Gap opportunity setup -TSLA Gaps are opportunity setups for trading purposes, but why? Because at those times you know for sure that something is happening with the stock so it will move to a certain direction. It gives you a signal of one of the following scenarios: - Someone is "exploiting" news and creating a shakeout to generate liquidity for himself so he can buy more stocks by inducing FEAR into the hearts of the paper hands. - Someone urgently wants to get rid of his stock, so he reduces the price until he finds uninformed value investors who can take from him the stocks. Since he is the puppet master who is a giant of industry relative to the ants of uninformed value investors, there will never be more uninformed value investors demand than his supply, so the gap can't be filled. Note to self: To create educational idea about this. Here I just described 2 scenarios out of 8 possible scenario combinations. You have TrendUP/TrendDown (2) Multiplied X by Gap up/Gap Down (2) Multiplied X by Filled/ Not Filled (2) Equals = (8) combinations. Again, if you don't have the master puppet philosophy of stock market logic, you are always confused. If you look at the market like the master puppet, everything makes sense and you have calm and easy trading. See my other posts about the puppet master theory and philosophy to know more. See that there is an upcoming earnings in TSLA very soon, the stock is just begging to move... If the stock will remain in place, and there will be gap up in earnings, there will be Island pattern so this is clear strong indication to the LONG side...

What are Volume Candles and how to use themVolume Candles are a great chart type you can use to integrate volume analysis into your trading. TradingView is a superb platform that offers this chart type in real-time, so you can immediately get a completely different feel of what the market is actually doing. As an experienced trader, understanding volume candles is crucial in getting a deeper insight into market dynamics. Unlike standard candlestick charts, which focus primarily on price movement, volume candles combine price action with the strength of trading activity (volume). This offers a unique perspective that can give you an edge in reading market sentiment and momentum. What Are Volume Candles? Volume candles are modified candlestick charts where the width of the candle is proportional to the trading volume during the corresponding time period. The typical candlestick elements—open, high, low, and close prices—are still present, but the volume aspect adds an additional layer of information, enhancing the clarity of price action. Key Features of Volume Candles: Height: Represents price movement (just like in regular candlesticks). Width: Indicates the volume of trades within that period. Unique Information You Can Extract from Volume Candles: 1. Volume-Driven Price Action Volume candles show how much trading interest exists at various price levels. When you observe a large volume candle, it tells you that a lot of market participants were active at that price. Conversely, a thin candle signals lower activity. This helps you: A. Identify levels where strong participation occurs (institutional players what I call the puppet master). B. Spot consolidation zones where volume is low, which often precedes significant price moves. 2. Momentum Confirmation High-volume candles that align with price trends suggest strong momentum. Wide Bullish Candles: If you see a wide up candle during an uptrend, it indicates that the buying pressure is backed by solid volume. This gives more credibility to the uptrend and hints at a continued move upward. Wide Bearish Candles: Similarly, a wide down candle during a downtrend signals strong selling pressure. Volume Candle Chart can also be used for day trading purposes where you need to act FAST. This TradingView chart type is extremely good so you don't need to compare the traditional volume bars on the bottom of the chart. IMPORTANT: You must understand the puppet master mentality, which gives you context. *** EXTRA: You can use this theme color.

Stock Market Logic Series #10Do you think the above is a coincidence? There are no coincidences in life - only cause and effect. You are where you are because of a cause that is bound to physical and natural laws. The same pressure of physics that works on the airplane wing, or the balloon that wants to push its way up when pressed into water (pool), also works in the stock market. You just have to KNOW how to SEE it. follow my explanation. If you follow the price action, you can see clearly where the high-pressure volume comes in, you can't miss it. It is obviously seen. Then you need to wait for the correction, and you want to see that the correction is demonstrating a low-volume pressure behavior. When you see this low volume pressure behavior, the stock has DRIED UP. This DRYING-UP effect is a key indicator of a probable future LIFT and stock movement. You want to ask yourself the question: Why the stock is not falling down anymore? The question of "WHY" is searching for the cause BEHIND the stock movement. The stock movement is only the effect! In previous posts, I explained the other LOGIC behind this pattern, and explained why the price should not fall down and with a high probability of going up. If you read any of the books of Jesse Livermore, he clearly states that you need to "KNOW" that the stock will move your way, first let the market "SHOW YOU" exactly what will happen, and only then you put in a trade. The KEY CONCEPT in this idea is the DRYING UP OF VOLUME. When you understand the WHY behind the stock movement, buying and selling are emotionless. The focus should be only a trading setups that you "KNOW" it is highly probable to move in your expected trade direction. You "KNOW" because you have stock market LOGIC to back it up. If you want a specific post about Jesse Livermore's trading rules, let me know in the comments. It is always important to make sure that you have the correct perspective on the stock market, otherwise, you get confused. There is only at every given time only ONE side to the market as Jesse Livermore said, "The RIGHT SIDE". This goes back to my idea, that at every given time the puppet master ONLY buys or sells but NOT BOTH.

Stock Market Logic Series #8The natural psychological expectation is that after a stock goes up, it will continue to shoot up and go to the moon. But the truth is, that most of the time, the above does NOT happen immediately. WHY? Put yourself in the shoes of the BIG SHARK, the Puppet master... You want to buy the stock so you increase the price to lure people to sell to you. When you reach this point of selling, you know this is a price people are willing to sell... So what do you do? You stop buying and start ABSORBING all the selling from the weak hands. Not all weak hands are the same. Some people will want to sell at the new high or resistance. Some people will fear and want to sell at support. But what truly matters, is that when the BIG SHARK discovered where the ACCUMULATION zone, he has zero motivation to mark the price up further. And before the next run-up, he will stop force buying and start to let others sell into him (whipsaw motion). This is the WHY, price will not move further up IMMEDIATELY. And you will usually see a flag pattern or a triangle pattern before the next run-up. So always remember to keep in mind, that the LONG SIDE needs a RUNWAY before takeoff. I am talking here about being consistent and having extremely more confidence in your trading. Once you understand the LOGIC behind the patterns, you are much more likely to trade them correctly. It is much more bullish to wait for the RUNWAY to form than just buying a new high. In this post, I explained the logic of why so many new highs are "fails" and do not take off...

Stock Market Logic Series #6Use earnings reports to your advantage. As I discussed in previous ideas, the big money at any given time will be entering the market or getting out of the market. Never both. When the earnings report is good, and the stock falls down => big money used it as a good advertisement to get out. When the earnings report is bad, and the stock goes up => big money used it as a bad advertisement to scare other people to sell him their shares, thus he gets it. This is the logic, and this is what you would have done if you had a lot of shares to buy and sell. Trading is a business and as such it has the same functions as regular business. The beautiful thing about the earning of the BIG CAP stocks, is that they give you a very high probability of direction to the market indexes. This is a situation where you "know" the market is going to move a certain way. Most of the stocks will follow the index direction. This gives you a very very good day trade opportunity. TSLA is a big cap, so any move of her, will directly effect the indexes. This is why it is important to be aware of the BIG CAP earnings reports. If you monitor those earnings you will see that you can gauge with very good accuracy and confidence what the market will do on a specific day. And milk the market using a day trade technique. I attach to you how the earnings report of TSLA which created a gap down. Pulled all the other stocks down also. This is not a coincidence... Your thought process is: - earnings report of BIG cap is out - This will pull the market to certain direction and bias - I "know" the bias with confidence - Odds are in my favor this day :) - Day trade See the strong DOWN bias of all the stocks... Moral of the story: You should be AWARE to the BIG CAP earnings report. It makes or breaks your day...

Stock Market Logic Series #5We are going to discuss the concept of FAIR price and how it is related to momentum. This is also a missing piece of the puzzle related to the guppy moving averages. Which never explains the logic of fair price behind the moving averages. Just saying "traders are selling" or "investors are buying" without giving you the psychology behind the buying and selling. The psychology behind buying and selling: When you want something, you are willing to pay a premium on it, just to get it. When you don't want something, you are willing to give a discount on it, just to get rid of it. The Significance of Moving Averages in Stock Market Trading In stock market trading, moving averages play a significant role in determining the fair price of a stock. Fast moving averages represent the short-term fair price, while slow moving averages indicate the long-term fair price. These moving averages serve as important indicators for traders, helping them understand the price trends and make informed decisions. Trading Above the Fair Price: Strong Buyer Interest When trading is above the fair price, it signifies that buyers are highly interested in acquiring the stock, even if it means paying above the fair price. This increased buying pressure drives the price up, as individuals value the stock and are willing to pay a premium to secure it. This scenario presents an opportunity for traders to benefit from price appreciation. Go with momentum. Buying Opportunities: Trading Below the Moving Average Conversely, when the price of a stock falls below the moving average, it indicates a potential opportunity for investor buyers. In this situation, the previous owner of the stock may become anxious to sell and is willing to do so at a price below the fair value. This creates a favorable buying opportunity for investors, as the stock can be acquired at a discount or fair price. Trading Below the Fair Price: Anxious Sellers and Discounted Stocks Trading below the fair price implies that the old buyer is motivated to sell the stock quickly. They may be eager to get rid of their position, leading them to offer the stock at a price lower than its fair value. For trading purposes, this means momentum is down, and you should look for an opportunity to sell. If the price is dramatically traded below the fair price (away from MA) this could FLAG you that a trend reversal may just happens. Remember the psychology of buying and selling. Ask yourself, if someone wants it, how come this price is so cheap? Unfair Prices in a Downtrend: Waiting for Confirmation of a Decline Moreover, when you are in a downtrend, when the price is above the moving average, it indicates that the stock is trading at an unfair price. However, if you have insights or analysis suggesting that the price will decline in the future, it may be wise to wait for the short-term trend to shift. By observing the stock's movement and waiting for the price to fall below the yellow fair price (moving average), traders can confirm that selling is indeed happening before making their move. Getting in too early, with the wrong trading technique, will get you hurt. Assessing Market Conditions: Understanding Fair Prices and Moving Averages By understanding the dynamics of fair prices and their relationship with moving averages, traders can better assess market conditions. They can identify when prices deviate from their fair value and use this knowledge to their advantage. This insight allows traders to make informed decisions based on price trends, helping them maximize potential profits and minimize risks. Comprehensive Research: Beyond Fair Prices and Moving Averages If you could couple of other factors that support your view of FAIR price. You can consider various factors such as company fundamentals, industry trends, and market sentiment to complement your understanding of fair prices and moving averages. Enhancing Trading Strategies: Incorporating Technical Indicators In addition to fair prices and moving averages, traders should also consider other technical indicators and tools to enhance their trading strategies. These may include volume analysis, trend lines, support and resistance levels, and oscillators. By incorporating multiple indicators, you can gain deeper insights into market movements and improve your ability to identify profitable opportunities. Adapting to Market Dynamics: Continuous Learning in Stock Market Trading Understanding the concept of fair prices in relation to moving averages is just one piece of the puzzle. Successful traders continually adapt and refine their strategies based on market conditions, new information, and evolving trends. By staying informed, conducting a thorough analysis, and employing sound trading principles, you can increase your chances of success in the stock market. Hope this helps you, follow for more. Like this post to save it to your ideas for future reference, so you will not forget this principle.

Stock Market Logic Series #4The Puppet Master in his best work. Once you see him, you can't unsee him. Whether you are a day trader or a stock investor, you should know where the bigger player that plays the stock intends to buy or sell the stock. If he intends to buy the stock, the stock will eventually go UP. If he intends to sell the stock, the stock will eventually go DOWN. You should always have in mind the following perspective: The bigger player AKA the Puppet Master, has unlimited amounts of money. He controls the market. If you view the market in this way, you will get the insight that if you think of yourself as having unlimited money to use, what would you do??? - You should make an experiment in TradingView Demo, and play as if you have unlimited money. You will get a lot of insight to the mind of the puppet master, just from this experience only. - You would try to buy out, all the other players and seduce them to sell the stock to you. - You buy out other people, by increasing the price up by pressing on the ASK, so people will take small profits. - You would try to shake out, using fear, to make other players sell the stock to you. - You shake people out by stopping buying on the ASK, and only willing to buy what other people willing to sell, you have time, you know you at any time can move the stock up, no matter how hard it went down. You move the stock up at any time by pressing hard on the ASK buy button. - Having unlimited money does not create stocks, it has to come from someone else. You need volume, so you could buy stock from weak players. As stated you have your ways of doing the above. -There is no selling and buying simultaneously, you have your campaign of buying and then of selling. Never do both at the same time. You thinking big, making serious money from the markup and the markdown of the stock. Once you understand this perspective, by looking at the volume, you can have a very good guess of what the bigger player or Puppet Master is doing. You see where he creates volume and where he has no volume, so he needs to respond (by buying aggressively on the ASK, and pushing the stock up). Chart is also self-explanatory Follow for more Stock market logic, volume analysis, chart patterns :)

Stock PersonalityIt is super important to make a NOTE of what the personality of the stock looks like. You should choose a stock with a smooth personality. Avoid stocks with schizophrenic noisy personalities. There is someone who wants to get in or get out. This someone has a plan and trades the stock according to his plan. This someone doesn't change his plan every day, since this will be time and effort-consuming and confusing even to himself. People want to be consistent. So if this someone decides I will make my life easy and sell sell sell and buy buy buy which makes the stock looks smooth. This is someone you will have a much better trading experience with. THE GOAL: is to search where you can make your money easily - egoless. Follow to tune in to more of this material.

Stock Market Logic Series #3When you buy (get-in) fresh cucumbers, you have time until they will expire. But when you need to (get-out). You need to liquidate FAST or cucumbers will rot and you cant sell them to anyone. The same thing goes for the fashion industry. When a clothes trader purchases clothes for sale he needs time to buy and ship the clothes to the store, it does not happen all at once. When the season ends, and if he needs to get rid of all this "unfashionable" end-of-season clothes. So he wants to liquidate and get out FAST! So you see massive discounts to get everything from him to the consumer. The same goes for stock trading... Hope this helps you read better the charts between buying behavior and selling behavior.

Stock Market Logic Series #1The purpose of this series is to provide insight into what price is likely to do... and more vital... what price is not likely to do... (since X is the cause and X is not existing, hence Y will not happen...) The chart is self-explanatory. IF no-one cares about the stock THEN no one will put money into it (no volume) THEN it will not rise. The BIG question is, at a certain overextended place, the price is rising, even though, everyone is at a loss on this stock. why NOT crush into a price of $1 in one sharp move? Can we "KNOW" that we are in an overextended place? When you have stock market logic behind you, you will be more confident to take trades.

Mark Minervini's Trend-TemplateIn the last tutorial, we have highlighted the importance to look for stocks in a confirmed stage 2 uptrend and explained why. But how can we use technical chart analysis can be used to identify stocks in a stage 2 uptrend? US investment champion Mark Minervini developed the so-called Trend-Template which can be used to screen for stocks in a confirmed stage 2 uptrend. TradingView provides all of the relevant tools to automate this screening process. The following section summarizes the technical characteristics which must be met so that a stage 2 uptrend for a stock can be confirmed: Trend-Template to confirm a STAGE 2 Uptrend 1. Stock price is above both the 150-day (30-week) and the 200-day (40-week) moving average price lines. 2. The 150-day moving average is above the 200-day moving average. 3. The 200-day moving average line is trending up for at least 1-month (preferably 4-5 months minimum). 4. The 50-day (10-week moving average) is above both the 150-day and the 200-day moving averages. 5. The current stock price is at least 25% above its 52-week low. (Many of the best selections will be 100%, 300% or even greater above their 52-week low before they emerge from a sound consolidation period and mount a large-scale advance). 6. The current stock price is within at least 25% of its 52-week high (the closer to a new high the better). 7. The relative strength ranking (as reported in Investor’s Business Daily) is no less than 70, but preferably in the 90s, which will generally be the case with the better selections. 8. Current price is trading above the 50-day moving average (exception “Low Cheat” setups Remark for 7: the relative strength ranking as reported by IBD is only accessible for IBD embers but the TradingView indicator 'Relative Strength (IBD Style)' by SKYTE can be used as an alternative. We at JS-TechTrading only consider stocks for our watchlists which are meeting all characteristics of Minervini's trend-template. Additionally, we are screening stocks for solid fundamentals using William o' Neils' CAN-SLIM methodology. This screening process in itself provides us with a significant competitive edge versus most other traders are doing.
