Technical Analysis for Short-Term Traders


The principal difference between Day Trading and other forms of trading is the time frame

Technical analysis assumes that prices move in trends

Trends have a tendency to perpetuate

In technical analysis we are dealing in probabilities, never certainties

Outside bars are reversal patterns that indicate a change in sentiment

Inside bars indicate that prevailing momentum has dissipated because buyers and sellers are now equally matched

The key reversal bar should be accompanied by climactic volume

A very strong signal of a reversal in sentiment
Characteristics
1.      Price opens the bar strongly in the direction of the prevailing trend
2.      Trading range of the bar is extremely wide
3.      Price should close at or close to the previous close

Characteristics of Exhaustion Bars
1.      A wide trading range following a sharp price move
2.      The close is higher than the opening in a downtrend or the opening is lower than the close in an up trend
3.      The close is more than half way up the bar in a down trend, and more than half way down in an up trend
4.      Pinocchio bars give us a false impression of what is really going on
