CADJPY 1D MA-X STRATEGY CONTINUATION LONG Tim's MA-X Strategy. This is a Moing Average Cross or MA-X strategy setup. MA-X strategy consists of the 100 period simple moving average (SMA) in red, and the 20 period exponential moving average in blue. If the 20 ema is above the 100 sma then we only take buys or longs. If the 20 ema is below the 100 sma the we only take selss or shorts. *In this case price is above the 100 sma so we will only take buys or longs. *This Pair has been in a nice uptrend foe some time. *It's now pulled back below the 20 ema and consolidating below the 20. *We are going to look for a close above the 20 ema to go long. *This trade plan we buy a daily candle close above the 20 ema. On the breaking candle to enter a full-sized position we want to the volume bar reach up to the volume average. If it doesn't reach the average but does reach 75% of the average open a ½ size position to reduce risk. You can calculate the percentage by dividing the first volume average by the second volume average. You should at least get 75%, if you don't then stand aside on the trade. The stop loss will be 1.5 x ATR. The first target will be 1 x ATR. So the way that works is you get your candle close above the 20 ema that's your entry point. At that time you look at the ATR of that candle. You multiply that by 1.5 to get your SL. You measure that distance behind the entry and that will be your SL. Then you measure 1 ATR above the entry and that will be your first target. If after entering the trade the candle closes back below the 20 ema, tke the loss right then. Do not wait for price to hit the SL. Our intention is that a breakout above the 20 ema should be explosive and hit our target fairly quickly. If the momentum goes away we want to shut the trade down without taking a full stop if possible. When price hits our first target, close half the position for profit and set the SL to break even on the remainder. Follow stops as price moves in our direction until the market takes us out. These two rules are the very definition of cuttoing your losses and letting your winners run. Typically does this by using two positions. The first position has a stop loss and a take profit. That position will close automatically when the first target is hit. The second position will only have a stop loss and not take profit. This is the position that will be allowed to run. When the first target is hit we have to manually move our stop up to break even on the second position. Risk only two percent of your trading account of each trade. Each position will then only be 1%.

USDJPY 15M ASIAN SESSION TIM'S MA CROSS STRATEGYThis is a New Trading Day Session on the USDJPY 15m chart. Price is in a consolidation sideways movement. Price has been above the 20ema for awhile. Tim's MA Cross rule 1 is 20 ema is below 100sma for short trade. Rule 2 Sell Signal candle OPENS above 20ema and CLOSES below 20ema. Because of the consolidation sideways move I plan to enter when price breaks the support at the Sell Signal candles low. I entered a Sell Stop at 108.63. Volume was above MA line so 100% full size position was made. I have added the ADRHiLo indicator to help me find my TP level at the ADR Low of 108.21 To view Tim's MA Cross Strategy go to TSG YouTube videos and watch his current video "How to trade my best MA Cross Forex Strategy".

BTCUSD - Old Channel Top, no way that breaks!For the moment --- NO ALTS, JUST BTC. Sell between 6500$ and 7700$. There is heave resistance from the old channe drawn in purple. People could soon come back to earth. There is going to be a massive shake off. I expect it between the 20 and 28th of May based on TD Setup and Countdown in different Timeframes. Actually if the 3D chart keeps up the great work, on the 25th of May! D TD: 13 completion somewhen around the 20th of May. 3D TD: 9 13 Completion on the 25th of May and ends on the 28th of May. 4D TD: 13 on the 21th of May. 9 on the 25th of May. 5D TD: Hopefully not in another Countdown/Setup phase by than, because it gave us great signals so far. 13D TD: 9 13 Completion starts on the 24th of March and ends on the 6th of June Also the Weekly 100 SMA at 6513$, where we could possibly wick through but not close above.

DOUBLE DEATH CROSS STRATEGY WTI CRUDE STOCKApply these SMA Indicators on your chart - 50 - 100 - 200 Step #1: Wait for the 50-day EMA to cross below the 100-day EMA. The two moving averages also need to converge with the price action. If we get the crossover of the 50-day MA (blue line) and 100-day MA (orange line) at the same time the price is testing those moving averages, that’s the best-case situation for a trade because we can define the risk. The rule you need to keep in mind is that when the MAs converge with the price you have to get ready for the ride because it is going to get BUMPY! Step #2: Multiple entry strategy: Sell 1 when we close below 50-day MA and 100-day MA. Sell 2 when we break and close below 200-day MA. Using multiple entries to improve your average entry price can be the best way to approach the death cross signal. Scaling in to a position is our preferred trading method when looking to capture large price move in a currency pair. The fact that the price was near the death cross signal, it created a tension in the market that eventually will lead to a sharp move to the downside. We pull the trigger on the first half of the trade once we close below the 50-day and 100-day moving averages. If at the moment when the death cross developed we’re already trading slightly below the two moving averages, sell at the market the moment we close below. The second half of our position is entered once we break and close below the 200-day moving average. Note* it’s important to remember that the success of the death cross signal relays on this simple trade secret that price and the two moving averages needs to converge. Keep it simple stupid is not just a simple aphorism, but it’s an old truth that can make the difference between losing and making money trading. This brings us to the next important thing that we need to establish for our long-term trading strategy, which is where to place our protective stop loss. Step #3: Hide your protective Stop Loss above 50-day MA and 100-day MA The most important thing we need to define when trading is our risk. If you want to be a profitable trader you really need a limited risk. This is the type of death cross trades that we want to pull the trigger on. If the price were to move back above those moving averages, we can safely assume this is yet another false trade signal. In this trade case scenario, we’re risking a little and our reward is potentially much bigger. So, the best place to hide your protective stop loss is above the 50-day MA and 100-day MA. Step #4: Two-step process for the take profit strategy: Mark on your chart the high of the candle when the 50-day MA crossed below 200-day EMA. Take profit when this high is broken. Our take profit strategy might seem a little bit complex, but once we break down the steps you need to follow it will make more sense why we’ve chosen this approach. The first thing you have to do is to remember what we said in the beginning of the article which is that when the price doesn’t converge with the two MAs this is a death cross false signal. In our example below, we can observe this type of price action. Now all you have to do is to mark the high of the candle when the death cross happened and take profit as soon as the high gets broken. Note** the above was an example of a SELL trade using the death cross strategy. Use the same rules for a BUY trade – but in reverse, in which case we have the golden cross trading strategy.
