I have been in the world of trading for a while, and over the years there have always been controversies over the best, whether to use a single strategy for trading or a combination of strategies.
Personally, I don't have issues with that, many of my trading strategies can stand alone. But experience chose for me over time. I now combine trading strategies and it has helped me to better filter my trading signals for greater performance. And if any of that strategies did not confirm the same signal, I do not go for it.
What about you, what is your preference, and why?
There isn't many. There is always 2-3 at Max. Mostly because of different market situation. You have different strategy for a trending market, a different strategy for a consolidating market and a very different strategy for a sideways market. You first recognise wait for the trigger then recognise whether this trigger is useful for this type of market or not and then you eventually go into that particular trade.
