Forex : Technical Indicators : The Kinds of Technical Indicators

I Talked in previous article about the second part of the trading using Fibonacci you can read it through this link

Today I will show you Kinds of Technical Indicators that you will use in Forex trading


The Kinds of Technical Indicators

Indicators give you early signal - Oscillators / Leading Indicators -
Indicators give you late signal - Momentum / Lagging Indicators -

The Indicators that provide us early signals can help us to grab the chance early but its disadvantages that it maybe being inaccurate sometimes or because of important something happened at the market and it will be false signal.Indicators give you late signals are more accurate and less wrong signals but its disadvantages that maybe loses in grabbing the chance early that's why we divide the technical indicators to two kinds : Rapid technical indicators and slow technical indicators

Firstly : Rapid Technical Indicators / Oscillators Indicators


Rapid Technical Indicators are providing us early and quickly signals and it can that expects trend reflection instantly ,it is telling us be careful the trend will reflect now and it's called Oscillators Indicators

Secondly : Slow Technical Indicators / Momentum Indicators


Slow Technical Indicators are providing us late signals because it waits the actual reflection of trend and after it makes sure from the the change at the prices ,at this moment the slow indicators tell us be careful there will be new trend now , so you can enter at your deals safely

But be careful if you think now that you will earn more money using early indicators because you will catch the new trend from beginning , you're right but remember that the disadvantages of rapid technical indicators that maybe give you fake signals and maybe a reason To mislead you and therefore you will lose

You will say : OK I will use slow indicators because its not give me fake signals ,this very logical because its providing us signals after the price changes and you will be very comfortable , but from it disadvantages sides its maybe make you very late in deals entry and this miss you more profits were possible to achieve 

I Think that the big earnings happen with the first movements of candlesticks on the chart , the meaning is the beginning of the new trend is the biggest chance in front of you to make more profits , and because of the slow technical indicators alone maybe a reason to lose some these profits ,the right solution is using the two kinds of indicators the rapid and the slow at the same time ,and if the fake signals shown to you because of the rapid signals don't worry the slow signals will offset that

Forex : Technical Indicators : Trading Using Fibonacci Indicator - Part 1

After we finished from the series of articles about the technical analysis , we will begin a new series about the technical indicators that will help you in technical analysis more ,you can take a look on the previous series about technical analysis through this link

Fibonacci


Fibonacci indicator one of indicators which we use it a lot in technical analysis , so we advice you to learn the basics of this indicator ,It's great and fantastic indicator

Leonard Fibonacci

Leonard Fibonacci is famous Italian mathematician and he discovered numbers series , through this series he could find a ratios it's called (Fibonacci ratios) ,these ratios describe the dimensions of things

: Fibonacci Ratios consisting of the below serial numbers


1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144

: These serial numbers that Fibonacci discovered from these numbers

3=1+2
Then 2+3 = 5
Then 3+5 = 8 ...ect

The Golden Ratio


After that Fibonacci work on measuring each number to the largest number which comes after it and he got on the rate = 0.618 , in example : in the case of division 34 /55 = 0.618 and when he measured the rate between alternative numbers he got on the rate 0.382

Example : 34/89 = 0.382 and that what we wanted to know Fibonacci ratios

All Golden Ratios


%61.8
%50.0
%38.2

Fibonacci Indicator Function


Fibonacci Indicator used in trying to predict the support areas where we could buy from it and to predict the resistance areas where we could sell from it , as well determining the goals to take profits or stop loss . all of this by drawing Fibonacci indicator on the chart because the fibo draws to us group of lines and levels automatically that probably that the price goes to it through the trading period

You're not required to make any calculations to determine these ratios manually because the metatrader will make this work your behalf , but we think you need to learn how to work by Fibonacci to be familiar to you

Forex : Technical Analysis : Elliott Waves

As part of articles series about Technical Analysis , I'll explain Elliott Waves

: I talked in previous articles about


Elliott Theory


The Scientist  Ralph Nelson Elliott At 1920 innovated a way could through it watching prices movements of financial stocks . The theory says that the market moves as waves , and it makes high swings or low swings

Elliott says that the market moves by waves system 5 - 3 
First 5 waves called impulse waves 
Last 3 waves called corrective waves 

Firstly : Impulse Waves


Elliott theory says that each wave show prices case


Impulse Waves

Wave Number 1

Mostly the cause of this wave the existence of little number of investors from who has  a desire to buy the stock where the price is cheap at this level

Wave Number 2

At this wave the investors stops about buying the stock ,and take profits stage starts , so the price start to fall for a period of time ,but anyway the price doesn't fall far at low levels

Wave Number 3

Mostly this wave is the strongest and longest .why? because the stock attracts the attention of investors and most of them competing to buy the stock and this lead to rise the price of stock more and more and always the wave number 3 is twice of the wave number 1

Wave Number 4

At this level the investors start to gain the profits from impulse the wave number 3 , the wave number 4 always be weak and this causes price falling to qualify the stock to find new buying chance

Wave Number 5

This Wave is hysterical wave because the stock increases in demand maniacally and it rises To the farthest limits until it reaches to ABC pattern and it's waves to correct previous situations


Secondly : ABC Waves


When the five waves consisted after that the market starts in correcting the matters through forming corrective waves called ABC waves ,as we see at the picture below

ABC Waves

But notice these waves in up markets and down markets ,and you can use these waves on the chart by using Zigzag indicator

To Use Zigzag indicator on the chart : Click on indicators then choose custom then ZigZag

Forex : Technical Analysis : Pivot Points

As part of articles series about Technical Analysis ,I'll explain Pivot Points

: I talked in previous articles about


Pivot Points Definition


Forex Traders use Pivot Points as a tool of preference between support and resistance levels and generally pivot points are the area that the prices visit during specific time period and it must visit it or it must be close to it at least

: An Example shows up pivot points on the chart

Pivot Points

? How to Calculate The Pivot Points


Pivot Point = (Highest level of the price + Lowest level of the price+ The Closure point ) / 3


? How to Calculate Support and Resistance Levels Using Pivot Points


: Way of Calculating the first levels of support and resistance

(First Support = 2 x pivot point - ( highest level of the price during time period
(First Resistance = 2 x pivot point - ( highest level of the price during time period

: Way of Calculating the second levels of support and resistance

(Second Support = pivot point - ( highest level of price - lowest level of price
(Second Resistance = pivot point + (highest level of price - lowest level of price

Don't worry you will not doing any calculations because of the indicator of pivot points determines the support and resistance levels on the chart automatically

?How to Trade Using Pivot Points


: There're two ways


The Trading using breakout


Pivot Point (PP) is first place you must look to it instead of focusing on support and resistance levels because you expect that the price will go to it depending on breakout theory (resistance penetration or support penetration ) , when the price reaches to pivot point ,you'll be able to take decision whether the entry of buying or selling or even take profits where the pivot point or stop loss

Generally if the prices higher than pivot point ,we expect higher prices
As for if the prices lower than pivot point ,we expect lower prices

The Trading inside sideways term


When the prices confined at sideways trend , the best for you make buying deals on support levels and make selling deals on resistance levels

You can download pivot point indicator from this link

Support and Resistance


Support and Resistance considered from most important terms that used a lot in the technical analysis and the most important to expect the next trend ,so we must take a look on the basics and learn support and resistance in order to how and why the trend reverses and how the trend continues its trend whether up or down

Support and Resistance

Look to the simple diagram above , as you see it's look a like zigzag shape tends to bullish (that mean is the market is rising) , but there's what's called resistance level which makes the market bounces around the bottom ,this is cause of the resistance while the market continues rising again because there's area below receives the pressures of the resistance and pushing the price around rising and this because of support level

That way the support and resistance consist all the time with the market fluctuations , so remember that the support pushing the price to the up and the resistance pushing the price to the down



Firstly : Support Line


Support Line is a line we can draw it by connecting between the lowest points that price reaches with each other , this line makes area called lowest levels area on the chart

Many traders decide to buy where support levels but I think that the market must test support levels before the buying signals appear which mostly appear after the second or third test fot the support line

But if the support line broken around the down and the trend says that the support has broken (that mean the market become in bearish ) ,here we can say that the market will searches about the new lowest price to make new support level

Secondly : Resistance Line


Resistance Line is a line we can draw it by connecting between the highest points that price reaches with each other , this line makes area called highest levels area on the chart

Many traders decide to sell where resistance levels but I think that the market must test support levels before the selling signals appear which mostly appear after the second or third test fot the resistance line

But if the resistance line broken arround the up and the trend says that the resistance has broken (that mean the market become in bullish) ,here we can say that the market will searches about the new highest price to make new resistance level
