DayTradingFutures Cross-Strategy
OVERVIEW
This indicator was designed to help beginners use a cross over strategy that can be used for entries, exits and to for trend direction.
█ COMPONENTS
Here is a brief overview of the indicator:
Weighted Moving Averages
I find that by using a weighted moving average ( WMA ) to show a crossover, is very close to using a MACD signal line cross or using a RSI signal crossing over the 50/Mid Line. In my main strategy, I use the 5period (fast) and with the crossing of the 20period (slow) WMA for entries and the 50period WMA to show the short term trend. Please note, that I use the 50 period for day trading, if you are using a swing trade or plan on holding positions long term, a higher period may be preferred . All of the moving averages are customizable by color, length, and timeframe. **I feel comfortable trading this strategy at the 5min,10min, and 15min charts.
1 — 5 WMA- this is the white moving average closest to price and is the first part of our small cloud.
2 — 20 WMA - this is the yellow moving average and is the second part of or small cloud.
3 — 50 WMA - this is the directional trend.
Moving Average Clouds
The cloud (which is optional) appears when the trader should be looking to go Long or Sell Short. The dividing line is when both the 5 and 20 periods are over the 50 period.
Trade Management
This is a tool to help with setting your stop loss, break even, and target levels. Currently you can set these based on the current ATR ( Average True Range ).
The “Buy” and “Sell” signals are the ATR indicator based on your risk tolerance (fully customizable). Different ticker symbols will require different ATR values, please back test! When applying your stop loss, drag the stop line to small arrow of the signal callout.
Trading Session
The indicator was designed for beginners to trade during the New York Session (08:30 – 16:00 CST). However, the indicator will ONLY show signals AFTER opening and BEFORE close (09:00 – 14:30 CST). The reason for this is that there is greater volatility during the open and I do not recommend to be in a trade at the end of the session.
Buy and Sell Alerts
Alerts can also be set, when an entry can be made. This prevents a person from having to watch the charts for an extended period of time.
Faults of this strategy:
Time of RANGES/CONSOLIDATION periods and EXTREME VOLITITY KILLs this strategy!! Do not trade this strategy during these periods!!
Disclaimer:
NO strategy is 100% effective! I am not responsible for any loss trades or malfunctions of this code. I recommend to paper trade any new strategy before trading with real money! I am not a financial advisor, trading can be very risky!
