This swing strategy uses 4hr charts and trendline breaks for entries. You look for a trendline with at least 3 taps, spaced by 6+ candles in between taps, drawn over 3+ weeks, and with a slope under 45 degrees when you're zoomed in on 3 months of price action on the chart. Once a candle closes past it, you use a market order to enter.
Stop is placed where the supporting “safety” trendline would intersect 4 candles after the break. TP is the first support/resistance level that offers 2R or more. You only get one attempt per trendline, and must be careful if trading futures during rollover periods. Ideal for traders who want mechanical, alert-based swing setups.
