    welcome to today's Deep dive into
  • 00:00:02
    technical analysis and how to read
  • 00:00:04
    Candlestick charts in this class I'm
  • 00:00:07
    going to give you a comprehensive
  • 00:00:09
    breakdown of how to use technical
  • 00:00:11
    analysis the right way you probably know
  • 00:00:14
    that most Traders out there lose money
  • 00:00:17
    and you may also know that most Traders
  • 00:00:19
    do not understand the right way to read
  • 00:00:22
    Candlestick charts and to apply
  • 00:00:24
    technical analysis now one of the things
  • 00:00:26
    that's really cool is technical analysis
  • 00:00:29
    is a univers I language of the financial
  • 00:00:31
    markets it doesn't matter if you're
  • 00:00:33
    trading Bitcoin ethereum Forex futures
  • 00:00:37
    or stock any Financial instrument when
  • 00:00:40
    you pull up the Candlestick chart will
  • 00:00:42
    give you the opportunity to perform the
  • 00:00:45
    same level of technical analysis so once
  • 00:00:47
    you understand the fundamentals of
  • 00:00:50
    technical analysis and you learn the
  • 00:00:52
    right way to apply it you can use it for
  • 00:00:55
    any Financial instrument I encourage you
  • 00:00:58
    to take some notes and at the end of the
  • 00:00:59
    this episode I'm going to have some
  • 00:01:01
    recommended reading for those of you
  • 00:01:02
    that want to keep going on the journey
  • 00:01:04
    so let's go ahead and jump in on the
  • 00:01:06
    Whiteboard now prior to Candlestick
  • 00:01:08
    charts we had just simple line charts
  • 00:01:10
    the problem with a line chart is that
  • 00:01:12
    the line is created by connecting two
  • 00:01:15
    dots or more these dots are just based
  • 00:01:18
    on one point of data that one point of
  • 00:01:21
    data is typically the closing price and
  • 00:01:24
    while it's important to know the closing
  • 00:01:26
    price that's only one piece of data so
  • 00:01:29
    let's introduce Candlestick charts a
  • 00:01:31
    Candlestick chart gives us four pieces
  • 00:01:33
    of information for each Candlestick it
  • 00:01:37
    tells us the close but it also tells us
  • 00:01:39
    the open the low and the high now here's
  • 00:01:45
    what's really interesting the shape of
  • 00:01:47
    the Candlestick is now communicating a
  • 00:01:50
    message because let's just say for a
  • 00:01:52
    moment let's flip this over let's just
  • 00:01:54
    say for a moment that you pull up a
  • 00:01:56
    Candlestick chart and you see a
  • 00:01:58
    Candlestick that looks like
  • 00:02:01
    this what kind of message does that tell
  • 00:02:03
    you that tells you clearly that the
  • 00:02:06
    price opened High it went straight down
  • 00:02:10
    and it closed at the bottom in contrast
  • 00:02:12
    to these two candlesticks here these two
  • 00:02:15
    candlesticks have a Candlestick body
  • 00:02:19
    which is the middle section that's the
  • 00:02:21
    body of the Candlestick right there and
  • 00:02:23
    they both have an upper candle wick and
  • 00:02:26
    a lower candle wick the upper and the
  • 00:02:28
    lower candle wicks cannect the low and
  • 00:02:30
    the high when you have a Candlestick
  • 00:02:33
    that doesn't have any Wicks it just has
  • 00:02:36
    a body that shows really strong
  • 00:02:39
    sentiment in the market so a red
  • 00:02:42
    Candlestick like that a lot of weakness
  • 00:02:44
    the opposite would be true of a big
  • 00:02:46
    green Candlestick like that and so what
  • 00:02:49
    we've actually learned is that once you
  • 00:02:52
    understand the language of the financial
  • 00:02:53
    markets it's almost like learning to
  • 00:02:56
    read uh traffic signs they become so
  • 00:02:59
    obvious you don't second guess them you
  • 00:03:01
    see a stop sign and you stop so for
  • 00:03:04
    instance when I'm trading and I all of a
  • 00:03:07
    sudden I'm watching something it's going
  • 00:03:10
    up the price is going up and then all of
  • 00:03:11
    a sudden at the top of that move if I
  • 00:03:13
    see this candle right here I know that
  • 00:03:16
    it's about to change directions why is
  • 00:03:18
    that what is this candle communicating
  • 00:03:21
    it opened low right here this was the
  • 00:03:23
    open this was the close this was the
  • 00:03:25
    high so it moved up but the Bears pushed
  • 00:03:29
    it back down and it closed down here
  • 00:03:32
    this candle is called a shooting star
  • 00:03:36
    it's a candle that shows a reversal may
  • 00:03:39
    be coming that's the message this
  • 00:03:41
    candle's communicating and it
  • 00:03:43
    communicates the same message whether
  • 00:03:44
    it's red or green if the price has been
  • 00:03:46
    moving up and we see a shooting star
  • 00:03:48
    that's green reversal likely we see one
  • 00:03:51
    that's red reversal is already started
  • 00:03:54
    the same is true of this candle right
  • 00:03:56
    here now this candle is called hammer it
  • 00:03:59
    it looks sort of like a mallet this is
  • 00:04:01
    the head of the Mallet and this is the
  • 00:04:03
    handle right here and this candle when
  • 00:04:06
    it occurs after the price has been
  • 00:04:09
    declining it's considered to be
  • 00:04:11
    hammering out the base because what has
  • 00:04:15
    happened here is the price
  • 00:04:18
    declined dropped and then who was able
  • 00:04:21
    to push it back up the buyers the buyers
  • 00:04:24
    came in they pushed the price back up
  • 00:04:26
    and so it closed as a small Hammer
  • 00:04:28
    indicating a Poss
  • 00:04:30
    reversal so these candlesticks are
  • 00:04:32
    communicating messages the question
  • 00:04:35
    right now is do you know how to read the
  • 00:04:37
    messages and there are times where we're
  • 00:04:39
    going to get false signals from
  • 00:04:41
    candlesticks for instance if we actually
  • 00:04:44
    saw a chart that looked exactly like
  • 00:04:47
    this I wouldn't think much of it because
  • 00:04:50
    these are all candles of indecision
  • 00:04:52
    right through here but isn't it already
  • 00:04:55
    showing indecisiveness by the fact that
  • 00:04:57
    it's going sideways so the place that I
  • 00:05:00
    really get interested in the shape of a
  • 00:05:02
    candle is when the price is reaching
  • 00:05:07
    really high levels we're getting really
  • 00:05:09
    high extension that's when we're
  • 00:05:11
    starting to worry about possible
  • 00:05:12
    reversal indicators that's where we're
  • 00:05:14
    worried about that hammer candle or the
  • 00:05:17
    shooting star candle or what's called a
  • 00:05:20
    dogee or the gravestone dogee or the
  • 00:05:23
    hanging man dogee that's when those
  • 00:05:26
    candles start to be an indicator of a
  • 00:05:28
    possible reverse coming back down and
  • 00:05:31
    then of course the same would be true
  • 00:05:33
    when it's in when it's flipped in sort
  • 00:05:35
    of mirrored where the price has been
  • 00:05:37
    declining rapidly and then you have that
  • 00:05:40
    hammer at the bottom or you have the
  • 00:05:42
    dogee at the bottom or a hanging man
  • 00:05:45
    dogee or something like that that
  • 00:05:47
    indicates a possible reversal for a move
  • 00:05:50
    back up so there are really two
  • 00:05:52
    strategies when it comes to trading
  • 00:05:54
    there's counter Trend trading and then
  • 00:05:57
    there's Trend trading most beginner
  • 00:05:59
    Traders are Trend Traders because it's
  • 00:06:02
    easier to understand something that's
  • 00:06:04
    already moving and to jump on that
  • 00:06:06
    existing momentum than to try to predict
  • 00:06:08
    a reversal having said that it's very
  • 00:06:11
    important to learn to recognize these
  • 00:06:13
    candles that indicate a reversal of
  • 00:06:16
    trend may be approaching one of the
  • 00:06:19
    things that we're going to start talking
  • 00:06:20
    about here is connecting individual
  • 00:06:23
    candlesticks to form multi Candlestick
  • 00:06:26
    patterns so while we have individual
  • 00:06:28
    candlesticks that can communicate Market
  • 00:06:30
    sentiment when those candlesticks are
  • 00:06:33
    clustered together and form a pattern
  • 00:06:36
    that can create an even stronger signal
  • 00:06:38
    so let me show you for example let's say
  • 00:06:40
    we have three big candles going up like
  • 00:06:43
    this and then we have one candle going P
  • 00:06:46
    uh as a pullback and a second candle as
  • 00:06:48
    a pullback what we're seeing here is
  • 00:06:51
    that the price has moved up quickly now
  • 00:06:53
    it's pulling back a little bit this is
  • 00:06:56
    actually a pattern that we recognize
  • 00:06:58
    very well is being a bull
  • 00:07:01
    flag this green um lineup is considered
  • 00:07:05
    the flag pole this is considered kind of
  • 00:07:08
    like um the actual flag the pennant
  • 00:07:10
    right here that's the the the shape and
  • 00:07:14
    what we look for in this pattern is for
  • 00:07:17
    the price to break to the upside of this
  • 00:07:20
    line here for the first candle to make a
  • 00:07:23
    new high and then we look for the price
  • 00:07:25
    to move back to New highs now to help
  • 00:07:28
    you understand the psych ology of what's
  • 00:07:30
    Happening Here you have a stock or a
  • 00:07:33
    commodity or a Forex pair uh
  • 00:07:36
    cryptocurrency doesn't matter that's
  • 00:07:38
    moved up quickly in price and the trend
  • 00:07:41
    right here for the short term got
  • 00:07:42
    exhausted buyers were no longer willing
  • 00:07:45
    to keep buying it higher and higher and
  • 00:07:46
    higher and higher and maybe some short
  • 00:07:48
    sellers came in or some people who were
  • 00:07:50
    holding it from down here wanted to take
  • 00:07:52
    some profit so we see the decline in
  • 00:07:55
    price a little bit however these are
  • 00:07:57
    three small body red candles they're not
  • 00:08:01
    a huge body red candle they're not
  • 00:08:03
    communicating a massive reversal this is
  • 00:08:06
    just an orderly pullback and so when we
  • 00:08:10
    get this type of formation we look at
  • 00:08:12
    this as a buying opportunity the price
  • 00:08:15
    has really two options it can either
  • 00:08:17
    break this level and continue lower
  • 00:08:20
    right here or it can break to the upside
  • 00:08:23
    and so we we get to a point where it's
  • 00:08:25
    sort of a fork in the road and which way
  • 00:08:28
    is it going to go now I suppose of
  • 00:08:30
    course it could just sort of slow down
  • 00:08:32
    and go sideways in which if it did that
  • 00:08:35
    there's no trade there whatsoever it's
  • 00:08:37
    not going to be something that we buy
  • 00:08:39
    it's not something we would short it's
  • 00:08:40
    just going sideways but generally when
  • 00:08:43
    these have made big moves like this due
  • 00:08:45
    to some type of catalyst they're going
  • 00:08:47
    to be forced to break out in a strong
  • 00:08:49
    way one or the other so in this instance
  • 00:08:51
    the momentary pullback and then here's
  • 00:08:54
    the next wave of momentum now what's
  • 00:08:57
    often common is that then we'll see up
  • 00:08:59
    here a second pullback and this brings
  • 00:09:02
    in another round of buyers as it
  • 00:09:05
    continues even higher and so if we look
  • 00:09:07
    at my screen share here what you'll see
  • 00:09:09
    on the chart is actually um the S&P 500
  • 00:09:13
    and this isn't um any anything
  • 00:09:15
    particularly exciting really but you can
  • 00:09:18
    see how it's trading in these waves of
  • 00:09:21
    price action where we have this uh this
  • 00:09:24
    strong move up this pullback and then it
  • 00:09:28
    breaks to the upside then it pulls back
  • 00:09:31
    again like I was just showing you it
  • 00:09:33
    breaks to the upside it pulls back again
  • 00:09:36
    and it breaks to the upside it pulls
  • 00:09:37
    back again it breaks to the upside and
  • 00:09:40
    so each time it pulls back those become
  • 00:09:43
    buying opportunities so notice uh this
  • 00:09:46
    candle shape right here if you recall
  • 00:09:49
    that is our Hammer candle if we look at
  • 00:09:51
    this candle right here this is a dogee
  • 00:09:55
    which which is the the bottom reversal
  • 00:09:58
    and then this was a doge right here
  • 00:09:59
    which was our top reversal so we're
  • 00:10:02
    seeing very clearly these candlesticks
  • 00:10:04
    that we've already been discussing
  • 00:10:06
    there's the dogee right there where the
  • 00:10:08
    open and the close are basically the
  • 00:10:09
    same and of course we have a couple of
  • 00:10:12
    really nice longbody green candles that
  • 00:10:14
    are forming the bulk of the move up so
  • 00:10:18
    this is just an example of multi
  • 00:10:21
    Candlestick patterns when it comes to
  • 00:10:24
    time frames this it doesn't matter what
  • 00:10:26
    time frame this is this could be a one
  • 00:10:29
    minute chart it could be a f minute
  • 00:10:30
    chart it could be a daily chart what's
  • 00:10:33
    important to understand is that each of
  • 00:10:35
    these candlesticks represents a period
  • 00:10:37
    of time and so if you're an active
  • 00:10:39
    Trader you're going to be more inclined
  • 00:10:41
    to use short time frames like the one
  • 00:10:43
    minute or the five minute chart and if
  • 00:10:45
    you're an investor or a swing Trader and
  • 00:10:46
    you want to hold things for a few days
  • 00:10:48
    you'll probably be looking at hourly
  • 00:10:49
    charts 60-minute charts and daily charts
  • 00:10:53
    to help you find these type of
  • 00:10:55
    opportunities these are the patterns
  • 00:10:57
    that I absolutely love trading so I'll
  • 00:11:01
    switch back to the Whiteboard here and
  • 00:11:03
    I'll show you a couple of uh couple
  • 00:11:05
    other patterns that I like so the first
  • 00:11:07
    pattern that I showed you right here
  • 00:11:10
    this is called the bull
  • 00:11:13
    flag and usually on a bull flag pattern
  • 00:11:17
    we'll see anywhere from one candle of
  • 00:11:20
    pullback to three I don't usually like
  • 00:11:23
    to see four candles of pullback I do not
  • 00:11:25
    like to see the pullback here retrace
  • 00:11:28
    more than 50% of this initial move so
  • 00:11:31
    that means the most it can pull back is
  • 00:11:33
    right about here so an example of a bull
  • 00:11:36
    flag that would be a broken pattern
  • 00:11:38
    would be one that goes like this and
  • 00:11:41
    then has a longbody red candle right
  • 00:11:44
    here that's no good that don't like that
  • 00:11:48
    it's retraced more than 50% of the move
  • 00:11:50
    all right alternatively we if we have 1
  • 00:11:54
    two 3 four five six red cand Les we're
  • 00:12:00
    running out of steam that's not good
  • 00:12:02
    either if this was really strong we
  • 00:12:05
    should have had just a momentary
  • 00:12:07
    pullback before the next round of buyers
  • 00:12:09
    came in and said I want a piece this
  • 00:12:12
    action for the next leg up I like TR to
  • 00:12:15
    trade the first pullback right here the
  • 00:12:18
    first bull flag and I like to trade the
  • 00:12:20
    second one right here I have often found
  • 00:12:23
    that after the first two when you get
  • 00:12:26
    into the third the fourth the fifth
  • 00:12:27
    they're not as clean
  • 00:12:29
    because most traders who are aggressive
  • 00:12:31
    and are successful have already made
  • 00:12:34
    their money on the first two and are not
  • 00:12:35
    going to overstay their welcome it's
  • 00:12:37
    usually the rookie traders that end up
  • 00:12:39
    overstaying their welcome so it's better
  • 00:12:40
    to get in get green and get out okay so
  • 00:12:43
    this is the bull flag that's a pattern
  • 00:12:45
    that I really like it's a multi
  • 00:12:47
    Candlestick pattern that requires two
  • 00:12:50
    well it could even be just one huge
  • 00:12:51
    green candle but requires a nice big
  • 00:12:54
    move up with some longbody candles light
  • 00:12:57
    volume pullback not retrace more than
  • 00:12:59
    50% before moving higher there's another
  • 00:13:02
    technical indicator that I use to help
  • 00:13:04
    me make sure this doesn't pull back too
  • 00:13:06
    much I'll talk about those in just a
  • 00:13:07
    moment all right so this is the bull
  • 00:13:09
    flag another pattern here uh that I'll
  • 00:13:13
    show you is called a Flatt top breakout
  • 00:13:17
    pattern um now this is formed this would
  • 00:13:21
    be a little bit of a gap here if that
  • 00:13:23
    really happened U basically a flat top
  • 00:13:26
    breakout pattern occurs when the price
  • 00:13:28
    is hanging out right underneath the
  • 00:13:32
    highs and what ends up happening is it
  • 00:13:34
    pulls back just a little bit and then it
  • 00:13:36
    goes back up and what we end up sort of
  • 00:13:40
    seeing is that we have this support line
  • 00:13:43
    right here and what ends up happening is
  • 00:13:45
    it pushes the stock through this level
  • 00:13:48
    and when it finally breaks out we
  • 00:13:50
    usually get a nice big longbody green
  • 00:13:53
    candle this is called a Flatt top
  • 00:13:55
    breakout pattern we have a Flatt top
  • 00:13:57
    breakout pattern a pretty close flat top
  • 00:14:00
    breakout pattern um on the S&P uh right
  • 00:14:04
    here it's pretty close to that right
  • 00:14:06
    there this I would say is a pretty good
  • 00:14:09
    example of a classic bull flag two nice
  • 00:14:12
    big green candles two Candles there pull
  • 00:14:14
    back and then making a new high this
  • 00:14:18
    right here is called an ABCD pattern an
  • 00:14:21
    ABCD pattern occurs when the price goes
  • 00:14:26
    up hopefully this just
  • 00:14:29
    kind of Mark this separately price goes
  • 00:14:31
    up we get a little bit of a pullback
  • 00:14:34
    here and then we come back up but it
  • 00:14:38
    fails it doesn't go through the high the
  • 00:14:40
    way it should on a bull flag and it
  • 00:14:42
    pulls back
  • 00:14:43
    again
  • 00:14:45
    now this is okay because this can create
  • 00:14:48
    a really powerful breakout so long as
  • 00:14:51
    when it pulls back here it doesn't break
  • 00:14:54
    below this price here so this becomes an
  • 00:14:58
    ascending support line that has to hold
  • 00:15:01
    it's like a flat top breakout pattern
  • 00:15:04
    but a typical flat top breakout pattern
  • 00:15:06
    all of the price action is within like
  • 00:15:09
    10 15 cents it's like right underneath
  • 00:15:12
    the high before it squeezes up it never
  • 00:15:15
    really pulls back whereas an ABCD
  • 00:15:17
    pattern right here does pull back and
  • 00:15:21
    then is really a failed bull flag that
  • 00:15:23
    pulls back a second time but the second
  • 00:15:26
    pullback is actually an opportunity for
  • 00:15:28
    it to acculate even more buyers so when
  • 00:15:30
    it does break out usually the breakout
  • 00:15:32
    is even stronger so this pattern is just
  • 00:15:36
    fine I really like that one uh I would
  • 00:15:38
    say these are these are three patterns
  • 00:15:40
    that I trade pretty much on a daily
  • 00:15:42
    basis something that's worth mentioning
  • 00:15:44
    is that as an active Trader it's more
  • 00:15:46
    important that you love what you're
  • 00:15:48
    trading than that you're necessarily
  • 00:15:50
    trading the perfect pattern so if you
  • 00:15:53
    love trading a certain stock or you love
  • 00:15:55
    trading Bitcoin whatever it is you want
  • 00:15:57
    to focus on trading that
  • 00:15:59
    and look if an ABCD pattern forms the
  • 00:16:02
    pullback the move up and then it goes
  • 00:16:04
    you trade the ABCD pattern if it's a
  • 00:16:06
    Flatt top breakout pattern you trade the
  • 00:16:08
    Flatt top breakout pattern if it's a
  • 00:16:10
    bull flag you trade the bull flag you
  • 00:16:12
    trade the pattern that is presented the
  • 00:16:14
    most important thing is that you make
  • 00:16:15
    sure you're focusing on the right thing
  • 00:16:18
    to trade you're looking to trade
  • 00:16:19
    something that has liquidity that has
  • 00:16:21
    volume that people are interested in
  • 00:16:24
    because that's where you're going to see
  • 00:16:25
    the volatility as active Traders we
  • 00:16:28
    thrive on volatility we need things to
  • 00:16:31
    be moving look we don't make money if
  • 00:16:33
    we're trading something that's not
  • 00:16:34
    moving in price so we're looking for
  • 00:16:36
    things that are moving and moving
  • 00:16:38
    relatively quickly so now let's talk
  • 00:16:40
    about those technical indicators what
  • 00:16:43
    these do is they help provide more
  • 00:16:45
    context for the current price so this is
  • 00:16:48
    a stock chart and we can see obviously
  • 00:16:50
    the price is going up but what we have
  • 00:16:53
    found is that most stocks most currency
  • 00:16:57
    pairs most Futures Commodities respect
  • 00:17:00
    certain technical indicators one of the
  • 00:17:02
    ones that is very popular is called the
  • 00:17:05
    volum weighted average price I'm going
  • 00:17:07
    to turn that on first so the volume
  • 00:17:09
    weight average price I have down here in
  • 00:17:12
    Orange this tells us the average price
  • 00:17:15
    of the stock over the period of day with
  • 00:17:18
    volume factored in and so this really
  • 00:17:21
    shows us our exact equilibrium point of
  • 00:17:25
    the stock or whatever it happens to be
  • 00:17:27
    that you're Trading this is important
  • 00:17:29
    because if the price is below the
  • 00:17:32
    equilibrium well that's when you've got
  • 00:17:35
    the Bears this is going to be a picture
  • 00:17:36
    of a bear okay he's got like a little
  • 00:17:39
    smirk all right that doesn't look a lot
  • 00:17:42
    like a bear but bear with me so this is
  • 00:17:45
    bearish now if you're above the volume
  • 00:17:47
    weight average price that's when you're
  • 00:17:49
    bullish I'm not even going to try to drw
  • 00:17:51
    ble so that's when we're bullish so
  • 00:17:52
    we're green above we're red below so
  • 00:17:55
    this is really helpful because when we
  • 00:17:57
    look at the chart what we want to see if
  • 00:18:00
    we're thinking about being bullish on
  • 00:18:02
    the position is that the price is above
  • 00:18:04
    the volume weighted average price level
  • 00:18:06
    so you can see how early in the trading
  • 00:18:08
    session this actually dipped below that
  • 00:18:11
    level and then it got back above it so
  • 00:18:15
    just from that perspective the moment it
  • 00:18:17
    was back above it right here from that
  • 00:18:20
    point forward this was in the hands of
  • 00:18:21
    the Bulls now if it had gotten back
  • 00:18:23
    below and held back below the vwap this
  • 00:18:25
    would have been back in the hand of the
  • 00:18:27
    Bears so I'm understanding the the
  • 00:18:29
    general uh who's in control is important
  • 00:18:33
    when you're considering taking a
  • 00:18:34
    position because obviously you're going
  • 00:18:35
    to be choosing long or short so volume
  • 00:18:38
    weight average price super important
  • 00:18:40
    indicator it's used for intraday trading
  • 00:18:43
    now one other thing I want to mention
  • 00:18:44
    about vwap is that it's considered a uh
  • 00:18:47
    very well respected level of support and
  • 00:18:49
    resistance and so what that means is
  • 00:18:51
    that if for instance the stock has been
  • 00:18:54
    um below the vwap and I'll just do black
  • 00:18:57
    here just to make it easy for me
  • 00:18:58
    um and then it comes up to it right here
  • 00:19:01
    it's very common that the price will
  • 00:19:04
    fade off of this level and that this is
  • 00:19:08
    resistance sometimes we'll see a stock
  • 00:19:10
    will will try to break and it won't be
  • 00:19:12
    able to hold over and immediately comes
  • 00:19:15
    back down and when it comes back down
  • 00:19:18
    that is just reaffirming that the Bears
  • 00:19:21
    are in control because it tried to get
  • 00:19:23
    above it but they brought it right back
  • 00:19:25
    down now this is the same as of course
  • 00:19:28
    true if a stock is on uh the upside so
  • 00:19:32
    you know you could have a stock that
  • 00:19:33
    made a really big move it pulled back
  • 00:19:35
    came back down and then at vwap maybe it
  • 00:19:39
    dips for a moment holds that level and
  • 00:19:42
    then heads back up very common this
  • 00:19:45
    would be a dip off of vwap which
  • 00:19:47
    essentially is buying very close to
  • 00:19:49
    support with profit Target back up to
  • 00:19:52
    high this is your risk that's your
  • 00:19:54
    reward so your profit to loss ratio is
  • 00:19:56
    great same with a fade off of vwap you
  • 00:20:00
    know shorting right here with a stop
  • 00:20:02
    just above vwap and then your profit
  • 00:20:04
    targets way down
  • 00:20:05
    here however something that's also
  • 00:20:08
    really interesting with support and
  • 00:20:10
    resistance levels in general and we're
  • 00:20:12
    going to talk about this more in just a
  • 00:20:13
    moment is the way price behaves when we
  • 00:20:18
    do break so when we have a stock that's
  • 00:20:21
    bearish and it's been below vwap so
  • 00:20:23
    maybe it it came up it hit vwap it did a
  • 00:20:26
    fade off vwap came up again faded and
  • 00:20:30
    then came up again and it's like this
  • 00:20:33
    thing it's holding and it busts through
  • 00:20:36
    it gets Above This resistance level so
  • 00:20:40
    sometimes dramatic rejection back down
  • 00:20:43
    all right but let's talk about the other
  • 00:20:45
    situation other situation it breaks it
  • 00:20:48
    comes back down and now the Bulls are
  • 00:20:52
    defending this level and buying off of
  • 00:20:55
    this level because the price VAP it's
  • 00:20:57
    above vwap so what you now have is a
  • 00:21:00
    break of
  • 00:21:02
    resistance a retest to see if it's going
  • 00:21:05
    to hold and if it does then prior
  • 00:21:08
    resistance becomes support and now
  • 00:21:11
    people start buying right here with a
  • 00:21:13
    stop just down here for a move back up
  • 00:21:17
    and this is when we have that uh that
  • 00:21:20
    that sort of trend change of the stock
  • 00:21:23
    being in the hands of the Bears to being
  • 00:21:25
    in the hands of the Bulls you know it's
  • 00:21:28
    different from the trend changes that we
  • 00:21:31
    have when we have a stock that's been
  • 00:21:34
    you know trending up nicely has two
  • 00:21:36
    candles of pullback you know goes higher
  • 00:21:38
    you know in this context this is kind of
  • 00:21:41
    like the tide is coming in this is the
  • 00:21:43
    wave and you know the even when the
  • 00:21:45
    Tide's coming in you have waves so you
  • 00:21:47
    have a wave that comes up it comes down
  • 00:21:48
    a little bit and then the next wave
  • 00:21:50
    comes up a little further then it comes
  • 00:21:52
    down a little bit then comes a little
  • 00:21:53
    bit further when we break over vwap that
  • 00:21:56
    is more like the tide changing from
  • 00:21:59
    going out to now we're we're making a
  • 00:22:02
    much more significant change when we
  • 00:22:04
    break over that volume weighted average
  • 00:22:06
    price so volume weight average price is
  • 00:22:09
    probably the number one most important
  • 00:22:11
    indicator for day trading however more
  • 00:22:15
    important than indicators ultimately are
  • 00:22:17
    the Candlestick patterns Candlestick
  • 00:22:19
    patterns are number one but these
  • 00:22:21
    indicators are really helpful to
  • 00:22:23
    understand context of current price and
  • 00:22:26
    they're important to use because pretty
  • 00:22:28
    much everyone uses them so if you're
  • 00:22:30
    trading without vwap that would be like
  • 00:22:31
    driving around without looking at stop
  • 00:22:33
    signs I mean other people are using them
  • 00:22:35
    and if you're not you're kind of an
  • 00:22:37
    idiot so not to be I mean that's a
  • 00:22:38
    little bit mean but if of course if
  • 00:22:40
    someone really was driving around not
  • 00:22:41
    using stop s signes you you would
  • 00:22:43
    probably say that so uh again my job
  • 00:22:46
    here is to teach you how to use these
  • 00:22:48
    technical indicators so you can apply it
  • 00:22:51
    in your trading this is all about how to
  • 00:22:52
    read stock charts for active trade Okay
  • 00:22:56
    so we've got the vwap what's next next
  • 00:22:58
    indicator that's really important the
  • 00:23:00
    nine exponential moving average it's a
  • 00:23:02
    gray line right here and notice how the
  • 00:23:04
    price keeps coming back to the nine
  • 00:23:06
    moving average the nine moving average
  • 00:23:09
    represents during these flag patterns a
  • 00:23:12
    good place to take that entry so a lot
  • 00:23:15
    of these will stair step up see I'm kind
  • 00:23:17
    of drawing these stairs here and a lot
  • 00:23:20
    of these edges of the step are going to
  • 00:23:22
    come down towards that moving average
  • 00:23:25
    now it kind of flattens out here and
  • 00:23:27
    then it's starts to break away again all
  • 00:23:29
    right so finding entries near this
  • 00:23:32
    moving average is usually a safe place I
  • 00:23:36
    find that if the price breaks the nine
  • 00:23:38
    the next level that we looking at is the
  • 00:23:41
    20 so we've got the nine moving average
  • 00:23:44
    which is our first level of support and
  • 00:23:46
    then we have the 20 so there are a lot
  • 00:23:48
    of times where I'll see the price coming
  • 00:23:50
    down and I'll say I could take a starter
  • 00:23:52
    right here at the nine with my stop loss
  • 00:23:55
    at the 20 now I'm not going to get into
  • 00:23:57
    strategy as much in this particular
  • 00:24:00
    class because this is really focused on
  • 00:24:01
    technical analysis but just for your
  • 00:24:05
    understanding these are very
  • 00:24:07
    well-respected levels of support so you
  • 00:24:09
    could see really this held the nine
  • 00:24:10
    moving average through this whole
  • 00:24:11
    stretch of the day so as long as it
  • 00:24:14
    doesn't stay below it I'm bullish and
  • 00:24:17
    I'm happy to keep holding a position or
  • 00:24:19
    look to add to the position the next
  • 00:24:21
    level is the 200 moving average which is
  • 00:24:23
    going to be much further down in this
  • 00:24:25
    case it's below volume weight average
  • 00:24:27
    price so it's not really relevant for um
  • 00:24:30
    the price right here because I wouldn't
  • 00:24:32
    be a buyer if it was below the two the
  • 00:24:34
    volume weight average price anyways
  • 00:24:36
    anywhere below that is bearish all right
  • 00:24:38
    so those are our indicators all right so
  • 00:24:40
    let's mark this
  • 00:24:44
    out we've got vwap we've got the 9 EMA
  • 00:24:48
    we've got the 20 EMA we've got the 200
  • 00:24:52
    EMA and let's not forget on all of our
  • 00:24:55
    charts we have volume bar so at the
  • 00:24:58
    bottom of the chart down here we have
  • 00:25:00
    the actual volume total which is telling
  • 00:25:03
    us the number of shares that we're
  • 00:25:05
    traded during each one of these
  • 00:25:07
    Candlestick periods and this is
  • 00:25:09
    important because what we look for is
  • 00:25:12
    when we have strong upward momentum like
  • 00:25:15
    we have right here we want to see that
  • 00:25:18
    the volume is picking up so we want to
  • 00:25:20
    see the price is going up but we also
  • 00:25:22
    want to see higher green volume bars
  • 00:25:25
    that are associated with those long body
  • 00:25:27
    candles so this is called the volume
  • 00:25:30
    profile and the volume profile does
  • 00:25:33
    communicate Market sentiment so if we
  • 00:25:35
    had an instance where we were looking at
  • 00:25:38
    let's just say a um a bull flag forming
  • 00:25:42
    and we initially had this nice move up
  • 00:25:45
    right here you know two big green
  • 00:25:48
    candles and then we have a red candle
  • 00:25:50
    and another red candle well let's just
  • 00:25:52
    say that the volume on the green candle
  • 00:25:55
    was like this and like this and then the
  • 00:25:58
    volume on the red candle was like this
  • 00:26:01
    and like this if you have more volume on
  • 00:26:04
    the red candles more selling volume
  • 00:26:06
    that's a factor in this pattern so you
  • 00:26:09
    have to factor this in as part of your
  • 00:26:11
    technical analysis volume bars are an
  • 00:26:13
    important indicator if you have high
  • 00:26:15
    volume during this pullback that
  • 00:26:17
    indicates a lot of people are selling
  • 00:26:19
    into this pullback and it may not hold
  • 00:26:22
    you may not it's unlikely that you're
  • 00:26:24
    going to get a huge move like this on
  • 00:26:27
    light volume
  • 00:26:28
    it's not going to happen on light volume
  • 00:26:29
    bars you need high volume to get those
  • 00:26:32
    kind of moves so the pattern that you
  • 00:26:34
    want to see from a volume profile is
  • 00:26:37
    high volume green candles light volume
  • 00:26:39
    red candles on the pullback and then
  • 00:26:41
    volume coming back in for the next leg
  • 00:26:43
    up and even just looking at the volume
  • 00:26:46
    profile if it was looking like this
  • 00:26:48
    let's just say and then like this what I
  • 00:26:53
    could visualize without even seeing the
  • 00:26:55
    candlesticks is that this is continuing
  • 00:26:58
    to give pullback squeeze up pullback
  • 00:27:01
    squeeze up pullback squeeze up pullback
  • 00:27:05
    this is a volume profile so once again
  • 00:27:07
    you learn this language now you're going
  • 00:27:09
    to be better equipped to capitalize when
  • 00:27:12
    you see this opportunity and to know the
  • 00:27:14
    difference between the time when yep I
  • 00:27:16
    want to be a buyer right there or nope
  • 00:27:19
    we've got high volume selling this is if
  • 00:27:23
    anything a short with a stop at the high
  • 00:27:26
    or it's not a trade at all if I'm not
  • 00:27:28
    interested in going short on this
  • 00:27:29
    position now something that's kind of
  • 00:27:31
    interesting is that what a lot of
  • 00:27:32
    Traders do who are active Traders is we
  • 00:27:34
    look for what's called multi-timeframe
  • 00:27:38
    alignment so what we're looking at here
  • 00:27:41
    on this particular chart this is a five
  • 00:27:43
    minute chart all right it's just a f
  • 00:27:45
    minute chart and these are stock
  • 00:27:47
    scanners I'll close these just for right
  • 00:27:48
    now so let's go ahead and we're going to
  • 00:27:51
    open another chart right here all right
  • 00:27:54
    so I'm going to link this um over here
  • 00:27:56
    to this one it's going to be the
  • 00:27:58
    spy and we're going to make this um
  • 00:28:01
    that's fine we can make it a one minute
  • 00:28:02
    chart that's not a problem all right so
  • 00:28:04
    I'm going to go back here a little bit
  • 00:28:07
    further and what we're going to do is
  • 00:28:09
    we're going to look at let's see so this
  • 00:28:11
    is about
  • 00:28:12
    1240 so 1240 right here
  • 00:28:17
    okay so actually let's look let's look
  • 00:28:20
    at this um setup right here so we're
  • 00:28:23
    going to look right here if you see
  • 00:28:26
    right here this is where had the price
  • 00:28:28
    move up and then we went into this
  • 00:28:29
    period that kind of formed a flat top of
  • 00:28:32
    consolidation before it broke out so
  • 00:28:34
    this is a 5minute pattern this pattern
  • 00:28:37
    is occurring on the F minute chart
  • 00:28:39
    however it's important to take a look at
  • 00:28:41
    what's happening on the one minute chart
  • 00:28:44
    so the one minute chart is showing the
  • 00:28:45
    faster time frame and what we're seeing
  • 00:28:47
    on this chart right here is that the
  • 00:28:51
    price peaked pulled back came up pulled
  • 00:28:55
    back came back up pulled back for moment
  • 00:28:58
    and then it started the breakout and so
  • 00:29:00
    what you essentially have happening in
  • 00:29:02
    this area is this right here is a zoomed
  • 00:29:07
    in version of what's happening right
  • 00:29:09
    here this is these are five minute
  • 00:29:11
    candles which means this is five 10 15
  • 00:29:14
    20 25 minutes this is 25 candles so it's
  • 00:29:18
    showing you the same thing but it's
  • 00:29:20
    showing it in Greater detail now what if
  • 00:29:23
    let's just say for
  • 00:29:25
    instance this candle which is red also
  • 00:29:28
    had extremely high volume it was like a
  • 00:29:31
    super high red volume candle well we
  • 00:29:35
    could interpret that as a warning sign
  • 00:29:38
    and so now we might say well the five
  • 00:29:41
    minute chart looks fine but when we zoom
  • 00:29:44
    in here there's a bit of a caution flag
  • 00:29:46
    out on the one minute chart and as a
  • 00:29:49
    result we do not have one minute time
  • 00:29:52
    frame alignment we like to see
  • 00:29:55
    multi-time Frame Alignment where I could
  • 00:29:57
    look at this on a one minute chart and
  • 00:29:59
    say yes I like this trade and I would
  • 00:30:01
    take it and you look at on a 5 minute
  • 00:30:03
    say yes I like this trade I take it or
  • 00:30:05
    where you say I'm going to switch this
  • 00:30:07
    to a 15minute chart and you look at it
  • 00:30:09
    and say yes I like it I would take that
  • 00:30:11
    trade again so that's called
  • 00:30:14
    multi-timeframe alignment now on an even
  • 00:30:16
    higher level what active Traders will do
  • 00:30:19
    is we'll all go all the way back to our
  • 00:30:21
    daily chart and when we look at our
  • 00:30:23
    daily charts that's where we're looking
  • 00:30:25
    at the big picture that okay this just
  • 00:30:28
    broke above the price um let's see right
  • 00:30:32
    around here so if we've broken above the
  • 00:30:35
    high of that candle and the high from
  • 00:30:37
    just the other day well where's the next
  • 00:30:40
    level of resistance so in order to
  • 00:30:43
    understand support and resistance when
  • 00:30:46
    it comes to technical analysis you have
  • 00:30:48
    to be able to look at all time frames
  • 00:30:51
    one minute 5 minute and daily time
  • 00:30:54
    frames so let me show you um on the
  • 00:30:57
    daily chart the way I look at these type
  • 00:31:01
    of chart patterns so what I do is I grab
  • 00:31:04
    my horizontal trend line and I look to
  • 00:31:08
    the left and up so the first thing I
  • 00:31:11
    would look at here is I would say well
  • 00:31:13
    what was the high of this candle right
  • 00:31:15
    here and the High shows
  • 00:31:18
    13847 so that means when this came up to
  • 00:31:22
    that level it was right around let's see
  • 00:31:26
    um
  • 00:31:28
    it was right around this price here that
  • 00:31:29
    it came up to that 138 level right
  • 00:31:32
    13847 and there was some high volume as
  • 00:31:35
    it broke over that level because as it
  • 00:31:37
    broke that level it was breaking a
  • 00:31:38
    critical resistance level on the daily
  • 00:31:41
    chart the high of the previous day now
  • 00:31:44
    once we understand that 3847 level how
  • 00:31:48
    do I find the next level of resistance
  • 00:31:49
    on the daily chart where's going to have
  • 00:31:51
    resistance next what I do is I look to
  • 00:31:54
    the left right
  • 00:31:56
    here and then I look up and I see oh
  • 00:32:00
    what's the high of that candle the high
  • 00:32:02
    of that candle right there is 444 44
  • 00:32:06
    interesting memorable number so I'll say
  • 00:32:10
    all right that seems like well it's
  • 00:32:12
    certainly the top of this candle right
  • 00:32:14
    here and I would say that this is a
  • 00:32:16
    window on the chart this is a window
  • 00:32:19
    where we really have no resistance
  • 00:32:21
    between
  • 00:32:22
    13847 and
  • 00:32:24
    144 as a result it's very possible that
  • 00:32:27
    we'll see the price continue higher up
  • 00:32:29
    towards that 14444 price if it breaks
  • 00:32:33
    that 14444 price then what do we have
  • 00:32:36
    and again I look to the left and I look
  • 00:32:38
    up and this is how I find the areas that
  • 00:32:41
    I consider possible resistance there's a
  • 00:32:43
    high there of that candle there's a high
  • 00:32:46
    of this candle right here there's a high
  • 00:32:49
    of this candle right here and I look to
  • 00:32:51
    the left and up there's a high of this
  • 00:32:54
    candle right here then I look to the
  • 00:32:56
    left and up and you'll notice something
  • 00:32:58
    interesting here there's a gap so we're
  • 00:33:01
    looking at the S&P 500 here this is not
  • 00:33:03
    a 24-hour market so the gaps are created
  • 00:33:07
    when the market closes something happens
  • 00:33:09
    overnight and then when the market
  • 00:33:11
    starts trading at the next session it
  • 00:33:14
    opens at a different price and this
  • 00:33:16
    happens all the time in fact it
  • 00:33:18
    certainly happens when companies uh
  • 00:33:20
    individual companies have like really
  • 00:33:22
    really good news or really really bad
  • 00:33:23
    news that happens overnight so if you
  • 00:33:25
    look at the Whiteboard um I can kind of
  • 00:33:27
    show you the way this works so let's say
  • 00:33:28
    a stock is trading at $20 a share and
  • 00:33:32
    the market closes so the candle for that
  • 00:33:35
    day you know whatever closed at $20 a
  • 00:33:38
    share then overnight they have earnings
  • 00:33:41
    and they're bad they're really bad so
  • 00:33:43
    now people are like I want to sell this
  • 00:33:44
    stock I want to get out I I don't even
  • 00:33:46
    care about 20 I I'll sell it for 19 and
  • 00:33:49
    you know someone else is like I screw
  • 00:33:51
    that I'll sell it for 18 so now you have
  • 00:33:54
    people that are just trying to get out
  • 00:33:55
    someone's selling at 18 and people that
  • 00:33:57
    were saying I want to buy it initially
  • 00:33:59
    at 20 well they're like I don't want to
  • 00:34:01
    buy it at 20 uh but you know what n
  • 00:34:03
    maybe I'll buy it at 1750 1750 that's
  • 00:34:07
    still that's a discount so maybe I'll
  • 00:34:08
    buy at 1750 so what ends up happening is
  • 00:34:11
    you have the people that saying I'll buy
  • 00:34:13
    oh I'll buy it at 17 I'll buy it at650
  • 00:34:16
    so you have the buyers on one side
  • 00:34:17
    you've got the sellers on the other and
  • 00:34:20
    in order for the stock to start trading
  • 00:34:22
    when the Market opens the buyers and the
  • 00:34:24
    sellers become matched so you you have
  • 00:34:27
    the best highest pric buyer that meets
  • 00:34:30
    up with the lowest price seller
  • 00:34:32
    essentially or or sorry you have the
  • 00:34:33
    highest pric buyer and yeah yeah the
  • 00:34:35
    lowest price seller and they meet up
  • 00:34:36
    right there in the middle and that
  • 00:34:38
    creates the opening price all right so
  • 00:34:41
    when that happens uh the stock opens
  • 00:34:44
    let's just say at
  • 00:34:48
    $17.75 and now it's opening
  • 00:34:50
    significantly lower and so on the daily
  • 00:34:52
    chart it closed to 20 and then the next
  • 00:34:53
    day it opens at 1775 and maybe it's a
  • 00:34:57
    red candle it goes down you know maybe
  • 00:35:00
    it's a green candle it bounces back up a
  • 00:35:01
    little bit whatever but in any case
  • 00:35:03
    what's most important is that we have a
  • 00:35:04
    gap right here that's formed on the
  • 00:35:06
    daily chart and that Gap is a window
  • 00:35:09
    right here essentially it's a gap where
  • 00:35:10
    there's no support or resistance so in
  • 00:35:12
    the future if the stock comes up to that
  • 00:35:14
    level and it breaks over that high now
  • 00:35:16
    there's no resistance until it gets back
  • 00:35:18
    up to $20 a share so these are levels
  • 00:35:21
    that we look at uh very closely on daily
  • 00:35:23
    charts all right so what's formed right
  • 00:35:26
    in this area
  • 00:35:27
    is a
  • 00:35:28
    gap and that was formed because on this
  • 00:35:31
    day right here the price closed but then
  • 00:35:34
    it opened substantially lower and sold
  • 00:35:37
    off and so what ended up happening on
  • 00:35:39
    the chart was we formed a gap and the
  • 00:35:42
    Gap was formed between the low of that
  • 00:35:44
    day and the high of the previous day so
  • 00:35:48
    both gaps and windows are areas where we
  • 00:35:50
    don't really have any support or
  • 00:35:52
    resistance which means once the price
  • 00:35:54
    gets over this level of 252 the next
  • 00:35:57
    stop is 254 or
  • 00:36:00
    25389 all right so once we get over that
  • 00:36:02
    level once again I'm looking to the left
  • 00:36:05
    and up now that there there is another
  • 00:36:07
    element of understanding support and
  • 00:36:09
    resistance on these charts so we could
  • 00:36:12
    go back even further if we need to we
  • 00:36:14
    could go all the way over
  • 00:36:16
    here and we would say all right we've
  • 00:36:18
    only got a couple more levels to draw on
  • 00:36:20
    this before we are at all-time highs
  • 00:36:23
    ever so left and up right there there's
  • 00:36:26
    a small high right there so a teeny bit
  • 00:36:28
    of resistance potentially through that
  • 00:36:31
    level we've got this and then boom we're
  • 00:36:33
    at all-time highs so that draws all of
  • 00:36:36
    those resistance levels however and I
  • 00:36:39
    would do it the same if I was looking at
  • 00:36:41
    something declining in price however
  • 00:36:44
    while we have these resistance levels
  • 00:36:45
    drawn there's something else that we
  • 00:36:47
    haven't factored
  • 00:36:49
    in we need to look at the possibility of
  • 00:36:53
    ascending and descending resistance
  • 00:36:56
    levels so just as I showed on the
  • 00:36:59
    intraday time frame when I was showing
  • 00:37:01
    you how uh these uh flag patterns look
  • 00:37:05
    so right here we have uh ascending
  • 00:37:09
    support so the price comes down holds
  • 00:37:12
    support goes a little higher hold
  • 00:37:13
    support goes a little higher so this
  • 00:37:15
    blue line becomes an ascending support
  • 00:37:18
    level on the daily chart here it's the
  • 00:37:21
    same
  • 00:37:22
    way and these levels make a difference
  • 00:37:25
    when it comes to intraday price action
  • 00:37:28
    so now you see all right we've got this
  • 00:37:30
    level here we could change this color
  • 00:37:32
    here so we've got this yellow
  • 00:37:35
    descending resistance Line This is a
  • 00:37:37
    resistance line it's descending now what
  • 00:37:40
    I'll sometimes do I like to draw and
  • 00:37:42
    create channels so I would connect the
  • 00:37:46
    low of two candles back here for
  • 00:37:48
    instance and I would try to see that
  • 00:37:51
    feels like that might be a good
  • 00:37:53
    connection connecting those two right
  • 00:37:55
    there and then what I often will do is
  • 00:37:58
    I'll copy and paste this trend line so
  • 00:38:01
    it's at the same exact angle which forms
  • 00:38:04
    a channel and then when I bring it up
  • 00:38:07
    here I'll usually line it up like that
  • 00:38:09
    and what we find is that it's very
  • 00:38:12
    common that these will trade uh these
  • 00:38:16
    financial instruments will trade in
  • 00:38:17
    channels so it's true that sometimes
  • 00:38:20
    we'll have um a really strong angle
  • 00:38:23
    where it's a wedge form so when we form
  • 00:38:27
    a pattern like this we've got this wedge
  • 00:38:29
    that's happening right here um but it's
  • 00:38:32
    also common very common that we see uh
  • 00:38:34
    real perfect channels so I had this
  • 00:38:37
    drawn just like this um from a couple
  • 00:38:40
    weeks ago and so when I saw the price
  • 00:38:42
    coming up right here I expected that we
  • 00:38:45
    were going to run into this descending
  • 00:38:47
    resistance level and we kind of
  • 00:38:48
    struggled here for a couple days we got
  • 00:38:50
    above it we came back down we tested it
  • 00:38:53
    we held and now we're back up so
  • 00:38:55
    something that's really important to
  • 00:38:57
    know and you could see it back here as
  • 00:38:59
    well so there's sort of this resistance
  • 00:39:02
    underneath this level right here then it
  • 00:39:04
    broke above it then it's support support
  • 00:39:07
    was below it for a second and then got
  • 00:39:09
    back above it let me show you an example
  • 00:39:12
    uh right here this was a um ascending
  • 00:39:16
    support trend line that I drew by
  • 00:39:18
    connecting right here and right here I
  • 00:39:21
    connected those two lines those two dots
  • 00:39:24
    and it created this long extension
  • 00:39:28
    so I drew that right there at that time
  • 00:39:31
    so when this came back up right here I
  • 00:39:34
    already knew that we have potential
  • 00:39:36
    ascending resistance that it was going
  • 00:39:38
    to run into and it did it ran into it
  • 00:39:40
    here it ran into it here so at the very
  • 00:39:44
    beginning of this class I said most
  • 00:39:45
    Traders don't know how to use technical
  • 00:39:47
    analysis properly which means they may
  • 00:39:49
    not even have drawn this blue line
  • 00:39:51
    whatsoever and they're buying right here
  • 00:39:55
    and i' would say you're buying right
  • 00:39:56
    into resistance it should be no surprise
  • 00:39:58
    if you lose money on that trade right
  • 00:40:00
    this is a stock that had a descending
  • 00:40:03
    resistance line here it got below it it
  • 00:40:06
    struggled to get back above it it was
  • 00:40:07
    able to get back above it and then it
  • 00:40:09
    ran into its ascending resistance line
  • 00:40:11
    here it's very common that levels that
  • 00:40:13
    at one time were support turn into
  • 00:40:16
    resistance on the other side I do like
  • 00:40:19
    to look to see where we have gaps where
  • 00:40:21
    we have Windows and if there's obvious
  • 00:40:23
    levels of ascending or descending
  • 00:40:26
    resistance
  • 00:40:26
    and I do the same thing on an intraday
  • 00:40:28
    basis and what we find like that
  • 00:40:31
    screenshot that I just showed you um is
  • 00:40:33
    that it is very common to see these
  • 00:40:35
    patterns where the price is just it
  • 00:40:39
    tests this level it breaks it and then
  • 00:40:42
    it retests it coming back down so if
  • 00:40:44
    you're not drawing that you could get
  • 00:40:46
    stopped out prematurely right here when
  • 00:40:48
    this is just a retest of Prior
  • 00:40:50
    resistance can that prior resistance
  • 00:40:52
    become support and if it can become
  • 00:40:54
    support then all of a sudden it's game
  • 00:40:57
    time here's another example all right so
  • 00:41:00
    this trend line here is support right
  • 00:41:03
    here it gets below and is
  • 00:41:06
    resistance resistance but it broke
  • 00:41:08
    through it boom big deal that's a big
  • 00:41:10
    deal because we broke through resistance
  • 00:41:13
    a lot of volume came in and shorts
  • 00:41:14
    covered it pulls back and when it pulls
  • 00:41:17
    back where does it pull back to right
  • 00:41:19
    back to that support level boom there
  • 00:41:21
    and there and there I mean this is a
  • 00:41:23
    support level that is showing validity
  • 00:41:26
    over the course of multiple trading
  • 00:41:28
    sessions you know in the S&P we've got
  • 00:41:31
    trend lines that show they hold validity
  • 00:41:33
    over the course of even years so you
  • 00:41:36
    have these levels that are very well
  • 00:41:38
    respected and if you're not seeing them
  • 00:41:41
    because you're just not looking at that
  • 00:41:42
    part of the chart then you you really
  • 00:41:44
    are missing out on something that's very
  • 00:41:46
    significant it's almost like you're
  • 00:41:48
    trading blindfolded I mean you're you're
  • 00:41:51
    missing that much there are times where
  • 00:41:53
    you'll see okay we connected one 2 3
  • 00:41:55
    this is a trend line here that's showing
  • 00:41:57
    in 2023 this connects back to 2020
  • 00:42:00
    that's 3 years ago right so these are
  • 00:42:04
    very significant technical levels so you
  • 00:42:06
    have to be aware now some Traders will
  • 00:42:08
    ask how to draw ascending and descending
  • 00:42:10
    support and resistance levels and my
  • 00:42:13
    rule of thumb is that you want to make
  • 00:42:16
    sure the trend line is touching in the
  • 00:42:19
    most places possible because the fact is
  • 00:42:22
    it it can be a little bit arbitrary you
  • 00:42:24
    know do you connect the the high of
  • 00:42:27
    candles or do you connect the low right
  • 00:42:30
    here should I connect this trend line to
  • 00:42:33
    the top of that candle wick right there
  • 00:42:36
    the very top because see how if we zoom
  • 00:42:38
    in on this there's a candle wick at the
  • 00:42:40
    very top do we connect that to the
  • 00:42:42
    candle wick or do we connect it to the
  • 00:42:44
    candle body because obviously it's going
  • 00:42:46
    to change you know if we connect to the
  • 00:42:49
    body it draws it pull pulls it down if
  • 00:42:51
    we connect to the top it's up there so
  • 00:42:54
    my rule of thumb is that I'll I'll sort
  • 00:42:57
    of connect the line and then I'll move
  • 00:42:59
    it around and see which one feels more
  • 00:43:02
    valid the more times a ascending or
  • 00:43:06
    descending resistance support line is
  • 00:43:07
    tested the more validity it gains so
  • 00:43:11
    while you might initially have drawn it
  • 00:43:14
    this way and then it's not really
  • 00:43:17
    respected you realize oh if I adjust it
  • 00:43:19
    there actually that does seem to be what
  • 00:43:22
    probably most the most uh people have on
  • 00:43:24
    their charts so that's how I should keep
  • 00:43:26
    it in other words it should be fairly
  • 00:43:29
    obvious so down here connecting this and
  • 00:43:32
    this area you know that that does kind
  • 00:43:35
    of look fairly accurate you've got to
  • 00:43:37
    dot a connection there connection here
  • 00:43:40
    approximately through here it is okay if
  • 00:43:43
    um we do break through some candle wicks
  • 00:43:46
    because what can happen is the stock on
  • 00:43:48
    a particular day might have a candle
  • 00:43:50
    wick that tests this daily level and it
  • 00:43:53
    tries to break through it and then it
  • 00:43:55
    gets back above it it tries to get above
  • 00:43:57
    it it get and then it goes back below it
  • 00:43:59
    so if we switch this to let's say the
  • 00:44:02
    15minute
  • 00:44:03
    chart we're able to actually see that
  • 00:44:06
    daily trend line and like right in this
  • 00:44:09
    area for instance look at how the
  • 00:44:11
    intraday price action how much it's
  • 00:44:14
    driven by this daily level right so it
  • 00:44:18
    tries to get above it and then slams
  • 00:44:20
    back down it tries to get above it slams
  • 00:44:23
    back down it gets above it and then
  • 00:44:24
    sells off hard it comes back up to that
  • 00:44:27
    level tries again and it's not able to
  • 00:44:29
    hold so it's like you can tell this is a
  • 00:44:31
    very well-respected
  • 00:44:33
    level breaks below it try gets back
  • 00:44:36
    above break back
  • 00:44:38
    below right in here this is where we saw
  • 00:44:42
    that um consolidation around I think it
  • 00:44:45
    was um on the F minute chart we were
  • 00:44:48
    looking at that consolidation there that
  • 00:44:50
    was just above that level so you could
  • 00:44:53
    tell that these are significant uh
  • 00:44:56
    levels where we have support and
  • 00:44:57
    resistance so now let's step back from
  • 00:44:59
    the technical analysis for a moment and
  • 00:45:01
    just talk about strategy so when it
  • 00:45:03
    comes to strategy high level how are we
  • 00:45:06
    using and incorporating this technical
  • 00:45:08
    analysis into the decision-making
  • 00:45:10
    process so this is the way I do it what
  • 00:45:13
    I'm going to share with you right now is
  • 00:45:14
    based on over 24,000 trades I've taken
  • 00:45:18
    so I have a lot of metrics that back up
  • 00:45:20
    the choices I make when it comes to the
  • 00:45:23
    price of stocks I trade why I choose
  • 00:45:25
    stocks and instead of Forex you can
  • 00:45:27
    apply technical analysis generally
  • 00:45:29
    speaking to any Financial instrument
  • 00:45:31
    because the Candlestick charts and doing
  • 00:45:33
    this type of analysis is valid as long
  • 00:45:35
    as you've got the chart okay but for me
  • 00:45:39
    what I do each day my number one goal is
  • 00:45:42
    to try to find an instrument that is
  • 00:45:44
    moving quickly and that's going to be
  • 00:45:46
    the vehicle that I'm going to trade so
  • 00:45:47
    if you're trading cryptocurrencies
  • 00:45:49
    you're looking for a currency that's
  • 00:45:50
    moving quickly right so for stocks I'm
  • 00:45:53
    looking for a stock that's moving
  • 00:45:54
    quickly for futures you're looking for a
  • 00:45:56
    commodity that's moving quickly
  • 00:45:58
    typically that happens because there is
  • 00:46:00
    some type of underlying Catalyst that's
  • 00:46:03
    driving the move some type of news it
  • 00:46:05
    could be Global News it could be
  • 00:46:07
    specific to that instrument but there's
  • 00:46:09
    some type of news and what that
  • 00:46:11
    effectively does is it brings a lot of
  • 00:46:13
    volume into that Financial instrument
  • 00:46:16
    when you have volume high volume you've
  • 00:46:18
    got a lot of retail traders that are
  • 00:46:20
    participating in the move we see that
  • 00:46:22
    high relative volume that's where we're
  • 00:46:24
    going to see more volatility that's when
  • 00:46:26
    we're going to see those bigger green
  • 00:46:27
    candles those bigger red candles when
  • 00:46:29
    it's bad news this is the volatility
  • 00:46:32
    that as active Traders we thrive on this
  • 00:46:35
    is what we need we need to see things
  • 00:46:37
    that are moving so my first order of
  • 00:46:39
    business is not to search the news every
  • 00:46:42
    single morning my first order of
  • 00:46:44
    business is I sit down I open up my
  • 00:46:46
    platform here and I'm pulling up my
  • 00:46:48
    scanners to try to figure out you know
  • 00:46:51
    what what's actually moving today what
  • 00:46:52
    are our top gainers uh this morning so
  • 00:46:54
    I'm looking at my top gapper scanner and
  • 00:46:57
    I'm looking at my top Gainer scanner and
  • 00:46:59
    this is showing me the the Securities in
  • 00:47:01
    the stock market that are moving the
  • 00:47:03
    most today so 89%
  • 00:47:06
    87% and then from there I'm pulling up
  • 00:47:09
    the charts and I'm doing my due
  • 00:47:11
    diligence so for me it begins with
  • 00:47:13
    looking at the scanners and then that's
  • 00:47:15
    how I find what's moving once I found
  • 00:47:19
    something that's moving that's when I
  • 00:47:21
    get into the charts and so one of the
  • 00:47:23
    first things that I look at is I is the
  • 00:47:25
    daily chart I want to look big picture
  • 00:47:27
    what's the daily chart on this and you
  • 00:47:29
    know I say daily chart actually let me
  • 00:47:31
    correct that I would say the first thing
  • 00:47:33
    the very first thing I look at when I
  • 00:47:34
    see a stock that's on my scanners the
  • 00:47:37
    first thing I look at is some of the
  • 00:47:38
    data points I check the float how much
  • 00:47:41
    it's up on the day how many shares of
  • 00:47:43
    volume it has uh the relative volume and
  • 00:47:46
    then I check the news then I open up the
  • 00:47:48
    chart and I look at the chart and
  • 00:47:50
    actually the first chart I look at is
  • 00:47:52
    our intraday chart because sometimes I
  • 00:47:54
    look at the intraday chart and you'll
  • 00:47:55
    see that the price popped up and is
  • 00:47:58
    already down a lot the price may be up
  • 00:48:01
    25% versus yesterday but it was up 50%
  • 00:48:04
    and now it's down a lot from the high
  • 00:48:06
    and so I would say no that chart's
  • 00:48:08
    broken if I pull up that one minute or
  • 00:48:10
    the five minute chart and I like what
  • 00:48:13
    I'm looking at so far the we've got some
  • 00:48:16
    nice longbody green candles we've got
  • 00:48:18
    some good-look price action we're above
  • 00:48:21
    volume weighted average price volume
  • 00:48:23
    profile looks good that's when I open up
  • 00:48:26
    the daily chart then I check on the
  • 00:48:27
    daily chart and what am I looking for
  • 00:48:29
    I'm looking to see if we have any gaps
  • 00:48:32
    if we have any windows and one thing
  • 00:48:34
    that I look at on the daily chart which
  • 00:48:35
    I'll show you here I want to see whether
  • 00:48:37
    or not on the daily chart the price is
  • 00:48:40
    above or below the 200 moving average so
  • 00:48:43
    the 200 moving average is a very
  • 00:48:45
    well-respected indicator on the daily
  • 00:48:48
    chart okay so that purple line is my 200
  • 00:48:51
    moving average and what you'll see on
  • 00:48:54
    this uh stock is that it's well below
  • 00:48:57
    the 200 it's been below the 200 for a
  • 00:48:59
    long time now the S&P uh has struggled
  • 00:49:01
    around the 200 a little bit uh in the
  • 00:49:03
    past couple of years because we've had
  • 00:49:05
    this uh pullback we've kind of come back
  • 00:49:07
    up so there was a little bit of a
  • 00:49:09
    struggle we we were above it for a long
  • 00:49:12
    long time and we did pull back below it
  • 00:49:16
    in 2020 during that big drop we got back
  • 00:49:19
    above it and then really any dip off the
  • 00:49:21
    200 was it's almost like the vwap on a
  • 00:49:25
    day level if it's above it it's bullish
  • 00:49:27
    if it's below it it's weak but with the
  • 00:49:30
    S&P it doesn't stay below it for long
  • 00:49:32
    now with individual stocks like Ino or
  • 00:49:35
    this other one let's see which one was
  • 00:49:37
    it um M AI these ones are stocks have
  • 00:49:42
    been beaten up for a long time what we
  • 00:49:44
    know about these types of stocks is that
  • 00:49:46
    when they come out with news they can
  • 00:49:48
    have big days we could see something
  • 00:49:49
    like this that goes from 68 cents to $2
  • 00:49:52
    a share in one day we had one last month
  • 00:49:56
    it went from about 30 cents a share to
  • 00:49:58
    $11 in one day on an FDA announcement so
  • 00:50:03
    these beaten up uh Securities can be
  • 00:50:05
    great for bounces off the low but the
  • 00:50:07
    first level that I look at as resistance
  • 00:50:10
    is that 200 moving average and so that's
  • 00:50:12
    the first thing I'm looking I'm saying
  • 00:50:14
    okay we've got this technical level on
  • 00:50:16
    The Daily it's at $2 so is there room
  • 00:50:19
    between the current price and this
  • 00:50:20
    resistance to take a trade and if the
  • 00:50:22
    answer is yes and I'm happy to trade it
  • 00:50:24
    if it's above it then I'm also happy to
  • 00:50:26
    trade it but if we're right below it I'm
  • 00:50:30
    not likely to trade because I know we're
  • 00:50:32
    going to have resistance at that price
  • 00:50:34
    it's just not really worth taking uh an
  • 00:50:36
    entry that close to that critical
  • 00:50:38
    resistance level now as it turned out um
  • 00:50:41
    there were a number of uh Securities
  • 00:50:43
    that were on the scans on um just the
  • 00:50:47
    last trading day that were lower priced
  • 00:50:49
    and a lot of these lower priced names
  • 00:50:51
    are going to be well below uh that 200
  • 00:50:53
    uh moving average let's see
  • 00:50:56
    this one is a little higher priced this
  • 00:50:58
    one you can see was below that 200 quite
  • 00:51:01
    a bit as well quite a bit below it got
  • 00:51:03
    above it and then dropped back below it
  • 00:51:05
    so now if it comes back up resistance
  • 00:51:09
    yeah going to be around $28 a share now
  • 00:51:12
    we can also draw descending resistance
  • 00:51:14
    lines and things like that but at this
  • 00:51:17
    point a descending resistance line from
  • 00:51:18
    up there well not going to have to worry
  • 00:51:21
    about that because we have this issue in
  • 00:51:22
    the way first and below from this area
  • 00:51:27
    we could say there's probably something
  • 00:51:29
    right here but that's not really valid
  • 00:51:34
    so we don't really
  • 00:51:37
    have maybe there was something in that
  • 00:51:39
    area right there you can sort of see how
  • 00:51:43
    these candles connect so you know
  • 00:51:46
    sometimes I'll connect these and then
  • 00:51:49
    I'll pull up the intraday chart and I'll
  • 00:51:51
    just sort of ask myself does it feel
  • 00:51:53
    like this is um being respected does it
  • 00:51:56
    seem like this is a valid line that
  • 00:51:58
    other people are noticing as well so
  • 00:52:00
    what we could actually do here is switch
  • 00:52:02
    this to a five minute time frame and
  • 00:52:06
    take a look and see how did the price
  • 00:52:08
    behave around that resistance level that
  • 00:52:11
    possible resistance level support
  • 00:52:13
    resistance so it opened far above it
  • 00:52:15
    came back down to it bounced off below
  • 00:52:18
    it above it below it above it I don't
  • 00:52:22
    know it kind of cuts right through there
  • 00:52:26
    um it seems like it does respect it
  • 00:52:28
    maybe right there but then it gets under
  • 00:52:29
    it here so I don't know if that was a
  • 00:52:31
    super valid line uh but may maybe maybe
  • 00:52:35
    one that would have been worth keeping
  • 00:52:36
    an eye on in the future so as I said at
  • 00:52:39
    the beginning of this class I have some
  • 00:52:40
    recommended reading for those you guys
  • 00:52:43
    that want to keep learning there's a lot
  • 00:52:45
    to cover when it comes to technical
  • 00:52:46
    analysis one of the books that I enjoyed
  • 00:52:49
    when I was getting started and and
  • 00:52:51
    really trying to better understand
  • 00:52:52
    technical analysis myself was this book
  • 00:52:54
    by Steve niss which is um it's called a
  • 00:52:57
    Candlestick course what I do like about
  • 00:53:00
    it is um just that it gives you a real
  • 00:53:03
    breakdown of these candlesticks and
  • 00:53:06
    their formations in more detail and so
  • 00:53:08
    you can see you know I marked it up when
  • 00:53:09
    I was going through it the hanging man
  • 00:53:11
    the tweezer top you know for us as
  • 00:53:15
    active Traders we really want to be
  • 00:53:17
    experts on candlesticks so you know of
  • 00:53:20
    course I teach classes that go
  • 00:53:22
    extensively into this kind of depth as
  • 00:53:24
    well but for those of you guys watching
  • 00:53:26
    here on YouTube that want to just keep
  • 00:53:27
    learning as much as you can I would
  • 00:53:29
    check out this book this is a great one
  • 00:53:31
    let's see Shameless plug here for my
  • 00:53:33
    book how to day trade the plain truth
  • 00:53:35
    you could check that out um intelligent
  • 00:53:37
    investor this one I I would say this is
  • 00:53:41
    another good one uh trade mindfully for
  • 00:53:43
    those of you guys who have gotten
  • 00:53:44
    yourselves into a pickle at one point or
  • 00:53:47
    another getting emotionally impulsive
  • 00:53:49
    while you're trading trade mindfully is
  • 00:53:51
    a good approach for helping you find
  • 00:53:53
    coping strategies to stay FOC focused
  • 00:53:55
    while you're trading and to not allow
  • 00:53:57
    emotions to overtake your trading
  • 00:53:58
    because one of the things that we know
  • 00:54:00
    for a lot of Traders is that you
  • 00:54:02
    understand all the concepts you
  • 00:54:03
    understand technical analysis you
  • 00:54:05
    understand how to find strong stocks of
  • 00:54:07
    trade you know how to get in how to get
  • 00:54:08
    out mechanically you know how to do all
  • 00:54:11
    these things but In the Heat of the
  • 00:54:12
    Moment you screw it up and that's a lot
  • 00:54:14
    of times because emotions are taking
  • 00:54:17
    over and when you're trading from fear
  • 00:54:19
    from greed from fomo that's that's not
  • 00:54:23
    the calm cool colle Ed part of your
  • 00:54:26
    brain that's not the analytical part of
  • 00:54:27
    your brain That's The Reptilian part of
  • 00:54:29
    your brain that just like is craving and
  • 00:54:32
    alleviating emotion that's not where our
  • 00:54:35
    best trading comes out so learning to
  • 00:54:38
    recognize that is super important this
  • 00:54:40
    is a book that um was written quite a
  • 00:54:42
    while ago but um but is valuable I think
  • 00:54:45

  • 00:54:51
