QTUM/DOLLAR 2H DARVA BOX STRATEGYStep #1: Identify at least two Darvas boxes that are on top of each other The first trading rule is to let the market develop at least two Darvas Boxes. Basically, the two Darvas boxes are showing that the market is starting to move in steps to the downside. So at this point, the market also should be making lower highs followed by lower lows, which is the basic definition of an downtrend. In the real world, you’ll notice that the Darvas boxes don’t perfectly stack on top of each other. You’ll rarely find a series of Darvas boxes where the following box has the bottom perfectly aligned with the top/bottom of the previous box. You will notice that the price range of the second Darvas box can move into the space of the first Darvas box which still qualify for a valid Darvas box. Note* Big candle wicks are ignored when drawing the Darvas box. Use the closing price instead. Step #2: Draw a support line in the middle of the first Darvas box We’ve noted that there is no such thing as perfection when dealing with the price action. And since the Darvas boxes tend to overlap, another characteristic is that in most of the cases the top/bottom of the current box won’t exceed the middle of the previous Darvas box. In this case, we can anticipate that the third Darvas box will develop its top around the middle or bottom of the second Darvas box. Step #3: How to sell QTUM: Sell when we test the middle or bottom of the 2nd Darvas Box We want to buy low and sell high because that’s the rule number one to make consistent profits. We sell QTUM as soon as the middle or bottom of the 2nd Darvas box is tested this will ensure that we sell on a retracement in an already proven downtrend. Step #4: Place your protective Stop Loss above resistance level in the second Darvas Box Our improved cryptocurrency sell strategy comes with the advantage of providing us with a very tight stop loss. We can hide our protective stop loss within or above the second Darvas box. A break above the second Darvas box will invalidate the whole price structure and it’s wise to get out of the trade as soon as possible. Two things can measure the success of a trading strategy. First, how tight the stop loss is and secondly the stop loss placement needs to be logical not just a random price coming out from over-optimization. Step #5: Take profit needs to be 2 or 3 times more than your stop loss Opening a trade is just the beginning; you also need an exit strategy to maximize your profits. It’s often said that it’s more important where you take profits than your entry strategy The professional traders place more weight and attention on the exit strategy because that’s how they make money. Probably, this is one of the oldest trading secrets that smart money doesn’t want you to know. Note** the above was an example of a SELL trade using the Free QTUM cryptocurrency strategy. Use the same rules for a BUY trade – but in reverse.

EURUSD 30M TDI LONG STRATEGYFind TDIGM under indicator search Step #1: Look for the Read Line to break above the Yellow Line The yellow line is regarded as being the most important line of the TDI indicator because it binds together all the other parts and it makes the indicator tradable. Traders also refer to the yellow line as the Market Base line. The yellow line can be used to determine the long-term trend. We need to see an alignment between the long-term trend and the short-term trend in order to successfully scalp the market. When we have positive expectation coming into the market, the red line must be above the green and the yellow line. That’s the first signal that the buyers are stepping into the market. Step #2: Wait for the Green Line to also break above the Yellow Line. The Red Line must not break above the upper blue band. The second required condition for a valid trade signal is to also wait for the green line to break above the yellow line. Once this happens, we have an alignment between the short-term trend and the long-term trend. When an alignment in the trend direction occurs, that’s when we have those explosive scalping opportunities. The catch is that we need the red line to be contained inside the blue Bollinger Bands. When the red line breaks the upper blue band, we know the market is stepping on the gas. This means we have an acceleration in volatility and tells us that the buyers are exhausted. We don’t want that to happen! Step #3: Buy at the closing candle after the Green Line breaks above the Yellow Line When the green line crosses above the yellow line, it tells us that the buyers are buying and the fact that we have positive sentiment. We’re looking to buy in a market with increasing volatility and in a market where both the short-term and the long-term trend align in the same upward direction. When the price and the market sentiment align, and they are sharing the same sort of expectation, then that’s the best time to enter the market. So, we buy at the closing candle after the green line crosses above the yellow line. Step #4: Hide your protective Stop Loss below the respective swing low developed as a result of the red line crossing above the green line. Find on the chart the last time the red line crossed above the green line and located on the price chart the respective swing low developed as a result of this crossover. Now, use this swing low to hide your protective stop loss. Step #5: You choose Take profit or when both the red line and the green line crosses above the 70 level The real reversal signal is given when the green line also joins the red line and touches the 70 level which signals buyer exhaustion again. When this happens, we want to take profits. The expectation is that when we get up to these levels to start looking for market reversal because the market it can’t go any higher. And this is the perfect place to get out of our scalping trade and take profits. Note** the above was an example of a BUY trade using the best traders dynamic index strategy. Use the same rules for a SELL trade – but in reverse.

Zcoin (XZC) Cryptocurrency Strategy – 3L-R Trade PatternZcoin XZC 30m The 3L-R reversal is a four-bar pattern and it means three lows (3L) followed by a reversal (R). The main characteristics of this reversal chart pattern are the three consecutive lower low candles. The high price of these three particular candles doesn’t matter; the only thing that matter is that each low is lower than the prior low. The fourth bar of the reversal chart pattern needs to have the high bigger than the highest high of the previous 3 candles. We’re not concerned about the low of the last bar. Step #1: Identify Three Consecutive Lower Low Candles The first component of this reversal pattern is the three consecutive lower low candles. At this point we’re not concerned about the highs of the three candles. However, you’ll notice that most of the time each consecutive high is also lower than the previous high. What is great about the Zcoin (XZC) cryptocurrency strategy is the fact that it’s designed to catch market reversals right at the moment they occur. Step #2: The fourth candle breaks above the first bar high in the reversal pattern The immediate candle after the three lower lows needs to be a bullish candle and secondly it needs to break above the first bar high in the pattern. Normally, the highest high of the first three bars is made by the first bar, however, in the event that this is not the highest high we need to wait until the fourth candle breaks above the highest high of the previous 3 candles. Note* It’s important that the 4th candle breaks above the first candle high, not the 5th or the 6th because that will invalidate the reversal pattern. We need to be very precise when trading reversal patterns like the 3L-R pattern. Even though we said that we’re not concerned with the low of the fourth bar, it does matter if the low is higher than the third bar’s low. Through our backtesating results we have found out that this yields better trading performance. Step #3: How to buy Zcoin: Buy if the fourth candle closes above the last three candles highest high Before we pull the trigger and buy cryptocurrency Zcoin we need for the fourth candle to also close above the first candle high or above the last three candle highest high point, whichever that might be. Now is the time to convert this reversal setup into profit and buy Zcoin when the fourth candle closes above the last three candles highest high. Step #4: Place your protective Stop Loss below the 3L-R pattern low Trading reversals have lots of benefits and among other things it offers us the possibility to really use a very tight stop loss. If the trade doesn’t work the market will tell you very quickly and it will produce only very little damage to your account balances. Like with any reversal pattern, if you want to keep the stop very tight you need to place your protective SL below the reversal pattern aka below the 3L-R pattern low. Step #5: Take profit should be at least two times bigger than your Stop Loss If you trade this reversal pattern on intraday charts, it’s best to simply take profit once the Zcoin price will give you a return that is two times more than your stop loss. In other words, you have a risk to reward ratio of 1:2. Alternatively, if you use higher time frames the exit strategy should be based on a trailing stop. Note** the above was an example of a BUY trade using the best Zcoin XZC cryptocurrency strategy. Use the same rules for a SELL trade – but in reverse.

USDJPY Short Trade SetupUSDJPY moved as we expected it to. Our long trades made good profit and we are now looking for the entry to the downside. We can see an impulse down to A on the left and then a 3 wave corrective structure up to B which has now broken to the downside. I am looking for a retest of the structure for a short entry where my target will be C which should break the previous low at A. There I will start looking for signs of a reversal and a long entry to the upside where we could see a break of the highs.

HOW TO TRADE ELLIOTT for BEGINNEERSStep #1 Wait until you can spot at least a 3 wave Elliott Wave sequence Since we always advocate trading in the direction of the trend, as explained above, we’re only attempting to catch the last wave 5. So, in order to find our Elliott Wave entry points we need to let the market tip his hands off and wait to develop the first 3 waves of a five Elliott Wave pattern We must verify that each wave complies with the Elliott Wave strategy rules in order to confirm the validity of our Elliott Wave count. In the figure above, we’ve spotted a bearish Elliott wave count that complies with the Elliott Wave strategy rules, which means we’re looking for a sell setup. Step #2 Sell between 38.2% and 50% Fibonacci retracement of Wave 3 One of the Elliott wave rules states that, ideally, wave 4 should retrace between 38.2% and 50% Fibonacci retracement of wave 3. Our Elliott Wave entry points are at 38.2% because we never know for sure how far the market will retrace and we don’t want to miss the move. We’re pretty much sure that with experience you can fine tune your Elliott Wave entry points and get even better entries. Now, we can note that wave four retrace a little bit above the 50% retracement. Since the market is never a perfect place where rules are respected to the pip there will always be small variations and the Elliott Wave strategy is no exception from the rule Step #3 Place the Protective Stop Loss few pips above the Wave 1 Ending Point In the section “How to trade Elliott Wave” we highlight the importance of wave 4 never entering into the wave 1 territory. In this regard, it’s smart to place our stop loss exactly where the Elliott Wave pattern will be invalidated. Step #4 Take Profit when Wave 5 is equal to Wave 1 or when we break below wave 3 With the Elliott Wave strategy is all about experimenting new trade ideas and we encourage you to find your own set of rules because once you have a firm understanding how to trade Elliott Wave you can develop many Elliott Wave strategies around it. In this regard, we don’t have a set in stone take profit strategy because the Elliott Wave strategy looks to maximize profits and the only way you can do this is through flexibility because no two Elliott Wave structure is the same Note** The above was an example of a SELL trade… Use the same rules – but in reverse – for a BUY trade. PM me if you want to read the complete strategy.
