MyTrader's Ed:

How Do You Trade The Trend

noreply@blogger.com (Nigel) — Sat, 12 Oct 2013 12:51:00 +0000

In the last post, I've embedded a YouTube video presented by Dr. Barry Burns on how to identify the trend using a simple moving average. But the age old question always arises, and that is, how do you trade with the trend now that you know what it is? It usually becomes a problem for novice traders to trend trade and be consistently profitable especially when using indicators. But I dare to say that it is possible.

One of the most important aspects of trend trading is timing provided that other factors (adequately funded, time of day, instrument, risk management, plan, etc...) are taken care of.

Timing is everything when trying to trade with the trend. You want to position yourself in the trend with a high probability that the trade will go in your favor. The two resources below reveal two different methods on timing your entry in a trend using indicators.

RESOURCES
1. On Tradekingdom.com archived webinar section, we find a recorded webinar, by Dr. Barry Burns, entitled "Timing Your Entries and Exits with Swiss Clock Precision". In this webinar, Dr. Barry Burns explains what to look for, by way of indicators, to determine if you have a high probability trend trade setup. I very much like his technique and is probably the best way to use indicators. http://traderkingdom.com/market-analysis-archived-webinars/1827-timing-your-entries-and-exits-with-swiss-clock-precision

2. This archived webinar entitled "Capture reversal points with the use of indicators and oscillators" is found on Fxstreet.com. Sam Seiden, is most famous for trading supply and demand zones with charts without indicators. So, we really appreciate that he graced us with his insights as to how to properly use indicators. Compare his method to Dr. Barry Burns. Enjoy! http://www.fxstreet.com/webinars/sessions/session.aspx?id=57c373f0-1ae0-41ba-9ae2-ac1e2b425b41

Identify The Trend

noreply@blogger.com (Nigel) — Mon, 02 Sep 2013 14:04:00 +0000

In my post on April 16, 2008 I've wrote about "the trend is your friend" and how one would draw trend lines to help identify the trend.

But there are other ways to determine the trend. In this 10 min video, Dr. Barry Burns, of TopDogTrading.com, explains how using a simple moving average can help give you an idea of what the prevailing trend is. Enjoy!

What does a successful trader do that an unsuccessful trader can't seem to master? They quickly find and get in and out of the winning trades with expert precision. What does this better than anyone else? Smart money of course!

Big banks and financial institutions have the capital and agility to persuade large and medium cap stocks to move in a preferred direction. It may sound like they have the upper hand, but individual traders can join them in a move and profit from the ride.

Finding where the smart money is can be similar to a shell game, so how can you find where the smart money is going to strike next? The answer is simple: You find the top trending stocks! Strong trending stocks have major volume, a clear direction, and lots of liquidity - A.K.A where the smart money is. Wouldn't it be nice to find a list of current strong trending stocks?

Now you can...for FREE! Simply click here.

MarketClub.com has been in the business of trend following for decades, and they are happy to announce that you can take a look at Today's Top 50 Trending Stocks now...for free! This dynamic report will compile a daily list of market movers that can make a difference in your portfolio for 2012.

It costs you nothing, and it could be the game changer you have been looking for.

Noticeable Difference Between TF and ES E-mini

noreply@blogger.com (Nigel) — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 14:59:00 +0000

We are often taught and told to trade high volume, liquid markets. The reason is that the probability of your orders being filled at or close to your entry prices are high and most important you will be able to get out of the market when need to. One such liquid market, that is very popular, is the S&P 500 e-mini (ES). But I dare to say that it is not the best instrument to trade and make money. Not all liquid markets are good for trading especially if you are a beginner and have the mind set that you must trend trade. There are better markets, like the Russell 2000 e-mini (TF on my platform), to trade. The ES seems to be more suitable for scalping or ranging strategies because it doesn't move much and ranges most of the time. The big guys definately make money with the ES on the small movements. See the charts below. For the same space of time ( from 9:30 am - 10:00 am ) I can do better with the TF than with the ES using a simple trend following strategy.

Trading Simulator (Free)

noreply@blogger.com (Nigel) — Sat, 18 Sep 2010 15:50:00 +0000

No software to install. It's all through the website, www.tradingsim.com and best of all it is free. I don't how good it is though for I've recently signed up but the good thing is that you don't have to have your own software running, through the day, recording data to run in the simulator - like Ninjatrader and the likes.

I hope this helps someone.

Cheers

EURUSD Market Club score is now +60 which means very weak uptrend.

NDX (Nasdaq 100 Index) Update

noreply@blogger.com (Nigel) — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 22:06:00 +0000

Market Clubs score for the Nasdaq 100 Index has dropped as low as -100 since my last update and is now resting at -55. It has not been a good idea to go long using trending strategies. Anyway, this is my last update on the NDX. However, I will follow Market Club's rating on the EURUSD since I do trade this market. Currently the score on the EURUSD is -55.

Prosperous trading till next time..

Scan for Chart Patterns

noreply@blogger.com (Nigel) — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 18:22:00 +0000

Here is a site I came across a year or two back called thegreedytrader.com. This site provides weekly technical analysis information on the stock market by way of scans, alerts and picks. They have a section called "Green List" or "Red List" which brings you to a page that lists stocks, based on certain criteria including trend patterns, for daily to yearly periods. If you see a stock on the list that you like you can click the plus sign to add it to your watch list. Also, you can download an excel sheet of the list. Under the Analysis menu, you can also do a "TA Search" in their "Advanced Technical Analysis Stock Market Screener". What is worth noting is that you can search for chart and candlestick patterns.
Now, of course you have to be a subscriber to take advantage of these services. They have a free subscription and a premium subscription. You have access to alerts and picks with the premium subscription. Again, the site is updated weekly basis not daily.

I am not a subscriber but maybe the site might help out someone. If you've learnt about chart patterns, compare that knowledge to what is presented and see for yourself if it line up. And compare the patterns with patterns from other sources for the same stock. You will increase your understanding of patterns even more.

I hope this helps. Happy Trading

Patterns Discovered in the Nasdaq

noreply@blogger.com (Nigel) — Sat, 14 Aug 2010 19:43:00 +0000

Adam Hewison of MarketClub discovered a pattern in the NASDAQ that if it repeats "then it certainly is going to be a rough third and fourth-quarter for most investors." See video below.

UPDATE: Nasdaq 100 Index is now down to a MarketClub score of -65. This indicates a downtrend is in place.
