Forex Strategy «Quiet position» is a simple trend-based system forex indicators that are available on any trading platform Metatrader 4:
- SMA (21) — simple moving average with a period averaging 21, which is based on closing prices
- Stochastic Oscillator — Stochastics (% K period — 5, period% D — 3, slowing 3).
Analysis of chosen any currency pair produce on the timeframe Daily. The location of the market prices in relation with a moving average SMA (21) indicates the main trend of the situation at the moment. Ie Average SMA (21) — is like a «waterline» of the forex market — if prices at the moment, located above the moving average, then we will open the transaction only buy if the prices are below — we will deal only open for sale. Roughly it looks like this:
Now that we have no problems to decide which direction we will open a deal, let’s define the time of entry into the trading position of forex strategy «Quiet position:
And so for the transaction to the implementation of 3 conditions:
1) availability of the required setup for the opening of the transaction;
2) The presence of a trigger to open the transaction;
3) allowing the signal to the input filter into the market.
If all these conditions are met — are opening a bargain at the price of opening of the next candle.
And now look at these terms more detail:
Trade setup for the opening of the transaction — the provision of 2 bars was close relative to the moving average SMA (21). These two candles should be on one side of our moving average. It is also possible that the 1-st candle was placed on one side of the mean, and its high or low (it depends on the direction of the opening of the desired trading position) was on the opposite side from the middle — where is the 2-I spark setup.
All the candles on the left of the picture drawn on a red rectangle are the candles «setup for the BUY.» All the candles to the right of this red rectangle — Candles «setup for SELL» (according to the rules of the location of the market in relation to the SMA (21)). However, they are two candles in the rectangle are not candles trade setup. This condition is necessary to ensure that the trader does not enter into any transaction on the day of a trend reversal in the market.
TRIGGER for the deal — closing the current trading day below the minimum price the previous trading day for transactions concluded on the sale and closing of the current trading day above the previous high price for the transactions concluded on the purchase.
Look at the examples of these situations:
Continued
Of the filter of a stochastic oscillator:
As soon as the% K line crosses the% D from the bottom up, we get a signal on the deal on the purchase, and on the contrary — down — up for sale. Be sure to note that the trading signals that come from the overbought (80), and from oversold (20) should be ignored!
Now let’s combine a all conditions for the opening of trading positions together to trade forex strategy «quiet position».
