EVENT CANDLE STRATEGY
❖ We will use 30 Minutes Timeframe
❖ When a Big Event candle is formed, we wait for the price to break
above or below the highest or lowest point of that same candle.
❖ If within next 3 hours, the candle closes above or below the wick of
the event candle, we enter the trade.
❖ We will place a small stop loss (maximum 40-50 pips) below the
entry candle or a group of small candles that form after the event
candle.
❖ Target – 1 or 2 Pivots. If The first Pivot is under 80 Pips, consider
second pivot as the target.
❖ Take only 1:3 and above RRR Trades.
❖ Trail 50 EMA after 80% Target is achieved
❖ Usually, this strategy takes 2-3 days to give the result.
❖ Pivot Settings
❖ Entry Not Activated Examples
