    Strategy

    Long Entry Rules

    Initiate a buy entry if the following indicator or chart pattern gets put on display:

    • If the magenta 36 SMA Metatrader 4 indicator line crosses below the dual colored (red & blue) Mega trend indicator line in a bottom up fashion as illustrated on Fig. 1.0, bulls are said to be driving price higher, thus a trigger to buy the currency pair of interest.
    • If the ascending silver arrows of the ScalpCycle forex indicator get displayed within the indicator window as shown on Fig. 1.0, the general market sentiment is said to be bullish i.e. a signal to buy the designated forex pair.

    Stop Loss for Buy Entry: Place stop loss below short-term support.

    Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Buy Entry

    Exit or take profit if the following rules or conditions takes precedence:

    • If during the course of a bullish trend, the magenta 36 SMA indicator line intersects the dual colored Mega trend indicator line, it is pointing to diminishing bulls power, therefore an exit or take profit stance will suffice.
    • If the ScalpCycle indicator pops up a red arrow while a bullish trend is running (refer to Fig. 1.0), a bearish reversal is said to be on the horizon, thus an exit or take profit stance is recommended.

    Sell Entry Rules

    Enter a sell order if the following holds true:

    • If the magenta 36 SMA indicator line crosses above the dual colored (red & blue) Mega trend indicator line in a top downward manner as exemplified on Fig. 1.1, bears are said to be dragging price lower i.e. a signal to go short on the currency pair of focus.
    • If the descending red arrows of the ScalpCycle forex indicator gets displayed within the indicator window as depicted on Fig. 1.1, the overall market sentiment is said to be bearish i.e. a signal to sell the currency pair of interest.

    Stop Loss for Sell Entry: Place stop loss above short-term resistance.

    Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Sell Entry

    Exit or take profit if the following takes center stage:

    • If the magenta 36 SMA indicator line intersects the dual colored Mega trend indicator line while a bearish trend is running, it is signaling weaning bears power i.e. a trigger to exit or take profit forthwith.
    • If the ScalpCycle indicator pops up a silver arrow while a bearish trend is ongoing (see Fig. 1.1), price is said to be making a U-turn, as such an exit or take profit stance is advised.
