CRYPTO TRADING STRATEGY WITH MEDIAN INDICATOR

--------- ### WHAT IS MEDIAN INDICATOR ----- Before jumping into the understanding of the Median indicator, let’s first discuss what are indicators and why they are used. Any market, whether stocks, forex, or crypto move by the people or the inflow or outflow of money. This inflow or outflow of volume is visible on charts and there are various charts. Upon the visible data, mathematical calculations of different types are done to try to predict the future move of the market. The market behaves like it, that’s the real plus point. ### MEDIAN INDICATOR ------- The median indicator is a trend-based, trend-catching indicator. It measures the market direction and volatility to some extent. Simply, it displays the median value of high and low of a specific length of the chart. For this, it uses ATR(Average True Range). It constitutes a thick median line, acting as a moving average and giving purple color and green color while indicating bear or bull market respectively. Actually, the green band appears when the median line passes above the EMA of the same length and the purple band appears when the median line passes below the EMA of the same length. ![gap.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRhiFj6ZRqNi8R6mJweRgS9JA5JV1BvjEyfewpNLpcC4u/gap.png) ### HOW TO APPLY INDICATOR --------- ![1.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRDMBsmtj9kQ9FpDbMquYJ5M2U9Zf6iJfpc54aoo5ePGD/1.jpg) [TradingView](https://tradingview.com/) ------ As you can see I’m using tradingview application, here from indicator sections, I applied the median indicator. ![2.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVBF6q2yUBUsiLjPe3zUNzGASpNXwxiQqP8JrVhbpmuQw/2.jpg) [TradingView](https://tradingview.com/) ------- In this screenshot everything is clearly mentioned the upper band, lower band, uptrend, downtrend, high volatility, and low volatility indicates by this indicator. ![gap.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRhiFj6ZRqNi8R6mJweRgS9JA5JV1BvjEyfewpNLpcC4u/gap.png) ### BUY ENTRY FROM THIS INDICATOR -------- This indicator is a trend-based indicator. Therefore the buying or selling signal is also a trend indicator. This indicator's real benefit is, that it is trend-based, a trending market is a market where traders make most of their money. ![3.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdhx74eAbAyNwKgCEwKvbCZKDqcdspTSyNmvU7Yshj5mt/3.jpg) [TradingView](https://tradingview.com/) ------- In this screenshot, it is clear when the band turns green, it is the buy signal. And as it is a trend indicator it continues until the trend end. That means not a fixed percentage there is about TP or SL. The occurrence of the purple band is an indication of the ending of the trend. And it should be your TP or SL. ![gap.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRhiFj6ZRqNi8R6mJweRgS9JA5JV1BvjEyfewpNLpcC4u/gap.png) ### SELL ENTRY FROM THIS INDICATOR -------- ![4.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPbAP9sT5yzKVxspmRrXowKV3hWSDpGPcPdaF2181N91B/4.jpg) [TradingView](https://tradingview.com/) ------- In this screenshot, it is clear when the band turns to purple/pink, it is a sell signal. And as it is a trend indicator, it continues until the trend ends. That means not a fixed percentage there is of TP or SL. The occurring of the green band is an indication of the ending of the trend. And it should be your TP or SL ![gap.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRhiFj6ZRqNi8R6mJweRgS9JA5JV1BvjEyfewpNLpcC4u/gap.png) ### IDENTIFYING FALSE INDICATOR --------- This indicator, as it is a trend-based indicator, can be used with that indicator that is not trend-based, to identify their wrong signals. And dodge from wrong trade openings. Such as signals from RSI. ![5.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNViNgAhdwd1Q2V5bm3tDSCwVCqKNA9UqbjK8QPLPRS9C/5.jpg) [TradingView](https://tradingview.com/) ----- In this screenshot, it is clear how will this indicator will work and identify the wrong signal by RSI. When RSI gives the signal, watch and take a trade when the band changes, if it doesn’t, do not take the trade. ![gap.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRhiFj6ZRqNi8R6mJweRgS9JA5JV1BvjEyfewpNLpcC4u/gap.png) ###

CONCLUSION

----- Indicators are tools that analyze the data and predict the future flow of the market. They are very prone to any news or whale. Therefore almost every indicator is for long time frames usage. Specially trend-based indicators. Because you want your trade to be open for a month but must win more than 20%. Long time frames give perfections in indicator, make you less prone to whales wigfishing and in more profit at least in the crypto market. The Crypto market’s volatility grants it this feature. ![gap.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRhiFj6ZRqNi8R6mJweRgS9JA5JV1BvjEyfewpNLpcC4u/gap.png) ###
