    Long Entry Rules

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

    • If the royal blue bars of the HAMA_ custom indicator align somewhat below the candlesticks as shown on Fig. 1.0, price is said to be driven to the upside i.e. a trigger to go bullish on the designated currency pair.
    • If the dual colored (red & lime) RSItv indicator line breaksand stays above the 50.00 horizontal level as seen on Fig. 1.0, the general market sentiment is said to be bullish i.e. a trigger to go long on the currency pair of interest.
    • If the green and red lines of the Relative Vigor Index Metatrader 4 forex indicator break and hover above the zero horizontal level as depicted on Fig. 1.0, the overall market sentiment is said to be bullish, thus a trigger to buy the currency pair of focus.

    Stop Loss for Buy Entry: Place stop loss below the previous swing low.

    Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Buy Entry

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

    • If while a bullish trend is ongoing, the HAMA_ indicator pops up a red bar within the activity chart (see Fig. 1.0), bulls are said to be closing their positions increasingly, thus a trigger to exit or take profit forthwith.
    • If the dual colored (red & lime) RSItv indicator line breaks below the 50.00 signal level while a bullish trend is on course, a bearish reversal is said to be underway, hence an exit or take profit stance will suffice.
    • If the green line of the Relative Vigor Index indicator dips below the zero horizontal level while a bullish trend is running, it is a signal to exit or take profit straightway.

    Sell Entry Rules

    Enter a sell order if the following holds true:

    • If the red bars of the HAMA_ custom indicator align fairly above the price bars as exemplified on Fig. 1.1, bears are said to be dragging price lower, thus a trigger to go short on the designated forex pair.
    • If the dual colored (red & lime) RSItv indicator line dipsand hovers below the 50.00 horizontal level as depicted on Fig. 1.1, it is signaling an increased bear market activity, as such a sell alert will suffice.
    • If the green and red lines of the Relative Vigor Index forex indicator dip and hover below the zero horizontal level as portrayed on Fig. 1.1, bears are said to be driving price lower, hence a sell alert is duly recommended.

    Stop Loss for Sell Entry: Place stop loss above the previous swing high.

    Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Sell Entry

    Exit or take profit if the following takes center stage:

    • If while a bearish trend is running, the HAMA_ indicator displays a royal blue bar within the activity chart (refer to Fig. 1.1), bears are said to be leaving the market in their droves, therefore an exit or take profit stance is advised.
    • If the dual colored (red & lime) RSItv indicator line surges above the 50.00 signal level during a bearish trend, it is indicative of halting bears power i.e. a trigger to exit or take profit without delay.
    • If the green line of the Relative Vigor Index indicator breaks above the zero horizontal level while a bearish trend is ongoing, it is a signal to exit or take profit right away.
