Currency Pairs: EURSUD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, USDCHF, AUDUSD.
Forex Indicators: 200 EMA and Stochastic indicator with default settings.
The sole purpose of the 200 ema is to find the trend. If price is above the 200 ema then its an uptrend so you only need to look for buying opportunities.

The stochastic indicator is an oscillator and it tells you if the market is oversold or overbought and it is your trigger to buy or sell.
You sell only when the trend is down and the stochastic lines have gone past above the 80 line and are starting to point down at the close of the candlestick.
You buy only when the trend is up and the stochastic lines have gone down past the 20 line and are starting to point up at the close of the candlestick.
check to see if stochastic lines have gone below 20 line and now MUST BE POINTING UP.

Set your take profit target at 20 to 30 pips.
check to see if stochastic lines have gone above the 80 line and now MUST BE POINTING DOWN.
immediately activate a sell market order.
