20 Pips a Day Strategy - Gold 20 Pips Strategy
The 20 pips price range moving average indicator strategy is used with the 15 minutes & 1H Charts. On this chart timeframes we use the 100 and 200 simple moving average MA trading indicator.
Both the 1 Hour & 15 minute trading chart time frames will use the 100 & 200 simple moving average MA indicator (SMA Trading Indicator) to determine the direction of the trend.
The 1 Hour chart time frame checks the long term direction of the market trend, upward trend or downwards trend, depending on the direction of the MAs. All trades taken should be in this direction.
We then use the 15 minutes price chart to find optimal point which to enter trades. Trades are opened only when price is within 10 or 20 pips range of the 200 simple moving average MA trading indicator, if price is not within this pip range the trades are not opened.

Stop loss can be adjusted to the amount of Pips that are suitable for your style method but to avoid being stopped out by normal Gold volatility its best to use 20 pips stop loss order.

Normally the 100 period simple moving average indicator will be within the 20 pips range of the 200 period simple Moving Average indicator.
