My Forex System

This is my Forex System.

Wins and Losses will be updated once a week.

I basically use moving averages to trade with my system

This is my setup

Weigted Moving Average (WMA) : 100 RED

Simple Moving Average (SMA) : 15 ORANGE

Exponential Moving Average (EMA) : 3 GREEN

Chart: 15 min (Intraday) or 4H (Daily)

Rules of the trade:

Go Long when:

EMA crosses above WMA

Go Short when:

EMA crosses below WMA

Take Profit when:

EMA crosses SMA. This is a sign that the current trend is turning in the opposite direction.

Stop Loss: This is where you can make the system your own. If I am doing day trade, I place my stop loss at the mid-point of the previous candle. Intra-day trading, I just let the profit run until the EMA crosses the SMA.

Example1 :

Go Short

EMA crosses below WMA and candle closes below WMA

I place a sell order on the next candle open at 1.5633

EMA crosses SMA signalling reversal of short term current downtrend



I take profit at open of next candle at 1.5550

Profit: 1.5633-1.5550=83 pips


Example 2: Go Long

EMA crosses above WMA and candle closes above WMA

I place a buy order on the next candle open at 1.5595

EMA crosses SMA signalling reversal of short term current uptrend

I take profit at open of next candle at 1.5647

Profit: 1.5647-1.5595=52 pips
