Market Gave us clues today…
845am EST
– Start with the Dollar Index Futures, trading at their highs, in a somewhat tight trading range.
o Dollar is setting up for a DX pattern, but we have a few things to concern us:
• We consider to be the ZERO Line (nothing has changed)
• We call this the chop zone, and we want to ONLY take trades at the extremes.
o Breaker long set up 2nd, but we didn’t see the big money enter at our trigger location
– Crude oil futures trading sideways, and we are right in the middle of the trading range
o ‘Don’t trade the middle’ so watch your 34-range chart for the big picture to show us where we are.
– We saw another nice 2 step short on the crude oil @ 937 am est
o We liked this pattern for three reasons
At the high of day, perfect spot for a 2-step short
Momentum was NOT oversold, but in a perfect spot, pointing down
Saw big money sellers on our filtered time & sales window
– Don’t forget, im demonstrating this on a fast timeframe, when YOU may want to use a slower timeframe
o Last week we had 4 nice BIG winners off slower timeframes
60-minute
34-range
13-range
Lots of potential for EVERYONE! Fast or slow, these patterns don’t care
– Slower timeframe
o USE different ATM strategies
Log into your adv course, and watch the members training from may 15 2010 on Slower timeframe entries
o Benefits = less chop and less noise
More potent set-ups, each trade will be higher %
Same LOW risk/reward ratio
o Downside = fewer patterns
Still have the same low Risk/reward ratio
Different charts use different trade management:
Scalping Method – always the same, we set it and forget it
– Automated trade management takes care of everything for us
Slower Timeframe Method (Wave)
– Use slightly different trade management depending on the trade
o Once you enter the trade, place your stops and targets according to your rules.
