30-Minute Candle Trading Strategy This strategy works on a 30-minute candle timeframe. When a new 30-minute candle opens, the following actions will take place based on the previous 30-minute candle's closing price:
Buy Trade Setup:
If the market opens above the previous 30-minute candle's closing price, a buy trade will be executed immediately at the market price. The stop-loss will be set at the previous 30-minute candle's closing price. There will be no fixed target. The trade will be closed 1 minute before the current 30-minute candle closes, regardless of profit or loss. Sell Trade Setup:
If a buy trade hits the stop-loss and the market moves below the previous 30-minute candle's closing price, a sell trade will be executed immediately at the market price. The stop-loss for the sell trade will also be set at the previous 30-minute candle's closing price. There will be no fixed target. The trade will be closed 1 minute before the current 30-minute candle closes, regardless of profit or loss. Procedure:
This process will repeat for every 30-minute candle. If the market crosses the previous 30-minute candle's closing price to the upside, a buy trade will be executed, and the stop-loss will be set at the previous candle's closing price. If the market crosses the previous 30-minute candle's closing price to the downside, a sell trade will be executed, and the stop-loss will also be set at the previous candle's closing price. Each trade will be closed 1 minute before the current candle closes. Key Points:
This strategy applies to every new 30-minute candle. The stop-loss will always be based on the previous 30-minute candle's closing price. If a stop-loss is hit, the strategy will automatically switch to the opposite trade (buy to sell or sell to buy) based on market movement crossing the previous candle's closing price. This is a repetitive and systematic approach to trading, ensuring the rules are followed for every 30-minute candle.
