VSA – High Volume Spikes


Hi Everybody

I just wanted to remind you that MTPredictor is not just automatic setups based on the TS1,2,3 and 4 routines. For those of you who study the Trading Course will know that we teach other setups, for example a very nice High Volume Spike (VSA) setup that when combined with a reversal at DP support or resistance can highlight very nice trades for you.

A great example has just unfolded on the 3min DAX, as you can see this nailed the high perfectly, before a sharp fall right into the lower DP support zone where +3.9R Profit was available (ignoring slippage and commission).

As you can see, for the experienced and Advanced Trader, MTPredictor has to tools to identify some very nice tradable opportunities.......

Thanks, Steve

Elliott Wave - my Isolation Approach


Hi Everybody,

In my Advanced Customer Training webinar tomorrow I will be talking about some of the other Elliott Wave patterns we look at in MTPredictor. In particular the Wave 5. Please remember that the way I do Elliott wave (my unique isolation approach) is unique and different to the more traditional Elliott Wave analysis as taught by the standard books. So I will take a look at the difference and why I developed and use Elliott Wave in the way that I do.

A good example has recently unfolded on a UK share – BP, where the Wave 5 high unfolded right at the Typical Wave 5 WPT, which was followed by a decline into the DP from the prior wave 4. Which is exactly as taught in the MTPredictor Trading Course

Thanks

ES – 3min DP


Hi Everybody,

The US e-minis started well yesterday with a nice DP buy shortly after the open on the 3min ES. This nailed the low of the day for you. The ES then rallied nicely. As the STF strength band was exceed we swap to the ATRStop for trade management. This held the long trade for a nice +4R Profit (ignoring slippage and commission).

After that, the markets went flat so the rest of the day was tricky and hard work. But we all know by know that markets can do this, so we should not worry about tricky times as we know they will usually not last long before some good trades come round again.

Thanks

French CAC40 – TS3 long, the result


Hi Everybody,

Here is the result of that TS3 long trade – a nice +8R Profit (ignoring slippage and commission).

This was managed using the standard guidelines of switching to the ATRStop once the STF strength band had been exceeded

Thanks

Steve

PS, just after this long trade was stopped out, we got another TS3 buy, that result in +4.9R Profit, so it has been a very good day on the CAC today :-)

French CAC40 – TS3 long


Hi Everybody,

One for the European traders here...............

Earlier this morning the CAC40 (French Stock market) gave a TS3 buy set-up. But what I also liked about this was that this was also on one of our high volume spike’s (VSA). This gave added weight to the trade.

So let’s see how this unfolds......

Thanks

FOREX – GBP 60min Chart


But this comes on the back of a nice TS4 buy we had a while ago. As you can see this made a nice profit of approx. +3.9R (ignoring slippage and commission) as profit was taken at the latest TS4 sell setup

Thanks

FOREX – GBP 60min Chart


Hi Everybody,

I was asked a question on a GBPUSD 60min chart and what to do when there is no clear trend on the larger degree chart (240 and 480 min in this case) ?

Well, when the larger degree chart is either flat (as in this case) or the trend is not clear you can play both sides of the market, but be a little more cautious. In other words look to bring your protective stop closer to the market quicker than normal. This usually means the 100% initial risk level.

In this case, the3 latest TS4 sell would have been stopped out for break-even.

Thanks

Steve
