Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our premium indicator bundle, trading strategies, research data, and ThinkorSwim integration.

Getting Started

The Premium Indicator Bundle costs $799 as a one-time payment for lifetime access. This includes all current indicators, future releases, and lifetime updates with no recurring fees.

All our indicators are designed specifically for ThinkorSwim (ToS) by TD Ameritrade. They are written in ThinkScript and will not work on other platforms like MetaTrader, TradingView, or NinjaTrader.

No programming experience is required. Each indicator comes with step-by-step installation instructions and setup guides. However, having basic familiarity with ThinkorSwim will be helpful.

After purchasing the bundle, you'll receive Google Drive access with all indicator files and detailed installation instructions. Open ThinkorSwim, go to Studies → Create Study → thinkScript Editor, paste the code, save it, and add it to your chart.

Within 12 hours, you'll receive a confirmation email and access to our Google Drive containing all ThinkScript files, installation guides, and documentation. You'll have lifetime access to all current and future indicators.

Trading & Instruments

Our indicators are optimized for index futures: NQ (Nasdaq 100), ES (S&P 500), and GC (Gold). We focus on these highly liquid instruments because they provide the most consistent results for our trading strategies.

While technically possible, our indicators are specifically designed and tested for futures markets. Performance may vary significantly on other instruments. We recommend using them on the intended futures contracts.

Most indicators are optimized for intraday trading on 1, 2, 3, and 5-minute charts. Some also work well on 15-minute and 1-hour timeframes. Each indicator page specifies the recommended timeframes.

Our indicators provide visual signals on your charts, but we do not provide trading recommendations or automated alerts. All trading decisions should be your own based on your analysis and risk tolerance.

Technical Support

First, ensure you're using ThinkorSwim and have copied the code correctly. Check that your chart timeframe is compatible. If issues persist, reach out through our contact methods with screenshots of any error messages.

Absolutely! All source code is provided, and you're free to modify it for your needs. We encourage customization to fit your trading style. Just remember that modifications may affect performance.

We provide community support for installation and basic usage questions. For complex customizations or advanced support, we may direct you to relevant resources or documentation.

Indicators are updated based on market feedback and performance analysis. Major updates are announced in our articles. Minor bug fixes and improvements are made regularly.

Trading Education

Yes! Our articles cover complete trading strategies, not just indicator usage. We provide real trade examples, entry/exit criteria, risk management, and psychological insights from actual trading sessions.

Our content spans from beginner to advanced levels. Beginner articles cover fundamentals, while advanced pieces dive into complex strategies. Each article indicates its difficulty level and prerequisites.

Absolutely. Learning from failures is crucial. We share detailed breakdowns of losing trades, what went wrong, and lessons learned. This transparency helps you avoid similar mistakes.

We publish new articles regularly based on current market conditions and trading insights. Quality over quantity is our focus - each piece provides substantial value rather than filler content.

Our research analyzes intraday trading patterns for different weekdays using historical data. We break down 10-minute intervals to show which times of day perform best for NQ, ES, and GC on each weekday, helping traders identify optimal entry and exit windows.

The heatmaps show average returns for each 10-minute interval throughout the trading day. Green indicates positive performance, red shows negative performance. Click on any cell to see detailed statistics including session count and exact return percentages.

Research & Data

Our research is based on extensive historical market data, typically analyzing hundreds of trading sessions for each instrument and weekday combination. This ensures statistical significance and reliable pattern identification.

All our research uses real historical market data from actual trading sessions. We never use simulated or theoretical data - every analysis reflects actual market conditions and price movements.

Use the instrument selector in the sidebar to switch between NQ, ES, and GC. The active instrument shows all weekdays expanded. Click on other instruments to jump to their Monday analysis, then navigate to other weekdays from there.

Currently, the research data is presented through our interactive web interface. We may consider data export features in the future based on user demand and feedback.

Research data is updated periodically as we gather more historical data and refine our analysis methods. Major updates are announced through our content and may include additional instruments or improved methodologies.

Community & Contact
