MT4 Scalping Strategy: Fibonacci Pivots & Zero Lag Moving Average

This scalping strategy combines the Fibonacci Pivots Forex Indicator MT4 and the Zero Lag Moving Average Indicator MT4 to identify high-probability entry points in the forex market.

The Fibonacci Pivots indicator calculates key support and resistance levels based on Fibonacci ratios, while the Zero Lag Moving Average provides a responsive trend-following signal with minimal lag.

Together, they offer a robust framework for short-term trading on lower timeframes, such as the 5-minute or 15-minute charts.

Buy Entry Rules

  • Price closes above the central pivot point, indicating bullish sentiment.
  • The Zero Lag Moving Average line is below the price, confirming upward momentum.
  • Enter a buy position at the market open of the next candle.
  • Set stop loss just below the central pivot point.
  • Take profit at the first Fibonacci resistance level (R1) or higher, depending on market conditions.

Sell Entry Rules

  • Price closes below the central pivot point, indicating bearish sentiment.
  • The Zero Lag Moving Average line is above the price, confirming downward momentum.
  • Enter a sell position at the market open of the next candle.
  • Set stop loss just above the central pivot point.
  • Take profit at the first Fibonacci support level (S1) or lower, depending on market conditions.

Advantages

  • Provides clear entry and exit signals based on objective criteria.
  • Combines Fibonacci levels with trend-following indicators for enhanced accuracy.
  • Suitable for short-term trading on lower timeframes, ideal for scalping.
  • Zero Lag Moving Average reduces lag, allowing for quicker response to price changes.

Drawbacks

  • It may produce false signals during low volatility or sideways market conditions.
  • Requires active monitoring and quick execution, which may not suit all traders.
  • Not foolproof; risk management is essential to mitigate potential losses.

Case Study 2: USD/CHF 15-Minute Chart
