ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Special thanks to Matt Rudd, my brother and fellow trader who regularly spent time in brain storming sessions with me. Whenever I slipped into mental "vapor lock" trying to put my ideas down on paper, his writing talents made all of the difference. I also want to recognize my friend, Neal Weintraub, who taught me to keep my market analysis simple and straightforward. I carried this principle from my futures trading over
into my stock trading where I finally found my home. >
Thanks to Charlie Lacey for designing the book's jacket cover. Also, my gratitude goes to Ed Dobson of Traders Press for helping make this book available to all the other traders out there who do battle with the markets daily. Finally. I wish to thank collectively all of the other experienced SOES traders who have shared trading ideas with me. In particular I would like to acknowledge Emilio, Todd, and Duane "the wonderkid", as well as my friends whom I trade next to every day.
No one holds all of the keys to successful trading; the ideas are passed on from trader to trader as trading techniques evolve with the markets. So, in a sense, this is more than just my book, it's theirs also.
INTRODUCTION
Traders Press takes pride in making this book available to the trading public. It represents an especially worthwhile contribution to trading literature, given the virtual nonexistence of any worthwhile material, at this writing, on the sU9ject of day trading in individual stocks. Further adding to its value is the fact that itis written by a serious trader, who teaches what DOES work in the real world (based on personal experience) instead of what SHOULD work (based on theory). The genesis for the material came from Barry Rudd's work in codifying his own trading stategies to improve himself as a trader. The ideas came both from friends who were sue· cessful traders, as well as his own experience with SOES trading. The book relates his intraday trend trading approach for stocks, and provides a scalping approach designed around the same trade entry setups but with the intent of small, quick profits. Mr. Rudd has made a living for well over a year using the methods he describes in his book. This book was formerly privately published by the author in two manuals, one titled Stock Patternsfor Day Trading and Swing Trading, and the other a Sea/ping Module. Any refer· ences herein to separate manuals were in the original material. Both ofthe original manuals have been combined in this book. Edward D. Dobson, President Traders Press, Inc. January, 1998
FOREWORD
1 have not come across very many books on day trading slocks. Of the ones available. very few offer good. reliable strategies that can actually be applied in the vocation of day trading. Based on this. I have assimilated what I have learned from other successful traders, as well as what I have learned through my own experience. Since I have traded futures. stocks, and options over the past ten years, I have seen many people fall by the wayside for lack of a sound methodology and good money management. I want you to learn the techniques and strategies that will allow you to become a successful trader. Most books on day trading are long on theory and short on results. This manual bridges the gap between knowledge about the market and the ability to actually trade the market successfully. My hope is that you will use this manual to enhance your trading skills and achieve more consistent profits..

INTRADAY TREND METHODOLOGY This manual is your toolbox for finding high probability trades for success as you trade the stock market. The technical ideas are primarily crafted around the personality of the I ASDAQ market but may also be implemented in New York trades. The theory behind what you'll be reading hinges upon stock price movement which is reflected in daily and intraday bar charts. Many approaches to trading are espoused in books and address how to find, enter. and manage your trades. However, you wlll not find anything in publication or in training which provides you with the experience, dollar potential. and detail behind the trading methodology that is explained.in this manual. These methods are the same ones that have provided some of the earliest electronic (computer) day traders with profits which mounted into hundreds of thousands per year. Although this trading style is sound and profitable, it also must incorporate the an and mental discipline of each person who applies it. This is why many actual chan examples are provided to give you a feel for what really works. You willieam to time your trade entries and exits from experience with the aid of some helpful tips in later chapters. Be a student of the market and learn how each individual stock moves, its personality, and how the main overall market indexes affect the stock's movement on a daily and intraday basis. This method looks for price panerns which typically set up for an intraday trend in a stock. Entering the trade is only the first (and probably the easiest) pan of trading. How do you know where to exit if the trade goes against you? When do you exit if you have an open profit? You have to manage the trade based on the principle that the stock has chosen a direction for the day, and you are on board for the ride. This means you have to be willing to give the trade the room for price pullbacks against your direction of the trade. The idea is that on a buy setup a stock will move up, then pull back some, move up to make a higher high on the day, pull back some etc. as it continues its upward movement into the end of the day. Likewise. on a sell setup, the stock will move down to make a new low, then rally some, move down to make a lower low on the day, rally some etc. as it continues its downward movement. You want to stay on board for as much of the ride as possible and not exit the trade too soon and miss out on a substantial profit. These pullbacks are known as "wiggles" and are explained under the «terms and definitions" section of this manual. Each stock usually has its own panicular ·"wiggle" which can be determined based on the information provided later in the manual. Although there are times when a stock will reach a price where you will "cut" (or exit) the trade at a likely profit target, the key to this methodology's success is letting your winners run by giving them "wiggle" room. Once you have evaluated a stock and taken a position in it, you have to follow your trade exit rules established using principles from this manual. Don't be too quick to take a profit. The methodology by which you chose that panicular trade is sound and you should manage it that way. You've chosen that stock for a large intraday trend move. Sometimes a stock will immediately move in your direction and provide a good sized open
profit. Give it wiggle room to continue for further profit. Other stocks are slower in their response. Be patient and give them the chance to make their move. The reason you chose the trade was based on high probabilities. Let the odds work for you and stick to your guns as you manage the exit. As you near the end of the trading session you may want to take profits on current open positions, especially in the last 30 minutes as you assess the stock and the overall market direction. Money management must be an integral part of your trading. You always cut your losers and let your winners run. Although this is cornmon sense and sounds simple, it is often hard to stick to. This is why mental discipline is so important when managing your trades during the day. On the stocks that you will be trading, an initial loss of 1/4 point (and sometimes 3/8 point) is strictly adhered to. Once a trade has moved far enough in your favor and you have an open profit, the "standard wiggle" for a stock kicks in as a trailing stop-loss. This is explained in more detail later. The day trade setups are based purely on price action from the daily bar chart and intraday 5 minute bar chart. The only mathematical indicators used are the 50 and 200 day simple moving average lines based on the daily closes. Simplicity is your friend in this game. Get too technical and the probabilities of success begin to fade. Since this manual is not geared toward scalping, you will only be taking the highest probability price setups which have the potential for a I+ point move on the day. Any trade that offers less profit potential will usually be passed up. The characteristics of these setups are defined for you with textbook graphs as well as actual examples. Which stocks will you be trading? This question will also be answered so that you will have a universe of stocks on a ''ticker'' screen that you follow regularly and will come to recognize the price movement personality of each one. Trade only the most ''traderfriendly" stocks that provide the least downside risk along with the best profit opportunity. You will be given the criterion for these stocks so that you can easily choose which ones that you will want to follow. The manual is divided into two main sections~ day- trading and swing trading. For day trading you are initially presented the intraday 5 minute bar chan trade setups. This is followed by a section on 1 to 3 daily bar chart setups as well as longer tenn setups for high probability day trades. Expected price support and resistance areas are then described. All descriptions will include exhaustive actual examples and how they typically play out. Since timing of entry and exit are extremely important. I've also included a section covering the market maker and time of sale screens. These components are all used together to trade the best price setups, long or short, for your day trading success in the market. The section on "swing trading" addresses trade setups that are geared for multiple day holds (typically 2 to 5 days). These are obviously traded differently than the above described day trade setups. Finally. a worksheet is provided that gives you a template for
analyzing high probability setups for both day trades and swing trades coming into the following day.
Many chan examples are included with commentary. This provldes you a real world feel for how these trades set up and how they tend to play out in actual "live" trading. NOTE: Thoroughly read through the section covering "terms and definitions" before moving on to the rest of the manual. They are key to fully understanding and applying the trading methodology.
WHY USE PRICE BAR CHARTS Price bar charts paint a graphic picture ofa stock's price movements both during the day with the 5 minute bars, and longer term with the daily bars. The picture unfolds showing short and long term supply and demand and how it has moved the stock's price. This helps pinpoint specific areas of buying or selling pressure as they develop. The bar charts alert you [0 this "at a glance" when the bars trade into a tight range that hugs up or down against a certain price (usually the day's current high or low). This consolidation creates a price «compression" point where pressure builds and is finally released when the price level that held the stock is penetrated. Often this penetration is a the beginning of an intraday trend. By monitoring different slock chans throughout the day, a trader can quickly identify these pattern setups. Since: the trader knows which stocks are currently setting up for a potential move, he or she has the edge of catching the beginning of a good trade. The advantages of using a daily bar chart in conjunction with the 5 minute bar chart are covered throughout the manual. Using the 5 minute bar chan in particular gives you an edge over other market participants in 3 ways:
•
It allows you to follow a larger number of stocks, because all it takes is a quick glance at the chart to see if a trade is setting up. With more stocks on your ticker, more trading opportunities are uncovered and therefore more potential profits are available.
•
The specific price bar setups in the manual make sure you are entering the stock at the beginning of the initial move leading to a higher success rate per trade and a larger average profit per trade.
•
Since these price pattern setups reflect compression built up against the day's current high or low, the breakout is a very high-odds trade. The success rate of the stock's chosen direction far exceeds the random movements ("noise") back and forth in price throughout most of the day.
Without chans you are only looking at a snapshot of price in time. So much more can be seen with chans to give you an edge. Trading without charts i~ .. like flying blind!
TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
DAY TRADE - Refers to entering and exiting a stock on the same day. typically using 1000 shares. SWING TRADE - In this manual "swing trading" describes trades that may last from 2 to 5 days or more. You are looking for a bigger price move than you nonnally would in a day trade -- trying to catch a larger price «swing". DAILY BAR CHART - A daily bar sho';;s the open, high, low, and close ofa day's trading activity for a stock. fNTRADAY BAR CHART - An intraday bar chart shows a stock's price movement during the day, usually with 5 minute bars. SupPORT & RESISTANCE - (also referred to as "SIR") Price support and resistance are areas on a chan that have halted past price movement, A suppon area tends to halt downward price action, and resistance often halts upward price movement. You can visually see these on both daily and intraday bar charts. It may help to draw a horizontal line through these areas. The significance of support and resistance is to determine if a potential trade setup has enough room to give you a reasonable profit before the stock stalls at one of these SIR areas. Also, a penetration up through a resistance area may open the door for follow-through in the stock's upward movement. Conversely, a penetration down through a support area may then enable the stock to more easily continue its downward movement. CONSOLIDATION (daily and intraday) - Is when the stock trades in a tight, well defined price range for more than a few price bars. Consolidation can be seen on both the intraday and daily time frames simply by looking at the chart. On an intraday basis, consolidation at the high of the day or at the low of the day can be a potential setup to enter a trade on the breakout to new highs or lows. Price "congestion" is somewhat different and applies primarily to the daily chan. Usually it is best not to trade a stock while it is congested (i.e., has a lot of daily bars clustered together side by side without a well defined support or resistance area). This is characteristic of choppy price movement. Wait for the stock to break out of a congestion area and begin moving before you trade it PRICE "CONGESTIO~' - This is when a stock trades in a sideways, choppy manner without a definite direction or trend. It can easily be seen on a daily chart. Avoid trading stocks while they are in this mode. Wait for the price to move out of the congestion area or until it has a good consolidation type breakout setup as described in the price setup patterns of this manual. WIDE RANGE (WIR) BAR WI EXTREME CLOSE - See "1 to J daily bar" section
REVERSAL BAR{S) - See "1 to 3 daily bar" section BREAKOUT - Consider a stock that has consolidated against a price level for several bars (especially on the 5 minute chan). The point where it breaks beyond that price level is called the <'breakout" and often is the beginning of a short to intermediate term move in the direction of the breakout. FILL-PRICE - When you put an order Qut to buy or sell a stock, the actual price at which it is executed. is called the ''fin-price'',
WIGGLE - Wiggle refers to the intraday price action of a stock. When entering a day trade you are expecting the stock to begin trending in your direction on the 5 minute bar chart. Usually price doesn't go straight'up or down. If you are long, the stock will typically rally, then pull back, rally to a new intraday high, then pull back, etc. The question is: How far do you let a stock pull back against the direction of the trade before you exit? You don't want to get out too soon and leave further profits "on the table". To solve this problem, look at the past 5+ days ofa stock's 5 minute bar chart. On trending days, determine how far a stock pulls back on average before continuing the trend. If the average pullback is 1/2 point then you should allow that much room for the stock to ''wiggle'' before it resumes its trend. Each stock tends to have its own particular wiggle amount ranging anywhere from 1/2 to I+ points. Usually 5/8 to 3/4 points will hold the stocks that you will be trading. This does not mean that if you buy a stock at 40 that you exit at 39 3/8 for a 5/8 loss. You always use an initial stop-loss of 1/4 (sometimes 3/8) from your entry price. Once the stock moves up to 40 3/8 you would then begin trailing your exit point 5/8 behind the stock's current high as it continues to move up. This example assumes a 5/8 standard wiggle for that stock. STANDARD WIGGLE - Each stock has its own price movement personality. What you detennine-as the typical wiggle for a particular stock can be referred to as that stock's "standard wiggle". Be aware that these can change over time, so they may need to be .' updated occasionally. WIGGLED OUT - Once you are in a trade. you then manage it based on giving it the wiggle room to continue the anticipated intraday trend. If at some point the stock retraces back beyond its standard wiggle amount, you immediately exit the trade. You are then said to have been "wiggled out" (hopefully with a good profit). STOP-LOSS - This is your mental exit price from a trade that you have entered. It is initially 1/4 point (sometimes 3/8 point) from your actual ''fill-price'' when you have taken a long or short position in a stock. If the stock moves against you, you exit the trade and are said to be "stopped out" for a loss. On the other hand, if the stock moves in your favor you convert to a trailing stop when your open profit + initial stop-loss (1/4) is equal to the wiggle for that particular stock. Therefore, ifa stock's wiggle is 5/8 point then you must have an open profit of3/8 point before you begin adjusting your exit point. You are
then trailing your mental exit price in the direction of the trade to lock in profits. Strictly adhere to your initial and subsequent trailing stop-losses. It is an integral part of money management. SCALPrNG - Scalping is a style of trading based on taking small, quick profits. If a stock has a momentum surge in price, the trader quickly buys or sells in the direction of the price movement. He or she then puts out a bid or offer anywhere from 1116 to 1/4 point from the fill price before the momentum surge slows. Hopefully their bid or offer is taken and a quick profit made on their 1000 share trade. A scalp trade will typically last from just a few seconds to a minute or two. To make a decent profit scalping requires a significant number of trades and a high success rate per trade. Only one mistake can wipe out 5 or more profitable trades when you take into consideration conunissions and fees. The trade-exit strategy in this particular manual is not based on scalping. although scalping is another viable way to trade the market·.
HOW THE "WIGGLE" WORKS This will graphically show you how the wiggle works by monitoring the 5 minute bar chart after you enter a day trade. Assume a 5/8 point standard wiggle for this example. Look to the market maker screen bid/ask for timing your exit at the appropriate price.

[n the above diagram assume that you bought the stock at 30 1/8. This means that your initial Slop-loss exit would be 29 7/8 (1/4 point below your entry). Since this stock has a 5/8 wiggle, you would not begin moving up (trailing) your exit price until the stock price has reached 30 1/2. Once the difference between the current -stock price and the initial stop-loss price of29 7/8 equals the wiggle amount of 5/8, you begin moving your exit price up to where it is 5/8 below the highest current price on the day. Never adjust the stop-loss back down. Every time the stock makes a higher high on the day, it pulls up the 5/8 wiggle's exit price to help lock in profits. This gives the stock room to move around as it continues its intraday trend up. Don't just arbitrarily take a profit. Although some likely price targets are covered later, you have to let the wiggle work for you.

DAY TRADES
INTRADAY TRADING PATTERNS (for day trading)
rNTRODUCTION: This section covers intraday, day trade setups using 5 minute bar chans. You will almost alwavs be buying and sellimz breakouts of the current dav's hiQ.h or low based primarily on bar chart pattern setups. Momentum of price movement will be the key to timing the entry. Momentum can be seen with action on the market maker screen and time of sale screen. Recognizing the best setup pattern is the key to entering the highest probability trade. We will present the most" consistent trade setups and where to enter long or short with diagrams. Other secondary trades which may also be taken under
certain circumstances will be graphically analyzed and explained. Remember, although these rules are not set in stone, they provlde the foundation of a strong, high probability methodology for choosing profitable trades. Vertical dotted lines represent the stan of the day, horizontal dotted lines show suppon and resistance areas as well as consolidation boundaries.
• Most examples show buy setups. Sell setups are the same, just inverted. HlGH PROBABILITY TRADES: The first trade is an intraday pattern of a 5 minute bar chan that is the basic "dip and rally" setup for a buy breakout.

The consolidation at the high of the day is the key to the success of this setup, as it is with other pattern variations. The longer and tighter the consolidation, the better. This is a setup that develops through the day. Another more obvious pattern looks like this:

In the above setup #3, an active stock can show a deceptively illiquid intraday bar chart. The key to this chart pattern is to make sure the stock averages good volume on a daily basis (i.e. lOOk shares +), and that the daily bar chan shows good room for movement to the upside vvithout nearby price resistance. You can also keep tabs on its volume in the market maker screen,
The next chart is another conunon example leading to consolidation and a good breakout trade:

a breakout here is okay
Early morning consolidation (similar to pattern #2) can be an integral part of entering trades at the start of the trading day (although it is best to wait 10 minutes before you enter a trade). This way you can catch the first and best breakout. IfY9u are following a particular stock vvith the expectation of a good move on the day (or simply stumble across one vvith the follovving pattern), it may be a strong trade candidate. This is especially true if your market maker screen is moving and shovving momentum coming into the breakout. The pattern consists ofjust a few bars on the morning 3I'\Q a range of only a 1/8 to 1/4.
5)
The point here is to catch the earliest breakout and best price...otherwlse pass up the trade, Never chase a stock.
Once a breakout takes place, the stock normally begins a move. If you miss the initial breakout, other consolidation opportunities may setup in the stock as the day progresses. For example: 6)
.rnpn~ rI r1 fT ~I.... third consolidation with breakout
:
TIT\ .
next consolidation with breakout
fim breakout
is best
Obviously the first breakout is the best to take. The question arises as to whether you should take the second, third, fourth, etc... breakout. If you missed the earlier breakout(s), how do you know whether or not to take the next one? The best way is to know how long the overall market has been moving in a direction., and if it is losing steam. Also, consider the average daily range of the stock as well as the strength (momentum) of the breakout. If the stock often trades a 2 to 3 point daily range, then the subsequent breakouts may still have potential if the range on the day is, for example, only I and 1/8 points at that time. Looking at the daily historical chart will show whether the price is breaking out of a daily consolidation area and if daily support or resistance has been broken. This can often lead to a large magnitude move, even if the last few daily bars have been in a narrow price range. Again, the longer the consolidation on the 5 minute bar chart, the better the trade.
Trade setup #7 depicts 2 good trade entry points following extended consolidation. Both of them may be wonh taking, even though the first trade is a losing trade. The second breakout to the downside should not necessarily be passed up just because you lost on the first setup on the same stock earlier in the day.

''Wedging'' consolidation on the 5 minute chart, especially ifit develops over the first I to 2 hours aftrading, can precipitate strong breakout moves. This pattern usually sets up fOl a trade on the long side. Consolidation at the high of the day must be present and huggin~ the upper price boundary as the wedge pattern unfolds.

So far we've looked at the best and preferred trade setups where you should trade the breakout of the current high or low of the day out of strong consolidation... the longer tht consolidation. the better. There are also a few setups that are more aggressive and may t tradable.

The "'FLASHBACK" is another morning trade based on a quick reversal in direction of a stock's price. It quickly fakes one direction, then reverses back the other way to break the current high or low of the day. Look for the market index 10 be moving in the same direction the trade is taken for it to be wonhwhile. Here is how it sets up for a buy trade:
12)

13)
·11\ . II II II I
'I lip lilT ..
this breakout up from consolidalion should be considered if the distance from the breakout le'"el to the high of the day is at least I & \12 p:>mts. +- hugging upper price le·..el
This could be considered if the overall market index begins moving up stronglv and there is enough distance [Q the high from the breakout to make a decent profit. This is because the stock will usually meet resistance at the day's high. You could expect the stock to attempt to reach the day's earlier ~igh. In order for the trade to yield you money there should be at least 1 & 1/2 points from the breakout point to the high of the day. These trades can be good on a day when the market runs down in the morning and then makes a smooth, rounding bottom that subsequently swings back up.
These examples are often decem trade setups that may be taken for a reasonable percentage of success. The rationale is to get in early on a strong move that will provide good follow-through.
..
LOWEST PROBABllJTY TRADES: Be very careful with these patterns Here are some similar and seemingly desirable price patterns that should usuallv not be traded unless there is another convincing reason to enter. The first is a "dip and rally" consolidation that is not quite at the high of the day:

grc3t consolidation but it" s not at the h!&!! or low of the day. since you expect resistance at the high and suppon at the low of the day. odds are that a breakout trade will not move far enough 10 give you a profit. or it will rc\"crse off the high or low and \\iggle you out for
a loss
SUMMARY These have been a few graphic intradav price patterns to give you a feel for what to look for. They cover the best setups and higher risk trades, as well as what typically not to trade. Obviously these are drawn as textbook examples. Actual stock chans, as they unfold during the day. will vary somewhat.
CONCLUSION: What about yesterday's intraday price chart? Finally, there are occasions to consider yesterday's intraday price chart, especiaUy as it finished the last hour or two of the day. Here you are looking for stocks that traded in a tight consolidation pattern into yesterday's close at or near the high or low of that day. Today, if the stock opens in the same consolidation price range. you are looking at the possibility of an even more powerful breakout trade. Here is how it should look:

This presents a great breakout trade oftodav's current high or low. Refer to the daily bar price chart for analysis to get a bener idea of whether a~breakout to the upside or to the downside is the best trade to take. This price panern also enhances the success of trades in the next section covering dailv setups (w/r bars w/extreme close. and reversal bars). We'll cover daily price bar analysis next, looking at the past few day's price bars and how to react to today's market price movement based on them. You will see how they can be used together to bener choose which stocks to trade and also when to trade them as the current day unfolds.
INTRADAY CHART EXAMPLES
The next several pages show actual 5 minute bar chans for over 100 stocks. Each page has 4 stock charts with each chart providing two days of trading activity. Thi:(vertical dotted line through the center of each chart represents the end of the prior day and the beginning of the current day's trading session. Knowing the intraday price action ofa stock for I or more prior days helps give you a bener feel for that slock's personality. > These intraday chart examples are marked [0 show consolidation at the high or low of the day and the breakout point. Commentary is also provided. While most of these are good intraday trade setup examples, don't forget to look at the daily chart when you are actually trading. The daily chart will help you see where price support and resistance levels are. You are looking for trades that have room to run I + points during the day_

1 TO 3 DAILY BAR SETUPS (for day trading)
INTRODUCTION: In this section we'll be looking at a slock's daily historical bar chan and isolating high probability day trades by analyzing yesterday's price bar. In some cases the past 2 or 3 daily bars will also be part of the setup. Knowing in advance which stocks have these setups prepares you to react quickly once the market opens. These trades are geared primarily for entering soon after the morning bell rings as price chooses its direction. You will not be "predicting" the stock's directio~. Instead, you'll be reactiml to the price movement depending on where the stock opens today in relation to yesterday's price bar. Three primary setups are presented, Sever~1 scenarios are depicted that yield "high-odds" trades.
WIR BAR, EXTREME CLOSE This is a bar that has a Wide Range (from high to low) and also closes at or verY near its high or low of the day. You can pick each of these out relatively easily just by comparing its size to the average bar size on the slock's daily historical chan. Often these days are followed by I or more days of strong price movement providing a good day trading opportunity. Here is how this basic setup looks:
I I
I
I
II
1
I
I-
.he close;,,, .he lUgh and the bar has 3. \v1de range
.
~-'
This is the same principle when inverted:
1
Bars which open at the low and close at the high (or vice versa) are the strongest setups. There are 4 trade setups that depend on where the slock opens the next day in relation to the close of the WfR bar. The first 2 setups have rather clear cut entry rules. The other 2 setups can be a bit trickier during the first 10 - IS minutes of trading. These second 2 setups are described in more detail and also offer an alternative entry point based on the 5 minute bar chart.
The first setup is for an open sli2htlv above the high of the W/R bar. =19-:\ is a buy setu!' (followed by the sell setup). On this type of open, price often swings down toward the high of the previous W/R day initially. This should happen quickly with price immediately reversing back upwards through the morning's current high. Buy the breakout of the high if this scenario plays out within the first 15 minutes of trading.
"-
19-A) ,.
lhis must be the initial swing down off the open within the first few minutes of trading
Ihen buy the breakoul of this day·s current high since the opening gap has been filled
Sell setup:
~
---
initial s\\ing up
- - - - sell breakout of this day' s current low
The above trade is even better if the stock has an established daily trend. You increase the odds of this trade when you are trading in the direction of the longer term trend.
The second setup, 19-B, is a substantial gap up on the open. If it moves down at all, consider quickly selling it shon. ..~.
19-B)
quiddv sell this substantial gap (3-5% + ofstock's price) if it moves'down - OR': if the stock makes a fast and "try small swing up off the open and quickly reverses back through the low in the first 5-10 minutes of trading, it can be shoned
The reverse scenario: consider buying this if it moves up at all
There are 2 other setups. One occurs when price opens even with yesterday's close. The other is when price opens slightly below thOe close ofa WfR bar that closed near its high (or price opened slightly above the close of.a WfR bar that closed near its low). These may be played either long or shon depending on several factors. The first consideration is if the WIR day sets up after a strong 3 - 5 day run up in the stock, or if it is the Ist or 2nd day of a strong move up. If it is only the Ist or 2nd day then the tendency is to the buy side on these 2 opening setups. After a 3 - 5 day run up, the tendency leans toward the sell side as a correction is probably due. The converse of this is true with a WIR day that closes at its low. If this is the 1st or 2nd strong day down, then odds favor a continuation of this short tenn price swing. 3 - 5 strong days down and these 2 setups favor a bounce to the long side as a correction. Therefore, a trade setup for early moming entry is provided as well a more conservative entry based on waiting a linle longer into the morning and keying off of the 5 minute bar chart. The other factor to consider is whether you are in the midst of a bull or bear swing in the overall market. This also influences the odds behind which direction the stock is more likely to move. These are the 2 setups with a WfR day that closed near its high: .<
Here are the examples of the 2 setups with a WfR day closing near its low.
On a WfR day where price opens even with yesterday's close, you can consider buying a move up olfthe open.
You may instead want to wait for the stock to move one direction or the other and show consolidation at the current sessibn's high or low for 2 to 3 bars on the 5 minute intraday chan. If the stock has not moved too far in price you can then enter a trade on the consolidated breakout of the high' or low. This is the alternative entry. You may miss some of the price move (or miss it entirely), but it lowers your risk of an early morning fake out. ffyou are convinced the initial move off the open (up or down in this setup) is the direction the Slack will take for the day then you can buy or sell this stock no more than 3/8 points from the open. Remember, also consider the odds of the direction based on what was mentioned earlier. Ask yourself how many days has this stock run up strongly, what is the overall market direction of the last few days, and how is the market index moving on its intraday chart (gap up or down, moving up or down strongly etc.). The last WfR bar sets up when the next day's open is just slightly below the close of the WfR bar up. It is usually a short sell trade, but occasionally may also go long. Do not buy this immediately off the open ifit begins moving up. It will probably meet resistance at yesterday's close or high. If you are convinced that it is going to be a down move and retrace yesterday's bar then you can sell it early in the morning no more than 3/8 points off the open. ffyou are unsure of the true direction, then a more conservative approach is to wait for a few bars of consolidation on the 5 minute chan at the current day's high or low. You could then enter on a breakout in either direction. This is especially true on the buy side since resistance is expected at yesterdays close and high. Preferably the 5 minute consolidation should be at or above yesterday's close and high for buying this stock. Once again look at how many days this stock has run up or down. Also consider the overall market trend daily and intraday #19-0 shows the setup with a WfR bar up . •>
19-D)
consider selling (his open if it moves down 3t 311. look to (he market maker screen for momentum dol'1\.. if the open gaps much lower (ban this then pass the trade up! -OR- wait for (he ahemate later entry \
don't trade an open this far down
The WfR bar down setup:
-I _
don'\trade an open this rar up
/"" consider buying tttis if it moves up -OR· wait for the alternate later entry on the 5 minute chan. esIXCially if you are considering this as 3 shon trade
* NOTE: If you had intraday consolidation into yesterday's close (refer to last example in intraday section of manual) then the WIR setups are much stronger. ffrms is the case then you may wish to take the initial trade e!ltry off the open on the above 4 setups. In these instances you probably will not want to wait for the alternate trade entries later in
bar
the morning.
Although I've mentioned probabilities of the direction to play I to 2 day versus 3 to 5 day price runs with a WIR day, they are simply guidelines. These rules are not set in stone. Sometimes even a 1 day W/R bar will have the next day retrace it. You have to listen (react) to the market and to what the market indexes are telling you about how a stock's W/R day should play out the following day. Once again, this is part of the an of trading. The most important point is that a WIR day is often followed by another day of significant movement where profit may be had. Be sure to rely on the 5 minute charts, and wait for an intraday setup if you are not convinced of the initial move off of the open the next day.
REVERSAL BAR SETUP This 3 bar pattern when completed resembles this: 2
..
0.'
The setup consists of only the first two bars. The key here is I) The close of bar I must be near its low 2) Bar 2's high must not be much above'the low of bar 1 3) Bar 2 must close at or near its high (and preferably have opened near its high as well) 4) Bar I 's high should be 1+ points above the close (or high) of bar 2 to provide a decent profit -- the expectation is for day 3 to anempt to trade up to day l's high Bar 2 thus sets up as a potential reversal bar, and you look for a trade on day 3. If day 3 opens at or near the close of day 2 and begins moving up, this may be a good buy at anytime during the trading session of day 3. At this point the 5 minute intraday bar chart
can play an additional role if you see consolidation and then a breakout to the upside. This way you have 2 time frames working for you at once (daily and intraday). Buy the breakout. The wider the range afbar 1, the better the trade.
Here is setup #20:

DELAYED REVERSAL SETUP This is a variation on the I bar reversal. It is a 4 bar pattern with 3 bars setting up the trade for the fourth day. Day I must close at or near the bottom of that day's range. Day 2 opens at or near the close of day I and continues the prior day's sell off. Day 2 must also close at or near the low of that day's range. Day 3 must open at or near the close of day 2 and retrace back up to (or very near) the high of day 2. Also, day 3 must close at or near its high of the day. If the stock opens on day 4 near the close of day 3 and begins to move up, buy it. The wider the range of bar I, the better the trade. Here is setup #20-A:

So, how do you find these reversal setup of bars? By trading and reviewing charts daily you will learn to pick out possible setups and earmark those stocks in your mind. A daily analysis worksheet is provided later in the manuaL When one of those particular stocks comes across the ticker, you go to that stock's screen and automatically know what you are looking for. If the setup is there, and you're getting a breaKout, consider taking the trade. The sell setup is an inverted reversal pattern. In a buy setup the expectation is that the stock will move up to or near the high of bar 1. In the inverted reversal sell setup you would expect the stock to sell off down to or near the low of bar 1.
SUMMARY Obviously you need to be aware of the 'WfR day" and «reversal" setups before the market opens, and be ready to act quickly when the daily chart and market maker screen tell you
it's "time to trade". Being aware that a stock's longer term trend is up can be imponant when you have a buy setup and vice versa. Also, keeping tabs on the daily and intraday trend of the NASDAQ market index helps. But these are trades you must act on quickly and decisively. The idea is to catch a good magnitude move at the earliest possible point and to get filled at the price you want.
CONCLUSION The 1 to 3 day bar chan patterns are very powerful trades to be aware of. Entry timing and speed are critical. Reviewin~ a list of stocks that currently have these daily trade setups prepares you to react to the market using the highest probability trading patterns. Since they are mostly early morni!1S trades, look to the daily chart and then market maker screen for market entry. The imraday 5 minute bar screen may also be useful this early in the trading day (especially if you are looking for consolidation during the end of the prior day to confirm your trade). How far will a stock move in price once you've entered the market on one of these trade setups (or one of the intraday trade setups from the last section)? This is an imponanl question. Using daily support and resistance areas, trendlines, trend channels, and some other conunon-sense analysis. you can get some idea of how far price might go before the close of the day. Probablv the most significant reason to know this is to keep vou OUI of some apparent "good trade entrY setups" that don't have much room to move. Some actual daily chart examples follow to show the I - 3 daily bar setups and how they appear in actual trading.

LONGER TERM DAILY BAR PATTERNS (for day trading) INTRODUCTION: Most of these price formations take more than just a few days to form up on the historical daily bar chart. They usually reflect price consolidation or a narrowing of daily price range. Many times these patterns will be followed by a day that breaks out strongly in one direction or the other. When you see one of these formations developing, catalog that stock in the back of your mind. If the day comes when price does make the breakout move, you'll be there for a potential day tr!lde. Using intraday price panerns in conjunction with this longer time frame can increase your odds for a good trade entry. Trading in the direction of the stock's trend and the overall market trend (daily and intraday) enhances the success of these trades.
WEDGE A wedge is a contraction in a stock's daily range. Each day will typically have a narrower range as it completes a shape that looks like a «wedge". This compression in price over the course of several days to a couple of weeks may be followed by a strong breakout day. A wedge will look similar to this:

.. \ consider buying or selling the breakout of the dotted lines
..•'
A wedge does not have to be exactly symmetrical. It may be tilted to one side or the other. For example:

JII"
........
~tial buy breakout
The flag is similar to the wedge in that it is a consolidation pattern. UsuaJly a flag forms after a strong run up or down in a stock. After this strong movement which can last several days, the stock takes a breather and may tend to trade sideways. This is where a flag will often form on the daily chart. It should look something like this:
22)
flag
The flag will usually have a relatively tight formation and smaller daily trading ranges. Typically a strong breakout will occur in the direction of the earlier trend. This is especially important if the flag forms at or near a recent or long term high for the stock. The upper boundary of the flag serves as price resistance. and the lower boundary is support. A price breakout in either direction may be a good trade entry. especially when paired with anaJysis from the I to 3 day bar, and/or intraday trade setups(consolidation).
CONSOLlDATION OF DAIL Y HIGHS OR LOWS If you have 3 - 5 + daily highs or lows clustered together at the same price (daily consolidation) then you have the potential for a breakout day trade. Here is how it might ..•' look for a buy setup:
23) :
. . . 111111----
buy the breakout 10 the upside
Be ready for a breakout to the long side for a strong inlraday run up in price. The inverse pattern works for the downside sell setup. These often make for some very strong day trade moves.
NEW HIGHS I LOWS New highs and lows are important to watch for. This is signifying strength or weakness in
a stock. The most significant are all time highs and 52 week highs or lows. Ifyou find a stock that is trading very near one of these areas (especially if you have several daily bars of consolidation), be ready for a day that may break through and run. Also, shorter term (6 to 8 week) new highs or lows can provide a substantial day trade or swing trade (several day) opponunity. These stocks may be traded on the actual day of the breakout or on the following day(s). Again. look at the 1 to 3 bar and intraday setups to determine when and where to enter. The reason these work is that price is breaking through a significant and natural price support or resistance area. Other traders and fund managers also monitor and trade these longer term breakouts. This adds extra follow through and offers opponunities for day trading.
One variation on the new high or low setup tends to be an especial1y strong pattern. When a stock first breaks out to a new high of the past several months, sometimes it will pull back slightly and trade sideways from several days to a week or two. Often you will see a consolidation type of pattern as it is preparing to challenge the new high again. On the day the stock breaks out to penetrate the prior high, you will usually see very heavy buying come into the stock that may drive it up several points. If today appears to be the day of the breakout, rely on your daily and intraday setups to enter the trade. SUMMARY: The longer tenn daily chan patterns help you to recognize consolidation patterns that lead to good breakout day trades. Also recognizing when you are in sideways price congestion will keep you from trading a stock while it is choppy and less predictable. Don't use these setups to blindly fire off a trade. Rather, use them to alen you to monitor the stock for a price breakout and thus a high probability trade. At that point go to your 1 to 3 day and intraday analysis to time your entry. Trading with the trend in these instances' increases your odds of success. Be aware of the overall market indexes; you'll want them on your side as welL CONCLUSION: You've seen how to recognize and anticipate high probability trading patterns in several time frames. Putting them all together only increases the odds of a successful trade. Trading with the stock's trend and with the market direction (both daily and intraday) only enhances your win rate. Time your entry with the momentum on the market maker screen, and enter the market at the price you want. But remember, it is better to miss a good trade than to get a poor fill and subsequently lose $$$S. There will always be another good trade setup. so wait for it and take only the best trades.

SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE (SIR)
SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE Know where the price support and resistance areas are on a chart. These are areas that have halted the movement of the stock in the past. The more times a particular price has stalled the stock's movement, the stronger that support or resistance area becomes. Price support lines can be drawn horizontally through lows on a bar chan where price tended to bounce up. Thus this price level is "supporting" the stock. Price resistance lines can be drawn horizontally through highs on a chart which the stock resists moving up through. Very often you will tind that a support area which the stock penetrates to the downside will become a resistance area in the futur~. And likewise, a resistance area that a stock finally penetrates to the upside becomes a support area in the future. The daily chart's support and resistance areas will help you better decide whether a trade setup is worth entering. If there is a lot of resistance just above where you would buy the stock., then you may want to pass up the trade. On the other hand, if a price resistance area is being broken or has recently been broken through to the upside, a buy trade setup has a bener chance of success with the stock moving up further. Look for these areas on the daily and intraday charts to find the nearest upside resistance level up if you are buying or the next support level down uyou are selling. lfthere is enough room for a I + point move, you have enhanced the odds for a successful day trade. AJso, if the daily chan shows good support at a price level, and you have a '"wide range bar w/extreme close" or a "reversal bar" setup long that held at a price support area, then this might present a strong buying opportunity. Remember not to impose your ideas on the market, but instead react to what it tells you with the daily and intraday setup patterns. The SIR levels will help you find the best trades to enter. "Trading congestion" is something to stay away from. If a stock is not trending, has narrow range daily bars (from high to low), or is just chopping sideways, then avoid it. Wait until it breaks out of congestion and begins some good daily price swing activity. This is when you look for the trade setups to act upon. AJoo, look at the recent average range of a daily price bar (from high to low). If that stock doesn't trade over' a poim or more on a regular basis then you probably won't want to trade it. Look for the bigger profit opportunities with stocks that are currently in a «trader-friendly" mode. You'O also notice that many times the 50 and 200 day moving averages act as price support and resistance. This is because many fund managers monitor these averages and use them in their buying and selling decisions. Being aware of where these lines are can aid your analysis. This is especially true if a stock has traded up or down to one of these averages at a point which also coincides with a price support or resistance level. Support and resistance levels aid your decision making for day trades. They show how far a stock can be expected to move up or down on both an intraday and daily time frame. This is the final step (or filter) to confinn a potential trade, or to rule it out.

MARKET MAKER T.O.S. AND
TICKER SCREENS
MARKET :VIAKER AND T.O.S. SCREENS
INTRODUCTION: This section describes the «market maker" and "time of sale" (T.O-S.) screens as well as the stock "ticker" screen. The market maker screen will help with 2 things: 1) To detennine which stocks you are willing to trade, and therefore which slocks you want as part of the ticker of slocks that you follow 2) To aid in timing the best moment for·entering and exiting trades that are described in the 5 minute and daily bar chart setups. The time of sale (T.O.S.) screen is used in conjunction with the market maker screen for timing trade entry and exit. The ''ticker'' is the screen loaded with the stocks you have chosen to follow. This is the screen that immediately shows if a market maker has changed his bid up or down for one of your stocks as well as when the inside bid or offer has changed and whether it was up or down in price. You will have your market maker, 1.0.S., daily chart and 5 minute chart screens all linked together so that when you type in a stock symbol, all of this information for that particular slock immediately pops up on your computer monitor. By watching the ticker scroll along. you are immediately alerted to a stock's uptick or downtick (usually color coded) and can then quickly type in the stock symbol to access the market maker, T.O.S, daily and 5 minute bar infonnation. These are the 4 screens that are used in conjunction to find the price pattern setups and to time your trade entry and exits.
MARKET MAKER SCREEN This screen shows you the current "inside" bid and offer (or as~) price for a stock. It also shows you how many market makers are bidding and offering at each price level. You will see the other bid/offer price levels as well The difference between the bid and ask price is known as the "spread". You will be looking for stocks that regularly have lI8 spreads. Some lI4 spread stocks may also be tradable. Also, you want the number of market makers at each price level to typically be 4 or more. The more "depth" per price level, the safer that stock is to trade. Avoid stocks with 1 - 3 market makers per price level. These thin price levels can quickly cost you much more than a lI4 loss if you are wrong about the trade.
,. Before entering a stock long or short ask younelf this question: "If the market immediately revenes against me when I enter the trade, what is my probable exit price?" This means if you buy the inside ask on a stock to go long. look at the price and depth on the bid side to determine where you are likely to get filled if you have to exit the trade right away. Ifit is for more than 1/4 point (or in some cases 3/8) loss, then pass up [hat trade serop. Another one will come along later. Each stock has its own personality with how the market maker screen moves.
TOS SCREEN This screen shows actual trades.' the time, the # of shares and the price. If you have a trade panern setup, look at the T.O.S. screen flow of orders to see if they are being filled at the bid or at the ask. If you are set up for a trade to the long side, look for trades coming through at the inside ask price of the market maker screen to help you time your entry. Also, the inside price level of market makers will start [0 move up. This is especially true if you see 1000 lot trades coming through the T.O.S. screen. These are other computer day traders that are buying the stock and help assist the momentum into the upside move. The reverse scenano is true of a downside move. Together the market maker and time of sale screens are fundamental to help you time your entries and exits for the best trade setups. Only actual experience will enable you to hone this ability. This is why "paper trading" is very imponant initially. But remember. the actual timing is learned when you begin "live" trading. This is why I recommend using only 500 share trades when you first start with real money. 500 shares cuts your "'tuition" in half as you first learn the typical fill time and price for each stock under varying market circumstances. 'Live" trading is very different from paper trading when it comes to actual entries and exits (and actual dollars won or lost). Have the "big 4": the market maker, T.O.S., daily, and 5 minute"Screens viewed together on your computer monitor for each stock that you type into your keyboard. This will provide all of the infonnation needed to execute and manage the best trades.
TICKER This is the screen which contains your collection of stocks that scroll through with any bid or ask adjustments up or down by a market maker. It also shows when the inside bid or ask has changed. As mentioned earlier. your group of stocks are chosen based on several factors. Look for average volume of at least 100,000 shares per day. These stocks should have only 1/8 point (and occasionally 1/4) bid/ask spreads on the market maker screen. In addition, the market maker screen should typically have an average of at least 4+ market makers per price level. Also, consider the daily and 5 minute charts to see if the stock
provides the daily and intraday price setups from this manual which regularly follow through with the setup's trade expectations. Look for stocks that often show good daily price range or movement on a regular basis. This means setups with an opportunity of a I+ point move during the day. Your ticker may contain as many stocks as you can reasonably follow. That may mean 60, 1SO, or 200+ stocks. Be aware that each stock does have its own price movement and market makerff.O.S. screen personality. Be aware that each stock tends to cycle in and out of a ''trader-friendly'' mode. You can always add or delete stocks from your ticker to keep it updated.
SUMMARY Tying together the daily and intraday price pattern setups with the learned timing of the market maker and T.O.S. screens are essential to your success. Leave one component out and you reduce your odds for even the best price pattern setups. Only through experience with your universe of stocks wlll you improve your bottom line. This is the art to trading.
CO ClUSION Now that you have the price pattern setups paired with the timing principles in this section, you possess the fundamentals for day trading. The next few pages show market maker screens for both «good" stocks as well as higher risk stocks. These examples are labeled to help you get a better understanding of the basic elements that you are looking for in a tradable stock.

SWING TRADES Trades lasting from 2 to 5 + days
SWING TRADING (trade setups for 2 to 5 day holds)
rNTRODUCTIO : "Swing trades" in this case refers 10 trades that will typically las1 from 2 to 5 days. You should be looking to take several points of profit out of the market with each trade. Since holding overnight can be risky, you may wish to hold fewer shares. If you normally day trade 1000 shares at a time, consider trading only 200 to 500 shares on these setups. This limits your loss potential if after-market ~ews on the company causes it to gap open against you. Fewer shares also allow you to use a wider slop-loss (typically I to 1&114 points) so that you don't get hurt. This also allows more room for price to move around without stopping you Qut of a good trade. As the stock .moves in your favor you can trail the stop-loss anywhere from I to 1 & 1/2 points behind it. At some point the stock may trade in your favor to a price level where you want to go ahead and take your profit. Some reasonable eX-it points are a price support or resistance level, the other side of the channel on a trend channel trade, or if you get a daily "reversal bar" setup counter to the trade direction. Your risk/reward ratio should be good (i.e. I to 3 or better). In other words, take the best setups that have the potential to give you 3 to 5 + points. This way you are risking just a few hundred dollars for a profit of I to 2 thousand dollars (and sometimes more). Trade these setups along with your regular day trading to add SSS to the bottom line. A worksheet of potential setups is provided later in the manual. It includes both a day trade and swing trade section for your analysis and stock picks for the upcoming trading day.
TREND CHANNEL (and trendlines) A trend channel (for an up trending stock) is constructed by drawing a trendline through or very near 2 or more swing lows on a daily bar chan. If a line parallel to the initial trendline can be drawn through at least 2 swing highs on the chart then you have a trend channel (ex. #23). The tighter and more defined the channel is, the better. A stock often continues to trade within the channel if the trendlines are projected into the future on the chan. In an up trend you can buy subsequent dips down to the bottom of the trend channel. Using confirming factors increase the odds of success. For instance, if the dip to the bottom of the trend channel also coincides with a bounce on the 50 day moving average, and I or a bounce on a price support level, and I or you get a "reversal bar" pattern setup to buy. then the odds are stacked strongly in your favor. In a downtrend channel you would sell price rallies at the upper trendline. After entry, expectations are for price to attempt to trade to the other side of the trend channel. Near this area may be a good place to take your profits. Actual examples are presented later, but an up trending channel should look like the diagram at the top of the next page:

1-2 MONTH BREAKOUTS If a stock enters into a relatively tight trading range for 1-2 months, be prepared for a breakout to the upside. This is especially true if the prior trend was up, and you are in a bull market environment. The breakout day should close above the highest high of [he consolidation range and trade on heavier than average volume. You should expect a several day follow-through in the direction of the breakout. This trade setup is even stronger if the stock price recently bounced up off of the 50 day moving average. A.lso. if the top side of the price range has a well defined resistance area, then the penetration to the upside will often be even more dramatic. This is a rough sketch of what the setup should look like. Actual examples will be provided later.

CUP WI HANDLE This name was coined by the founder of Investor's Business Daily, William 0' eil. The chan pattern resembles the profile ofa coffee cup. The cup pan of the pattern can last anywhere from several weeks to several months. The stock initially pUIS in an intermediate term price high, then begins selling off. After a while, buying comes back into the market pushing price up to, or very near, the earlier intermediate term high. This completes the right side of the cup. At this point the stock sells off again only slightly, trading sideways to down. It then trades back up to the right edge of the cup pattern to complete the handle. Be looking for a day that breaks out oftbe horizontal resistance area across the top of the cup and handle. This breakout begins an often substantial move up in price. Also keep an eye on volume. The'setup is stronger if volume tends to decrease when price is selling offand increase when price is rallying. Here is a diagram of how price might look. Actual examples are included later.

50 & 200 DAY SIMPLE MOVlNG AVERAGES Many times the 50 and 200 day moving averages will tend to halt price. As mentioned earlier, fund managers key off of these indicators. This is where the "big money" can come into the market and affect price. If a stock is trading above the 50 day moving average and is selling off, often it will bounce up off of the moving average line (and vice versa). Conversely, a stock that has a day which strongly penetrates up or down through one of the moving averages typically follows through in that direction, at least for the short term (several days or longer). Knowing where the 50 and 200 day lines are for stocks that have trade setups can only help. It may be just one other confirming reason to take the trade, or it may help rule the trade out.
A CURRENTL Y PROFIT ABLE DAY TRADE As you near the end of a trading session you may have one or more open day trades with
profit in them. Before closing them out, evaluate each of them to see if they have a strong chance of continuing their move for several more points over the course of a few days. Lf so, then consider selling only 700 of your IOOO shares to book the bulk of the profit. This puts money in your pocket but also allows you to participate in more of the price mO\"e.
SUMMARY These setups for multiple day traaes should be considered separate from your day trading.. Sometimes, if you are taking loss~s in your day trades, you may want to cash in an open and profitable swing trade. Resist the temptation. Let the swing trades stand on their own, and manage them that way. In the long run this will only add to your income. NOTE OF CAUTION: Although day trading can be risky, holding stocks overnight can be even more so for a short term trader. A 10 or 20+ point gap against you on the open just once, can really ruin a day, or a week, or a month. Trade only as many shares as you are comfortable wi.th. Always be aware of any upcoming news or earnings on a stock that you are holding for more than one day. Also, know when economic data is being released or when the Fed meets etc... they can cause significant market gaps that may go against your position.
CONCLUSION You've seen how to recognize and anticipate high probability trading patterns in several time frames. Putting them all together only increases the odds of a successful trade. Trading with the stock's trend and with the market direction (both daily and intraday) only enhances your win rate. But remember, it is better to miss a good trade than to get a poor fill and subsequently lose S$S$. There wi.ll always be another good trade setup, so \vait for it and take only the best trades.
CHART EXAMPLES for DAY TRADING and SWING TRADING
The following daily charts provide numerous examples of labeled trade setups from both the "Day trading" section and the "Swing trading" section of the manual. Suppa" and Resistance (SIR) levels are included as well as commentary. This will help tie together the trading concepts in the manual. A worksheet analysis section is provided subsequent to the charts.

EXTRA TIPS AND TRADING IDEAS This is simply a collection of a few other price pattern setups to watch for. Also, some additional tips about day trading are described to bolster your ability to find other trading opportunities to exploit.
I) This is a 5 minute bar chart pattern that plays out within the first hour of trading and works especially well to the short side if the market index begins a strong. fast. morning sell-off. Also, if the market index gaps up strongly on the open and then begins a strong sell-off, this pattern can work even bener. 'fhis setup is not as solid as a consolidation I breakout trade, but it may be considered. Look to the daily chart to make sure the stock is not in congestion and that there are no nearby price support levels that may halt the downward move.

2) This is a 5 minute bar consolidation at the high of today that is also the high of yesterday. Although shown earlier on some chart examples, I am emphasizing this setup because of its strength. The sell setup is consolidation at the low of today that is also the low of yesterday. Here is an example of a buy setup:

The above diagram was a daily reversal sell bar off of prior price resistance. The converse of the diagram would be true for a daily reversal buy setup that bounced off of a prior price support level.
4) If a stock has had a strong, quick run up on the daily chart (usually with some wide range days). it then may have several smaller range days that have successively lower lows with closes at or near their lows. When you see this be ready for a strong sell-off day.

6) Time of dav - The best times of the day to trade are between 8:30 a.m. to 11 :00 a.m. and I:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. central standard time. This is when you have more volume and follow-through for the price setups in this manual. Trading primarily during these times enhances the odds ofa successful trade. The middle of the day is often illiquid and the trade setups tend to not follow through as well.
7) Round price numbers - This refers to whole numbers like 33. 42. 17. etc. Price sometimes has a tendency to stall at round numbers. If you have consolidation at a round number that then breaks out beyond that price. you tend to see more foHow-through. Of more importance are the tens such as 20, 40. 70 etc. Even more significant round numbers to be aware of are 50 and 100. These numbers tend to halt price, or if penetrated, price tends to follow through in the direction of the penetration. This is an added nuance to help with your day trading entry and exit decisions.
8) Price targets - Price targets are prices where you may want to go ahead and take profits as opposed to using the «wiggle". An example was shown in the I to 3 daily bar setups covering the reversal bar pattern. In the buy setup, if price reached the high of the first day of the setup then you might want to take your profits, Another example is if you have a good profit in a stock. and it has reached a daily support or resistance area. You may choose to "cut" out of the stock since it may not surpass the support or resistance price level. A third example is when you get a strong.. fast price "spike" out of consolidation on the 5 minute bar chart that moves 3/4 point or more. This is especially true if this takes place during the middle of the day. Often price will retrace more than the standard wiggle and stop you out for only a small profit or at break-even. Consider taking profit when a spike has stalled after a breakout. NOTE: This is not an excuse to avoid using the wiggle. This refers only to price spikes of roughly I point or more that take place within 5 to 10 minutes after the breakout. In most trades it is best to use the wiggle and be quick to take a loss and slow to take a profit.
9) Relative strength - If the overall market sells offstrongiy intraday.look for stocks that did not sell off with the market. They have strong «relative strength" when compared. to the market, If the market begins to rally. these will be good buy candidates, look for a price pattern setup before entering. They will usually provide a good move up. The same is true if the market is moving up strongiy and a stock stays at its low for the day. If the market begins to sell off. that stock has even higher odds of success as a short candidate. Make sure to enter any of these trades on a price pattern setup using the 5 minute bar chart.
to) Bad price fills I Mistakes - If you accidentally get filled at a price beyond what you wanted. or you immediately realize that you made a trade that wasn't based on a good setup (a mistake) then immediately exit the position at the best price that you can get. it is better to take the small loss on a trade that does not have the odds of success behind it. If you wait and hope, it will usually cost you a bigger loss. Solve the problem by exiting the trade and then move on.
11) Paper trading. If you are just beginning to trade, or if you are having a confidence problem with your trading, don't risk real money. Take time to trade and manage your positions as if you were trading, but don't actually trade your account. "Paper trading" will provide the learning ground and give you confidence in the trading methodology as well as confidence in your trading decisions. If you are a beginning trader I recommend at least 3 to 4 weeks of paper trading. This helps you learn the method. gain confidence in its success, and learn the personalities of each individual slOck that you follow on your ticker.
12) «Trader-friendly" stocks - Remember that each individual stock cycles in and out of times when it can be traded successfully. !t may trade well with this methodology for 2 weeks and then start to behave more erratically, usually going into a price congestion period. Be aware of when this begins to happen, and avoid that stock until it rotates back into a ''trader-friendly'' mode.
13) News and repons - Anytime a significant repon comes out during the day that can affect the stock market, it is best to stand aside and let the dust settle after the initial burst of trading activity. It is hard to make money offofrepons and company news. Let the market digest the new infonnation and choose a direction, then look for price pattern setups to hop aboard for a safer ride.

SCALPING MODULE A SUPPLEMENT TO
STOCK PATTERNS FOR
DAY TRADING AND
SWING TRADING
Barry Rudd
SCALPING METHODOLOGY As a day trader, scalping simply means you are looking for a quic~ small profit in a stock. Usually, you are attempting to make 118 point profit (and sometimes more) within a few seconds or a minute or two. Therefore, you want a momentum surge in a stock's price that you can hop on board for a quick and profitable ride. During the day most price movement in a stock is random noise. The majority of moves do not provide enough follow.through in one direction to be profitably traded. So, how do you isolate and predict the strong "price spikes" from the regular ebb and flow of price? The answer lies in intraday price "compression". This can easily be seen on a 5 minute bar chart graph as it unfolds during the trading session. When'a stock begins to trade in a very tight range (called consolidation) at the day's current high or low, a potential trade "setup" may be unfolding. To funher screen these price panern setups, two other criteria are applied to filter out only the highest probability trades. First: The consolidation on the 5 minute chart must be hugging up against the current high of the day for a long trade, or hU2ging down against the current low of the day for a short trade. Second: The consolidation should last for at least 20 - 30 minutes and preferably longer (the longer, the bener). Ibis compression builds up like a pressure cooker, and when the stock breaks [0 a new high or low, you usually get a strong, quick follow-through move in price, i.e. a "price spike". By watching these trades set up during the day you are ready to be one of the first traders to enter the stock at the best price and at the very beginning of a highly reliable momentum surge. Once you are filled, you immediately bid or offer out for a profit while the momentum is still continuing. Often these trades will move far enough where you can get 1/4 or 3/8 point.. .and even more. The key to exiting is not to be too greedy or wait too long, because once the momentum begins to slow or stops, your bid or offer is less likely to be filled. Also, if the trade does not follow through like you expected, be ready to buy or sell at break·even if that price is available to you. If momentum has stopped and you haven't been filled on your bid or offer, exit the trade. It is better to take a "flat" than wait for the stock to reverse and hand you a 118 point loss or worse. When commissions are factored in, you realize that to be profitable you must risk no more than a 1/8 point loss on any given trade and be ready to exit flat if you are wrong. Also, you must have a high percentage of winning to losing trades to be net profitable. That is why you must rely upon the trade setups in this module. You must time your entries at the price just prior to the breakout if a breakout move seems imminent as you monitor the activity on the "market maker" and ''time and sales" screens. You may also wish to enter one price level later, the actual breakout price. [f you do not get your price then pass up the trade. There will be other good setups later. A good characteristic of the "compression / price spike" is that opponunities of profits beyond 1/8 point present themselves more frequently than with other scalping methods. Sometimes the stock will move so quickly after you enter, that by the time it takes you to
put out your bid or offer you are already looking at a 3/8 point move and probable 3/8 point profit. These "windfall" scalps. although infrequent, can sometimes :-ield even a 1-1point profit with just one trade. Since you need to keep your maximum loss per trade to 1/8 point you must trade only stocks that typically have a 1/8 point bid / ask spread. This way if you are wrong and the trade immediately goes against yOll, only 1/8 point is lost. Usually 1000 shares are traded. If you want to trade some 1/4 point spread stocks that tend to have very strong moves out of the setups presented in this manual, then you can drop the nwnber of shares you trade to 500 and look for at least a 1/4 point profit. Either way you risk no more than S125 per trade with the expectation of at least a S125 profit before commissions. lfyou buy a stock using a trade setup, you then offer out that stock usually on Selectnet. You may also offer out using [nstinet or one of the other E.C.N.'s through your brokerage finn. Conversely, if you shon a stock tben you bid out into the momentum for a profit. Don't necessarily limit yourself to 1/8 point increments. 1/16 point increments can be used to increase the profit ofa trade or decrease the loss if you are wrong. Every 1/16 point makes a $62.50 difference. Over time these can add up to more profits. The intraday section in this module covers the main setups that you will be trading based on the 5 minute bar chan. It is very similar to the corresponding section from the "Stock Patterns" manual but is the core of your scalp trading setups. Therefore it is included in this scalping module with some changes tailored to scalping versus il1traday trend trading. Remember, never risk any more than S 125 per trade with any setup when scalping. This includes trades based on the 5 minute bar chan setups and on the daily bar chan setups covered in the "Stock Panerns" manual. Those «1 to 3 daily bar setups" and the "longer tenn daily bar setups" can also be scalped early in the trading session. You may wish to decrease your lot size from 1000 shares to 500 to minimize risk on tbose trades due to early morning volatility. The daily bar chart is often referenced even when using the 5 minute bar chart for your primary setups and trade entries. This is because it is important to be aware of the daily bar chan's price support and resistance areas even when scalping. If you have a buy setup on the 5 minute chan but also see nearby price resistance just above on the daily chart. then the strength of the price spike may be lessened (vice versa with daily bar chan support on the sell setups). On the other hand if a buy setup on the 5 minute chart is hugging the same price as the resistance level on a daily chart (or is above daily resistance) then there is more room for the stock to move up on a breakout with a strong price spike. The converse is true with support levels when shorting a stock. The "Stock Patterns" manual covers the "market maker" and "time and sales" screen with examples. This wiU help you pick the appropriate stocks you'll track on your "ticker" for scalping. The 10 commandments of trading for scalpers is different from the "Stock Patterns" manual and gives you a roadmap to help you manage your trading. With scalping. mental
discipline will be the biggest factor in your success or failure. Finally, since the 5 minute bar chart setups are the core oftms scalping method. actual chart examples are provided at the end oftms module. You can also refer back to the 5 minute bar chart examples in the "Stock Patterns" manual at the end of the "intraday setups" section for more nuances as to how these patterns set up and play out in actual trading. You will see some overlap and duplication of this scalping module with the main "Stock Patterns" manual. This is because the trade setups and entries are exactlv the same. The primary difference is how you subsequently manage your exit from the trade. While the "Stock Patterns" manual is based on intraday trend trading, the scalping module is based on exiting quickly with smaller, high-probability profits derived from the price spikes seen primarily on the 5 minute bar cfiart setups. The primary manual and scalping module are designed to dovetail with each other to enhance your trading options while maintaining the same trade entry methodology. You therefore are provided two different day trading approaches: The "Stock Pattern" manual's intraday trend trading as well as the scalping approach which is presented in this module. This is important because you will find either one style or the other tends to fit your personality as a trader. Choose what works best for you and stick with it. At the same time. each style lends itself to two different market conditions. If you are able to determine early in a trading session whether you are in an intraday trending market, or rather in a choppy market. you can then trade the appropriate style that best fits current market conditions. Knowledge of both styles gives you an edge. Resist the temptation to create a hybrid of the two approaches~ it is best to trade either one or the other. Remember, don't impose your will on the market. Instead, react to what the market is telling you. A consistent methodology yields consistent results which equals SSSS in your account.
WHY USE PRICE BAR CHARTS TO SCALP Price bar charts paint a graphic picture ofa slock's price movements both during the day with the 5 minute bars, and longer tenn with the daily bars. The picture unfolds showing short and long tenn supply and demand and how it has moved the stock's price. This helps pinpoint specific areas of buying or selling pressure as they develop. The bar chans alert you to this «at a glance" when the bars trade into a tight range that hugs up or down against a certain price (usually the day's current high or low). This consolidation creates a price "compression" point where pressure builds and is finally released when the price level that held the stock is penetrated. USl}ally this penetration is a strong and quick "price spike" that offers great scalping potential of 1/8 point or more. By monitoring different stock chans throughout the day, a trader can quickly identify these scalping pattern setups. Since the trader knows which stocks are currently setting up for a price spike, he or she has the edge of catching a strong price move as it begins and then bidding or offering out into the momentum as other traders rush in to participate in the price move. The advantages of using a daily bar chart in conjunction with the 5 minute bar chaIt were covered at the end of the prior section on methodology. Using the 5 minute bar chart gives you an edge over other market participants in 3 ways:
•
It allows you to follow more than just a very few Slocks which must be micromanaged. With more slocks on your ticker, more scalping opportunities are uncovered and therefore more potential profits are available.
•
The specific price bar setups in the "Stock Patterns" manual and in the scalping module make sure you are entering the stock at the beginning of the momentum surge. This leads to a higher success rate per trade and a larger average profit per trade.
•
Since these price pattern setups reflect compression built up against the day's current high or low, the breakout is a very high-odds trade. The success rate ofa price spike out of these setups far exceeds the random movements ("noise") back and forth in price throughout most of the day.
Without charts you are only looking at a snapshot of price in time. So much more can be seen with charts to give you an edge. Trading without charts is like flying blind, even when scalping!
TERMS AND DEFINITIONS • Some tenns overlap with the "Stock Patterns" manual in this scalping module. but also some additional definitions are provided related to scalping, DA Y TRADE - Refers to entering and exiting a stock on the same day, typically using 1000 shares. DAILY BAR CHART - A daily bar shows the open, high, low. and close ofa day's trading activity for a slock. INTRADAY BAR CHART - An intraday bar chart shows a slock's price movement during the day. usually with 5 minute bars. SUPPORT & RESISTANCE - (also referred to as "SIR") Price suppon and resistance are areas on a chan that have halted past price movement. A suppan area tends to halt downward price action, and resistance often halts upward price movement. You can visually see these on both daily and imraday bar charts. It may help to draw a horizontal line through these areas. The significance of support and resistance is to determine if a potential trade setup has enough room to give you a reasonable profit before the stock stalls at one of these SIR areas. AJso, a penetration up through a resistance area may open the door for follow-through in the stock's upward movement. Conversely, a penetration down through a support area may then enable the stock to more easily continue its downward movement. CONSOLIDATION (daily and intraday) - [s when the stock trades in a tight, well defined price range for more than a few price bars. Consolidation can be seen on both the intraday and daily time frames simply by looking at the chan. On an intraday basis, consolidation at the high of the day or at the low of the day can be a potential setup to enter a trade on the breakout to new highs or lows. Price "congestion" is somewhat different and applies primarily to the daily chart. Usually it is best not to trade a stock while it is congested (i.e., has a lot of daily bars clustered together side by side without a well defined support or resistance area). This is characteristic of choppy price movement. Wait for the stock to break out of a congestion area and begin moving before you trade it PRICE "CONGESTION" - This is when a stock trades in a sideways, choppy marmer without a definite direction or trend. It can easily be seen on a daily chan. Avoid trading stocks while they are in this mode. Wait for the price to move out of the congestion area or until it has a good consolidation type breakout serup as described in the price setup patterns of this manual. BREAKOUT - Consider a stock that has consolidated against a price level for several bars (especially on the 5 minute chan). The point where it breaks beyond that price level is called the "breakout" and often is the beginning of a shon to intermediate term move in the direction of the breakout.
FILL-PRICE - When you put an order out to buy or sell a stock, the actual price at which it is ex.ecuted is called the «fill-price". STOP-LOSS - This is your mental exit price from a trade that you have entered. It is initially 1/8 point from your actual «fill-price" when you have taken a long or short position in a stock. If the stock moves against you, you exit the trade and are said to be «stopped out" for a loss. Strictly adhere to your stop-loss. It is an integral pan of money management. SCALPING - Scalping is the style of trading hased on taking small, quick profits. Ifa stock has a momentum surge in price, the' trader quickly buys or sells in the direction of the price movement. He or she then puts out a bid or offer anywhere from 1/16 to 1/4 point (and sometimes more) from the fill price before the momentum surge slows. Hopefully their bid or offer is taken and a quick profit made on the 1000 share trade. A scalp trade will typically last from just a few seconds to several minutes. To make a decent profit scalping requires a high success rate per trade and strict money management. FLAT - Exiting a trade at break-even (less commissions and fees). PRICE SPlKE - A strong. quick move up or down in price, usually occurring out of consolidation on the price bar chart. BIDDfNG -lfa trader is bidding, he or she is trying to buy a stock at a specific price which he or she chooses. Market makers and/or other market participants can then see the trader's bid to buy a specLfied number of shares. A bid is usually used to exit a short trade while the stock's momentum is still continuing down. OFFERING - If a trader is offering, he or she is trying to sell a stock at a specific price which he or she chooses. Market makers and/or other market participants can then see the trader's offer to sell a specified number of shares. An offer is usually used to exit a long trade while the stock's momentum is still continuing up.
INTRADAY TRADING PATTERNS (for day trading scalps)
INTRODUCTION: This section covers the day trade setups using 5 minute bar chans. They provide the best scalping potential from "compression" followed by «price spikes". You will almost alwavs be buYing and selling breakouts of the current day's high or low based primarily on bar chan panern setups. Momentum of price movement will be the key to timing the entry. Momentum can be seen with action on the f1}3fket maker screen and lime of sale screen. Recognizing the best setup panern is the key to entering the highest probability trade. We will present the most consistent trade setups and where to enter long or shan with diagrams. Other secondary trades which may also be taken under certain circumstances will be graphically analyzed and explained. Remember. although these rules are not set in stone, they provide the foundation of a strong, high probability methodology for choosing profitable trades. Vertical dotted lines represent the stan of the day, horizontal dotted lines show support and resistance areas as well as consolidation boundaries. It
Most examples show buy setups. Sell setups are the same, just inverted.

The longer and tighter the consolidation. the better. This is a setup that develops through the day. Another more obvious pattern looks like this:
2)
.lprrIIrrr~,rl~ buy the breakoul :
the narrower the range from high to low. the bener the trade. notice: how price tends to hug
the upp;:;r price boundary
Another intraday consolidation pattern that you may see looks a bit different but it can also be a powerful setup: 3) buy the breakouL especially since the
price tends to hug the upper bounda~'. a breakout trade to the downside may also be okay if it is a tight range
In the above setup #3, an active stock can show a deceptively illiquid intraday bar chart. The key to this chart pattern is to make sure the stock averages good volume on a daily basis (Le. lOOk shares +), and that the daily bar chart shows good room for movement to the upside with nearby price resistance. You can also keep tabs on its volume in the market maker screen.
The next chart is another common example leading to consolidation and a good breakout trade:
4)
. :I
III
. I r I r, r IT, n rnn k I' ,II \ . ~ the breakout here
eyen bette< due to longer consohdatlon IS
a breakout here IS okay
Early morning consolidation (similar to panern #2) can be an integral part of entering trades at the start of the trading day (although it is best to wait 10 minutes before you enter a trade). This way you can catch the first and best breakout. If you are following a particular stock with the expectation of a good move on the day (or simply stumble across one with the following pattern), it may be a strong trade candidate. This is especially true if your market maker screen is moving and showing momentum coming into the breakout. The pattern consists ofjust a few bars on the morning and a range of only a 1/8 to 1/4.
5)
\:[T[:I:~buYlhebre3koot
The point here is to catch the earliest breakout and best price...otherwise pass up the trade. Never chase a stock.
Once a breakout takes place, the stock normally spikes out of the consolidation to begin a strong move. If you miss the initial breakout, other consolidation opportunities may setup in the stock as the day progresses. For example: 6)
.lnITIT~ : ·'1 T 1r rr ~L.. third consolidalion \lith bre:lkout
TIT\
first breakout is best
next consolidation \\ilh breakout
Obviously the first breakout is the best to take. The question arises as to whether you should take the second, third, fourth, etc... breakout. If you missed the earlier breakout(s). how do you know whether or not to take the next one? The best way is to know how long the overall market has been moving in a direction, and ifit is losing steam. Also, consider the average daily range of the stock as well as the strength (momentum) coming into the breakout. lfthe stock often trades a 2 to 3 point daily range, then the subsequent breakouts may still have scalping potential if the range on the day is, for example, only I and 1/8 points at that time. Looking at the daily historical chan will show whether the price is breaking out of a daily consolidation area and if daily support or resistance has been broken. This can often lead to a large magnitude move and a stronger initial price spike, even if the last few daily bars have been in a narrow price range. Again., the longer the consolidation on the 5 minute bar chart, the better the trade.
Trade setup #7 depicts 2 good trade entry points following extended consolidation. Both of them may be worth taking. The second breakout to the downside could also be traded selllhis breakout out of
~ long & light consolidation...

'Wedging" consolidation on the 5 minute 'chart, especially ifit develops over the first I to 2 hours of trading. can precipitate strong breakout moves. This pattern usually sets up for a trade on the long side. Consolidation at the high of the day must be present and hugging the upper price boundary as the wedge pattern unfolds. Here is the buy setup:
9)

;K. . :
buy a breakout here ----.... wedge shape pointing in the direction of the breakout
So far we've looked at the best and preferred trade setups where you should trade the breakout of the current high or low of the day out of strong consolidation... the longer the consolidation, the better. Remember, you are looking for a strong price spike for maximum scalping potential. There are also a few setups that are more aggressive and may be tradable.
LOWER PROBABILITY TRADES: These are secondary and somewhat lower probability patterns. But when paired with other analysis, such as momentum from the market maker screen., they may be traded successfully.
10) this pattern may well be sbo""ing price strength 10 Lhe upside with successively higher swings down in price as it goes back up to test the ~ high price. wait for some cof\SOlidation before buying a breakout to the upside

The "FLASl-ffiACKn is another morning trade based on a quick reversal in direction of a stock's price. It quickly fakes one direction., then reverses back the other way to break the current high or low of the day. Look for the market index to be moving in the same direction the trade is taken for it to be worthwhile. Here is how it sets up for a buy trade:
12)

buY' breakou'
13)
III··················· II II II "[ITrlnn
_
this breakout up from consolidation should be considered if lhe distance: from the breakout level to the high of the day is at least 1+ poinlS. Itugging upper price level
This could be considered if the overall market index begins moving up stronglv and there is enough distance to the high from the breakout to make a decent profit. In order for the trade to yield you money there should be at'least I + points from the breakout point to the high of the day. These trades can be good on a day when the market runs down in the morning and then makes a smooth, rounding bottom that subsequently swings back up.
These examples are often strong trade setups that may be taken for a reasonable percentage of success. The rationale is to get in early on a strong move that will allow a quick and decent scalping profit.
LOWEST PROBABrLlTY TRADES: Be very careful with these patterns
Here are some similar and seemingly desirable price panerns that should usually not be traded unless there is another convincing reason to enter. The first is a "dip and rally" consolidation that is not quite at the high of the day:
14)

These other patterns are all further examples of price action that probably should not be traded, even though they may look enticing:

SUMMARY These have been a few graphic intraday price patterns to give you a feel for what to look fOf. They cover the best setups and higher risk trades. as well as what typically not to trade. Obviously these are drawn as textbook examples. Actual slock charts, as they unfold during the day, will vary somewhat.
CONCLUSION: What about yesterday's intraday price chart? Finally. there are occasions to consider yesterday's intraday price chart, especially as it finished the last hour or two of the day. Here you are looking for stocks that traded in a tight consolidation pattern into yesterday's close at or near the high or low of that day. Today, if the stock opens in the same consolidation price range, you are looking at the possibility of an even more powerful breakout trade. Here is how it should look:
I III 1 I II 11,IITITITlnnr::T1l ... yesterday
today
This presents a great breakout trade oftodav's current high or low. Refer to the daily bar price chan for analysis to get a better idea of whether a breakout to the upside or to the downside is the best trade to take. This price pattern also enhances the success of trades in the "Stock Patterns" manual section covering daily setups (w/r bars w/extreme close, and reversal bars). These daily setups are traded early in the market session and may also be scalped effectively. Refer to the "I to 3 daily bar setups" and "longer tenn setups" from the "Stock Patterns" manual for these day trade scalp patterns.
THE 10 COMMANDMENTS Of TRADING (fOR SCALPING)
1) NEVER LOSE MORE THAT 5650 NET PER DAY (GO HOME)
2) ONLY OPEN 1 TRADE AT A TIME. CLOSE IT OUT BEFORE YOU ENTER ANOTHER TRADE 3) CONTINUE TRADING ONLY IF YOUR CUMULATIVE PILlS TRENDING UPWARD 4) "CHERRY PICK" ONLY THE BEST TRADES 5) DO NOT EXECUTE A TRADE IN THE FIRST 10 MINUTES OF TRADING 6) DO NOT RISK MORE THAN 1/$ POINT LOSS PER TRADE - ANDREMEMBER. A FLAT TRADE IS YOUR BEST FRIEND IF THE ALTERNATIVE IS A LOSS 7) ONCE YOU HAVE A GOOD PROFIT ON THE DAY, BOOK SOME 5$$$ EX. JF You HAVE $1000 NET PROFIT - POCKET $700 AND USE $300 FOR MORE TRADES &. COMMISSIONS
$) IF YOUR WELL PICKED TRADES ARE NOT CLEARING. OR YOU HAVE 3-4 FLATS / LOSSES IN A ROW. STOP TRADING AND REASSESS IF YOU SHOULD BE IN THE MARKET 9) BE QUICK TO TAKE A PROFIT WHILE MOMENTUM IS STILL MOVING IN YOUR FAVOR 10) TRADING IS 90% MENTAL DISCIPLINE IF YOU CANNOT ADHERE TO THESE RULES, YOU WILL LOSE MONEY. AND YOU WILL fAIL!!!
5 MINUTE BAR CHART EXAMPLES
The following pages show actual examples of what the 5 minute bar charts tend to look like in actual trading. Most pages have 2 slock charts with each chart providing 4 days of trading activity. Knowing the intraday price action ofa stock for I or more prior days helps give you a better feel for that stock's personality at a glance. These intraday chan examples are marked to show consolidation at the high or low of the day and the breakout point. You will be able to see how the setups from the 5 minute intraday bar chart section play QUt. This is the core of your scalping strategy. AJthough ['ve marked most of the successful trades with a decem price spike, you will also see some places where trades would not have worked out and probably provided you with a flat or a loss. You will find in actual trading that many of these "fakeouts" can be eliminated by trading in the direction of the current intraday market indexes and/or by realizing early in a trading day that the market is choppy and not wonh trading. Also, being aware of the dailv bar chart characteristics (described earlier) helps to filter out only the best trade candidates. Only trade entrY points are marked, but what about the exit points? Since you are scalping, you are immediately bidding or offering out into the momentum. Usually you bid or offer for a 1/8 point profit. Sometimes the price moves so quickly that you will look for a 1/4 to 3/8 point profit or more. With some experience you will be able to fine tune your exits to get the greatest available scalping profit. If momentum has stalled and your bid or offer has not been taken, cancel it and buy or seU at market to close out the trade. Not all of the stocks in the following ex.amples are 1/8 or 1/4 point bid / ask spread stocks. I chose them simply because they show what a typical chan will look like. Make sure you trade only stocks which fit the criteria discussed in this module for scalping. These examples will help you translate the <'textbook" appearance of the patterns into actual trading.

DAY TRADERS COURSE
A real-time training course is available which offers both classroom style learning sessions as well as hands on gujdance during "live" trading. This is best done with a group of several traders since the synergy will help foster the exchange of ideas. The one-on-one personal interaction brings alive the book's trading strategies in 10 plus hours of classroom training and 5 full days of market trading. You will understand and recognize the nuances of how to actually trade profitably. The goal is to raise your trading skills to a higher level. Additional materials and information are also provided. Whether you trade from home or at a day trading firm, a week of on-site training is available to you. The only requirement is that you have access to NASDAQ level II quotes with price charting capabilities, and a week's worth of your time devoted to learning and sharing ideas. Although I enjoy trading, I also enjoy teaching. If you are interested in serious training that is crafted to your needs, fax me at the phone number listed below for details and fees. Provide your name and phone number, and I will return your call as soon as possible (usually after market hours).
