As promised, here are two strategies for quick profits. BEWARE: Trading on 5 minutes charts with patterns that aren't as strong as their longer-term counterparts is VERY risky.
Apologies for my messy charts, still trying to work out the best way to display and explain.
Overview:
If you have a longer term pattern in place, it becomes easier to predict where the price may fall or rise to within the pattern. A chart of one hour or greater is recommended. You can use the strategies explained below in a market that is in a downtrend or uptrend phase.
Strategy #1 Patterns within patterns.
- Using 5-15 minute charts. - Buying the breakout of a smaller pennant. - Look for higher lows just before breakout. - Ensure you have a stop loss of your choosing. - Sell once broken the upward trend line. - Draw the steepest line possible, for earliest entry and exit prices.
Each black arrow on this chart represents a trade opportunity. There are at least 13 here.
Close-ups:
Strategy #2 Support and Resistance within patterns
- The more times price bounces off a support or resistance level, the stronger it becomes, thus less risk involved. - Before trying to buy the support zone, ensure there has been at least 2 bounces from it before. - Buying at the support level, with a stop loss of your choosing. I like 2-5%. - Sell at resistance or once short term trend line broken. - Where there is an arrow, there is a trade opportunity.
Each black arrow on this chart represents a trade opportunity. There are at least 6 here.
