| Entry and exit signals from the IFR2 Strategy by Larry Connors in his book "Short Term Trading Strategies That Work". |
|---|
Larry claims this strategy correctly predicted the shortterm direction of the S&P 500 83.6% of the time from 1995 to 2007.
How does it work?
The indicator activates the buy signal when the price closes above the 200-day moving average and the 2-period IFR closes below 5.
The sell signal is the opposite.
How to use it?
Enter the trade with a market order as soon as the candle closes with the buy signal.
There is no stop loss order neither take profit order.
The recommended exit is when the price closes above it's 5-period moving average.
Tip:
- Despite the author not recommending the use of a stop loss order, you can place one at the 200-period moving average just to be safe against unexpected sudden crashes and protect your capital.
