Factory TF button grid: M15 H1 H4 lit green, M1 M5 M30 gray
Factory state — the TF bar as shipped lights M15 / H1 / H4
TF button grid moments later: M15 H1 H4 still the same green even after pressing M5/M30
After pressing the M5 and M30 buttons — the state does not change (display buttons, not switches)
— TL;DR

Quick summary

  • Sniper = scalping timing on the timeframes the system picks itself
  • The factory TF bar lights M15 / H1 / H4
  • The TF buttons on the panel are displays — pressing them yourself changes nothing
  • A larger TF = fewer signals and lower risk — good for beginners
— What Sniper is

What Sniper is

WARP chooses the timeframes (Timeframe · TF) it scans for entries on its own. The factory TF bar lights M15 / H1 / H4 — as market conditions change, the system adjusts according to its own volatility criteria.

I tested on a demo account: pressing M5 and M30 on the TF bar — the state did not change · pressing a lit button did not switch it off — confirming that the buttons are system-driven displays, not switches for us to toggle.

— How to read the TF values

How to read the TF values

Read the colors: green = the system is using that TF · gray = not in use · the factory TF bar lighting M15 / H1 / H4 is the fresh-install factory state.

Read it alongside the right-hand panel: LIVE SIGNALS reports the current Trend and Market · MTF TREND summarizes the trend across 7 timeframes — use them when deciding whether to let AUTO keep working or take a break.

System trade numbers: R:R about 3.0 (scalping) down to 2.5 (trend-following) · added positions spaced 50 points (5 pips) apart · no more than 3 positions.

Pro Tip · Mr. Bom

Beginners often want to press the TF buttons to force their own preference. My advice: let the system manage this itself, and control risk through the HIGH/LOW button and the Lot field instead. Leave TF selection to WARP, and test on a demo account first — the risk is real even when the system has picked larger TFs.

— FAQ

FAQ

Which TFs does the factory leave enabled?
The factory TF bar lights M15 / H1 / H4
Can I press the TF buttons myself?
No — the buttons are system-driven displays; I tested pressing them and the state did not change
How is Sniper different from AUTO?
AUTO is the on-off switch for operation · Sniper is the trade timing the system chooses by TF
Which TF is safer?
Larger TFs (H1/H4) give fewer signals and filter harder — well suited to the early stage
Can I change the risk instead of choosing a TF?
Yes — the HIGH/LOW button and the Lot field are what you truly control (chapter 8)
