How It Works

Understanding the technology behind ExpertOption Signals

1

Multi-Timeframe Analysis

Our system analyzes the 1-hour timeframe to detect the larger trend before generating signals on shorter timeframes.

How the 1H Filter Works

  • SMA Crossover: 50/200 SMA determines bullish or bearish trend
  • Price Position: Price above/below SMA confirms trend direction
  • Alignment Bonus: Signals aligned with 1H trend get +10 strength
  • Counter-Trend Filter: Weakens or blocks signals against strong 1H trend

Market Regime Detection

Using ADX (Average Directional Index), we detect whether the market is trending or ranging, then apply the appropriate strategy.

Trending Market

ADX > 25. Momentum strategies work best. Trade in trend direction.

Ranging Market

ADX < 25. Mean-reversion preferred. Buy oversold, sell overbought.

ADX Calculation

Measures 14-period price movements to determine trend strength. Values above 25 indicate a trending market, below 20 suggest ranging conditions.

Session-Aware Algorithms

Different trading sessions have different characteristics. Our signals automatically adjust based on the current session.

London / New York High Volatility

Momentum strategies work best. Trend following rewarded. Higher accuracy during overlap.

Asian Low Volatility

Mean-reversion preferred. Range trading works better. JPY and AUD pairs may be more active.

Sydney Lowest Volatility

Higher confidence threshold required. Fewer trading opportunities but less noise.

4

Confirmations System

Signals are generated only when multiple indicators agree. More confirmations = higher strength score.

Technical Indicators Used

RSI Overbought/oversold conditions
Momentum Price velocity measurement
SMA Simple moving average crossovers
ADX Trend strength detection

Signal Strength Calculation

  • • Base score from combined indicators
  • • +10 if aligned with 1H trend
  • • +5-15 session-specific bonus
  • • Counter-trend signals reduced or blocked
