The 1 Minute Scalping Indicator is a TradingView tool that generates buy and sell signals from pure price action, comparing the current candle to the previous candle so there’s no lag from other indicators. Three trade modes (Fast, Medium, Smooth But Fast) let you control reaction speed and how long positions are held.
The indicator includes candle coloring that paints according to the direction price is currently moving, automatic trailing stop loss, three take profit levels, auto trend filtering using built-in moving averages, and the ability to filter signals using up to 3 external indicators for maximum confluence.
WHAT IT DOES
Green up arrows indicate bullish price action, red down arrows indicate bearish. Yellow arrows appear when conditions are met but the candle has weak characteristics (small body, large wicks). Wait for confirming price action before following yellow signals.
Arrow sizes are adjustable (small, medium, large). Unconfirmed signals while the candle is still open display as partially transparent. Once the candle closes, the arrow becomes fully solid.
Both can be independently toggled on or off.
Candles paint according to the detected price action direction, helping reduce anxiety while watching candles bounce back and forth. Colors are customizable and can be turned off if you prefer standard candles. You must turn off your chart’s built-in candle coloring for this to display.
The stop loss finds the highest high or lowest low of the past X candles (Candle Trail Length) and adds a buffer based on average candle size multiplied by your chosen multiple. It updates automatically on every new bar and flips when an opposing signal comes in.
Trailing Stop Loss Mode: After taking a confirmed signal, enable this to suppress all new signals and trail your stop until it’s hit. The stop line turns orange when hit. Turn the mode off manually after exiting.
Three configurable take profit levels using average candle size multiplied by your chosen multiples (default: 3x, 6x, 9x). Levels calculate from where the most recent signal locked in at candle close and don’t change until an opposing signal is confirmed.
Optional filter that rejects signals on small candles that breach market structure. Default is off. When off, signals fire regardless of candle size. When on, it helps avoid false signals but may occasionally cause late entries during fast moves.
HOW TO TRADE WITH IT
Use Smooth But Fast mode with the default settings for quick entries and exits. Watch for green arrows at support levels and red arrows at resistance levels. Use the auto trend filtering or external indicator filters to only take signals in the trend direction.
Take a confirmed signal entry, then enable Trailing Stop Loss Mode. This suppresses all new signals and trails your stop automatically. Hold until your stop is hit to maximize the trade. Turn the mode off once you exit to resume normal signals.
Enable the Higher Timeframe Candle Filter to prevent new signals until the previous higher timeframe candle’s high or low has been passed. This smooths out signal frequency and helps hold trades longer. Works well during low volatility. Turn it off during major volatility for the earliest entries and exits.
TRADE WITH THE TREND
A built-in trend filtering feature uses two custom moving averages for trend detection. Four modes:
The auto trend filtering works on the 15s, 30s, 1m, 2m, 3m, and 5m charts. Other timeframes are not supported. Use external indicator filters instead. The short and long moving averages can be displayed on the chart independently of whether the auto filter is enabled.
When auto filtering is active, candles that meet the trend parameters show in your chosen bull/bear colors. Gray candles indicate neutral conditions to help you stay out of trades.
Filter signals using up to 3 external indicators that output 1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral). Only buy signals fire when the external indicator shows bullish, only sell signals when bearish, and no signals when neutral.
The auto trend filter and external indicator filters can be used simultaneously for maximum filtering.
The indicator outputs its own trend direction value (1/−1/0) that other indicators on the same chart can use as a filter source.
