Long Entry Rules
Enter a buy in the market if the following indicator or chart pattern takes precedence:
- If the lime line of the Doda-Stochastic.ex4 custom indicator crosses its red line bottom up below the 20.00 level (the oversold region), breaking and staying above the 20.00 as shown on Fig. 1.0, price is said to be driven higher i.e. a signal to buy the asset of interest.
- If the magenta line of the 50 SMA indicator crosses the red line of the Doda-Donchian.ex4 custom indicator bottom up, it is an indication of bullish pressures i.e. a signal to go long on the pair of interest.
Stop Loss for Buy Entry: Place stop loss 2 pips below support.
Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Buy Entry
Exit or take profit if the following holds sway on the activity chart:
- If the lime line of the Doda-Stochastic.ex4 custom indicator crosses its red line top downward when in the overbought region (above the 80.00 signal level) and then breaks below the 80.00 signal level, it is a signal to exit or take profit forthwith.
- If the magenta line of the 50 SMA indicator crosses the red line of the Doda-Donchian.ex4 custom indicator top downwards during a bullish signal, we can conclude that the bulls power is weaning, hence an exit or take profit is recommended.

- If the lime line of the Doda-Stochastic.ex4 custom indicator crosses its red line top downward above the 80.00 level (the overbought region), breaking and staying below the 80.00 as depicted on Fig. 1.1, price is said to be pushed lower i.e. a signal to sell the asset of interest.
- If the magenta line of the 50 SMA indicator crosses the red line of the Doda-Donchian.ex4 custom indicator top downward, it is an indication of bearish pressures i.e. a signal to go short on the currency of interest.
