Trend (breakout in either direction)

Breakout, channel, trading range

Inertia and 80% rule

Trend…

80% reversal attempts fail

Trading range…

80% breakout attempts fail

Markets tend to continue what they have been doing

Trend reversals fail…become bear flags

Trading range breakouts fail

Why need to know where in cycle?

Each part of cycle has trading opportunities

If know where market is in cycle…

Can take trades that are right for current market

Example: bull trend

You must buy!!

Many ways to buy

Once you think bull trend is likely underway…

Looks strong so don’t wait…buy now!

Bull bar after BO = higher probability of trend

Another BO = probable trend

Buy at market as soon as bar closes

Strong bull = buy any new bull close

Buy bear closes: reversals will fail

Buy PB: buy above prior bar

Buy below bars

Pullback = no longer breakout phase

As soon as pullback…

Breakout phase has ended

Channel phase has begun

Later, evolves into trading range

Pullback = channel phase Evolves into trading range

Perfect trades cannot exist

No firm would take a trade where there is

• Low probability of making only a

• Small reward while exposed to a

• Large risk

Cannot exist because an institution has to take other side

Perfect trades cannot exist

This would…

Create huge trend bar

Greatly increase risk

Reduce remaining reward and probability

Possible climactic end of move

Any trade approaching perfection would be quickly traded by many institutions

Trading is always difficult

No one will give you money

Your edge is always small

Goal = consistently good

Don’t have to be perfect

40 - 60 rule

90% of time, probability is 40 - 60%

Of moving X units in one direction before

X units in opposite direction

Applies to 90% of time = channel or trading range

(other 10% of bars = breakout)

90% of time, probability is unclear, setups don’t look strong

Turn uncertainty into profit

Simply always go for reward at least twice risk

Compensates for low probability

Results in positive trader’s equation

Profitable strategy

Bulls and bears can both win!

90% of time…

Between 40 – 60% chance of profitable trade

You will lose 40 – 60% of the time, even with great setups

There is valid bull and bear case at every moment
