Master Point is an indicator set that includes the most powerful and necessary tools for a trader, giving that very edge in the markets to be successful. The indicator has a complex system for analyzing the market for reversal/trend patterns. It has tools such as trend reversal detection, pivot points, divergences, currency strength and 'candle strength'. All this makes the indicator a complete tool that does not require any other indicators!
So it's a powerful and complete system that gives intelligent technical analisys and good trade entry signals.
TIMEFRAMES: SUITABLE FOR M15-H4 || WORKS WITH CURRENCIES, INDEXES, STOCKS, CRYPTOS
Indicator's elements:
1. Signal mark- shows recommedation where to buy or sell.
2. Trend Cloud- shows bullish/bearish trend. The boundaries are used as recommendation for stop-losses.
3. Sar lines- Parabolic Sar line helps to determine an upcoming trend reversal (used for entries, and for closing trades)
4. Signal bar- a special bar (divergence, price action), that confirms a direction of a new trend.
5. Exit label- label that shows a good point for closing trades.
6. Pivot points- support and resistance levels that can used for closing trades.
How to trade:
Depending on a currency and on timeframe, there're mainly three strategies that can be used for good entries
Important. Never enter a trade too late in a trend. Enter only when a new trend has just formed and a new signal has appeared during the first 10 bars of a change trend.
EXAMPLE:
1) You open a trade when the trend cloud changes its color (blue to red and vice versa) and Sar becomes bullish/bearish. Works very well on pairs with long trends (for example, currencies paired with JPY).
b) Open a trade on a new signal bar. After a new trend emerges (trend cloud changes it's color), wait until a signal bar appears and then open a trade. Signal bars work very well on the higher timeframes as it uses divergence and price action strategies.
3) Open a trade using currency strength lines. A very powerful and profitable strategy if you use the currency strength indicator. Whenever the currency strength lines cross (also marked with vertical rectangles), it symbolizes a change in trend. With a trend cloud, the strategy creates excellent entry points. It is strongly recommended to use currency strength lines from higher timeframes (for example, your active chart is on H1 timeframe, but you are using currency strength lines from H4 timeframe).
Which options to choose: It's all depends on a currency pair. For example XAUUSD works very well with signal bars, that is with price action and divergence.
On other hand CADJPY can be easily traded using the trend clouds. Information on the dashboard will say what is profitable, and what is not for a choosen pair.
How to exit trades:
As with the entry points there are two options of how you can exit your trades:
1) Pivot levels - levels can be used as points where you can close trades partially or completely. It is highly recommended to use with major pairs such as GBP/USD and EUR/USD as these pairs can be very volatile.
2) Parabolic Sar- the line signals a probabale trend change. So whenever the indicator changes to bullish or bearish, it's recommended to close a trade completely.
The indicators profit dashboard will show what exit strategy is more profitable, since the indicator has an option to show profit depending on a chosen exit strategy. (more informaton in the ''Inputs description').
