Live questions from Members
  1. Last year, you said 2022 was the most difficult period for breakout trading of the last six years. Many breakout traders implement "sit out" periods where they stop trading in adverse market environments. Others use Progressive Exposure to size up or size down based on how well breakouts are performing. Do you use either of these tactics? 46:42
  2. On type 3 breakouts, are you getting stopped out and then reentering? 48:19
  3. It seems like some of your setups are based on the profit target and where your stop or pattern negation level are placed, that your risk-reward ratio is less than 1. Can you clarify some of those charts and if you're taking these trades or if you're charting what you see on the chart? 49:02
  4. Do you use a trailing stop once price action has moved toward your price target favorably to avoid a loss on something that has moved so much in the favorable direction 50:04
  5. Where are you placing your stops on the chart patterns you use? Like Head and shoulders, rectangles, Cup and handles, triangles, etc? 50:50
  6. What are your thoughts on the current formation of the Gold futures chart? I see a confirmed double top on the daily, but the pattern is small. Would you think it's too small of a pattern to trade? Thoughts on the position of gold's price? 51:52

REVIEW

The benchmark for the Global equity markets performance, the iShares MSCI All Country World Index ETF (ACWI.O) is preparing for its seventh test of the strong horizontal resistance at 93.3 levels. After the 4th test of the strong horizontal resistance at 93.3 levels price pulled back to the 200-day average and started consolidating above it. Latest consolidation can be the handle of a 3 month-long cup & handle continuation chart pattern that can increase the bullish conviction of the larger scale H&S bottom chart pattern. Breakout above 93.3 levels will be very positive for Global equities. The short-term range is between the 200-day average and the horizontal resistance at 93.3 levels. Cup with handle price target stands at 101 and the larger scale H&S bottom reversal price target is at 109 levels. Consolidation right below the resistance is usually a good sign for a pending breakout.
