Hey guys,

Skip the boring part below lol – This isn't a rulebook to follow exactly, so take it in, relate if you can, and if not, just hear me out.

This is my first post here, so go easy on me. I promise to add value to this site.

We’ve all been there, right? Digging through endless “holy grail” strategies, hoping something sticks. Well, after 10 years of trading, I think I finally have something worthwhile to share—something simple, effective, and easy to grasp. I’m here to give back to the community that helped me get here.

Introducing the Nova Trading System, my go-to method that’s been quietly working wonders for me. Whether you’re new or seasoned, I believe you’ll find this system refreshingly simple and powerful. No fluff—just practical, actionable stuff.

Forget all the jargon: ICT, bearish/bullish breaker blocks, fair value gaps, order blocks, liquidity, etc. If you just trade the signals as they come, you’ll be fine. But let's keep it clean and easy.

What’s the Nova System All About?

The name's pretty straightforward. Future versions might even be called Super Nova, but let’s see how this goes first.

At its core, the Nova System revolves around precise entry and exit rules using volume strength, market structure, and clean signals. I’ve combined the best parts of different strategies into something that consistently works for me.

It’s adaptable—perfect for any market condition—and it fits my trading style.

But most importantly, you’ve got to make it work for YOU and your trading personality. If you're into volume and market structure, this could be the breakthrough you’re looking for.

Now, let’s talk about my journey: I struggled with the psychological side of trading for years, no matter what system I used. I found myself too emotionally attached to my trades in the early days, which held me back.

It’s taken me about 7 years to get my mindset straight, and I’m finally at a place where I feel 100% confident. So, I’m sharing this system for you guys to critique and improve on.

Currently, the system is available as an indicator on TradingView only.

My Approach:
The key is clean charts, following the trend, and minimal indicators—maybe just one if you really need it. I’m going to break down the Buy and Sell Entry models for you.

If this sounds good so far, feel free to stick around. I’ll post live examples and setups soon. Let me know if you’re interested—I don’t want to waste anyone’s time.

RULES:
I won’t tolerate rudeness or negativity. This is a positive space to learn and share. If anything offends you, I’ll ban you—simple as that. We’re all adults, so let’s act like it.

This system works best if you have at least 2 years of chart experience. If you’re not into it, that’s fine—move along. But if you’re looking for a fresh perspective and willing to put in the work, stick with me.

Also, I won’t be sharing the source code of the indicator. It’s taken me 10 years to find something that works for me, and I’ve seen people take advantage of others’ work. But I’m happy to share the indicator so you can use it—no problem.

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.

Post 2: Indicator and Entry Models

So, here’s the TradingView indicator:

Nova Volume Indicator - TradingView

Add the 50, 100, and 200 EMA to your charts first.

The Buy Entry Model

1. Volume Kick-Off: Start by confirming volume with the Nova Volume Indicator. When you see a strong green bar cross above the 0 line, that’s momentum pushing in the buying direction. But don’t jump in yet—this is just your green light.
2. Check EMA Angle: Now, check the trend with the EMA angle. If the EMA is sloping upward, you're in trend direction. If you're new, look for a slight upward tilt.
3. Entry: Once the volume confirms with 1-2 green histogram bars and the EMA angle is confirmed, enter at the close of the candle (usually the second histogram bar). Simple. Set your stop just below the recent swing low, and aim for a 1:2 risk-to-reward. This isn’t about gambling; it’s about playing the odds.

The Sell Entry Model

1. Volume Confirmation (Bearish): Look for a red bar crossing below 0 on the Nova Volume Indicator—this signals selling pressure.
2. EMA Slope Down: If the EMA is sloping downward, we’re in a downtrend, and the sell signal is valid.
3. Entry: Enter at the close of the candle after volume confirmation. Place your stop above the recent swing high, aiming again for 1:2 risk-to-reward. Let it breathe and ride the momentum.

When the background is BLACK (dark mode) or WHITE (light mode), don’t trade. Wait for it to turn green (bullish) or red (bearish). With experience, you can take the first color change, but it’s subjective based on your style and experience.

The signal line will help keep you on the right side of the market, and you can use a multi-timeframe (MTF) approach: Check the 1-hour signal and drop down to a lower timeframe for entries, targeting that 1:2 profit.

Next post will feature annotated examples from GOLD today—it’s been a great day.

Let me know if this seems like a waste of time, otherwise I’ll keep sharing.
