This week’s chart scan continues a series of very basic technical analysis concepts. I’m not a big fan of technical analysis, but I have to admit that I cut my trading teeth using it. Eventually, I came to believe there is a time and place for any and all tools. If something can help you understand the markets and how to trade them, I’m all for it.

There are many beginning traders who read Chart Scan, and over the years I have had many questions from them concerning technical analysis. Instead of giving you an article on the psychological aspects of trading, the next several issues of chart scan will feature articles on technical analysis. My hope is that where and whenever possible, I will show you the right way to use this type of analysis.

Keep in mind, the only real truth on a price chart is price itself. With that in mind and keeping price always at the forefront, we can begin taking a look at some tools that fit into the category of technical analysis.  ~ Enjoy, Master Trader Joe Ross

Chart Scan with Commentary:  Volume

Hello! Do institutional investors have access to volume beyond their broker? Is there any way to actually see an aggregate of all Liquidity Providers (LPs)? 

This is in reference to an article our Forex expert trader, Marco Mayer, published in 2017. Please read the article:

FXStreet.com

You can get access to over 50% of the total volume data at CLS (www.cls-group.com/products/data/), but it's expensive and questionable if it will really help you to improve your trading decisions.

Regarding direct access to LPs, it's possible for institutions and private traders with big accounts only. One exception is LMAX (www.lmax.com/),  which I can recommend from my own experience.

Joe Ross shows you the right way to use basic technical analysis concepts, but the only real truth on a price chart is price itself.

Also, IB (interactivebrokers.co.uk) has excellent liquidity, usually more than enough for private traders. Another way to get more liquidity is by trading the FX futures at the CME (here you also see the real volume as it's centralized).

Trading Article:  Insider Buying and Selling

If you are unfamiliar with the term, insider buying refers to when insiders of a company - such as CEOs or directors - purchase shares of company stock on the public market or via private placement. Sometimes, the purchase may be the result of a stock option exercise, but often they are public market transactions.

Insider buying typically means that the insider is bullish on the company's stock; they believe it is undervalued and will rise. Tracking insider buying regularly can help to outperform the market.

Here are some of the pros/cons of tracking insider transactions.

Trading Article:  Stop Management

Richard Wyckoff wrote: "My stop was moved down so there couldn't be a loss, and soon a slight rally and another break gave me a new stop, which insured a profit, come what might… I strongly advocate this method of profit insuring. The scientific elimination of loss is one of the most important factors in the art, and the operator who fails to properly protect his paper profits will find that many a point, which he thought he had cinched, has slipped away from him. When you push a stop close behind a rise or decline, you leave the way open for a further...read more.

Gold-Rush: Over $10,000 profit with a Day Trade in the Gold Future?!

One of the top markets over the last couple of months for Ambush Traders has been the gold market. Whether it's the Gold Future, Micro-Future, or XAU/USD forex pair, Ambush Traders are in a crazy gold rush!

Here's a daily chart of the Gold Future (GC, traded at CME), 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. Gold has been in huge boxes almost all of the time and so Ambush Traders had a lot of great opportunities!

Marco Mayer shares trading success with Ambush Signals example trading education

Here are the results of these trades, trading only one Gold Future (GC) contract:

Marco Mayer shares trading success with Ambush Signals example trading education

Yup, that's almost $40k profits with almost no drawdowns in between within just a couple of months! And yes we did catch one of the largest moves ever in the gold market on 9th November making OVER $10k with a DAY TRADE!

Now the Gold Future is a large contract and not suitable for small accounts. But you can do these trades also in the E-Micro Gold which is just 1/10 the size or the XAU/USD forex pair.

That's what makes Ambush Signals so great, it works with any account size offering three subscription models depending on your goals.

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!

Don't miss the next Gold trade and join Ambush Signals today!

Happy Trading!

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!
