Trade based on Market Cycle Indicator
This trading strategy is based on the reversal pattern, known as Pin-Bar in market cycle indicators. Market cycle indicators attempt to predict the future direction of the market based on statistical analysis.
Time frame: M30,. However, market cycle indicators work on any time frame.
Buy signal conditions:
Time frame: M30,. However, market cycle indicators work on any time frame.
Buy signal conditions:
- Market Cycle indicator is above zero (default setting is blue histogram bars)
- A bullish pin-bar is formed. A bullish pin-bar has a longer lower shadow and a smaller upper shadow, with its body size several times smaller than its lower shadow. The body of a bullish pin-bar can be either bullish or bearish.
- The previous bar of the pin-bar was bearish.
- The low of the pin-bar must be lower than the low of the previous bearish bar.
Sell signal conditions:
- Market Cycle indicator below zero (red histogram bars by default)
- A bearish pin-bar is formed. A bearish pin-bar has a long upper shadow and a smaller lower shadow, with its body size several times smaller than its upper shadow. The body of a bearish pin-bar can be bullish or bearish.
- The previous bar of the pin-bar was bullish.
- The high of the pin-bar must be higher than the high of the previous bullish bar.
Stop loss:
- For a buy position, set the stop loss below the lower shadow of the pin-bar minus the spread average.
- For a sell position, set the stop loss above the upper shadow of the pin-bar plus the average spread.
Taking profits:
Personally I would close the position when the next bar (after the pin-bar) closes.
