Forex strategy «4H Scalp System» is very easy to use, but, as the name implies, quite an active scalping strategy. There are a lot of deals on only one pair, and you can trade on any pair. The presence of a trend in this strategy does not play a special role, although it is worth recognizing that at the moments of protracted and narrow lateral movements, the strategy begins to “excite”.
Statistics:We tested the strategy for two pairs (EUR/USD and GBP/USD) from September 2022 to January 2023 and the strategy showed a positive result for them in the amount of +3750 points. A negative result was obtained only in one month and for the EUR/USD pair. Just at that moment there was a narrow and protracted lateral movement along the pair.
Indicators:- Time interval — H4.
- Exponential moving average with a period of 21 — EMA21.
Conditions for BUY to the Forex Strategy «4H Scalp System»:
1) The previous H4 candle closed above the moving average.
2) A new candle opens above the middle of the previous candle (the middle of the candle is high — low).
3) If these conditions are met, then a buy deal is concluded.
4) Stop loss is set in the amount corresponding to the pair (AUD / USD, USD / CHF, USD / CAD — 30, EUR / USD — 40, GBP USD, EUR / JPY, GPB / JPY — 50) For other pairs, this size is all — still have to determine yourself.
5) If the candle closes with a white body, and the deal has not yet been closed, then it should be transferred to breakeven.
6) If the candle closes with a black body, then the trade is closed at the market price.
7) If the first candle after the entry closes at a distance greater than or equal to the size of two stop losses, then the trade is closed.
