        Is this more suited for scalping, intraday, or swing trading?

            Trend Accelerator Pro is primarily suited for Intraday and Swing Trading. It is not designed to be a scalping tool.

            Here is a breakdown of how it fits different trading styles based on its core mechanics:

            🛑 Why it is NOT for Scalping
            Scalping relies on capturing tiny, rapid price movements within seconds or minutes in choppy or ranging markets. Trend Accelerator Pro is built to do the exact opposite. It looks for a "big impulse candle" breaking a moving average and then uses pyramiding (adding multiple positions as the price moves further into profit). This scaling-in mechanism requires breathing room, volatility, and sustained directional movement, which scalping environments simply do not provide.

            âš¡ Intraday Trading (Highly Suited)
            This is where the bot truly shines if you want active, daily control over your risk and performance.

            Session Filters: You can restrict the bot to only trade during high-volume hours (like the London open or the New York overlap) when clean intraday trends are most likely to form.

            Daily Risk Manager: By utilizing the Max daily profit % and Max daily drawdown % limits, the bot can catch a strong intraday trend, hit your daily goal, and automatically shut down until the next day to protect your profits.

            🌊 Swing Trading (The Power Play)
            If you prefer catching massive, multi-day or multi-week moves, the bot is perfectly equipped to handle the macro structure.

            Higher-Timeframe (HTF) Filter: You can enable the HTF filter (e.g., H4 MA200) to ensure the bot only takes trades that align with the dominant macro trend, filtering out intraday noise.

            The Accelerator Effect: Swing trading provides the long distances required for the bot's pyramiding logic to fully activate. Once a big macro trend starts, the bot will continuously scale into the move and trail the stop loss, safely maximizing the run over several days.

            In summary: If your goal is to catch and ride clean, sustained momentum (whether over a single active session or over a few days), this bot provides the exact framework to do so.For the exact details on the limitations of each specific bot, we're waiting for you on our Discord channel: https://discord.gg/B7VVH9Cq57
