FAIL Trading Model Against the Moving Average

Fail Trading Model

A FAIL is when the market moves above or below the 15 moving average and FAILS back the other way -

A FAIL usually takes place within 1 to 3 bars. 

The reason for the FAIL model was to identify the pattern the market was in at the time and understand that market can go past the moving averages and FAIL back to the original trend. Meaning, just because the market may have dropped below the moving average, it may not mean the upper trend has stopped.  

Note: All Trading Cycle (TC) Lows do happen below the 15 length moving averages and a drop below the moving average is expected. When the TC Low is confirmed, one would expect a 4 to 9 bar cycle period up from the TC Low.

Walter Bressert's Best Trade Setup

Image
 Walter Bressert's Best Trade Setup -  When my father developed the Green Line (Double Stoch) and the Red Line (B-Line Bressert Line), he really had something. He did this in the early 90's. These 2 indicators tell a story you will never see with any other 2 sets of indicators.  What is the set up? The set up is simple. If the Red line is in the sell zone, and the Green Line is in the buy zone, that is a buy. Vice versa for a sell short entry model.  That's it.  The Red Line is momentum based and the Green Line comes down into zones to show the "When" to look to enter. We look for this all day to occur and they occur often enough to wait for them. We always say if there is just ONE model to follow, this could be the one.  https://cycletraderpro.com Video

100 Percent Bars

Image
100 Percent Bars - The model is when the current bar exceeds more than the length of the previous bar by 100% or more.  Afterwards, the market tends to come back to the mid point of the bar that caused the 100% bar.  How to trade this model?  When you see a 100% bar, it does not mean you need to jump in at the point, you can wait for the market to come back to the 50% level to enter if you like the direction of the move.  https://cycletraderpro.com

4 to 9 Bar Cycle Count

Image
4 to 9 Bar Cycle Count -  Most markets follow the 4 to 9 Bar Cycle Count from low to high and high to low. The cycle count is accurate for all markets and all time frames.  Meaning, it does not matter if you are trading pork bellies, currencies, indexes, or bonds; the cycle count is valid in all markets and all time frames, 1,4,6,10, 15, 40, 60, 120, etc minute charts. The Alpha CycleWave indicator plots these cycle counts in real-time.  The setup is to wait for the market to reach a cycle bottom or top and exit positions. This gives you the "timing" to look for when markets are likely to turn.  There are what we call "extended cycles". This is when the market will go past the 9 bar cycle count. You can look for these extended cycle counts in trending markets.  We suggest to look at all time frames. Meaning, if the 60 minute chart is only 3 bars up, and the 5 minute chart is making a 7 to 9 bar cycle high, it may be best to wait for the 5 minute bottom to go long ra
