How Quotex Signal works

No jargon tour—just what happens before you see UP, DOWN, or “flat” on your screen.

1

Multi-timeframe check

First we read the 1-hour chart to see the bigger trend. Then we generate ideas on the shorter timeframe you picked (so they fit how you trade on Quotex).

How the 1H Filter Works

  • SMA Crossover: 50/200 SMA determines bullish or bearish trend
  • Price Position: Price above/below SMA confirms trend direction
  • Alignment Bonus: Signals aligned with 1H trend get +10 strength
  • Counter-Trend Filter: Weakens or blocks signals against strong 1H trend

Trending vs chopping

We use ADX to see if price is marching in a direction or bouncing in a range. That changes how strict we are before calling UP or DOWN.

Trending Market

ADX > 25. Momentum strategies work best. Trade in trend direction.

Ranging Market

ADX < 25. Mean-reversion preferred. Buy oversold, sell overbought.

ADX Calculation

Measures 14-period price movements to determine trend strength. Values above 25 indicate a trending market, below 20 suggest ranging conditions.

Session-aware tuning

London and New York usually move faster; Asia is often calmer. We nudge thresholds so signals match the real rhythm of the day, not a one-size-fits-all rule.

London / New York High Volatility

Momentum strategies work best. Trend following rewarded. Higher accuracy during overlap.

Asian Low Volatility

Mean-reversion preferred. Range trading works better. JPY and AUD pairs may be more active.

Sydney Lowest Volatility

Higher confidence threshold required. Fewer trading opportunities but less noise.

When indicators agree

A signal only appears when several checks line up. The more that agree, the higher the strength % you see on the card.

Technical Indicators Used

RSI Overbought/oversold conditions
Momentum Price velocity measurement
SMA Simple moving average crossovers
ADX Trend strength detection

Signal Strength Calculation

  • • Base score from combined indicators
  • • +10 if aligned with 1H trend
  • • +5-15 session-specific bonus
  • • Counter-trend signals reduced or blocked
