Secret Sauce Signals V1

4 天前

Unique Value Proposition: Secret Sauce is a proprietary signal generation system that combines hidden institutional expansion levels with multi-timeframe flip detection to identify high-probability reversal points. Unlike traditional support/resistance or PDH/PDL indicators that simply draw lines, Secret Sauce employs a sophisticated price proximity detection algorithm that triggers signals only when trend flips occur WHILE price is actively touching specific expansion zones—a critical confluence factor that dramatically improves signal quality.

What Makes This Indicator Unique:

Proprietary Line System: Utilizes hardcoded institutional expansion levels from Previous Day High/Low that are NOT visible to users. Signals only trigger when price touches these hidden "secret sauce" levels simultaneously with a trend flip, creating a high-conviction entry system not found in standard PDH/PDL indicators.

Dual Strategy Architecture:

Secret Sauce Strategy: Generates buy/sell signals when trend flips occur AT hidden expansion levels (buying dips at secret support, selling rips at secret resistance)

MTF Day Trading Strategy: Auto-selects optimal higher timeframes based on chart period and generates signals when HTF flip is confirmed by LTF flip in the same direction

ATP (Add To Position) Logic: Intelligent signal clustering system that identifies when multiple signals occur within proximity (15 bars), automatically flagging additional entries as "ATP" signals rather than new positions—crucial for proper position sizing.

Auto-Adaptive HTF Selection: Unlike fixed-timeframe MTF indicators, Secret Sauce automatically selects the optimal higher timeframe based on your chart period:
1min chart → 15min HTF (15x multiplier)
5min chart → 45min HTF (9x multiplier)
15min chart → 45min HTF (3x multiplier)
30min+ → Higher timeframes accordingly

Strict Confluence Requirement: Signals only appear when flip detection AND secret level touch occur simultaneously (current bar must touch secret level while flip is happening)—not before, not after. This eliminates the weak signals produced by indicators that trigger on proximity alone.

Core Features:

Hidden Expansion Level System: Proprietary calculation of alpha lines at specific percentages above PDH and below PDL (levels are calculated but never displayed to maintain edge)

Integrated Trend Flip Detection: Real-time flip candidate tracking with dynamic flip trigger level updates (same engine as Trend Smacker)

Dual Signal Types: Choose between Secret Sauce (high-conviction reversals), MTF Day Trading (timeframe alignment), or Both strategies simultaneously

Smart ATP Detection: Automatically identifies follow-up signals within 15-bar proximity and labels them as "Add To Position" entries

Tolerance Adjustment: Configurable sensitivity (0.01%-0.15%) for secret level proximity detection

Visual Dashboard: Real-time display of chart timeframe, selected HTF, and current HTF bias

How It Works:

Secret Sauce Strategy: The indicator calculates Previous Day High/Low each day, then generates hidden expansion levels at proprietary percentages above and below these levels. When price action creates a trend flip (bearish to bullish or vice versa) AND the current candle is touching one of these secret levels, a signal triggers. Buy signals appear at negative expansions below PDL (buying institutional support), while sell signals appear at positive expansions above PDH (selling institutional resistance). The strict requirement for SIMULTANEOUS flip + level touch ensures only the highest quality setups generate signals.

MTF Day Trading Strategy: The indicator monitors a higher timeframe for trend flips (auto-selected based on your chart period). When the HTF flips bullish, the indicator waits for the current chart timeframe to also flip bullish—when this alignment occurs, a buy signal is generated. The reverse applies for bearish setups. This ensures entries are backed by both micro and macro trend alignment.

ATP System: When a primary signal triggers (BUY or SELL), the system tracks subsequent signals within 15 bars. If another signal occurs in the same direction within this window, it's labeled "ATP" instead of generating a new primary signal—helping traders properly scale into positions rather than over-leveraging.

Customization Options:

Strategy Selection: Choose Secret Sauce, MTF Day Trading, or Both

Secret Sauce Tolerance: Adjust proximity sensitivity (0.01-0.15%)

HTF Mode: Auto-select (recommended) or manual HTF selection

Color Schemes: Separate customization for Secret Sauce signals (green/red/orange) and MTF signals (purple/orange)

Alert Configuration: Toggle alerts for buy signals, sell signals, or both

Visual Elements: Customize text colors, signal colors, and label styles

Ideal For:

Day traders seeking high-conviction reversal entries
Scalpers looking for institutional support/resistance confluence
Swing traders wanting to enter at optimal levels
Multi-timeframe traders requiring alignment confirmation
Traders who value quality over quantity in signal generation
Signal Types Explained:

BUY (Green): Secret Sauce bullish flip at hidden support level
SELL (Red): Secret Sauce bearish flip at hidden resistance level
ATP (Orange): Add-to-position signal within 15 bars of primary signal
BUY (Purple): MTF strategy - HTF bullish confirmed by LTF bullish flip
SELL (Orange): MTF strategy - HTF bearish confirmed by LTF bearish flip
Important Notes:

Secret Sauce levels are calculated but intentionally never displayed to protect the edge
Signals are designed for quality, not quantity—expect fewer but higher-probability setups
Works best on liquid futures markets (ES, NQ, YM, RTY)
MTF strategy auto-selects optimal HTF ratios for your chart timeframe
ATP signals help with proper position scaling and risk management
Previous Day High/Low resets daily using session boundaries
This is a professional signal generation system designed for serious traders who understand that confluence between multiple factors (trend direction, institutional levels, timeframe alignment) creates the highest-probability trade opportunities.

Overview
Secret Sauce is a precision signal indicator designed to identify high-probability buy and sell opportunities by combining proprietary price level analysis with real-time trend confirmation. The indicator offers two distinct trading strategies that can be used independently or together, giving traders flexibility across different market conditions and trading styles.

How It Works

The indicator operates on a dual-strategy framework, allowing traders to select the approach that best fits their methodology.

Secret Sauce Strategy: This mode identifies key institutional price levels derived from the previous day's trading range. When price reaches these calculated levels and simultaneously confirms a trend reversal, the indicator generates a high-conviction signal. The combination of level interaction and structural confirmation filters out weak setups, focusing only on opportunities where multiple factors align.

MTF Day Trading Strategy: This mode synchronizes higher timeframe trend shifts with lower timeframe entry timing. When the higher timeframe confirms a directional change, the indicator waits for the chart timeframe to produce a confirming flip in the same direction. This alignment ensures traders enter in harmony with the broader market structure rather than fighting against it.

Add To Position (ATP) Signals: When multiple signal conditions occur in close proximity, the indicator recognizes this as a particularly strong setup and generates an ATP signal. These represent opportunities to scale into existing positions with added confidence.
Intelligent Timeframe Selection

For the MTF Day Trading strategy, the indicator automatically selects an optimal higher timeframe based on your chart. This removes guesswork and ensures appropriate timeframe relationships are maintained. Manual override is available for traders who prefer custom configurations.

Why This Matters
Successful trading requires more than identifying potential turning points. It demands confirmation that the market is actually responding to those levels. Secret Sauce addresses this by requiring both level interaction and structural confirmation before generating signals. This dual requirement significantly reduces false signals compared to level-based or flip-based systems used in isolation.

The multi-timeframe approach further enhances signal quality by ensuring entries align with the prevailing higher timeframe trend, a principle central to institutional trading methodologies.

Recommended Use
Select the strategy mode that matches your trading style. Use Secret Sauce for mean-reversion setups at key levels, MTF Day Trading for trend-following entries, or enable both to capture opportunities across different market behaviors. Configure alerts to receive notifications when signals occur, allowing you to evaluate setups in real time without constant chart monitoring.
