Forex EMA Trend Trading System Strategy with MACD and Range Factor (MACD)

Advanced and high accuracy Forex EMA Trend Trading System – Exponential Moving Average reacts faster to recent price changes than a simple moving average. The 12- and 26-day EMAs are the most popular short-term averages, and they are used to create indicators like the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) and the percentage price oscillator (PPO). In general, the 56- and 200-day EMAs are used as signals of long-term trends.

 
‘Exponential Moving Average – EMA‘ A type of moving average that is similar to a simple moving average, except that more weight is given to the latest data. The exponential moving average is also known as “exponentially weighted moving average”.
 
More specifically, the exponential moving average (EMA) gives a higher weighting to recent prices than the simple moving average (SMA) does, while the SMA assigns equal weighting to all values. The two averages are similar because they are interpreted in the same manner and are both commonly used by technical traders to smooth out price fluctuations.
 
The most commonly used EMAs by forex traders are the 5, 10, 12, 20, 26, 50, 100, and 200. Traders operating off of shorter time frame charts, such as the five- or 15-minute charts, are more likely to use shorter-term EMAs, such as the 5 and 10.
 
Traders looking at higher time frames also tend to look at higher EMAs, such as the 20 and 50. The 50, 100 and 200 EMAs are considered especially significant for longer-term trend trading.

NOTE:

Forex trading is a risky business, so try not to increase the amount of risk that you’re already taking. When you enter into trades less frequently, you’ll naturally choose those with a higher probability of winning, and NOT enter into trades with a lower probability of winning.
 
Remember, in Forex trading, it’s not about how many times you win, but how MUCH you win. Even if you only have one successful trade each month, it’s enough for you to be rich if you can be consistent about it.
