DOWNLOAD IT NOW Stocks in a price up trend do not advance in a straight line. There are always price corrections or retrenchments along the way. Like the tide there is an ebb and ow in the price movements in stocks. This is the natural order of the markets . . . stocks advance and then the price declines inevitably as pro t taking occurs. Stocks can remain in an overall price up trend as these price declines occur as long as the price decline is not severe enough to cause the 50-Day EMA line to cross below the 100Day EMA line which signals a trend reversal from a price up trend to a price down trend. When this occurs, a stock should be sold. The Keltner Channels are a valuable timing tool as the channels can help us prevent buying stocks when they are in an overbought condition. When stocks become overbought they are vulnerable to pro t taking and minor price declines within the context of remaining in a price up trend. The Keltner Channels can help us avoid buying stocks when they become overbought and instead buy stocks and call options when they become oversold. Let’s take a look at an example of the Keltner Channels and how they can help us select our entry point. The price chart below displays the daily price movement for Apple stock along with the three Keltner Channels. There is an upper channel, middle channel (which is the dotted line) and a lower channel. When a stock trades near the upper channel it is an indication the stock is becoming overbought and will most likely encounter selling pressure and then trade back down towards the middle or lower channel. When a stock trades near the lower channel it is an indication the stock is becoming oversold and will most likely encounter buying pressure and then trade back up towards the middle or upper channel. If you are considering buying Apple stock or weekly call options, you don’t want to buy if the stock is trading near the upper channel as there is a good chance the stock will encounter selling pressure near the upper channel and then decline in price. It is better to wait until the stock trades near the middle or lower channel before buying. This results in a better entry as the stock most likely will trade back up towards the upper channel. Note: Apple trade examples were taken prior to the Apple 7 for 1 stock split and prices are not split adjusted.

Circled below are examples of Apple stock trading above the upper channel. When a stock is trading above the upper channel it is better to wait for the stock to decline towards the middle or lower channel before buying. When a stock is trading near the middle or lower channel there is a good probability that it will rally back towards the upper channel. In each of these examples, after the stock traded above the upper channel it declined back towards the middle or lower channel within a week or two except for the example that occurred in mid-July. In this example, the retracement took a little longer as the stock traded near the upper channel in mid-July and did not retrace back to the middle channel until mid-August. This happens occasionally in strong bull markets. Currently Apple is trading above the upper channel and has stayed above the upper channel for several weeks not presenting any buying opportunities. In our experience, this is very rare. Currently Apple stock would have to decline to about 236 before it touches the middle channel.

Actual Trade Examples Using the Keltner Channels Our brokerage account trade con rmations below list purchases we made for Apple stock. The con rmations list the date of purchase and purchase price.

We used the Keltner Channels to help select our purchase entry point. We bought Apple stock and call options when the stock was trading near the middle or lower channel which lowers my entry risk of buying stock when it is overbought and due for a price correction. These actual entry points are circled below. You can see from the price chart that Apple stock did not decline in price much below our entry points. Using the Keltner Channels to help time our entry points reduced the risk of our stock purchase. With Apple stock trading near 249 we now have a substantial pro t for our stock purchases.

Timing Our Stock and Call Option Purchases We have found the Keltner Channels to be a valuable timing tool that helps us select a low risk entry point for our stock and call option purchases. Buying a stock when it is trading near the lower or middle channel may help prevent buying stocks when they are in an overbought condition and are vulnerable to price declines. We like to buy a stock when the stock is trading near the middle or lower channel and is oversold. When a stock is oversold there is a good probability that it will rally back towards the upper channel providing us with a lower risk buy point. We avoid buying a stock when it is trading near or above the upper channel and is overbought. When stocks become overbought they are vulnerable to pro t taking and will most likely encounter selling pressure. The price charts that follow show examples of entry points for call option purchases using the Keltner Channels. The stocks in these examples were giving is an EMA ‘Buy’ signal and retraced near the Middle or Lower Keltner Channel. Our brokerage account Transaction Reports show the date that we purchased a call option and that date is circled on the price chart above. Notice how the Keltner Channels allowed us to get low risk entry points for our call purchases as the price of the stock rallied after our call option purchase.

HIGH PROFIT CANDLESTICK SIGNALS AND PATTERNS By Stephen W. Bigalow, CandlestickForum.com

As long as buyers and sellers have been trading the markets, two predominant sentiments have been in play: fear and greed. Centuries ago, Japanese rice traders developed the candlestick method to graphically depict trader sentiment. It has worked successfully for hundreds of years, and still works today. Candlestick analysis can help you make better trading decisions about investor sentiment in the markets. The Japanese rice traders didn’t just become wealthy using candlesticks, they created legendary wealth trading a basic commodity. This method works for any trading instrument as long as the basic human emotions of fear and greed are involved – which pretty much covers every market. Candlestick analysis prepares you to be ready for big price moves based on historic results of speci c signals and patterns. It’s simply a graphic depiction of investor sentiment. The Japanese rice traders gave us not only the bene t of knowing what the signals look like, but they also described what the investor sentiment was behind each signal There are 50-

The T-Line has some very simple rules: If you see a candlestick BUY signal ABOVE the T-Line, you are in an UPTREND If you see a candlestick SELL signal BELOW the T-Line, you are in a DOWNTREND Stochastics are used to indicate overbought and oversold conditions.

Let’s see how these indicators work with candlestick patterns:

In this daily chart, the stochastics are in an overbought condition with candlesticks above the T-Line. Once they turn red and break through the T-Line, a downtrend is established until a Morningstar pattern at the bottom triggers a reversal to the upside. The rest of this chapter will be devoted to the top bullish candlestick power signals. If you know them and can identify them you will have a much better handle on identifying trader sentiment.

A Doji in an oversold area, followed by a gap-up, gives you a very strong probability that you are about to enter a strong uptrend. The beauty of candlesticks again is that they capture investor sentiment. When you are at the bottom of the market in oversold territory, as indicated by stochastics, and a Doji appears, it signals indecision. If it is followed by a strong gap-up, closing above the T-Line, then a strong uptrend is building. One caveat to this strategy is that when the candlesticks start moving well above the TLine, they are going to want to come back to the T-Line, so you want to be prepared to take pro ts if necessary.

The Left/Right Combo is a Doji followed by a bullish engul ng signal. The bullish engul ng signal completely encapsulates the previous candle body. Since the Doji body is small, it represents a moment of indecision followed by a clear bullish move. The Left/Right Combo is like a boxer setting up a small left jab with a roundhouse right punch. In this example we have a small Doji, followed by a bullish engul ng signal and a strong upward move in the stochastics. Notice there is a series of Dojis in this chart. If one Doji signals indecision, a series of Dojis indicates greater indecision. If you see a strong candlestick buy signal, followed by a series of Dojis and the next bar gaps-up signi cantly, a strong bullish move is in play, and you want to be buying. Series of Dojis

Remember that a Doji represents indecision. If you see a series of Dojis it represents greater indecision. When you see a series of Dojis setting up, and stochastics start moving up, with candlesticks closing above the T-Line, it signals a positive open the following day and trigger to buy. Bear in mind, you still need to do your due diligence. Make sure to check the pre-market futures the next day, and make sure there isn’t any economic or geopolitical news that could adversely impact your decision to buy. But if the futures are moving in the same direction as your trend, it’s a signal to proceed and buy. Candlestick Patterns followed by Gap-Ups

Any signal followed by a gap-up is a signal to buy. In this case, we have a hammer signal, followed by a bullish gap up. Once the candles close above the T-Line along with a corresponding upward move in the stochastic, it signals a strong buying trend. When we see a gap-down in an oversold condition it’s just telling you that most people panic when the market is at the bottom. How can you tell if the market is at its bottom? With candlestick patterns, once you see a gap-down in an oversold condition, start looking for signs of a reversal. It could be a Doji, a series of Dojis or a gap-up reversal. Bullish Kicker Signal

In this example, there is a signi cant gap-up above the previous day’s downtrend. The gapup is well above the T-Line and there’s a strong upward move in the stochastics. This signals a very strong change in investor sentiment. Some traders are afraid to buy after a signi cant gap-up. They are afraid that they are buying at a high. Remember, if the stochastics are rising and the candlestick is above the TLine, then the upward trend is likely to continue. Bear in mind that the further the candles drift north of the T-Line, the more likely they are to retrace and come back to it. Bullish kicker Signals don’t require a gap-up as long as it is a signi cant move in the opposite direction of a downtrend, and it’s moving above the T-Line with supporting stochastics. As a rule of thumb, the bigger the Bullish Kicker Signal is, the more signi cant the move will be. Bullish Flutter Kicker

A Bullish Flutter Kicker occurs when the market has a down day followed by an indecisive gap-up. If you see a Doji gapping-up over the previous days open, it’s a signal that the market is showing some strength. If the market moves up the next day over the previous days close and starts moving above the T-Line, it’s a signal that investor sentiment is moving the market into an uptrend.

Once the Candlesticks start crossing back below the T-Line is when you need to start thinking about making a course correction. Magnitude of the Signal

The larger the signal, especially after a Doji, the more compelling the evidence is that there is a change in investor sentiment. In this example, the candles formed a rounded bottom and broke above the 50-day moving average resistance level, followed by a very large gap-up above the T-Line. Once a gap-up like this happens, the market will more than likely form a 45-degree “Steady-Eddie” pattern, where the market churns upward above the T-Line. Whenever you see a large gap in candlestick patterns as shown above, it’s a sign of a strong move. If you can identify it, your earnings will multiply. Summary Candlestick patterns are a historical gauge of investor sentiment. They were developed centuries ago by Japanese rice traders and they still work today. If you study these bullish candlestick patterns and can identify them, you will prepared to act on decisive changes in investor sentiment. You will be in a much better position to enter into an uptrend, set stop/losses and ride your pro ts to the upside.

CHAPTER 03

PRICE ACTION…THE REALITY & TRUTH OF THE MARKETS! By Todd Mitchell, TradingConceptsInc.com

As you may or may not know about me, I am a huge believer and strong advocate of Price Action – everything you use to make your trading decisions should be secondary to Price – certainly any technical indicators.  You will soon discover that Price Action alone needs to be the cornerstone and foundation from which a successful and long-lasting trading methodology is created.

You need to follow Price Action because everything known is re ected in Price. Markets are driven by human greed, fear, and panic, and all this is re ected in a chart – Pure Price Action!  Todd Mitchell What I’m going to do in this article, is prove to you time and time again that the closest thing to a ‘holy grail’ tool for trading the markets is pure Price Action – besides, of course, what’s going on in your head.  I believe that once you read this article, you will be absolutely blown away by what you will learn, and you soon will wonder how you ever got by without using Price Action as your foundational trading tool.  But rst, before I continue, let me give you… Key Phrases and Truths that will help solidify how important PRICE ACTION is to your overall success as a trader.  Please read and learn them as if your nancial future depended on it! Price Action must always come rst. Price is never wrong – the market (Price) is right 100% of the time. Price is the only reality and truth in the market. The only indicator available to us that doesn’t lag is PRICE. All technical indicators are derived from Price (i.e. open, high, low, and close) – so why not go straight to the source – PRICE. All successful traders know how to read and how to interpret Price. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Pure Price Action of any market knows more than any Wall Street analyst or Free Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy economist. Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t Good traders don’t have to know about what’s going onITinside DOWNLOAD NOW fundamentally of a stock, ETF, futures contract, commodity, forex currency pair – or any other market for that matter.  A chart is a chart is a chart – period. Price is everything, and areas where Price has turned in the past are likely to be areas where it will turn again. Price is reality and intelligence is the appearance:  We, as traders, are trading mob psychology. We’re not trading corn, soybeans, bond futures, stocks, options, or the forex market; we’re trading numbers re ected on a Price chart, and that’s all we’re doing.

“You don’t get any pro t from fundamental analysis. You get pro t from buying and selling.  So why stick with the appearance when you can go right to the reality of PRICE.” Legendary trader Richard Dennis Be In Sync with The Market Alright, after reading through everything mentioned above, it’s pretty obvious I’m a huge proponent of Price Action; I can’t deny that. One thing you just can’t argue with is that the market (Price) is right 100% of the time, right?  I mean, think of it, it’s our job as traders to be in sync with the market, and when we’re not, we wind up losing money.  It’s as simple as that. You must understand completely what I’m saying here; once you do, I can assure you that not only will you become a much better trader, but also you will see your trading completely turn around; that’s 100% of this article’s focus.  You see, too many traders get mad at the market when they’re wrong – like the market is human or something. Let me be the rst to tell you, if you haven’t been told this already, the market does not care about you one bit; it does what it does, and it’s our job as traders to listen, watch, observe it’s natural ‘ebb’ and ‘ ow,’ and trade it accordingly, right?  So, by now, I hope the concept of using pure Price Action for your decision-making is clear. I urge you to stop watching TV and to stop looking at the nancial news. Instead, start keeping track of the open, high, low, and close – because they are the key data you need to make (most) all of your trading decisions. Take a look at the charts below; do you even know what these markets are by simply looking at them?   I highly doubt it.  You see, I’ve intentionally taken off the symbols and prices to prove a point; the point is; a chart is a chart is a chart – we’re doing nothing more than trading ‘mob psychology.’ The markets you decide to trade are irrelevant.  Markets can only do one of three things at any one time – move UP, DOWN, or SIDEWAYS, right?  Do you really need a bunch of indicators to tell you what they’re doing?  The answer is NO.  Take a look at the charts below, and you’ll see exactly what I mean: UP, DOWN, or SIDEWAYS

Tech Talk (Technical Indicators) As you can clearly see from the above charts, price action alone should be at the core of your overall trading plan, because everything you use (indicators, moving averages, trendlines, etc.) is based on price. Alright, let’s talk about Technical Indicators and what I personally think about them. Before I go into anything speci c, let me rst start off by saying this:  “The only indicator out there that doesn’t lag is Price, and while so many traders embark on this never-ending search for the ‘Holy Grail’ of trading tools, it just does not exist.” Now, I would like for you to read and re-read this statement until it completely sinks in before moving on, it is that important! A picture, a chart in this case, is worth a million words: Do you really need Technical Indicators to see what’s going on in this chart?

 What I Call A “Spaghetti” Chart… Paralysis of Analysis!

You wouldn’t believe how many traders have come to me over the years and their charts look like the one directly above – what I like to call a ‘spaghetti chart’ (i.e. tons of indicators).  They’re all over the place, and not surprisingly, so are their trading results. What they think will give them more clarity in their trading, actually multiplies their confusion.  If the charts you are using right now even remotely resembles this, I highly recommend getting rid of this junk.  Clear the slate. Clear your head and start over. I have yet to meet a trader that was consistently pro table for a signi cant amount of time by trading a barrel full on indicators thrown on a chart. Indicators by themselves are merely tools… they will not make you a good trader.  There’s a lot more to successful trading than merely using technical indicators.  Believe it or not the simplest trading methods work the best and are the most robust – meaning that they work in ALL markets (i.e. Up, Down & Sideways).  Too many traders, especially beginners, feel that by using more indicators will help make http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong withDOWNLOAD using technical IT NOWindicators as long as you understand and accept that Price Action should come rst. Therefore, the perfect blend is to be able to synthesize the natural ‘ebb and ow’ of the market (i.e. Price Action) with the use of a few carefully selected technical indicators, while knowing in which market environment to use them are absolutely crucial. Alright, that’s the end to my rant and rave on using technical indicators… take what you will from it and let’s move on. Crowd Psychology Let’s talk brie y on Crowd Psychology and how that ts in here. Crowd psychology is what drives markets, and that’s all it really is. It’s herd mentality (crowd psychology) that drives price change, not fundamentals.  It’s people’s belief of what’s going to happen in the future.  And fortunately, all these movements (up, down and sideways) are all re ected on a price chart.

The Economy Let’s talk about the Economy and how you need to rationalize and think about it when it comes to your trading. Whenever you try to justify or correlate the economy with the market, it’s never a good thing, because it never makes any sense.  You oftentimes see articles in the Wall Street Journal or Investor’s Business Daily saying, “Can this rally really be trusted?”  You see, that makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever.  http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

A rally is a rally – either the market is going up, or it is going down (or sideways of course) … it’s as simple as that.  Just because it’s happening within a crappy overall economy doesn’t mean it’s not happening.  Therefore, you really can’t successfully trade the markets by using this type of mentality.  And of course, the same statements are true in a big down trending market (i.e. the markets getting killed in an overall good economy).  Remember, Price is never wrong – the market (Price) is right 100% of the time.  Price is the only reality and truth in the market. Trading Is All About PRICE ACTION Alright, I think you understand by now what my thoughts and feelings are about Price Action – and how very important it is to a successful long-term trading approach – so let’s move on. So, at the end of the day, no matter what nancial market you ultimately decide to trade, trading is all about PRICE ACTION.  It doesn’t matter if you’re trading wheat, oil, gold, e-mini futures, stocks, ETFs, options, or the forex market… it’s all about Price Action.  You don’t have to look at volume, indicators, supply and demand, or fundamentals – the PRICE is what tells us what the fundamentals are.  Remember that PRICE IS KING.  Many successful traders believe price is the only thing that truly matters.  News, complicated technical analysis, and depth of market screens (and much more) only serve to distract us from the only thing that truly matters to the markets:  Price Action. Remember, a chart is a chart is a chart! Let Me Quickly Wrap this up by Repeating What I Said Earlier Since it IS So VERY IMPORTANT… I have yet to meet a trader that was consistently pro table for a signi cant amount of time by trading a barrel full on indicators thrown on a chart. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

EXIT TRADES By Barry Burns, TopDogTrading.com

The Stochastic Momentum Indicator (SMI) is a powerful indicator that can provide you with excellent entry and exit signals. It can show you: 1. When a market move is strong (and will follow through in the direction of your trade).  2. When the market is going into consolidation (to avoid you getting whipsawed). 3. A leading indication before you can see it in pure price action. Very few traders use this indicator, so it can give you an "edge" over other traders, especially if you use the custom settings I provide for you in this video.

HARMONY WITH THE SMART MONEY

Free Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy By Gavin Holmes, Tradeguider.com Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t DOWNLOAD IT NOW Most traders are aware of the two widely known approaches used to analyze a market: fundamental analysis and technical analysis. Many different methods can be used in each approach, but generally speaking fundamental analysis is concerned with the question of why something in the market will happen, and technical analysis attempts to answer the question of when something will happen. Volume Spread Analysis, however, is a third approach to analyzing a market. It combines the best of both fundamental and technical analysis into a singular approach that answers both questions of 'why' and 'when' simultaneously. Introduction to Volume Spread Analysis Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) methodology takes a multi-dimensional approach to analyzing the market, and looks at the relationship between price, spread or range, and volume. VSA is a proprietary market analysis method conceived by veteran trader, Tom Williams, who was a highly successful member of a professional trading syndicate in the 1960s and also the creator of TradeGuider Systems. The VSA method works particularly well at highlighting the imbalances of Supply and Demand. VSA builds on the pioneering work of Richard D. Wyckoff, a famous 1920's trader. He based his trading decisions on supply and demand in the markets and how they are inextricably linked to professional activity - 'Smart Money' trading (Wyckoff's principles are still taught at the Golden Gate University in San Francisco). In any business where there is money involved and pro ts to make, there are professionals. Doctors are collectively known as professionals, but they specialize in certain areas of medicine. The nancial markets are no different. The nancial markets have professionals that specialize in certain instruments as well: stocks, grains, FOREX, etc. The activity of these professional operators, and more important, their true intentions, are clearly shown on a price chart if the trader knows how to read them. Volume is the major indicator for the professional trader. Volume Spread Analysis seeks to establish the “cause” of price movements, and from the cause, predict the future direction of prices. The cause is quite simply the imbalance between Supply and Demand in the market, which is created by the activity of professional operators. It is the close study of the reactions of these specialists, market maker professionals, or “Smart Money”, which will enlighten you to future market behavior. VSA looks at the interrelationship between three variables on the chart in order to determine the balance of supply and demand as well as the probable near term direction of the market. These variables are the amount of volume on a price bar, the price spread or range of that bar (do not confuse this with the bid/ask spread), and the closing price on the spread of that bar. For the correct analysis of volume, one needs to realize that the recorded volume information contains only half of the meaning required to arrive at a correct analysis. The other half of the meaning is found in the price range. Volume always indicates the amount of activity going on and the corresponding price spread shows the price movement on that volume.

DOWNLOAD IT NOW Why do the members of the self-regulated Exchanges around the world like to keep true volume information away from you as far as possible? The reason is because they know how important it is in analyzing a market! The signi cance and importance of volume appears little understood by most non-professional traders. Perhaps this is because there is very little information and limited teaching available on this vital part of technical analysis. To use a chart without volume data is similar to buying an automobile without a gasoline tank. Where volume is dealt with in other forms of technical analysis, it is often viewed in isolation, or averaged in some way across an extended timeframe. Analyzing volume, or price for that matter, is something that cannot be broken down into simple mathematical formulae. This is one of the reasons why there are so many technical indicators; some formulas work best for cyclic markets, some formulas are better for volatile situations, whilst others are better when prices are trending. Some technical indicators attempt to combine volume and price movements together. This is a better way, but rest assured that this approach has its limitations too, because at times the market will go up on high volume, but can do exactly the same thing on low volume. Prices can suddenly go sideways, or even fall off, on exactly the same volume. So, there are obviously other factors at work. Price and volume are intimately linked, and the interrelationship is a complex one, which is the reason Volume Spread Analysis was developed in the rst place. EXAMPLES OF MARKET MANIPULATION So why do so many traders lose? They lose because they have not grasped some fundamental facts which drive all markets. Fact number 1; By far the largest players in the market are the hedge funds, investment banks, trading syndicates, such as Goldman Sachs, George Soros and Berkshire Hathaway headed up by Warren Buffet. These are organizations you have hears of. There are many, many others who are not publicly known, but together, they are by far the biggest players in the international trading community. At Tradeguider we call them the “Smart Money” Fact number 2: The “Smart Money” have to make money and they do this by selling at the top of the market and buying at the bottom. Fact number 3: In order to do this, they have to move the market so that the price rises to the top or falls to the bottom. Markets have always been manipulated here are just a few examples: Let’s begin with the British Petroleum oil spill disaster in 2010. On the 25th June that year the shares fell to just under 27 dollars. the news was grim the pundits and reporters were talking in terms of huge losses and a possible break-up of the company and everyone who had shares was looking to sell in full expectation that prices were plummeting. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

On May 6 2010 something very strange happened in the nancial markets. This day is now referred to as the ash crash because no credible explanation has been provided by the regulatory authorities as to exactly what caused the crash or who was responsible. In fact, many investors begin to suspect the all was not what it seemed to be. CNBC's closing bell anchor-woman Maria Bartiromo was reporting on the day the ash crash happened. Fellow reporter Matt Nesto was explaining some unusual anomalies in a number of stocks - even though the mainstream media claims that is was caused by a lone trader hitting the wrong button - B for billion instead of m for million - Maria saw through it straightaway. She called it an outrageous example of Market Manipulation. What we actually witnessed on May 6 was a giant shakeout of the market. The smart money was expecting higher prices and wanted to catch the retail traders, by marking the price down heavily, before moving the price up. They were bullish the stocks were going to rise and they want to buy at the best possible price - wouldn't you want to do the same? Buy at the lowest price name knowing you could sell it later for much more than you bought it for In February this year we saw the headline “Quantus soars to record half year pro ts”.  is the headline on February 25rd 2016 "Lower oil prices have helped Qantas post a record pre-tax pro t " and "best rst-half pro t in the Australian airline's 95-year history" are used directly below the headline.

To the retail trading and investing community the appeared to be a great opportunity to buy the stock because everything lined up and if you didn't go into the market by now you'd miss the move, okay so buy, buy, buy! What happened? the stock plummeted spectacularly and the uninformed retail traders said “bye-bye” to their capital. That's the trading game - buy low sell high. Be a predator, a clever predator that understands exactly how the prey think and act Smart Traders appreciate this and understand that quite often, all is not what it seems. The media, the sentiment and the emotions will often lead to poor trading decisions and big returns for the professionals.

The History of VSA

Free Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy Consistent Pro t of VSA, is a As mentioned earlier, this is not a newComplete concept.Guide Tom to Williams, the inventor former syndicate trader. He observed that the markets being manipulated and that DOWNLOADwere IT NOW the key to unlocking the truth lay in the relationship among the Volume, the Spread of the bar, and its Closing Price. Tom spent many years studying the concepts of Richard Wyckoff, a renowned trader during the 1920’s and 1930’s. Richard wrote several books about trading the Markets, and he eventually created the Stock Market Institute in Phoenix, Arizona. At its core, Wyckoff’s work is based on the analysis of trading ranges and determining when the stocks are in basing, markdown, distribution, or mark-up phases. Incorporated into these phases are ongoing shifts between ‘weak hands’, or public ownership, and ‘the composite operator’, now commonly known as ‘Smart Money’. When Tom Williams went back to Beverly Hills in the early 1980’s, he began to investigate the possibility of computerizing the system he had learned as a syndicate trader- and so began the evolution of Volume Spread Analysis (VSA). With the assistance of an experienced computer programmer, Tom carefully studied thousands of charts to recognize the obvious patterns that were left when professional operators, or Smart Money, were active. This technique, although simple in concept, took several years to write and is now taught as a methodology in combination with software known as TradeGuider. The Key Players There are a few speci c individuals involved in the evolution of what VSA is today, as well as a handful of experts that teach the Volume Spread Analysis method and its principles. RICHARD DEMILLE WYCKOFF Richard D. Wyckoff worked in New York City during a “golden age” for technical analysis that existed during the early decades of the 20th Century. Wyckoff became wealthy through trading in the stock market, but he also became altruistic about the public's Wall Street experience. He turned his attention and passion to education, teaching, and in publishing exposés such as “Bucket Shops and How to Avoid Them”, which were run in New York’s “The Saturday Evening Post” during the 1920’s. As a trader and educator in the stock, commodity and bond markets throughout the early 1900s, Wyckoff was curious about the logic behind market action. Through conversations, interviews and research of the successful traders of his time, Wyckoff augmented and documented the methodology he traded and taught. Wyckoff worked with and studied them all, himself, Jesse Livermore, E.H. Harriman, James R. Keene, Otto Kahn, J.P. Morgan and many other large operators of the day. Wyckoff's research claimed many common characteristics among the greatest winning stocks and market campaigners of the time. He analyzed these market operators and their operations, and determined where risk and reward were optimal for trading. He emphasized the placement of stop-losses at all times, the importance of controlling the risk of any particular trade, and he demonstrated techniques used to campaign within the large trend (bullish and bearish). The Wyckoff technique may provide some insight as to http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t Wyckoff felt that an experienced judge of the market should regard the whole story that DOWNLOAD IT NOW appears on the tape as though it were the expression of a single mind. He felt that it was an important psychological and tactical advantage to stay in harmony with this omnipotent player. By striving to follow his footsteps, Wyckoff felt we are better prepared to grow our portfolios and net-worth. Wyckoff was a keen observer and reporter who codi ed the best practices of the celebrated stock and commodity operators of that era.  The results of Richard Wyckoff’s effort became known as the Wyckoff Method of Technical Analysis and Stock Speculation. Wyckoff is a practical, straight-forward bar chart and point-and- gure chart pattern recognition method that, since the founding of the Wyckoff and Associates educational enterprise in the early 1930’s, has stood the test of time.  Around 1990, after ten years of trial-and-error with a variety of technical analysis systems and approaches, the Wyckoff Method became the mainstay of The Graduate Certi cate in Technical Market Analysis at Golden Gate University in San Francisco, California, U.S.A.  During the past decade dozens of Golden Gate graduates have gone to successfully apply the Wyckoff Method to futures, equities, xed income and foreign exchange markets using a range of time frames. The following are the three fundamental laws of the Wyckoff Method will be de ned and applied 1. The Law of Supply and Demand – states that when demand is greater than supply, prices will rise, and when supply is greater than demand, prices will fall. Here the analyst studies the relationship between supply vs. demand using price and volume over time as found on a bar chart. 2. The Law of Effort vs. Results – divergences and disharmonies between volume and price often presage a change in the direction of the price trend. The Wyckoff “Optimism vs. Pessimism” index is an on-balanced-volume type indicator helpful for identifying accumulation vs. distribution and gauging effort. 3. The Law of Cause and Effect – postulates that in order to have an effect on you must rst have a cause, and that effect will be in proportion to the cause. This law’s operation can be seen working as the force of accumulation or distribution within a trading range works itself out in the subsequent move out of that trading range. Point and gure chart counts can be used to measure this cause and project the extent of its effect. TOM WILLIAMS Tom Williams is the founder of TradeGuider Systems Software (formerly Genie software) and initiator of the Volume Spread Analysis methodology- he was also a very successful syndicate trader in the U.S. Tom was introduced to day trading while working in Beverly Hills for a boss of an elite group of trading syndicates. These trading syndicates revealed their successful strategy to Tom. He gained their trust and con dence and soon became an established member of their organization.

The syndicates time to send Tom to the Wyckoff Chart Reading DOWNLOAD course in order IT NOWfor him to understand and nally get a rm grasp of exactly what was going on in the markets, especially when he drew these charts. Tom realized all the clues to make wining trades were in the charts, if you knew how to read them correctly. Williams retired from professional trading at the age of 40, taking up a number of commercial ventures during this period. Tom continued to trade as well, but became consumed with all the knowledge he had learned from the syndicate and it’s traders back in the United States. Tom's real ambition was to help traders operate in a more informed way, and this idea formed the basis of his software development company, Genie Software Ltd. He wanted to computerize the Wyckoff Method and the knowledge he had gained from that course to produce automated trading signals that did not have to rely on human intervention. Tom further developed Wyckoff's methodologies to create his own more potent methodology - Volume Spread Analysis - regularly referred to as "Wyckoff on Steroids"! Tom has spent many years re ning the signals in this agship product, VSA (The forerunner to TradeGuider) to make TradeGuider Software Systems what it is today. He also wrote two books that he self-published, “The Undeclared Secrets that Drive the Stock Market” and “Master the Markets”. Both books have now sold or been distributed to over 100,000 traders and investors worldwide. Tom Williams has been energetically and successfully applying his unique methodologies for the last 30 years to the Stocks, FOREX and Futures markets. Using Volume Spread Analysis in Your Trading Volume Spread Analysis was previously known as Wyckoff Volume Spread Analysis and has been in existence for over 20 years. Driven by an arti cial intelligence engine, TradeGuider VSA is unique and is capable of analyzing any liquid market in any time frame by extracting the information it needs in order to indicate imbalances of Supply and Demand evident in a chart. In doing so, TradeGuider is able to graphically exhibit the essential dynamics of market movement. Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) is at the core to the Tradeguider trading solution – the VSA SMART Center Pro. The VSA SMART Center Pro is a complete revolutionary trading system which has become a game-changer for the international trading community.  From time to time in the history of international trading key milestones are reached. From the realization in the 1900’s by Richard Wyckoff that markets were moved by the Composite Operator to Richard Ney's ground-breaking work in in the 1950's. In the 1980's Tom Williams built on the original Wyckoff methodology to introduce Volume Spread Analysis.

If any of these strike a chord with you then welcome to VSA SMART Center Pro VSA SMART Center Pro uses Volume Spread Analysis - a unique and powerful methodology. It is neither Technical Analysis or Fundamental Analysis. On their own technical and Fundamental Analysis do not take into account 3 absolutely crucial factors: 1. The markets are moved by supply and demand – no technical analysis tools can predict this 2. You cannot use past price to determine future price in the markets. Because the markets are moved dynamically – that’s why the market turns just when you didn’t think it was going to. 3. The supply and demand are created dynamically by the “Smart Money” players who continually move the markets. Neither Fundamental or Technical Analysis can identify this activity. These 3 factors cause the huge majority of retail traders and investors to lose money in the markets. The good news is that Volume Spread Analysis methodology focuses on the imbalance of Supply and Demand. It does not use past price to predict future price. Instead it tracks the activity of the Smart Money enabling you to trade in harmony with the professional winners. It’s the methodology the Smart Money don’t want you to know about and it is over 100 year old and still taught as part of the nance degree at the Golden Gate University in Sen Francisco. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

CHAPTER 06

INSIDER TIPS - BEST PERFORMING INDICATORS By Kirt Christensen, ETFTippingPoint.com

The ETFs market is a huge re ection of crowd psychology playing over two basic human emotions; greed and fear. Professional ETF traders understand this, and rather than relying on greed and fear, they keenly follow the mood of the market as informed by technical analysis and/or candlestick patterns. Technical analysis of any price action is done through indicators which derive their strength from past price actions. Indicators are powerful tools for predicting market trend, market momentum, volatility, stop-loss targets, and more. Technical indicators are valid for all tradable instrument including individual stocks, indexes and ETFs. In theory, following any one indicator can be lucrative but it’s coupled with an equally high risk of loss. As such, in real life situations, it's best to make trades based on holistic analysis using multiple indicators. You should look at points “where all the stars are aligned” and where every, or at least most of the indicators, predict the same outcome. For example, look at the RSI, Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channel, different moving averages, Stochastics, and several other indicators before making a trade. In this chapter, we are going to look at the best performing indicators for ETFs; indicators that give the highest success ratio. You can use any type of candlestick to go with the following indicators, but we recommend using Heikin-Ashi Candlesticks, as the charts are smoother and less noisy compared with http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

normal candlesticks. Even better, almost all modern trading platforms have the option of Free Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy Heikin-Ashi Candlesticks. Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t 1. Moving Average- The Market is a Dance of Moving Averages DOWNLOAD IT NOW One of the most important concepts in the Dow’s Theory is moving averages which depict the entire history of an ETF. Moving Average is a good compass for market trends and a good basis of establishing support/resistance levels. There are two types of Moving Averages; Simple and Exponential moving averages. Traders who prefer longer period trades should go for simple moving average and highfrequency scalpers and quick traders should use the exponential moving average. The success ratio of moving average as a sole indicator is over 60%, and when combined with other indicators, it becomes one of the most powerful and core indicators of any trading strategy, yielding up to 90% success rate. Most trading platforms offer Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) for different time periods like 5m, 15m, 30m, 1 hr., 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, etc. Depending on your trade’s time frame, you should choose three different moving averages. Moving averages of different time frames tend to converge and diverge according to the market trends. The point where two moving averages meet is the point where you should execute your trades. Typically, go long once you see a MA of lower time frame “crossing over” a MA of higher time frame. It means that the stock/index/fund is in a positive momentum or is simply bullish. Take a short position if the reverse happens. Moving Averages, if used with right combinations, can predict the broad market trend accurately. Let’s take a closer look at a simple example of how moving average can predict a price action. Illustration 1: The chart below shows a classic example of a pro table trade, using the concept of moving average. The ETF we chose was SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEARCA: SPY), over a weekly period. The red line represents the 20-day Simple Moving Average (20 SMA) and the green line represents the 50-day Simple Moving Average (50 SMA).

We see an extended period of consolidation mid-2015 to theTrading beginning of Easy 2016,Free Bonus eBook fromfrom Our the Sponsors: Options Made where the 50 SMA was above the 20 SMA. However, there is a strong Pro 20 SMA Complete Guide to Consistent t crossover at 210 level. Since this is a weekly chart, the indication is a strong one, and this is evinced by DOWNLOAD NOWof 245 giving a neat and the subsequent price rise towards 240 levels, with a nalIThigh clean 14% return. If you are a skeptical trader and want to be sure before executing the trade, look at the MACD, which is making higher highs and a positive divergence after the SMA crossover. That is a high probability uptrend that you can bet on. Here is a similar example, but for a downtrend, where you can earn money by going short. The red line is 20 SMA, which is crossed over by the bigger 50 SMA. Notice that the crossover takes place at 140 level and during a negative divergence (-0.84) between the MACD and EMA. This signals that the bears are in control, and it’s a powerful sell sign.

Moving Averages can also be used as reliable resistance and support levels. Resistance levels are points which act as a strong bearish wall, while support is the line which provides good “bouncing” points for the a given price. For example, in the above chart, the 20 SMA (the red line) acts as a strong resistance for the downtrend. Notice that, whenever the price touches or tries to pierce the 20 SMA, it intensi es the downtrend. This can be used by short time traders to place pro table shorts. Other than the 20-50 Moving Average combination, you can also use the 50-200 SMA to get a broader perspective into the ETF. 2. RSI – Locating the Greed and Fear. The two most fundamental forces that control the market is greed and fear. It is a wellknown saying that "bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered", personifying pigs with greed. The best way to quantify fear and greed is to use oscillators indicators, like the RSI (Relative Strength Index). Note that Relative Strength Index is one of the most important and handy indicators, especially for swing traders. It is a momentum oscillator and is used to verify the momentum of a trend. The concept of RSI is simple to understand and easy to apply. RSI, like most oscillator indicators, is a band which indicates overbought and oversold conditions in a price movement. The RSI indicator moves like a pendulum, swinging between the two extremes of overbought and oversold conditions. The actual level is determined by the technical set-up, but usually, if RSI crosses over 80, it creates an overbought situation while any level lower http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

than 20 becomes an oversold situation. The more it deviates from these extremes, the Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading greater is the tendencyFree to revert to the mean position. In any trade, the RSI valueMade can’t Easy moveComplete Guide to Consistent Pro t lower than 0 or higher than 100. DOWNLOAD IT NOW The logical course of action is to sell when RSI value increases beyond 80 (overbought), and buy when RSI falls below 20 (oversold). Now there is no compulsion for the RSI to go beyond 20/80 to be justi ed as oversold or overbought. It has to be combined with a trend indicator and candlestick patterns. Let’s look at an example. For simplicity, we will not complicate the chart with other indicators, but it’s advisable to take multiple indicators into account before making a trade. Below is an iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF chart, with a 14-day RSI indicator, which is the last column. Notice that the given setup has a RSI band between 88.43-15.79, i.e. the extremes which indicate it’s speci c oversold and overbought conditions.

Notice the rst dip in RSI happens somewhere around September 2015, when the price was $550 and RSI was 15.79. This indicates a strong oversold condition and professional traders would take a long position at this level. The price goes to $600 a share and then moves back to $550, but the RSI value is locked at 33. This means that there is a potential uptrend and the stock still has an inner momentum. The momentum is nally con rmed with the SMA crossover in mid-2016 after which the price of the ETF goes off to $800, which is a comfortable 30% return. Now, notice that once the trend is con rmed by the SMA crossover, the RSI never went beyond 50 in the year 2016. This indicates the presence of a strong bullish momentum and you can look to buy into the dips. Again, you can safely use the 20 SMA (the red line) as a strong resistance for buying into the momentum. Here is another example of RSI, where it locates an overbought condition in the daily chart of iShares MSCI Germany ETF. The 14-day period RSI is used.

Notice that the RSI has peaked itself in January 2017, and is somewhat consolidating at the $580-$570 levels. With a number of Doji candlestick patterns appearing in the consolidation phase, after an uptrend, it clearly indicates a period of indecisiveness in an overbought area. This is where a smart trader would take a short position. The price eventually reaches 520 within 2 months, giving off a 12% pro t over a short period of time. RSI can be used for a smaller time frame, even for hourly traders. However, it is wise to check on the general RSI value before trading within speci c time frames. For example, if you want to trade within the hourly chart, you should be aware of the RSI value on the daily chart. The RSI indicator for smaller time frames (like 1m, 3m, 5m) can be ckle and sometimes oscillate too sharply. You can then use a 21 or higher period RSI to smoothen the oscillation frequency. 3. Fibonacci Retracement- What Goes Up, Must Come Down. One of the fundamental characteristics of any ETF/index/stock is the bearish and bullish forces, which create a zig zag pattern in the charts. No stock price ever goes on increasing and no stock price can always remain in a downtrend. Many swing traders take advantage of this to execute quick trades, with well-de ned stop-losses. In any trend, the momentum rst increases and reaches a peak from where it collapses, taking the price of an ETF down to a certain level, before reverting to its original trend. Hence, this requires a speci c stop loss, which is provided by the Fibonacci Retracement indicator. These pullbacks, which are known as retracements, are temporary and provide nice opportunities for quick traders to make pro ts in overbought/oversold conditions, and a chance for momentum traders to exploit the general trend. According to the Fibonacci Retracement theory, any trend will have strong resistance/support at 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8% and 100% of a fully established trend. The overall trading strategy is formed by looking at these consecutive support/resistance levels. For example, if an ETF is making higher highs and higher lows, then it is in an uptrend, and generally, the resistances become the new support bases. Below is a pictorial representation of this type of movement. The rst movement marked in green is a clear bull run, the blue part is a consolidation phase, and the red part depicts a typical bearish grip.

This movement is quanti ed by the Fibonacci Retracement in strong trends, which predicts strong reversal tendencies at the 5 fundamental levels/ratios; 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8% and 100% of a price movement. Here is an example of Fibonacci Retracement (FR), appearing on a daily chart of FXG, a consumer staples ETF.

The Fibonacci Retracement is constructed using two extreme points, one is the starting Free Bonus eBook from Sponsors: Options Trading point of a trend and the other is the peak of Our a trend. Both points are furtherMade veri Easy ed byComplete Guide to Consistent Pro t candlestick patterns and other technical indicators. In the following example, we take the $21 as the lower level of the Fibonacci Retracement and $25 the upper.  DOWNLOAD ITasNOW After achieving a $4 rise, over a $20 base price (20% increase), from February to June, we see the appearance of an Evening Star Doji on June 1. This indicates a clear loss of momentum and a signal that the bears have taken over the market. The price falls off through $1, which is a 1/4th increase. This corresponds to an approx 23.6% fall from the rst phase of the trend. Once you see this fall, you know that this level becomes the new resistance and price will be forced to bounce off this level. Professional traders will use this dip to go long again at $23.65 and experience the next leg of the bull run. This will actually continue off till the next Fibonacci level of 38.2%, which will become a temporary resistance and then change into a support, with further uptrend. This is similarly true for a downtrend, when the price springs up temporarily before continuing the bearish run. Almost all trading platforms have the Fibonacci Retracement and it can be used by professional players for scalping a trend for quick pro ts or entering a fresh position at such temporary retracements. This is also a good indicator to analyze the shifting resistance and support bands, which can help us determine our target and stop loss. 4. Bollinger Bands: The Mean and the two Deviations. Bollinger Bands is a classic indicator, developed by an astute trader, John Bollinger. He devised a simple way of tracking the deviations from a particular moving average, usually a simple moving average, by creating a parallel running bandwidth. The bandwidth encompasses the “highness” and “lowness” of a price action and is a good measure of volatility. Bollinger Bands consists of a main N-period Moving Average, which is the middle line and two standard deviations, forming the upper and lower limits of the bandwidth. The way these bands are pierced can tell a lot about the underlying forces. Let’s take a look at a natural piercing of the 10-day Bollinger Bands, through a daily chart.  In the given gure, the middle blue line is actually the 10-day SMA, the green line represents the upper deviation (Upper Band) and the red line represents the lower deviation (Lower Band).

Notice that, at the end of January 2017, there is an unusual expansion of the Bollinger bands. The candlestick pieces into the upper band with a strong but gradual uptrend, taking the price from $80 to $120. The stronger the piercing, the stronger is the inner momentum and volatility in the ETF. Once the price consolidates to a new level, the Bollinger bands constrict itself to the mean position. Bollinger bands are also used by swing traders to take advantage of sudden price movements. Since the price always tends to revert to the mean position after a sudden deviation, some traders immediately revert the Bollinger trend to make quick scalping trades.  In the above diagram, when the price starts to drop during February and March, the Bollinger bands again expand and the candlesticks touch the Lower deviation band (red line). We can also see a strong MACD crossover at the end of February, signaling a losing momentum. There is an unexceptional spike in the Average Volume indicator, signaling a strong bear run, which eventually brings the price down to $80. As a golden rule while following Bollinger Bands, always buy if there is a gradual expansion towards the upper band and sell once there is a strong deviation from the mean band towards the lower band.  5. VIX Index- Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself. VIX is a 30-day volatility index, which is also known as the Fear Index. It is not available for individual stocks but assumes prime importance in the technical analysis of ETFs, currencies, options, and other indexes. VIX is basically the volatility index of Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), the world’s largest exchange.  It measures the probabilistic volatility of the S&P 500 Index options and is one of the best ways to get an idea of the general market direction. VIX is usually inversely proportional to the S&P 500 index and consequently all the linked ETFs. Below is a VIX vs. S&P 500 chart, where you can see the inverse correlation between the two.

The VIX indicator is measured as a percentage, which predicts how the market will go based on its current activity. Rapid changes in the market forces will trigger a rise in the VIX indicator, which can signal zones of danger to avoid. The VIX indicator particularly becomes very active, achieving 70-80%, before and during a period of burst and reverts towards 10-20% during periods of boom. Most of the time, the VIX indicator tends to stay below the threshold value of 20%, which indicates normal market activity. Any sharp spike in activity/volatility is re ected by an increased VIX, which sharply reverts back to the original. This phenomenon can be seen in the above graph, which shows a sudden spike just before the 2008 nancial meltdown when the VIX touched a record 82%. Since then, the VIX experienced momentary bursts, notably during a 10% movement in the S&P 500 index (2010-2011). A decreasing VIX, however, indicates a rising market for S&P 500 ETFs. The market is on the rise since 2009, during which the VIX reverted back to 20-10 % levels. You should keep an eye on the VIX indicator if you are holding any long-term positions and want to limit losses during unforeseeable events.   How to Use the Indications in Unison. Indicators are like sticks, which can break if it stands alone but becomes powerful when many are bundled and used in unison. The key to successful trading, therefore, boils down to harmonizing the various signals from different indicators into a comprehensive picture. This does require some experience to actualize during live trading sessions, but nding common ground between various indicators is the bedrock of successful trading. The chart we will be using is a recent 30-mins chart for Power Shares QQQ Trust, Series 1 (ETF), and we are going to follow the ETF for a week and look at points where we can enter http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

pro table trades based on the indicators mentioned above. The details of the indicators used in this trade are.    Free Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t Simple Moving Average- 20 days (red line), 50 days (green line) and 200 days (pink DOWNLOAD IT NOW line).  Bollinger Bands- 10 period. MACD- Short Period: 12, Long Period: 26 and EMA period: 9. RSI- 14 Period.  Volume Moving Average- 5 Period. This is the rst chart, where we con rm the formation of a trend through the 20 days (red line), 50 days (green line) and 200 days (pink line). The 200 day SMA overtook the 50 day SMA, which signals a potential bear grip in the medium term. The 50 day SMA also closed above the 20 day SMA, which con rms a clear downtrend in the short term. We can also see that the ETF is using the 50 day SMA as a resistance to this downtrend. As this is a strong resistance, we can sell whenever we see the stock price hits the 50 SMA (Wednesday, 28 June ending, Monday July 3 beginning), once the downtrend is established.

At this point, we remove the SMAs from our chart and introduce the 10 period Bollinger band into the chart, which now looks like this.

Notice that the Bollinger band was tight and compressed from June 20 to June 23, which signals a period of low volatility and overall consolidation. Once the market opened on June 26th, you can see a spinning top Doji formation at a 30 mins level. The Bollinger Bands are starting to open up, with the candlesticks piercing the lower band. At the same time, you can see the RSI value peaking at 80 levels and MACD showing a negative divergence of -0.12, signaling a new bearish trend. This is a point where three powerful indicators point to a single thing and it can be a strong signal to sell at this point. We can take a short position here and draw a Fibonacci retracement, which would naturally layout 140, 138, 136, 134 (rounded off) as the support and resistances for the downtrend. This is exactly what the price action does, as it reverts off to 138 on Tuesday June 27. On Wednesday June 28, the price of the ETF starts off at 138, which is a temporary support. It rises but could not breach its earlier resistance of 140, which has now also become the 50 SMA-downtrend-resistance. This signals an immediate selloff in the ETF. On Thursday June 29, many interesting things happen, which require a detailed look.

Notice, there is a strong volume growth in the opening hours on Thursday June 29th. This represent a bearish volatility, as the RSI value at 82 is suggesting an overbought condition. This is another lucrative point to sell the ETF as “all the stars are harmoniously aligned”, and we can expect the price to move down towards 36 and then towards 34. Moreover, there is a MACD divergence happening on Monday July 3, which again con rms a downtrend. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Award-winning Approach to Identifying Institutional Trading Opportunities Developed and used to win trading competitions around the world, the Hoffman Inventory Retracement Bar (IRB) Trade has become one of the most popular ways to identify where short-term countertrend institutional inventory has subsided and when it’s time to re-enter into a trade’s original trend direction. What you will learn here is how to identify when the conditions arise to make the trade, the entry points, and exit strategy. What is the Hoffman Inventory Retracement Trade (IRB)? The IRB Trade is a strategy that is used to identify speci c types of institutional trading activity that is counter to the prevailing trend at hand, and then identify entries when the short-term countertrend inventory activity has come to an end and the market is likely ready to resume’s its original trend. While it is common folklore in the investment industry that institutions, like wolves, travel in packs, the reality is that institutions are not all sitting around at a table conspiring as a http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

We are subsequently looking for the market in question to resume its preexisting trend when those short-term countertrend institutional activities and inventories have dried up. The Rules For The Inventory Retracement Bar (IRB) Identi cation IRB Characteristics In an uptrend – Look for candlestick bars that open and close 45% or more off their high.

Trend Identi cation In the absence of the advanced trend identi cation systems Rob Hoffman uses, a simple approach to trend identi cation is looking at the 20 EMA (Exponential Moving Average) and asking yourself if it appears to be in approximately a 45 degree angle based on the timeframe you’re looking to trade over the 20 bars of data (i.e. 5 min., 60min, Daily, Weekly, etc.).  The next higher timeframe above the one you’re looking to trade should also be owing in the same direction.  For instance, if you’re trading off of a 5 minute chart and it’s in an uptrend, you would like to see that your 10 or 15 minute chart also in an uptrend.  It should be owing in the same direction.  If it’s sideways, or worse yet, trending in the opposite direction, your trade is much more likely to fail.  The Entry Strategy Once an IRB and proper trend is identi ed, the next step is to allow the market to move along and wait for the price action to break one tick/cent/pip below the low of the IRB in a downtrend.  In an uptrend you’re looking for the market to break one tick/cent/pip above the high of the IRB.  While it is not an absolute, it is preferred that the price breaks beyond the IRB within the next 20 bars based on the time period you’re trading.  For example, if you’re trading off of a 2 minute chart, you would ideally like to see the break in the next 40 minutes. In general, the sooner (i.e. the next ve bars as an example) it is better for trend resumption. The Trailing Stop Exit Strategy While many traders are speci c dollar target traders, the preferred method is more of a support and resistance target based methodology backed up by a trailing stop to ensure you are not giving back those pro ts during any snapbacks against your position.  Typically, Rob http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

At this point, if no further progression is made in price, then trail right to the current bid/offer with the intent to exit.  If one more spike of energy comes in to trap unsuspecting retail traders with a false breakout, we manually trail immediately behind price during the spike until it pauses, then we’re taken out with pro t.  Either way a win-win trading opportunity. Common major levels include key Fibonacci levels, previous day’s highs and lows, daily, weekly and monthly pivot points, etc.  For maximum comfort with the strategy, it is preferred that you use this with your own favorite support and resistance levels.

Stop Management Based on the premise of this trading strategy, the expectation upon the entry is that the market will continue into the original direction it was heading after its brief institutionally driven pullback against the trend.  Very frequently, after breaking through IRBs, the market will actually rapidly accelerate with fast action and wide ranges as everyone starts to realize that the brief pullback was merely a pause by one or a few institutions against the intended direction as the market moves to catch up with its original intent. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

With that said, once aFree trade is entered, the price should not retrace back Made beyond theBonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Easy opposite side of the IRB.  For instance,Complete if the trade is entered one tick/cent/pip below the Guide to Consistent Pro t low of the IRB in a downtrend, it should not stop and reverse to one tick/cent/pip above the DOWNLOAD IT of NOW high of that IRB.  If it does, that market may be forming more a reversal pattern and thus the need to exit the position and move on to the next opportunity or use one of Rob Hoffman’s phenomenal market reversal strategies to capture the move.  When not to use the strategy This strategy was primarily designed to identify and take advantage of trend continuations after counter trend institutional inventory exhaustion.  Therefore, this trade is not to be used in a sideways market conditions as continuation failure will frequently occur. Why This Strategy Works In general, the market tends to trade directionally with as few retail traders on board the correct direction as possible. This strategy is so effective due to its ability to nd high probability areas where three things are happening to retail traders in an uptrend: 1. Buyers are being distracted from taking long side trades when they see the pullbacks off the highs, scaring them into believing the move is over. 2. During pullbacks, sellers are being given false hope that any shorts taken earlier in the uptrend may nally start to work. 3. Buyers who bought the high during rapid wide range ascents hoping it will go higher get stopped out on the pullback. After all of these events above, once a new IRB to the upside appears and is pierced, the market is much more likely to move without all of those traders above on the right side of the market. In a downtrend these three things are happening to retail traders: 1. Sellers are being distracted from taking short side trades when they see the pullbacks off the lows, scaring them into believing the move is over. 2. During pullbacks, buyers are being given false hope that any buy side trades taken earlier in the downtrend may nally start to work. 3. Sellers who sold the low during rapid wide range descent hoping it will go lower get stopped out on the pullback. After all of these events above, once a new IRB to the downside appears and is pierced, the market is much more likely to move without all of those traders above on the right side of the market.

Rob’s Strategy Checklist

Key Points To Remember No more weight is given to any IRB based on whether its close is above or below the open (i.e. green or red candle). In addition, think about the concept of over extension. If the IRB has an extraordinary range as compared to the Average True Range of the last 10+ bars before it then the break back through the IRB is far more likely to fail.  This will more likely result in an entry that has a higher likelihood of reversion to the mean as much of the energy and pro t opportunity has potentially dissipated leaving the trader with a much smaller pro t or perhaps a stop loss. Trail your entries to reduce the risks of reversion to the mean while still giving a trade a chance to push into your intended direction. Use proven trend quali cation tool like Rob Hoffman’s. In the absence of a well-tested tool of your own, trade in the direction of an approximately 45 degree angled 20 EMA. This strategy has very diverse applications across many markets and asset classes.  For instance, in addition to trading conventional equities, futures, options and FOREX http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

THE RISE OF WEALTH HACKING USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE By Dan Mirkin and David Aferiat, Trade-Ideas.com

The real way to hack wealth, to become wealthy, is to be in the stock market. Know another? It's not real estate. With real estate, you need a huge amount of capital to gain wealth and if your real estate holdings are your primary residence and/or a rental, it can take years before realizing gains. Start your own business? We say go for it, but it’s a full-time effort and takes its blood, sweat and tears. The equities market is the only place with the available liquidity exible enough to put capital into the market - and get it back out. However not every approach in the equity markets works. I can tell you one thing that is 100%: you cannot become wealthy by indexing yourself and ETF-ing yourself, you have got to be a stock-picker. You've got to nd the stocks that move. And that's why we're here. Trade Ideas has been around since 2003. We have our computers looking for what can be done by people to gain wealth. Our arrays of servers do tons of practice trades all throughout the night to see what is and isn't working. And we do it for about a million different opportunities. So, every night, while you're sleeping we’re at work. It’s automated preparation meant to arm you with an information advantage. Preparation used to mean going through charts, which makes no sense because that's the past and you need to be more focused on what's happening today. Something we call the Investment Discovery Engine, Holly.

8 FOREX “LIFE HACKS” TO MAKE YOU A BETTER TRADER By Josh Martinez, MarketTraders.com

INTRODUCTION Some of the most popular social media posts are the so-called “Life Hacks”.  These fun little strategies take the worry out of doing everyday chores and generally make life easier. Just like you can use life hacks to make life easier, you can use strategies to make trading the Forex easier. By sticking with these Forex Life Hacks, you increase your chances of Forex success: Forex Life Hack 1: Memorize the Top Candlestick Formations Every trader knows to watch the candlesticks, but how many know candlesticks enough to see their recurring patterns?  Few traders realize that candlesticks do more than show what the market is doing in that time frame, they also come together to create formations that expert traders can spot and use for pro ts. There are a wide variety of candlesticks, and a lot of them have some pretty unique names, but there are a few that are important to remember:

http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

76/133

24.7.2017

Some candlestick formations to take note of are the Bullish Tweezer Bottom, the Bullish Piercing Line, the Bearish Engul ng Candle and the Bearish Shooting Star.  Each of these names gives an indication of the market direction and makes some connection between the candlestick and its wick. Spotting these formations early allows you to get into the market right before a major move occurs, thus increasing your pro t potential and allowing you to strike while the iron is hot. Forex Life Hack 2: Stick to 2 or 3 Strategies...Max. A phrase we like to use is “simplicity leads to pips”. When you come at the market with 20 different strategies, you end up stretching yourself too thin and you miss out on pro ts because you’re trying too hard. That’s why it’s important to limit the strategies you use to two or three at a max. Why three?  It’s not because it’s a handy number, or one that translates easily.  It’s because there are three types of market movements, and it helps to have a strategy for each. You need a strategy for when you day trade, a strategy for when you are in a swing and/or a position trade, and one strategy for sideways movement. Having three trusted strategies for each of these market conditions means that you should be more prepared to quickly review the market, whether the market is making for quick day trading movements, or is experiencing consolidation that spans ten or more days. You have http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

something to analyze the conditions against, and the strategies to help you take advantage Free Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy of these moves. Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t Forex Life Hack 3: Use Multiple Time Frames to Trade DOWNLOAD IT NOW The number one question new traders ask is what time frame they should trade within. The answer to this varies, but the bottom line is You should always be trading on more than one time frame! How can this work?   It’s simple, time frames don’t work in a vacuum.  Each one has an effect on the other, and patterns that appear in long-term trades make appearances in short-term trades...and vice versa. For example, if you’re looking to enter on the one-hour chart, you want to begin your analysis on at least the 4-hour chart or any larger time frame’s chart. The rule is to always have your secondary, larger time frame be at least four times the size of your initial time frame.

Think of timeframes of having a parent-child relationship to each other.  The larger timeframes will have an effect on the smaller ones, much like parents have an effect on their children. The larger timeframe sets the scene for the smaller timeframes. Once you’ve established the overall direction of the market by the larger timeframes, you can trade the smaller timeframes for the speci c entry and exit points. A monthly time frame typically shows the next A-B-C-D formation for only the next 2,000 pips-worth of movement. The daily time frame shows the corresponding movements that create the larger A-B-C-D formation for the next 500 to 1,000 pips worth of market action.

The great thing about this method is that it solves the largest problem that faces many currency traders. That problem is knowing when to stop buying and when to start selling. With the larger movement identi ed, traders can better determine when the market’s tides are preparing to change for a full movement in the other direction, as opposed to the natural wave-like movements that make up large market swings. Forex Life Hack 3: Never Risk More than 2 - 5% of Your Account A good piece of advice in life is to never risk more than you’re willing to lose. Whether you’re trading in the stock market or taking a mortgage out on your house, you should never put up more than you can live without. This is especially true when the thing you’re risking is money.

It’s worth mentioning again: You should NEVER risk more than you’re willing to lose. The Ultimate Traders Package on Demand™ suggests never risking more than ve percent of your account. You have to understand, before going into the market, that every trade you might do comes with it some risk. There isn’t a trader in history that has a 100% winning percentage.  The fact of the matter is that you will lose at some point, but  when you manage your risk successfully you can take those losses and live to ght another day. You also want to be able to put in enough money to make a pro t.  After over 20 years of experience, we have gured out that the sweet spot between making money, and not going bankrupt when losing money, falls in the two to ve percent range. We recommend beginner or more risk-averse traders to start with risking only two percent of your current trading pool in every trade.  Once you become more experienced in the market, or your pro ts have risen enough, you can move to three, four, or the full ve percent.

One of the more famous, often used, strategies is something theMade HeadEasy andFree and Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Optionscalled Trading Shoulders pattern.  This happens whenComplete a bullish trending makes and begins Guide tomarket Consistent Proa peak t to retract. The name comes from the picture the market makes as it peaks and valleys. The DOWNLOAD ITit NOW highest point is the head, and the two lows on either side of are the shoulders.  In theory, you draw a “neckline” connecting the two shoulders and begin to trade at that point.

The problem is, the market will often overcorrect itself and you’ve taken a loss before you knew what hit you.  That’s why the FX Chief™  prefers to trade a different pattern: The King’s Crown. The King’s Crown is trading beyond the “shoulders” of the Head and Shoulders pattern. Once the market takes out a low of support, it has a tendency to bounce back up and wave before the market nally falls. In this strategy, your stop would be taken out on that rally right before the market turned to complete your direction. Basically, you aren’t trading the neckline, you are trading the breaking point beyond the lowest low. This extra spike in the market (turning the person in a crown) allows you to see the true indication of the markets and could lessen the chance you have of taking on losses in the future. Forex Life Hack 5: Learn to Love the Stochastic RSI Think of the ups and downs of the market as trends like in the fashion industry. Take leg warmers for instance. Back in the 80s leg warmers were very popular, they were used by a large segment of the population, and then once it hit a certain point it became TOO popular and there was a backlash created against it, making the trend slowly go away. A lot of fashion manufacturers would have loved to have known when the trend was starting to go away. They would have wished they knew some kind of indicator. There might not be an indicator like that for the fashion industry, but there is for the markets. It’s called the stochastic RSI, and it could be your key to trading. The stochastic RSI is made up of two lines that serve as a sort of benchmark for when the market is looking to reverse.  If the stock is traded too high, it will break that line and begin http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t Having a handle on the two barriers that the stochastic lineIT makes DOWNLOAD NOW up will give you a sense as to when you should reverse your direction and go from bull to bear, and vice versa. Forex Life Hack 6: Utilize Stop-Losses for Your Wins How familiar does this sound? You put in to the market and, like a good trader, you set your stop.  However, you nd yourself constantly being taken out just before your big win.  It’s a common problem that has one easy solution

You need to change your stop-losses as the market changes! As the market uctuates, the stop losses grow larger in size. This volatility creates higher highs and higher lows, which can spell higher pro ts for smart traders. And smart traders adjust their stop losses to mirror the market. Traders make stop losses to prevent themselves from losing their entire account over the course of one trade.  By setting a minimum number for the market to hit, once the market hits that number, the trade is automatically ended and the loss is taken. The way to properly use a uid stop-loss number is to move the minimum number in accordance with the market moves. Let’s look at an example. The chart below has several yellow circles. These circles represent the stop-loss price at different times in the trading timeframe.  Starting from the furthest left circle, you would adjust your stop-loss to match the next lowest number the market hits (which is the new yellow circle). Even without the bene t of seeing the actual numbers, you can see the difference between the furthest left and the furthest right circle. This pip difference would be lost if you didn’t utilize a moving stop-loss number.

How do you know when to move your stop-loss? It’s easy.  Look for a high or a low that has two candlesticks to the left, and two candlesticks to the right that are either higher or lower from that point.  A high will have two lows to the left and right, a low will have two highs to the left and right. Forex Life Hack 7: Using Reversals to Your Advantage Trading occurs in a 24-hour window consisting of three different trading sessions: European, U.S. and Asian sessions.  The European session has the most movement, followed by the U.S. and then the Asian markets. More often than not, the market will reverse directions when one session ends and the other begins. It’s by playing off this reversal that the most pips are captured. It stands to reason that if the European session is trending bullish that once the American session kicks in, it will set up a reversal and the market will turn into a bear. By utilizing this strategy you can pinpoint the reversal points, take advantage of the market movement, and identify when a market high and low will occur. With three trading sessions happening per day, there is the potential for 2 reversal points per day, which means that using only one strategy can dictate how you look at three different markets. Forex Life Hack 8: Pinning Your Trading Personality There are four distinct types of trading personalities.  Finding yours could be the key to trading your strengths and limiting your weaknesses.

However, because they trade in such short timeframes, the Now Trader tends to trade more often and have more straightforward trading strategies. The In-The-Game Trader: These traders love to check into the market daily, but prefer their action to be longer-lasting and tend to favor larger pip captures over a longer period of time. The daily trader often trades in the more mid-range timeframes and pays close attention to reversals and predictive bs. The Adrenaline Junkie Trader: These traders only trade once, or a couple times, per month based on major announcements such as quarterly or earnings reports.  They love the riskiness of the market and tend to trade for only a couple hours at a time, but they end up winning big if their strategies hold true. The Low-Maintenance Trader: The ultimate set-it-and-forget-it trader.  They like to trade in the long-term by utilizing strategies that end up with big pro ts over many months.  They aren’t looking for the thrill of the high-risk maneuver, or the commitment of a daily trading schedule.  Rather, they are banking on safer picks that will bene t them in the future.

THE BULLISH ASCENDING TRIANGLE By Chris Kimble, KimbleChartingSolutions.com

Introduction My passion is nding chart patterns that are at extremes and have a high probability to reverse or breakout. My goal is to be your “28 Second” Solution to investment research.  This phrase comes from a friend who shared that my chart pattern research helps him to quickly see the pattern at hand and the action to take.  My name is Chris Kimble, founder of Kimble Charting Solutions, an investment research rm where we attempt to help people save time, reduce risk and improve decision-making with the “Power of the Pattern”. The term “Power of the Pattern” describes the type of research I produce on a daily basis.  I don’t attempt to predict what will happen or respond to news or opinions of the world.  Rather, I look to identify chart patterns at extreme exhaustion points that have a high probability for reversals and breakouts. By extreme exhaustion I’m referring to price action that re ect excess fear and greed of global investors. These excesses can be seen in the form of patterns within a chart.  The type of pattern provides us with probabilities for potential turning points in the form of reversals or breakouts.

CHAPTER 13

TRADING FROM THE GUT: IS IT A GOOD THING? By Kenneth Reid, Day Trading Psychology

Greetings traders, I’m a day trader and trading coach with a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology.  This e-book is about trading techniques, a quintessential topic because without a solid technical method, traders will absolutely drive ourselves crazy. The topic I’d like to discuss is trading intuitively, or “Trading from the Gut.” Humans have two brains and one of them (the right hemisphere) is highly intuitive. Naturally, traders wonder how best to incorporate intuition into trading, because… it’s always there offering an opinion. And because there's nothing methodical about intuition (it’s totally subjective and discretionary) it often creates a nagging inner con ict with a more objective (technical) perspective. DON’T DRIVE YOURSELF CRAZY Discretionary trading is psychologically the most challenging work experience you are likely to ever have, unless you are in the military. Why?

Because it will feel like your own mind is working against you… which is what crazy people feel.  It’s like having Mad Money inside your head. Part of your brain is yelling “buy, buy, buy!” and another part is shouting “sell, sell, sell!’ Fortunately, this inner argument can be mitigated if the trader’s technical method is 1) well understood and 2) suits the trader’s own personality. So before we address the intuitive side of trading, let’s take a short detour and look at these two pre-quali cations. The personality analysis will then lead directly into a discussion of gut-based trading. 1. For one’s method to be “well-understood” it has to be built by the trader from the ground up, or at least extensively tested. This is the only way to have su cient con dence to endure drawdowns without feeling compelled to re-design the method. If you are constantly changing your method, i.e., searching for the Holy Grail, you won’t get anywhere at all. Markets do evolve, of course, but if your method has a positive expectancy, change it as infrequently as possible. Generally, sticking with one method that you have http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

absolutely mastered is better than trying to develop a different method for every Free Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy market mood. Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t 2. Finding/developing a method that “suits your personality” is also essential. However, DOWNLOAD IT NOW most traders have no idea what their trader personality might be. I use my own 5-Type model, which is easy to understand. Let’s look at two opposite personality types, the Warrior and the Engineer. Trader personality fundamentally in uences how you de ne risk and reward. A Warrior personality, such as found in most Chicago-trained traders, is generally riskseeking and much less methodical than an Engineer personality, which is likely to be risk averse and very disciplined.   The Warrior trader is usually comfortable doing things like buying or selling extremes and adding to a losing position (they call it “scaling in”), while the Engineer would consider that behavior sloppy and reckless. In a nutshell, the Engineer relies on “brains,” whereas the Warrior relies on a different part of his male anatomy. Warriors will often use market orders to enter in a general area of interest, usually at an extreme, and many are contrarians, who look to play reversals. Engineers, on the other hand, tend to feel more comfortable using limit orders for a satisfyingly precise entry after the Warriors have taken their positions, and then might look for trend continuation. Of course not all Warriors are countertrend traders and not all Engineers are trend followers, but I would argue that most Warriors are risk seekers and most Engineers are risk-averse. Bottom line: Your personality is already in uencing your trading because it determines how you de ne opportunity, risk and reward. According to my research, trader personality is a combination of 5 different styles, and the best traders are not overly expressive of one single type. Rather, they are integrated hybrids and that hybridization process happens slowly, as traders mature. In the end, Warriors must become more methodical and Engineers must become more comfortable with risk in order for each to ful ll their trader potential. To nd out more about trader personality you can take a free AWARE© personality pro le on my website www.daytradingpsychology.com WHAT ABOUT TRADING FROM THE GUT? Here’s the segue into the topic of intuition….your personality determines to what degree you are attracted to intuitive trading. Warrior traders trade from the gut all the time. It’s naturally their dominant style. They think with their gut and act from their gut and their account balances usually uctuate wildly. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Fortunately, psychologists recently discovered that there is Free Bonus eBook from Easy a brain in the gut,Our so Sponsors: Warriors doOptions have a Trading ghting Made chance. Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t Their main challenge is keeping losses small because they DOWNLOAD IT NOW are natural risk-seekers. And regardless of your personality type, the more intuitively you trade, the more carefully you need to manage losses, or they will get out of hand.  ARE YOU TRADING RISK OR REWARD? Nigel Hawkes, a very experienced Warrior trader and friend, is fond of saying that “I don’t trade price, I trade risk.”  They seek out risk because they know, in their gut, that without risk there is no chance of reward. They don’t shy away from risk, they embrace it and get charged up from it. Without a steady supply of risk, Warriors get bored and feel useless.  But for the average non-Warrior trader, risk is not their friend. The average trader tries to avoid risk because for them, risk = loss. (Their ideal fantasy is a market without risk.) Their thinking goes like this: “Why think about possibly losing when the goal is to win? Wouldn’t that be negative and self-defeating?” This naïve assumption is why most traders start out trading Reward, not risk. In analyzing a potential trade, they only think about how much they could make. But if you have not planned and prepared to lose, trading Reward sets you up for shock and disappointment when the market suddenly moves against you. Every loss is then a small trauma for the blindsided Reward trader. And in that panicked emotional state, you are likely to make mistakes, which will result in some of those small unrealized losses suddenly becoming large realized ones. That creates the standard boom/bust pattern for Reward traders. They are lucky if they can stay at breakeven.

What’s the alternative? Trader development is largely about integrating complementary personality qualities (hybridization, as noted above) and making the shift from trading Reward to trading Risk. In my own trading, this means using my professional trading to read price action psychologically.  I trade futures and I try to determine where the Reward-driven Traders are likely to stop themselves out. The principle is simple: if you are trading in a mine eld, you don’t want to be on point. I prefer to wait until a group of Reward Traders suddenly change their minds and now believe that they have made a mistake. This motivates them to liquidate their positions at a discount. And that’s where I like to enter. HOW TO MAKE THE MINDSHIFT

DOWNLOAD IT NOW  Below is a summary of a video I produced on Trading from the Gut and a link to the downloadable video le, which is just 5 minutes long. By the way, the video is not just informational, if you use headphones it’s an experiential lesson that might actually help you change this habit if you listen to it every day for a week or two. (And there’s a link if you want to get one of these videos every week.) TRADING FROM THE GUT Looking at a cold chart, trading looks seductively easy. Hindsight is a beautiful thing. The lure of hindsight is that we imagine that somehow we could have or should have known what was going to happen at pivot X… or pivot Y.  We like to imagine that we could have taken advantage of the big drop or the big rally. It’s particularly pleasurable to imagine this because when the thought of a beautiful winning trade ashes through our mind, even in fantasy, the brain generates a jolt of the neurotransmitter dopamine. Dopamine is  mentally energizing and motivating. It fuels the primitive hunter in us who constantly stalks the big trade. Unfortunately, dopamine is also addictive… it’s the active compound in  cocaine. Curiously, more dopamine is generated by the thought of potential reward than by the actual reward. This is what kept those hungry hunters going for days and it motivates traders to dream big and be over-focused on reward (dinner). If you are chronically low on dopamine (which has a genetic cause) one of the best ways to raise it is to imagine great trades. Each imaginative/intuitive foray into a positive future generates a shot of pleasure and hope, just like a rat pressing a lever. THE DREAMER vs. THE REALIST There’s no harm in dreaming. The harm comes when we act on the fantasy… with real money. (Strike One.)  And then use our factual knowledge to justify the imagined scenario. (Strike Two). And then fail to recognize/admit when we are wrong. (Strike Three!) It’s amazing how utterly convinced we can become about the pro t potential of our own fantasies. Of course, casino operators rely on this all too human quirk to keep customers playing as long as possible. But in trading, the trader is the casino… the player, the dealer and the pit boss. In other words, there’s no objective supervision. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Trading It’s Made Easytomotivate an addict to quit while they still have money drugs and it’s tjust as tough to Complete Guidetotobuy Consistent Pro get a compulsively hope-ium-smoking trader to stop dreaming while he/she still has DOWNLOAD IT NOW capital. Once we take action on a fantasy, we become so psychologically invested in our imagined outcome (which constantly shoots dopamine into the brain circuits) that we will ignore all discon rming information until reality pulls the needle out and slaps us hard upside the head. Unfortunately, intuitive traders rarely learn from their mistakes, which means they keep trying until they run out of funds. Indeed, trading intuitively from the gut is one of the fastest ways to blow up an account. Then I get the call: “Can you help me? I’ve really screwed up.” There’s a book entitled Trading from the Gut by one of the original Turtles, Curtis Faith, who did blow up several funds and eventually faced personal bankruptcy. Faith was a math and programming whiz when he was 19 years old, which is why he was selected by Richard Dennis, but he abandoned that skill later in life, went to the opposite extreme and has not yet come back to the middle. For his sake I hope he nds it.    MISSING PIECES FOR INTUITIVE TRADERS

What’s missing from gut-level trading? Three things. First, an appreciation of the market’s random nature (Read Mark Douglas or Taleb’s Fooled by Randomness). Intuitive trading is based on the fantasy that we now have or can have privileged information about the future. I call it mindreading the market… but the market doesn’t have a mind….or a plan… and it doesn’t know what it’s going to do next, so how could we know?

The inner gambler’s justi cation story goes like this: “Why prepare for loss if I don’t expect to lose?” Third, purely intuitive trading lacks any objective reference. It’s all subjective, all the time. Most intuitive traders trade naked, i.e. without indicators, just levels.  BOTTOM LINE

If you have a tendency to manufacture intuitive ideas and then act on them without objective con rmation, it’s important to nip this tendency in the bud, as this is extremely high risk behavior. My short answer on how to incorporate intuition in one’s trading goes like this:

Trading is like driving. Driving is a discretionary and intuitive activity that gets you from Point A to Point B, but you rst need to have a car and know (and obey) the rules of the road. The ‘car’ and the 'rules of the road' comprise your technical method, which must have a positive expectancy to be effective. Intuition can (and probably should) be used to enhance one’s driving on the margins, but it is not an adequate substitute for a rule-based method. http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

DISCOVER OPTIONS TRADING SUCCESS WITH BUBBA’S 8 SECRET INDICATORS By Todd Horwitz, TheBubbaShow.org

Today, many investors get lost in the noise and news that they see on TV, read in the Wall Street Journal and on the internet. Their portfolios include investments including mutual funds, stocks, and bonds. Investors also confuse themselves on what is a trade and what is an investment, combine that with the fake news of the day and investors have no idea what to do. Our experience tells us that anyone can learn the methods of options trading that we teach. Because our approach is start from the very beginning and to relate to things you do every day.  It is education that is applicable to your everyday life; not theoretical models out of a text book. Beginners start with the basics and work their way up while we teach veteran traders some of the secrets from the oor and how they can accelerate their earnings.  Regardless of experience or acumen, we use a very simple approach which should allow everyone to learn options trading AND to pro t from options trading.  Quite simply, there are no complex formulas and no previous experience necessary. The key is in learning our methods and using our 8 Secret Indicators. Bubba’s 8 Secret Indicators Price action is among the most popular trading concepts and a trader who knows how to use price action the right way can improve their performance and their way of looking at charts. Secret Indicator #1 (Negative Weekly Close Thrust) This is a powerful and highly pro table indicator that is based upon weekly closes in major index options. This insider method uses SPY and here is the indicator: Buy an ATM SPY weekly call at the close on Friday (or the last trading day of the week) if SPY has closed lower for two or three consecutive weeks (this week included). The long weekly call is then sold at the close on Friday the following weekly expiration. Since 1/1/2015, we have had twenty setups and twenty closed trades. The average ATM call http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

premium for SPY is $123.00 (which is also the maximum loss) and we made $4,043.00 on eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Madeand Easy the twenty trades for anFree ROIBonus of 164.3%. This indicator produced 75% winning trades anout of this world pro t factor of 7.57 Complete Guide to Consistent Pro t DOWNLOAD IT NOW

Secret Indicator #2 (52-week High/Low Reversal Setup) Traders often miss the obvious. If a market is making new 52 week lows or new 52 week highs, what happens next? What happens next is an intermediate trend change. Of course, this is a contrarian play that the majority of traders will be afraid to make because we see extreme bullishness at tops and extreme bearishness at bottoms. We take advantage of this. The least risky way to participate in this setup is to buy options- straight calls and puts. This can be done in stocks or futures. You want to buy 90-120 days of time (at least) to lessen high per-day time decay and to give us enough time for the market to change direction. History shows this setup if employed properly will provide 79% winning trades with the average winner ve times the average loser. This provides huge pro ts. Secret Indicator #3 (Big Range Indicator) What is the meaning of a big range bar? If you examine 35 years of history in stocks and futures you will see that big range bars result in more big range bars. If a market suddenly erupts with a big range day, expect to see more big range days. If we get a higher close for a big range day, expect higher prices straight ahead with many more positive close big range days. The reverse is also true if we get a big range day that closes lower and we are at or near market highs. This indicator works well on weekly charts as I have provided below for SPY. The green arrows indicate big weekly range bars. The bigger the range in a trending market- the bigger the pro t.

Secret Indicator #4 (Too Far Too Fast Indicator) Many traders do not understand that markets that make large moves in a short period of time always pause to refresh the gains. This gives nimble short and intermediate term traders the opportunity to take advantage of sharp reactions against the major trend after a large move. We see this pattern over and over in virtually every market. You can use various charting tools to anticipate a reversal point, but you want to wait for the market to reverse before you jump in. Straight calls and puts are ideal here because you have limited risk and unlimited pro t potential. Look at the chart of GLD and you can see the opportunities that it has presented to fade fast moves.

Secret Indicator #5 (Regression to Pro t Indicator) Pro traders know about mean regression. They simply put a 90-day regression line of their charts and watch for price to extend several inches above or below the regression line. Look at the green arrows on the chart- they signify areas where you want to buy or sell because the premise of this indicator is that we will snap-back to the regression line. Large pro ts are taken when we get back to the regression line after extending above or below the line.

Secret Indicator #6 (Month-end Window Dressing Indicator) This indicator is one of the most pro table there is and for good reason. Professional traders know that institutional money managers like to have a good showing at month end. To achieve that goal, they buy stock one week before the end of the month knowing the probability is that prices will go higher during that last week of the month. What we do is to buy stock or options to take advantage of this. Look at the performance in SPY just since the start of 2016. The data shows the Open/High/Low/Close for SPY on a weekly basis. We buy at the weekly close one week before the last trading day of the month. For example, on 1/22/16 we bought when SPY was 190.52 and sold a week later at the end of the month for 193.72. An ATM one week option for example, picked up 3.20 of intrinsic value or about $320.00 for a one week option that costs about $123.00

Secret Indicator #7 (Market High Footprint Indicator) This is based upon simple logic. If a market is trading at a one month high, go long and put your initial stop under the lowest low made during the last 30 days. Once you are in the trade, stay with your position as long as the market is making new highs. If it stalls out and starts to trade lower, move your stop up to one tick below the lowest low of the last 10 days. If you are stopped out, wait for the market to made another one month high and repeat the process. This indicator has resulted in 63% winning trades with the average winner 2.5x the average loser. This simple pattern recognition method will produce signi cant pro ts over time. Secret Indicator #8 (Market Low Footprint Indicator) This is based upon simple logic. If a market is trading at a one month low, go short and put your initial stop above the highest high made during the last 30 days. Once you are in the trade, stay with your position as long as the market is making new lows. If it stalls out and starts to trade higher, move your stop up to one tick above the highest high of the last 10 days. If you are stopped out, wait for the market to make another one month low and repeat the process. This indicator has resulted in 61% winning trades with the average winner 2X the average loser. Over time, this seemingly simple pattern will produce signi cant pro ts over time.

USING THE ADX INDICATOR TO TRADE OPTIONS IN COMMODITIES By David Marsh, EMiniTradingStrategies.com

In this chapter, I'm going to discuss how I use seasonal trends and the ADX indicator to pinpoint option trades in commodity markets.  By using the ADX and seasonal trends, I am able to very successfully collect option premium several times per year in certain commodities. And do so year in, year out. As this E-book is focused on technical indicators, most of my writing will be based on just that. However, I will also discuss my strategy for you to better understand how I trade the way I do.

I am a non-directional commodities trader.  Directional trading is di cult for most. In the eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy same sense, trying toFree useBonus only seasonal trends often leaves a trader frustrated.  ByCompletetrends, Guide and to Consistent Pro t I am able to combining out of the money options, seasonal the ADX indicator, successfully trade the futures markets.  You could say I trade DOWNLOAD IT where NOW I believe the market is less likely to go. I’ll go into that a bit more later. Commodities options allow me to go deep out of the money and collect very nice premiums that I could not otherwise do trading stocks.  Admittedly, I do trade options on stocks. In fact, I do so every day. However, I use a completely different technique.  I simply cannot go deep out of the money on a stock say, ATT or JNJ for example, and collect a reasonable premium.  In commodities, I do it all the time. Seasonal trends exist in commodities where they generally do not in the stock market. For instance, grain stocks tend to be lower around harvest time because of the abundant supply and will generally trend higher during the planting season. Markets such as Crude do not have the same production cycles as grains. But consumers, over time, generally have the same spending habits. For example, oil prices typically move higher in anticipation of the summer driving season. Seasonal trends are important, but they should not be used in isolation. Many believe they can go long or short a commodity on a certain date and let the seasonal trends do what they do. It’s just not that simple. If it were, everyone would do it! Sometimes a low may be in place December of one year, but October the next. Thus, at least in my opinion, seasonal trends are not an accurate indicator on their own to be used as the basis for initiating trades. However, don't get me wrong, seasonal trends and tendencies are a great tool and in fact, a tool that I use and couple with the ADX indicator to formulate a more targeted strategy. The ADX is used to quantify trend strength and is a non-directional indicator and many make the mistake of misinterpreting the ADX for that very reason. They see the ADX going up and they believe the market is going up. However, that may not be the case.  This is why we also incorporate the directional movement indictors, or DMI. When DMI(+) is above the DMI(-) prices are moving up and the ADX will show the strength of that move. When DMI(-) is above the DMI(+) the trend is down and the ADX will show the selling strength accordingly. When looking at the ADX the numbers range from 0 – 100.  A reading from 0-25 is a weak trend. 25-50 is a strong trend, 50-75 is a very strong trend and 75-100 is an extremely strong trend. Many traders use both RSI and stochastics as a tool to gauge overbought/oversold conditions.  The common problem with this approach is that a strong trending market can remain overbought for a long time! So, traders that simply sell short when a market is overbought are often frustrated to nd that the market continues to rise. The same thing applies to options traders. Selling call options above current market price simply because the stochastics or RSI is overbought is a great way to nd your call option in the money! If you use stochastics, be sure to check the ADX rst. If the ADX is in a strong trend, the market may continue to move higher.   I would not personally short a market based on http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Let’s look at some recent trades that I took using seasonal tendencies and the ADX. Below, you'll see a chart of the seasonal trends of Corn:

Personally, I disregard the 40-year trends and focus more on the 15 year.  In the above chart, it’s very clear that the annual highs of the season happen between May and midJune.  From mid-June, corn typically moves to the lows of the year while nally bottoming out around October. At rst glance, many feel they have found the Holy Grail!  They simply wait for mid-June and short corn futures or sell out of the money call options. Truthfully, however, many years they will do ok, but not always!  Don’t let seasonal trend charts fool you.  Timing is everything. For example, let’s look at this daily corn chart below and see if we can nd a good time to enter a corn trade:

*ADX: Black;  DMI(+): Blue;  DMI(-): Red Free Bonus eBook from Our Sponsors: Options Trading Made Easy Complete Consistent Pro t tendency is to Point 1: On June 8, 2017 corn peaked above 390. Guide Even to though the seasonal go down around this time of year, look at the ADX.  The ADX was near a reading of 100 DOWNLOAD IT NOW (extremely strong trend). Of course with hindsight, we see it does pull back from the highs and a strictly seasonal trader might be tempted to go short at this time. However, that is not what I did...yet. Point2: I waited until around June 14, 2017. Notice the trend is losing strength fast. Also DMI(-) crossed over DMI(+). That was my entry signal. I sold naked calls at 405 and brought in nearly $700 dollars in premium per option.  About 6 days later, the corn market bottomed out around 350. However, DMI(-) was on the rise and DMI(+) was trending down.  Seasonal trends tell me this is likely to continue, but since I had a very nice pro t of $500 per option contract, I closed the trade early as the ADX told me the trend might be changing. At this point, you might be asking whether this is subjective?  To a degree, it is.  I have a rule however, that if I've collected 70 percent of the available premium on a trade, I take the money and move on.  But, what if I didn’t have this rule? What could I have done?  As we can see, right after that low was established, corn started trending higher.  If I remained in the trade at that point, it would have still been pro table, but losing ground. Then, on June 29th, DMI(-) crossed over DMI(+) and the ADX was now trending higher.  Had I still been in that position, I would have closed at once and would have locked in a respectable gain of around $300 per contract. If not for my 70 percent rule, I would have given back some pro t. It's also worth noting that corn (during July) did NOT do at all what the seasonal trends show us!  Corn broke 400 and went nearly to 410 in July 2017.  Look back at the seasonal chart and you can see corn grinding lower and lower in July! This is precisely why you should not trade seasonal trends by themselves!  Use indicators such as ADX to pinpoint your entries. Now, let’s back up a bit and discuss why I chose the 405 calls. Remember, my strategy is to trade deep out of the money options and try to predict where the market will NOT go.  Using the seasonal chart that I purchase from MRCI (and past experience) I know that June is a good time to put on this trade. I used the ADX to pinpoint a date.  At that time, corn was trading just below 380. The delta on the 405 calls were around 25%. Meaning they have a 25% likelihood of going at the money, or in the money.  Because of the ADX and seasonal tendencies, I was con dent that 405 would not hit. Was I right?  Short term I was ...and fortunately, I had the 70 percent rule!  But now the question is, would I reenter the corn trade?  NO!  Look at the seasonal chart and you can see a bit of a bounce towards the end of July and August.  Remember, those are averages and not perfect. To me, the corn market made its bottom early...Keep that in mind when using seasonals to trade. You cannot set your watch by them. Use the ADX to pinpoint entries and exits whether you are trading futures or options.

First, let’s look at the seasonal trends of crude:

As you can see, the market seems to bottom out in January and February and then starts trending higher. This is a very common occurrence and many traders place this trade. Most of the time it’s a sure thing! I also take this trade. Of course, I wait for the ADX for con rmation and around February 10th the ADX showed the DMI(+) crossing the DMI(-). But, notice the ADX trend. It’s strong, but not very strong. And look at the tight channel. In any event, I sold 38 puts about 6 months out. Here’s that chart:

ADX: Black;  DMI(+): Blue;  DMI(-): Red While it had spikes both up and down, the overall market trend was down.  I am actually still in this position.  I used long term puts that were deep out of the money. When I entered, crude was hovering above 50 and the 38 puts were deep out of the money. Now with crude trading at 44 (as of this writing) they are no longer deep out of the money. They are out of the money, but not by much. In fact around June 18th, my exit rules almost took me out of the 38 puts. In other words, I would have bought them back at a loss and moved on.  But the next day, crude took off back to 47 and with the passage of time, my position started to show a pro t. However, not for long. It has since moved back down and once again approaching the point in which I will have to either roll the position or close it. What will I do?  I follow my rules!  I have rules for entries, exits (stops) and pro ts.  While I will not give it all away in this e-book, I will say that once the delta of my put reaches around 35, I will either roll out or simply close for a loss. Currently, the delta is 24 and is very unlikely (at least statistically) to reach that level. Remember, I have also 3 months of time decay (Theta), so any move up will result in pro t. In summary, using the ADX along with seasonal tendencies is a proven way to make money trading options on futures. Remember, however, they are just tools.  You need to have both a plan, and rules to follow. Learn to follow your rules with the utmost discipline, no matter what. It really does come down to rules.  Trading is tough. Make no mistake about it.  I started trading at the young age of 18 when I received a mailer about blue chip investing.  Like http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

When you analyze the basis of trading success, it comes down to the following: At any point you trade or invest, you are predicting the future price development of an asset based on situational analysis. Common tools, like moving averages, MACD, Bollinger Bands, etc. produce an average predictability of the price direction between 51% and 55%. If you constantly found trade situations that gave you a $2 reward for a $1 risk, those indicators would give you an edge, and with such simple tools, your trading success would be right in front of you; however, the trading reality is different and we would like to explain why. Prediction connects the subjective and the objective reality. This means, your prediction will meet the real world in the continuation of the trade and you quickly realize how well you did. We specify high performance trading at winning ≥ 65% of the time, multiplied with a high frequency of opportunities at clearly de ned entries, exits, and stops. We put it all in words for you in this report, but if you are a visual learner, you can also click on this picture to watch the video:

We show in the video a more explicit explanation of why standard indicators do not get you to high performance trading. First, let’s compare the three types of traders: http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

DOWNLOAD IT NOW Day Traders with a focus on four trades per day. Standard indicators like moving averages announce a trading opportunity a little after the fact on the way in and out of a trade. Thus, they produce less opportunities for swing traders and long-term investors. For day traders, we assume that both standard indicators and high performance indicators will allow for the same amount of trades in a day, just at a different rate of accuracy. When we combine the expected accuracy of high performance indicators, which measure the underlying action of a potential price move and thus allow an early entry and a follow through on a continuation-stage of the price move, we calculate as follows: Chart-1: Standard and High Performance Indicators Compared at 1:1 Reward/Risk

In Summary: High performance indicators give you a 5 – 15 times higher return opportunity as a result of the higher participation rate combined with the higher accuracy of prediction. You might now say: But how would this look like if you only participated in 2:1 opportunities? Here are the calculated results: Chart-2: Standard and High Performance Indicators Compared at 2:1 Reward/Risk

Chart-2 shows that the factor difference of high performance indicators at a 1:1 reward/risk compared to a 2:1 reward to risk at standard indicators is still favoring high performance indicators with a factor of 2.5 – 7.5 times the expected return.  We show you in the following that the real attainment rate of comparing the two will be very different. Why is that? High performance indicators are focused on replicating the natural happening at the nancial market rather than squeezing the price development into a xed mathematical operation: Institutional investors dominate more than 85% of all nancial market transactions. At one point of a price development, they rebalance their inventories and initiate a counter price development, which in most cases brings a quick end to the 2:1 trade situation assumption and you get stopped out with a loss instead of making the desired return. If you ask yourself why that is, we best explain by using a graph that brings the base assumption of a 2:1 price move in reality to the average expected price development of an underlying asset with the following reason: A rst phase of a demand-driven price move is recognized and followed by other market participants and prices increase by the additional demand. After a certain price expansion, key asset holders oat supply and prices start to fall, allowing them to buy back inventory at better prices to then sell the assets back to the market on a second demand phase and at favorable prices, assuring long-term pro t for the key asset holders.

Chart-5 shows that at the end of the price development over time, the target price was reached, however, the trade got stopped out prior and a loss was produced; even so the overall price direction was predicted right. This trading reality is experienced by many retail traders and we would like to help you put an end to it. Price is not a variable, it is a result of a preceding change in supply and demand that can be measured and predicted forward with a high probability of how far it will reach until prices’ probability retrace or reverse. Similarly, important is how to calculate the key price action point, and where to place the stop. We must consider the average statistical volatility of the observed asset price, and in addition, be at a price level that will cause institutional investors pain and effort to bring the price there. In the nal step, you decide if you accept a trade or not, by bringing the potential reward (Expected Price Move – Entry Price) in relation to the Risk at trade setup (Price Move to Stop from Entry) and trade with an edge or not. In summary, trading with an edge requires effort and preparation. Fortunately, we have done the work for you by putting all trade determining variables together in our trading systems, so you can take all decisions right from the chart. Here an example for NLT Trend Catching, where we measure the underlying price pressure and de ne high probabilities for a directional price move and how far it shall reach and http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php

Chart-6 expresses: Multiple Buy> and Sell < indications, where the system gave you multiple entry points to participate in the up- or down move by trading the stock or options (we have developed a very strong option trading concept that we share in our mentorship program). The gray dot on the chart signi es the target exit that should be reached after three bars (3 weeks),else you take out the trade at the closing of the third candle in the trade. The red horizontal bar is your stop or adjustment level (you learn how to x a trade, when this price level is reached, aiming to reduce losses or turning a loser into a winner).  At every bar you get an evaluation if the chart setup is risky (no trade), acceptable (potential trade) or favorable; expressed on a chart dashboard. There you also see bar by bar the spelled out trade entry and stop-price-levels, the return on cash, and the percentage price move. Had you banked on the rst trade setup: Buy > $227.16, for a 2:1 move, reality caught up with you and either stopped you or you are still in the trade for after six months at $219.64: a $7.52 loss/share or a -3.3% return. The same issue would have occurred on the next three trade situations, when banking on a 2:1 setup. By following the NLT trade rules, the results would look as follows, producing a solid return of 13.3% in six months: quite a difference to a -3.3% return with the wrong price http://topcharttraders.com/ebook/Insider_Tips-Best_High_Performance_Indicators/index.php
