So most trading teachers will show you a similar picture in their courses. It is all you
need to know about price movement. They would tell you price is either trending or
ranging. You can only trade profitably when its trending.
Then they show this picture to explain the trend; an up move (impulse move), which
retraces to a higher-low then creates a new, higher-high and so on. Every trading
system existed plays on a variation of this picture.
A support-resistance mentor would say the first high is resistance, so trade a break of
that resistance. Or trade a bounce of that support. So you try that but it doesn't nearly
work; you can never work out where the exact resistance or support are. Additionally,
sometimes support or resistance fail causing you massive losses. So you look for another
method.
So you meet another mentor and he tells you about RSI. He would tell you when price
makes a higher-higher but RSI doesn't, you should sell as this is a sign of reversal.
Besides the fact this is plain wrong and that divergences don't foreshadow a reversal
(they actually confirm the trend). RSI divergences don't tell you when to exit. Actually
most of the time the divergence is completely neglected and price continues to move in
the same direction. So you move on to try trendlines, fibonacci, bollinger bands,
harmonic pattern or moving averages. Nothing ever works consistently.
So they tell you trading is hard and its money management is all that matters. Well yes
money management is very, very important. But those mentors also know nothing and
they teach you bits and parts, a half-truth. That's why their systems don't work out.
I will show you a trend following system that works. And its not a breakout system, my
trend following is much more accurate. All you need is a 20 Exponential moving average,
50 exponential moving average and a stochastic oscillator.

In this post I will share the system's rules and then post an example in a following post.
I want to point out that the picture I shared in the opening post is an important one;
price does trend in that way. Its just that mentors have never helped us trade that
movement properly. This is what this system will do.
Entry
Step 1: Plot the 20 Exponential moving average (ema), the 50 ema and the stochastic
oscillator.
Step 2: Wait for the 20 ema to cross over or below the 50 ema. Now any moving
average system tells you when (the 20 crosses above 50 goes long. when 20 crosses
below 50 go short.) THIS IS WRONG! The 20 ema crossing above the 50 ema
indicates a very strong upward move that is about to correct soon.
The 20 ema crossing below the 50 ema indicats a strong bearish move that is about to
retrace. So how do we know when does the retracement end and when will it continue?
This is where the stochastic kicks in.
Step 3: If the 20 ema crossed above the 50, the stochastic will be OVERBOUGHT
(indicating that a fall in price is near. If 20 ema crosses below the 50 ema, the stochastic
will be oversold. This is the pattern I'm sharing with you; stochastic will be overbought
with an upward cross over and vice versa on all trading instruments on all higher
timeframes.
Step 4: Keep a close eye on stochastic, wait for it to go all the way to the other extreme.
Place your entry when stochastic crosses over in the other direction.
ex: 20 ema crosses above 50 ema. Stochastic will be overbought (80+). Wait for
stochastic to become oversold. When stochastic crosses up at oversold, by the next
candle open.
It may sound confusing, but bear with me and things will become clearer in the example.
All we did is traded the picture I shared in the first post. Price went from a low point to a
high point (so 20 ema crossed above 50 ema.) price then retraced (stochastic went from
overbought to oversold.) We entered when stochastic crossed over from oversold
because we anticipate that price will go on to make a higher now. This is the most
profitable trading pattern you will encounter.
Exit
I use trailing stops. Once we enter. I draw a fibonacci extension from the low point to
the high point if its a buy signal or from the high to the low if its a sell signal. I use the
following levels: 1, 1.272, 1.618, 2, 2.618, 3, 3.618, 4, 4.618, 5... and so on.
When price closes above 1, I move stops to break even. When it closes above 1.272, my
stop becomes a close below 1. Then when it closes above 1.618, my stop is a close
below 1.272. A close above 2, sees me moving my stop to a close below 1.618 and so
on.
I doubt anyone tried shorting USDJPY this year. But the system clearly shows you a
short opportunity that yielded 250 pips in five days (fundamentally, this is a counter-
trend trade.) Most analysts told you it was ranging early on (by the way a buy signal in
USDJPY just flashed on Friday.)
In the picture, you notice the yellow line (20 ema) crossing the blue line (50 ema). We
now establish that the trend is bearish, USDJPY should make at least one lower low.
At that time, the first circle at the bottom, stochastic was indeed oversold. This
confirmed to us that we are about to see a retracement. We kept following the stochastic
until it got overbought, that told us that the retracement is almost over and now we will
go on to make our anticipated lower low. We entered as soon as the stochastic crossed
over to the downside (the second yellow circle). This happened to be at the closing of
the shooting star formation on the chart, marked with the green arrow and the red
horizontal line.
Once we entered. We now have our high point (that is the highest point immediately
before the crossing of the moving averages) and a low point (the lowest point before the
retracement.)
We plot a fibonacci extension from the high to the low. As soon as price closed below the
fibonacci 1 level, we moved the stop to break even. It proceeded to close below the
1.272. We moved our stop to a close above the 1 level and so on.
You see price moved below 1.618, then moved up to close above the 1.272 (the second
green arrow) this is where you would close the trade.
The risk on that trade was 99.7, the reward was 205 pips. So try the system out. Next I
will share a trade that I'm still in and a trade that didn't work out.

nppetkov, bioshock, Mike Wolski and 1 others like this.
See this is a long trade that I'm currently in. It is basically the same set up but this time
its a buy rather than a sell. Notice that the price has closed above fibonacci level 3, so
now my exit is a close below 2.618.
I risked a total of 288.3 pips on this trade, my return will be (so far) slightly less than
1060 pips.
Next I will show what to do when the pattern fails (hint, sometimes you still end up
making a profit!)

Yeah, the stochastic hook trigger is a pretty solid set up for sure. It's actually been
around for years & was first presented on Babypips a few years back by a poster named
Carll on the Technical Templates Continued thread in its rawest form, minus the moving
average & fibonacci add ons.
He & a couple others are still trading it very successfully across multiple timeframes,
including sub hourly. His entry trigger has been referred to on Captain Currency's 3
Ducks thread on a few occasions as a very reliable alternative entry trigger to
complement the trending structure of that approach.

@Shuo: There is no shift to the EMA. Its applied to the close. For stop-loss, I use mental
stops because its more comfortable that way. Those who like to place stops 10 pips
above the high if its a sell and 10 pips below the low if I'm buying. So in the USDJPY sell
signal I posted a picture of above, I'd place the initial stop loss 10 pips above the area I
labeled "high point." Something I wanted to stress to you; the distance between the
entry and the stop loss is always worth 1% of my equity on 4HR, daily and weekly
charts. If I'm in the mood for over trading and use the 1hr or 5 minute charts, my stop
loss is only 0.2% of my balance. I use the baby pips position size calculator to know my
lot size.
@Odds on: I agree with you that stochastic is one of the best entry indicators any trader
will ever use. My strategy actually started as a moving average cross over system. But I
started noticing that price moved against my entry quite powerfully before storming in
my favor. I started to experiment with other indicators in search for a work around the
retracement problem and I came across that pattern; whenever the 20 EMA and 50 EMA
crossover, stochastic will be on the other side of the crossover. It only happens with the
20 and 50 ema, it was almost magical.
The Fib addition is really my legacy to trend following systems hahaha. I think I'm the
first trend follower who buys the dip rather than the break out. But I also think my
system offers a much more accurate exit strategy than almost every other system.
Before introducing fibs I used to give up an average of 40% of my gains. Now I enter
very early and leave out only 5-10% of my gains.
Tomorrow I will share two trades that didn't work out, this is where the pattern gets
really powerful.

Strategi Forex 200 SMA dan 5 EMA
Jul 012013
Stretegi forex menggunakan beberapa time frame akan memungkinkan untuk meningkatkan
peluang mendapatkan keuntungan dari pasar forex. Strategi forex 200 SMA terdiri dari 3 time frame
yang berbeda yaitu 4 jam, 1 jam dan 15 menit. Dalam strategi khusus ini, baik grafik 4 jam dan grafik
1 jam digunakan untuk melihat trend secara keseluruhan di pasar. Grafik 15 menit digunakan untuk
menentukan saat yang tepat untuk masuk dan keluar pasar serta menentukan stop loss. Setelah
anda sudah melihat ketiga grafik forex pada time frame tersebut maka anda baru bisa masuk ke
dalam pasar forex dengan menggunakan strategi forex yang akan dibahas dibawah ini.
Pengaturan Trading :
Trend beli: Ketika garis 5 EMA memotong garis 200 SMA dari bawah ke atas
Trend jual: Ketika garis 5 EMA memotong garis 200 SMA dari atas ke bawah
Buy jika 5 EMA memotong 200 SMA dari bawah ke atas pada grafik 15 menit.
Pasang stop loss 1 pips lebih rendah dari titik support terbaru
Pasang target profit sekitar 50 pips atau sesuai dengan target anda. Usahakan target profit
lebih besar daripada stop loss.
3. Syarat untuk Sell
Sell ketika garis 5 EMA memotong garis 200 SMA dari atas ke bawah pada grafik 15 menit
Pasang stop loss 1 pips lebih tinggi dari titik resistance terbaru
Pasang target profit sekitar 50 pips atau sesuai dengan target anda. Usahakan target profit
lebih besar daripada stop loss.
Perhatikan pada gambar dibawah ini yang akan memberikan contoh singkat untuk lebih
memahami strategi forex SMA 200.
Grafik 1 jam: Pada tanggal 22 November, Euro / Dollar dalam Trend Jual
Grafik 15 menit: Pada tanggal 26 November, Euro/Dollar masuk posisi Jual
Pada tanggal 26 November, 5 EMA memotong 200 SMA dari atas ke bawah pada grafik 15 menit.
Akibatnya, Euro/Dolar telah memberikan sinyal jual dan itu diperkuat dengan grafik 4 jam dan grafik
1 jam yang mengindikasikan trend jual. Kita buka posisi sell di pasar pada penutupan bar di 1.3338.
Stop loss awal ditempatkan 1 pip diatas level resistance terbaru di 1,3385. Risiko kerugian: 47 pips.
Target profit adalah dua kali lipat dari risiko (94 pips) atau paling kecil 50 pips.
Talking Points:
The MACD and Signal line crossover gives traditional buy/sell signals.
Histogram is the difference between the MACD and Signal line.
We can enter when Histogram begins to get smaller rather than wait for a
cross.
Most technical traders have experience using the more popular oscillators, RSI, CCI, and MACD,
etc. But many traders Ive taught are not aware of the alternative way to use the MACD. In this
article we will discuss how to use MACDs histogram to open trades and show how in many cases
we can get a quicker entry than the traditional MACD method.
What Does the Histogram Represent?
The green histogram or bar chart included in the background of the MACD displays the difference
between the MACD and Signal line. When the MACD is above the Signal line, the bar is positive.
When the MACD is below the Signal line, the bar is negative. The actual height of the bar is the
difference between the MACD and signal line itself.
Learn Forex: MACDs Histogram Construction
The chart above shows what the Histogram represents. The first label shows how the MACD is
higher than the Signal line. This creates a positive green bar that has a height equal to the
difference of the two lines. The second example the MACD is below the Signal line. This creates a
negative green bar that has a height equal to the difference between the two lines. We can also
see that when the Blue and Red lines cross, the histogram flips from one side to the other.
MACD Indicator
2) CCI Indicator- As for the CCI, I will usually use the 200 mark as a sign of reversal. When the price crosses
above the 200 level, I will wait for it to move back down to the 100 level before I enter a reversal trade.
If it goes below the -200 mark, I will wait for it to move up to the -100 mark before I enter a trade.
CCI Indicator
Besides the above 2 indicators, I also make use of some candlestick patterns to help me in the identification of
possible reversal.
1) Spinning Top The spinning top is made up of a short body with long wick at the top and bottom. This is
usually a sign of indecision among the buyers and sellers.
If it occurs at the end of a strong trend, it is usually a sign of possible reversal.
SpinningTop
2) Railway Track I have written a post on this railway track candlestick pattern and you can read it here. The
railway track is a sign of traders getting into the wrong position and the 2 long opposite candles are formed as
traders quickly exit their wrong position and enter the opposite side.
RailwayTrack
If you happen to see the indicators showing the same reversal signal together with the formation of any reversal
candlestick patterns, this will greatly increase the chance of the price making a reversal.
If you have any recommendation for reversal indicators, do feel free to comment below as your input will be very
useful for everyone here
Today I want to share my "Stupid Guy" Trading System that can make pips up to 50-100 pip a day!
^_^
Lets go!
Pair = EUR/USD only
Time Frame : 15 Minute Only
Zoom out to 50 or 75 percent to see the magic.
And the secret is... MACD!
Set it to 35 45 30.
The Rule is, ENTRY WHEN CROSSING. ITS so simple!! Check the picture below!
Patient is the key, and you may sometimes checkout the Histogram Divergence to spot next cross.
Don't forget to set trailing stop (SL+), Avoid News, Cut Loss when MACD cross again (almost never
happen)
Happy Stupid Trading ^_^ See you at the top!
Stocks never move up or down in a straight line, and there is plenty of money to be made short term
trends within a longer term trend. The secret to making money from actively trading a stock is
spotting these price trends.
Fortunately there are many ways of selecting the stocks to trade, and then the prices at which to buy
and sell shares. As an active trader, its likely you will rely heavily on technical analysis, looking at
charts and price patterns to confirm the levels at which to trade in and out of a stock.
Within this area of technical analysis there are numerous indicators of price movement that traders
look to, but one of the most popular is the MACD.
Like most other technical analysis methods, when you use the MACD (which stands for the Moving
Average Convergence Divergence) you are examining historical price data and looking for patterns of
trend that are repeated. First developed in the 1970s, it wasnt until the 1980s that its use really
took off.
And this popularity came about because of the addition of a histogram which makes it one of the
most easily read visual indicators available in todays market.
To be able to use the MACD, you firstly need to know what its three components are, and how they
are combined to construct the MACD.
As the name suggests, the MACD uses moving averages as its basis of price analysis. These moving
averages need to be exponential moving averages, which sounds a mouthful but are actually easy to
calculate, though time consuming.
Using a set number of historical days price data, you would calculate each days moving average in
relation to the number of days data up to that point and then plot the results on a graph.
If this sounds like too much hard work, or still a little complicated, theres no need to worry: most
trading systems will calculate the emas for you, and then create the graph and histogram from
which you will note the changing price trend. You can also draw MACD graphs using websites such as
Yahoo finance.
The first of these is the short time exponential moving average, known as the faster ema. The most
common time period for this ema is 12 days.
The second component is the longer time exponential moving average: the slower ema. The most
common time period for this line is 26 days.
The MACD line itself is drawn by calculating the difference between the faster and slower emas.
The final component is a shorter term ema of the difference between the faster and the slower
emas. This is known as the signal, and is most commonly calculated on a nine day period.
Finally, a histogram of the difference between the MACD and the signal is drawn in the form of a bar
chart.
When inputting your time periods to a charting tool to draw a MACD, you input them as (faster,
slower, signal). In the example above, this would read as MACD (12, 26, 9).
Now all you need to know is how to interpret a MACD. Again, this is fairly easy, though as with
anything worthwhile takes a little practice.
The emas of the share price show the changing price of an asset over time. The MACD line
shows the trend of this price change. So by comparing the two, you can identify shifts in the
changing trend, in strength as well as direction.
When the MACD (blue) crosses the signal (red), this is a signal that the trend of price direction is
changing. If the MACD crosses up through the signal, then this is a bullish crossover and
indicates a buying opportunity. On the other hand, if the MACD crosses down through the signal,
then this is a bearish crossover and signals a selling opportunity.
At the point of crossover, the histogram will always have a value of 0. This histogram narrows
toward a crossing point, and so is also a good identifier of the changing trend.
Another indicator of a changing trend on a MACD graph, though not as good as the bullish and
bearish crossovers, is when the MACD line crosses zero. A move from the negative to the
positive is bullish and vice versa.
The third main indicator shown on a MACD graph is the difference between the actual stock price
and the MACD line (divergence). If the stock price hits a new low but the MACD line doesnt,
then the down trend may soon reverse. Again, the opposite is true: if the stock price hits a new
high but the MACD line doesnt, then an uptrend in price may soon reverse.
The final divergence indicator is the divergence between the stock price and the histogram. If the
stock price hits a new high, but the histogram doesnt, then this is a bearish indicator, and vice
versa.
So its important to become familiar with the MACD, and find how it best works for you. Many
traders wait for a change of trend to be confirmed after two or three days before acting, and
others look at increasing trading volumes or combine with other technical analysis to make trade
decisions.
But one thing is for sure: when you are proficient with the MACD it will become part of your
everyday routine, and help you make better trading choices.
In past articles we have talked about pin bar reversal candles, and outside bars, as potential areas in
the market where price can reverse. I now want to look at another candle formation that can also be
an indication of a potential reversal signal.
No supply and no demand candles take into consideration the buying and selling volume within the
candle formation. By studying the volume within a candle, you can establish where buyers and
sellers are active or inactive in the market.
No Supply Candles. (No Sellers)
No supply candles indicate a potential long trade. The criteria for a no supply candle is as follows.
The Volume within the candle formation has to be lower than the volume of the previous 2 candles.
There has to be some sort of rejection (pin or wick) at the low of the candle.
Below is an example of a no supply candle on a daily chart. The dotted line highlights the bearish
candle with rejection at the low, and lower volume than the previous 2 candles.
As you can see it was a nice reversal level in the pair, and went on to produce some nice pips.
No demand candles indicate a potential short trade. The criteria for a no demand candle is as
follows.
The Volume within the candle formation again has to be lower than the volume of the previous 2
candles.
The candle has to close bullish (green body).
There has to be some sort of rejection (pin or wick) at the high of the candle.
If the candle closed at the top it would not be a no supply candle.
Below is an example of two no demand candles on a daily chart. The dotted lines highlight the
bullish candles with rejection at the high, and lower volume than the previous 2 candles.
The two no demand candles both produced nice trades, but more importantly they also formed a
double top in the market, which is another good reversal signal in itself.
If you look at the second no demand candle, you will also see an inside bar next to it, which is a sign
of indecision in the market. A nice 50% retrace entry on that too before the sell off :)
Using no supply and no demand candles as potential reversal points within supply and demand areas
is a trading strategy that can produce some nice results.
