Taylor Trading Technique

keep in mind that recently ... on short sell day ... market has taken off as though it were a buy day.

 

something to consider if you get long on a scalp... and previous highs are broken the same day.

 

 

 

 

monday short sell day

may be good for a scalp

hey corey,

 

your guess is as good as mine.

 

i was expecting more of a down move. but did you see how they waited til the last second to run it up ?

a high close... suggests more upside.

 

but without at least a 10 point pullback, i consider it an extended cycle.

 

 

 

 

more of buy or more of sell?

TAYLOR says no holidays....

 

i interpret this to mean that any day futures are traded.... is counted.

even if cash does not trade.

 

if futures don't trade... then i don't count that day.

next buy day is wedn

market could gap up tomorrow...

like it did after the egypt pullback day

 

but according to the rules... must wait for buy day

 

on buy day .... want to see a low made first ... to test the low of short sell day

-----------------------------

 

if it drops again.... then the target of the buy day long would be the low of short sell day

 

if it holds.... then the target is the previous high

wednesday... buy day

so far... high made first

 

if bulls can take out same day high.... then it becomes a low made first day... although low put in late in the day

 

if it closes nearer to the low of the day .... then look for a possible buy day low violation on sell day thursday

 

looks like it will be a slight..... close below ...20 sma daily... on the part of the bears.

....if the day ends that way.... bulls could rip on thursday.. back above 20sma and on to new highs.

 

bears need two STRONG consecutive daily closes below daily 20sma to change the trend at all.

" The book is always kept in this order,

never change the continuity

and there are no lines left open for Sundays or Holidays.

The market is considered as a series of continuous sessions without a break. "

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

some have interpreted this to mean..... weekends and holidays are counted as part of the cycle.

 

....i disagree with that. i interpret it to mean that weekends and holidays are NOT included as part of the cycle.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

this brings up an important point.

monday was a holiday for cash index. but futures were open for a partial session.

and during that partial session, future declined significantly.

 

so the question arises.... do you consider it as a holiday as per cash index... or do you consider it as an active session as per futures.

 

i would like to consider it as a holiday as per cash.... and therefore ... to NOT count it as part of the cycle.

that would mean that tuesday would be the next buy day.... rather than monday.

-------------------------------------------------

Taylor where are you ?

" .... and there are no lines left open for Sundays or Holidays. "

-----------------------------------

 

Taylor traded stocks and grains.

according to his plates.... the grains plates show saturday as another trading session.

while his plates for stocks.... did not include saturdays.

-------------------------------------------------------

to me... this means that grains were being traded on saturdays while stocks were not.

therefore saturday is part of his cycle for grains.... while it is not part of his cycle for stocks.

--------------------------------------------------------------

for today's purposes..... stocks... i.e. stock indices... are open only mon-frid.

 

therefore stock index futures should be considered the same way.... since there is no difference between a weekday gap ... and a weekend gap. gaps are just gaps.

---------------------------------------------------------

obviously ... i am interpreting Taylor's words to mean the following...

"left open".... means don't consider a day with no trading as part of the cycle.

if it was included.... it would be a "line left open"

----------------------------------------------------------------

if we do not consider monday as part of the cycle.....

due to the holiday....

--------------

then today monday is short sell day

and tuesday is buy day

 

...rather than today monday being buy day

------------------------

 

..due to price closing at the highs.... the chances of testing monday low on tuesday looks pretty slim

... so any entry for a tuesday buy day looks shot

for buy day ... tuesday

----------

goal is to buy at or below prev day's low

------------

if you did... you got a 50% bounce

=================================

next play is to buy on wednesday... a buy day low violation

...with a target of buy day low... tuesday low

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
