⑤ Trading Strategy 2 (apply ④)
It is also possible to decide a single direction (HIGH or LOW) and keep purchasing same direction on multiple Option contracts Hint: if you think it will be difficult to make more than 8 consecutive correct trades, it will be also difficult to make incorrect trade at 8 times. You will be able to profit even tough you make one winning strategy. However you need to understand that there is potential significant downside for a small profit. Check what total positions you can trade first.
⑥ Use candle patterns for market entry!
Timing 1: end of trend, when the market price moves in the opposite direction.
★In the event of UP trend
If the market price is trending upwards and then a Bearish (lower) candlestick appears and its closing price was lower than the last Bullish (higher) candlestick opening price then its a potential sign that the Bull trend is finishing and time to choose a "LOW" trade as a Bearish trend starts.
★In the event of DOWN trend
If the market price is trending downwards and then a Bullish (higher) candlestick appears and its closing price was higher than the last Bearish (lower) candlestick opening price then its a potential sign that the Bear trend is finishing and time to choose a "HIGH" trade as a Bullish trend starts.
Example (in the event of UP trend)
Timing 2: Take advantage of breakouts to find a trend
Markets tend to oscillate but from time to time breakouts occur.
Look at the sideways market. A big movement in one direction may indicate that price will continue in that direction.
If there is bullish candlestick, purchase HIGH, if bearlish, purchase LOW.
⑦ Use Technical Indicators (e.g. MACD)
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
A trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of prices. The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-day exponential moving average (EMA) from the 12-day EMA. A nine-day EMA of the MACD, called the "signal line", is then plotted on top of the MACD, functioning as a trigger for buy and sell signals.
How to see and use
Note: MACD (fast moving line - red line), Signal (slow moving line - light blue) and 0 (zero - orange) line
Trending market
First check whether price is trending. If the MACD indicator is flat or stays close to the zero line, the market is ranging and signals are unreliable.
• Go long when MACD crosses its signal line from below. (Golden Cross)
• Go short when MACD crosses its signal line from above. (Dead Cross)
Signals are far stronger if there is either:
> a divergence on the MACD indicator; or
> a large swing above or below the zero line.
MACD Setup
The default settings for the MACD indicator are:
• Slow moving average - 26 days
• Fast moving average - 12 days
• Signal line - 9 day moving average of the difference between fast and slow.
• All moving averages are exponential.
Example of trading using MACD signal can be found below:
