TP Settings Panel


Settings Explained

Higher Timeframe Analysis

Purpose: View momentum from a bigger-picture perspective

How it works:

  • Sets the calculation timeframe for take profit signals
  • Higher TF = More stable signals
  • Filters out market noise
Chart TF → TP TF
1 min    → 3-5 min
5 min    → 15 min
15 min   → 30-60 min
1 hour   → 4 hour

Signal Sensitivity Control

Purpose: Adjust how reactive take profit signals are

Smoothing Effect Best For
Low (1-5) More signals, sensitive Scalping
Medium (5-10) Balanced Day trading
High (10-20) Fewer, significant signals Swing trading

Visual Impact:

Low:  TP→TP→TP→TP→TP (many signals)
High: TP------→TP (few major signals)

Minimum Profit Filter

Purpose: Prevent exits before meaningful profit

What it does:

  • Sets the minimum profit % required
  • No take profit signals below this level
  • Protects from premature exits
Offset: 0.5%
Trade at +0.3% → No TP
Trade at +0.7% → TP allowed

Offset: 1.0%
Trade at +0.9% → No TP
Trade at +1.2% → TP allowed

Quick Setup Guide

By Trading Style

Style Timeframe Smoothing Offset
Scalping 2x chart 3-5 0.2-0.5%
Day Trading 3x chart 5-10 0.5-1%
Swing Trading 4x chart 10-15 1-2%

Combined Effect

All Settings Working Together:

  1. Check Offset

    Is trade profit > minimum offset?

    • No → No TP signal
    • Yes → Continue
  2. Analyze Momentum

    Check higher timeframe momentum

    • Weak → No signal
    • Strong → Continue
  3. Apply Smoothing

    Is momentum sustained?

    • No → Wait
    • Yes → Show TP signal

Pro Tips

For Clean Signals:

  • Higher timeframe (3x+)
  • More smoothing (10+)
  • Higher offset (1%+)

Result: Fewer, quality exits

For Active Trading:

  • Lower timeframe (2x)
  • Less smoothing (5)
  • Lower offset (0.5%)

Result: More exit opportunities
