Thread: Plan the Trade

  1. #1
    Someone else has already begun a 'Trade the Plan' thread, so I have shortened my favorite title!

    I'm combining a few systems, therefore I will try to explain as I go along, instead of listing all criteria here from the name.

    I'm basing my trading system on a style I learnt by an brilliant trader with the handle 'Divergence'. He selflessly shares this technique on a thread under 'Trading Systems' whereas, I wanted to start a thread, I thought I would list it under 'Traders Journals' instead.

    I shall incorporate some Elliott Wave work in my style.

    2 of the primary variants I will be searching for are the following;



    Primarily a Cup Manage or Head Shoulders set up, which can be as trend change or trend continuation (following a pullback). I believe that it is self explanatory.
    The second is a pullback within trend, followed by a 123 or a flagline, (but preferably both). The 123 may be utilized back into trend. Looking for divergence in both cases will be important. Regular together with the first and Hidden divergence for trend continuation.

    1) Ascertain a trend (HH/HL or LL/LH's)
    2) Wait for a pullback
    3) Enter back into main trend with a 123
    4) Manage trade

    Still, I have managed to make a reasonable complete albeit with lots of comms to permit for;

    . .in a downtrend I have always utilized 123's using 1 as a high..not it really matters in this circumstance.

    Nice summary. Having the confidence and ability to place trade the setups in real time without emotion (too much anyway) is key.
    Something we are all striving for (besides H of course!)

    Thought that a 2b would be at the end of a trend
