Trading with the Belkhayate Timing based on its 5 areas
If you decide to enter a trade in the Middle Area (known also as the Neutral Zone) the chances of winning are fifty-fifty. You may earn profits, but you can lose as well. That is why it is often advised not to trade when the price moves in the Middle Area.
When the price falls into the Extreme Zone, that is the Green or Red areas, a change in the direction of the price is probable.
Open an up position when the price enters the Green Area.
Open a down trade when the price is in the Red Area.
The Outside Extreme Zones that is the Upper and Lower areas are hardly ever reached by the price. However, when this happens, you receive quite strong signals and you can open a trading position with a high probability of winning.
Open an up trade when the price falls into the Lower Area.
Open a down transaction when the price enters the Upper Area.
The signals produced by the Belkhayate Timing will be much stronger when you combine it with another indicator. The Bollinger Bands or the Alligator Indicator will form a perfect pair with the Belkhayate indicator.
