"The title promises a 'best strategy' but delivers a basic indicator combo with a single demo session; average value with some filler."

AI Summary

This video presents a trading strategy for IQ Option that combines four indicators: two moving averages (SMA 6 and SMA 13), the Balance of Power (BoP) oscillator, and the Parabolic SAR. The creator demonstrates the setup and provides rules for entering trades on 15-second candles with 1-minute expiry, claiming a 4-for-4 win streak during the session.

[00:14]
Indicator Setup: First Moving Average

Set the first moving average to SMA with period 6, adjust color and line thickness, then save.

[00:52]
Indicator Setup: Second Moving Average

Add a second moving average with period 13, choose yellow color, thicken the line, and save.

[01:05]
Indicator Setup: Balance of Power

Add the Balance of Power indicator, set period to 6, choose EMA, set main color to yellow and baseline to gray.

[01:23]
Indicator Setup: Parabolic SAR

Add the Parabolic SAR indicator, leave periods unchanged, set color to white, and save.

[01:42]
Chart Settings and Asset Selection

Set candles to 15 seconds and trading time to 1 minute. Use the 'Options Blitz' asset class and select from pre-marked best currency pairs.

[02:20]
Entry Signal: Balance of Power Position

For an upward trade, the yellow BoP line must be above its central line. A line that has been fixed in the zone for a while is a stronger signal than a new line.

[03:22]
Entry Signal: Parabolic SAR Confirmation

For a strong signal, the Parabolic SAR white marks should be four or more in the direction of the trade (e.g., from bottom up for a buy). More marks indicate a more established trend.

[05:14]
Moving Average Cross Condition

The crossing of the moving average lines (yellow and blue) is only meaningful when the Parabolic SAR confirms the direction. After a cross, waiting a bit strengthens the signal.

[06:25]
Result and Additional Note

The session ended with 4 wins out of 4 trades. The BoP line must be correctly positioned at the moment of opening; subsequent movement away is acceptable.

The strategy relies on confluence of four indicators, with the Balance of Power and Parabolic SAR as primary triggers and moving averages as secondary confirmation. The creator emphasizes that the BoP line must be correctly positioned at entry, and that Parabolic SAR marks should be four or more for a strong signal.

Tutorial Checklist

1 00:14 Add a Moving Average indicator, set type to SMA, period to 6, adjust color and thickness, save.
2 00:52 Add a second Moving Average, set period to 13, choose yellow, thicken line, save.
3 01:05 Add Balance of Power indicator, set period to 6, choose EMA, set main color yellow and baseline gray.
4 01:23 Add Parabolic SAR indicator, leave periods default, set color to white, save.
5 01:42 Set chart to 15-second candles and trading time to 1 minute. Open 'Options Blitz' and select a preferred currency pair.
6 02:20 For a buy trade, confirm the BoP yellow line is above its central line; for a sell, below. Prefer a line that has been fixed in the zone for a while.
7 03:22 Check Parabolic SAR marks: for a buy, marks should be from bottom up and at least four in number; for a sell, top down and at least four.
8 05:14 If Parabolic SAR confirms direction, monitor the moving average cross (yellow and blue lines) and wait a short time after the cross for a stronger signal.
9 06:25 Open the trade with 1-minute expiry. Ensure BoP is correctly positioned at the moment of entry; subsequent movement away is acceptable.

[00:00] Hello friends. today I will share  with you a method overloaded with   various indicators but I think it's very  powerful. In this method all indicators  

[00:14] are created in combination with each other  and have passed many many tests. today   you will see what results this IQ option  strategy will give me. I start by setting   the first moving average. Here it  is. Let's lower the period to six.

[00:34] Let's leave SMA here. Change  the color, thicken the line,   and save. I'm going to set the moving average  again and lower the period to 13.

[00:52] Let's choose yellow. Thicken the line and  save. Let's type the third indicator and  

[01:05] it is balance of power. Let's lower the  period to six. I choose Emma here. the first color is yellow  and baseline color is gray.  

[01:23] And that's all. The fourth and the last  indicator of the method is parabolic sar. where I don't change the periods.  I just set the color to white and save it.  

[01:42] We have to set 15 second candles and one  minute trading time. Here it is.   Then I open a new currency pairs, options, blitz  and I have already marked the best currency pairs  

[02:01] where I trade. I want to tell you that this  method is of course loaded with indicators but I   think it is one of the easiest methods both  for a beginner trader and for existing traders.

[02:20] I think it's a great moment and I'm opening  a position for a one minute and $3,000 in   an upward direction. Friends, first of all, I  definitely watch the balance of powers yellow  

[02:36] main line which when I open a position in the  upward direction must be above its own middle central line and it's a better signal if  it's not a new line in this zone. If there  

[02:53] is a new line, that's not a problem either. it's a relatively weak signal but effective. I   think and as I already told you the main thing  is that it is fixed above its central line. I  

[03:09] think everything is going in a perfect way and  it's so good to have the first successful trade.

[03:22] I think I found another good moment. The  balance of power gives me a strong signal   because as I already told you the signal is  strong if the yellow line of the balance of  

[03:35] power is fixed for a long time in the  direction where we open a position.   It's also an essential factor that at this  time the white mark of the parabolic  

[03:49] sar should give a signal from the bottom  up and if these marks are more than four   marks it's better for this method. because in  this case the parabolic sar fixes its signal.

[04:07] I think we have a great situation  on the platform now and I think I'm   going to win. Of course. Of course. It's  great to have another successful trade.

[04:23] It's a great moment. And here I have a  balance of power signal and also have parabolic   sarxc signs in the top down direction. As I  already told you these signs should be four  

[04:40] or more in the case of a good signal.  In some methods on the contrary the newer the   parabolic sar signs are, the better. But  here more parabolic sar signs means a  

[04:53] more established trend in a specific direction  and a strong signal. As for the moving average,   I will try to consider opening the  next position and everything is so so

[05:14] perfect situation on the market.  Excellent. I recorded a pretty convincing win. Now I want to talk about the moving average  function in the method and this function works  

[05:35] very well only if the parabolic sar signs indicate a signal from top to bottom.   that is it turns out that the crossing of the  yellow line yellow and blue lines of the moving  

[05:52] average does not make any sense if the parabolic  sar does not indicate a signal. If we have these   signs in this case, I monitor the crossing of the  moving average lines. And here too, it is better  

[06:08] for a stronger signal to wait for time  after the crossing of the moving average lines. And what's going on?

[06:25] Just go down. Cool. It's so cool. Four wins out of  four trades in a row. It's unbelievable. Friends,   I missed one detail that needs to be taken into  account that the yellow line of the balance of  

[06:42] power at the specific moment when I open a  position should be above or below its own   center line depending on which direction I open  a position. But if it has moved down or in the  

[06:57] opposite direction after opening a position I  think that effect is not a problem. The main thing   is that it should be where it needs to be when  opening a position. that's I what I wanted to  

[07:12] say. I wish you a successful trading days and  see you in the next video. Thank you so much.
