How does the SHI Channel indicator work?
The SHI Channel indicator and as the all of the channel indicator uses the highest high and lowest low of the price to determine the upper and lower bands of the channel.In the SHI Channel The channel is calculated according to the given period of calculation and the time frame of the used chart, and the channel is self-adjusted (Like the Bollinger Bands).As you see in figure 1 there are two thick lines that indicates the upper and lower channel and a dashed center line.
The channel gives the overall direction of the price movement - up or down - and may change from time to time, specially if it used with a low timeframe (1, 5 and 5 minutes).
How to trade using the SHI Channel indicator?
Actually you can’t trade with the SHI Channel indicator alone, it will not tell you when to enter the trade neither when to exit, The SHI Channel indicator telling you the overall direction of the price trend and the channels with the middle line warn you how much the trend is strong or weak, however , you have to use another indicators to generate the entry/exit signals
So.. for entry and exit.. i will use chart pattern.. you don't have to be an expert in chart pattern.. to make hundred bucks a month in fx.. i only focus on double top or bottom pattern, head n shoulder pattern, inverse Head n Shoulder, Ascending and descending triangle (the breakout of these triangle at 4h can give you about 400 pips)
When a dealer makes a trade he should forever observe the trade no stuff how long he is untaken to keep the trade on. To observer a trade simply it is best done on time frames higher than those in which he naturally trades. A merchant could see a trade more visibly when he has a bigger perspective. It is easier to dash the joist and resistance levels the further from the modern time skeleton you are trading. The lesser the time entice is, the harder it is to evaluator where a good exit spit is. That is if you want to get more than just a few pips on the trade. A trader who is concentrating only on an abruptly time surround will ignore clothes that are apparent to someone who is looking at the better time frames.
Something that I like to do find the trend on a better time body. Time the opening of the trade on a lesser time build then move back up to a larger time border to overseer the trade. This procedure will help to get more pips out of a trade and still permit the bazaar to move.
