I've been using Parabolic SAR for a few days now and so far got a decent success. I decided to be adventurous and started trading a 4 Hour Silver chart (yesterday). But the trade went bust.

The PSAR showed a BUY signal and I went long at 32.75 in hopes that the price would move higher.

I'm starting to think that the ideal entry into a trade (during a BUY signal/upward trend) is to open a position at the low rather than at the high. Is this true?

Attached is the silver h4 chart. Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.

Psar is great during a trend, but not so good during sideways trading. You show two moving averages on your chart indicating a buy signal. Your Psar indicates a buy signal. The chart is showing a False Break Buy signal. But...if you were to add a momentum oscillator you would most likely see divergence, which suggests this buy signal is a little weak and you should wait for further confirmation. Try Williams Percent Range (WPR), and wait until WPR is above -20 for a buy, or below -80 for a sell. Good luck!
