For those who studies Bill Williams' books "New Trading Dimensions" and "Trading Chaos (Second Edition)" and tries trading using these methods, it becomes evident that the standard set of indicators is not sufficient for full-fledged work. The Trading Chaos Map indicator draws the "market map", thus allowing you to the charts the same way as the author of the trilogy.

Parameters provide options for enabling and disabling each signal. You can use any of the methods, or use them in conjunction. You can independently determine the signals to be used, selecting them according to your trading style. The indicator settings also provide the ability to customize the color scheme for displaying the signals.

• Draws the signals of the "Third Wise Man" - fractals, denoting the valid and invalid signals in different colors.
• Indicates the "saucer" and "zero line cross" signals of the AO oscillator.
• Shows the signals of the AC oscillator.
• Signals the "Blue Light Special" for signals from AO and AC.
• Indicates the signals of adding in the Zone.
• Determines the signals of the Balance Line.
• Shows the signals to place the initial stop loss based on 5 consecutive bars of the same color.
• Switches the chart display mode to bars, as the candlestick chart becomes difficult to read.
• Informs about the formation of signals selected bu user.
