Indicators in action

Short replays of our tools on real NQ charts, recorded in NinjaTrader's playback. Press play on any clip (with music). They show how each tool reads the market, not whether it makes money.

Visual onlyBar StructureEvery bar numbered against the one before it (1, 2U, 2D, 3), the previous session's high as one line, and the same numbering for the higher time frames in the panel. A reading aid, not a signal.

Context toolLiquidity HeatmapSweeps of highs and lows marked as they happen, with the session's point of control, high-volume nodes and the volume profile on the right. Its mechanical sweep-reclaim rule showed no standalone edge in backtest; on the chart it is read as context.

Indicator onlyFlowEdgeSession VWAP bands, delta and pressure bubbles drawn bar by bar through the 6:30 AM PT open, with the cumulative delta strip below. It places no orders.

Forward testMarketCoach V3.4.1The context panel reads direction, phase and setup bar by bar until a confirmed long plan appears, to be executed by hand. Forward tested on a Sim account; no results claimed.

Traded by handCSC / AB ScannerConfirmed Structural Continuation and Attrition Break signals marked with their entry levels and exits. The panel's replay tally is blurred: replayed chart history is not a result, and the coded rules found no backtest edge.

Visual aidDeviation ReversalSession VWAP (gold) with bands two standard deviations out. It waits for a stretch beyond a band plus a reversal bar. Its mechanical backtest was negative; it stays on the chart only as a picture of how far price has stretched.

Recorded in playback on past sessions. A signal firing shows the machinery works; it does not show an edge.
