Simple Price Based Forex trading system — an interesting system that was developed by one of the Forex traders recently. It works for any pair (though, EUR/USD is recommended) and in all market conditions. No indicators are required to trade using this system. All you need is the ability to set up the pending orders.
Features
- Position-based trading for any state of the market.
- Trailing stop protects profit.
- Lack of statistical proof.
How to Trade?
- Higher timeframe chart is recommended as each trading setup requires some calculations based on the latest bar.
- Key number should be calculated first. It's based on the current price. For the quotes with 4 digits after a dot the key value is the current price multiplied by 10 and then rounded. For the quotes with 2 digits after a dot the key value is the current price divided by 10 and the rounded.
- Place pending Buy order at Current Price + (2 × Key value).
- Place pending Sell order at Current Price − (2 × Key value).
- Place stop-loss for pending Buy order at Open Price − (2 × Key value).
- Place stop-loss for pending Sell order at Open Price + (2 × Key value).
- Take-profit for both orders is calculated similarly to the key value but the current price should be multiplied by 100 for the quotes with 4 digits after a dot and shouldn't be divided for the quotes with 2 digits after a dot. In both cases the values should be rounded.
- Trailing stop is also applied to the orders and is set to 2.5 × Key value.
- Don't forget to cancel the untriggered orders after the timeframe period ends.
- If this sounds too complicated, see the example below.
Example

Let's calculate the entry conditions and parameters for an example presented on the chart:
- It's a EUR/USD H4 chart.
- The current price is 1.1202, the current bar's open price is 1.1209.
- There are 4 digits after a dot in the quotes for EUR/USD. That means that the Key value is calculated as
1.1202 × 10 = 11.2. Rounding it results in 11 pips. - Pending Buy order level is calculated as 1.1202 + (2 × 11) = 1.1224.
- Pending Sell order level is calculated as 1.1202 − (2 × 11) = 1.1180.
- Stop-loss for pending Buy order is calculated as 1.1209 − (2 × 11) = 1.1187.
- Stop-loss for pending Sell order is calculated as 1.1209 + (2 × 11) = 1.1231.
- Take-profit for all pending orders is calculated as 1.1202 × 100 = 112.0 or, after rounding, 112 pips.
- Take-profit for pending Buy order is set to 1.1224 + 112 = 1.1336.
- Take-profit for pending Sell order is set to 1.1180 − 112 = 1.1068.
- Trailing stop for both orders is set to 2.5 × 11 = 27.5 or, after rounding, 28 pips.
