Summary: Successful traders distinguish potential price moves that are random happenings from price moves that can be forecasted with a high probability. The science or art is in detecting signals and staying away from Noise.
More than 85% of all financial market transactions are institutional decision-based. Therefore, big money decides the direction and if a price-movement-initiation spotted is followed or countered. Hence, the market creates signal patterns that are detectable and predictable with a high probability. As a high probability situation, we specify a 65% or above predictability of the happenings to continue in the forecasted price direction.
Let us take a signal transmission model: Filtering technology helps to detect the signal and filter out Noise. Even when a signal is distorted, models like the Hamming Distance help to identify the underlying movement and fill in what is missing to forecast the content to a specified target.
At this point, it might sound abstract; however, it builds a crucial part of our algorithmic trading systems with an AI component. For programming such a system, you first describe the natural happening, and such, we formulate some of the observations to take:
- How do financial market transactions take place?
- Who are the decision-makers, and what is the basis of their decisions?
- How and when do price moves start and end?
Next is to find a mathematical model to replicate the actual market happening. Let me give you some examples:
- We are assuming a Markov-Chain-Happening: forecastable action in a predictable frame of activities instead of considering a Finetti relation of a random happening.
- Mandelbrot iterations help us to consider the action of now: The result of each market action is used as the starting value for the next iteration. The values are checked during each iteration to see whether they have reached a critical “trade” condition or “bailout.” If a trade condition is found, the calculation is stopped, and a potential signal is drawn on the chart, spelling out the next price value to be reached and the statistical volatility to get to the examined target value without a high likelihood of getting stopped.
- Filtering technology to express higher over lower likelihood happenings
- Price expansion calculation and stop, considering the actual statistical volatility of the happening.
What we explain above and more happens in the background, and we wanted to invite you into our thinking. However, you do not need to understand and learn all this. Still, we wanted to express that simple moving average calculations, or similar iterations will never be able to provide high probability trade setups. So we calculated the difference between a model with a 55% probability to one of 65% and estimated the expected win rate of 10 trades by a Bernoulli experiment to win six or more trades out of ten. We explained how to put together an experiment with marbles, but let us take a shortcut here:
- A 65% system gives you a 75% chance to predict and win six or more out of ten trades.
- A 55% only gives you a 50.4% chance for six or more winners (random predictability).
You know now why we propagate high over low probability for retail traders.
We offer several systems: TradeColors.com is our beginner system and is included in all other systems. In this publication, we like to share a combination of NLT Top-Line, Trend Catching, and NLT Timeless Indications.
NLT Top-Line has multiple price charts and lower study indicators for trading at crucial price turning points:
- Strong Price Turning Points: NLT Power Towers stand tall and point a direction (blue and red, buy> and sell<)
- Tops and Bottoms: NLT Early Buy or Sell, pointing out more considerable directional price moves (orange buy>, sell<)
- End of Purple Zone. We color up-moves in blue and down moves in red; when a time of ambiguity in price direction (purple buy> and sell <).
- Strong money in our outflow, showing institutional engagement (lower study)
- Correlated or uncorrelated to the overall market move (lower study)
- Historical price projection to understand what others expect (upper and lower study)
- and more
NLT Trend Catching differentiates
- Trend Initiation Signals (gray buy > and sell <)
- Trend Continuation Signals (gray Buy_C and Sell_C)
- Balance of Power: Buyers or sellers in Charge (lower study)
Why combine those systems?
For a higher participation rate: more trades and accuracy with indicators that take a different market cut by not being correlated.
NLT Timeless Day Trading Examples /ES
The chart works with price-based candles, not time-based. During the day session, three trading opportunities were highlighted, and all reached their target.
For day trading, we always operate with bracket buy-stop or sell-stop orders. The order is only filled when a pre-defined price level is reached and automatically stops and targets in place.
In our trading chart, we also consider price-volume happenings, and the colors on the volume bar tell a story of higher-level engagement on highlighted bars. The price-volume study is part of NLT Top-Line, and we run a yearend special for the system combination, which we are happy to share with you in a demo.

Following specific rules in trading is essential, leaving only very little room for discretionary decisions. Very little interpretation:
Trade What You See!
Let the chart tell when to buy or sell!
By the way, the brand name NeverLossTrading does not promise never to lose a trade; it derives from the concept of trade repair and Never Stop Loss Trading was a bit lengthy.
The following example shows an NLT Timeless Swing Trading example:
NeverLossTrading Timeless Swing Trading Chart
The chart shows NLT trade indications between July 25 and August 3, 2022, describing four situations we now explain:
Situation-1: After directional price ambiguity, the NLT Top-Line End of Purple Zone signal and the NLT Trend Catching Sell signal pointed down, and the trade direction was confirmed and came to target by reaching the gray dot on the chart.
Situation-2: A bottom was found, the buy signal confirmed, and an upside trade was initiated. The first target was at the gray dot. If you want to trail your transaction, use the red line of the blue frame and exit at the black dot or 3-SPU level.
Situation-3: A trend-continuation signal after a short retracement and another uprun to target or to be trailed with the red line the black dot: 2-SPU level.
Situation-4: on August 1, 2022, an NLT Purple zone opened and told us not to initiate swing trades until it was over.
After the NLT Timeless examples, let us dive into time-based trading: We use the same indicators and pull up a price chart for Apple Corp. (AAPL) from June 8 to August 3, 2022.
Do you see four or potentially five trading opportunities (one short – sell signal in red – and three long opportunities – buy signals in gray and red)?
If yes, you understand what we mean by letting the chart tell when to buy or sell; if not, challenge us for a free demo:
