A forex signal looks simple — just a few numbers — but every field has precise meaning. Misreading even one field can turn a profitable setup into a loss.
Pair and direction
The pair (e.g. EURUSD) tells you which currency you're trading. The direction — BUY or SELL — tells you whether the provider expects the price to rise (BUY) or fall (SELL).
Entry zone
Most signals give an entry range: entryMin to entryMax. You should only open a trade if the current price is within this zone. Chasing a signal outside the zone almost always leads to a worse risk/reward ratio.
Stop-loss (SL)
The SL is the price at which you cut the trade for a loss. Never move your SL in the wrong direction — it's the only protection you have if the market moves against you.
Take-profit targets (TP1, TP2, TP3)
Free signals include TP1. VIP unlocks TP2 and TP3 for a staged exit strategy. Many traders close 50% at TP1 and let the rest run to TP2/TP3.
Timeframe
The timeframe (M15, H1, H4, D1, etc.) tells you the chart context the signal was based on. An H4 signal may take 2–3 days to play out; an M15 signal might be done in hours.
