Super Trend Arrows Pro

1. Trade Execution Strategy

The indicator provides visual signals to enter trades based on trend continuation.

• Buy Entry (Long): Enter when a Green Up-Arrow appears. This indicates a “Buy-side” trend continuation.

• Sell Entry (Short): Enter when a Red Down-Arrow appears. This indicates a “Sell-side” trend continuation.

• Best Practice: The most reliable trades often occur at the beginning of a fresh trend (the first arrow) rather than after many consecutive arrows where the move might be exhausted.

2. Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP)

Proper exit points protect your capital and lock in gains.

• Stop Loss (SL): * For Buys: Place the SL slightly below the most recent swing low or the low of the candle that generated the green arrow.

  • For Sells: Place the SL slightly above the most recent swing high or the high of the candle that generated the red arrow.

• Take Profit (TP): * Aim for a Risk-to-Reward (RR) ratio of at least 1:1.5 or 1:2.

  • Alternatively, exit the trade when an arrow of the opposite color appears.

Don’t just set a random target; use the market’s structure.

1. Stop Loss (SL): Place your SL 3–5 pips behind the most recent swing high/low. This ensures that if the trend actually breaks, you are taken out of the trade before a major reversal.

2. Take Profit 1 (TP1): Set at a 1:1 Risk/Reward. Once hit, move your Stop Loss to the entry price (Break Even).

3. Take Profit 2 (TP2): Set at 1:2 Risk/Reward or wait for an opposite color arrow to appear to close the full position.

3. Risk Management & Lot Sizing

Trading involves high risk; never trade money you cannot afford to lose.

• The 1% Rule: Never risk more than 1% to 2% of your total account balance on a single trade. If you have a $1,000 account, you should only lose $10 if your Stop Loss is hit.

• Calculating Lot Size: Your lot size should be based on your Stop Loss distance.

  • Tight SL: You can use a slightly larger lot size.

  • Wide SL: You must use a smaller lot size (like 0.01) to keep the dollar risk the same.

• Example: On a $1,000 account, a 1% risk is $10. If your SL is 20 pips away, your lot size would be approximately 0.05 on a standard EURUSD pair.

4. Important Considerations

• Timeframes: The image shows an M5 (5-minute) chart. While it works for scalping, signals are generally more reliable on higher timeframes like H1 or H4.

• Confluence: Do not rely solely on arrows. Check if the price is near major Support or Resistance levels before entering.

• Higher Timeframe Filter: If you are trading on a 5-minute chart (M5), only take Buy signals if the 1-hour chart (H1) is also in an uptrend. Trading with the “Big Trend” significantly increases your win rate.

• Avoid News: Do not trade 15 minutes before or after major economic news (like NFP or CPI), as high volatility can trigger your Stop Loss before the trend continues.

• The “First Arrow” Rule: Usually, the first arrow after a trend change is the most profitable. Consecutive arrows (as seen in the image) are “continuation” signals, which carry slightly more risk as the move may be overextended.
