Nice trade on NU earlier {image}
Nice idea. Clearly need some filtering. I would suggest ADX. The + and - signals are quick and reliable. Forget the master signal.

But this is the Magic100 forum and we cannot discuss that here. I will look into your idea and if I find it useable I will PM you. I can make a robot in a few minutes.
MetaTrader 4 - so many advantages.

You’re right. Let’s not clutter this thread. I will start a new thread for the 5EMA system specifically and will await your robot

I said I will look into it. I need to think that it is worth the effort. :-) I will play a little with it in this weekend.

yes, but make sure you follow the original strategy by the Minotawr using 1:3 Risk reward on hourly chart when the market is trending, i think he died from Covid few years back(god bless his soul) . The other posters here are adding filters to his simple strat by adding indicators or some market structure nonsense, none of these people are profitable that's why they keep changing and hopping to different strats, so it is best to ignore them.

Aren't you getting lot of losses when the trend is ended but the MA still saying uptrend for example?
Did you find a solution to that issue?
Usually they say MA are lagging indicator.
Let me know your opinion.
Thanks

Yes, very much so. Retail traders and hedge funds, too.

You just need to read the last 3 pages, from this post to the end (and ignore completely the post of "NateBerok" just above this one: he is totally wrong!)

They do, rightly. In this type of system, it's not being used to time the entries, just for directional bias.

there is no solution you can't avoid getting series of losses in trading, that's why these other posters are tweaking the system

If you rely solely on MA to determine optimal entry conditions you will not be profitable…

the core concept is great though, and I think that’s why so many traders are drawn to it.

Hi quickly, I must say that you were right about the risk to reward. Thanks for your contributions in thread.
I just wanted to ask, what is the average win-rate with 1:1? My backtest show something around 60-65%. I wanted to get an correct mindset about the strategy.
Thanks

Presently back testing it on demo. Apparently, it holds some promise.
