Continuation Trades

Recommended Posts

What are the pattern(s) we should be looking for to take a continuation trade? I know you mentioned that a continuation trade occurs - for example a buy - when there has been a large histogram on the V94 window, which is positive as price moves up, then on the retracement we want to see the histogram go to zero or only slightly negative. I was looking for this today on the ES, but wasn't sure how to integrate the multiple timeframes with this. Also, if one waits for the histogram to turn from moving in a negative direction to moving in a positive direction, one can be about 3 bars late from the actual turning point. How can we position ourself for a more timely entry? Thanks.

 

Mead,

 

Thanks for the query.

 

Most users of the TPS Indicator Pack look to make 3 kinds of trades - Reversal, Confirmation and Continuation.

 

Regardless of time frame, continuation trades look to take advantage of a trend. Using the indicator pack there are several indicatons both from price and from V94 and NNT.

 

The first indication of a trend is continuing Lower Lows or Higher Highs in both price and the indicators. Depending on the setting the price chart will indicate trend from either price and the center strip MA or from the RDot Pivots. Higher High Pivots as well as Higher Low Pivots along with higher changes from Red to Blue in the center stripe dots indicate an up trend in price.

 

As you will see in teh charts below, the V94Window indicates trend three different ways:

 

  1. V94Window indicates an up trend with a very small departure below zero after a much bigger excursion above zero

  2. V94Windo can also indicate trend with a series of readings, all of which are either above or below zero as shown below

  3. V94 can also indicate trend with a series of wither Higher Highs or Lower Lows

 

The Net New Trade indicator indicates trend with either a series of Higher Highs or Lower Lows or a continuous, steep, run.

 

If you are reading these indications of trend in the higher time frames you can get a more timely entry, so you will not be "3 bars late" by looking at the fastest time frame.

 

This first Chart shows continuation in an up trend via very small departures below zero in V94 and well as continuous higher highs and higher lows in both Net New Trade, Price and in Price Pivots:

Next week I will record and post a webinar demonstrating Reversal Trades, Confirmation Trades and Continuation Trades using the Indicator Pack.

It seems like this charts are good in hindsight.

 

Sometimes they even offer foresight as in the chart directly above - note how the spike foretells the extreme and the divergence confirms it.

    • 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!
