Indicator signals
The QQE of RSIOMA indicator is used for trend trading, that is, to open a certain trade, the current market movement should be taken into account. To do this, it is necessary to take into account the general direction of the lines, the sequence of their intersections, and finding them relative to three signal levels. And if the desired combination of conditions coincides on a certain candle characterizing an uptrend, a long position can be opened, and if the trend is down, a short position can be opened.
Signal for Buy trades:
- The indicator lines are in the uptrend zone and move up. At the same time, they are arranged in the following order: the main QQE line is above two signal lines, the fast one is above the slow one.
- The signal candle must close above the overbought level.
Upon receipt of such conditions, a buy trade may be opened on the signal candle, due to the presence of an uptrend in the market. The trade should be closed immediately after the reverse intersection of the indicator lines, at the same time as the market location changes in the rising zone. This will indicate a change in the current trend, which will allow consider opening new deals during this period.
Signal for Sell trades:
- The indicator lines move down and are located in the zone of downward movement. At the same time, the slow signal is higher than the fast one, which in turn is higher than the main QQE.
- The signal candle must be below the oversold level.
A sell trade can be opened immediately after receiving conditions that characterize a downtrend in the market. It is recommended to close the trade after changing the zone and direction of the indicator lines, or when they cross back. At this moment, it should prepared for a change in the current trend and opening new trades in its direction.
Conclusion
The QQE of RSIOMA indicator is a very efficient and accurate trading algorithm, thanks to which trades can be opened in the direction with the current trend. However, for profitable trading, it should be taken into account all the indicator conditions and wait for the full combination of conditions from the indicator. To obtain the necessary trading skills and gain sufficient experience, it is needed preliminary practice on a demo account.
