Pivot Trading

Look how nicely it prevented to take a loser on UC.Even though its at 100R PA and price did not clear 21 MA
You did not take the potential loser.That's the whole idea eliminating early trades.
This is nothing new but its effective.

Interesting Davit. I post charts on here for years that meet the specification you've put in place from MT4. However the charts I trade from on my Professional Trading Platform appear a lot different. So I'll take the Liberty and spill the beans to post a chart some of its proprietary so you can't get it on MT4 however I can show you a way I figured out to duplicate it as close as you can on MT4. I use an 8 EMA white line 21 EMA Red line 50 EMA Blue 200 SMA Keltner Bands and Bollinger Bands. Also the proprietary signal I use which has the Red Arrows generated is the Bulls N Bears which has its formula based upon Fibonacci. The reason I have the Keltner Bands Yellow and the Bollinger Bands on the chart is I can select different modes for the Bulls n Bears and use them to work with the bands. I find my best setups are with bulls n bears red arrows matching with ma arrows along pivot zones. I use zig zag, and volume side bars as well on the bottom I have RSI and Stochastic. MY pivot points are standard I can have Daily, Weekly, and Monthly. I have been using some of these settings on Ma's on Stocks for close to 20 years now. It allows me at a quick glance when I go into longer time frames to see where something is at. My price bars have 3 different colors which the Fibonacci based program changes the colors on Green is up Yellow is Neutral and Red is down. This market is wild right now some of my best setups come when the red fib arrows and the green Ma arrows line up or are within a couple of bars of each other.

Hi friend if its working for you for 20yrs why change it! I like the simplicity of "less is more" Pivot+MA rest are Pa and Events.
I played both BB and envelops and did not suit me.In fact had a journal with BB on my charts 5yrs ago.
Keeping is simple.Thank you for your feedback though.

CAD crashing I bet everything is gonna cost more up there.I remember in 2015 highs people could not afford simple vegies
In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time
Mt4 I set the price bars to Heikin-Ashi and turn the PSAR on and set it as displayed this allows me to identify certain patterns like very often you'll see a 3 drive up pattern followed by a reversal. As for MA's the most powerfully setup I've found on average is 8 and 21 EMA I like to have 50 and 200 on just for reference. With my platform I can also tune any pair by backtesting it over a timeframe and determine if that pair has a better set of MA's that work for it. As most traders know about the Golden and Black Death crosses so I like to be aware of them. The gentleman that created the platform that I trade from has a wealth of free videos on youtube many of them quite educational for traders here's a link to the youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJK...40G2TVCU0cbHuw

Agreed it has to be kept simple and you have to have a universal system so everyone is on the same page otherwise you have a shit show of charts on that make no sense. This is what my first charts looked like before PC's I used to read the Globe &Mail or the Financial Post look at prices and work off numbers. I'd call the broker and then place a trade. Then it progressed to telebanking where I could actually phone a stock trade in and execute a buy or sell or check on my portfolio value. Only $29.95 commission to buy or sell LOL.

Davit , what has amazed me through all of this is the injection of TRILLIONS of dollars Worldwide into various markets , the "FINANCIAL GURU'S" are arguing about what is correct and incorrect. Icahn said on TV the other day that these people "don't have a clue..." how to handle this.
I have not heard one word from Buffett , not that I would care anyway.
Canada will be decimated , no question. Already well on our way there.
If all businesses and workers were taxed at a reasonable level , in every Country , we wouldn't be in this mess in my opinion.
The people I have the most respect for with respect to money are right here on this thread.
Collectively , I believe that we could operate a debt free World. I guess the Wall Streeter's aren't so smart after all , again. They got it all wrong in every recession which they created.
Boeing needs a bailout , ARE YOU FREAKIN KIDDING ME !!!! FIRE THE BOSSES , KEEP THE EMPLOYEE'S and let them run the Business , they will turn it around within a matter of months.

What is Exponential Moving Average - EMA?
An exponential moving average (EMA) is a type of moving average (MA) that places a greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. The exponential moving average is also referred to as the exponentially weighted moving average. An exponentially weighted moving average reacts more significantly to recent price changes than a simple moving average (SMA), which applies an equal weight to all observations in the period.

EMA puts more weight at present data hence less lagging.There is fine balance we need lag to keep us away from early entry but not too much as miss a trade by wide margin. EMA suits the best.Think of 8EMA as yellow in traffic light and 21 as green or red. 8 is "heads up"
So If price is at R61 and 15 chart price crossed 8EMA heading to 21 I will be all eyes as possible trade option once cleared 21
Simple.Sure as always there will be losers but that's true on all systems.
I like how AN is closing nice.

I am not an economist but I know once you are separated Gold as a peg from money then basically there is no ceiling you can print as much as Feds want because cost will be pass over to next gen and they might pass over to next.Kind of endless debt.
Number is too big anyway can't be repaid in our lifetime or next 500, I suspect in not so distant future we are going to go cryptocurrencies
Another fact is all developing countries have debt and Japan is on top therefore when everyone is printing then you are in the "club" same boat sort of speak why I am not worried about it.If the cards fall all the countries will fall as well.

If you use 2 MAs normally you don't use crosses as reference. Davit want use a kind of strength gauge. It's the most powerful way using MAs. But he want wait pivot + fast MA going to slow MA and maybe wait a cross of both.

Anyway as I use similar approach a few years I can tell you can use fast MA as SL/TP or for see where is pullback limit in a strong trend. Really it's a flexible setup

Sad but true Davit. I was raised in a family where you paid as you go , no debt. I guess it's why I have never understood the concept of passing debt onto future generations.

Will monitor trades for two weeks but so far happy with it. Idea is to focus daily weekly and closed all trades by Friday.Even though I have been anti MA reality is there is nothing else that I like.

The market is the same no different than any other trading day except for the much higher volatility which directly affects the stop loss. Trades require a larger than normal stop loss while the take profit is equally larger. If you use your original sl your trade gets taken out even if you are right. Cost of trades due to larger sl has gone up. This means the trader has to recalibrate his sl in this volatile market.

There are tons of questions to answer when the trader uses MAs.

What MA, SMA, EMA, LWMA, TMA... ?
What parameter, 3,5,12,21,50,100,200... ?
Single MA, dual MA, triple MA, quadruple MA... ?
Price cross MA, MA1 Cross MA2... ?
What does price re-represented by MA(statistical representation) mean?
What's the purpose of re-representing ohlc price with statistical MAs?
What governs the choice of the chosen MA, calibration and usage?
Basically what additional info MAs give that price doesn't?
What additional info the trader seek that can't be found from price?
And so on.....

Mostly MAs are used without proper in-depth research, it's mere optical illusion(looks good to the eye) whether to pull the trigger or not - a psychological crutch.
