Stock Moving Average System Explained

Stock Indices 20 Pips Moving Average Stock Systems

The 20 pips price range moving average stock strategy is used with the 1 Hour chart and 15 minute chart. On this stock chart time frames we use the 100 and 200 simple moving average technical indicator.

Both the 1 Hour and 15 minute chart time frames will use the 100 and 200 SMA (SMA Indicator) to determine the direction of the trend.

The 1 Hour chart time-frame checks the long-term direction of the trend, upward or downward trend, depending on the direction of the moving averages. All stock trades taken should be in this stock trend direction.

We then use the 15 min chart to find the optimal point to enter stock trades. Indices trades are opened only when the price is within 20 pips range of the 200 simple MA, if price is not within this pip range stock trades are not opened.
