Strategy

TrendCatch has 6 trading strategies to choose from.
All Strategies are updated live at the same time. The color illustrate the current position (Long or Short - Cyan/Red)
The general trading method is to follow one strategy at a time.
A very experienced trader will be able to mix or combine the different trading strategies. It is not advisable to try that unless the Trader has used TrendCatch for some time.
Scalp MX: |
With the Scalp MX Strategy the trades are normally very fast and furious, and there are very short time to consider the trade, as well as the Trader should decide during the individual position when to take profit, and NOT stay in the trade until it changes. It is important to trade very close to the Trade Price TrendCatch shows. If that is not possible within a few minutes from receiving the signal, wait to a new signal is computed. This strategy creates many trades during volatile market conditions. This is a very stressful trading strategy, you have to be as good as a professional trader and have your exit strategies ready, as there is normally no time to think and reconsider, just trade using your strategies!! |
Scalp LS: |
The Scalp LS Strategy is less volatile than Scalp MX, and creates fewer trades. It is very important that the Trader decide during the individual position when to take profit, and NOT stay in the trade until it changes. The advantage with this strategy is that it give the trader more time and the possibility to trade several times on the same prices and there is normally enough time to get in and out of a trade. It is not as frustrating as the Scalp MX, and has the potential for bigger profits and losses during the individual positions. |
SIGMA: |
The Sigma Strategy is a strategy, where we have build-in more volatile market conditions into the algorithm. The strategy normally creates fewer trades when the market is very volatile. With this strategy the Trader many times can get away with staying in the position until the signal change, but the best way to trade is to execute an exit strategy. This strategy is very efficient for taking profit in almost every trade, but bigger Draw Downs while waiting for a profit can occur. |
HYBRID: |
The Hybrid Strategy is a combination of all of the above plus it's own characteristics. The performance is normally excellent and often stays in a trade for a considerable time and thereby give the trader a good opportunity to trade the same position several times. It has a very big potential for huge profits during the individual positions. |
CALCULUS: |
The Calculus Strategy. A strategy with very high profit ratio and normally very few trades. It is a completely new and different developed algorithm where we have created a trading strategy which is well suited for a very volatile market with trades having higher profit margin and possibility to enter the same trend several times for even higher profit. A very efficient trading method using this strategy is to trade often during the same trend and only take small profits after entering a trade position. See the Calculus Strategy. Only use this strategy if the market volatility is high. |
DELTA: |
The Delta Strategy is like the Calculus strategy based upon our latest developed algorithm. What is completely new and special about this strategy is that we have developed a strategy that computes the trend when the market is close to a new intra day high or low, and have a Neutral Zone where the Trend is Undefined! Many times that leads to a Buy signal at or near the lowest point in the market, or the opposite for a Sell signal. But be aware - it could also mean that a long or short trend is being confirmed and that the new High or Low just confirm that the new High or Low is the start to a further UpTrend or DownTrend. This strategy is very efficient under seesaw market conditions! Also think about using trailing stops for profit. |
Regardless of the chosen strategy, the warning Alerts about Trend changes will always be shown on the Alert Panel.
When you change Strategy the Trade Info Grid shows the result based upon the new strategy.
It is very important NOT to react before the trading is confirmed by TrendCatch. Just because the market price move above or below the current Price/Trend line should not lead to a premature reaction. Wait for the trade confirmation.
