Recommended Configuration

To help you get the most out of TrendAlpha OB and TrendAlpha GC, we’ve put together a recommended configuration based on extensive testing and real-world trading scenarios. These settings are designed to optimize performance and provide actionable insights for your trading strategy.

TrendAlpha OB Configuration

Key Settings:

• Tuning: 6
  This sensitivity level strikes a balance between detecting significant order blocks and avoiding excessive noise.
• Number of Grids: 10
  Provides a detailed volume profile within each order block for better validation.
• Mitigation Method: Close Engulfs 100% of the Order Block
  Ensures strong confirmation of order blocks by requiring the price to fully engulf the block.

Recommended Timeframe Analysis:

• Primary Timeframe: 4H
  The 4-hour timeframe is ideal for identifying powerful order blocks that align with intraday and swing trading strategies.
• Lower Timeframes: Works well for scalping and short-term trading, but higher timeframes (e.g., Daily, Weekly) tend to produce more reliable and impactful order blocks.
