About the strategy:
The heart of this strategy is to combine a lot of technical indicators to try to make profit at every moment, even if the market is bearing by buying low and selling high !
The author of the strategy even developed a personal technical indicator to analyse short/medium and long term trends on the market.
This very elaborated strategy relies inter alia on :
- Bollinger Bands : which are a volatility indicator used to measure the “highness” or “lowness” of the price relative to previous trades ;
- A complex stoploss mechanism with a differential trigger ;
- An automatically updated profit objective that follows the market trend ;
- and much more …
