With VANGUARD, you will learn to read the market’s hidden intentions: a candle pointing upward while sellers are already taking control—visible in the Point of Control and confirmed by a Finished Auction.
Developed for the S&P 500 future, VANGUARD combines order flow analysis with clear, rules-based entry signals on a unique chart type.
VANGUARD is based on a simple but powerful principle: If a candle points upward, but the Point of Control within its body already shows a negative delta—and at the same time a Finished Auction signals that no buyers are active below this candle—this is a clear indication of an impending move downward. The same applies in reverse for long setups. This divergence between candle direction and market response is the core of VANGUARD: You see what the market is really intending to do before it shows it.
Whether you are new to the world of order flow trading and are looking for a structured entry, have already gained initial experience with footprint charts, or are an experienced futures trader seeking a backtestable, rules-based approach with clear risk management—VANGUARD offers you a system that has proven itself historically and can be fully adapted to your preferred market.
Most chart setups are based on what price does. VANGUARD is based on what volume reveals—and what contradicts the candle direction. When a green, bullish candle forms but the Point of Control within its body is already negative, it means sellers were dominant even though price briefly moved up. Combined with a Finished Auction—the sign that there is no longer any buying interest below the candle—this creates a precise, repeatable entry signal.
VANGUARD works with the RangeUS chart, a chart type that weights trend and counter-moves differently: trend continuations produce shorter candles (8 price levels), while counter-moves produce slightly longer candles (12 price levels). This makes sideways phases and trend reversals particularly clear on the chart. VWAP separates the long zone from the short zone. Within the respective zone, the signal constellation is sought: candle direction, negative or positive POC in the body, and the matching Finished Auction. When the signal appears, a stop order is placed for exactly two bars.
VANGUARD is fully backtestable and adaptable to any liquid futures market. With the integrated Cluster Search Indicator, valid signals are highlighted directly on the chart—as colored triangles that combine with the Finished Auction markings to form an unambiguous signal. The result: less interpretation, more clarity, and a system you can apply in any market using the same core principles.
Learn how the combination of POC divergence and Finished Auction generates reliable entry signals. VANGUARD shows you what the market is really intending to do—not what the candle direction suggests, but what volume confirms.
VANGUARD delivers precise long and short signals in every market phase—whether trending or consolidating. With the Cluster Search Indicator, valid setups are automatically highlighted on the chart, so you can focus on the decision—not the search.
VANGUARD was developed for the S&P 500 and can be applied to any liquid future—from Nasdaq to gold. For your desired market, individual backtesting results with optimized parameters are available, including stop sizes and the best trading times.
