Hello All,

My self @stream4u, I am from India and one of your crypto professors, welcome you all to my class.

This is my fifth lecture on Technical study. In this course, we will learn another strong Indicator which is SuperTrend, in this, we will see how SuperTrend can help us in trading and investment, how it shows signals for Sell and Buy accordingly what will be the safer side to buy. To cover this indicator, I have taken TradingView Topic in the last course so that everyone will know basic about TradiingView platform and by Homework, you will get some hands-on experience. Because I am not sure if SuperTrend Indicator will be available on your trading chart platform.

It's a humble request to all interested, first understand the course then please read the homework task 2-3 times, make a homework task that includes all requested topics, and before publish make sure all topics are covered. Give your best to explore it as much as possible and in simple terms.

For your future, try for the information, charts, graphs available in your post is not taken from other sources and it is your own.

Let's begin our 5th class.


SuperTrend Indicator.

First, let me tell you why it is important to learn about SuperTrend Indicator & Why I have selected this topic?

So, we have learned Support & Resistance, how Support Become Resistance and Resistance Become Support, Double Top, Double Bottom, Higher High - Lower Low, 200 MA, according to these all how to place the orders.

Now suppose when you see any assets and you noticed that their buying level/signal is already gone, now it is going up and you missed that chance, here our rule says Never Enter In A Running Market & Work With Patience. that is true. But now SuperTrend is one of the Indicators can actually help you in a Running market, just need small patience if you use it in my way.

About SuperTrend.

SuperTrend Indicator is one of the very simplest indicators but having is a good success rate. This indicator can be used in a day trading like Intraday or we can also use it for the long term, we just need to adjust the candle chart time frame according to our trade like 5 to 15 minutes for Intraday and 1 day for the long term.

According to the chart time you have set, the SuperTrend will give you the Buy and Sell signals. As we know there is nothing 100 accuracies in Indicator and sometimes they give false signals so it is applicable for SuperTrend Also, but there are very less chances that SuperTrend gives false signals.

SuperTrend is a simple line that follows the price, the SuperTrend line can be seen above the current price OR below. When it is above that means it's indicated the Sell-side, and when it is below that means it has indicated for the Buy-side. Take a look at the below image.

SuperTrend Buy & Sell Indications.

Now, there are many opinions, information, tricks you can find that available on the Internet, however, in the end, they are the same and nothing is 100%, but as per my personal experience, I can show you how we can use Supertrend and its signals, and how safely we can trade on it to secure our Capital.


How To Use SuperTrend Indicator?

BUY Side

Example OF SuperTrend Support Line

According to the above image and as I said when SuperTrend Line is below the current price, then wait till the price comes down to near the SuperTrend line, you can place the buy side somewhere near to that line. SuperTrend line has strong support and it has the capacity to take the price back to the previous high in a short time.

We can see how the price action respected to the SuperTrend Support Line and then went upside.

SELL Side

Example OF SuperTrend Resistance Line.

According to the above image, we can see how price touches the SuperTrend Resistance Line and then came down. So when you have already bought somewhere at a low point OR you want to go for a fresh Sell trade, a buyer can think to exit when it is touching to the SuperTrend Resistance Line and here Seller can take their fresh sell entry.


Let's See SuperTrend Indicator On 1-Day Candle Chart.


You all know that the big fall in Crypto on 11th January 2021, if not then you can check now on the chart with 1 Day candle. On this day Bitcoin, Ethereum, and major assets fall badly in just one day. I was pretty sure that many have a square of their position who entered in a bull running market when BTC, ETH, and other assets running up fast and they square off the position either in loss or with a small profit, but in next few days the price was back on last high and went more up, now everyone like us thinks why I did square off.

We see many times that even after assets fall badly, sometimes they cover in few days and come back to the last high point.

Now I will show you two same charts but one is without SuperTrend and another one is with SuperTrend, you can find the difference and as I mentioned above how to use it, according to that you will see now how it is helpful. (This is a chart for 11th January 2021 hence concentrate on that day candle only.)

BTC Chart Without SuperTrend.
BTC Chart With SuperTrend.


From the above two images, you will see what I am trying to show. Instead of entering a running market with a lot of pressure in mind, also when no chart pattern to help how SuperTrend can give you an accurate support line where you can think for a buy. Now see what happened next after this(considering the second image with SuperTrend).

BTC Chart With SuperTrend, See where was the Support Line and now where is current price.

The SuperTrend Support level showed at near $31000, now the current price is near $50000 and already high point made at $57000.

It's difficult to show all examples but similar to the BTC example you can find the same pattern of SuperTrend in Ethereum and many other assets for that same day.


False Indications.


As I mentioned, like other indicators there are possible chances for false signals in SuperTrend too. Now will see how false indication looks in SuperTrend Indicator what we can do in such a scenario.

SuperTrend Indicator False Indications

In this image, we can see after the indication of buy how quickly it indicated about Sell, then next again happen same. So in such a scenario, don't get panic.

Because of such a scenario, I have suggested taking a buy or sell trade or square off the position when the price touches its support or resistance. Don't take trade immediately when it indicates buy and sell, wait & watch till the price comes to its support or resistance when it comes then go for your trade.


STOPLOSS.


We will set Stoploss in SuperTrend based on the last Support as we have learned how to find the last 2 supports.

If you have taken buy trade, sometimes SuperTrend break and indicate Sell signal, do not consider that as we learn Support and based on that how to find last 2 lows to set stop loss, in SuperTrend you will need to do same, do not go with the sell signal and instead of that find last 2 lows for Stoploss.

There is some fluctuation possible when SuperTrend shows a Sell signal but still, it is near to its support hence major chances that even it shows a sell signal many times prices went up in some time.

You can add SuperTrend Indicator on your TradingView chart, and below are its settings, in Style so that you can set as you want.

Excellent blog and I can recommend anyone using Technical Analysis in their trading to have a read.

Great work and well done.

Upvoted and resteemed.

Stephen

Thank You.

Thanks @stream4u. Your teachings have been impacting. I have learnt so much.

But my question here is that is it immediately the superTrend indicator indicates sell that a person who have bought will sell or the person will wait for it to go up using the different time frame to check the future movement of the coin?

Hi @tmighty

Thank you for raising the concern. As I mentioned in a post, "If you have taken buy trade, sometimes SuperTrend break and indicate Sell signal, do not consider that".

Let me try to clear more on this, if a person using SuperTrend Indication then don't make a buy or sell decision immediately when Supertrend Indicate Buy Or sell. I have indicated in a circle where you can buy like when price come down near to the support line and this will happen after it is already indicated a Buy signal, so will wait for buy till the price come down to the support line and not immediately when Supertrend Indicate Buy.

Now your concern when Sell or it is good to wait to see if it goes more up, so it completely depends on that person, if he is in very good profit then he can sell and no need to take a risk. If not then where he can take a chance for more hold, see below.

Look at the first circle and if a person has already brought more down from this level, so after sell indication he can wait because when it tries to go up so it is also possible that it will break again and shows buy, but as per the above image when it is clear that the price is not able to break even after trying by 2,3 candles and then look coming down, at this level he can take the decision to sell.

I have also mentioned that the STOPLOSS set based on Support and not a Sell indication from SuperTrend. If you have checked the STOPLOSS section in Course 3 so in the end, I have shown how to set a stop-loss.

Similarly when you have brought at down level with the help of SuperTrend, keep checking how many supports are created after you brought it and according to that you can hold your position, when 1 or 2 support break and as per above image it is not going up, coming down from SuperTrend resistance, then best to exit instead of holding more otherwise all profit will turn to either no loss no profit OR loss.

I hope I have not confused you :) and clear your concern. Still, if you have any doubts or need more clarity please don't be hesitate and feel free to ask.

Thank You.

@stream4u, I really enjoyed this part of your lecture. Infact it was detailed and straight to the point. However please, go thru my post and answer this pertinent question from me. If you observe, my supertrend is a bit different from yours, still let me know if where i intend to buy and sell are correct? Also tell me other things that would be beneficial to me considering my charts.

On the binance platform, there are three lines that follows the price, one yellow, one purple and the other pink, which of them is the SUPERTREND indicator?

Another question is that for the different time on the trading chats, the indicator behaves different. It can be above the price for 30 minutes and be below for 15 minutes. Which one do one who wants to buy follow and why?

Hi @tmighty

Regarding "Different time and Which one do one who wants to buy follow and why?"

I guess I have already covered this in Course 2 under section Which Time Frame Of a Candle Chart We Should Apply?, please check the Course 2 once which will give you detailed information on this. The indicator behaves according to the Candle Time Frame chart. So it will show buy as per 5 min but not as per 15 min, also price level is at a different position.

In short, I will suggest if you are buying based on 5 min candle then your all trade should pe perform based in 5 min, like this, you have to decide under which time frame of candle you want to take a trade and follow only that one.

Here you can try to play one game but it requires patience and
some experience. You can try to take buy side with any time frame but before that check where are the resistance and support in the different time frames, so that you will come to know at which levels you can hold trade and possibilities to trend change, but as I said to use this it needs some experience as you may need to switch time frame quickly.

Regarding, "binance platform, there are three lines that follows the price, one yellow, one purple and the other pink, which of them is the SUPERTREND indicator?", it will difficult for me to understand, hence share the screen shot and let me know how you are applying it on Binance so that I will try the same from my side and then I will answer you this.

Hence, I recommend using TradingView, it has a clear chart view. That's why I covered TradingView topic in course 4.

Thank You.

Thank you.

I present the link to my task solution of the Week 5- SuperTrend!

Very interesting and educational post I love it.

Hola estimado profesor @stream4u acá presento mi tarea
https://steemit.com/hive-108451/@clavel/steemit-crypto-academy-or-course-5-by-stream4u-or-all-about-supertrend-indicator-tarea5

Me gustaría conocer un poco más acerca del uso de los parámetros, el por qué de esos valores específicamente, existe una forma matemática o una expresión para medir la volatidad, disculpe mi pregunta, puede sugerirme donde puedo leer de esto. Muchas Gracias por su atención.

verified, I guess I have just replied, wheren in I draw a line and at the same level buy signal generated. So it is based on history where there was a support or resistance, the buy and sell signal generate.

gracias por su atención.
