Example 1 – eMini S&P - 4min Trading Chart – Day Ending…

No cherry picking here, the example chart is today's trading action on the day I am writing this..

There have been no other cluster signals the rest of the day – at all other times the 4D Trading Desk was a mixture of green and red signals - do not trade when mixed info.

4D Cluster Trading results for today: 3 Trades with total +20 Points Profit

(…of course, depending on your profit target Cluster Signal 3: Short 4 Points Profit or exit strategy…)

There is also a “Master Alarm” feature with individual rule set build in:

This Master Alarm will tell you when a

GREEN BOX shows up when cluster of red/green signals is active. rules agree with 4D screen. Additional sound will be played. Now you can start to relax:

The “Master Alarm” feature will inform you SumCellColor when a trade setup forms over all macro function in action that timeframes. You will get a visual and audible scans the given area for red and green cells. alarm from the 4D Desk when a high probability trade setup occurs.

And even better:

The rules according to your own individual need when you want to be alerted can fully be adjusted.

www.whentotrade.com Wave59 - 4D Trading Desk © 2009 Copyright Lars von Thienen

The EventLog Feature will track all alarm/cluster changes during the day

If you want to review all signals during the day after-market, you can now review the protocoll in the Event Log.

So if you did set-up a longer timeframe 4D Desk for position trading and are not able to watch the screen in real-time, this feature will help you.

You can now review if there was a cluster signal during the day in the evening.

Behind the scenes…

In your Wave59:

Open 7 different charts: - eMini: 1minute, 4minute, 15minute, 60minute, 120minute and daily - VIX: 4minute On each chart: - Activate the “4D_Desk_Example1” (Qscript) This indicator just calculates the SmartMoney, Heikin Ashi, RSI, SlowStoch, 95 and ExBar values and stores them in the global array toolbox automatically after each new bar. Now open your Microsoft Excel - Open the “4D_eMini_Example1.xls” file - The Excel sheet activates the Real-Time-Data (RTD) Engine and connects to your Wave59 instance and global array toolbox automatically - From now on the excel spreadsheet will be updated automatically with a hybrid push/pull bridge between Wave59 and Excel (via global array toolkit and RTD Engine)

www.whentotrade.com Wave59 - 4D Trading Desk © 2009 Copyright Lars von Thienen

There is no limit…

You can individualize your own trading desk. All data is available real-time from your W59 engine. Just push the data into the global array from your individual QScripts and arrange your own monitoring data spreadsheet in Excel. Once you have designed your spreadsheet all data will be updating real-time automatically….

Now it is up to you how to use it….

(Warning: This example is not a trading strategy – it is just a simple demonstration how you can use the toolkit…)

www.whentotrade.com Wave59 - 4D Trading Desk © 2009 Copyright Lars von Thienen

There is no limit… think about…

• Use your own individual indicator combos and build your trading screen to speed up your decision making process during the trading session.

• Just “count” the red and green cells and build a master buy/sell index out of all timeframes and different indicators on the monitor.

• Add audible alerts on the desk according to your own rules – “if more than 5 cells go into a red condition play a sound…”.

• Build your own forex monitor: Watch different currency pairs at once and build your own “strength” indicator cockpit that you can trade strength between currencies on one monitor.

• Activate different trading strategies (scripts) and pass the buy/sell signals into the 4D monitor that you can watch the signals and build “weighted system signals”.

www.whentotrade.com 4D Trading Desk: May 07 again at 09:42am

Here is the reading of the screen at this time: The market moved at 09:42 from 926 to 907 during the next two hours! 1. 18 Overbought conditions on all timeframes and even on the VIX. The market is poised for a correction in this strong uptrend. A nice 19 points short ride…. 2. No diverging green condition left - all have gone off. 3. 4 new sell triggers rushed in during the last 4 minutes. 4. There are still 5 sell trigger active on the longer term timeframes. So we have 9 sell triggers active in total at this moment.

Or to keep it simple: A screaming RED SCREEN.

But you will be able to unlock even more power out of the forex market with the 4D Toolkit:

1. Use a 4D strength screen to identify the currency pair with highest potential for a move

Build a 4D Desk where you monitor different currency pairs on the same timeframe (for example 120minutes) and calculate the strength value for each currency. Then select the pair with the strongest and weakest currency (highest imbalance). For example if the USD is the strongest currency against all other pairs and the CHF is the weakest currency. Then you can choose the USDCHF pair to look for a long trade setup.

2. Use a second Multi-Time-Frame 4D Screen for the identified pair and look for a cluster signal

After you have identified the pair with the highest potential for a move, switch to your second 4D Trading Desk Screen. In this screen you will only monitor one currency pair over different timeframes and will look for a cluster signal. In our example, we will open our 4D Monitor for the USDCHF currency pair and look for a long master alarm.

With this setup, you will have an edge in forex trading, that is not available out there anywhere. www.whentotrade.com
