Quartz Indicator
Optimal Ninja Quartz
What is Quartz?
At the end of 2022, we imagined what the
next-generation
of trading indicators
might look like.
Single-function indicators had been around for decades. Most were not very helpful. And even the best ones really only did one thing. So you always needed to load several on your chart, which meant following multiple plots or colors to make trading decisions. Or even multiple charts. It could be tough work.
Suppose instead, we thought, there was a single indicator capable of analyzing dozens of complex conditions
in the background and telling us the result.
But not just a dumb number-cruncher. Something with an edge. Something that could really help trading decisions.
Now that
would be cool. But that's what a Strategy does, right?
Well, kind of.
What we really wanted was an indicator that blended
the sophistication of an automated strategy with the control of discretionary trading.
A kind of super-class indicator
optimized for the market it was running on.
That was 15 months ago. And that super-class indicator is now Optimal Ninja Quartz.
What does Quartz do?
Quartz is built around a powerful signal-processing engine capable of analysing multiple information-streams including:
- Price action patterns
- Orderflow
- Volume
- Volatility
- Speed-of-tape
- Time-of-day
This data is then weighted according to our most successful trading simulations and when it identifies an exploitable-edge it sends a single color-coded signal to your price bars:
long
or
short
or
stand-aside.
This level of real-time analysis is near-impossible for a human trader and gives you an immense edge in the decision-making process.
What signals does Quartz produce?
All trading with Quartz is built around the 12-tick system using
Optimal Ninja Snap ES Bars. Find out more
here.
Quartz gives momentum signals and fade (countertrend) signals using Smart Trend Finder
and Smart Entry Finder
and is smart enough to try to keep you out of the foolish trades that everyone takes from time-to-time, such as shorting a major uptrend or trying to buy the low of the day.
That isn't to say that all entries Quartz highlights will go in your favor. Of course not -Quartz is based on statistical analysis, not prediction. But experienced traders know the difference between a sound trade that doesn't work out and a bad trade they never should have taken.
So a significant element of Quartz's logic is assigned to filtering out low-probability setups. Bars that are gray-colored
are stand-aside bars, where we recommend not entering.

Risk Disclosure –Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial
investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results.
