Traditionally, the week before labor Day Weekend is slow….This is when many large traders and professional traders take their vacations with the plans of coming back to full speed trading after Labor day. Today was a perfect example of that. Slow, low energy trading. Obviously, if major news come out, this can change things rather quickly but today’s slow type of trading, low energy markets brings me to share with you once more why I like using range bar, Renko charts and volume charts rather than time charts for day trading.
Below you will see 2 charts.
Same markets, same time of the day and SAME INDICATORS….I think you will be able to see the advantages of using the range bar and volume charts in this examples:
Gold chart from today ( Aug. 27th) using 10 minutes time frame:
As you can see on the 10 minute chart, while we did get the blue buy arrow signal earlier, we also got two “fake” sell signals in the form of the red diamonds SIMPLY because time has passed, there was not much action in the market and the studies take on values as the bar closes.
Now look below , same time frame from today as well, using 24 tick RANGE bar chart:
No “fake” signals on this one…The ONLY signal we got today using this type of chart is the circled BLUE diamond. The range bars only completed 10 bars today as the market was simple slow….But were able to catch the nice up move early in the morning. If you look back in the same chart ( going back to the 23 of the month) you actually see that out of 7 signals, 6 were what I consider legit.
If you like to use the same indicators I am sharing in the charts above, you can try these proprietary indicators and ALGO for 3 weeks. This comes with a 15 minutes one on one remote session explaining the concept ( if interested).
