Strategy
Long Entry Rules
Place a buy order if the following conditions or rules holds true:
- If the Fast signals custom indicator forms a blue arrow below price bars, with price breaking past the blue dotted line of the indicator, it is indicative of a strong buy signal.
- If the blue line of the Relative Strength Index (14) breaks above the 50.0000 level, it is a sign that price pressures favors the upside i.e. a bullish trend.
Stop Loss for Buy Entry: Place stop loss ~ 5 – 15 pips below entry price.
Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Buy Entry
Exit or take profit on position(s) if the following conditions or rules are met:
- If the Fast signals custom indicator forms a red downward pointing arrow that is aligned above price bars, then we can say that price is about to make a U-turn, thereby prompting us to exit or take profit accordingly.
- If the blue line of the Relative strength Index (14) breaks above the 70 level, it signals price in the overbought region, which might give way to a possible reversal – an exit or take profit is needed here.
Sell Entry Rules
Enter a sell order in the market if the following chart or indicator patterns are in display:
- If the Fast signals custom indicator forms a downward pointing red arrow that placed above price bars, with price breaking below the indicator’s red dotted line, it denotes a sell signal.
- If the blue line of the Relative Strength Index (14) breaks below the 50.0000 level, it is an indication that price is being pressured lower, thereby resulting into a bearish trend.
Stop Loss for Sell Entry: Place stop loss ~ 5 – 15 pips above entry price.
Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Sell Entry
Exit or take profit on order(s) if the following rules or conditions holds sway:
- As seen on Fig. 1.1 if the blue upward pointing arrow of the Fast signals custom indicator forms below price bars, it indicates a reversal in price action i.e. an exit or take profit trigger.
- If the blue line of the Relative Strength Index MT4 indicator breaks below the 30 level, it is an indication of price being in the oversold region, thus prompting a possible reversal in price, which in turns gives way to a possible exit or take profit.

About The Trading Indicators
The fastsignals.ex4 custom indicator is a technical study that incorporates a band along with arrows (red downward pointing arrows for sell and blue upward pointing arrows for buy) in measuring price action.
Finally, the Relative Strength Index MT4 Indicator (RSI) is a price-following oscillator that oscillates between 0 and 100. The indicator was designed by Wilder and he suggested the use of the 14-Day RSI.
