What we should understand fully is that , a moving average just like its definition that is average data of a particular trend, so in this case of EMA that is exponential moving average where in our case we are making use of length 100 so as to clearly depict to us the market movement clearly.

You know , like i said that we can use this indicator to predict future market movement , so making use of 100 EMA will make it known to us what the trend has been doing in the past days average , then we implement it in our break line so as to know our sell or buy point in the trade.

Trend lines are the lines drawn at a point above or below on a chart, so as to eaily fugure out the market direction , that is the line drawn to know what the market price has been doing or what the market might do next.

Trading with trend line are as important as well as using the indicator, as this gets to bring confirmation of the indictaor you are using, which led you to able to confirm the direction of what the indication is giving.just as we know that making use of only indicator in a trade is really not advisible as they tends to show false signals sometimes but with trend lines you get to know the real direction of the market movement .

Just as we know there are bullish trend also know as well uptrend, and as well as bearish trend which we know as downtrend.

So drawing a trend line give confrmation to our indicator and give safety to our trading.

Question 4. ) - Explain the step by step of what needs to be taken into account to execute the EMA + Trendline Breakout strategy correctly.

In other to execute trade correctly using the EMA + Trendline Breakout strategy I will be explaining in 3 steps that would help in carring out a proper trade with this strategy.

Step1: Set up your EMA to 100, although traders can choose which best way to execute his trade depending on what one found Convenience with or used, to but here I will give trading strategy using 100 EMA, using this makes it easier for traders to able to quickly signal there buy or sell entry, as the indicator shows the market movemement in average phase direction, so setting our EMA in 100 will give detail of the direction in a sense where by if the price is above the 100 EMA, that shows a signal for buy and as well if reverse is the case, that is if the price is below the 100 EMA that is a signal for selling.

Example shown below;

Our buy entry is as shown from the image above when the price is above the 100EMA


Example2 shown below;

Example 2 shows our exit, that is when the price is below the 100 EMA, which correspond to when the market is already showing bearish and that should be the point we look for sales.


Step2: Understand the market movement. One interesting part of this strategy is that, it's in form of a cycle movement, and this make it more suitable as one can easily draw out a cycle and make a decision on that to predict what likely the market might do next.

Just as seen from the image above that, the market structure showing bullish trend and the structure keep maintaining the cycle. Note that when the price is in bullish and the distance in between the bullish trends are becoming smaller to the previous trend.


Example2

Example2 showing our market structure in bearish trend, as we can see when the price is in bearish the downtrend keep on getting bigger than the previous.


Step 3: Tracing trend lines : As this is the last step on how to correctly use the EMA with breaking, so far we've discuss the two steps below and have been interesting so far, we are going to wrap our steps with the trend line retracement and this is achieved in a way such that, we basically find a bearish position when our market is in bullish trend, that is when the indicator is above then we pin point the bearish line we draw to the next as to know when to make trade at high cost.

For example

From the picture above, we can see that the market is in bullish Trend which we then tends to draw the retracement line as to know when to trade more, which gives a little certainty that the market Is still in a good positioning considering the retracement line.


Example2

Question 5.) - What are the trade entry and exit criteria for the EMA + Trend Line Break strategy?

Entry Criteria: The first thing we should consider when making an entry into the market with the EMA + Break line strategy is to make sure the market price is moving above the 100 EMA, I e the trend is in bullish direction, then
We draw our trend line and wait for the market direction to take another turn then after we've successfully execute the two criteria mention then we make our entry placing a buy order in the market as soon as the breakout candlestick close on the trend.

For example :

Exit Criteria: This is just opposite of what we've discussed earlier, First we ensure that The price is moving below the 100 EMA I. E when the market is in bearish, then secondly we draw a trend line awaiting for the market to pick another direction afterwards we exit the market the moment the breakout candle stick close on the trend.

For this task I will be showing how I made my entry point to buy and as well my exit point to sell with the bullish and bearish trend. The trading platform I will be making olhse of is the trading view with the paper trading account and as well using the currency XRP/usdt for my bullish and bearish trend approach.

Bullish Trend Entry: Just as shown in the picture below, we can see that the market is showing bullish I. E the price movement is above the 100EMA indicator, and I as well drew a trend line mark my entry point and you can see that I made my entry when the breakout candle stick closes. Then I took a position to buy 26 unit of the XRP when the market was at $1. 1586, which I then wait for the market movement to determine how long am going to keep taking profit before I made my decision to exit.
