Because it was very generic and availible for free on tradingview. We wanted to add the "both" option

And we can't do that with 3 things

[potent quarry]

hmm, please keep some of the main features as standard in your Versions as often they change and we have to start all over as new traders.I am using MAs, S/R lines, percentile, pattern etc. not sure what to remove and add now.

when we use both signals confirmation/contrarian, how to read the signals?

[indigo cradle]

https://docs.luxalgo.com/

Explains everythig

[potent quarry]

ok, nice to see explanations. Thank you

cool. Got my answer for this

when we use both signals confirmation/contrarian, how to read the signals?
@potent quarry

[indigo cradle]

Have a read 🙂 Explains everything clearly

we spend a good time on it

and once read - you'll be a pro

[potent quarry]

Request - Are you guys working on any scanners based on ur signals?

[umbral quail]

read it and you will be a guaranteed millionaire in a week, !

[tepid sigil]

@indigo cradle what is the impact of the sensitivity and agility of the signals? the higher the more sensitive?

[shy relic]

@tepid sigil lower values of sensitivity will make the signals more sensitive to shorter term price variations, while agility control the sensitivity of the signal to ranging markets, higher values of agility will require price to have an higher trend force in order to potentially trigger a signal

@shy relic got it, I found it hard to adjust them to fit, should we keep them by default values for simplicity?

[umbral quail]

ok i set an alert, but it took it like 6 bars after the signal

before it alerted

[shy relic]

@shy relic got it, I found it hard to adjust them to fit, should we keep them by default values for simplicity?
@tepid sigil its better to find a set of setting that catch the variations you want to trade, in smaller tf you rlly dont want to trade noise, set the settings such that you catch only significant moves.

[vernal owl]

I've been out all day so sorry if this question has been asked a hundred times already. Is V3 supposed to say V3 like V2.9 did?

[indigo cradle]

Nope

will say Premium 🙂

[vernal owl]

Sweet. I think I'm good to go then. Thanks!

[civic thorn]

@feral lava Will this setting pick up any confirmation? Whether it’s a strong buy/sell or just a normal buy/sell??

Today at 1400 - ZM buy signal 2H chart.. when I load it up I don't see the buy signal..

When I load up my 2h chart for zoom the last signal I have is a sell on Oct 21

[twilit void]

!visible

[queen onyx]

Our Discord Market Scanner alerts all use the following:

• Default Lux Algo (V2.9 inputs)
• Normal trading hours (no extended hours)
• Main exchanges / brokers such as NASDAQ / TVC / FXCM / COINBASE / BINANCE

If you have created your own, custom TradingView alerts, be aware they are set per the exact settings you had at the time you set those alert(s).

[twilit void]

@blissful briar the scanners use default settings with no toggle options with after hours disabled. With that said the scanners will be off until Mack has a chance to update each one

Hello, i have noticed that after v3 update, the notification signal isnt appearing as it is on the chart. Pls advise on that. For example last 2 notifications of both STRONG SELL AUDJPY and GBPUSD isnt appearing on their respective charts.

[umbral quail]

you mean the audio notification?

i get the ding about 5-10 bars after the signal

[twin sentinel]

I mean discord notification

Look at the actual chart its showing sell signal

Can someone clarify this matter

Whats happening?

[umbral quail]

i think the discord notes are still on the old algo?

[feral lava]

Hi, we’re updating our scanners to v3 still currently @twin sentinel

[umbral quail]

maybe

[feral lava]

will be just 2 days, gotta manually update 1,600 TradingView alerts. Sorry for the inconvenience

[umbral quail]

[twin sentinel]

[pale vigil]

Are you planning to create MT4 version of Lux? You could make thousands of suscribers on it..

[hearty notch]

you have to go into each chart and remove v2.8 and then install v3.0?

[hearty notch]

not understanding contrarian mode, the signals are not even remotely close to identify a reversal on the 3min and 1min charts. My sensitivity was 4.25 and 1.96 what is the equivalent in v3?

[autumn escarp]

How can i go back

To v2.9

This is nothing man

[indigo cradle]

Why'd you want to go back?

[umbral quail]

i'm confused why ppl are on the update, it seems exactly the same to me, but with a bit more control

[indigo cradle]

We tested for a long long time and it's just a lot better 😅😂

[umbral quail]

i think prob is, ppl had settings that they liked, now they have to refind them

if there was a conversion chart

[indigo cradle]

Yeah it's for the best though for sure

And there isn't really equivalents sadly

It's a brand new system

[umbral quail]

yup, its like all the ppl in line at blockbuster going, "that darn netflix! it will never catch on!"

or they see it like the guy in the store going "this clear pespsi! it will never catch on!"

only time will really tell who wins!

[hearty notch]

@indigo cradle can you please answer my questions above, getting pretty frustrated trying to set up v3 and the market opens in 20min and I've been messing around with this for almost an hour

I'm not going to be able to even use Lux today

[edgy mulch]

what time frame and asset class do you use?

[indigo cradle]

1. No you don't need to go to each chart
2. you're trying to use contrarian on a very low timeframe so you'd need to tweak the settings

[hearty notch]

how does this load onto each chart then? How can I adjust sensitivity and agility to what I had with v2.8? So far not a fan of v3 at all

[autumn escarp]

Me to

V2.9 was good

[hearty notch]

I'm going to have to come back later, not happy at all right now, cant even use Lux, this is a mess!!

[indigo cradle]

It's literally the same as loading any other versions, just add it to that chart from indicators

Had lots of great feedback so far about V3 ☺️ just give it a try

The signals are statistically better

So we know they perform better than the old ones for sure, otherwise we wouldn't switch

[umbral quail]

i am surprised to hear ppl having troubling installing it, i am new to tview and its by far the easiest time i've ever had installing and getting updates

no emailing a dev with machine id lol

[indigo cradle]

It is extremely extremely simple to do

Tradingview is a really nice platform

It's mostly as simple as remove and re-add

[autumn escarp]

The thing is

I had my settings

And now you guys changed everything

And now im not able to have the same settings

Just make it possible for other to go back to old version

[astral crest]

Installing it isnt an issue

Its getting the right settings

To work for you

[autumn escarp]

I had the right settings

[astral crest]

Same

Just about was happy

Advice would be have a play

Wait till people like @jaunty sage figure them out

Then work off them

I been asking people myself

[umbral quail]

i guess i lucked out, i only had one day on the previous one so never fine tuned it, so i can see how the change could be a shock to ppl who felt like they just got their groove

3 is statistically better, it's literally only been out for 24h

It just takes a few days to set it up

[hybrid epoch]

From yesterday I tried setting it up but couldnt get the same type of signals that I got with 2.9

[jaunty sage]

@jaunty sage - what is your (approx) win rate using your scalping gold strategy?
@uneven shadow
I’m at 68% at the moment on gold.
Note:
When I lose, it’s hardly ever my full Stop Loss
I only trade gold during NY session, or London Open

[twilit void]

What I’ll say about V3 is that signals are so much more accurate that my other indicators are garbage half the time. Everything else seems laggy.

[uneven shadow]

@jaunty sage - great! and your 2xATR for both TP and SL (1:1 RR)?

[jaunty sage]

Can I go back to v2.9
@hybrid epoch I know your pain. Be patient. Take your time and get the settings in place. The signals are WAY better

When scalping, yes

[umbral quail]

i need to figured out how to use atr in tradeview

its a bit anoying because i'm actualy entering trades in metatrader

[uneven shadow]

@jaunty sage 👍

[twilit void]

I’ll say this for anyone complaining about setting up the new settings. I’ve said it ever since 1.15 was updated- DO NOT GET RID OF YOUR WINNING TEMPLATE UNTIL YOU HAVE A REPLACEMENT.

Hi guys, I changed the alert message to include all three values for ConfS,D and ContD as follows {{plot("ConfD")}}:{{plot("ConfS")}}:{{plot("ContD")}} [Direction:Strong:ContrarianDirection] - Confirmation/Contrarion Signal.

But I now only get the first two values

sorry only get ConfD and ContD, the middle value ConfS just prints out the {{plot("ConfS")}} string

[rare holly]

anyone know how to remove this bar that says Lux V2.9, it get sin the way of my chart?:

[eager glen]

So, with v3.0, what is the TradingView variable name, ex. {{signal_action}} to use, when you want to know if the recommendation is buy, strong buy, sell, strong sell, etc., all in one alert. A full list of possible variables would be nice to know.

@brisk summit did you try

Remove Lux
Save chart layout
Close TradingView
Open TradingView
Open new chart layout
Add Lux Algo Premium

[brisk summit]

@twilit void I did not remove Lux. I don't know how to go by removing or putting it back on. Would the admin have to put it back on

[twilit void]

Hit the “X” on your chart where it reads Lux Algo

[brisk summit]

@twilit void OK complete

[twilit void]

Ok now that it is removed, click “save chart layout”

I removed them differently.

[tepid sigil]

@indigo cradle Hello, so I updated to the new version, and have some alerts setup on tradingview, but for some reasons the alerts were not triggered, although the "strong" signal did show up on the chart.

@indigo cradle as you can see the alert should be triggered around 1pm but I received no alerts

@indigo cradle oh I got it, it was because of the "once per bar close" option, it waited till 3pm PST to trigger the alert. What would be an option to trigger immediately when signal is posted?

[feral lava]

Once per bar close is needed @tepid sigil

!confirmed

[queen onyx]

A signal is confirmed only once the candle is closed. Meaning a signal could appear on your chart but is not confirmed until that candle is closed and the next candle has started.

Our automated Discord bots will never notify you on any signal until the candle has closed and confirmed it. If you're adding alerts for Lux signals in TradingView - make sure to select "Once per bar close".

[tidal forum]

What should i do with the settings if i want less Buy signal while ranging (consolidation) market ?

[shy relic]

What should i do with the settings if i want less Buy signal while ranging (consolidation) market ?

@indigo cradle OK, so v3 is out, is it possible now? What's the variable name?

[shy relic]

I deleted and loaded Lux Algo. Inputs show sensitivity 12 agility 26 is that mean I got V3? Also what is the recommendation set up on sensitivity and agility for 1 minutes chart?
@runic herald yep you got v3. Tradnig 1 min chart is not something we recommend, but adjust the settings in order to catch significant movements, I would still recommend using an higher tf

[runic herald]

Thanx Alex!! So, how about 5 minutes? Any default setting or recommend sensitivity and agility?

[shy relic]

Thanx Alex!! So, how about 5 minutes? Any default setting or recommend sensitivity and agility?
@runic herald 5 min is better but still complex to trade, I always use a minimum of 15min. The settings will mostly depends on how the market is acting and what kind of movements you wanna catch, agility will allow the indicator to avoid generating signals during ranging markets, with higher values of agility requirring an higher trend force in order for a signal to appear, more info here https://docs.luxalgo.com/lux-algo-premium-indicators/lux-algo/signals#confirmation

Hello, It seems that I have a problem, everytime I buy a position after 15m, it seems that it jumps in the opposite direction, in the chart almost everything looks perfect, but in real life testing it does not.

I did not had a stop loss before loosing 600€ in a position like this.

Any advice on this problem?

I use 15m charts, settings on LuxAlgo are sens: 22 and agil: 2

[indigo cradle]

Use a lower timeframe to find an entry on a signal

That's how most people tend to do it

[surreal mist]

But does not that make it more dangerous - the possibility to have a short rise, and a fall after that?

15m should not be more safe?

[indigo cradle]

Nope using a lower timeframe to pinpoint entries is a really good move normally

[surreal mist]

also for exits?

[indigo cradle]

yep 🙂

[surreal mist]

okey, so how lower (i also tried 1s charts) ?

[indigo cradle]

oh no not the 1s chart hahah

on the 15m you'd most likely want 2-5m

[surreal mist]

:))

oooooh

so when I see on 15m triggering, waiting for it after that on the 3m chart?

[indigo cradle]

That's a good idea normally yep 🙂

Really helps get nice entries

and higher chances

[surreal mist]

ooooh that is so Evil :))

Niiiiice moove! good

[cunning pulsar]

Lol that FB strong alert though. That was a miss.

[surreal mist]

Yup, got me also, but put a trailing stop loss

got 32€ out of it

[cunning pulsar]

I wish I had something bro, I've gone completely dry. Got hit by a couple SPY puts.

[surreal mist]

what? lost everything?

[cunning pulsar]

Yea

I can't even begin to explain lollll

This year has been completely ass for my girlfriend and I.

[calm creek]

hi, how shoul i solve the study error that keeps coming?

[cunning pulsar]

And all I had to do was hold.

[indigo cradle]

@calm creek That'd be an email to [e-mail] 🙂

They'll fix quick

[cunning pulsar]

Can you fix me quick

🤣

[jaunty perch]

Hello, For scalping, in 1min, it is better to have a high or low sensitivity? What about agility?

[cunning pulsar]

Honestly. Just leave everything stock.

Scalping is perfect on a 5m with stock settings

I'm telling u

[indigo cradle]

Trading the 1m is terrifying

[cunning pulsar]

Yeah screw 1m

Not enough time

[calm creek]

use 1 m to exit

[indigo cradle]

and 99.99% of people will get totally shredded on it hahaha

yep that's a good idea

[calm creek]

enter at higher time lines

[cunning pulsar]

Yep

[young coral]

I recommend everyone takes a break from trading for a week lol

[cunning pulsar]

Enter low on higher timeframes and high on lower timeframes

I haven't traded for like a month

I'm too broke

I got wiped out

[young coral]

Next week or so is gonna wipe people out

[indigo cradle]

Honestly most people shouldn't trade sub 30m

[cunning pulsar]

Fr.

[young coral]

Agreed about the time frames

I check 15m sometimes

[cunning pulsar]

4hr is like perfect.....I typically enter reallllly low on the 4hr

[young coral]

But mostly hour and daily

[cunning pulsar]

Makes me wait

[indigo cradle]

It's sold to people being attractive and glamorous and quick money

[cunning pulsar]

Yeah

1m - 3m seems sexy

But it's not.

That's where the algos play

[young coral]

If you doing 1m might as well do 1s lol

[indigo cradle]

it's true

[young coral]

Profits are sexy. 1m isn’t sexy.

[calm creek]

i bet your making so much money trading on 1m

[young coral]

Lol

[calm creek]

1 m gold chart !

[cunning pulsar]

Yeah sometimes for fun when I catch myself watching and trading. Jesus off the 1m I just turn the tick chart on to force my mind to realize what a spaz I'm being

[young coral]

I’m all in when I see Golden cross on 1m lol

[umbral quail]

what time frames you guys work?

[young coral]

Hour and daily 💪🏻

[cunning pulsar]

Your mind just forgets that you've changed the whole chart from dollars to half a cent

[umbral quail]

i tend to do 5 min because the setup i use i tend to put my stop at the bottom of the swing low, and the higher time frame the bigger the loss

[young coral]

Alright guys get ready for a relief rally post elections. Wishing everyone tons of profits

Stay the f out for at least a week

[umbral quail]

will our ellections have much effect on forex if i avoid usd pairs?

[young coral]

Covid us screwing europe I wouldn’t touch currency either

Is*

[surreal mist]

usd jpy tons of profit, also here in picture is USD CHF

[feral lava]

🔥very nice

[surreal mist]

yup, bought lux algo two days ago 🙂

[young coral]

Well done

[surreal mist]

today I made 1k, but lost it again (as it was yesterday) :)))

I must just fucking stop at 1K

[indigo cradle]

the ol' overtrading haha

There's a guy in here who targets 3% a day

He's in share profits a lot

once he hits a target he stops

[surreal mist]

woo 3%? :))

niiice

healthy thinking

[indigo cradle]

yeah he's been doing that for a long time

really nice strat

[surreal mist]

i just want 100%/day

:))))))

[nova solstice]

that’s insane

[surreal mist]

joke, but would be nice

[indigo cradle]

3% a day compounds to a LOT

hahah

[nova solstice]

[surreal mist]

yep it is

nice idea

thanks for sharing it

what is a healthy trailing stop loss? 🙂

I use 8, but it seems on the facebook flag earlier, i went out too early

[umbral quail]

i mean depends on market and volatility

[surreal mist]

okey

[umbral quail]

if your market is pingpoinging hard you gotta make more ,

[surreal mist]

makes sense

[umbral quail]

look at recent history and see how big of pullbacks its been getting

[surreal mist]

yup, good point on that

[umbral quail]

Maybe look into a art trail

Atr

[surreal mist]

that sounds interesting

Is there any way to enable a sell or buy turned strong like in previous versions?

@blissful sinew let me take a look at that

[hollow wigeon]

I un-checked "borders" for candles but the wicks are still a different color. Any way to fix those? thx

@blissful sinew I noticed the alert box shows up as candle is forming but it comes and goes. Sometimes the alert stays at candle close, sometimes it's gone when candle closes 🤷‍♂️

[surreal mist]

I think you should consider a valid signal only after the candle is closed

[hollow wigeon]

@surreal mist I agree but I'm just saying the alert appears before the candle closes and stays or goes after candle close.

[molten jackal]

@surreal mist I agree but I'm just saying the alert appears before the candle closes and stays or goes after candle close.

[feral lava]

By using Once Per Bar Close the alerts will only appear once the bar has closed, make sure you guys use that @hollow wigeon @molten jackal

How to set up your own custom alerts in TradingView: https://luxalgo.com/apps/help-center#hc-creating-alerts-on-tradingview

[hollow wigeon]

@feral lava oh I think I didn't describe what I'm seeing right: when I'm looking at the chart, a red or green signal will quickly appear and/or disappear while the candle is forming. At candle close, the buy or sell tag will either still be there or maybe goes away. It's like it's trying to decided.

[feral lava]

!confirmed

[queen onyx]

A signal is confirmed only once the candle is closed. Meaning a signal could appear on your chart but is not confirmed until that candle is closed and the next candle has started.

Our automated Discord bots will never notify you on any signal until the candle has closed and confirmed it. If you're adding alerts for Lux signals in TradingView - make sure to select "Once per bar close".

[blissful sinew]

I understand all of that guys but luxalgo says that the alerts the scanner gives are always bar closed. But thats not the case in this example because it was still moving. I can understand that if you are manually changing the alerts you slip and make a mistake on the closing type bar. But it's confusing if the alerts says sell and I don't notices the bar has already closed and I go to the chart and don't see a sell. I think I would be wiser to double check everything since you told us that it would take 2 days. Just saying.

[velvet nebula]

@queen onyx @feral lava can someone answer my question about candles turning strong??

[blissful sinew]

You mean green red and purple?

[velvet nebula]

@blissful sinew no I mean in previous versions you could set alerts for buy or sell signals turned strong

Seems to be gone now

[indigo cradle]

is gone for now

@blissful sinew checking EURZAR, i am very confident they are all Once Per Bar Close though. Will double check regardless

thanks for letting me know!

i’ll update in a sec

yeah

I have red candles with cyan wicks, green candles with red wicks, etc

[jovial granite]

is there way to add sound to the buy and sell signals?

[indigo cradle]

You can turn off borders

oh wicks

nope

@jovial granite Yep in alert you should be able to select make sound

@blissful sinew I've found the problem, the EURZAR 4H and 2H were switched

so that was actually a 2H alert

fixing now

i don't think there's any other errors across other scanner alerts, appreciate you for informing us

[calm creek]

@indigo cradle can we get the timeframe selector back. i could improve entries using it

[indigo cradle]

Not for the moment - it's a bit buggy

In the future we may add back

[calm creek]

its excellent

even when buggy

sometimes it crashes but you just move to 3m

its the only thing that beats v3

[indigo cradle]

for sure will look to add it back

just some restrictions on pinescript

but we will fix

[calm creek]

Great

[solar hill]

Are the Scanners updated yet? Im not seeing them.

@cunning pulsar hey so what does it mean to enter low on higher time frames and high on lower time frames? I'm new to LuxAlgo thx 🙂

[severe umbra]

Is there a way to tie into tradingview.com to have it read the buy/sell signals that luxalgo puts out to alert me outside of viewing the charts? Ie, if I wanted to use it to auto trade or alter my phone upon parameters (1 minute and 3 minute signal, etc) ? If not, are you working on this? Some API or something connected to our account?

So so so important to read our docs

[hollow wigeon]

So if I understand agility setting, the higher the value, the less BUY/SELL signals, right? A value of 0 shows all the signals and a value of 100 only shows the most strong signals? Is that about right? 🙂 (higher value would be useful in ranging mkts when I don't want a billion signals?)

@hollow wigeon yes, thats correct, seems like you have been reading the docs 😊

[jaunty perch]

How does the dashboard determine the 'State' (ranging or trending)? Is it based on the active timeframe?

[indigo cradle]

yep based on active

[jaunty perch]

yep based on active
@indigo cradle Thanks. Any documentation on how lux determines ranging or trending?

[indigo cradle]

On the actual calculation?

[jaunty perch]

Yeah, I wonder because sometimes I'd think a market is trending, but lux labels it as ranging 🙂

[indigo cradle]

It really depends on perspective

and also

it depends on your S/R filter

because that will impact how far it looks back

[jaunty perch]

ok, good to know, thanks

a lot of folks on here tend to set their alerts to "once per bar". then what happens is 5min into your 15min candle price is at 'X" point causing the algo to trip a strong buy, then gets rejected by candle close and goes back to purple. no different than a EMA or MACD, if you watch it all second-by-second every indicator moves as a candle is forming- because price is moving. But once the candle is closed, the indicator needs to be set.

@ripe fjord the current signal display? Its useful when you dont want to display the signals labels on the chart, and it can kinda replace the "both" option in signal mode.

Oh I am talking about the lux dashboard beside the candles? You have the trend then beside it is the contrarian?

@sudden walrus for forex, MT4/5 seems to be the most popular here, followed by Oanda. for stocks I'd say e*trade, ToS, Fidelity

@twilit void
So what do you have your alerts set at?

[twilit void]

once per bar close. I used to have them set to "once per bar" for all my indicators but then it became too much. So now I only care when I get a close.

[severe umbra]

Are you day trading or swing? By that time do you think the price has moved a little too much further?

[twilit void]

Day trading. & no- I’m entering on a 5min timeframe

Ok thanks. Is 3m or 1m too quick?

For me it is. There are plenty of other who are successful with the 1m & 3m but it’s just too quick for me. Anything lower than 5m I can’t do

Hi guys

Thanks for the work you all are doing to improve the luxalgo indicator @indigo cradle @feral lava

Is there any chance you guys can keep v2.9 available?? I have been having amazing results but the settings on the V3 is not giving me the signals for my setups

Would be amazing if you could keep the V2.9 available on TV for the ones who have been using it on their setups

[vagrant frigate]

@indigo cradle what sensitivity will be in new version compared to the old version sensitivity 6?

[west latch]

I have been using sensitivity 7.5 and Agility 1.9 on 5m with Use HA as source selected - works great!!! But the v3 shows different settings

V3 is good in its own right but I cannot replicate the v2.9 signals with the v3 on my setups

Would be great if we could keep the older versions available for the ones who have found good setups while using them

Thanks!

[worldly grail]

@plain gorge i have that same exact question too....i'm trying to lock in my settings per pair and saving templates for each for its respective timeframe...wondering if the alert will trigger on that exact template/timeframe. In the alert settings all i see at the top is (the pair) and i'm setting it to a condition of "Lux Prem" but what prem...i have like 10 settings for 10 pairs, on 3 time frames....

[indigo cradle]

@worldly grail and @plain gorge yes it will trigger on the timeframe and settings you are using for that pair ☺️

@distant charm there are additional tools for shipping entries such as reversal zones or s/r

[lunar nebula]

Hello everyone im new usign lux algo and I have a question what could be the best configuration for a 15 min chart?

[indigo cradle]

Any "what is the best" questions you'll most of the time hear a "it depends" because it really does depend on the asset, the trader, the other tools you use ect

For example some like more noisy but earlier signals and use other tools to confirm a trend

Or some like fewer more lagging signals and use other indicators for entries

[keen horizon]

Anybody for my question?

[indigo cradle]

Those are variables that will be replaced with the signal type or direction for example Strong will be 1 or 0 depending on the signal type

So you can use them in the alert messages

[keen horizon]

Ok. So with this "type" I can trigger an alert for strong signals whether they are Buy or Sell ?

[hollow wigeon]

Hmmm I didn't get an alert on TV even though I have it set and see the strong signal on the chart for POLA at 08:30. Also didn't get TV alert for a strong buy either.

This SDPI didn't trigger a TV alert either. That strong signal is at 08:30

[indigo cradle]

May I see your alert settings?

[hollow wigeon]

@indigo cradle

@indigo cradle

[indigo cradle]

Hmmm odd, I'd suggest remaking them

[hollow wigeon]

@indigo cradle does it have anything to do with being an alert exactly at mkt open and having my TV ext "on"?

And.. stupid question: can we set a 15m alert and also create a 5m alert for the same symbol?

[indigo cradle]

Ummm that could be it Miguel but I doubt it

Yep you can ☺️

[hollow wigeon]

more stupid questions: how can SDPI 5m still be under a strong buy as it's making its way down? My agility/sensitivity are default

[unique blaze]

out of curiosity, how do I cancel my subscription?

[indigo cradle]

ummm that's a werid time to alert

hmmmm

[hollow wigeon]

Yeah you can see the alert timestamp, lower right

[indigo cradle]

All I can suggest is remaking it for now and hopefully it'll fix itself

We test the alerts code 10000% so if it bugs it's TV fault

So remaking hopefully will correct

[hollow wigeon]

removed it, added it back on 5m, conf signals all in one - also closing TV window and re-launching

[livid marten]

Hi, I am not sure what is wrong but the new update makes my life miserable. It’s impossible to scalp. In some places alerts are false and in others they appear too late. You advise would be highly appreciated.

[indigo cradle]

It looks quite nice to me?

The confirmation signals are behaving as they should

I think you're confusing contrarian signals

These are contrarian signals which are not good for trending markets at all

They are designed for ranging markets to catch tops and bottoms

https://docs.luxalgo.com/lux-algo-premium-indicators/lux-algo/signals

This should clear things up 🙂 Highly suggest having a read 🙂

[livid marten]

I removed the contrarian signals, but the point is that before there were more signals than now. And I could have scalped in more places according to signals. Before the “buy” signal would appear where you marked it in red, but it spread too late. I trade options and in my case it’s -50%. Also before a color of candles would change to purple sooner. Any advise on settings for scalping on 5 min?

[indigo cradle]

Just reduce sensitivity then if you want more signals

[livid marten]

What should be my sensitivity level? It’s at 12 now

[indigo cradle]

That's totally up to you but if you reduce it you'll see how it changes

You'll get more signals

[livid marten]

Ok, I see. What about Agility? What would you recommend for scalping?

[indigo cradle]

Again i really don't know what you'll like the most 😉

But if you play about you will 100% find something you enjoy

[umbral quail]

and your settings will be different for every chart / timeframe

gotta fine tune

[indigo cradle]

Yep it's impossible for us to pick defaults that everyone would love

We have some people who say "too many signals"

some say "not enough signals"

That's the beauty of letting people change em 🙂

[livid marten]

I totally understand, but what were the standard settings a month ago? I really got used to those and want to put them back

Hello, Should this parameter be clicked or not?

[tawny lotus]

Same??

[feral lava]

It's a preference, generally if you're using Heikin Ashi candles it's smart to use just so you can see the actual price on the right side of your chart rather than 2 prices which can be confusing

i'd say yes @jaunty perch @tawny lotus

[jaunty perch]

I am using Heikin Ashi. If I understand correctly, it is better to check it to have the correct values ​​in the "data" space?

I speak french... it's difficult to translate in english 🙂

[feral lava]

It'll display on the price scale the actual price

rather than 2 prices, which is confusing

so it is good to check that if you are using Heikin Ashi yes

So is it safe to say, Confirmation Signal = long term signal and Contrarian = Short Term

[feral lava]

Not exactly

explained best in this vid first few minutes
@feral lava I've watched this like 10 times 😛

[indigo cradle]

It's mentioned contrarian signals are best used in ranging markets

and confirmation is best for trending markets

Nothing to do with long term or short term signals

Contrarian goes against the trend so wouldn't be good for something that is trending

[steel gate]

How often would the indicator show a ranging market vs a trending market?

[indigo cradle]

On the dashboard?

Markets can range for any amount of time

And markets can trend for any amount of time

If you look at the SPX weekly that's been trending for years

[steel gate]

Correct - this looks more ranging than trending as its staying between a range

[indigo cradle]

yep

and take a look at the reversal zones

In the ranging market

Perfect bounces

So we made tools that are very good for handling ranging markets which is rare to have

[steel gate]

Indeed - the dashboard states "trending"

And its superhelpful

insanely helpful

[indigo cradle]

Yeah if you're looking at that for looking between signal types

set your S/R filter to maybe 5-6

because that increases how far it looks back to see if something is trending or not

Can really help 🙂

[steel gate]

Here we go - took a little fine tuning but this looks pretty good and nearly predictive

[feral lava]

nice

yep

well just note that contrarian signals will always perform bad in strong trending markets, so it's all really about adjusting to the market conditions

In regards to the candles, I have some which are hollow and some which are filled - what does that mean?

@indigo cradle

[indigo cradle]

hollow?

[indigo cradle]

https://docs.luxalgo.com/lux-algo-premium-indicators/lux-algo/candle-coloring

That's all you need to know about the candle coloring 🙂

Everything you'll need to know you can find on here

[steel gate]

^^ I read that

[indigo cradle]

Perfect 🙂

[steel gate]

But as you'll see, some of the candles are hollow and some are fill

[indigo cradle]

Oh we have nothing to do with the hollow candles - maybe you accidentally changed the style for one of them

Or you have selected hollow candles

[steel gate]

...

Delete this entire conversation.

[indigo cradle]

hahaha why?

[steel gate]

Its the dumbest thing I've asked about since I asked about the birds and the bees

[indigo cradle]

hahahahhaha

It's ok

I hear a lot of funny questions hahah

It's not the worst one 😉

[steel gate]

I can imagine... I was reading some of the questions - that can all be answered by watching the video and reading the docs. I try hard to do the self-education then ask because I'm sure you guys are busy.

[indigo cradle]

Appreciate it 🙂 Reading all the docs is the best thing to do hahah

[steel gate]

The comprehension of the sensitivity vs agility is a bit to grasp

[indigo cradle]

Yeah of course - just takes a lil getting used to 🙂

[feral lava]

video on that coming soon @steel gate which will help

[steel gate]

Sensitivity = the level required for underlying data at which signals are produced

Agility = the importance of the signal/strength

From what I gather

[feral lava]

!settings

[queen onyx]

Confirmation signals are affected by both the sensitivity and agility settings, increasing these two settings will allow the trader to take decisions regarding longer term price movements, however, agility is specifically designed to filter out signals occurring during ranging markets, with a higher value removing signals that occurred in ranging markets thus returning more strong signals as a result.

Although we provide suggested settings by default (12, 26) there are no "best settings" that we can mention because trading is very personal per asset and timeframe. It is smart to adjust the settings per the assets & timeframes you trade.

Learn how to adjust them here: https://luxalgo.com/apps/help-center#hc-adjusting-input-settings

[feral lava]

added more info to this command for the meantime

[steel gate]

I'd also explain a bit about what contrarian trading style actually is about. Most traders have a natural mixture of both and the best play contrarian right into the trend and confirm the trend.

@steel gate thanks for the suggestion, we’ll likely make this more clear in the docs / explanations on website & in content 👍

[vivid forge]

When a sell signal changes to solid color; will that generate a TV alert as strong on bar close?

[shy relic]

When a sell signal changes to solid color; will that generate a TV alert as strong on bar close?
@vivid forge you mean candle? a candle color switching from dark violet to green or red wont trigger a strong alert

[vivid forge]

yes, apologies. the candle itself.

thanks alex.

[vivid sundial]

is there anywhere i can go look for description of these?

like whats ConfD, Confs.. and all those ...s

[feral lava]

where are you seeing that list @vivid sundial

[vivid sundial]

tradingview alert

[winter echo]

U guys need to learn candle stick lol

[feral lava]

You’ve gotta set the Condition where it says SPY to Lux Algo Premium

@vivid sundial

[vivid sundial]

oh...

got it. thank u

[feral lava]

then you’ll get the correct list of alerts:)

no problem

[queen vapor]

red wicks = bearish candle , green wicks= bullish , is it correct

red wicks = bearish candle , green wicks= bullish , is it correct
@feral lava

[indigo cradle]

It's the colour of the actual candle

So yes I guess a green wick means it's moving upwards

[queen vapor]

👍 thanks

[twilit void]

Question. The candles in the orange circle- would that be going from strong sell, to normal sell, to strong sell, to normal sell and back to strong sell? Or would it be strong sell, normal buy, strong sell, normal buy etc... the green circle I throws me off too because shouldn’t I have a normal buy on that first purple candle?

I know in previous versions it couldn’t go back & forth between strong sell and normal sell. It always took turns between buy/sell signals.

I apologize ahead of time if this is covered somewhere but I read the docs and I didn’t see anything related to this. TIA. I know it’s the weekend- no rush on an answer:)

[indigo cradle]

All good ☺️ so it'd just be holding that strong sell position. So for example you get the strong sell signal, then it goes into profit, then the purple candles appear they act as a "eh maybe consider taking the loss" as there is indecision

[twilit void]

Cool. Just don’t think I’ve seen that happen before haha. Thanks @indigo cradle

[twilit spear]

Hello is state Ranging/Trending based strictly on liquidity from Lux Volatility? As in replay mode when I check the up and low band set by indicator, crossing them doesn't change trend state in dashboard

So I am confused 😕

[indigo cradle]

Oh the state has nothing to do with liquidity or lux volatility

Totally seperate calculations

[twilit void]

@shy relic

[indigo cradle]

oh no millie

Not the ribbons

hahaha

[glad heath]

What’s the name of that indicator ?

[twilit void]

any idea why those MACD arrows would print on certain candles when in replay mode but not when looking back at the chart?

@glad heath it's the one they gave for free on their article.

[indigo cradle]

oh please don't hahah

we wrote an article on why they are so bad and scammy hahah

[umbral quail]

Maybe they repainted carmine?

[indigo cradle]

It looks pretty

[twilit void]

I wanted to try them though lol

[indigo cradle]

yeah fair enough 😉

[glad heath]

Lol ooo okay

Lmao

[indigo cradle]

Please do not be fooled by their beauty 😉

[umbral quail]

Who’s scammy?

[indigo cradle]

The ma ribbons we made an article on

[twilit void]

I have the code to the arrows though & Alex added the MTF function for me. So I feel like if the arrows could be repainted we would've caught it

[indigo cradle]

Are you using the MTF functionality?

[umbral quail]

I started messing with forex tester4. I love it, I will give you guys 5 dollars to convert lux to it

[twilit void]

yes

[indigo cradle]

Ah that can be funky I believe

[twilit void]

it's crazy. So I'm using a 2min chart with a 10min MACD arrow. If I do bar replay, the arrow prints at the beginning of the actual 10min candle and when I am out of it prints at the end. super funky

I wanna run 2 lux charts . But it always takes my candles away after streaming for like 10 minutes lol

[umbral quail]

in my opion every trade client should have forex tested capabilities built in

[cursive quiver]

Sorry if this has already been asked, but what did the update to the scanners do?

[umbral quail]

it updated the scanners?

[twilit void]

they updated the scanners to V3

instead of the 2.9 or 2.8 signals.

I know the answer is likely, it depends, but is it wise to keep the same input settings for all 3 versions? If I am running confirmation, control & contrarian, should I keep the same sensitivity and agility for all 3 when looking at the same asset & timeframe? Or is it better to adjust each one since the math behind them is different?

[indigo cradle]

I'd say it's better to have settings for each one

[twilit void]

cool. thanks!

[severe umbra]

If I'm sending out a webhook from trading view to catch signals to trade on, is there a way to just use 1 alert that tells me "strong buy" "sell", etc or do I have to make 4 alerts for each ticker? Like (signal.name) in the description?

[shy relic]

I have the code to the arrows though & Alex added the MTF function for me. So I feel like if the arrows could be repainted we would've caught it
@twilit void I used the resolution feature and not security, so no, it shouldnt repaint, at least its not caused by that, maybe something else.

@severe umbra you can use the "confirmation all in one" alert

[twilit void]

yeah I don't think it is you. seems to only be problematic during bar replay. in real time the arrow appears at the close of the higher timeframe (as it should) but in replay mode it appears at the open of the candle. thinking it's just a TV bug.

@twilit void you can give me back the code so that I can check if you want, not a problem.

[twilit spear]

Oh the state has nothing to do with liquidity or lux volatility
@indigo cradle Fair enough, thanks! Is there any possibility to make indicator out of it? It would help in adjusting settings when market is off like during weekend now but without knowing when market is range and when is trending -> it's hard to review last days on market. I would like to verify when market was ranging and when trending in order to see when confirmation and when contrarian signals were valid to trade

[severe umbra]

@severe umbra you can use the "confirmation all in one" alert
@shy relic yes, but then the alert it sends just says "signal", instead of identifying the name of the alert specifically in the web hook. I would prefer to use confirmation all in one, and then the alert say the actual signal name

[twilit void]

@shy relic are your DMs closed?

[shy relic]

@shy relic are your DMs closed?
@twilit void yep, you can send the code here via 0bin

@shy relic yes, but then the alert it sends just says "signal", instead of identifying the name of the alert specifically in the web hook. I would prefer to use confirmation all in one, and then the alert say the actual signal name
@severe umbra There isn't name associated to it unfortunately, instead we use numbers, it could be possible to extract them and tell if a signal is either buy/sell or strong/normal. Once tv implement the option to show string series as placeholder we will use that instead of numbers 🙂

[severe umbra]

@shy relic thank you. Can you tell me how to access the number for each code and how its referenced? Ie. Strongbuy=1000, buy=1001
And they are pulled up from webhooks as ((signal.number))
Or is that not possible yet? Thanks

[shy relic]

@severe umbra I have no experiences with webhooks unfortunately, but if you can get the text message, you can maybe process it as a string and extract the information you want from it, if direction is 1, then the signal is a buy signal, if its -1 then the signal is a sell signal, if strong = 0 then the signal is not strong, however if strong = 1 then the signal is strong, if you can process this information you can certainly do what you are looking for.

[thorny lark]

When comparing timeframes (Daily vs Weekly for example) do you want to adjust the Sensitivity & Agility between the charts so that the signals match? This is with Confirmation signals, but if a Buy/Strong Buy or Sell/Strong sell shows up on the Daily, ideally it should show up at the same time on the Weekly to confirm the signal?

@thorny lark I never heard of such methodology, you want to adjust settings in order to catch variations of interest. Higher tf variations are derived from variations of lower tf, the signals could potentially match but doing so wont necessarily give any benefits.

@shy relic My thought process was waiting for a signal on a lower timeframe and waiting for confirmation from the higher, but that makes sense that the higher timeframe is based on the lower, so that's likely not necessary. So in this case if I have the Daily signals tuned to my liking then there shouldn't be any need for the weekly.

uhh, im kinda confused, when im trying to make alerts, there are ~25 options. Which ones would be just the Strong Buys and Sell's?

There's just alot of options and I don't really know which one(s) to pick 😅

[feral lava]

make sure to select Lux Algo Premium from the top menu @jaunty perch “conditions”

[jaunty perch]

yeah, i have that selected

Hmmm ok..thanks 👍

[cinder pagoda]

Hi All, joined up late last week and getting my head into everything.
When setting up alerts (I am a scalper - 20 to 50 pips) is it better to alert for a slightly longer term (1hr, 4hr or 8hr) and then look for entries on the 1min, 5min 15min etc or is it better to set alerts for 15min and then validate on the longer term and then come back to my 1min and 5min for entries?

[hollow wigeon]

Hey quick question about the Lux Oscillator: I noticed the plots are sometimes thin, sometimes thicker - what's the interpretation on that? Thank you 🙏

All scamming people out of money

[jaunty perch]

what is your TP and SL strategy with the algorithm?

[primal pecan]

Is it known that the Trade Setup indicator has a glitch now? TP1 and TP2 give the same price.

[indigo cradle]

Oh really? That's odd

what is your TP and SL strategy with the algorithm?
@jaunty perch people use a whole range. S/R levels, reversal zones, fixed pips ect.

Before you came to Lux you must have had a TP or SL method?

[umbral quail]

i think a problem you guys get is the ads that are on facebook makes this look like a magic bullet, its a scrollling chart with every entry being absolutely perfect and some dude jumping around going "I'm RICH NOW!"

it doesnt look like "heres a helpfully addition to your trading system to give you a bit of a advantage"

[indigo cradle]

The thing is, it can actually be like that, if you take bitcoin daily or TSLA high timeframes it's quite amazing

The only issue is most traders don't seem to use those timeframes 😂

[umbral quail]

or most ppl using this dont have the funds to risk the bounces a daily btc or tsla could take

[indigo cradle]

Yeahhhh that's the thing too, high timeframes will always be best though, well at least for the confirmation signals

[umbral quail]

yup high is always better, just for us poor boys its scary setting up a trade that can bankrupt you with a small bounce

[primal pecan]

High as in 4H and above?

[indigo cradle]

Yeah those are easier to analyse

[primal pecan]

I agree it is

[indigo cradle]

Also the other thing is , everything we add to the system is valuable

The reversal zones are quite amazing but people love buy sell of course

It's the most attractive thing
