We all know classic MetaTrader 4 oscillators, such as Stochastic and Relative Strenght Index (RSI):<\/p>\n

But what happens if you try to combine the data of the two indicators into one? And if we add to this analysis of correlated currency pairs? You will get a hybrid indicator for manual trading Multi Stochastic.<\/p>\n

This indicator was created primarily to analyze the total movement of currency pairs in a particular currency in order to make a profit when trading a group of symbols. Multi Stochastic is suitable for those traders who are ready to go beyond trading one pair and start using a basket of orders.<\/p>\n

As we know, the market has a correlation of currency pairs and movement on a stronger currency can be observed periodically on all pairs with it. Thus, the release of important political news on the dollar will affect EURUSD, GBPUSD, N’DUSD, AUDUSD, USDJPY, USDCAD, USDCHF, ie. all pairs with USD, which is quite logical. By combining all these pairs into one indicator, we will be able to see a complete picture of the currency movement, as well as diversify the risks of trading a basket of orders from different currency pairs. The indicator is easy to install and set up. The graph shows the total curve of movement on the specified characters. Dark gray is marked with indicator data for each particular pair.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

As we can see, the indicator can build its readings separately on Stochastic or RSI, and calculate the average between them, which will reduce the number of signals, but increase the accuracy of the input. You can apply 8 different currency baskets in trading. Here are examples of the use of the indicator on the three main baskets using the example of classic strategies:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The main signal line of the indicator is fixed and is above the level of 80, it is an entry signal for a particular currency. All orders for groups of pairs with the same trading lot are opened at once:<\/p>\n

        The exit occurs either when the opposite level is crossed, or when a given value of the total profit or loss in the deposit currency is reached.<\/p>\n

                    Stop Loss and Take Profit in the system is not exposed, because trading is conducted by a basket of orders and it is not possible to calculate the desired value for each pair. When you leave, you definitely need to close all orders in the basket. You can use third-party advisors to maintain orders, which will forcibly close all your positions when you achieve a given percentage of income or loss from the deposit. The risk for the entire basket of orders should not exceed 5 of the deposit.<\/p>\n

                    Also for risk lovers in the system can be used averaging, i.e. additionally open a second basket of orders when a certain equity loss is reached.<\/p>\n
