Trading rules

80 EMA indicates a major trend direction. When the price goes above 80 EMA, it implies an

uptrend and if it goes opposite – downtrend.

• 21 EMA and 13 EMA give us a current trend direction.

• While 13 EMA stays above 21 EMA – uptrend occurs.

• If 13 EMA stays below 21 EMA – downtrend

• RSI (21) value is above 50 suggest an uptrend, below – downtrend

Entry Rules for long trade

Stop loss

Stop loss = 20 – 30 pips… depending on the volatility of the currency pair. For more volatile pair, like GBP/USD, stop loss = 30 pips. For less volatile pair, like EUR/USD, use stop loss of 20 pips. Next, I am going to show you a few sample trades to help you understand more clearly how to use this system
