Let’s explore another Stock Trading strategy with Buy Sell signals created on an Excel sheet. This is a semi-automated Excel sheet where you have to manually enter historical EOD data for the selected stock. Once this data is entered the Excel sheet would automatically indicate the Buy/Sell signal. The strategy is based on support and resistance and assumes that 3 consecutive equal lows may cause an upper breakout, and 3 consecutive equal highs may cause a lower breakout. It works well on all the low priced stocks (less than 200 rupees).
