Getting Started

Everything you need to get up and running with the BST system.

Step 1 — Getting Access

After subscribing, you'll receive a confirmation email. Your tools are not automatically added to TradingView — you need to send us your TradingView username first.

  1. Check your inbox for a confirmation email (check spam if you don't see it)
  2. Email your TradingView username to our support address
  3. Access will be granted within 24 hours — usually much faster depending on time zone
  4. You'll receive a confirmation once access has been added

Where to find your TradingView username

Log into TradingView → click your profile icon (top right) → your username is displayed under your name.

⚠ Double-check your username

Make sure you send the correct TradingView username to avoid delays in getting access.

Step 2 — Finding Your Tools on TradingView

Once access has been granted, all three tools will appear in your Invite-Only Scripts folder on TradingView.

  1. Open any chart on TradingView
  2. Click Indicators at the top of the chart
  3. In the search panel, click My scripts then Invite-Only Scripts
  4. You'll see three scripts: Quantum Ribbon Pro, QR Pro Backtester, and QR Pro Scanner

Don't see your scripts?

Try refreshing TradingView or logging out and back in. If they still don't appear after 24 hours of receiving access confirmation, contact us and we'll check the access grant.

Step 3 — The BST Workflow

The system is built around a simple three-step workflow. Follow it in order and you'll always be trading settings that have actually been validated.

B

Backtest

Test your settings on historical data. Find what works before risking real money.

S

Scan

Monitor multiple markets with your validated settings. Never miss a setup.

T

Trade

Execute with confidence. Your settings are tested and your setup is confirmed.

Most traders skip straight to trading. They add an indicator, start taking signals, and wonder why results are inconsistent. BST fixes that — you do the work upfront so every trade is backed by actual data.

Step 4 — Start with the Backtester

Always start here. Before trading live, run the Backtester on your chosen instrument and timeframe to find settings that perform well historically.

  1. Add QR Pro Backtester to a chart of the instrument you want to trade
  2. Open the Strategy Tester tab at the bottom of TradingView
  3. Start with default settings and note the results — win rate, profit factor, drawdown
  4. Adjust one setting at a time: try different stop methods, signal sensitivity levels, and confirmation filters
  5. Once you find settings that perform consistently, write them down — you'll use the same settings across all three tools

What to look for

Aim for at least 50–100 trades in your sample. The Optimization Hints table inside the Backtester will flag specific issues based on your actual results and tell you what to adjust. The Walk-Forward Analysis table will confirm whether your settings hold up on unseen data.

Full backtester documentation including Walk-Forward Analysis and Optimization Hints is in the Backtester Guide →

Step 5 — Trade with QR Pro

You've backtested your settings. Now apply them to the main indicator and start trading.

  1. Add Quantum Ribbon Pro to your chart
  2. Enter the exact same settings you validated in the Backtester — signal sensitivity, stop method, filters, everything
  3. When a signal appears, the chart shows your entry level, stop loss, and take-profit targets automatically
  4. Manage the trade using your configured risk management rules — partial take-profits, break-even automation

Match your settings exactly

If you backtested with TP RSI confirmation enabled and ATR stops at Normal distance, use those same settings in QR Pro. Any mismatch means you're trading settings you haven't actually tested.

Full indicator documentation is in the QR Pro Tutorial →

Step 6 — Scale Up with the Scanner

Once you're comfortable with the core Backtest → Trade workflow, the Scanner lets you expand to multiple markets without manually monitoring each chart.

Add your instruments — BTC, S&P 500, Gold, forex pairs, whatever you trade — to the Scanner with the same settings you've validated. One dashboard shows you the current state across all of them: trend direction, confidence score, active positions, and entry/SL/TP levels.

When a setup triggers on any instrument, you get a single alert. Open that chart with QR Pro and execute.

The BST workflow is Backtest → Scan → Trade, but you don't need to use all three tools from day one. Get comfortable with the Backtester and QR Pro first, then add the Scanner when you're ready to monitor multiple markets simultaneously.

Full scanner documentation is in the Scanner Guide →

The Key: Settings Consistency

This is the most important thing to understand about the BST system.

Your Backtester settings, Scanner settings, and QR Pro settings must match exactly. Same signal sensitivity. Same stop method. Same filters. Same logic.

If you backtest with TP RSI confirmation enabled but trade with it disabled, you're not trading what you tested. The whole point of backtesting is to validate a specific configuration — that configuration only has value if you apply it consistently.

Keep a settings note

Write down your validated configuration somewhere easy to reference. When you add the Scanner or switch to a new chart, check your note and apply the same settings. It takes 30 seconds and eliminates the most common source of inconsistency.
