What is Parabolic SAR?

This is a very interesting and useful indicator.

You can use it for the following purposes:

Trend

——We are in an uptrend when dots are below the candles.

——Downtrend is when dots are above the price.

Entry Signals

—— Buy signals ( Only in an uptrend market ). The first dot below the candle

—— Sell Signals ( Only in a downtrend market ). The first dot above the candle.

Stop loss

—— Long positions: Put the stop loss below the dot. ( You can move the SL every time to use as a trailing SL.)

—— Short positions: Put the stop loss above the dot. ( You can move the SL every time to use as a trailing SL.)

As I said before to avoid false entries as much as possible only trade in the direction of the long time trend. Use a trend indicator or big MA to determine the trend direction.

Settings for AF numbers ( Acceleration Factor ) can be changed but I prefer the default settings.
