Candle Sticks Patterns +Cannon Pro FX Trader + Futures Trading Levels for July 10th

Like us on FaceBook!
Get Real Time updates and market alerts on Twitter!
TOP 10 CANDLESTICK PATTERNS TRADERS SHOULD KNOW – We are sharing 3 today and will share the rest over the next few days – Stay Tuned!!
1 – EVENING STAR AND MORNING STAR
  • The evening and morning star candlestick patterns occur at the end of upwards/downward trends respectively and tend to indicate reversal patterns.
  • The names come from the star shaped formation of the arrangement.
  • As you can see from the image below, the first candlestick is in the direction of the trend, followed by a bullish or bearish candle with a small body. The third candlestick is seen in the direction of the reversal, ideally closing passed the halfway point of the first candlestick.
  • Trading this candlestick pattern will require a confirmation candle in the direction of the respective reversal – for example, traders will look for a bearish candle after the evening star.

2 – BULLISH & BEARISH ENGULFING
  • bullish or bearish engulfing candlestick pattern may indicate reversal patterns.
  • A bullish engulfing candlestick formation shows bulls outweigh bears. As the pattern below shows, the green body (bulls) covers completely the first candlestick (bears).
  • A bearish engulfing candlestick pattern is small green (or bullish) candle followed by a larger red (bearish) candle immersing the small green candle.

3 – DOJI
  • The Doji candlestick chart pattern is associated with indecision in the market of the underlying asset. This could mean potential reversal of the current trend or consolidation.
  • This pattern can occur at the top of an uptrend, bottom of a downtrend, or in the middle of a trend.
  • The candlestick itself has an extremely small body centered between a long upper and lower wick.

More to follow and in between try out some of these formations on our FX demo below.

Range Bar Charts

Find a quick video below on why I prefer range bars, volume charts over time charts for short term trading ( any chart time frame less than 10 minutes).
You can view a few more educational videos such as this here.
https://youtu.be/id3fKJIj-2k

While I use different techniques when long term trading, I like to use range bar charts for the short term trading. When using a time frame of less than 30 minutes or even less than 10 minutes, I am partial to using range bar charts for short term trading futures instead of the traditional time frame charts.

Using Tick/Volume Charts and Oscillators

Dear Traders,

Using tick/Volume charts and Oscillators for day trading

Using tick charts and oscillators for day-trading (by Ilan Levy-Mayer VP of Cannon Trading )
I really don’t think anyone has found a “perfect way” to day-trade.
Different techniques work well in different market environment.
In this week short educational feature, I will touch about one technique one can add to their trading arsenal. This technique works better on choppy, two sided ways. It DOES NOT work well when the market has a strong trend.
The chart below illustrates a few principals I like:
  1. It uses a tick chart rather than a time chart. I like tick charts ( range bar, volume charts, renko) better when day-trading shorter time frames for the simple reason it already includes a big factor in the market, VOLUME.
