Mikhail Trader Strategies
This strategy only utilizes two indicators, Bollinger Bands (BB), with
different parameter settings for their deviations. The first BB indicator is
set to default settings, which are period 20 and deviation 1. Meanwhile,
the second BB is set to period 20 and deviation 2. The appearance will
look like the following image
To generate a buy signal, you should wait for the closing price of 2
consecutive candlesticks to be above the upper band of the BB with
deviation 1 and not exceed the upper band of the BB with deviation 2. This
condition indicates market participants agreeing to continue the uptrend
after a prior consolidation.
In the chart above, it is evident that the closing price of candlestick 3 is
above the upper band of the BB indicator with deviation 1 (in red), and the
closing prices of the two preceding candlesticks (1 and 2) are above the
BB with deviation 1 but do not exceed the BB with deviation 2. If such a
condition occurs, you can open a buy position at the opening price of
candlestick 3.
In the chart above, it is evident that the closing price of candlestick 3 is
below the lower band of the BB indicator with deviation 1, and the closing
prices of the two preceding candlesticks (1 and 2) are below lower band
the BB with deviation 1 but do not exceed the BB with deviation 2. If such
a condition occurs, you can open a sell position at the opening price of
candlestick 3.
THE SNIPER ENTRY STRATEGY
To use this strategy, you don't need to use any indicators because this
strategy solely relies on the break and retest technique in a market
You can see that the market above is currently at a resistance level, and
there's a candle that 'breaks' and closes above the breached resistance
level. The next candle forms a pullback to the previously breached
resistance level and closes above it, now resistance level functioning as a
support level. When this happens, you can open a buy position on the
candle following the one that initiated the break.
