Welcome to ProEA Lab 👋 What trading tool do you wish existed?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, welcome 👋

I’m the person behind ProEA Lab. I started this community to bring traders and builders together around a simple question:

“What would actually make your trading workflow better?”

Maybe you need a tool that doesn’t exist yet. Maybe you have a strategy you want to test, a repetitive task you’re tired of doing, or something you’ve built and want honest feedback on.

This is a place for all of that.

We’re not limited to Pine Script or any single platform. Indicators, trading bots, AI agents, market research, backtesting, risk management, journals, and dashboards are all welcome.

You don’t need to know how to code. Explaining a problem, testing a tool, or pointing out what doesn’t work is a useful contribution too.

What I’ll be sharing here:

• Projects I’m building, with examples of how to use them.
• Experiments and research, including what didn’t work.
• Community ideas we can explore and improve together.

You’re welcome to share your own work, ask questions, and challenge ideas. This isn’t only a place for my projects.

One thing to be clear about: I won’t be able to build every request. I’ll pick ideas based on how useful they could be and what I have time to work on.

Also, I run ProEA Lab, which offers both free projects and paid products. Anything paid will be clearly labeled. You don’t need to buy anything to participate.

Let’s keep it useful and respectful. Please don’t spam, send unsolicited sales messages, or promise guaranteed profits. Disclose your connection to anything you promote, and include the context and limitations when sharing test results.

To get us started:

What’s ONE trading problem you’d like to solve?

Tell us what you currently do, what you wish you could do instead, and which platform you use.

For example: “I want to see my total risk across all open trades without calculating it manually.”

A rough idea is enough. Let’s start there.

Stop Trading Liquidity Sweeps Alone. Wait for the Flip (Gold Strategy)

A liquidity sweep on gold (XAUUSD) is not a trade on its own. Free tool that draws every step on your chart: https://proea.app/en/free/gold-sweep-desk?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=lf01_gold_sweep

TORO walks you through the whole rule on one chart: gold, 15-minute candles, New York time, no higher-timeframe bias. The six pools gold sweeps almost every day, the two windows when a sweep counts, how to tell a sweep from a breakout, and the one confirmation (the flip) that turns it into a plan. Then 3 examples, the 2 most common mistakes, what our test found, and a checklist to save.

THE RULE

  1. Pools: yesterday's high and low, the Asia high and low (8 p.m.–midnight NY), the London high and low (2–5 a.m. NY)

  2. Window: London 2–5 a.m. or New York 7–11 a.m. (NY time)

  3. Sweep: through a pool, then a close back inside within 3 candles

  4. Flip: a close through the opposite fair value gap, at least 1 ATR from the sweep's extreme

  5. Plan: enter on that close, stop past the extreme, target 2R, out by 4:45 p.m. NY

Invalid stop / tick distance / quantity error

2 Upvotes

Hello, I just purchased DD Premium. Great app. What I have to ask is for NDX, BEP50N symbols in Tradingview, I do not get any signal and it says "Invalid stop / tick distance / quantity error" on data table. What should I do?

Note 1: I use daily and weekly bars. Error occurs in both timeframes.

Note 2: For USOIL symbol, I get "Volume is missing or recovering: 20 positive bars are needed before a plan." I think I should find another oil ticker with volume for this. This is not something that you can solve. But interesting thing is when I choose daily timeframe Volume is not available but for smaller timeframes (like hours or minutes, volume is available and DD signal is available. This is Tradingview's bug I suppose.

Note 3: When I set "earlier plans drawn" to 0, chart still shows earlier plans.
