Strat Radar is a visual tool to trade "TheStrat" methodology.
TheStrat is a simple yet powerful model to view the market. From one bar to the next, there are only three possible scenarios or three types of candles:
type 1 - an inside bar. Market is in consolidation.
type 2 - a directional bar (2 up or 2 down). Market is trending.
type 3 - an outside bar. This is a broadening formation and market is taking liquidity from both upside and downside.
So by looking at candle type and combination, one can visualize what price is doing in the market.
Strat Radar makes it possible for user to see candle type and sequence for all major time frames – from a 5m bar to a yearly bar - all in one chart! And even better, it allows user to see not just one bar but last three bars!
Certain candle combination creates high probability trade setups, for example 2-1-2 or 2-2 reversals, so by looking at Strat Radar, user can quickly determine whether there are any good trading opportunities. The simple and visual layout makes it easy to go through a watch list and use Strat Radar as a scanner. There is no need to flip through multiple time frame charts.
