The WL SuperFive Trader is a new tool designed by Belgian trader Wim Lievens based on his best-selling WL SuperFive trading system for NanoTrader. It allows traders to easily identify the WL SuperFive trading set-ups from a large group of instruments by using the NanoTrader Screener technology.
The WL SuperFive Trader screens the markets for three proprietary trading set-ups included in the SuperFive system:

Implementing the WL SuperFive Trader
The NanoTrader Full trading platform comes with a powerful screener functionality with which users can screen through hundreds of instruments in order to find potential trading opportunities. Traders usually use screeners to help them choose which instruments deserve their attention most in the current market situation.
In NanoTrader users can either use existing prebuilt screeners or easily create custom screeners by using their own table of instruments and their own search criteria.
The WL SuperFive Trader pack includes 6 ready-to-use screeners. The screeners can be accessed through the NanoTrader WorkspaceBar.
The screeners cover different combinations of instruments and time-frames. Traders can modify these six ready-to-use screeners.
- The “Morning” screeners are for traders, who wish to find trading opportunities from the start of the day. These tables consist of mainly European stocks, of forex pairs, indices and commodities.
- The “Afternoon” screeners are for traders, who wish to find trading opportunities in the afternoon and evening, when the US markets are open. These tables consist of mainly American stocks, of forex pairs, indices and commodities.
Traders can also create their own screeners by selecting their preferred time frame(s), instruments and set-ups.
Real examples
Before we show how simple it is to use these screeners, let's take a look at some concrete trading set-ups identified by the WL SuperFive Trader.

How to use a screener to find trades
1. Right-click on one of the 6 screeners and select “Run” to launch the screener.
2. In the dialogue window confirm click “Start”.
3. If you want to modify the screener (e.g. by adding or removing instruments), right-click on the screener name and select “Edit”.
The Screener Editor window appears, allowing you to edit the list of instruments and/or the study.
4. Click Save to save your changes.
5. After launching a screener, it will take a few minutes until all the calculations are done (mainly depending on the number of instruments). The results are displayed in a new window. The window provides the following important information:
- Sentiment: either a long or short sell trading signal has been detected.
- Trend corrections trades, Trend reversal trades and Momentum trades: a value greater than 0 indicates that a signal has been detected
Logically only one of the three set-ups can have a signal on the same instrument at the same time.
This example shows a buy signal and two short sell signals. The number “0” means that recently no signal was detected for this instrument and for that signal type. The number “1” means a signal was detected in the current bar. The number “2” means a signal was detected in the previous bar. The number “3” means the signal is already older than > 2 bars.
By double-clicking on the instrument a chart will open showing the signal.
This example shows the chart for Incyte Corp for which a trend reversal signal was detected in the previous bar (=number 2 in the table).
