# Enigma + DCDM

The [FlowMaster™ Enigma](https://docs.algoboxpro.com/fundamentals/flowmaster-tm-enigma) combined with the [DCDM](https://docs.algoboxpro.com/strategies/dcdm) strategy creates a powerful trading approach. When the DCDM appears, it significantly strengthens the Enigma signal, potentially doubling the move. This confluence provides you the option to set your take profit at the DCDM yellow target line for a potentially filled target.

Combine DCDM with Enigma for a powerful trading strategy. Set targets at the yellow DCDM line and potentially double your move, making it ideal for larger plays.

In certain cases, you can set stops and targets at the levels indicated when a DCDM is plotted. This approach can potentially lead to a better risk-to-reward ratio, tighter stop loss and reduced risk, especially when adding to an existing Enigma trade upon the appearance of a DCDM.
