Trading System : Using KPL with MIDAS curve

Firsly, the KPL Swing is a simple trend following mechanical trading system. It automates the entry and exit signal. This trading system is very simple and easy to use. It works across multiple time frames and does not require any in-depth knowledge of TA. In KPL System no targets are given as no one knows how high (or low) the stock price will reach. A trailing stoploss locks in the gains and removes emotions from trading. Secondly, the the MIDAS System. The MIDAS system of technical market analysis is based on the concept of Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). VWAP calculations is being used widely worldwide.

KPL Swing trading system

When Stock`s Price increases everyday, the stock holder becomes worried. Of course he should be worried, and before the scripts start falling he should lock his profit. But who knows when it would start falling? Nobody (but smart money sometimes knows). So we need indicators like RSI, OBV, or stochastic. The problem is, even with weak RSI, OVB, or horizontally straight stochastic a script may go up further. So taking profit in fear of falling some times becomes cause of pain, or less profit. So I would prefer a system like KPL swing to give me an exit signal first. Then I would exit. I would wait and see how much a bullish share can grow.

So I w...
