La stratégie Follow The Bear (FTB) est une stratégie de trading forex conçue pour capturer un schéma récurrent de l'action des prix de l'EUR/USD
La prémisse de base de la stratégie FTB est basée sur l'hypothèse que les bulls en euros et les algorithmes qui poussent le prix de l'EUR/USD vers le haut seront piégés lorsque la tendance haussière s'arrêtera ou s'inversera peu de temps après l'ouverture du marché européen/london.
La stratégie vise à capitaliser sur cette théorie baissière en surveillant les modèles de bougies inversées pendant le fuseau horaire européen (par exemple 2h à 7h).
Lorsque de telles bougies se forment, elles signalent que les longs pris au piège sont confrontés à la liquidation.
Après avoir passé tous les filtres, la stratégie entre dans des positions courtes sur la clôture de bougie avec un stop loss placé juste au-dessus du maximum et un objectif de profit calculé sur la base d'un ratio risque/rendement 1:1 (configurable).
Un détail clé est que la stratégie ne négocie que pendant la session européenne.
En tant que stratégie simple d'inversion de la moyenne à court terme, l'approche FTB présente plusieurs points forts clés:
Dans l'ensemble, en tant que stratégie de scalping nocturne à basse fréquence, la stabilité et la fiabilité du FTB sont assez attrayantes.
Bien que la stratégie présente des avantages, comme pour tout système de négociation, des risques existent, notamment:
Quelques moyens de lutter contre les risques:
Compte tenu de la nature fondamentale de la stratégie et des risques qu'elle comporte, certains domaines à améliorer:
La stratégie Follow the Bear fournit une approche simple de la vente à découvert à court terme en capitalisant sur les retracements alimentés par les taureaux de l'euro piégés.
