Execute Line Signal + BOS/CHOCH Forex Indicator MT4 Strategy
This strategy pairs the Execute Line Forex Signal Indicator for MT4 with the BOS-CHOCH Metatrader 4 indicator.
The goal is simple: use market structure to define the bias and use Execute Line to time entries inside that bias.
The Execute Line gives momentum confirmation.
The method relies on checking a higher timeframe for bias and trading lower timeframe confirmations.
That keeps you aligned with the bigger move while still catching good intraday swings.
Use the system on 15m, 30m, and 1H charts. Confirm the main bias on a higher timeframe and take signals on a lower one that aligns.
This approach suits active day traders and swing traders who want clear rules and manageable risk.
Test on major pairs and liquid crosses, and keep position sizing conservative while you build confidence.
Buy Entry Rules
- Higher timeframe trend: the higher timeframe must show an uptrend or a confirmed break of structure to the upside on BOS-CHOCH.
- BOS-CHOCH should not show a recent bearish change of character after the last break of structure on the higher timeframe.
- Execute Line confirmation: wait for a yellow bullish Execute Line line close on the chosen lower timeframe.
- Entry: enter at the close of the bullish signal candle or on a small retrace to nearby support or a moving average.
- Stop loss: place SL below the most recent swing low or the recent low flagged by the Execute Line. Size the SL using ATR for the pair.
- Typical SL ranges: 20–45 pips on 15m, 40–90 pips on 1H, depending on pair volatility.
- Take profit: target 1.5x to 2.5x the risk for a single-leg trade. Consider scaling out at 1R to secure profits and leave a runner for 2R or beyond.
Sell Entry Rules
- Higher timeframe trend: the higher timeframe must show a downtrend or a confirmed break of structure to the downside on BOS-CHOCH.
- Character check: BOS-CHOCH should not show a bullish change of character after the last break of structure on the higher timeframe.
- Execute Line confirmation: wait for a purple bearish Execute Line line close on the chosen lower timeframe.
- Entry: enter at the close of the bearish signal candle or on a small pullback to resistance.
- Stop loss: place SL above the most recent swing high or the recent high flagged by the Execute Line. Use ATR to size according to pair volatility.
- Take profit: target 1.5x to 2.5x the initial risk. Use partial exits to lock gains and trail the remainder.
Advantages
- Combines market structure and momentum for clearer entries.
- Clear rules reduce hesitation and emotional decisions.
- Works on multiple timeframes and across many currency pairs.
- Easy to backtest and refine on MT4 using both indicators together.
- Scalable: you can tighten or widen stops by timeframe and ATR without changing the core rules.
Drawbacks
- Performance varies by pair and session; some pairs need wider stops or fewer trades.
- Discipline is required to stick to stops and not move them impulsively.
- Requires time to learn BOS and CHOCH identification reliably across timeframes.
Case Study 1 — EUR/USD 30m (Buy)
Setup
A higher timeframe showed a clear uptrend. BOS-CHOCH marked a break of structure to the upside.
No bearish change of character followed.
Price retraced slightly to a support zone, and an Execute Line indicator bullish line formed on the 30-minute chart.
Trade
- Entry: 1.0752 at the bullish Execute Line signal candle close on the 30m chart.
- Stop loss: 1.0702, 50 pips below entry.
- Take profit: 1.0827, 75 pips (1.5:1 R:R).
- Outcome: TP was hit after a steady run. Partial scaling at 1R improved risk management. Net +75 pips.
Case Study 2 — GBP/JPY 15m (Sell)
Setup
BOS-CHOCH showed a break of structure to the downside on the higher timeframe.
After a pullback that tested resistance, Execute Line gave a bearish signal line on the 15m chart.
Trade
- Entry: 186.20 at the bearish signal candle close.
- Stop loss: 186.65, 45 pips above entry.
- Take profit: 185.20, 100 pips (≈2.2:1 R:R).
- Outcome: partial exit at 1R, stop moved to breakeven, final TP reached later. Net +100 pips.
Strategy Tips
- Always confirm bias on a higher timeframe before trading lower timeframe signals. This reduces noise and false entries.
- Use ATR to size stops and position size. Volatile pairs need wider SLs and smaller position sizes.
- Avoid trading right before major economic releases. News can quickly flip structure and invalidate setups.
- When testing live, start with small positions or a demo account until you prove consistency.
