Simple trading systems MA+

I try my best to keep the sl to 100, but sometimes, I might need more than that. I usually don’t have a target tp. I just let it run until the signal reverse. Sometimes, I might get only about 20 - 40 pips and other times, 200+ pips. So far for the month of December, my account was just over 5%. I will wait until the end of the month to comment on January results.
You mentioned about “bulls and bears power 13” that you are using. I am not sure about this. Could you give me some details please? Is this a standard indicator in MT4?

yes they are in mt4 i use them with ema 1 applied first indi data on them. in back test with force index “5” they show good filter results but again it all about the psychology of the trader and good money management this is 85 percent of Forex :wink:
and this one is for different trade style .
Now some fresh idea on your trading sys :
crossings system the 5 average is fast but the 20 is little slow so many signals as i looked back are entered too late . the macd and psar are slow also what you can do with macd is put ema 1 on it it will show you true direction of histogram and can give you direction signals and confirmation . But what i looked as an efficient entry points is 3 indicators momentum force and rsi (all in mt4) set all to “5” (some choppy need to set to 10 )and make middle line in each one of them ( 0- force ,100- momentum , 50- rsi) when all 3 cross the line in same direction is the time to buy or sell , and your ema will confirm or deny that move thats mean that if the ema not show change in direction of your entry after 2 candles better get out as it only temporary move . evenually what you will get is much better entering points, . and i think another good idea is set stable 100-150 pips take as daily trade is changing allot and can jump 150 pips and go down to 30 at the end of day . but it just sharing my idias

Hey Donsis…

Sorry I’m a little late to the party but I just read through this thread and giving this system a try.

As of right now I’m seeing a buy signal on EUR/USD. The 5 EMA crossed above the 20 EMA on the 24th on the daily chart.

Did you not enter this trade because you’re at your support/resistance areas and you’re waiting for it to break through or am I just doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, that’s correct. My SR is @ 1.3712. So waiting until it breaks that. For this pair if you look at the trend since 2013, it is going up. So I am going wait.

New eur usd trade below. Overall trend is up for this currency. hence the sl is 41 pips to minimize the risk.

about eur-usd if it was up to me i would wait it brake and close beyound the s/r of 1.3521 as you can see in the last month it was moving up and down , and slightly upward also you see around 17-23/1 it was stopped by this line also 9/10 also 26/9 4/11 and goes on . so as your previous losing trades you didnt respected this line from the 24 of month .
your aud usd the direction is good trade but i would move the stop looss little bit above 0.8844 if it close above i would worry.

Update
Thanks Dani12 for your suggestions. Much appreciated. The reason I went with this trade was that all my rules met for this, even though the overall trend is up. Still, I agree that this was a high risk trade. And trading is all about reducing the risk. But because the rules were met and PSAR also was in my side, I went with this.
For my luck it has already gone my way by +37 pips. So to cut the risk, I am moving my sl to open and let the trade run.

You have the sr as 1.3521 and I have drawn it @ 1.3558. So in this case, previous day price did close below my sr and opened below too. Maybe my sr is incorrect. Something that I need to look into.

sl moved for usd / cad

from 5 minute graphs your next support point is 1.3474 or 1.3486 interesting if it will brake trough it our just bounce and go up the previous was 1.3482 it touched it and bounced up

So you use 5 min chart to get the SR? I only do it in daily chart.

Hello :slight_smile: just wanted to share with you another strategy wthat uses PSAR as well… I am combining your strategy with this one and am getting good results so thought I would share it with you. And I wanted to ask you that how do you use the MACD or Why do you use the MACD? I’m confused in that.

Please share your method. Looking forward to it.
I personally don’t use MACD, but you can use that as another indicator if you prefer. I try not to use too many indicators.

here is the link :smiley:

I studying the support ristanse how to plot it right with a japanese candle pattern i think evntually it is the way to trade daily . the emas are slow and you hit too much SL. i thinking about upgrade your system to 5-10 emas with s/r because then you enter much earlier and with the right S/R point can take the money in time and the see where it continues . it not easy but possible . for example in 5 minute on london sesion with support resistance it possibly safely to take around 30 + pips daily because every day there is a big one move just need to spot it and jump on it and off course to know where to exit because everything moves fast another idea is to make ema’s channel . but working on it slowly . the eur usd or it will continue to 1.3415 or it will go back to 1.3542 because it is in pretty old point from both sides
