The Arrow Scalper is a short-term scalping strategy for MT5 that combines:

1. Arrow indicator signals – amplitude 2 (primary entry trigger)

2. Centered TMA Bands – trend filter based on center line color

3. Optional ATR filter – for volatility confirmation

This setup avoids chaotic indicators and ensures clear, deterministic entry signals for fast-moving markets.

Indicators Used

1. Arrow Indicator (Amplitude = 2)

   • Generates visual arrows at potential entry points.

     Red arrow → potential sell

     Green arrow → potential buy

2. Centered TMA Bands (MT5)

   • Center line color indicates trend:

     • Blue = bullish trend → only buy trades allowed

       Red = bearish trend → only sell trades allowed

3. ATR(14) (optional)

   • Filters out low-volatility periods

Time Frame 1 min or higher.

Currency pairs: volatile.

Entry Rules

BUY Conditions

1. Arrow indicator draws a green arrow.

2. TMA center line is blue (bullish trend).

3. Optional: ATR(14) > threshold (market is active).

Enter buy at the close of the candle that produced the arrow.

SELL Conditions

1. Arrow indicator draws a red arrow.

2. TMA center line is red (bearish trend).

3. Optional: ATR(14) > threshold.

Enter sell at the close of the candle that produced the arrow.

Exit Rules

Each trade should include a stop loss placed approximately 1.5 × ATR(14) away from the entry level.
The take profit target can be fixed (for example, 5–10 pips for major pairs) or dynamically calculated using the same ATR multiplier.
A trailing stop can be used to lock in profits once the position moves into positive territory.
If the TMA center line changes color against your trade direction, close the position immediately.
Optionally, you can also close any trade that remains open for too long (e.g., after 15–20 minutes) without significant movement.

Conclusion

The Arrow-TMA Scalper (ATS) offers a clear, disciplined approach to intraday trading.
The arrow indicator provides precise entry timing, while the TMA color filter ensures trades follow the dominant market trend.
This combination keeps the system simple, visual, and powerful — ideal for traders who want a fast, rule-based scalping method that avoids the chaos of over-complicated indicators.
