Special Theory of Price Discovery (STOPD) | DaytradingBias.com

 

Auction Based Trading Markets Are Unfair By Design

Most of the trading markets nowadays are open auction markets. Auction markets are designed to favour players with intimidating position size capacities.

 

Read STOPD to learn the truth and start to observe market behaviour in a totally different way.

 

The Structure is Hidden in Plain Sight

Classic technical analysis suffers from fragmented trading setups and incoherent interpretations, making it difficult to apply in real-life situation.

 

STOPD provides you with a framework to read the markets fluently as if you are holding onto a GPS at a crossroad.

 

The Key to Profitability is the Exit Not the Entry

Price pattern recognition and trading setups give you trading entries but failed miserably in providing the all important target zones to exit your trades.

 

STOPD gives you the structural target when price reacts at structural price level – taking out the guesswork and improve your profitability quickly as it can be integrated with your existing trading strategies easily.

 

Thanks

No, but I do know that many people waste lots of money on things like this.

 

You may have an easier journey if you invest time and effort in a careful statistical study of the market you wish to trade rather than vendor products.

The Hierarchy of available information. Ordered by value, given extra visual stimulation by scaling font size with value.

 

1. Understand how much you don't know.

 

2. Information gathered from unbiased personal collection.

 

3. Peer reviewed scholarly articles.

 

4. Internet Forums.

 

5. PUBLISHED books (physically published).

 

6. self published E-books

 

Also note internet forums can vary hugely, but the good information is out there with the bad.

This is true but plenty of free info out there already on topic. As noted above you would likely be wasting $$ and time randomly downloading unverified ebooks online. (Been there, done that!) :)

 

Search for resources on reading the tape/order flow and you can tap into this area easily. A good 'required reading' for all traders is 'Reminiscences of a Stock Operator' where the shenanigans of early 1900's Wall Street are still being played out (more easily) on the electronic exchanges. This book can be found for free online but best version IMHO is the illustrated and annotated Edwin LeFevre version. A beautiful and valuable book.

Hmm. I'm not saying that the guy doesn't know something about the market, but like others have pointed out here and elsewhere, there really is a lot of good information on the internet for free. The way it's been phrased, the guy has identified the very nature of the market and knows exactly how it works. So making money with his method should be a breeze right? But then why have a marketing website in order to sell this method at all? Why charge CAD 55? Without knowing who the guy is, buying one of his ebooks is a bit of a stab in the dark. There seems to be plenty of stuff on his website which you can read for free though so why not look at that first?

Thanks for your valuable replies guys. I appreciate it a lot. :)

 

This guy is actually the owner of Neoticker and he mentions that he works a lot with the big institutions and have done lot of research work for them. That's why I thought that maybe I should ask the opinions of fellow traders on the forums about his research work. He has got a few other research papers / reports for sale on that site as well.

He posts his weekly predictions based on his STOPD levels here:

 

Weekly Outlook | DaytradingBias.com

 

I want to know whether he has EXPLAINED the method / reasons / logic behind these levels and other stuff that he posts on daytradingbias. Why and how he calculates these and what are the practical importance etc ?

 

Or we simply have to believe in these levels without having any understanding of what they are and how are they calculated etc. ?

 

Does those paid pdf books contains the proper explanations or not ? If anyone has got these pdf then can you please answer that.

 

Thanks a lot

Given the content of your posts, you appear to be eager to spend your money on stuff like this and it's unlikely that anyone is going to be able to stop you.

 

But this is just plain old AMT: locate the range, find the midpoint and call that "0", then find first and second levels of S&R and label those "+1/-1" and "+2/-2". Otherwise it's the same old waffle: if and when price hits S, it will bounce, unless it doesn't, in which case it'll fall (flip for R).

 

There are boatloads of posts on AMT here, and it doesn't cost anything.

People who are fortunate enough to work in the research departments of big financial institutions are compensated to the tune of hundreds of thousands (and sometimes millions) of dollars per year.

 

Why would such a person therefore expend time and effort trying to pedal software or systems to retail traders like you or I for a few hundred dollars? It just doesn't make sense, does it?

No idea about this product but this individual seems to be a rather serious professional. Blue, I take just the opposite view: I suspect that those traders/vendors who are doing their own research, developing on tools, etc are much more likely to be successful then the majority of traders who just go by what they've read online or in popular books. Of course, one has to learn to identify the marketeers from those who've put a lot of time in and work into their 'trade craft'.

 

I've no relationship to this Chan individual, for the record.

Actually the funny thing about that is quite frequently their research information is available for free.

 

e.g. Marcos Lopez De Prado from tudor investment corp.

Strength of opinion seems proportional to ignorance. Ain't the internet wonderful.

 

Have a look at Chan's free stuff. There is lots of it and if his way of thinking seems to fit yours then pay for the product - you might get an insight that would take you years of watching markets tick up and down if you got it at all.

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
