Good day to all my forum members here, Let me share a little bit if I know about how to do a pullback trading strategy and it's also good for beginners here, because it's very simple to do it and even if we already have Another trading strategy is that we can incorporate this so that we don't miss the opportunity of a good trade and we don't just rely on one strategy.
So now let's find out what is
Pullback Trading or we can also call it Retracement. Because the price does not run in a straight line, we normally see a pull back. When the market is trending upward there is always a pull back. Let's just remember that this is a battle between Buyers and Sellers. When the buyers side is strong we will see an uptrend and when the seller sides are strong we will see a downtrend.
Because of the uptrend market there is a pullback, because the sellers temporarily have overpower over the buyers.
Every pullback we see is a failed attempt of a reversal.
In this case, we can take advantage if we know how to identify a pullback properly. It depends on the timeframe in which we are trading because that happens in any time frame. So we are looking at 3 key levels to identify the possible pullback. In an uptrend market we are not able to buy immediately before a breakout. So what we do is we wait for a pullback and this often happens at
Support and Resistance.When the market goes uptrend there is always a pullback, but it depends on how strong the trend is. If the trend is very strong, then the pullback is not that deep. And this normal pullback picture that we see does not reach its previous swing low.
In this case, in our example, this is his previous resistance that can serve as support because it has been broken.
So let's see if the price approaches to take a long position. And of course we will not forget our stop loss that has a distance from the support that depends on risk management.
In this case the trend is not in our favor, so it is also important that we know the historical movement of the assets so that we know the precious support and resistance where the price can bounce.
same concept in the short position in the dwontrend market, all we are looking for is the key levels like support and resistance where the price can be rejected. Like the example in the picture below dwontrend market.
We can see here how the previous support that may have become resistance levels is repeatedly rejected.
The good things is we can also do this strategy in the trading range market. As long as the swing Hi-low is far apart to have a chance of profitability.
