Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Intermediate - The Concept of Vortex Indicator Divergence and Using the Signals of Vi to Buy and Sell Any Two Cryptocurrencies

LINK/USDT
Using the vortex indicator to identify a buy signal, when the positive vortex (+VI) crosses higher than the negative vortex (-VI), it can be a very good buy signal. On the LINK/USDT 3 min chart, the positive vortex (+VI) crossed higher than the negative vortex (-VI) which was a good sign to buy because I am anticipating the market to move upwards and hit my take profit sell zone. I entered the market at 23.484 USDT and using the 1:1 risk-reward, I set my take profit at 23.672 USDT and my stoploss at 23.292 USDT. While the profit margin isn’t much, it is still a good profit for scalp trading.

For the sell signal, I also used the vortex indicator to identify the sell signal, when the positive vortex (+VI) crosses lower than the negative vortex (-VI), it can be a very good sell signal. On the BNB/USDT 5 min chart, the positive vortex (+VI) crossed lower than the negative vortex (-VI) which was a sell signal for me to put a sell order. I am anticipating the positive vortex (+VI) line to spread apart from the negative (-VI) line, so I placed a sell order and waiting for the market to move downwards and hit my take profit zone. I entered the market at 33.32 USDT and using the 1:1 risk-reward, I set my take profit at 332.12 USDT and my stoploss at 334.52 USDT.
