I Tried The Super Accurate MACD Trading Strategy

hey guys CH trades here so over the past few weeks or so I've been trying out the super accurate macd trading strategy and keep in mind if you're just relying on a Buy Signal from the macd or a sell signal from the macd you're probably going to get stopped out a lot of the time so what I want to do in this video is not only show you how the macd works also these three other principles that we need to apply to the macd indicator so since I've been trying this I literally have not had

a red day I've had a few red trades but overall my day has been great over the past seven trading days so with that being said super excited to share this strategy with you guys like I said macne is an awesome confirmation if you apply these three other things let's dive straight into it all right as you can see I use this exact strategy today on my Apex accounts um I actually took two different trades so um we had one trade where I made 200 in five different accounts and then another trade where I made

106 in five different accounts as well so in total I'm up around $1,500 on all my PA accounts today now let's go ahead and go into this macd trading strategy so like I said before there's three things you really need to apply to any indicator in my opinion and this is going to make it so you actually have an edge you'll start getting to a win rate where you'll have you know 70 to 80% so if you just use the macd you're probably going to have you know a 40 30 50 win rate depending on

what you're trading but I'm telling you guys if you apply these other three things and use macd as confirmation your win rate's going to really start to go up so this first thing is obviously the trend you hear it all the time the trend is your friend you want to trade with the trend don't go against the trend you want to follow the momentum of the market that will automatically give you a higher probability of taking trades and if we're going up and the macd is giving a Buy Signal right that instantly increases your probability

of winning a trade okay that's what trading is all about next thing is volume now the main reason we want to trade when there's high amounts of volume and the macd is lining up right is because volume shows participation in the market right shows all kinds of buyers and sellers stepping in and it's also a great place to put your stop loss right so if you put your stop loss below where all the volume was then chances are those buyers or sellers who made all that volume is going to protect it if we retest so

it's a great place to actually put your stop loss now the next thing is levels okay if we're trading up but all of a sudden we're getting into a supply zone or big resistance area then you kind of want to understand that okay maybe I shouldn't take along here if the macd is giving a Buy Signal because we're at a key resistance level so the levels are just trying to tell you where to hold your trade or where to potentially not take trades right and that's why if you use these three things you can see

it's automatically going to give you a way higher probability of winning your trades using the macd buy and sell signal so now I want to show you some of the trades I took today this morning using this exact macd trading strategy all right so if I pull my charts here we are on ES this is the S&P 500 this why I like to trade normally normally um I have a 5minute time frame on the left and a 2-minute time frame on the right now if we look at today where the market open right on the

5 minute as you can see the trend was obviously up right we bounced off our demand Zone and we're consistently going up now what happened here is when the market opened as you can see let's just go into the two-minute we started getting some selling now this is very common um you know typically the first 30 minutes of the Market opens because it usually tells you what's going to happen the rest of the day all right so what happened here was we sold off we know the trend was up right so I'm not going to

go short here because I don't want to go against the trend as you can see what happened here is we started pulling back and what happened on these two candles you can see right here right we had massive volume come in right we had just as high as volume as the opening candle so when we started getting the selling pressure what happened is buyers started to defend they didn't want the price to go down anymore so once we got all this volume kicking in and we failed to go down lower right what does that happen

that automatically squeezes the price up okay so going back to our sheet here right we know what the trend is we know that a bunch of buy volume kicked in on that initial selloff and our supply Zone was pretty far away so we didn't really have to worry about our levels too much plus we also were in a pre-market support area so this is a level we could recognize a little bit now the last thing I was looking for right here was I was looking for macd as a confirmation to actually enter my trade along

with a green candle now since we sold off so fast and we started getting bought up pretty quick the macd didn't really have time to catch up as you can see basically what happens when this starts crossing right this blue line cross the yellow line um that gives us a Buy Signal for the macd right now by the time it crossed we were already up in this area so just in case sellers stepped in again I didn't want to get in because the risk reward was very bad I would have had to put my stop

loss below the volume so the risk reward just wasn't worth it so what I decided to do is I went back to the trend right I want to see the trend continue to form so how do we know if the trend continues to form well we're keep on making higher highs and we keep on making higher lows well that's exactly what happened right once we broke out of this right we made a new high on the day we made a new high from the pre-market so as you can see we broke out and then what

did we do we pulled back once again and this gave me the confirmation to actually get into the trade because what did we see again right we sold off and what happens big volume starts stepping in and this candle kind of Clos as a reversal candle these are high kanashi candles but if you look at the normal candles um it still kind of closed with a wick right so we know all kinds of buyers started stepping in here defending the trend if you also look at the 5 minute time frame as you can see on

this pullback and lined up right along with this 5 minute EMA this is a 21 length EMA um from here I kind of saw the macd was still in a buy zone right this blue line was above you can also look at the histogram the green bars are consistently going up and then on on a 2-minute time frame as you can see macd got close to a sell signal and then it started bouncing off of that so basically as soon as I saw this green h kanashi Candle on the 2-minute time frame this is when

I actually entered the position so I believe I got in at around 219 and I basically rode this up to 224 and then um then I fully exited my position at around 227 on this initial leg up now the reason why I got out of this trade was because this was a resistance area I had marked marked um obviously we broke through it and now we pulled back to it and now we're bouncing off it again but just in case a bunch of sellers stepped in right I wanted to respect the principles that I trade

with which is the levels right that told me to kind of get out of the trade the volume told me where to put my stop loss and be able to get in on that pullback we saw that buyers were defending the trend then obviously we knew the trend was up and the macd acted as a confirmation telling us that you know we're still in that b from this original pullback where we crossed um way down here okay as you can see it never crossed below we're still in this Buy Signal the entire time now the

second trade I took this morning was on gold Futures now keep in mind I'm a little bit new to trading gold so I did size down a bunch on this that's why I only made $100 on five accounts still a $500 trade but as you can see it was basically the same exact setup right what I'm doing is I'm looking at what the trend is I'm looking at where the volume gets protected right where are buyers defending based on this trend okay so we know the trend is up so we got to see where do

buyers defend the trend okay and then we want to look at the levels and use macd and a candle as a confirmation right very simple so first thing we know is basically if we kind of zoom out here Trend was up all pre-market and during the market open then what happened at around 9:00 eastern time we started to sell off and we sold off right to this previous support in pre-market this also lined up with this vwap area now if we go into a 2-minute time frame right we zoom in your more as you can

see what do you notice about when we start selling off right because again this is going to tell us when we could potentially start looking to enter the trade this is going to tell us where we can put our stop loss right what do we notice here big volume starts stepping in right all kinds of buyers are defending this trend right they're defending the selloff and that's why all kinds of volume comes in right we see a nice little Wick here we start trading sideways after that high volume so this low is a great place

where I know buyers will potentially defend my position right so this is where I can put my stop loss okay so we know the trend is up we know a bunch of volume just kicked in we didn't have any resistance for a while right and we're at premarket support our next resistance was way up here so now basically all I'm looking is for a macd confirmation and a 2-minute green candle CLE right since we're trying to take Longs here so what do we do we start trading sideways let the thing consolidate a little bit the

macd kind of helps us know when we're ready to really get that pushup so as you can see macd started crossing right here at around 9:30 eastern time we got these green candles this is where I went ahead and entered my position and basically I just rode this thing up over to where we had aggressive selling right here um obviously I could have held this longer to our resistance and even to new Highs but again this is like my third time in Gold ever so I'm just trying to get used to it a little bit

more get my feet wet um so I got a little scared to hold the trade all the way through but the confirmations were there the principles were there and that's the most important part so guys when you see all these different indicators and new strategies on YouTube you see this all the time don't get fooled by just the confirmation whatever people talking about whether it's a moving average a macd EMA line right all these different indicators out there remember they're just confirmation you want to always apply the principles and for example I can relate it

back to losing weight what is the principles of losing weight eat less eat healthy and move more those are the three principles of losing weight now the macd or all the different indicators you see on trading view on YouTube and all the indicators out there right this is kind of like if you compare this back to weight loss this is kind of like okay what kind of food are you eating okay what kind of exercise are you doing so sure there's certain exercise exercises that are more effective than others but if you exercise and you

don't eat so much and you eat healthy right you're probably going to lose weight but then you can start looking at okay maybe I should not eat this food I should start eating more of this food maybe I should do more of a keto diet maybe I should start doing more cardio more strength training right that's kind of the confirmation when we relate it back to trading okay but the principles of trading the trend volume and levels right that's the core things that really matter with any indicator you use and and real quick guys before
