Super Bounce20 Forex Trading Strategy - Another free forex trading system that works
Posted by Bossxero Wednesday, September 16, 2009
I am delighted to present to you the Super Bounce20 Trading System. A really cool trading method which corrects one of the most notorious weakness of 99% other trading systems which is nothing but 'Late Entries' in your trades. For any system which uses indicators to generate trade signals, there is always the problem of 'late entries' associated with them. Hopefully, this trading system, which is not a new one and which does not use fancy indicators etc, is here to correct this problem. If you have been neglecting the problem of late entries till now, please take some time to read this separate post which talks about this particular problem and how it affects one trading system, so drastically that it can turn a winning system into a losing one. I suggest you read this post which I wrote about this problem. Follow this link please.
Now, after the overview, let me talk about the Super Bounce20 Trading System. The system consists of only 2 indicators, the MACD which is the primary indicator and the Simple Moving Average(SMA) which is our secondary indicator, we use 2 moving averages in our system.
Setup your charts as follows:
Open your chart to any timeframe (M15 and above preferred)
Place the MACD indicator on the chart with the default settings
Place a Simple Moving Average, color BLUE and Period 20 on close
Place another Simple Moving Average, color RED and Period 5 on close
If you want to go quicker, download the template at the end of this post and apply it on your metatrader chart. You won't be having to place the indicators manually one by one.
The signal generation method of this trading system is in three steps and I will be writing on each steps in details here. I will also post a screenshot at the end as well as some trade examples so that everything written could be summarized in these screenshots. You should read the text again and refer to the picture so that you can get a clearer idea of the system. A picture is worth a thousand words but we still need the words...
Step 1 - MACD gives the early signal
The MACD is the first to give a signal in this trading system. We will take a BUY example for all the explanation and for the sell, you just have to reverse and do the opposite. This is not rocket science for anyone to do. So, in order to generate a valid BUY setup, the MACD needs to be below 0 line... Let me number the process for you
MACD should be below 0 line
MACD histogram (bar) should start moving away from the Signal Line(RED), therefore start to decrease in height.
Look at the following screenshot to get the pictorial meaning of what I am saying.

Pretty easy I guess...Anyone can spot this on any chart and as I am saying it again, it is not rocket science to do that. For a SELL situation, you just have to reverse the RULES which is, MACD should already be above the 0 line and the MACD bar(histogram) should start moving away from the red signal line and decreasing.
As we have seen, this is the very first signal for this trading method and we should not be looking at anything else unless the MACD give us the permission by showing the very first signal. Now we move to the next step.
Step 2 - The BOUNCE on the SMA 20
After we have a valid first signal from the MACD, its a go to look for the next signal in order to determine our trade signal and decision. Now we look at the price (candlesticks or bar chart) closely... You should notice that as soon as MACD will give the first signal, price will start to move into that direction.... In our example, price start to move up BUT... it should BOUNCE off the SMA 20 (BLUE) and retrace a little downward... This BOUNCE is out 2nd signal... Look at the screenshot for a better idea on this
As you can see above, after the MACD gave the first signal, the price started going up but when it went past the SMA20, it stops and reverse a little... This is called a bounce... We can say that price bounced off the SMA20... This will be our second signal and we have a final step which is the entry... Please note that for a SELL situation, price would try to go down and bounce on the SMA20, then go up a little before going down again... Lets look at our last step now
Final Step - The entry
After price has successfully bounced off the SMA 20(blue), we can see that is is going in the opposite direction for a while and it is called a retracement. Now we wait for the price to go past the SMA 5(RED)... When the price goes past it and closes below the SMA 5, we open our position at this close... Sometimes price will not close beyond the SMA 5 and will just make a shoot(candlestick tail), we can enter on a shoot as well. This final step is our entry. So, let us look at all these three steps on a single screenshot, please observe closely.
As you can see above, all the rules has been summed up in this picture and the steps are well illustrated and numbered. Again, please keep in mind that we are taking a BUY signal as example and for a SELL, you just have to reverse the rules and do the opposite. I cannot write so much on the SELL as well because it is too easy to figure out.
Final Words

ReplyDeleteHey Everyone,
ReplyDelete"Which Forex pair and time frame is best to trade" is the frequently asked question and I want do give you the EXPLICIT ANSWER in this comment.
Are you expecting that I am going to say something like EUR/USD on 15-minute time frame or GBP/USD on daily...? No, it is not so simple, but SIMPLE ENOUGH we can figure it out!
The "PROBLEM" is that markets change over time. If EUR/USD was a well trending currency pair a few years ago, today it is another one.
