone who trades NQ and GC on 1m and 5m charts?
signal means the manual sensitivity values or autopilot sensitivity mode like mid or long term?

any 1 else feel like the signal indicator is a bit off today with its signals? not getting signals when i should be
Hey there, this all depends on current market conditions, your risk tolerance’s, symbol, timeframe, etc
In my opinion, settings should be analyzed and optimized continuously, according to market conditions.
Hi, I'm new here, I was playing around with the AI backtester assistant . So one thing I wanted to test is this.
Signals & Overlays, 5-minute timeframe
Entry Conditions:
Long: Confirmation Normal Bullish, Contrarian Downtrend, Neo Cloud Bearish
Short: Confirmation Normal Bearish, Contrarian Uptrend, Neo Cloud Bullish
Exit Condition: None
Wondering how I can set this? can anyone help. Thanks!
In Backtester, you will use confirmation signals, then you need to add another SO’s toolkit and use that as contrarian then use in the externals of the backtester.
Happy NY Saturday morning ✌️
Happy Sunny Saturday

can we treat trend catcher as some ema , and create alert for price bounce off trend catcher after switch
Trend catcher is a trending type of indicator, with its own ebb and flow, and yes you can create alerts with it. Try Custom Alerts or Alert Scripting
any example for trend catcher bounce ?
@junior egret I removed scammer that tagged you
Here are the docs for the alert options as well as posted examples of various types of alerts:

Signals & Overlays® indicator has various alert conditions based on each signal mode included in the indicator, see examples of how you can set these up on TradingView on this page.
This to i know now , wanted to check if a direct example for that , anyhow could get that
You would need to experiment and try, as I would need to as well.
got it , now i have trained my gpt for that , do u think if it would be usefull if i share that as plugin ?
Give it a try, and if you hit a road block, post your image of settings and charts, and we can try to see if it possible to accomplish. @junior egret
Our alert features are not designed to be used with the public gpt version.
You could use that personally on your own if you would like.
In backtester , can we mix and match two indicators ? is it possible via custom alert in back tester , I dont see any supprt for any India scrips in AI backtest
There are external sources that can be used in the entry conditions for the backtesters.
what option shall i select if say i have to say hyperwave bullish ?
Hyperwave > Hyperwave signal

As an Asian-American living in the U.S., I am thinking of moving to Hawaii 🍍🏝️
Due to the following reasons:
-
Hawaii is the only state where the majority of the population is Asian. In 2023, 57% of Hawaii’s population was Asian.
-
Much closer to fly to Asia from Hawaii. A 12 hour flight ✈️ to Asia
Compared to 21 hour flight to Asia from New York.
-
Similar costs of living of where I am living.
-
I will first visit and see.
Other info:
The states with the next-largest shares of Asians were California (18%), Washington (13%), Nevada (12%) and New Jersey (11%).
..
Asians comprise of more than 65% of world population. Top two races in the world are China 🇨🇳 and India 🇮🇳 .
You can browse our library to see if anything free indicators would fit your style https://www.luxalgo.com/library/ LuxAlgo | Trading Indicator Library
“Ken Travels Hawaii” 🤙
I would love to visit. Since I asked some Asian groups which island has the most asians and they all said Oahu. Yeah 🍚
But going to Asia was the ultimate Asian experience.
I also chose various Asian and Middle Eastern airlines to go to Asia too.

you bought premium? worth it?
hey team
The little alert squares that show up on the screen when conditions are met. Is there a way to get them to overlap on multiple indicators at once? when you add more than one it overlaps the previous one so you cant see the alert squares anymore
you cannot overlap them, if you have 2 toolkits on your chart you can put the bar on the top on one of them
yeah so i can have two on the screen at a time. one at the top and one at the bottom. but no more?
THere's a good idea. make the alerts for each indicator sit slightly above the previous one so they dont overlap
you can have multiple layouts, or you can suggest this in #🔍feature-requests
for backtesting they all need to be on the same screen sadly
Quite a few options you can select in the Style tab, just distinguish each one by the color. With this setup you can have 5.
that's perfect! i need 4. Thank you
🔥
why is the alert system failing to detect when im in the discount zone? step one is set to be discount. I am clearly in the premium zone. I have two step after that which it detects fine.
If you want the condition to be true for all steps, set it to All instead of 1 in the Step number.
if i change to all then it wont follow the right order correct? the order was discount zone, structure change then bullish OB entry
Depends on what you want to happen. You were asking earlier "I am clearly in the premium zone" implying that the other conditions needed to occur IN the discount zone
correct
There's your answer for why I said "All"
im with you. So in theory i can just set the premium/discount to all and the other two to step 1 and 2!
if i set market structure to all as well does that need to trigger on the same candles as the OB or would be classed as a bullish state until market structure changes to bearish etc?
Better to select Uptrending or Downtrending as a filter, then All, rather than a trigger such as CHOCH/BOS/OB, etc
is there a way to get alerted for candle patterns like engulfing etc?
as the next step
Currently no alerts for candle patterns within our exclusive toolkits. You could try a 3rd party indicator for an external source.
Hey everyone,
I've been trading for about 3 years now. I'm currently trying to simplify my analysis setup — cutting down on too many indicators and focusing on fewer, high-quality tools that give me clear confluences.
I use TradingView, Exocharts, and TradingLite, and I'm considering subscribing to LuxAlgo. I’m looking for feedback from people who actually use it:
Is LuxAlgo worth it for someone aiming for a cleaner, more efficient approach to trading?
Also, is Premium enough, or is Ultimate really worth the extra cost?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
the ultimate one includes the backtesters, so if you're a data guy and you like to tweak things and look at the numbers - that's the plan to go for.
we also have a 30 days money back, so if the toolkits are not for you you can get a refund - can't beat it
The money back its possible if I do a plan for the year ?
should be for any plan, but you can double check with the support team on our website
Thanks for advice
We have any mod in discord that if I send a message can help off this , I ONLY to have aswer more fast

Thanks Micky, but you Ai bot its really good. I aswer my questions very well.
Sure, let us know if you have any other questions
How can we get access only to price action ?
We offer two subscription plans

todays news
What is hide overlap in price action concept?
Hi there - if you hold your mouse over the little 'i' it gives you a description of that specific feature (see picture)
But I can’t understand
Can you plz explain to me in simple words
It will hide previous order blocks that overlap if you have 'hide overlap' enabled. (see pictures)
- you will see it hides a previous order block compared to the first image where two order blocks are overlapping
Many years ago I was like that
But now I'm better. ✌️😅.
What would be the best video to watch to help understand setting alerts, so that if say my 3 rules are met in a strategy then the chart will flag 1,2, then 3 for me to manually to enter ? Cheers guys 🙂

Hey guys, LuxAlgo newbie here. I know I still need to experiment and all, but just too many messaging have a head start, any recommendation regarding sensitivity selection for swing trading the 4h charts? Trading everything major really, fx, crypto, commodities. Do you keep the sensitivity fixed or do you always adapt? It seems a bit like a hassle to constantly have to adapt this. Grateful for any shared experience.
And I assume neo cloud is best for swing trading?

Hi i guess because i mentioned another indicator package my post was deleted. But im trying to get advice before I spend money on yet another indicator package. I am hitting the wall when it comes to actually creating a trading strategy. I am not a newbie but I am certainly not good enough to call myself even a trader at this point. The last indicator package i bought gave me tons of information but one needs to create ones own strategy. Correct? Arent there any already tried and true strats that can be followed for beginners using the paid packages? Ill stop there.
You are correct in your assumption that one must create their own strategy. Although you could copy another members posted strategy here, but any strategy that you create or copy should be optimized according to your own trading style.
I see that the Ultimate package has a backtester... I hate to sound dumb. But the past few months have humbled my opinion of my intelligence. SO is this AI tester user friendly? I mean truly simple to use? Ive tried my own backtesting but could never nail down a successful strategy. Keep in mind this was after months of trading courses including all the trade videos on the package I bought and I simply could not create a startegy that works. So im very shell shocked when it comes to the idea of trying to learn another slew of indicators only to be left to my own ability to turn them into something I can be successful with.
i once tried it but it was too complicated for me. maybe i am just dumb idk .
its was like several months ago cant remember all the details
I personally really like the backtester, it may take a bit to get used to though but it's really powerful
U have severe self doubt nothing else tbh
I am feeling totally beaten down ill be honest. I have spent 4-5 years as a casual trader(more of an investor mostly) but I have been retired for a couple years. A year ago i decided to dedicate myself to learning the trade. Since that time I have paid for 2 full indicator packages. I have spent months going through all the trading videos incl some live classroom stuff to learn each indicator. But when it came to making a strategy... No luck. Nothing i could repeat successfully. Someone metioned try LUXAlgo. Here i am. But im faced with same scenario... Pay for indicators.. spend days if not months learning indicator(no problem there).. But ultimately I have to create a successful trade plan.. BIG problem there. Yeah i feel pretty stupid now.

@void sluice -I had one more question for you. I was exploring the LuxAlgo ORB and Targets indicator for a breakout strategy and noticed that the ORH and ORL levels weren’t updating right after the first 15 minutes of the market open. Later in the day, the values seemed different and not based on the initial 15-minute range. Is there a specific setting I need to adjust to make it reflect the correct range?
I've not noticed this but if you are using a 15 minute ORB but on a 2 minute timeframe, it may cause issues as 2 cannot go into 15? So maybe that's where the issue arises as its struggling to plot the 15 minute levels on a 2 minute candlestick chart as the duration would be either 14 minutes or 16 minutes and not 15? (This is just my guess)
- You could try say the 1/3/5 min timeframes as see if the results slightly differ from the 2 minute chart.
Will check that . Thanks.
any other questions, just fire away 🤝
@void sluice - One more final question for the day . I went through micky's video - it was crisp and good to learn from the basics . I have few things to check with you though .
I am using price action concepts to identify potential support and resistance zones.
For trend confirmation, I would like to rely on Smart Trail and Trend Tracer.
I have a few questions:
If I am scalping using the 2-minute timeframe (since 1-minute feels too fast for me). Are Smart Trail and Trend Tracer reliable for this timeframe? and can you help me with better settings for the below?
- What’s the best option to use for Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) levels? - Signals?
- For the ML signal classifier signal sensitivity - what's the best value for scalping ?
- If I need to use the Autopilot Sensitivity setting For scalping, should I select Short-Term to match my timeframe? Or is it better to choose Long-Term to reduce noise and avoid fake outs?
I see these settings in my indicator .
It just depends really what sort of trader you are, for me personally if i'm trading the 1 minute then i like to look at the overall trend bias for the 5/15 minute using PAC & S&O especially the Neo Cloud (i like how it gives a good overall trend bias). So I'm taking trades in the direction of the higher timeframe. If the higher timeframes are all bullish, it wouldn't be wise to be trying to take shorts on the lower timeframes and counter trending. As the saying goes - the trend is your friend 😂
In regards to take profit / stop loss it varies dependant on the trader, some have a fixed stop loss / take profit what's identical on every trade regardless of the volatility. Others like to place their stop loss behind the recent high/low and opting to target Order Blocks for their take profit level or you could backtest the in-built SL/TP element and see what results that yields
There is no right or wrong answer to these questions as there are so many variables and no two traders are the same. People could use the short-term auto pilot for scalping or some people could use medium/long-term. Long/mid term will produce less signals and be less noisy though
It just takes time finding what works for you and what doesn't, as someone could tell you their exact strategy but it may not suit your trading style. We also have a https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1128499789437354106 section where you can take a look at how other members have created strategies using our toolkits for ideas when trying to create your own strategy too
- I'll link you to a few videos what relate to the S&O toolkit which you may find useful:
Optimal sensitivity - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GShaZrZrcg&t=4s
ML Classifier (filtering trades) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zXo2PH60EA&t=33s
How to trade using S&O - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-o4jJcQfF4
Got it! The Neo Cloud ? — I will definitely explore it further. And thank you so much again for the detailed explanation and for sharing those video links — I will make sure to go through them.
Also, just curious — have you shared any of your scalping strategies anywhere? I would really love to see how you approach it. It is always helpful to learn from experienced traders and then tweak the strategy to suit our own style?
Micky has some videos on his 5 neo cloud set up, he uses 5 S&O toolkits on his chart each with a different indicator overlay between 1-5. (see picture for reference). He has talked about it in some of his previous streams too. No worries, apologies the message was a little long 
Yeah i've shared a strategy I'm trading at the moment here: https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1229778919679590500 which also includes a chart link to save my settings to your layout. But as with any strategy, its open for members to optimise it to fit their own trading style as my strategy may not suit your style of trading
Awesome !! Will take a look . 💜
Good morning Danny, Could ask a few question as well?
Sure, fire away 🙂
@void sluice thank you, i'm fairly new to trading as someone.Just introduced me to luxalgo from another discord. I recently joined. I'm currently using the price action concept and the screener. Specifically, i'm using a supply and demand strategy. Can you recommend these are some settings within those two programs or another program that that would be able to assist me a little better with that strategy?
By the way, I focused oh HTF
Welcome to the LuxAlgo community first of all 👋🏻 PAC and the PAC screener are great as you can use the screener to see even higher timeframes than your current chart without actually having to change your chart timeframe. I love the Order Blocks in PAC, they give great levels of support/resistance. As i mentioned in my other messages above, i really do like using higher timeframe neo clouds to guage the trend direction bias.
I tend to keep my PAC to default settings except i have 'Show Last: 10' in regards to order blocks so i can see the last 10 as opposed to the default 5 but apart from that I keep it as it comes when you load it onto your chart. Oh and I like the 'Show Strong/Weak HL' enabled (this is the same as premium and discount but different visuals and i don't look to much into the % displayed)
Why don't you look at the percentages, you don't believe they're accurate?
It’s not that I don’t think they are not accurate, it’s just for my psychology. As with trading anything can happen and it’s a game of probability and predicting where the market will move next.
So for example if it said strong low 90% I would just look at it as it’s a strong low then check if there is any other confluences such as an order block (support) is near the strong low too instead of thinking right it’s 90% so it won’t break
Just like premium and discount zones - that’s how I treat it but I prefer a little clean line as opposed to a shaded area that’s all
@void sluice - Once I copied the chart to my layout, I noticed that the second Signals & Overlays (S&O) indicator was hidden. I assume we need to enable it and adjust the settings as outlined in the Strategy section.
-
However, in the second S&O indicator, I don’t see the ML Classifier color option under Advanced Settings. Is this the setting that controls the signal colors shown in the screenshot?
-
I cant see the trend tracer and TP/Sl levels marked on the chart - Am I Missing something?
@void sluice Thank you.
I have definitely learned in my short few months of trading that nothing is absolute. I just joined the YouTube channel. Is this the best place to learn about settings and all the programs that are available to us? Do you think the two programs I have onboard works my strategy? Or is there anything else you would suggest?
good morning everyone
If you used the chart link provided in: https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1229778919679590500 it should look like this picture attached. I've added an alert script to show 'Conditions Met' meaning the entry is valid when the elements algn and hidden them from my chart to make it look cleaner without actually displaying the elements. I've disabled the second indicator at the moment as im using the in-built 'X' exits for my exits. There is no stop loss or take profit displayed but i usually enter when it says condition met and my stop loss is the top/bottom of the conditions met label and then my take profit is when a 'X' is produced.
But that doesn't mean you have to follow that identical, members have adopted their own stop loss and take profits using the strategy as a base.
Any questions regarding my strategy, you can use the strategy thread too 🙂
Here is how it would look with the stop loss and take profit on the chart (id obviously drag the take profit down until a 'X' is produced.
We have some good general resources linked here: https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1048529827243761747 but if there is anything specific you'd like in terms of videos (IE: say you wanted a video on the volumectric order blocks) i should give you the link instead of you searching for it. But all our videos are on our Youtube and also our documentation here: https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/getting-started/introduction (you'll see on the left hand side, a side tab with all the toolkit documents, most of them contain a video breakdown of that particular toolkit) and also includes alert documentation for each toolkit.
The indicators you are using seem solid, it would be best you experimenting to see what works for you and what doesn't
Morning 👋🏻
ok got it @void sluice . so in the screenshot here - I see Exit buy but I dont see Condition met to buy !! why so ? 🤔
Also in this screenshot I see ML classifer 3 - but no condition met signal to buy - is it looking for some other confluence too ?
Thats because i've only enabled the strong buy and sell signals, however on the alert scripting its not possible to only script the 'X' exits that relate to the strong buy/sell signals so it will produce the exits for signals i have hidden too. So you just ignore the occasional exit buy when there wasnt a signal.
If conditions met wasnt produced then that signal isnt valid as part of my strategy as i like various elements to align when the signal is produced. So if they all dont align it will not produce a conditions met confirmation
perfect !! got it ! Thanks . and I can use these on both 1 min and 2 min? or do you inisit on using it only on 1 min TF for testing this out for myself .
Thank you, brother. Much appreciated. Have a great day!!!!
I've only tried it on the 1 minute but that doesn't mean any strategies posted wont work on other timeframes/tickers. Thats where you can experiment yourself and see if you can use it on a ticker/timeframe of your choice
You're welcome, you too 😎
Thank you for taking the time to guide me — truly appreciate it 💜 Wishing you a good night or a wonderful morning, wherever you are!
Thats why we're here! You too 🤝
Whoooaaaaaa 😮
Hi everyone - I've just started using LuxAlgo S&O and trying to backtest it on MNQ or SPX, but all the combinations of configurations and how they change the performance on it is twisting me in circles. I trade trends or short scalps in index futures and options on mostly intraday timeframes, but can also hold overnight.
I' a bit lost with the number of different parameters which can change the outcomes considerably, and it's not easy to be systematic with the backtesting as often toggling or altering one parameter by a small amount can have drastic changes on performance.
I've been adjusting the long and short conditions on Signals and have adjusted tps and sls to different tick numbers, but I can't seem to get any decent performance.
Should I be ignoring Signals and trying trend catcher or tracer instead?
Does anyone have any decent settings to recommend or point me to anywhere which discusses this already?
Thanks in advance for any tips or guidance.

Yeah
@old crow

You need it.
How do I automate a strategy around lux algos signals?
Is anyone else having problems with tradingview alerts not giving notifications?
And how do I activate the “reversal probability” setting?
Welcome to LuxAlgo community 👋🏻
please be advised that LuxAlgo does not provide direct support for automation, as this is facilitated through third-party software, and the process varies depending on the program being used. The backtesters can facilitate such automation; however, beyond adjusting settings on the indicators provided by LuxAlgo, we would not be able to provide further advice.
Feel free to ask other ultimate members in https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1038363244873666571
I havent noticed any issued at the moment
@regal notch You can check out https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1178046672668991498 in relation to information about the backtesters and you can also check out our previous community streams here: https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1199356285813006367 which talked about the toolkits, how to utilise them in trading along with tips and tricks too 🙂

Hi there, all our plans and pricing can be found here-> https://www.luxalgo.com/pricing/
Happy Thursday and Happy July 4th Weekend 💥
Welcome to DAY 4 of 5. Tomorrow is 4th of JULY, bank holiday in US. Don't be greedy, close that trade before the money return to the market. Let's use tomorrow to prepare for next week. Happy Holiday. 
hi which one of these options do i need to modify so that the 50% of the imbalance shows?
none of the options in the screenshot can do that
question, is htere a way to get orderblocks instantly, instead of waiting a few ticks
they're confirmed at the candle close, after a CHOCH or BOS
@old crow 🥂
yo yo
then how do i do it?
it's a free open source indicator, you will need to code this yourself
Weekend comes early. Any plan?
BBQ
where's my invite?
@old crow can you help me setup Luxalgo oscilaator matrix setting for stocks.. i am using defult setting. not sure if its best for 15 min chart time frame
For my personal use, I use default on all asset classes....
something like this?
how do i set alart when Squeeze is at 99% or 100% for Entery on Luxalgo signal overlay
Just reset the settings back to default, bottom left corner drop down menu
@candid garden For the Squeeze, you would need to use the external source within the Custom Alerts, here is an example

Happy USA Independence Day July 4th 
Nice
hi guys today i lost my ftmo verification step account
due to slippage which occured during news time . instead of 1300$ loss it stopped with -4000$
stop trading news lol
i didnt plan to....
i enteres 30min before news i think and then i thought its too bad to stop with -300$ and i said i will risk it
put my stop loss and boom
blowed my account
i learned it the hard way i didnt know that this could happen lol
anyway. i will buy monday a new 100k challenge account and continue
just wanted to share my experience hope it doesnt happen to anyone else xD
.
I have quesiton. How does choch calculate for this indicator
Based on the indicators set algorithm, as there is no feature to adjust lookback length, like our exclusive toolkit Price Action Concepts would have.
You still lurking around your charts?
Hey guys, Does the S&O indicator repaint?
I was tweaking some of the indicators and parameters and i ended up with a strat that has a 70% winrate, 1.5 Profit factor and 19% max drawdown with a P&L of 130% based on 120 trades in backtesting. How reliable are these statistics in comparison to live trading with the same strat?
Also, your Discord has not been connected to the LuxAlgo exclusive channels yet.
Go to your welcome email, there should be a Discord link to get you connected to the subscribed channels that are included with your subscription
Also our exclusive toolkits do not repaint, they confirm at candle close.
@summer quarry If you are an Ultimate member, there are additional resources here for the Backtesting and AI Assistants within the Ultimate community channels.
With the price action concepts indicator what range does everyone use for their OB setting?
No. I will over the weekend. And you?
Relaxing for now
That is good.
Micky, having watched some of your excellent livestreams, i noticed you often trade scalps at 1 minute or more. You also have several Neo cloud ranges concurrently. I assume they are in multiples of 1,2,3 mins and so on. Is this your normal standard way of trading or do you use a good mixture of swing trades also??
I am tempted to subscribe to one of your 2 packages as I like the visuals of the neo cloud. I have started using the Expanded cloud recently released and I quite like it. so I assume NEO is one step up????
the multiple neo clouds are not different timeframes, but different indicator overlay lengths which can range from 1-5. The expanded cloud visually looks like the neo cloud but they are different.
@old crow It says i am connected, but i dont have access to the premium channels yet
you can use id:browse to add all the channels you would like or deselect as part of your subscription 🙂
That great to hear and thanks for the feedback. Yes I do scalping as well as a few swings a month. Same template
is essental plan still available?
not even for +2y members?
Unfortunately, the Essential has been discontinued
Welcome to DAY 5 of 5 and bank holiday. Let's be wise. If you take a break today, you come back to the market on Monday the 7th of July. Guess what, Your profit will wait for you. Happy Long Weekend.

hello i am a new user of price action indicator and signal overlay. i usually trade in XAUUSD pair. i need configuration.
i am very interested in liquidity grab, sell side liquidity, buy side liquidity. but i feel like the price action concept indicator is just ordinary, almost no different from smart money concept
are you a subscriber? your discord account is not connected to luxalgo
done
I really like ICT concept, and will combine ICT concept from luxalgo and priceaction. but I see no difference with the free version. maybe my opinion is wrong.
Hello, I can't find the signal settings properly, can you help me?
Hi there, what do you mean signal settings properly?
You can take a look at how other members are using our toolkits here: https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1128499789437354106 or as you have ultimate you can also take a look at members strategies for the backtesters too here: https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1181429249744306216
any other questions just let us know
In a nut shell with the Price Action Concepts toolkit you also get a lot more features such as:
Volumetric Order Blocks and Internal Activity,
Internal and swing structures length settings,
Auto detection of patterns,
Auto detection of liquidity trend lines,
FVG's (double FVG / Inverse FVG / opening gap / volume imbalance),
Liquidity Grabs,
Loads of ways to set up alerts.
(IE: Custom Alerts / Alert scripting)
All these additional features hence why its the paid version, it will always be better compared to the free version Smart Money Concepts.
I am doing a gold transaction, what are the settings for this?
5m and 1m time frame
That’s for you to decide after experimenting to see what signal settings suits you. No two traders are the same so what setting suit one person may not suit your trading style.
Also take a look at what other people are using in their strategies using the channels I linked you here: #💬hangout message

Hello, Im new here and I am reviewing the videos for the indicators. I would like to get a better understanding of these metrics in-depth. I already viewed the optimal sensitivity but would like to know about the rest of them (in-depth). Is there a video for each one?
hello, have a look here https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/toolkits/signals-overlays/dashboard
Thank you. I have reviewed this just now and it has been helpful. I would like to get information on the Squeeze metric. The doc does not go in-depth into the indicator. For example, the symbols, what do they mean. In the doc, there was only one symbol.
Does this mean that when the squeeze breaks the trend is generally upward?
Im a bit unclear on this.
High squeeze could mean a setup to look for
Does that mean the trend is upward when the squeeze breaks? Sorry trying to understand
Does not mean a direction, but could mean it might break out soon
The color of the dashboard cell is based on recent signal
Got it. What does the circular symbol mean in terms of squeeze and what does the down arrow mean in terms of the squeeze?
Just icons
That’s all
This is what I mean by a circular squeeze symbol?
While the up arrow means a "High Squeeze" what does the circular mean?
You mean these?
Yes Sir
@old crow Thank you. I also suspect that a Green shade versus a Red shade also have no meaning in terms of the shade?
The indicators are legit
Looking at the optimal sensitivity on this chart, what does zero represent? I know we must adjust sensitivity based on the chart and timeframe we are looking at in signals and overlay but what does zero mean because the sensitivity adjustment does not go down to zero?
the chart is too blurry to zoom in but it looks like a visual bug -> try to refresh tradingview
I have reported this to the dev team, will let you know(might be a bug)
I have one more question and thank you for answering them as I try to understand the metrics better.
That chandelier is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
the optimal sensitivity is based on the last 250 candles, I believe it's showing 0 because the stock itself does not have 250 candles on the weekly timeframe. if you drop to daily timeframe, the optimal sensitivity is there.
Looking at the same chart, reviewing the price action concepts where the orders are lining up (circled in red and yellow). I see under the red circled area the buyers are outpacing the sellers, should I expect the trend to be rejected at that area or continue pushing forward past this area? In the yellow circled area, the sellers are outpacing the buyers, should I expect the trend to break down once it reaches that or is this just a support area?
Here are some resources regarding the Volumetric OrderBlocks
- Take a look at this short LuxAlgo video on these features, and the docs.

I can't wait to purchase this indicator and test it with real money
Hello, hope your Sunday is going well. I have a question on the backtester for S&O. What is the difference between the sensitivity rating on the backtester versus the auto-generated optimal sensitivity rating. I find them conflicting. I backtested on TSLA, and saw that it recommended a sensitivity rating and the optimal sensitivity which also was recommended, both different of course and different results with one being more profitable than the other.
Two separate settings. They are different with different results. Unless I am not understanding your question?
Here are the docs for the stand alone toolkit S/O’s pertaining to the signal sensitivity https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/toolkits/signals-overlays/signal-settings Signal Settings | Signals & Overlays | LuxAlgo
And docs for the Optimization Dashboard https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/backtesters/s-o/optimization Optimization | Backtester (S&O) | LuxAlgo
When I run the backtester, the dashboard gives out the advanced optimization results. Should I use the sensitivity setting from that dashboard to change the sensitivity setting in the S&O or use the optimal sensitivity setting to change that?
Regarding this Optimization Dashboard, yes you may see some differences when compared to the stand alone toolkit at the same value. The Optimization Dashboard should be used a a general result-feedback, as a "base-line," to get you pointed in a direction. Here are some posts that were made by our team, pertaining to the the optimization dashboard and some use-case:

Has anyone automated luxalgo indicators with pine connector? I'm trying to do it and as far I understood it's not compatible with pine connector. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Nope. As per pine connector documentation, luxalgo isn't compatible with it. That's why I'm asking if anyone has done it or not.
be careful, spammer tagged you

@old crow 👋🏻
💪
How was your weekend, brother?
too short, and yours?
Just relaxed . Now back to my charts.
Did I see Luxalgo post on insta something about a strategy with 100% win rate? Lol
no strategy has 100% win rate all the time, its trading and there will always be losses at some point
100% winrate is possible
But ur returns will be insignificant
And ur lose would be much greater if it ever happens
100% would mean you would never lose
So it wouldn't matter if your wins were insignificant
You're talking about 99.99% win
It can be 100% for years and then one day it’s all gone
Then it wouldn't be 100%
That’s not how it works
We calculate the past results we don’t say maybe my winrate is 90% but over billions of trades
😭
When we say the winrate we’re speaking about the past results it’s never about the future
hello , I am new to LuxAlgo premium indicators... I see sl and tp but How can I know Enter price?
??
Hi there and welcome to the LuxAlgo community 👋🏻 you can start here: https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1048529827243761747
If you are using the TP/SL feature within the S&O toolkit, then you can read about that element here: https://docs.luxalgo.com/docs/toolkits/signals-overlays/tp-sl-points
The entry price is when you enter the trade, if you are using the TP/SL elements with the signals then your entry is usually after the buy/sell signal has been printed and you enter the trade.. The entriy is entirely down to the individual and their own trading stategy
