A car-style head-up display: one big speed number shows how much every trend tool agrees, with dials for each tool and a warning when a move is stretched.

1Speed: 0 to 100 MPH. The faster, the more of everything agrees. Green BULLISH, red BEARISH, under 10 MIXED.
2Lights and gear: more lights the faster it reads. Gear D = higher highs, R = lower lows, N = mixed.
3Rev: RSI. REDLINE = the move is stretched, so don’t chase.
4Road: how busy the market is: QUIET, NORMAL or WILD.
5VWAP and timeframes: price against today’s average (1m–15m charts) and how many of 7 timeframes agree.
6Five tool dials: Moving average, ADX, MACD, Supertrend and Ichimoku. Ring green = up, amber = unsure, red = down.
7Steepness dial: needle left = BEAR, right = BULL, top = FLAT.
8Agreement dial: how many of the five tools agree. 4/5 or 5/5 = a clear direction.
9Volume meter: red bricks = selling share, green = buying share.
10Trend dash: the trend on seven timeframes, 1 minute to 4 hours, plus a consensus.
Use it in 5 steps
- Switch it onOpen Charts → AI Scanners → tick BTM – Trend MPH. The dashboard appears at the bottom of the chart, for example GER40 15-minute.
- Read the speedThe faster the big number, the more the tools agree. A high reading in green BULLISH or red BEARISH with 4/5 or 5/5 on the Agreement dial means a clear direction. MIXED or a low speed means wait.
- Check it is trendingGrey candles, a FLAT Steepness dial, a QUIET Road gauge or RANGING in the table mean no trend. Trend tools work poorly here.
- Check the bigger pictureLook at the Trend dash. A Consensus that matches the dials (e.g. 5/7 BULL) means the timeframes line up.
- Use it to confirmIt shows direction only, no entries. Only take your own trade ideas that go the same way, and always set a stop loss.
The HUD screen
Speed adds up every dial, the timeframes, gear, VWAP and volume: 0 MPH = they disagree, 100 MPH = they all point the same way. Rev: in the red the move is stretched, so don’t chase. Road: quiet, normal or wild. Prefer the old dials? ⚙ Settings → Dashboard look → Classic.
The Trend dash table
- Each row checks that timeframe’s last closed candle against its 50 EMA (an average) and whether that average is rising.
- ▲ BULL = above and rising, ▼ BEAR = below and falling, – FLAT = neither.
- Consensus needs 5 of the 7 timeframes to agree, otherwise it says MIXED.
- Asset = the market type it found. Stretch and Road repeat the top gauges; Market says TRENDING or RANGING.
- Click the title bar to hide or show it.
Golden rules
- Learning? Only act on 4/5 or 5/5 when the candles are not grey and the Rev counter is not in the red.
- Never skip the stop loss. Risk 1% of your account or less per trade.
- Skip big news times (rate decisions, NFP).
- Practise first with the Replay button: play old candles forward and trade them for free.
