1. Direction & Confidence

The big word at the top — CALL — is what the indicators are saying. It's the trade direction you'd use on your broker.

  • CALL = indicators point up — price may rise from here
  • PUT = indicators point down — price may drop from here
  • WAIT = indicators are split or flat — don't force a trade, sit this one out

The Confidence score (92%) runs from 0 to 95. Higher means the indicators agree more strongly. At 92%, that's strong conviction — the indicators are clearly aligned behind this direction.

Agreement (100%) tells you what share of active indicators point the same way. At 100%, most indicators agree — that's a cleaner, higher-quality signal.

⚠️ This signal has a HIGH risk grade — meaning indicators are conflicting or data is sparse. Trade smaller or skip this one.

2. Strength Bar

The STR bar (84) measures how extreme the indicator readings are, from 0 to 100. A number near 80+ means the indicators are at extremes — deeply oversold or overbought, which often signals a reversal. A low number means the signal is mild and may not play out as strongly.

  • 0-40: Mild — the indicators barely lean one way
  • 40-70: Moderate — a clear lean, worth paying attention
  • 70-100: Strong — indicators are at extremes, signal has weight

For binary options, higher strength often correlates with clearer reversals — but extremes can also mean the trend is intense. Use strength together with the timeframe: on 1M, high strength fades fast; on 1H, it tends to hold longer.

3. Confluence — Reading the Vote

The green/red bar below the strength shows how each indicator voted:

2 bullish (CALL) · 0 bearish (PUT) · 2 neutral (no signal)

The ratio 2/0 is a quick health check. 2 indicators pointing one way — enough to form a signal, but not unanimous. Check the risk grade.

4. Indicator Table

Four rows — one per indicator — with individual verdicts and strength scores:

  • RSI — overbought (>70) or oversold (<30). Extreme readings often precede reversals.
  • Bollinger Bands — where price sits within the volatility bands. Near the lower band = oversold, near the upper band = overbought.
  • MACD — trend direction and momentum. A "cross" (bullish_cross or bearish_cross) is a stronger signal than a simple "trend."
  • Stochastic — short-term momentum. K below 20 = oversold, K above 80 = overbought.

When all 4 indicators agree, you have a Low Risk signal. When they split, the risk grade goes up — use your judgment.

5. Price Context

The bottom row gives you quick market context:

  • Price — current bid price
  • Spread — difference between bid and ask, as a percentage. Lower spreads (<0.1%) are better for short-expiry trades.
  • 24h — how much the pair moved in the last 24 hours. Big moves = more volatility.
  • Day pos — where the current price sits within the 24h range. 0% = at the low, 100% = at the high. Mid-range (40-60%) = price is consolidating.

6. Risk Grade

LOW: Most indicators agree, data is clean. Higher confidence trade.

MEDIUM: Some disagreement among indicators, or one indicator is borderline. Trade with normal caution.

HIGH: Indicators conflict significantly or data is sparse/flatlined. Consider skipping this trade or reducing your position.

Risk grade is the single most important thing to check before you place a trade. A CALL with 95% confidence but HIGH risk is less reliable than a CALL at 70% confidence with LOW risk. Always glance at the risk grade first — it'll save you from bad entries.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I always trade when the signal says CALL or PUT?+
No. The signal is a tool — not a guarantee. Always check the risk grade. If it says HIGH, the indicators are split and the outcome is less certain. Also consider the timeframe: 1M signals change fast, 1H signals are more stable. Use signals as one input alongside your own chart reading and money management.
What timeframe should I trade on?+
It depends on your expiry. On Quotex and Pocket Option, 1M and 5M signals match short expiries (30s-5min). 15M and 30M work well for 5-15 minute expiries. 1H and 4H are better for longer trades. Match your expiry to the signal's timeframe for the best results.
Why do some indicators show "Flatline" or "No data"?+
Some forex pairs are illiquid on certain timeframes — there isn't enough trading activity to calculate a meaningful indicator reading. When RSI shows "Flatline," it means the data stream was flat for that period. These signals are less reliable — and the risk grade will usually be HIGH to warn you.
How is confidence calculated?+
Confidence is a weighted blend of indicator agreement and signal strength, minus a penalty for conflicting indicators. It's capped at 95% because no signal is ever 100% certain. A confidence above 80% means strong alignment; below 50% means the indicators are uncertain.
