### How many license keys do I need?[​](#how-many-license-keys-do-i-need "Direct link to How many license keys do I need?")

**Only one.** A single **Serial Key** unlocks the entire pack across your MT5 terminal. You do not need to manage individual licenses for each indicator.

***

### Do any of the Confluence indicators repaint?[​](#do-any-of-the-confluence-indicators-repaint "Direct link to Do any of the Confluence indicators repaint?")

**No.** Every calculation, signal arrow, box level, and dashboard verdict is calculated strictly on **completed bars (Bar 1)**. Once a candle closes, the signal is permanently fixed. It will never move, recalculate, or disappear.

### What markets and assets can I trade?[​](#what-markets-and-assets-can-i-trade "Direct link to What markets and assets can I trade?")

### Which timeframes work best?[​](#which-timeframes-work-best "Direct link to Which timeframes work best?")

Because price structure and human psychology are fractal, the 5 elements operate consistently across all timeframes:

* **Day Trading & Scalping**: M1 and M5 timeframes.
* **Intraday Trading**: M15 and H1 timeframes.
* **Swing Trading**: H4 and Daily timeframes.

***

### Does the Confluence Pack place trades automatically?[​](#does-the-confluence-pack-place-trades-automatically "Direct link to Does the Confluence Pack place trades automatically?")

No. The Confluence Pack is an objective **decision-support cockpit**. It analyzes the market, qualifies the setup, defines your stop loss and take-profit targets, and provides the clear trade verdict (`BUY`, `SELL`, or `WAIT`). The final execution decision remains with you.

***

### What should I do when the Dashboard shows \[ WAIT ]?[​](#what-should-i-do-when-the-dashboard-shows--wait- "Direct link to What should I do when the Dashboard shows \[ WAIT ]?")

**Do not trade.** The `WAIT` state is your capital preservation shield. When the Dashboard displays `WAIT`, it also tells you why (e.g., *"WAIT: Box not broken"*, *"WAIT: Price overextended"*, *"WAIT: High impact news"*). Wait until the market presents clean, high-probability alignment.

***

### Can I receive alerts on my phone?[​](#can-i-receive-alerts-on-my-phone "Direct link to Can I receive alerts on my phone?")

**Yes.** All indicators in the pack support native MT5 **Mobile Push Notifications**. Enable `Alert_Push` in the indicator settings to receive instant trade alerts directly to your iOS or Android MT5 app.
