A big change Darvas made to his strategy was not buying the first breakout above the 'Darvas Box' but instead the 2nd breakout to avoid 'fakeouts' more often. Very significant change which is discussed in the video. The Nicolas Darvas booked mentioned is 'You Can Still Make It In The Market'.
Kudos to you for bringing the learning of such esteemed winners in a lucid and pleasing way. Have recently read the books of these legends and your videos helped in recapitulation and cementing the learning. Your annotated charts are informative and make it real easy to understand the underlying concepts. knowledge dissemination is simple yet highly effective and powerful. Thank you for sharing the knowledge.
Wow, this video is fantastic! You did an excellent job of breaking down the complex topic into simple and easy-to-understand concepts. The visuals were engaging and informative, and the pacing of the video was perfect. Thank you for providing such a high-quality educational resource. I look forward to watching more videos like this. 🙏
I like the way you teach and help to assimilate more quickly the systems used by Mark Minervini, Darvas, O'neill, etc... For me it is a plus to be able to visually understand their systems (I have read their books 16 times already). The way you have of teaching and with the small visible details of quality you bring a lot of value to the society.
Jack as it can be seen that the darvax box strategy is awesome as well as informative. As seen in the few examples which are taken, darvas wouldn't buy the 1st breakout which in turn would lead to missing out on good ralls. So wanted to ask, can we apply all the rules as mentioned by him and tweak this particular thing by buying the 1st breakout with a stop loss. What is your take on it. Would like to hear from you soon
Thank you for the question. Have you watched several more recent videos on the channel? They might help give a deeper answer. I'm often not buying a 'base breakout' but buying somewhere within the base when a see 'tightness' and a favourable risk vs reward trade. Usually I'm looking for some form of Darvas Box, Flag, CwH, VCP etc and then for price to tighten on one or more key MAs such as the 10, 21, or 50. Keep a lookout for a video coming out this week... it'll have lots of information on entries!
The darvas box strategy & the improvisation in the 2 nd book..i think the 1st is better.. although many SLs due to fakeouts but we miss lot of trades in 2nd version.. that shouldn't be a problem as long as we stick to our SL rules..but setup & strategy aside..i will be very grateful to Darvas for his thinking, mindset, approach to trading as a whole & the advices which he has given all through both the books which are no less than pure gold..👏👏👌
10:13 Dear Jack, do you have any observation from also other traders related with 1st breakouts? Do you have any comments how to avoid false breakouts? Or do you think 2nd breakouts can be more significant? How minervini or dan zanger or qullamaggie handles it? Any idea?
Great question. Personally, I think it's more about how the base is developing from a supply and demand perspective. I look for VCP (volatility contraction pattern) behaviour 'under the pivot' and avoid where possible 'V-shaped' breakouts. False breakouts and getting stopped out part of the game, why risk management is of #1 importance.
You know, Jack, interesting enough, I read the same thing about diversification from the book "You can be a stock market genius" by Joel Greenblatt, that the best level diversification is around 8-12 stocks, and anymore than that would provide little additional benefit to mitigate against market risk.
Thank you for the detailed comment. Yes, I remember that book too. Another consideration is where is the 'cut off' for having too many stocks the trader can no longer make optimal decisions due to scattered attention.
