In this video, we delve into the crucial concept of triggering into a trade. If you've been following our previous episodes, you're familiar with combining trading strategies like trend analysis, deeper retracements, and identifying support and resistance levels. But the question remains: how do we effectively enter a trade when these levels are respected?
Join me as I walk you through the process of selecting the right trigger to confidently enter a trade. We'll use a gold chart as our example, examining a weekly uptrend with significant pullbacks to a well-tested support level. I'll show you how to zoom in on a 15-minute chart to identify potential entry points.
You'll learn:
- How to recognise a respected support level.
- The importance of a trend line break as a trigger.
- Using MACD for confirmation to smooth out price movements.
- Combining multiple indicators to create a robust entry strategy.
We'll also explore another example using the EUR/USD pair to illustrate how these principles apply across different markets. By the end of this video, you'll have a clear understanding of how to identify and use trade triggers to enhance your trading strategy.
