Guide to Trading Strategies

Introduction: 

  • With so many markets to trade, how do you know what strategies work best for each?

  • In this guide, we’ll break down suitable strategies for forex, crypto, stocks, and other major markets.

Forex Strategies 

For currencies, leverage means high volatility. This favors strategies like:

  • Breakout – Trade accelerations in volatility after ranges or consolidation.

  • Momentum – Follow trends amplified by interest rate differentials.

  • News-based – Macro moves based on GDP, NFP reports, etc.

Crypto Strategies

Crypto’s extreme volatility suits strategies like:

  • Momentum – Ride the waves of speculation and hype/panic cycles.

  • Swing – Catch major swing highs and lows in a range-bound market.

  • Arbitrage – Exploit pricing inefficiencies across exchanges.

 

Stock Strategies 

For stocks, broader economic shifts dictate trends, favoring strategies like:

  • Fundamental – Analyze financials like P/E ratios and growth.

  • Chart patterns – Trade tactical formations like wedges, channels.

  • Quantitative – Data-driven approaches based on factors like valuation

 

Conclusion: 

Match strategies to each market’s unique attributes.

A momentum system in crypto may fail in stocks.

Stay flexible and realize strengths and weaknesses vary.

Combining complementary strategies expands opportunities.
