Oil
A very long-term (Macro) Approach To US/Global MarketsAfter completing my weekend research/videos, I wanted to create something that provided an anchor for traders/investors.
This video is not focused on the short-term market trends - although it does discuss what I expect to see play out over the next 12 to 24 months.
This video is more about preparing traders/investors for the global events related to Central Banks, market trends/opportunities, and how I believe the markets will react over the next 5+ years.
After watching this video, your job will be to watch for key events to unfold. These events, described in the video, will be key to understanding where opportunities and risks are in market trends.
This is NOT the same market we've been used to from 2010 through 2021. This is an entirely different beast of a global market.
Credit/debt issues will persist, and conflicts/war may drive major repricing events.
Pay attention and follow my research.
I'm delivering this long-term research to help you better prepare for market trends and protect your capital from downside risks.

Why Crude Oil is Trending Higher Again, Breaking Above US$100In this tutorial, I will explain both its fundamental and technical reasons for crude oil likely to break above and stay above US$100.
I am having two portfolios at all times, one for long-term investing and the other for short-term trading.
For the long-term I am mindful the current global inflationary pressure is real and it may last many months or even years ahead.
Therefore, my current investment mandate:
• U.S. stock markets – To trade them
• Commodities – To buy them

• Our mission is to create lateral thinking skills for every investor and trader, knowing when to take a calculated risk with market uncertainty and a bolder risk when opportunity arises.

$0.01 = US$10
Example:
From $94.00 to $100.00
(10000-9400) x US$10 = US$6,000
CL1! - How I approach my analysisA Trader asked me, if I could show how I approach my analysis. And this is what this Video is about.
At the end we even have a potential trade and definitely a chart to observe.
What you will see is:
- the big picture
- swings
- Andrews Pitchfork
- the sine-wave pattern
...and even the classic Head & Shoulder, which reveille where the meat is.
Let's start...
What you trade is just as important as how you trade!Hey Traders!
WOW! What a Monday! Excellent moves in the markets today at the US open, I don't want to sound like I am bragging, but we kinda prepared ourselves very well for today by working our asses off on creating our watchlist, we knew what could be moving and we made sure that they focused on the best setups, setups that had the highest rewards and the lowest risks!
Aside from a big miss on WTI, we aced EURUSD, NASDAQ, DAX and EURJPY.
Preparation of a watchlist is vital for us day traders and we make sure to invest time into creating our day trading watchlists!
This video explains a little better what we did to make today a BIG SUCCESS for ourselves and our members!
Pivot Points StrategyPivot points can be used as entry points for new trades or as a close signal for the existing ones.
There are different types of pivot points with a different mathematical formula or simply using previous highs and lows.
HOW TO TRADE PIVOT POINTS
The following scenarios work with the Traditional Pivot Points
For the Camarilla version normally R and S are closer to the price and we use a different setup.
Trading setup #1 (Not so strong trend): Open price is between R1 and S1
Long when the price moves back above S1 after going below S1. Target will be P, R1, R2, .. levels.
Place Stop loss at the S2 level
Wait for the price to go above R1 and then when it moves back below R1 again, go short.
Profit target will be P, S1, S2 S3 levels and stop-loss above R2
Trading setup #2 (Normally very trendy bullish markets): Open price is between R1 and R2
Buy or go long when the price moves back above R1 again after going below R1. Target will be R2,
Place stop loss at R1
Wait for the price to go above S1 and then when it moves back below S1 again, sell or go short.
Target will be S2 levels, and the stop loss will be above P.
Trading setup #3 ( Very trendy bearish market ): Open price is between S1 and S2
Wait for the price to go above S1 and then when it moves back above S1 again, then go long.
Target will be P, R1, R2 levels, and stop-loss below S2.
Wait for the price to go below S4 and then when it moves below S2, go short.
Place stop loss above S1.
Trading setup #4 (High probability for a trend reversal or correction): Open price is above R2
Buying can be risky at this level. Wait for the price to go below R2.
As soon as the price moves below R1. go short.
Place stop loss above R3. Target S1, S2, or P
Scenario #5 (High probability for a trend reversal or correction): Open price is below S2
Selling could be risky at this level as the price has opened with a big gap down.
Wait for the price to go above S1.
When the price moves above S1, buy
Place a stop loss of S2. Target R1, R2, and P.
Learn To Trade Technical Analysis Hammer & Shooting StarHey Traders today I wanted to go over what I believe is one of the best ways to trade any market with Japanese Candlesticks using hammers and shooting stars. Normally you want the wick of the candle to be at least twice the size of the body of the candle. Alot of times they can lead to explosive moves in the markets. So lets dive in and see how to use this powerful technique in your trading arsenal.
Enjoy!
Trade Well,

Methodology overview & how we determine entries & exits (part 3)Hello.
Here is a quick 4-min video which mentions 3 indicators I have been using for many years.
- A modified ADX
- A short-term momentum indicator (it is not the Momentum Indicator... instead, it gives us the current momentum)
- A mid-term momentum indicator
This methodology includes other indicators but this video features those 3 indicators.
Thanks.

A "Welcome to" Pinescript codingThis simple idea is an intro to @TradingView & @PineCoders
Nothing fancy or complex, if you are already coding - you can skip this.
simple MA build walk through & adding a second MA.
If you want to get into coding, then here's the basic introduction.
FYI - I am not a coder, 21 years trading experience and know a bit about the instruments - but new to actual coding, especially in Pine.
Hope it helps someone!

OIL10.4.20 I am generally satisfied with the video, but I wasn't clear at the end because I was worried about upload failures for the video. Please read this for a minute so the end of the video will be more clear: oil has traded lower to a support area, but it closed near the low of the daily bar. There will be some traders who think in terms of probabilities... think that the market is likely to move lower because it's a bearish swing that closed near its low>>>and they might be correct. From a risk reward point of view, you can find a relatively close structural stop... and because of this, even knowing that the market may have a slight edge for sellers... you may be willing to take the long trade. On the other hand, even if the market favors the price moving lower, there is no nearby structural stop to manage a short trade... and that may be enough to walk away from the trade. It is for me, personally. Bad R:R filters out lots of trades for me, personally. This is because I have a core belief that I will find better trades, and I don't need to settle for this trade.
