What indicators do you use?
My favorite trading strategy is Swing trading. I use MT4. I use candle stick. I use RSI indicator.
i used combo : Double Bollinger Bands , 3 level zz semafor and Murrey math time frame.
Great to hear about new ideas – 3 level zz semafor – that sounds impressive what is it? never heard of that before
The 3 Level ZZ Semafor forex indicator for Metatrader 4 is a sort of zigzag indicator.
It looks for high and low prices in the trend and then marks them with 1 (short-term), 2 (medium-term) or 3 (long-term).
Number 3 is the most important Semafor level to keep an eye on.
This indicator can’t be used as a standalone. Instead, use it together with a trend following indicator such as an exponential moving average with period set at 75 or 100.
Trade in the direction of the underlying trend.
The default ZZ Semafor period settings (5, 13, 34) can be changed from the indicator’s inputs tab.
Bollinger Band breakout supported with confirmation candlestick assisted by MACD and RSI
I do not have a favourite strategy at present and at present I am trying to learn how to use Bollinger Bands. I am learning and trying to apply the theory behind using Bollinger Bands.
My favourite and most consistent is support and resistance for smaller timeframes and supply and demand for higher timeframes. I sometimes use the bollinger band strategy but haven’t quite mastered it.
My preferred method is swing trading based on trend analysis. I plot trend lines on 1 month charts and watch the price action within the uptrend or downtrend to be able to take positions. If the price hit the resistance and retraced I take a short position, but if hits the support and and as retraced I take a long position. How where there is a breakout and resistance turned to support, I take a long position. When it is the other way round, support turned resistance, take a short position. It takes a lot of patience.
Hi Christopher,
Swing trading is used by many pro trader, now my question is money management. Normally, entry with small time frame , less risky compared to big time frame. stop loss and trailing stop loss. if the trend is strong make bigger profit. if not then need to exits and profit taking. But how to hold for bigger profit and not to stop out if the market is very volatile?
I normally start off with a bare chart to identify any obvious trends and patterns. Then I\’ll be in a position to recognize any support or resistance levels. If nothing is easily identified or confirmation is needed, then I use Bollinger Bands and the RSI or the MACD. Sometimes I also employ Fibonacci.
When I first came into contact with foreign exchange trading, I joined a teacher\’s online course on the Internet. He pursued the Price Action Strategy. Except for the 8/21 EMA as an aid to dynamic S/R, no other indicators were used. For a beginner, it is too difficult for price action to find trading opportunities.
now I try my own strategy : multiple time frame price chart, 8/21 EMA, MACD line/Signal Line, RSI(5)
double bollinger bands and candlesticks and support and resistance
I preferred candles stick price action .
Support and resistance break out (horizontal and trend lines ).
After reading articles on luckScout.com ,I’m trying bollinger bands strategy with stronger trade setup, like bearish engulfing pattern, bullish engulfing, double top etc…

My favorite is Bollinger band and candle stick
My trading strategy uses a technical anysis approache to take profits from the forex market. I use indicators such as; MACD, Stochastic, Moving averages in combination with particular price action patterns (doji, engulfing & other reversal candlestick formation) to decide entry and well as exit from the trade.
