77# The Triad Escalator Forex System

By Dimitri 2024 author N.Delic

The Triad Escalator System is a custom trading approach that combines three powerful indicators working synergistically for precision and optimal results. When applied to your trading chart, the system includes:

Escalator Filter Line: A trend and momentum indicator used to confirm trade direction.
ND Dot Indicator: A momentum indicator displaying colored dots for confirmation.
Escalator Arrow Alert: Signals potential buy or sell opportunities.

The system is effective on any currency pair but is recommended for 15-minute timeframes or higher.
