01

What it does

Reversal Signal Indicator is for spotting swing-style turning points, then checking whether the setup confirms while it is still fresh.

Detect

Watch pivot areas

The indicator tracks recent swing highs and lows using the selected pivot and lookback settings.

Confirm

Wait for price to prove it

The signal needs to confirm inside your configured window, so old pivots do not stay active forever.

Plan

Draw the setup

Draw an arrow first, then optionally draw a NinjaTrader RiskReward tool from your configured template.

02

Core actions

The workflow is simple: wait for the confirmed reversal, set the order where the signal says the pullback should matter, then skip it if price leaves without you.

Signal discipline

The arrow is a trade location, not a chase signal

The signal is meant to define an entry area for a limit order. That matters: if the market reaches the target area before your order fills, the setup is already gone.

Entry point Stop range Target level Sound alert
01 / Confirm

Wait for the reversal mark

Let the pivot and confirmation settings decide whether the turning point is fresh enough to review.

02 / Place

Use a limit order at the signal area

The product logic is built around letting price pull back to the entry instead of forcing a late market order.

03 / Manage

Read stop and target before entry

The RiskReward drawing gives the estimated stop and target structure while the trade is still only a decision.

04 / Skip

Cancel if the market leaves without you

If price runs to the target area before the order triggers, the cleaner trade is usually the next confirmed setup.

03

Set up the signal workflow

Choose the chart rules before the session, then let the indicator handle the repetitive signal and planning marks.

Chart setup

Start with the rules you want the chart to respect

Set the recent signal history, pivot behavior, confirmation window, direction filter, and RiskReward template before you begin watching the market.

01Choose how sensitive the reversal marks should be for the market you trade.
02Decide whether alerts and RiskReward drawings should appear with each valid signal.
03Use the guide when you need the exact NinjaTrader setup steps.
Long

Buy-side reversal mark

Use the long signal as a possible turning area after the pivot confirms.

Short

Sell-side reversal mark

Use the short signal as the start of the plan, then check whether price still offers a clean entry.

Filter

Direction control

Show every signal, use the trend filter, or focus on counter-trend reversal ideas.

Plan

RiskReward drawing

Draw the planned entry, stop, and target from your saved NinjaTrader template.

04

How traders use it

Use Reversal Signal Indicator as a chart-side setup scanner. It does not replace trade judgment or order execution.

Session flow

Reversal first, decision second

The indicator marks the area. You still choose whether the setup fits the market, session, nearby levels, and your risk plan.

Step 1

Load

Add Reversal Signal Indicator to a NinjaTrader 8 chart and choose how much recent history to mark.

Step 2

Tune

Set pivot density, pivot confirmation, and the signal confirmation period for the market you trade.

Step 3

Watch

When the setup confirms, the indicator draws the arrow and can play your selected alert sound.

Step 4

Plan

Use the optional RiskReward drawing to see entry, stop, and target structure directly on the chart.

05

From reversal signal to trade plan

Each block pairs the decision with the chart view: signal first, pullback second, order plan third.

Signal sequence

Spot the turn before planning the order

The signal marks the possible reversal area. Treat it as the place to review the setup, not a reason to chase price after it has already moved.

Entry timing

Let price come back to the level

Wait for the confirmed mark, place the order at the planned pullback area, and let the market come to you.

Order plan

Use the mark to keep the entry specific

The workflow is intentionally plain: signal, limit order, risk view, decision. If price runs away first, leave the setup alone.

Risk view

Check stop and target before entry

The RiskReward drawing keeps the estimated stop and target visible, so the signal is easier to judge before the order is placed.

Pair signals with deeper review

Reversal Signal Indicator helps you find and plan the setup. Trade Analyzer helps you study what happens after the setup.

Review workflow

Use Reversal for entries, then study target behavior

If you are refining a reversal playbook, use Reversal Signal Indicator during the session and Trade Analyzer when you want to compare reward multiples across a batch of trades.

08

Best use cases

Built for discretionary traders who want reversal areas and risk structure marked faster, without turning the chart into a wall of signals.

  • Intraday reversal review

    Use the signal when you are watching for short-term tops, bottoms, pullback turns, or exhaustion areas.

  • Trend-continuation pullbacks

    Set the direction mode to follow the trend when you want reversals that resume the broader move.

  • Counter-trend entries

    Use against-trend mode when your strategy is built around fading extended moves with confirmation.

  • Risk/reward planning

    Use the template-based RiskReward drawing when you want the stop and target structure visible right after the signal.

09

Why this indicator

Reversal Signal Indicator is more useful than a raw arrow tool because confirmation, direction mode, and RiskReward drawing keep the setup tied to a trading plan.

01

The signal is based on pivot behavior and confirmation, not simple candle color.

02

The trend mode lets you decide whether the chart should show trend-side or counter-trend ideas.

03

The RiskReward drawing turns the signal into a planned setup instead of leaving you with a plain arrow.

    When I first integrated this tool into my NinjaTrader 8 setup, I was blown away by the clarity it brought to my tradin. Focus on price action without indicators is exactly what I needed to capitalize on marke movements. I've managed to catch trends at their infancy due to its precise entry signals. However, there's a learning curve to understanding when these signals are truly actionable. Sometimes, it signals a reversal that doesn't materializze, which can be confusing, especially for new traders. With time, though, you start to see the patterns and when to trust its insihts. It's Its definitely made my trading more profitale, but it's its not without its challenges. Learning to use it effectively has been part of my trading education

    I bought this indicator expecting it to transform my trading with, but I've been left somewhat disappointed. While it does highlight potential reversal points, the signals are not as clear or as frequent as I was led to believe. It's Its supposed to provide precise entry signals, but I've found myself second-guessing its recommendations more often than not. Plus, the cost seems steep for what you get, especially when you consider that it doesn't offer much in terms of customization or advanced analysis. It's Its a decent tool but not the game-changer I was hoping for

    The only downside is that it sometimes leads to overtrading, Overall, it's its a significant upgrade to my trading toolkit, especially for those focusing on trend reversals.

    been using the Market Reversal Indicator for NinjaTrader 8 for a few months, and it's its definitely opened my eyes to potential entry points I would've missed. However, there's a catch; sometimes it's its signals come a bit too late, which can mean missing out on the best part of the move. It's Its based on price action, which is great for real-time accuracy, but I've had to learn when to ignore it's its signals in favor of my own analysis. Still, when it's its on point, it's a powerful tool for increasing trade success

    When the indicator does work, the signals are clear and well-defind. However, the delay in signal appearance can be a bit frustraiting, especially if you’re used to quicker trade entries. I understand that the delay is meant to provide additional confirmation, but it sometimes feels like I’m missing out on potential opportunites.

    Despite these chalenges, the risk/reward ratio settings and the emphasis on waiting for the signal has been helpful. I’d recommend this indicator if you’re willing to put in the effort to make sure everything is set up correctly.

  7. Derek Powell Verified owner
    4/5

    it has a bit of a learning curve, the delay in signals is something to get used to, and I had some trouble getting it to work with non-time-based charts.

    5/5

    This tool has quickly become one of my go-to tools. The installation was a breeze; the step-by-step guide was clear and straightforward. I downloaded the file, imported it into NinjaTrader, and had it running within minutes.

    What sets this indicator apart is its precisoin. I've noticed a significnt improvement in my trade accuracy since I started using it. The default risk/reward settings of 1:1 are perfect for my trading strategy, but I love that I can tweak them to fit my needs.

    One thing I particulary appreciate is the advice on waiting for the signal to complete before entering a trade. This has helped me avoid many impulsve trades and improved my overall profitability. The delay in the signal actualy gives me confidence that the reversal is solid, rather than jumping on a false signal.

    The integration of the Reversal Indicator with other technical analysis tools has also been beneficial. By combining it with my usual indicators, I’ve managed to refine my entry and exit points further. Overall, this indicator has exceedd my expectations, recommend it

    This tool offers a great risk/reward ratio and has a high probability of reaching targets. I’ve found it very useful for identifying potential market turning points. The ability to adjust settings like risk/reward ratio and pivot density is a major plus thank you!

    iIndicator works well, but it can be a bit finicky. I had issues with it not showing signals until I ensured I had enough data loaded and used time-based charts. Once configured correctly, it performs as advertised, but the initial setup could use a bit more clarity.

  12. Giacomo Mauro Perticone Verified owner
    5/5

    Thank you. I Recouped the cost in just a few trades! The add-on itself might not be foolproof, but the indicator’s signals have been highly accurate, helping avoid costly mistakes. Pairing it with market expertise can really amplify your results. Basic knowledge of market stage, volume and direction is a must I would say.

    Indicator works as described, but i found that it’s not as helpful for my specific trading style. I prefer fully-automated strategies, and this requires manual trading guided by the signals. That said, if you’re into manual trading, it’s a solid tool, but it’s not a perfect fit for everyone.

    I spent about a week trying to figure out how to use the Reversal Indicator properly. The signals were okay, but I struggled with market entries. Luckily, Max from the support team was a huge help, guiding me through the process. While I’m not entirely satisfied with the results so far, the customer service is top-notch.

    I’ve been using the Reversal Indicator for several months, and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s easy to understand, even for someone like me who is relatively new to trading. The indicator consistently gives accurate signals, which helped me avoid bad trades (impressed with that). The support team is fantastic-quick to resolve any questions. Highly recommend
