Smart Indicator Filter Guide

Assign different timeframes to each condition

The Smart Indicator Filter lets you combine supported indicator conditions across different research timeframes — for example trend on 4h and momentum on 1h — then shortlist matching instruments. Not every combination is available for every market.

Key points

  • One shared filter can mix timeframes where supported
  • Not every indicator/market supports every combination
  • Use as a shortlist step before Chart confirmation
  • Pairs well with Market Screener and TAP
  • Write the multi-TF rule in plain language first

Why this matters

Classic filters force one timeframe. Smart filters encode how many discretionary traders already think: higher-TF trend, lower-TF trigger — then automate the scan.

How to use this in your workflow

1. Open Smart Indicator Filter

Start from the crypto smart filter page on TradeAnalyzer.Pro.

2. Assign timeframes

Set each condition to the timeframe that matches your playbook.

3. Validate survivors

Open charts for the shortlist and discard weak structure.

4. Optional TAP

Turn a surviving idea into explicit rules on Chart candles.

Common pitfalls

  • Assuming every TF mix exists
  • Trading the filter output without chart structure
  • Stacking too many conditions until the list is empty noise
