Strategy
Long Entry Rules
Place buy orders in the market if the following indicator or chart pattern gets displayed:
- If the red upward pointing arrow of the ZigAndZag.ex4 custom indicator aligns somewhat below the candlesticks as seen on Fig. 1.0, it is an indication of an upward price surge, hence a signal to buy the currency pair of focus.
- If the lime bars of the XO custom indicator aligns above the 0.00 level as depicted on Fig. 1.0, the sentiment in the market is said to be somewhat bullish, hence a nod to buy the asset of choice.
Stop Loss for Buy Entry: Place stop loss 3 pips below short-term support.
Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Buy Entry
Exit or take profit if the following rules or conditions are met:
- If the ZigAndZag.ex4 custom indicator forms a downward pointing arrow that pops up above the candlesticks during an ongoing buy condition, then it is a trigger to exit or take profit at once.
- If the XO custom indicator forms a red bar when long positions are live in the market, then it is a pointer to possible weaning Bulls power, hence an exit or take profit is recommended.
Sell Entry Rules
Take up sell position(s) if the following holds true:
- If the red downward pointing arrow of the ZigAndZag.ex4 custom indicator aligns somewhat above the candlesticks as shown on Fig. 1.1, it is an indication of a downward price dip, hence a signal to sell the designated forex pair.
- If the red bars of the XO custom indicator aligns below the 0.00 level as illustrated on Fig. 1.1, the sentiment in the market is said to be somewhat bearish, hence a nod to sell the specified currency pair.
Stop Loss for Sell Entry: Place stop loss 3 pips above short-term resistance.
Exit Strategy/Take Profit for Sell Entry
Exit or take profit if the following takes center stage:
- If the ZigAndZag.ex4 custom indicator forms an upward pointing arrow that pops up somewhere below the candlesticks during an ongoing sell condition, then it is a trigger to exit or take profit at once.
- If the XO custom indicator forms a lime bar when short positions are live in the market, then it is a pointer to possible weaning Bears power, hence an exit or take profit is recommended.
