Parabolic SAR | The Easiest Way to Pick Trading Direction in Olymp Trade

Unlike the other trend indicators in this eBook (Download Free eBook Here) – showing when a trend begins, the parabolic SAR shows when a trend ends.

So, how does it work?

The parabolic SAR works by imposing dots on your chart to show potential price reversals.

Ideally, you will see the dots form from below your chart – for an upward trend and above the chart for a downward trend.

How to Trade and Make Profits Using Parabolic SAR.

There is nothing complicated about using this tool.

In fact, it is the simplest to use of all trend indicators.

Just sell when the dots are stretched above your chart and buy when you see the dots below your chart.

That’s pretty much it.

You should however use this indicator on trending markets to see better results.

How to Set-Up The ParaBolic Sar in Olymp Trade.

4 Steps Involved.

Login to your Olymp Trade Account.

Or register if you don’t already have an account.

Click on the indicator tab on top of your chart – it’s something that looks like this –

All the indicators will pop up on your left sidebar.

Click on Parabolic Sar – It is the forth indicator in the list.

You will now see dots imposed on your chart. Some from the top; others from the bottom.

How to change settings.

You can use the parabolic SAR without changing anything.

But if you want to make changes, just click on the pencil button in step one as shown in the image above.

And when a new window pops up on your left sidebar. Click on the plus or minus buttons to increase or reduce your periods as shown in the image above.

Olymp trade recommends that you leave the periods at 0.02.

Why?

Increasing the periods will give you more signals but your they will be less accurate. 

Decreasing the periods will give you less signals and most of them will be accurate.

You can use the third button to increase or reduce the weight of the dots.

And the forth button to change the color of the dots.

Note: – When the Parabolic SAR dots are close  to your chart, there is likelihood that the current trend will reverse soon. When the dots are far away from the chart, then this is an indication that the trend is stable.

Ps. Try to trade on the trend direction when using this tool.

You can also get more accurate results when you look at it from this angle.
