This week is all about the tools of trading. Patterns to recognize. Indicators to read. Strengths, Limitations, and outright Weaknesses of each trading tool we rely upon to uncover the type of trading signals we are searching for.
Reading Formations on Charts
As you gain success and start making profits with your trading, it is going to change the way you think and feel about money! Every dollar that comes into your hand will have the potential to remain and to become your worker! Rather than you working for all the money coming in – put your money to work to earn the money you need. Then you can spend your time doing things that you love… helping other people.
I’m going to share exactly how I am trading the markets – you’ll see each of the chart patterns that are the basis of my trading methods.
Each of my methods of trading do not work all the time – each is biased to wait for very specific market conditions. Trading the wrong strategy for the current market conditions will certainly pile up a string of losses.

We will learn about moving averages, and how they can help reduce the number of fakeout breakout false entry signals that often occur.
A trending market will often have a consolidation in prices that appears to be a 1-2-3 reversal patterns – only to find the 1-2-3 bottom is broken and trend continues.
We will review indicators like the Relative Strength Index and the On Balance Volume Oscillator that can provide early warning about the strength of potential bottom formations and top formations before prices break critical trend lines of moving average crossovers.
I’m going to share three main areas of study that may help you in some steps along your path to becoming a successful trader of cryptos and other asset classes.
We will study:
1. technical analysis of the price charts,
2. the process of doing fundamental analysis – and then
3. how inter-market comparisons can help us find the correct timing for a trade.
Formations in the charts and how greed and fear play into it.
I’m going to draw out each of these patterns as an example, and explain different approaches to trade through the life cycle of a classic bull-bear trading pattern.
