I am new to Forex and I am about to start my first trades by mapping the EUR/USD and JPY/USD pairs. After watching many videos, I adopted the strategy of using MACD and a 200-period moving average, always following the trend. When the MACD line crosses with the 26-period average, I enter a sell or buy position depending on whether it is above or below the 0 axis. My leverage today is 1:1000 and my account balance is $1,000. For the experienced traders here in the forum, is this a good strategy? Can you give me tips? Do you make a living from trading?

I will be doing Day Trading on MT5.

dude don't rely on indicator. learn price action, support resistance, market structure, FVG/Imbalance, BOS, CHOCH, and if you are new trade only London and new York session don't go to the XAUUSD(Gold). pick three pairs EUR/USD GBPUSD and GBPJPY take 2 trade only risk 0.5% each trade if you loss 2 trade then stop that's call day Off. never ever try to recover and your loss you gonna start revenge trading.

I tried your strategy and it is not bad. The longer the period the better, and the choice of MA(200) is correct as well. I did not understand where you want to open the trade. See my screenshot and draw where you intend to open your Buy trade. Than we can discuss it

Thank you for the tips. I know the basics of graphical analysis, as I have already operated in binary options, I want to combine my knowledge with some indicator, I thought this would be good. What do you think?

The less leverage you use in forex, the longer you will stay in forex. To make forex your main profession, you should ideally use no leverage at all. Your strategy is definitely risky and not good because if news is released, there will be flash candles with huge losses

Just sharing my experience, I went from indicator, supply demand , and finally ICT.

After learning all those strategies, I craft my own price action technique and stick with it. It took me 3 years to finally gain consistency in trading.

My advices is, start with demo, test all the strategies and collect data minimum 1 to 2 years. You also need to decide which time frame are you going to trade, LTF or HTF, and etc.

You'll figure it out, trust me

Your method for the 200-period moving average and MACD is effective. Because you are utilizing a leverage of 1:1000, you need to focus on risk control. One option is to test your approach using a demo account. Some effective platforms that I have used and continue to use include fxview and pepperstone. Check if the broker is providing you with the indicator you're looking for. This is a great way to test and validate your strategy before trading with real money.

Your strategy using the MACD and a 200-period moving average is a good starting point, but be cautious about relying solely on indicators. It’s important to incorporate broader market analysis and risk management techniques, especially with high leverage. D

Good morning all,
I personally use Exclusive Markets under a “standard plus” account. Spread is fixed at 0,9 pips. With my strategy implemented that’s great so I would recommend you visit their site for more information.
