- Style: Reversal-based entries aligned with trend direction
Buy Setup
- The Wolfe Wave Finder plots a bullish Wolfe Wave pattern on the chart (points 1 to 5 complete, with entry near point 5).
- The Forex Trend Sniper Dominator confirms an uptrend (e.g., blue or green confirmation bar).
- Enter a buy trade at the close of the candle once both conditions are met.
Sell Setup
- The Wolfe Wave Finder plots a bearish Wolfe Wave pattern (entry near point 5 for downward projection).
- The Forex Trend Sniper Dominator confirms a downtrend (e.g., red confirmation bar).

Trade Management
- Stop Loss: Below the recent swing low (buy) or above the swing high (sell).

Why This Strategy Works Great
The Wolfe Wave Finder is excellent at detecting high-probability reversal zones based on geometric wave formations.
However, reversal trades are most effective when they align with confirmed directional bias.
By combining Wolfe Wave entries with the trend confirmation from the Forex Trend Sniper Dominator, this strategy filters out low-probability setups and focuses on trades with clear directional context.
