In the video I discuss the importance of 'Candle Wicks' in price action and how I use them to refine an entry. I like to use the 1 minute chart for my entries and have certain criteria to trade with the trend (which I discuss in the video). When trying to trade with the predominant trend up/down, I look to trade retracements. One thing I look for is wicks into...

In the video I discuss the concept of Anchors in trading and how I use them in my own trading. Anchors play a major part in identifying the prime areas to trade and also in risk management when in a trade. I will discuss my prime setups and trading areas using anchors and multi-timeframe analysis. ** If you like the content then take a look at the profile to get...

US and European markets came under fire and took a hit in a risk off move after US credit was downgraded. Traders and investors are looking at the bigger picture now as a lack of confidence into the US government as they distract themselves from the bigger picture of actually managing the economy. With a safe haven move up into the USD and and unwind into an...

US and European markets saw a relatively tame session to end the month. Major indexes remain buoyant and edge higher even as the USD gains and US Bond yields hold around long term highs. While traders focus on the end of a global interest rate rising cycle, share markets remain risk on. For me, the technical view remains positive for now with focus today on the...

US markets moved lower on prospects of higher interest rates. Bond yields in the US spiked as to did the USD which pressured dollar denominated assets like Gold, Silver and Copper. The major US indexes moved lower on news that Japan is going to let longer term bond yields move higher which in turn pressured US bonds lower and detracted from the attractiveness of...

US and European markets continue the grind higher as focus remains on coming earnings from big Tech in the US. Overall, major indexes are extended so I feel that it will not take much to prompt investors to unwind and take some profits. In saying that, the trend remains up in the near term so there is no reason to close positions at the moment. The USD has been...

US markets had a quiet session Friday to follow on from an uneventful European session. Traders are focused on the US earning session so I expect to see support in the near term. I feel that the markets are generally extended and traders will be in a holding pattern ahead of results from big tech next week. Defensive stocks were favoured on Friday which, for me,...

A look at the price action for the Australian ASX200 Index. The recent price action has been very choppy and directionless leaving both bulls and bears scratching their heads. I expect that this uncertain theme will continue in the short term with the mid to longer term action largely range bound. In the short term, I expect to see a swing lower and if recent...

I walk through the pre-market prep and the price action that led to a big move on the Nikkei Index. Learning price action means understanding 'WHO' may be trapped and where they will start to feel the pain and be forced to act and potentially close positions....that is when we want to initial a position to take advantage of the move. The Nikkei index was a great...

I small trade today on the Hang Seng Index that turned out to be quick and simple with little to no pressure from the entry. Could have been a better exit but all up it was a good start to the day.

US markets gapped up on buyers enthusiasm after a weaker than expected CPI release that signals inflation is easing more than expected. US Bond yields fell while the USD was sent lower also which I expect is the big story from overnight. I feel that the USD will find more weakness in the near term but will not be without a bounce here and there. Gold and Silver...

US markets had another rally ahead of the all important CPI data release prior to the US open. It seems that markets have dragged in bulls recently which sets up for an interesting market if the CPI figure comes out stronger than expected...meaning sticky inflation and further rate rises. US Bond yields held steady while the USD swung between gains and losses in a...

US markets had a good start to the new week ending with some gains ahead of the all important CPI later in the week. All eyes will be on the data release for a gauge on inflation and what that will mean to further rate rises in the US. US bond yields moved lower while the USD also pushed down into support which is likely traders squaring up positions ahead of CPI....

US markets were closed for the 4th July holiday which saw muted trading across the European session. The RBA held off on another rate rise much to the relief of Australians who are feeling the squeeze. The RBA notes that a lot of the inflation can be attributed to corporate profit margins increasing so may be a reason why they are holding off on rates (as raising...

European and US Indexes bounced into the weekend setting up for a strong open for the Asian session. Some debt ceiling optimism and stronger than expected economic data helped bulls squeeze out recent sellers for the drive higher. The data showed strength in inflation and the US consumer which points to a resilient economy...but it also points to sticky inflation...
