Concept: Short term momentum pattern with a trend filter
Setup: It can be observed on charts that when a candle cuts an important support or resistance level a good move follows on the side of the breakout. The extent of the breakout differs from candle to candle, however the move on break from the support/resistance level to its new pivot point is large enough to be considered as a potential profit.
Challenge: 1. Waiting for end of the day to initiate or exit a trade can put the account at a great risk if you are trapped on the wrong side of the move 2. Lowering the timeframe will lead to a. whipsaws (too many failed signals) b. active time and efforts (time spent on trading signals vs. productive work) c. slippages (execution delays and spread) d. charges (higher number of transactions)
Expectation: We need a system which is relatively painless from the perspective of • time invested (return on time invested) • money spent on stock trading charges • conservative when in losses and aggressive when it comes to letting profits run
