Central Control in the Settings Menu
Everything Starts in a Clear Main Menu Where You Define All Strategy Components. Whether Time Filters, Volume Filters, or Chart-Specific Requirements: You Have a Clear View of All Parameters and Can Change Them in Seconds.
Variety of Bar and Candle Factors
Choose from an Extensive Range of Candle Criteria Such as Inside Bars, Doji Configurations, Wick Lengths, and Much More. This Allows You to Highly Customize Entry and Exit Signals.
Delta-Based Entry Signals
Use the Delta of Individual Bars (Positive, Negative, Neutral) as a Basis for Long or Short Trades. For Example, You Can Only Allow Entries When There Is a Strongly Positive Delta Indicating Buying Pressure.
VPOC and Volume Filters
Specify in Which Part of the Candle (e.g., Wick or Body) the VPOC Should Be Located or What Minimum Volume a VPOC Must Have Before a Signal Is Triggered. This Allows You to Filter Out Irrelevant Market Movements Even More Precisely.
Time and Session-Dependent Triggers
Limit Your Trades to Specific Weekdays, Times of Day, or Trading Sessions. You Determine When Your Strategy Should Be Active, Such as Only During the Main Trading Hours.
Recognizing Trend Developments
Define How Many Consecutive Bars Must Be Bullish or Bearish Before Your System Sends a Signal. This Helps Avoid False Movements and More Efficiently Utilize Real Trend Changes.
Multiple Conditions per Signal
Combine various factors: For example, a bar can fulfill specific wick and volume values while simultaneously requiring the time to be within a defined window. Trading only occurs when all criteria are met.
Continuous Adaptation
Change your entry and exit conditions at any time and observe the direct effects in real-time. Sentinel keeps an eye on your open trades and adapts without interruptions.
Stop Conditions as Part of Strategy Logic
Set emergency stops that take effect as soon as a signal is recognized. This keeps your risk manageable even when the market moves rapidly.
Branched Trigger Structures
Build complex, branched signal chains. This allows you to define that an entry signal only becomes active if another criterion was previously met. Ideal for highly differentiated trading ideas.
SidiFootprint Data
Use Market Memory zones, volume clusters, or imbalances directly in the Sentinel settings to filter special market areas or generate signals.
VolumeLevels (VWAP, VAL, VAH, VPOC)
Incorporate various VolumeLevels as filters: for example, only trade when the price is above the VAH or breaks through the daily VWAP.
ZoneFinder Impulses
When certain zones are broken through or tested, Sentinel can create an entry or exit signal. This way, you trade automatically based on relevant support and resistance areas.
Mirage for Gap and Continuation Setups
Incorporate gap signals (direct or retest) and continuation signals (direct or retest) into your strategy. This allows you to recognize potential trend continuations or reversal points without constant manual searching.
Heiken Ashi Integration
Link smoothing information from Heiken-Ashi bars to, for example, only enter long, same-color candle series and avoid volatile intermediate fluctuations.
NinjaTrader Standard Indicators
RSI, MACD, SMA, EMA, and many more are directly available to you. Combine them with volume data or candle signals to calibrate your strategies precisely.
Custom Scripts: Simple Signal via Code
To integrate an external script into Sentinel, you only need a small code snippet that we provide. Then you name your file as prescribed and generate exactly one output (-1, 0, or +1) in your script. Sentinel automatically reads this value and interprets it as a Short, Neutral, or Long signal. This allows you to easily integrate your own logic into Sentinel without complex implementations or interfaces – you provide a signal, Sentinel takes care of the rest.
Combined Conditions
Link multiple indicators – e.g., RSI and Footprint data – into a single, highly selective signal. No wish remains unfulfilled.
Customizable Parameters per Indicator
Set your own thresholds, time periods, or calculation methods for each incorporated indicator. This allows you to adapt your analysis exactly to your trading philosophy.
Automatic Updates
As soon as an external indicator provides new data, it is considered in real-time in the Sentinel conditions. No delays in the entry signal.
Future-Proof Architecture
You can add or replace additional indicators at any time without changing your entire trading concept. Sentinel structures all sources centrally, making it easy to integrate extensions.
Fully Automated Order Placement
As soon as your conditions are met, Sentinel independently creates the appropriate market, limit, or stop orders without requiring manual intervention.
Multi-Level Partial Profit Taking
Don’t set just one profit target, but multiple tiers. This way, you can secure profits gradually while still staying in the market.
Time- and Event-Based Closing
Decide whether a position should be closed after a certain number of bars, upon reaching a specific market volatility, or at predefined times.
Risk and Money Management Rules
Set daily or weekly limits so that Sentinel stops trading when a loss threshold is exceeded. This protects you from emotional misjudgments.
Individual Stop Strategies for Each Signal
Set specific stop rules for different signals. Perhaps a trend-following setup should stay in the market longer, while a scalp setup is quickly secured.
Flexible Combination of Exit Strategies
Combine volume and price targets. For example, you can close part of the position at volume levels from the SidiVolumeLevels indicator and let the rest run to maximize profits.
Comprehensive OCO Order Management
Use One-Cancels-Other orders that automatically delete another limit or stop once one is triggered. Sentinel coordinates this process seamlessly.
Price and Volume Relations
Analyze whether the current volume is in a specific ratio to the last x bars. For example, you can only enter breakouts when the volume increases significantly.
Trend Confirmation Through Bar Sequences
Determine how many consecutive bullish or bearish bars you need as confirmation before a trade is triggered. This effectively filters out sideways phases.
Inside and Outside Bar Concepts
Let Sentinel recognize whether bars are completely inside or outside the previous bar. This helps you discover potential breakout phases or quiet consolidations.
Utilizing Wick Information
Specify how long upper or lower wicks need to be to signal market weakness or strength, and use this to generate targeted entry or exit signals.
Doji Variants
Define your own rules for how large a candle body can be to qualify as a Doji, and combine this with volume or time filters to trade only truly relevant Dojis.
Delta Changes Across Bars
Let Sentinel automatically determine how the delta develops over multiple bars to identify increasing or decreasing buying/selling pressure.
Multiple VPOC Analyses per Bar
Consider bars with multiple VPOCs and set your own criteria when multiple volume focal points form. This allows you to evaluate complex market structures fully automatically.
Looking at Past Extreme Values
Determine if there were particularly high or low volume spikes within the last x bars and use this information as a filter for the next signal.
Combination of Price and Delta Focus
Create sophisticated hybrid signals that check both pure price behavior (e.g., break of highs) and confirmation signals through delta or volume changes.
Complete Tick History
Sentinel accesses every single price quote during active tick backtesting. This gives you a very realistic picture of how your system would have reacted to fast intraday movements.
Options for Spread
Specify the maximum spread allowed for an order to be executed, ensuring that backtesting is realistic and live trading runs correctly.
Detailed Results Overview
Get trade-by-trade evaluations with profit, loss, entry and exit times, drawdown, profit factor, and many other key metrics.
Time Filter in Backtest
Test your strategy only for relevant trading times when you actually want to be active. You avoid distortions from illiquid phases.
Pre- and Post-Event Analysis
Check if your strategy performs differently during news events (e.g., FOMC or Non-Farm Payrolls). Sentinel analyzes price movements around these events tick by tick.
Multi-Scenario Comparison
Copy your strategy and vary only individual parameters (e.g., stop size or filter thresholds). Then compare the results in a combined statistic.
Export of Backtest Results
Export your results to CSV for further processing in Excel or other analysis tools – ideal for in-depth performance studies.
Graphical Display of Order Executions
Show each individual trade in the chart, including entry and exit candles. This allows you to quickly see if your logic works situationally or not.
Historical Zone Integration
If you use areas from the Footprint or ZoneFinder, Sentinel recognizes these retrospectively in the backtest. This allows you to precisely track how your strategy would have reacted at these points.
Limited Data Intervals
Specifically test shorter, defined periods (e.g., only summer months or only bull market phases) to find out how robust your strategy is in different market environments.
Live Simulation with Replay Function
Replay market data at real-time speed, observe your strategy “trading” and gain an unbiased feel for the system’s reaction in hectic situations.
Clear Main Menu
Find all settings – from entry criteria to risk management – in one large, clearly structured menu. This way, you never lose overview, even when combining many filters.
Real-Time Settings Changes (RTS)
Adjust individual parameters – such as minimum volume or a time filter – directly during runtime. No need to stop or reload the entire strategy.
Color and Design Customization
Choose different themes, color schemes, and font sizes to adapt the menu to your taste and work environment.
Nameable Profiles
Create profile names like “Scalping Setup” or “Trend Following Setup” so you can quickly switch between completely different strategies.
Tooltips and Help Texts
Throughout the menu, you’ll find brief explanations for the respective settings. This way, you learn about the extensive functions step by step.
Multilingual Interface
Switch to German or English if needed (more languages planned). The menu adapts to your language choice, so you can immediately find your way around.
