Rules For A Buy Trade

The chart above illustrates how to trade the trendfinder system. The blue band trades above the red band. We look to buy inside the price channel. The Euro/Dollar closes inside the channel at 1.2880 and we open a buy trade. We immediately place a 200% ATR stop loss below our entry price. 17 days later, the currency pair closes above the blue band at 1.3932 and we exit our profitable position for a 1052 pip gain.
