9. SETUP Go to Predefined Scans. Select the pattern that you like (Technical Indicators, Candlestick Patterns or P&F Patterns). Select the Equities Exchange (NASDAQ, NYSE or AMEX). You will see an underscored number indicating the # of stocks that were located. Click on that underscored # You will get a listing of the specific stocks it found Click on the underscore Open button.

This strategy works best when we find stocks that are in a overbought/oversold position Relative Strength Index (Values above 70 are considered overbought and values below 30, oversold. When prices are over 70 or below 30 and diverge from price action, a warning is given of a possible trend reversal. ) Slow Stochastic (below 20 considered oversold and readings above 80 considered overbought )

12. RSI EXAMPLE

13. GALLERY VIEW Three charts will appear: daily, weekly and point and figure On the daily chart each candle represents one day. On the weekly chart each candle represents one week. You will see price labels on the daily and weekly charts, if the price labels point down it is a Put signal and if they point up it is a Call signal. Take the last signal on the weekly chart and find a match on the daily chart. On the following charts you can see the weekly and daily price label match at $48.07.

15. WEEKLY CHART

16. GALLERY VIEW When there is a match it tells you what to do. In this case since the $48.07 is pointing down you would buy a put. If the $48.07 was pointing up you would buy a call. Confirm price direction on PPO (Percentage Price Oscillator) chart, located above the daily chart. If black line crosses the red line it indicate reversal of trend.

17. GETTING A MATCH Once you get a match between the weekly and daily charts: Write down Stock Symbols. Go to your Virtual Account and place the trade. Buy options “ At The Money “ or “ In The Money ” two to three months out.

18. GETTING OUT OF THE TRADE You can close out the position at any point based on your risk tolerance 20%, 50% or 100% return. Or you can place a trailing stop order based on your risk tolerance. Or you can wait for a Match to appear to close out the position. For example in the case of the stock GLG we currently have a Put match of 48.07 so we bought a put option, we would wait until we get a Call match to exit the trade.
