This forex strategy is extremely accurate. Simplicity is key here. Trend identification is done by one of the most used forex indicator- RSI (Relative strength index), which is also used for entry timing (different settings applied).
Timeframe on chart: 1 Hour
Forex strategy can be used on: EURUSD, GBPUSD or any other currency pair with reasonable spread.
Forex indicators: Fast RSI (Relative strength index) with period 2, placed over slower RSI (period 12). For best visibility and function apply both indicators in one MT4 window under you currency chart.
Make sure to distinguish two indicators in the window. Make it neat and readable. In default, RSI indicator comes with two marked lines – 70 and 30. Add another two with value 55 and 45.
