System Description
A trade is entered when a previous swing high or low is broken, backed by a momentum-based indicator which describes the strength of price direction. Each trade always has a stop-loss at the previous swing high/low, always.
Each trade will always use 0.5% to 1% of equity, no more. There are two profit targets. The first target (which is half the distance between the entry level and the stop-loss) will have the profit being partially closed (70%), then the second target will close the rest of the remaining profit. For the exit strategy, the position (regardless if it is profitable or losing) is always closed when three EMAs cross in the other direction. Up to four open trades are limited at any time.
Risk management is key in here. This system does not have a high win-loss ratio, but is profitable due to the fact profits are allowed to run. It often shows a losing streak which is of course attributable to the unpredictable nature of the market, but losses are always cut short.
