Custom Scalper Buys/Sells - ShowMe Edition

Recommended Posts

Guest cooter
On second observation, I found it to be too slow.

 

The dots print way after the fact. How do you guys trade this as refence points ?

 

Yep, just like the paintbar version. It PAINTS THE PAST. I've said this before, and had my post deleted for pointing out the obvious about this indicator.

 

Use it at your own risk.

The indicator needs a minimum of THREE bars to paint a bar. However, it can (and usually does) take more bars than that during sideways consolidation.

 

Please see the attached screenshot. The cyan/yellow arrows indicate when the signal actually fired off. So, yes this indicator is very dangerous in chop situations, assuming one is taking all buy/sell signals. Please listen to cooter and be very careful in your usage of this tool.

 

As far as I know John Carter uses it as follows:

a) Signal confirms a move against a support/resistance level

b) Uses it to time entries/exits. For instance, I've heard him say that if long, and a Scalper Sell + 2 red TTM's fire off, he will exit his remaining position. I have also seen him initiate trades based on Scalper Buy + 2 Blue TTM's

 

The point is, one needs to filter this to be used appropriately (just like every other indicator).

Traderlu,

 

Thank you for sharing this.

 

I was wondering if you have closely confirmed the markings with various charts actually presented by John Carter, using his actual signal. I found that when I tried to reproduce this indicator, I got quite close, but still missed a few as well as still painting a few erroneous bars.

 

Interested in knowing how closely you have validated your indicator's results with his.

 

Thank you!

Please disregard previous question, I just read your previous post with the paint bar studies where you say you have validated it matches JC's charts. I look forward to giving this indicator a try. Thanks for sharing!

    • The big breakthrough with AI right now is “natural language computing.”   Meaning, you can speak in natural language to a computer and it can go through huge data sets, make sense out of them, and speak back to you in natural language.   That alone is a huge breakthrough.   The next leg? AI agents. Where they don’t just speak back to you.   They take action. Here’s the definition I like best: an AI agent is an autonomous system that uses tools, memory, and context to accomplish goals that require multiple steps.   Everything from simple tasks (analyzing web traffic) to more complex goals (building executive briefings or optimizing websites).   They can:   > Reason across multiple steps.   >Use tools like a real assistant (Excel spreadsheets, budgeting apps, search engines, etc.)   > Remember things.   And AI agents are not islands. They talk to other agents.   They can collaborate. Specialized agents that excel at narrow tasks can communicate and amplify one another’s strengths—whether it’s reasoning, data processing, or real-time monitoring.   What it Looks Like You wake up one morning, drink your coffee, and tell your AI agent, “I need to save $500 a month.”   It gets to work.   First, it finds all your recurring subscriptions. Turns out you’re paying $8.99 for a streaming service you forgot you had.   It cancels it. Then it calls your internet provider, negotiates a lower bill, and saves you another $40. Finally, it finds you car insurance that’s $200 cheaper per year.   What used to take you hours—digging through statements, talking to customer service reps on hold for an hour, comparing plans—is done while you’re scrolling Twitter.   Another example: one agent tracks your home maintenance needs and gets information from a local weather-monitoring agent. Result: "Rain forecast next week - should we schedule gutter cleaning now?"   Another: an AI agent will plan your vacations (“Book me a week in Italy for under $2,000”), find the cheapest flights, and sort out hotels with a view.   It’ll remind you to pay bills, schedule doctor’s appointments, and track expenses so you’re not wondering where your paycheck went every month.   The old world gave you tools—Excel spreadsheets, search engines, budgeting apps. The new world gives you agents who do the work for you.   Don’t Get Too Scared (or Excited) Yet William Gibson famously said: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."   AI agents will distribute it. For decades, the tools that billionaires and corporations used to get ahead—personal assistants, financial advisors, lawyers—were out of reach for regular people.   AI agents could change that.   BUT, remember…   We’re in inning one.   AI agents have a ways to go.   They’re imperfect. They mess up. They need more defenses to get ready for prime time.   To be sure, AI is powerful, but it’s not a miracle worker. It’s great at helping humans solve problems, but it’s not going to replace all jobs overnight.   Instead of fearing AI, think of it as a tool to A.] save you time on boring stuff and B.] amplify what you’re already good at. Right now is the BEST time to start experimenting. It’s also the best time to find investments that will “make AI work for you”.
