5 Best Practices for Using Trade Wave Indicator
To maximize the effectiveness and accuracy of the Trade Wave indicator, consider the following best practices during real time trading:
- 5 Candle (5C) Rule:
- The Trade Wave indicator thrives on momentum. Implement the 5 Candle (5C) rule: if a stock doesn’t move significantly within 5 candles after a signal is generated, consider exiting the trade and waiting for the next signal. Sharp market moves typically begin within this 5-candle window, allowing you to catch the most significant price movements.
- Risk-Reward Ratios:
- While the indicator offers various built-in target and stoploss options (both static and dynamic), generally, the reward in this indicator is way higher than the stoploss.
- Ultra-safe traders can opt for a 1:1 risk-reward ratio, but typical traders should aim for a 1:2 ratio, and aggressive traders might go for a 1:3 ratio.
- Trailing stop losses is crucial—traders using 1:2 and 1:3 ratios can trail the stoploss to break even once a 1:1 ratio is achieved.
- On higher time frames, such as the 1-hour chart, it’s possible to achieve even 1:4 or 1:5 ratios, especially when applying the 5C rule or other SL methods provided in the indicator.
- Instead of focusing solely on win percentage, aim for trades with a favorable risk-reward ratio.
- While the indicator offers various built-in target and stoploss options (both static and dynamic), generally, the reward in this indicator is way higher than the stoploss.
- Multi-Time Frame Confirmation:
- For added confirmation of signals, cross-reference the indicator’s signals across multiple time frames for the same stock/index. If the signal aligns on both a higher time frame and a lower time frame, the likelihood of accuracy increases. This method ensures that your trades are supported by broader market trends.
- Market Direction Focus:
- In non-directional or sideways markets, pay attention to both buy and sell signals. This approach allows you to capitalize on market fluctuations regardless of direction.
- In trending markets, if the market is traveling upwards, prioritize BUY signals. Conversely, if the market is trending downwards, focus on SELL signals. This strategy helps align your trades with the overall market momentum.
- Avoiding Big Candle Signals in Short Time Frames:
- In smaller time frames, it’s advisable to ignore signals that appear with large candles, as most of the move might have already occurred. The indicator input section includes an option to ignore longer candles based on the average of the last 10 candles. Users can adjust this setting tailoring it to the time frame they trade. This helps avoid entering trades too late and ensures you capture more optimal entry points.
