ENTRY RULES:

ONLY TRADE IN THE DIRECTION OF THE EMA(20). Never try anything else. This will keep you in the money and sane, with no stress.

Trading Method 1:

Long Entries:

1. The EMA(20) - the coloured line - must be going UP. Colour = BLUE

2. The EMA(5) - the black line - must have gone UP at least 2 Bars or more.

3. The Setup bar LOW must be LESS than or touching the EMA(5) and the Setup bar HIGH must be greater than the EMA(20).

4. From the Setup bar, count 5 bars backwards including the setup bar.

5. ENTER the trade 1 tick/pip above the Highest High of the 5 bars.

6. Confirm that ForceIndex = BLUE


SHORT Entries:

1. The EMA(20) - the coloured line - must be going DOWN. Colour = RED

2. The EMA(5) - the black line - must have gone DOWN at least 2 Bars or more.

3. The Setup bar HIGH must be GREATER than or touching the EMA(5) and the Setup bar LOW must be less than the EMA(20).

4. From the Setup bar, count 5 bars backwards including the setup bar.

5. ENTER the trade 1 tick/pip below the Lowest Low of the 5 bars.

6. Confirm that ForceIndex = RED



To start out I would recommend using a 2 or 3 range chart because your stops can be very small. I would then recommend trading 2 contracts, with a proft target of 4 ticks for the first contract, and a 8 tick profit for the second contract. A total of 12. Your SL can then be 4 ticks. When the first target is reached, put SL to BE less 2 ticks. All this can be put into an ATM strategy. A trade like this can give you $150. A few of these a day can be good trading. Later on if your account grows you can put 4 or 6 contracts, and take less trades.

Not sure , but you may be looking at adx wrong? A good signal on adx is when it is green regardless of short or long. Not looking for red/red in case of short so big drop around 11:10 it was lined up. force=red and adx=green is lined up. Is that what you meant?

Thank you very much Stifland for your clarification without which I would always think the ADX "green" on Perry's set-up for Short was an inadvertent typo .. sorry!

The ES had more Entries then you can beleive. I noted 6 entries, each with a 12 tick profit .i.e. 72 tick for the day.

Now that I have said all that, watch for the next posts with updated info.

Thanks to Perry and Stifland, I now understand that Green on ADX is good for entry (both long and short).

My heartfelt thanks to Perry for sharing more set-up. We all stay tuned to them .. smile ..

Hi Perry

I went through the Elite Download section and am unable to locate the following indicator:

JeffsUniversalMovingAverage

I tried 2 filter searches, ie Jeff and MA. Hmm, it's hiding from me. Will it be available from Jeff's new CCI thread? Appreciate more direction please. Thanks Perry!

Beth

Please DISREGARD the above request, I just located the indicator from the following thread Post #1:

Here is an update to the DM indicator. Background colors are now available and are user selectable. Alerts are also available, both audio and in the Alert Window (shows which chart alert is from). Dan

Also - alerts are untested because I haven't run this through Market Replay.

Is this using method 1 or method 2?
