Long Set Up

  • The candlestick marked with the down arrow shows the area when the 40 EMA is already above 80 EMA.
  • We then wait for CCI to rise above 0, which is marked by the up arrow in the CCI indicator window
  • A long entry is placed at the high of the candlestick, with stop loss placed at the low just prior to the EMA cross over.
  • Take profit is a trailing stop near the 40 EMA
  • The above trade gave a very good 70 pip risk with a 292 pip profit.

Short Set Up

  • After the 40 EMA falls below the 80 EMA we then wait for the CCI to fall below 0 line
  • After CCI falls below the 0-line a short position is taken with stops just near the recent high
  • Take profit is trailed along the 40 EMA, which in this case resulted in a quick 39 pip profit
