HOW IT WORKS

The system behind the results

Entry signals and confirmations

Uses the Deadzone / Waddah Attar Explosion relationship and trend-strength conditions to select long-side opportunities. Further enabled screens include RSI, momentum, ADX and above-average volume, with a restricted trading-time window.

Trade management and exits

ATR-based protective stop with a configured profit objective, plus a candle-count exit and an enabled Squeeze Momentum exit. ATR trailing stop is disabled.

Original signal, filter and exit settings have remained unchanged since release; only position sizing was reduced in January 2026. Exact parameter values and time windows are private.

Position sizing: Position-sizing reduced in January 2026; signal/exit parameters unchanged.
