How to read signals from the Marvin Non Repaint Indicator
The Marvin Non Repaint Indicator highlights a configurable rule set that fires when conditions align. Also, still, hence, a typical workflow looks like this.
Entry idea (long). Wait for a long signal arrow on the configured rule set and confirm with the bar close. Next, wait for the bar to close. Intra-bar values can shift.
Entry idea (short). Wait for a short signal arrow on the configured rule set and confirm with the bar close. The same close rule applies.
Exit idea. Some traders take partial profit at one R and trail the rest with structure. Some traders trail with structure. Others trail with the indicator itself.
These are concepts, not rules. Then, backtest on your instrument and timeframe before live capital.
