How to use the Radar Scanner
Step 1 — Keep it on a separate chart or layout
Best practice is:
one chart/layout for Radar Scanner
one chart/layout for REV4
That way the scanner finds opportunity, and REV4 confirms execution.
Step 2 — Watch for state changes
The most important states are:
CHARGE UP / CHARGE DN
These tell you:
a market is preparing
put it on watch
RUN UP / RUN DN
These tell you:
a market may be ready now
open that chart and confirm with REV4
Step 3 — Use alerts
Set alerts on the scanner so when one of the selected symbols goes into:
RUN UP
RUN DN
you get notified and can jump to that chart immediately.
That gives you the “background monitor” effect you were looking for.
Step 4 — Confirm on the chart indicator
When Radar flags a symbol:
switch to that symbol
open the chart with REV4
confirm:
bias
charge
run
sniper / reversal setup
session quality
Do not trade from the scanner alone.
Best workflow for Radar Scanner
Example
Radar shows XAUUSD = RUN UP
You switch to Gold chart
REV4 confirms the move
wait for:
immediate RUN entry, or
better pullback into S LONG
Another example:
Radar shows Brent = CHARGE DN
Put Brent on watch
If it shifts to RUN DN, open Brent chart
Use REV4 to trade continuation or reversal failure cleanly
Best use case
Radar Scanner is best for:
finding the best market to trade
avoiding being stuck on one chart while another market runs
monitoring several instruments at once
catching momentum across metals, oil and indices
Important limitation
Radar Scanner is:
a defined-symbol scanner
not a full global market scanner
It works best with a focused basket of your highest-priority markets.
That is actually an advantage, because it keeps the process clean.
