These files store specific input parameter configurations for our indicators, allowing traders to quickly switch between different trading styles (e.g., Scalping vs. Swing) or restore default settings. + +## Naming Convention + +The naming structure is designed to be intuitive, grouping presets first by the indicator they belong to, and then by their intended purpose. + +`[IndicatorName].[Strategy].[Detail].set` + +### 1. `[IndicatorName]` + +The base name of the indicator. This ensures that presets are automatically grouped together in the file explorer. + +* `Laguerre_ACS` +* `MACD_Pro` +* `TSI_Pro` +* `Cyber_Cycle` + +### 2. `[Strategy]` + +The primary trading style or configuration category. + +* **`default`**: The standard, recommended starting parameters (often Ehlers' defaults). +* **`scalp`**: Tuned for high sensitivity and fast reaction (e.g., lower periods, lower gamma). +* **`swing`** / **`trend`**: Tuned for smoothness and noise reduction (e.g., higher periods, higher gamma). +* **`ha`**: Specifically configured for use with Heikin Ashi price sources (e.g., may use different thresholds). + +### 3. `[Detail]` (Optional) + +Specific technical details that distinguish this preset from others in the same strategy. + +* `fast`, `slow` +* `dema`, `tema` (if using specific MA types) +* `gamma02`, `gamma08` +* `conservative`, `aggressive` + +## Examples + +### Laguerre Family + +| Filename | Description | +| :--- | :--- | +| **`Laguerre_ACS.default.set`** | Standard adaptive settings. | +| **`Laguerre_Filter.scalp.gamma02.set`** | Very fast filter (Gamma 0.2) for M1/M5 scalping. | +| **`Laguerre_RSI.swing.smooth.set`** | Smoother RSI (Gamma 0.8) for H4/D1 trend trading. | + +### MACD Pro Family + +| Filename | Description | +| :--- | :--- | +| **`MACD_Pro.default.set`** | Classic 12, 26, 9 EMA settings. | +| **`MACD_Pro.scalp.dema.set`** | Uses DEMA (Double EMA) for all lines to reduce lag significantly. | +| **`MACD_Pro.trend.tema.set`** | Uses TEMA (Triple EMA) for ultra-smooth trend following. | + +### TSI Family + +| Filename | Description | +| :--- | :--- | +| **`TSI_Pro.default.set`** | Classic 25, 13, 13 EMA settings. | +| **`TSI_Pro.ha.smooth.set`** | Configured for Heikin Ashi source with slightly longer periods. | + +## Usage + +1. Open the **Indicator Properties** window (double-click the indicator on the chart). +2. Go to the **Inputs** tab. +3. Click the **Load** button. +4. Navigate to the `Presets` folder and select the desired `.set` file.
