1) The Perfect Curve is a counter-trend trading strategy that uses signals from the Bollinger Bands and RSI indicators on 1-minute, 5-minute or 10-minute currency pair charts to identify potential down and up trades. 2) For a down trade, signals occur when the asset price breaks above the top Bollinger Band and the RSI rises above 70; for an up trade, signals occur when the price breaks below the bottom Bollinger Band and the RSI falls below 30. 3) Trades should be opened on the "candle-in-candle" principle and held for the candle timeframe, with money management using either a fixed percentage of deposits per trade or a loss compensation system

TRADING TIME
5- or 10-minute candles are recommended for analyzing
and looking for signals.
Candles with a 1-minute timeframe will give signals more often,
but the signal quality will be worse

7. DOWN TRADE
First signal: : the asset chart broke the top Bollinger Bands line,
and the candle entered the zone with more than 30-50% of its body.
Clarification – for a stronger signal,
the candle’s body must be larger than that of previous candles.
Second signal: the RSI rose above the 70 mark.
Action: If these criteria coincide, it’s a good time to open a DOWN trade.

8. DOWN TRADE
The trade is opened on the “candle-in-candle” principle.
Clarification – if conditions for a signal are no longer being met
when the next candle starts to form
(the next candle started to form inside the Bollinger Bands channel),
don’t open a trade!
A new candle
also should start to form
in the overbought zone

11. STEP 4
SELECT A MONEY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Before you start using the strategy, decide on a money management system
and the trade amounts depending on your deposit.
FIRST OPTION:
TRADING A FIXED AMOUNT
If a down/up signal appears,
invest no more than 2-5% of your deposit in the trade
(for starters we recommend 1%).
The trade amount does not change
and remains the selected % of the deposit.
If the trade fails,
wait for the signal for the next entry point.

12. SECOND OPTION:
USE THE LOSS COMPENSATION SYSTEM
STEP 4
SELECT A MONEY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
If the trend keeps moving in the same direction
and goes deeper into the overbought/oversold zone
(the benchmark is the percentage on the RSI),
loss compensation system up to 3 steps can be used.
increase RSI

14. ANALYSTS’ RECOMMENDATIONS:
The greatest number of entry points in the strategy
occur in the period after trading sessions open and before they close
(after 10 am MST before 1:00 pm MST
and after 5 pm MST before 8:00 pm MST)
Avoid trading when the market starts going out of flat
Don’t trade during trading session openings
Avoid trading when important economic news is being released
