Buy and sell signals based on Larry Williams's exponential moving average strategy 9.4 for failed reversals and trend continuation.
How does it work?
For an uptrend, we need a candle turning the 9 period EMA down and closing below it, followed by a candle turning the 9 period EMA up and closing above it, with a low higher than the previous candle's low.
For a downtrend, we need a candle turning the 9 period EMA up and closing above it, followed by a candle turning the 9 period EMA down and closing below it, with a high lower than the previous candle's high.
How to use it?
Larry Williams proposes entering the trade with a buy stop order one tick above the high of the candle with the buy signal, placing the stop loss order one tick below the previous candle's low. When there's a sell signal instead, place a sell stop order one tick below the low of the candle with the sell signal, and a stop loss one tick above the previous candle's high.
If the entry stop order is not filled on the next candle, the signal remains valid if the EMA continues trending and the indicator will repeat the signal.
If filled, the arrow will change color and it is possible then to trail the stop loss order based on the 9 period EMA and exit the trade when it turns.
Tip:
Great for entering on failed reversals. You can avoid entering when a longer period moving average (e.g. 20) is in front of the movement or on an opposite direction.
Advantages:
- Filters automatically non-valid signals on consolidating prices when the moving average loses its trend tracking effect.
- Repeats entry signals while they remain valid.
- Allows different colors for activated signals, so you can visually analyze the strategy on past prices.
- Lets you change the type of arrow so you don't confuse with other indicators already in use.
- Can ring an alarm to draw your attention when there's an entry signal.
- Can pop an alert on the platform to inform you when there's an entry signal.
- Can send a push notification on your smartphone when there's an entry signal.
Features you can edit to your preference:
- Distance between the arrow signals and the candle's high/low
- Type of the Buy and Sell signal arrows, based on the Wingdings font
- Color and size of the Buy and Sell signal arrows
- Color, thickness and style of the exponential moving average
- Enable push notifications
- Enable pop-up alerts
- Enable sound alarms
- Sound of the alarm
