Short Only Anytime Scalper
This indicator works best in a 2-minute timeframe.
I designed this indicator to work with my proprietary scalping strategy where I use candlestick anatomy, price action, and moving averages to determine potential short entries.
Rules I use for using this indicator:
- I turn the 20MA green
- I turn the 200MA red
- I only take a short entry on the FIRST yellow or red candle painted once the 20MA comes back down crossing the 200MA once the candle fully closes red or yellow from the indicator
- The gap between the 20MA and the 200MA MUST be close (the closer the gap is the stronger the short entry can be). Note: It can be considered a false signal if the bar is colored yellow or red when the gap is far within the 20MA and the 200MA.
- My stop loss is the red line right on the top of the True Bear Bar (red) or Partial True bear bar (yellow)
- My take profit is always at 0.04% (green dots) and then I watch price action, when price action moves under my 0.04% I quickly move to stop loss to that level locking in profit while allowing profit to ride. (This indicator is meant to use in quick price action and I am usually in and out of a trade in 5 minutes or even sooner)
How to read the indicator
- Yellow painted bar at candle close: Partial True Bear Bar
- Red painted bar at candle close: True Bear Bar
- Red line painted on top of candle: Stop loss
- Green dot with green label and price: Goal profit area no matter what
You will notice that sometimes depending on the size of the bear bar, the R:R is very off compared to traditional trading, this is because this is a very quick scalping strategy that either locks in 0.04% no leverage gain or quickly puts stop loss at that level to then let profits ride.
