The best system on BabyPips! Stochastic Divergence with rules and examples.

[doriotcapital]

This is my main strategy that I love to trade and is highly profitable when you follow the rules. Please read the charts carefully and if you have questions ask and I would love to answer them!

1. This strategy is not as effective on GBP pairs!
2. Recommended pairs are USD/CAD, EUR/USD, USD/JPY, NZD/USD, AUD/USD, USD/CHF; use only 15,30 or 60 minute time frames! 4 hour may also be used but set ups are very few and far between. NEVER USE ON LESS THAN 15 MINUTES!!!
3. Stop Loss is generally around 20-30 pips.
4. Stop Loss is to be just below (usually a few pips) of VERY recent swing low or just above swing high.
5. Take Profit is up to you but I generally go for 30-100+ pips depending on the set up quality and trend.
6. ONLY enter on Bullish/Bearish engulfing (if you want to play super safe only enter on engulfing candle set ups) or Hammer candle and then break above high of hammer on next candle.
7. NEVER enter if the MACD has not crossed in your direction. This is a filter against bad trades and will save you many times!
8. MAIN RULE. Enter on engulfing candle or hammer, after you see a double bottom or double top and there is a divergence on the stochastic (14,3,3) settings. You might on occassion see a double bottom that goes lower on the retest, and this is even better! The same applies for double top. See examples.

Please place your questions if you have any on this strategy.

Here's a pointer: if you are looking at a sell and the white macd lines have not crossed below the red line (vice versa for a buy) you should not be placing the trade!!! This is added as confirmation and works VERY well.

How are you determining your exits (white lines) on these pics? I understand your exit strategy where you T/P from +30 to +100 pips, but my question is the "white lines". Would you agree that if I were in a trade I wouldn't be able to draw that line anywhere until after the trend reverses?

Oh and whats the success rate like?

spot divergences in back history are outsanding try to catch them in real time.

don´t get me wrong. i trade stochs divergences everydays and they work very well... but it´s not that simple

Looks impressive I look forward to doing some back testing.... Thank you so much for sharing.

ur welcome grantley! I combine this with macd divergences and the use of multiple time frames to pull in about 1000-1500 pips per month.

Hi, Am I right in thinking (if of course MACD and Stoch signal) that on a bullish engulfing candle, you are BUYING and on a Bearish engulfing candle you are SELLING?
