Hi NexusFi family,

I was wondering if anyone knows of an indicator or has programmed an indicator that would show whether it is better to scalp or take swings in the current market condition. I know I have run across a trading system in the past that would showcase whether it is better to scalp or swing but I don't remember the particular trading system. If anyone has ideas, suggestions or inputs to how they determine what the current market is like please share. I think having a visual confirmation would be nice. Sometimes I end up losing all I made to scalping where as when I look back I should have clearly been swinging.

Thank you
Abdus
