HI EDWARD, THANKS FOR THE JOB DONE SO FAR,PLEASE I WANT TO ASK CONCERNING THE ACTIVATION OF TRAIL STOP, CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHERE TRAIL STOPS START TO COUNT ,IS IT AT THE ALREADY ACTIVATED STOP LOSS OR AT THE EXECUTED PRICE? PLEASE EXPLAIN WELL WITH DEMONSTRATIONS.

Initial Stop is activated immediately once the trade is open. The stop is placed at the closest swing high/low.

Trailing stop is activated when Stochastic gets to 70 mark (uptrend) / 30 mark (downtrend). It requires moving the initial Stop loss to the previous price bar high (downtrend) / low (uptrend).

Trailing stop tools at brokers' trading platforms won't do the job.
You need to trail your stop by hands every day by moving it (as on the picture) below the previous day low.

Regards,
Edward.

To set initial Profit target, look back at market waves, find major support / resistance levels - those are the tops and bottoms of the waves - and set your Profit target at those levels.

Then later you may exit with Stochastic cross (option #1 in the system).

Actually, we have recently discussed with my team that if Stochastic cross happened too soon and you feel that you can stay in the trade further, try adding some EMAs, for example, 10 and 20, or 20 and 35, or 20 and 50... plan exit on the cross of two EMAs.

Hi Edward,
I have looked at Eur/Usd and Gbp/Usd daily, and noticed a lot of following scenarios, where rsi goes under 20, and Stochastic is under 30, However when Stochastic crosses, rsi is already over 30. So with your statement: "Entry for uptrend: when the price is above 150 SMA look for RSI to plunge below 20. Then look at Stochastic - once the Stochastic lines crossover occur and it is (must be) below 30 - enter Long with a new price bar.", I was not really clear if we could take such a trade, or both rsi and stochastic have to be under 20/30.

Thank you

Erni

Hi Erni,

I see where your question is.
You don't need both Stochastic and RSI to be under 20/30 at the moment of entry. You just make notes of the facts as they occur, something like this:
- the price is above 150 SMA - check!
- RSI went below 20 - check! (here you leave RSI, it does not matter if it's above 20 by the time Stochastic gets to the check point. Leave it and move on to Stochastic)
- Stochastic cross below 30 - check!
Everything is in place, time to enter with a new candle open.

Best regards,
Edward.

Edward,
thank you. I will try to use this on some not majors pairs like gbp/jpy etc... Anybody tried on those yet?
Looking on some majors, you really do not have a lot of opportunities for trading. Sometimes you have to wait up to 2 months to actually get into a setup. That is a reason I want to try on some not major pairs.
