I’ve learned through my years of trading that having a volatility 75 index strategy goes beyond just using a few indicators. Understanding market structure is the key to developing a successful volatility 75 index strategy.

The act of naked trading, which corresponds to this market structure, necessitates the employment of standard MT5 platform tools like horizontal lines, trend lines, Fibonacci tool support and resistances, chart patterns, numerous time frames, and more.
