Quadra Safe Trading Strategy - I

Similar to the Classic Swing High/Low of 5 bars which takes into account 2 Bars on either side of the 3rd Bar....in the same way a 3 Bar Swing High/Low is determined by the first & third bar to determine whether the 2nd bar is a Swing High/Low.... will post Charts in the evening so it becomes clearer....and is very easy to identify visually.....!!!

Hi SG,

Need to confirm - For EOD/hourly, we use 5 bars to mark swing high/lows and for less than hour TF we use 3 bars ?

Also, if we consider 5 bar high low, say we are looking to mark swing high, should the high of first bar must be taken our by 2nd bar and low of the 4th bar be taken out by 5th bar ?

Hi Rahul,

Presently, Quadra EOD uses only 3 Bar Swing High/Low.... not the Classic 5 Bar Swing H/L ....therefore it was specifically mentioned because most are aware of the Classic....and Use of 3 Bar is my twisting of the Normal....:)

Forgot to mention for Intraday.....with the Tweaks mentioned in couple of earlier posts.....Initial & Trailing S/L is 21-EMA until we have a decent 3 Bar Swing H/L appear....!!!

Hi Anant,

It is quite possible for us to get another Live example of the Gap .....if we get another Gap...tomorrow or whenever while the Trade is active.....while the existing Gap of Friday has already moved Initial S/L to 518x.xx from 5301.xx

Let's see how it plays out ....!!!

Hi SG,

I have the adjusted TSL for the latest Gap Down. Did not post it because I am also waiting for the next Gap or the present Gap to be filled which will illustrate the advantage in terms of NIFTY points.

Dear Ananth Sir,

Thanks

Hi,

Here is an example of the advantage of adjusting TSL when a Gap occurs. I have taken the example of Spot NIFTY to illustrate (I have no Futures data).

NIFTY Gapped up on 15-2-2012 and 17-2-2012. Therefore, there will be two TSL adjustments by considering the two Gap Ups.

The first chart is with normal 3-bar swing TSL without adjusting for Gap Up.The normal TSL on 17-2-2012 (Second Gap Up Day) was 5322.85 which was hit on 27-2-2012

The second chart is with Gap Up adjusted TSL. The TSL on 17-2-2012 (Second Gap Up day) was 5531.30 which was hit on 22-2-2012.

The difference in the two TSLs on 17-2-2012 is 208 points. Thus we gained 208 points by adjusting the TSL on Gap Up days. The two charts below show this clearly.

TSL without Gap Up adjustment:




TSL with Gap Up adustment:

Gautam.... Commodity Trades including Crude for me is based on Hourly....because that lasts upto several days.....!!!

Please Find the Crude Hourly with Necessary Markings & Annotation

Please note if the TSLs aren't taken out by the 18th of this Month...will be closing Trades....because will not be in town thereafter for 3 Days ...!!!

Hi SG,

The 1st ADD was because of 5th consecutive candle taking out lows of earlier candle. But couldn't understand the rationale behind adding 2nd ADD. Can you please explain ?

Hi Aloak,

Presently, for MT4 I just have a template for Intraday & EOD which basically has all the Averages ....Smoothed MA for Wilders & EMAs only if you need the template I can upload that....!!!

While the AFL with Triggers, Initial S/L & Trailing S/L isn't complete because we are still dealing with exceptions & revisions that are being discussed here...!!!

Anant is still exploring the Possibility of including Position Sizing Based on Initial S/L & Available Trading Capital.....had uploaded the basic Quadra AFL last evening it is in one of the Posts addressed to PrabhSingh.....!!!

If you can get started with that while Anant works on rest of the aspects...which will be uploaded in due course...!!!
