Candlestick charts focus on the relationship between opening and closing prices, providing valuable insights into market dynamics and the battle between beginners and professionals.
🌪️

Chaos theory suggests that while markets are largely chaotic, there are periods of order and structure within the chaos that can be identified and taken advantage of by traders.
💡

Market patterns are fractals, meaning that analyzing the markets from different time horizons is important to confirm buy or sell messages.
📈

Traders tend to buy at support levels and sell at resistance levels, making the effectiveness of support and resistance a self-fulfilling prophecy in the market.
📈

Support and resistance are more important in long-term charts than on short-term charts, and a good trader gives more weight to longer time horizons when monitoring the market.
💰

Analyzing volume can help professionals understand the markets in more depth and operate with better compensation and less slippage in liquid markets.
📈

Volume-based indicators, such as the exponential moving average and the volume on balance sheet, can provide more accurate signals for investment opportunities based on volume patterns.

Technical Analysis Tools

📈

The exponential moving average can confirm an upward trend and provide excellent buying opportunities when prices fall to its moving averages.
📊

A good toolbox of trading tools includes various popular indicators, the ability to modify and create your own indicators, and the option to compare different markets and analyze different intervals.
📊

The combination of two exponential moving averages, with a ratio of approximately 2 to 1, can provide valuable insights into both shorter-term and longer-term value consensus in trading.
📈

The MACD histogram is a powerful tool that measures the balance of forces between bullish and bearish trends, indicating whether they are gaining or losing strength.
💡

Divergences between the MACD histogram and prices are rare but powerful signs of technical analysis, often marking crucial inflection points in the market.
📈

The exponential moving average of the index of strength can be used to identify entry and exit points, confirm trends, and detect major trend reversals in the market.

Trading Strategies and Tactics

📈

"Trading trends and ranges require different tactics, with long positions in a bullish trend requiring wider stops and tight stops for trading ranges."
📊

"Chart patterns and trading signals can contradict each other at the right edge of the graph, so combining various tools of analysis is more likely to provide a correct message."
📊

When approaching a trading operation, it is important to analyze the historical data of a value over a significant period of time, typically around 12 years, to determine if it is cheap or expensive compared to its long-term horizon.
📈

"The directional system helps traders to take advantage of important trends before they end."
📈

The use of ATR (Average True Range) channels can be an effective tool for setting entry points, stops, and profit targets in stock trading, providing a systematic approach to managing trades.
⚖️

Oscillators help professionals identify extremes in market emotions, allowing them to bet against deviations and prepare for sell short or buy opportunities.
