Chart Scan with Commentary: Hooks in a Consolidation
In the chart below, prices are in an extended consolidation. One aspect of the Law of Charts states that when prices have been in consolidation, it takes a 1-2-3 high (or 1-2-3 low) followed by a Ross hook for us to consider a swing inside a trading range to be valid as defining a trend.
Trading ranges are often made up of both 1-2-3 highs and 1-2-3 lows at the end of each leg within the trading range. Therefore, a 1-2-3 formation in and of itself cannot define a trend when prices are in consolidation. What is needed is a tie-breaker, something to indicate that prices are indeed ready to break out. A 1-2-3 formation followed by a Ross hook inside a trading range “defines” a trend. Once prices violate the point of the Ross hook, we can then consider the trend to be “established.” This violation can happen both within and outside of the trading range.
The breakout of the #2 point of the 1-2-3 high formation defined the trend. The breakout of the Ross hook (Rh) results in establishing a trend. The Traders Trick Entry (TTE) ahead of the breakout of the Rh, was a valid trading entry signal even though prices were in consolidation.

Ambush traders rock the Candian Dollar known as the Loonie
One of the top markets over the last couple of months for Ambush Traders has been the Canadian Dollar, also known as the Loonie. Doesn't matter if you're trading the regular Canadian Dollar Future, the Micro Future, or the USD/CAD Forex pair, Ambush Traders had real fun in that market!
Here's a daily chart of the Canadian Dollar Future (6C), showing the last couple of months of trading. As you can see this market did what markets do 90% of the time, which is why Ambush is such a great trading method. Markets move in boxes/ranges, break out for a few days and then start moving in the next box. The loonie has been boxing a lot lately and so Ambush Traders had a lot of fun!
Here are the results of these trades, trading one contract:
Almost $4k profits with very little drawdowns in between!
Notice that all of these are actually day trades, even though they're based on end-of-day trading decisions. Ambush is exactly that, an easy way to day trade not for a few tiny ticks with a lot of stress but placing your trades once a day, walk away, and go for the big intraday moves.
Join Ambush Signals, let's have some fun with trading!
Happy Trading,
Marco
The Ambush Trading System was created in 2007 by Marco Mayer. Since then it proved itself in the markets for over a decade and did so with exceptional results. It's the only trading system we're aware of that is still going strong after so many years. While Ambush is a day trading system, meaning you will always enter and exit on the same trading day - you don't have to sit in front of your trading screen. You simply place your entry orders when the trading session starts and come back at the close!
