Oscillator Based Scalping (Forex Majors)

22 янв. 2019 г.

This is a scalping strategy based on oscillator divergences.
Tested on ForexICE market data.

Signal might appear and disappear during candle making since it is based on Moving Average and therefore acts on close, but since candle closed signal is final and does not repaint.
1M timeframes is recommended for bot trading. 5M-15M is more suitable for manual trading.


Full list of tested intraday timeframes below:
EUR-USD - 1M-5M-15M
USD-JPY - 1M-5M
GBP-USD - 1M
AUD-USD - 1M-5M-15M
USD-CHF - 1M-15M
NZD-USD - 1M-5M-15M
USD-CAD - 1M-5M


There is 2 more similar trading strategies that im finishing now, 1 for BITMEX ETHUSD and XBTUSD contracts, and 1 for bitmex alts. Should be ready in a day or two.

Additional notes on executing trades:
-Trade should be entered as close to sell signal as possible. You can enter at market at red circle candle or at limit at top of sell signal candle. In both cases your target is red Moving Average and entering at market just makes overall R/R for a trade is lower yet limit order might not always get filled.

-This strategy doesnt have a defined stop loss by itself, but your target is a moving average and 1-1 risk reward should be enough. Although the win rate is much higher than 50% so you can be less greedy if you feel like playing it safer.
-Strategy itself uses pyramiding, so i would recommend averaging up if you get 2-3 consecutive sell signals above moving average.
-It is assumed that you have OANDA spread rates or better.
