How to use:
Brutal Scalps is like your battle plan, you prepare for facing the markets with tools and insights.
1. Use the Multi TF Trend settings to set up the Trend Table in the top right (default position) panel. This will give you an overview of the oscillators in the selected timeframe. You should always watch a higher timeframe than the one you are using on the chart.
Ex.: If you are charting 15m , use the 1hr setting on the trend panel.

2. The baseline is one of the key factors in signal identification, use this wisely. The baseline consolidation threshold is the sensitivity of the line to stagnating candles. If the market is static and no trades come out , it might be because the threshold is set too high. The default of 3 should be a good fit for most setups. Just bare in mind that the higher the threshold the more candles will be considered as a consolidation area. Higher threshold also means better confirmation but also less trades coming in.

3. Signalling types can and should be used in regards to the current market formation.

Examples:
- If a market is moving in a stairs pattern, a good way to tackle it would be through the breakout signalling type.
- When the market is clearly trending, the use of the trend following type is most suited.
- If you want an all-rounder setup that is a jack of all trades but master of nothing, then the Classic type would be the most suited.

Additionally, if the market is extremely undecided and the above types don't perform that well on their own, the use of Allow Opposite Signal Only can reduce losses by only posting trades that are in the opposite direction, no more consecutive buys or sells.

Set the key levels zones to have extra manual confirmation. These zones are based on order blocks and highlight important liquidity areas. While these don't have any direct impact on the signal recognition, they can help to visually validate them.
