How to Trade a Platform: Position-Style Entry and Exit SignalsPlatform Position Style Trading is a trading style that is ideal for those of you who have a career and can only trade once a week to a few times a week. It is also great for retirees who do not want to sit all day monitoring your stocks.
It is a very low-risk trading style with higher profit potential, as the hold time is a week to a few weeks.
The platform is the Buy Zone for Dark Pools who trade OFF the public exchanges on unlit Alternative Trading Venues. There are 50 ATS venues. There are 15 public exchanges where all retail trading is transacted.
The Dark Pools create small incremental price action that is always horizontal as they control price to the penny spread and have a tight price range that pings their TWAP orders and other professional types of orders not available to retail traders.
Professional traders who trade as a business independently, search for the liquidity draw and the tight price action so they can nudge an HFT or MEME group to drive price up speculatively while the pros take huge profits.
If you learn to get in with the professional traders, then your profits will be significantly higher. Risk is minimal because Dark Pools accumulate over several months, often 3 - 6 months, and that provides you with the time to enter. Then, you can ride the momentum or velocity run up with the professionals. The TT Accum/Dist and Volume Oscillators provide entry confirmation signals before the price moves up and exit signals BEFORE the price moves down. Hybrid Leading Indicators are important for trading the modern stock market which is automated and transacts on the millisecond scale on the professional side.
