What it does for your trading

Stop collecting indicators and keep the few that actually work

Judge your indicators the way the research does, and three things change for the better.

◎

Stop bleeding money on indicators that fight you

Some of the most popular indicators in trading - the ones taught in every course and switched on by default on every platform - quietly make breakout strategies worse. Tested across thousands of strategies, the data is blunt about which ones to pull off your charts, and how much they've been costing you to keep them there.

✓

Keep only the few filters that actually move the needle

Out of 100 indicators put through the same brutal test, only a handful genuinely earned their place - and the single best was almost embarrassingly simple. You'll know exactly which few belong on your charts, why they win, and why most of the rest are just noise dressed up as signal.

↑

Trust the edge you trade, because it survived unseen data

Every indicator here had to clear one hard bar: help across thousands of strategies, on data it had never seen, and lift every metric at once, not just profit. No cherry-picked chart. No pretty backtest. So the few that make the cut are the few you can actually rely on when real money is on the line.

Yes, this is for you

You can do this even if you've tried indicators before and ended up with mixed results

✓

...you've tried indicators and got mixed results. That's what happens when you judge a tool one backtest at a time. Here, every indicator was scored across more than 4,100 strategies on data it had never seen - so you finally know which ones actually help.

✓

...you already use indicators every day. You'll learn which to keep, which to bin, and hedge-fund ways to read the winners that go well beyond the textbook - fresh angles to sharpen the strategies you already trade.

✓

...you're not a programmer. Every code snippet comes with a ready-to-paste AI prompt that converts it to your platform - Pine Script, NinjaScript, MQL or Python - in seconds.

This is my story

Why I stopped arguing about indicators and finally tested them

Almost every trader I've ever met has the same instinct when a strategy isn't working: add another indicator. Add an RSI. Add a stochastic. Stack three of them and surely one will catch the bad trades the others miss.

The instinct

Pile more indicators onto a struggling strategy and hope one catches the bad trades. You end up with a chart full of conflicting signals and a backtest curve-fit to noise.

vs
The fix

Keep only the handful of filters proven to help across thousands of strategies, on data they'd never seen. A cleaner chart, fewer false signals, an edge that holds up live.

So this year I did the thing nobody seems to do. Instead of arguing about indicators, I tested them. Properly - 100 conditions across more than 4,100 breakout strategies, on two markets, each split into data the strategies had seen and data they never had. The result was humbling:

Most indicators are noise. A few are gold. And some of the most popular tools actively make your results worse.

So I've done something most people in this industry won't: I've shared the real stuff. Which indicators earn their place, the actual settings I use, and the one method that separates a genuine edge from a pretty backtest. The same research I run on live capital.

It's 11 plays, start to finish, for $10. My goal is simple - I want you to finish it and think, "I can't believe I got all this for ten bucks." And then you apply it, and it makes you $1,000s.

A look inside

The 11 plays, start to finish

Each play is a self-contained, named method - run one on its own, or stack the few that fit your trading into a complete system.

  1. 1

    The Uplift Index

    The one score that tells a real edge from a pretty backtest - and why every indicator in the book had to clear it.

  2. 2

    The Oscillator Trap

    The most popular tools in retail trading, and why the data says they're quietly costing you money on every breakout.

  3. 3

    The Volatility Workhorse

    The single best indicator out of all 100 was almost embarrassingly simple. If you add only one filter ever, make it this.

  4. 4

    The MA Slope Signal

    The one filter that was positive in every test I ran - but only once you stop asking the question almost everyone asks.

  5. 5

    The Trend-Strength Gate

    The most argued-about indicator in trading does work - just not the way many traders use it.

  6. 6

    The Directional Twist

    ADX's overlooked sibling, read with a twist almost nobody applies, becomes a second breakout engine entirely.

  7. 7

    The Smart-Money Filter

    The number-two indicator out of all 100, and the rare one that lifted every metric at once. Most traders have never used it like this.

  8. 8

    The Monthly Tide

    A proprietary indicator I built to identify the market tides, with no optimizable parameters to overfit. Six lines that tell you when longs have the wind behind them.

  9. 9

    The Monthly Pulse

    An oscillator that actually works for breakouts - because it breaks every rule the failed ones follow.

  10. 10

    The AI Co-Pilot

    What happened when I handed my best strategy to an AI, and the two warnings worth more than the setting it found.

  11. 11

    The Foundation-First Method

    The most expensive habit in retail trading, and the method that replaces it for good.

About the creator

Meet the trader behind the playbook

Tomas Nesnidal

Tomas Nesnidal

"Mr. Breakouts" · Hedge-fund manager · Creator of BreakoutOS

I'm a full-time trader, and I specialize exclusively in breakouts. I co-founded Breakout Trading Academy and created BreakoutOS, and back in 2017 I launched my own algorithmic hedge fund built entirely around breakout trading. Today I run a portfolio of close to 2,500 strategies across global futures markets.

My work has been featured in Stocks & Commodities, Traders' Magazine, Interactive Brokers, Futures Truth, and dozens of trading publications worldwide. Everything in this playbook comes from that same hedge-fund research - the real settings, the real testing process, and the real indicators I run on live capital every day.

Got a question?

Common questions

I already use indicators and they seem to be working. Why is this different?

Because "seems to be working" and "proven to work" are two very different things. An indicator can look great on your charts and still be adding nothing, or even working against you, and a single backtest will never tell you which. Every indicator in this playbook was scored across more than 4,100 breakout strategies, on data it had never seen, and judged on every metric at once, not just profit. So you find out which of your indicators are genuinely earning their place, which to drop, and which popular ones are costing you - backed by data, not opinion.

Which markets does this work for?

All of them. I trade futures, so my examples use those, but the principles work just the same on stocks, forex, crypto and CFDs.

Which trading platforms does this work for?

Any platform you like. The code examples are written in EasyLanguage, which runs on TradeStation and MultiCharts. But every snippet also comes with a ready-to-paste AI prompt that converts it to whatever platform or trading language you need - Pine Script, NinjaScript, MQL, Python, and more.

I'm not a coder. Can I still use it?

Yes. The code snippets are in EasyLanguage and pseudocode, and each one comes with a ready-to-paste AI prompt that converts it to your platform - Pine Script, NinjaScript, MQL or Python - in seconds.

What exactly do I get, and how?

Instant digital access to the full 11-play playbook in two formats (an interactive online edition and a downloadable PDF), plus the two bonuses. Everything is delivered electronically, by email, the moment you order.

What if it's not for me?

Then you pay nothing. It's covered by my 60-day "Try Every Play" Guarantee: get the playbook, run through the plays, and if not even one of them earns its place in your trading toolkit, email me and I'll refund every cent. No forms, no hoops, no hard feelings. For 60 days, the risk is mine, not yours.
