Strategy

 

Opening positions

 

a.        When Macd Histogram change from negative to positive or positive to negative.

b.       In order it to be a positive trade signal the bar needs to finish. 

c.        It will open a trade in the direction of Macd Histogram (positive long and negative short). 

d.       It will only open one trade each time Macd Histogram change direction, if the trade meet objective it will wait until Macd Histogram change direction again.

e.        The Macd histogram change direction must be in the trading hours and minutes.

f.          If Macd Histogram level is set, Macd histogram will need to cross this line and finish the actual bar in order to be a positive trade signal.

 

There are two types of entries; at closing price of the bar or chosen distance from the closing price of the bar. 

 

1.        At closing price of the bar: it will open a limit order with the closing price of the previous bar.

 

2.        “Open order win” parameter. Chosen distance from the closing price of the bar: limit order is set up XX (defined points on expert properties) points opposite the direction of the trade.

 

Closing positions

 

a.        When Macd Histogram change from negative to positive or positive to negative.

b.       In order it to be a positive trade signal the bar needs to finish. 

c.        It can close a position after hours if the conditions are met.

 

There are three options for closing trade; when Macd Histogram change direction, stop loss or trailing stop loss.

 

1.        Macd Histogram change direction and is confirmed by finishing a Bar on Macd Histogram change direction: it creates a market order.

2.        Stop loss, if conditions of pint 1 are meet before stop loss it must close position as option 1.

3.        Trailing stop is set. Same as point number 2.

1.        Macd histogram breaks positive after being in negative (It happens after Start Hour 07:00). 

2.        Bar finish and Macd histogram end on positive, it confirms direction change. Open order is set, as “open order” parameter is set at 30, it means; (closing price 1.15270 – 30 = 1.15240). Open order at 1.15240 is met and trade is open.

3.        Macd histogram breaks into negative from positive and finish on negative, it confirms direction change.

4.        A market order is executed to close the buy trade, it trigged at closing price 1.15280. it generates a profit of 40 points. (no spread or market order is taken in account for this example)

5.        Open order is set with an open order win of 30, closing price of the bar at 1.15280 + 30 = 1.15310. Look that as this is a sell order the “open order win” needs to be sum. It looks like open order is meet and a sell trade is on.
