  • Moving Averages Stock Indices Trading Technical Indicator
  • RSI
  • MACD

Examples RSI and MACD & Stochastic Trading Strategy

MACD RSI Stochastics Strategy - Combining MACD RSI Stochastics Indices Trading Strategies

From our Moving Averages, RSI, MACD and Stochastic Strategy - sell stock indices signal is generated when:

  1. Both Moving Averages are moving down
  2. Stochastic moving downward
  3. RSI is below 50
  4. MACD moving downwards below centerline

The sell stock indices signal was generated when all these indices trading rules were met. The exit indices signal is generated when a signal in opposite direction is generated - when the technical indicators reverse.

A buy stock indices signal would be generated using Moving Averages, RSI, MACD and Stochastic Strategy - buy stock indices signal is generated when:

  1. Both Moving Averages are moving up
  2. Stochastic moving upward
  3. RSI is above 50
  4. MACD moving upwards above center-line

The buy stock indices signal would be generated when all these indices trading rules are met. The exit indices signal is generated when a signal in opposite direction is generated - when the technical indicators reverse.

Good thing about using such a indices trading strategy - Moving averages, MACD, RSI and Stochastics Strategy - is that a trader will be using different types of indices indicators to confirm the stock indices signals & avoid as many indices whip-saws as possible in process.

  • Stochastic Oscillator Indicator - is a momentum oscillator indices indicator
  • Moving Averages Technical Indicator - is a trend following indices indicator
  • RSI - is a momentum oscillator indices indicator
  • MACD - is a trend following indices indicator

It is very important to combine more than one stock indices technical indicator when coming up with a indices strategy, as a combination of indices trading signals is better than relying on just a single indices technical indicator. The indices indicator combinations reinforce each other's stock indices trading signals, and cancel out false whipsaws indices signals.

A trend following indices indicator helps a trader to analyze overall market indices trend, while at the same time using more than one momentum indices technical indicator gives better and more reliable entry and exit signals for trading indices.

For this indices example the indices trend direction is upwards, but at some point there were a few whipsaw signals generated by the stochastic oscillator - and question is how can a trader avoid these indices trading whipsaws?

To avoid indices whipsaws combine two or more indices indicators - such as MACD - RSI - Moving Average indicator to help avoid these whipsaws, for example the MACD technical indicator had not given a crossover indices signal although MACD indicator was very close to the zero center line level.

One indices tip is that as long as MACD indicator is above zero center line even if the MACD indicator lines are heading downwards then the trend is still upwards. As shown on the stock indices trading example above MACD indicator did not go below the zero center line and after this the upward trend continued and MACD indicator was above the zero line mark and the indices trend continued to move upward.
