I'm publishing this trading strategy (which is not a secret, considering that I draw my inspiration from this method which was originally presented on stockcharts.com). While this method is almost mechanical, applying a bit of common sense makes this method very interesting to at the very least explore.
The above example is of the SPX with examples given on the chart.
Trading Rules:
Long when
1) price is above or revisits SMA 150 (revisits/retraces from above)
2) Stochs move above 20
3) MACD Histogram crosses above 0-line
Buy at the high of the candle when both Stochs & MACD are above 20 and 0-line
Stops at recent swing low
Target is kept open as we trail the stops
Be alert when stochs drop below 80 and macd crosses below 0-line. Either price is making a correction or a change is underway.
Works best on:
Strongly trending markets
Reverse rules for short positions
Be extra cautious when SMA is flat or when you notice choppy price action
Do pay attention to fundamentals
