Talandra TI – NQ Lite

Talandra TI – NQ Lite Edition

Talandra TI – NQ Lite is a technical indicator created for disciplined futures trading on the NASDAQ 100 E-mini and Micro contracts (NQ1!). It is specifically calibrated for the five-minute and one-hour timeframes and is intended for traders who rely on objective directional alignment rather than discretionary signaling. The indicator incorporates a structured confluence of market components, including long-term trend structure through a 120-period simple moving average, momentum validation via short-term exponential and MACD crossovers, volatility screening through ATR-based range logic, and institutional participation assessment using relative volume analysis. All calculations are bound to the active chart price, ensuring the indicator remains visually synchronized with price movement without lag or drift.

The Lite Edition is designed for execution clarity and performance efficiency. By removing labels, commentary, and auxiliary markings, it presents only the essential directional outputs in the form of live BUY and SELL signals. This presentation style supports both discretionary and alert-based trading approaches, while maintaining full non-repainting integrity. Each signal reflects confirmed market alignment rather than early or speculative entry triggers, making the tool appropriate for structured systems, rule-based trading, and algorithmic integration.

Talandra TI – NQ Lite is intended for application on NASDAQ futures exclusively, with performance optimized on the five-minute chart for intraday decision-making and the one-hour chart for macro directional posture. It is not designed for countertrend entry, mean reversion, or adaptation across equity or cryptocurrency markets without modification. The indicator does not include risk management functions; users must provide their own stop-loss, position sizing, and capital control protocols. It is expressly a directional confirmation tool rather than a complete trading system.

This indicator does not provide financial advice or trading recommendations. It is offered purely for educational and informational purposes. Futures and derivatives trading involve significant risk, including the potential for substantial financial loss. No guarantee of accuracy, profitability, or trading performance is expressed or implied. Users accept full responsibility for all trade execution, including risk evaluation and capital exposure.

Talandra TI – NQ Lite is authored by JD Harmelin, with a focus on systematic market structure and momentum-based confirmation logic. The current release is Version 1.0, first published in 2025, representing the initial implementation of price-locked execution logic and macro trend integration. All rights are reserved.
