To the top, of course, let everyone think.

edikjefimov:
I think the indicators will only delay the opening of the order, and a lot of false signals, I think it is better to put Shto closed at 000.00 when reaching, say, 12 orders or Shto change this number may be at will and depending on the deposit

By the way - not a bad idea !!!!!!

)))By the way - zig-zagging is more interesting!!!!!

emonh 2012.05.25 09:06 #125

OK, I'm starting to realise that I'm losing my grasp of how this strategy works, if you could describe it again point by point and specifically with examples.

[Deleted] 2012.05.25 09:07 #126

)))Everything is exactly the same algorithm as described by Edik!!!!

emonh 2012.05.25 09:09 #127

Lucas_SPb:
)))Everything is absolutely according to the algorithm described by Edik!!!!

I understand it, but now I think I see it a bit differently, I don't even know how to explain it in words...

That's why I asked again and point by point.

Here :

1.Check the ZigZag (although you could also add finding the bottom point of the indent)

2.Open a buy order

3.Place a sell order at the same time

4.When a Sell order triggers, we open a Buy order, etc.

5.In this case we increase the lot
