    In the video richard showed multi-time frame analysis through monthly, daily, and weekly, but not the hourly. Ever since I started using hourly charts to refine entry points I have find earlier entries with lower risk than the typical standard new high pivot point breakout, I think using hourly charts to dig deeper for entry points is very underrated.

    • @TraderLion
      @TraderLion  3 роки тому +6

      Agreed, on the day of the breakout I use 65m to watch price action and volume.

      Same man.Even i have figured out the same on INDIAN STOCKS.On hourly basis,we can have lower risk entry points(i.e pivot points) and bcoz of that,we can get substantially higher RR.

  • @dirkdarwin2571
    @dirkdarwin2571 2 роки тому

    My new favourite strategy is drawing a trend line across descending tops as price pulls back to an uptrending 20 or 50.... as soon as it breaks that downtrend and opens above my descending trend line, BOOM!! You get a great stop placement at the recent low and avoid all the crazy shakeouts higher up. It's buying strength, after weakness, within overall strength.

  • @sedul2006
    @sedul2006 Рік тому

    Thank you, how to ensure you don't miss moves if you're not daily watching the charts, do you set bracket orders / buy stop orders (10 cents above pivot points) with stop losses and profit targets off hours to get in? But then, price isnt enough as there are false breakouts...

  • @nadonadia2521
    @nadonadia2521 3 роки тому

    Great video, but i do not agree with you about RVLV trade it was not a perfect pivot point and a risky trade, because RVLV has made a bout 100% from it is earliest pivot points made in december 2020, the stock was breaking from a large base witch lasted about one year. In may case i'am always looking for those kind of setups where the 50SMA, 100SMA and 150SMA, are sloping up and the stock in entering Weinstein stage 2, in your case you did not have a confirmation due to the moving averages, one month later, mid june 2021there was another breakout about 60$ and the moving averages where in line with the breakout.

  • @jeevakalathi3861
    @jeevakalathi3861 3 роки тому

    Nice video Richard. When I place a buy stop order above the pivot point, I'm getting into the stock once it come out of pivot even on low volume. Is there any percentage above the pivot line that we need to set the buy alert inorder to avoid breakouts without volume?

  • @secretnobody6460
    @secretnobody6460 2 роки тому

    Yo Richard. Would you buy a breakout from a base but doesn't have any build up near the resistance or like a handle figure? Instead it was a breakout straight from the support level of the base with a good volume. im hesitating to buy those breakouts because they already ran up a few percent even before the breakout and im thinking that it might come back down because of the selling that might occur?

      Same concept, yep! A pivot just refers to as the price area that has has seen sellers have taken control. So when price breaks through this area the selling pressure has dried up and directional movement is expected.

    Traders biggest enemy is trend flipping on A dime(e.g. 1H/lower time frame trend).Trend on 4H chart is the best trend guide for majority of forex traders( if one keeps trades for 2-5 days). By the time trader realizes that trend on daily chart is up, market has already gone up about 3-5 days & if you ask supercomputer for the mathematical odds, computer tells you that odds are negative right from the start.Trend based on the last 5-10,four hourly candles has enough players/juice behind it so that it would not flip on A dime, so trader has decent chance to make something without buying overpriced asset. We seek your wisdom?

  • @elonmusknewsnetwork

    The issue with these pivot points and market structure is that institutions sand algos will go stop hunting to shake out retail traders and break these patterns. You have to have a more fundamental case for the stock breaking out to higher levels so you can weather those manipulation moves.

    • @TraderLion
      @TraderLion  Місяць тому +1

      Breakouts work best when the market is trending above its 20 day moving average. Undercut & rallies are another great way to enter a stock before a pivot breakout (higher failure rate though).

    • @elonmusknewsnetwork
      @elonmusknewsnetwork Місяць тому
