The Simplest Scalping Strategy With 3 EMA's For 20 Pips Per Day

Moving Average Trading Strategy
This moving average trading strategy uses the EMA, because this type of average is designed to respond quickly to price changes. Here are the strategy steps....

- Plot three exponential moving averages—a five-period EMA, a 20-period EMA, and 50-period EMA—on a 15-minute chart.
- Buy when the five-period EMA crosses from below to above the 20-period EMA, and the price, five, and 20-period EMAs are above the 50 EMA.
- For a sell trade, sell when the five-period EMA crosses from above to below the 20-period EMA, and both EMAs and the price are below the 50-period EMA.
- Place the initial stop-loss order below the 20-period EMA (for a buy trade), or alternatively about 10 pips from the entry price.
- An optional step is to move the stop-loss to break even when the trade is 10 pips profitable.
- Consider placing a profit target of 20 pips, or alternatively exit when the five-period falls below the 20-period if long, or when the five moves above the 20 when short.
