What’s in a name for the strategy? Well, Fan is all about those smart moves in trading electronic contracts. I roll with this strategy on the quick charts, you know, those short time frames (min) and some standard indicators that really deliver. Discover how PocketOption broker platform can enhance your trading strategies for optimal success.
So, here's the deal – on the Pocket Option platform, the toolkit is loaded with features. Time to cash in on my strategy after I set up my account and follow the rules I've laid out below.
How to set up my trading terminal
The “Fan” strategy? It’s a solid choice for short-term trading in those high-volatility assets. I suggest going for the currency pairs or diving into some cryptocurrencies.
Next up, I’d be picking the “candlesticks” chart and using a time interval of M1.
Once all the parameters are set, it’s off to “Indicators” to grab the 7 MA and MACD. Yep, I’m stacking seven moving averages, each with different periods. Together, they create that “Fan” strategy vibe. That's how it snagged its name.
For the “Fan” setup, I’m looking for 6 EMAs all the same color: 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13. A little hint: make those exponential MAs, ditch the simple ones. I can change that in the indicator settings right under the “Period” parameter.
The seventh MA? It’s gotta be exponential, but I’m switching it up with a different color and a period of 55.
Now, I need that MACD oscillator to support my EMAs. I’ll see it hanging out in my workspace, all set with default parameters.
Trading with the “Fan” system
Alright, I’ve got seven signaling moving averages and that oscillator on my chart. Time to kick off the trading.
Time to execute a CALL option when all those “fan” lines cross the EMA with a period of 55 from the bottom up. And the fast (green) MACD line? It better be crossing above the zero line too.
Execute a PUT option when all six lower EMAs dip below the higher EMA, and that MACD signal line slides into the negative zone.
The above signals? They’re my way to catch some gains in the electronic contracts market. But hold on, there’s one more trick in the playbook for making that market entry.
If I see all the lower EMAs clustering in a “bundle” and the MACD signal lines (blue and red) come to a stop, it’s my moment to shine and buy an option. The contract type I choose? It all depends on the direction the green line of the oscillator crosses over the red one.
I like to set 5 minutes for expiration to keep risks in check (that's the time for five candles to form on the chart). It helps tone down that annoying market noise.
Overall, the “Fan” strategy is a goldmine waiting to be tapped in the electronic contracts market. Just keep in mind, signals may come up often, so I gotta keep my money management sharp and cap my stake to 3% of the total deposit in any one trade.
