forex and commodities trading: Forex Strategy: St Patterns Trading Manual, Eur/Usd Chart Analysis Step by Step, 300% for One Month Vladimir Poltoratskiy, 2018-08-21 The ST Patterns Trading Manual will provide a detailed hourly technical analysis using EUR/USD pairs for May 2017. Calculations of the results are performed based on the actual results without rounding off. The strategy shows a good technical result for the EUR/USD pair in May--equal to about 300% of the initial deposit. The study of the GBP/USD pair will help readers understand the importance of determining periods of market uncertainty in a timely fashion.To demonstrate the flexibility of the strategy settings and the formation of short-term uncertainty periods, the EUR/USD pair is shown on five-minute charts in one working day on May 31. For nine hours of work, the result was approximately + 82% of the initial deposit.The month following the first book's «Trading Code is Open: ST Patterns of the Forex and Futures Exchanges» publication perfectly demonstrated the possibilities of using the trading system and showed how almost half of the ST Patterns published in this book operate in practice. The analysis, based on accurate calculations, will help traders consolidate the acquired knowledge, and to increase their own skills with Structural Target Patterns.Over the 18 years I have spent researching dozens of well-known, as well as not so famous, trading systems, I have not found any that could demonstrate anything near the results obtained by the ST Patterns trading method during this arbitrarily chosen time interval. The trading of the EUR/USD currency pair is given as the main example in this book. But the algorithm for this trading, detailed in this book, is also applicable to other currency pairs. The ST Trading Strategy is also profitable in the Futures, Indices, Commodities and other liquid markets. Millions of traders are trying to find an effective technical method for analyzing the movement of exchange charts. Now it has arrived! Note: This book (ISBN: 1719837996). is with a color interior. You can also buy a book (ISBN: 171986005X) with black & white interior. |
