Ivan Gomes StrategyIG Signals+ - Ivan Gomes Strategy
This script is designed for scalping and binary options trading, generating buy and sell signals at the beginning of each candle. Although it is mainly optimized for short-term operations, it can also be used for medium and long-term strategies with appropriate adjustments.
How It Works
• The indicator provides buy or sell signals at the start of the candle, based on a statistical probability of candle patterns, depending on the timeframe.
• It is essential to enter the trade immediately after the signal appears and exit at the end of the same candle.
• If the first operation results in a loss (Loss), the script will send another trade signal at the start of the next candle. However, if the first trade results in a win (Gain), no new signal will be generated.
• The signals follow cycles of 3 candles, regardless of the timeframe. However, if a Doji candle appears, the cycle is interrupted, and no signals will be generated until the next valid cycle starts.
• The strategy consists of up to two trades per cycle: if the first trade is not successful, the second trade serves as an additional attempt to recover.
Key Points to Consider
1. Avoid trading in sideways markets – If price levels do not fluctuate significantly, the accuracy of the signals may decrease.
2. Trade in the direction of the trend – Using Ichimoku clouds or other trend indicators can help confirm trend direction and improve signal reliability. If the market is in an uptrend (bullish trend) and the indicator generates a sell signal, the most prudent decision would be to wait for a buy signal that aligns with the main trend. The same applies to downtrends, where buy signals may be riskier.
These decisions should be based on chart reading and supported by other technical analysis tools, such as support and resistance levels, which indicate zones where price might face obstacles or reverse direction. Additionally, Fibonacci retracement levels can help identify possible pullback points within a trend. Moving averages are also useful for visualizing the general market direction and confirming whether an indicator signal aligns with the overall price structure. Combining these tools can increase trade accuracy and prevent unnecessary trades against the main trend, reducing risks.
3. Works based on probability statistics – The algorithm analyzes candle formations and their statistical probabilities depending on the timeframe to optimize trade entries.
4. Best suited for scalping and binary options – This strategy performs best in 1-minute and 5-minute timeframes, allowing for multiple trades throughout the day.
Technical Details
• The script detects the candle cycle and assigns an index to each candle to identify patterns and possible reversals.
• It recognizes reference candles, stores their colors, and compares them with subsequent candles to determine if a signal should be triggered.
• Doji candle rules are implemented to avoid false signals in indecisive market conditions. When a Doji appears, the script does not generate signals for that cycle.
• The indicator displays visual alerts and notifications, ensuring fast execution of trades.
Disclaimer
The IG Signals+ indicator was created to assist traders who struggle to analyze the market by providing objective trade signals. However, no strategy is foolproof, and this script does not guarantee profits.
Trading involves significant financial risk, and users should test it in a demo account before trading with real money. Proper risk management is crucial for long-term success.
