Name : Urban Towers Scalping Strategy by urbanforex
Indicators : Blue MA
Time Frame : 15min
Description : During a trend, when the market retraces to the blue MA with at least 3 consecutive lower highs (3 towers), we enter at the break of the high of the last high. Ok let me explain in details one by one.
Steps to Follow :
Price is above the blue MA trend is up
Price is below the blue MA trend is down
Market retraces towards the blue MA with 3 consecutive lower highs (in a uptrend)
At the break of the high of the last candle, we enter long (in a uptrend)
Trade Example Number 1
Alright, what do we know right off the bat by looking at this. We know the market is in a uptrend because the market is above the blue MA. The market retraced to the blue line with 3 consecutive lower highs (3 towers) as we can see the red candles above. Next, we entered long at the break of the high of the last retracement candle - which in this case is 3rd tower as we can see above. Ok 1 more example for you guys
Ok now here is a example of a no good trade.
Alright, in this example, the market was in a uptrend, it did a 1, 2, 3 tower retrace but it never had a breakout on the high of the 3rd tower, in fact, the market continued down and changed to a down trend. This example is to show that this strategy helps avoid many fake trades.
I hope you like it ! Let me know if you have any questions.
So according to that, for the 2 trades below, you considered the first one conservative because there are 3 lower highs before entry on the 4th bar,… for the second you considered it aggressive but I also see 3 lower highs before entry on the 4th bar…so I’m a little confused
Hi
I looked at the indicator he posted and it uses 6 ema’s from 37-50.
I’m also demoing this one because it kinda fits with what I’ve been doing in the past, and because it gives me a stop loss strategy. I made a live trade with it finally on Friday and it was successful so I feel good about it probability wise.
I made my own indicator that actually marks the candles with a 1,2,3 and includes an alert when price breaks past the high/low of the 3rd candle. I don’t know if I necessarily need the ema’s…a trendline does ok too and I’m also experimenting with an auto drawing linear regression channel.
At the moment I’m at work and the indicator is at home, so could do so later tonight. Actually I thinking of starting my own thread on it because I am using some other indicators too. If I do, it’ll be called the T-Bar-3 method (I think)…gotta give your method a name I’ve heard…lol
