On Tradingview 1 hr chart for VET. I used indicators BB set 21, RSI set 8, Vol>2M
Buy: price < 3.5% below BB, RSI < 30, Vol > 2,000,000
Sell Target: price > 3.5% above BB, RSI > 70, Vol > 2,000,000
Stop Loss: price < 5% lower then Buy price
I played with RSI setting to get better confirmation. Plus I just like Fib numbers.

ETHUSD 15m sideways within a range:

  • Long - when you see a reversal of the downtrend and take profit near the resistance level. Update your SL as we climb up.
  • Short - when we reach the peak and start going down until the support level
    Compare lower timeframes to predict the reversals

In the last week Chain link has had 3ea tops in the 24.00 range and 3ea bottoms in the 22.00 range , will place a limit order @22.00 with a trailing stop loss of 6%
If it peaks again in the 24.00 range a small profit will be realized while protecting capital.
The trailing stop loss will allow for larger upside potential while capping the downside @6%

An Idea:
Using STOCHASTIC
A combination between the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence).

  • closing price minus the low of the closing price divide by the value of the candle and multiply by 100
  • 3 Period moving averages
    Whether a market is overbought or oversold. Trying to look for a signal when there is a potential turning point in the short term.

My strategy is to use the EMA 20 close, EMA 55 close and the RSI on litecoin 5 minutes.
When the EMA 20 close goes below the EMA 55 close a buy order at market limit will be put when the RSI is above 71 a sell order at market price will be set. an Stop loss order will be set at 5% under the buy order.

At the moment ETH is consolidating so between 1645 and 1607. I am going to put long trigger on 1660 and short trigger on 1592.
If going long on 1660: TP:1700 SL: 1650
If going short on 1592: TP: 1545, SL: 1607

when bitcoin does something like a head and shoulders: bitcoin goes up, then comes back down about 70-95% then comes about 20-30% higher up than the last hump, then falls back down to a now calculated support, then comfirms support, then coms up 20-30% les than the previous hump, then tests the support, then breaks it, (alot of stuff, i know,)then we put a short and make a take profit lavel when we come to the gap pric of bitcoin when it did the head. and vise virsa!

there is something i can see clearly on the ETH/USDT chart: the support line is going higher and higher and i love it !!!

So far I came up with a simple idea of buying at support level and selling on resistance in an upward trend, setting the stoploss slightly below support.

I really like buying on a juicy red candle with a tight stop loss and setting a trailing stop that is triggered at a point that will set the trailing stop to at least $1 above my entry point, then deleting the original stop loss. No way to lose money unless you are completely wrong from the start. Sometimes you get stopped out earlier than desired, keeping you from those real juicy gains, but at least you don’t lose.

I am a novice trader (actually just a buy and HODL kinda gal). I wait for ETH to hit ATHs then wait a little longer for the dump and then buy, usually around 3-4am, I don’t always hit the lowest lows but I generally get it on a down candle.

A long time ago idea I had regarding algorithmic trading was to combine simple indicators, like MACD, RSI, Moving averages, OBV in one single signal for buy and sell. Having taken this course I hope by the end I will be able to put into practice and backtest it.

When macd is starting to cross up, volume increasing and rsi showing oversold go long, when macd starting to go down, volume decreasing and indicator showing overbought go short.
