since many years I`m trading using simply Stochastic indicator on the multiple time frames.
Clean Stochastic is very powerful and in my opinion could generate extremely good signals a specially if You are using signals from multiple time frames.
Most of the people waiting for a moment when Stochastic KPeriod and DPeriod will cross. My solution is different.
I`m observing Stoch using distance (in points) between this two values to define the strength of the movement.
If the price is strongly moving up Stoch difference also growing very fast. The best setups are when Stoch difference is (for BUY) higher than 5 or (for SELL) lower than -5.
Some example:
BUY Enter conditions:
1D Stoch difference >= 1
4H Stoch difference >= 2
15MIN Stoch difference >= 5
BUY Exit conditions:
Buy trades I`m closing usually when Stoch difference is going in opposite direction.
I just opened SELL trade using this strategy:
1D Stoch difference >= 0 (this is low prio signal)
4H Stoch difference <= 0 in this case -2
and 15Min Stoch Difference <= -5 in this case -6
This kind of trades I`m closing manually with some Stoch difference buffer. Price will change direction on 15M when Stoch difference will be higher than 0 (at 0 point Stoch will cross). I`m giving my trade (depends on the market conditions) some buffer, so this SELL trade I will close when Stoch difference will be between 0.80 - 4.00.
If You see high value of Stoch Difference I mean something higher than (for buy) 10 or (for sell) -10 ->>>> then it means that price is strongly moving up or down.
I would like to ask You (or some other colleagues) to create some simple Stoch Difference indicator for TDesk. This solution is really powerful a specially if You are swing trader or scalper. Using Stoch Difference You can easily define where exactly is price and how fast is moving.
Please take a look on that example:
1D Stoch difference higher than 5 (7,52)
4H Stoch difference is minus -2.23 - it seems that price is in some retracement in 4h chart
1H Stoch difference is lower than 5 but not lower than 0
Here I`m using some kind of time trade correlation (I dont know how to explain in english). When I`m trading 1H chart then I`m always checking 1D Stoch difference. When I`m trading 15Min chart then Stoch difference value from 4H chart is important for me.
In this example I will open a Buy trade when Stoch difference on 1H chart will be higher than 5-6 and will follow the price till moment when price will start to return (Stoch difference something between 0 and -2)
I really would like to see three up(or down) arrows with Stoch difference value in TDesk
I hope that You like this idea. This is my money maker
(sorry for my weak english)
Cheers
