WiSE: Filtering Signals — Wizdough Learn

Filters hide signals and symbols by turning them into the Hidden Color. Pick a hidden color that isn't bright, so unqualified symbols don't attract your attention. While testing, it's recommended not to use a transparent color because it may cause confusion.

Direction and count filters

Hide Long Signals / Hide Short Signals — hide long or short entry signals on the chart.
Max count HL/LH — the maximum number of Lower High (LH) or Higher Low (HL) signals per zero entry.
Max count Entries — the maximum number of entries per zero entry.
Hide Inside Bar — hides second entry signals with inside bars.
Hide 0/1 without 2 — hides zero entry and first entry signals without a corresponding second entry.

Scope filters

Apply filters to HL/LH when applicable — treats HL/LH the same as entries when filtering.
Apply filters to Failed/Challenged Entries — controls whether an originally filtered entry stays hidden after it fails or is challenged.

Chart with the WiSE settings panel, purple arrows mapping four filters to example signals — Four filters in action: HL/LH scope, failed/challenged scope, wick size, and the moving average filter.

Bar quality filters

Max High-Close (long) & Close-Low (short) %, 0:off — hides bars that don't meet the specified percentage difference between High and Close (for long) or Close and Low (for short).

Two candlestick diagrams showing a passing and a failing bar for the 30% High-Close filter — With the parameter set to 30, the left bar qualifies for a long entry; the right one is hidden.

Hide Entries by Max Risk (ticks), 0:off — hides bars that exceed the specified maximum risk in ticks.

Diagram comparing 6-tick and 7-tick implied risk from fill price to stop loss — With max risk set to 6, a 6-tick spread from implied fill to implied stop passes; 7 ticks is hidden.

Hide Entries by color — hides the entry if the signal bar is red (for long) or green (for short).
Max towards trade wick size (ticks), -1:off — hides bars whose wick pointing in the trade direction is longer than specified.
Hide Entries by Moving Average — hides the entry if the Close is indented from the MA. Configure the moving average type, input, period, and min/max indent in the MA Filter settings.
