Detailed algorithm when working on a downtrend

Step 1

On the higher timeframe (M15) the right fan should be formed moving averages (3 EMA below 5 EMA, 5 EMA below 15 EMA, 15 EMA below 45 EMA) and both bar indicators should turn red.

Step 2

The price should touch the 3 EMA on the high TF.

Step 3

Switch to a lower timeframe (M5) and check the position of the price relative to the fan of averages.

Step 4

We expect a signal to open a long position on the low TF. Should form a candle with the closing price below the 5 EMA, and both bar indicators should be colored red.

Step 5

We check for a bearish mood on the older timeframe (5 EMAs below the 15 EMA, 15 EMAs below the 45 EMA, and both bar indicators are red).

Step 6

On the low TF, we determine the level of the stop (by the nearest local maximum or by the average; the algorithm is the same as in the Power Trader strategy).

Step 7

Open a position.

Step 8

We measure take profit (usually in the ratio of 1:1 to the stop).

Step 9

Continue to manage the position (the algorithm is the same as in the Power Trader strategy).

Step 10 (optional)

If necessary, we use a trailing stop.

Some special features when working with a strategy Quick Trader

As mentioned earlier, once the price touches the 3 EMA and switches to a lower timeframe, it is often between the 5 EMA and 15 EMA.

Knowing this pattern, we can trade the strategy without switching to a higher TF. That is, we simply wait for the price to be between the aforementioned averages (in the working TF), and then enter the trade when there is a candle with the closing price above/below (depending on the trend direction) the 5 EMA.

When working according to the simplified algorithm, the following should be taken into account:

On the lower TF, during the price entering the space between the moving averages, the bar indicators should not be colored in the opposite direction (on the uptrend - to red, on the descending one to green). The exception is the appearance of one or a pair of gray bars.

The moving averages should be placed in the correct order on the lower TF. In an uptrend the 5 EMA should be above the 15 EMA, in a downtrend it should be below.

By sticking to these recommendations, you will be able to filter out most losing trades.
