Master Taylor's Trading Technique in 40 Characters
1. The Taylor Trading Technique
With Linda Raschke’s Variations on the theme
2. Six Ways to Use Taylor’s Method
1. Follow the system literally in exact detail (and make a
viable living).
2. Follow the basic methodology with discretion.
3. Trade selective “plays” only.
4. Use for accumulation/distribution in trend trading and
intermediate swing trading.
5. Use as a departure point in developing short term
mechanical systems.
a) Price Pattern
b) Range expansion systems
c) 2 Day ROC
6. Practice as a way to develop superior entry/exit
technique.
3. Main Concepts
Trade within a 2-3 day time frame
Watch price action around previous day’s high or low
Monitor the length of the last upswing relative to the last
downswing (60 and 120 minute charts are optimum)
Determine what the “play” is for the day – i.e., the trend for
the day or the “test” for the day.
Ignore all news and fundamentals. Focus on tape action.
Although trading on a 1-2 day basis, be aware of the bigger
picture – the longer price structure, Don’t take
countertrend trades within the first 3 days of a breakout
from a chart formation.
4. The Classic Cycle
"Plays" — (Taylor Rules for each Cycle Day)
– Buy Day
Low First
Big Rally
Flat Close
– Buy Day Low Violation
– Selling Day
Flat Opening
Down Opening
– Short Sale Day Short Sale Day
High First
Big Decline
– Short Sale on Buy Day High First

5. “Ideal” 3-5 Day Cycle
The Method provides a game plan for every day.
– "A trader who knows how to act when the expected happens, is in a better
position to act when the unexpected happens".
Stocks & commodities tend to follow a repetitive 3-5 day cycle
consisting of:
– A Buy Day (you go long);
– A Sell Day (you exit your longs from the previous day); and
– A Sell Short Day ( you look to go short by fading the last bit of the rally
which began on the Buy Day).
After the Sell Short Day, the cycle repeats itself, starting with a new
Buy Day on which you cover your shorts and look to go long.
This is the "ideal" cycle. In a trending market there is sometimes an extra
day or two inserted on the long or the short side.

7. Basic Principles
A trader must rely on his/her own judgment.
Listening to others will not give you an edge
but rather will serve as a distraction.
8. The Classic Cycle
“The market has a definite 1-2-3 rhythm,
with at times an extra 1-2 beats.”
The market goes up 1-2-3 days and reacts,
the 4th and 5th figure is the variation when it
runs that extra day or 2 in a trend.
Start with three days as our trading cycle.
We use the first day for buying and the 2nd
and 3rd day for selling.
9. Daily Focus
Each day the main focus is on the
"Objective levels" - the previous day's high
and low.
The Book Method trader places his orders
"at the market".
Don't limit your orders.
Trading ranges have the most mechanical
accumulation and distribution rhythm.
10. Objective Points
Objectives for a trade are the resistance that comes in
around the Previous Day's high, and the support that
comes in at or around the Previous Day's low.
– Until a trader gains in experience, buy to cover or sell to exit just as
the objectives are reached.
– Think only about exiting your trade as an objective area is
approached.
– Though Objectives may seem conservative, remember that the
trader will get Positive slippage.
– In stronger trends, allow for deeper penetration of the objective
point.
FORGET ABOUT A TRADE AFTER YOU HAVE MADE IT!
11. Rules for a Buy Day
Anticipate a Buy Day after one to two consecutive down
closes.
In an up-trend, a Buy Day might occur after only 1 down
close.
A Buy Day can also occur after just one, wide-ranging down
day such as an outside down day in a congestion area.
Watch for the market to open and test the previous day's
low for support.
The ideal Buy Day includes:
– A test of the previous day's low that finds support.
– Lows made in the morning and high made in the afternoon.
– A close in the upper end of the daily range.
12. Rules for a Buy Day (Con’t)
Go Long on a test of the previous day's low. Once a
long is entered, the low for the day should be considered a
support level. A stop should be placed beneath this area.
Hold Overnight: If the trade is going to close with a profit,
it should be held overnight. Exit the position on the next
day on any follow through momentum.
If price pushes too much below the previous day's low on a
Buy Day morning before finding temporary support, the
objective for the long trade is the previous day's low.
If the market is closing "flat" or unchanged, it indicates
further weakness. Exit Long positions before the close.
13. Rules for a Buy Day (Con’t)
Same Day Exit: While the intent is to hold your position
overnight, you should exit positions on the same day if the
market has an extremely favorable move, handing you a
windfall profit.
Large Opening Gap Down: If a Buy Day is expected but
there is a large opening gap down below the previous day's
low, (Buy Day Low Violation) buy at the first signs of
support and look to exit on a reaction back up towards
yesterday's low.
Large Opening Gap Up: If a Buy Day is expected, but the
market gaps up by a large amount, there is risk that the
high can be made first and the market will trade down from
the opening price for the rest of the session (Buy Day
Highs Made First). In this case, a trader can look for the
short sale first.
14. Sell Day
Once a long position is established, your goal is to
exit on any follow-through the next day.
The previous day's action indicates the most
probable opening move. If the Buy Day finished
with a strong close up continued strength the
next morning.
In a strong up trend, an upside penetration of the
previous day's high can be expected.
Do not stay in a position that is acting opposite to
what you anticipated.
15. Sell Short Day
After the market has rallied for two to three days,
the short term up cycle should be close to
exhausting itself.
A "Sell Short Day" will normally follow a Sell Day.
The same characteristics of a Buy Day will be
found on the Sell Short Day only in reverse.
– The ideal Sell Short Day will open up from the previous
day's close, make its high first and its low last, and close
in the lower end of its range.
– A weak close on a Sell Short Day indicates further
weakness and an opportunity to cover short positions
the next day.
16. Sell Short Day (Con’t)
If price rallies sharply above the previous day's
high before finding resistance, the objective for
the short trade becomes a reaction back
towards the previous day's high. In this case,
the trade should be exited on the same day.
If you are expecting a Sell Short Day but the
market opens way down and finds support, the
possibility exists that a rally may ensue, and
the high would be made last, indicating further
strength. Wait and push the Sell Short Day
ahead to the next day. Then look to short a test
of the previous day's high using the same
rules.
17. Sell Short Day (Con’t)
If the market has just given a big decline, the
shorts will be in no hurry to cover. Often, after a
bit of time, the market can recover with activity.
A Sell Short Day that has a fast decline and
then rallies back forming a "V“ Expect a
higher opening and a higher low on the
reaction for the Buy Day.
18. Price Patterns
The 2-Day Rate of Change (ROC) is a
useful tool which dovetails well with Taylor's
in one day out the next technique.
The 2-period ROC indicates whether the
odds favor being a buy or a seller for the
next day.
– Hold the trade overnight and exit according to
his guidelines.
19. Price Patterns
Three bar Triangle breakout pattern: Price has a lower
high then the 2 day high and a higher low then the two
day low with a narrowing of the ranges.
Pinball: A 3-period RSI of the 1-day ROC has a reading
of above 67 or below 33.
– Look for buys when price is above the 20-period EMA and for
sells when price is below the 20-period EMA.
Pinball2: Price has pulled completely away from a 5-
period simple moving average indicating momentum.
The first close in the opposite direction on the other side
of a 4 SMA sets up a pinball sell.
5 SMA: Price closes above a 5 SMA for 7+ bars.
– The first close on the opposite side sets up a Buying opportunity.
20. Basic Flips
There is a small positive expectation across all
markets when entering "long market on close" on
the day the 2-period ROC first flips up and exiting
on the next day's close.
The ROC indicator turns up or down every 2 1/2
days on average.
The 2-period ROC has better statistical
expectation than either a simple price change (1-
period ROC) or a longer term oscillator such as a
moving average oscillator.
21. Short Term Anti
An "Anti" trade occurs when the slopes of two
oscillators which have different time frames, are in
opposition to each other.
Wait for the 2-period ROC to correct two days in
the opposite direction of the slope of an
intermediate oscillator - I use the 16 period SMA of
the 3/10 oscillator.
The best trades occur when the slope of the
longer-term indicator has just turned.
The choicest trades appear as a small shoulder or
a 1-2 day drift pattern.
22. ROC Divergence
It is a reversal pattern.
Don't look for this in the strongest trending
markets.
The ideal time window is 5-days but this
pattern can form over 4 or 6 days.
If the pattern does not work within 1-2 days,
the primary trend is going to reassert itself!
23. Volatility Breakout Systems
A % of the previous day's range or a % of
the previous N-bar range is added or
subtracted to the closing price or the next
day's opening price.
This level is used as a buy or sell stop to
enter in the direction the market is moving.
Exit on next day's open/close or an ATR
function.
Risk n% ATR.
24. Using TICKS with Market Timing and
Taylor Trend for the Day!
Think of Ticks as correlating with the strength of buy or sell programs.
Ticks can be used as a momentum indicator or an "overbought/oversold"
indicator in a trading range environment.
Ticks represent how much buying or selling power has been used to push
the market up or down on a particular swing.
Ticks must be watched with respect to overall market tone or type of
environment (trading range or trending).
Ticks can be used in a countertrend manner by looking to fade the extreme
readings when in a trading range.
Ticks have an upward bias and are highly correlated with market breadth.
Ticks function as a confirmation/non-confirmation indicator. If the market
makes a new high, the ticks should also make a new high.
The market alternates between a trending and a consolidation mode. The day
following a trend day or wide range day tends to be a particularly good one for
using the ticks in a countertrend mode.
25. Using TICKS with Market Timing and
Taylor Trend for the Day!
Trend Day: Ticks reaching extreme readings on a single day indicate
a trend day. There are good odds of follow-through the next morning
after a day where the ticks hit +/- 1000 in the afternoon.
Buy on Pullbacks: If Ticks make new highs above +1000 after 10
AM, look to buy the first pullback. If they make new HIGHS after 2 PM,
buy the first pullback. An extreme tick reading in the first 30 minutes
should be questioned.
Extreme Tick Readings: Extreme tick readings between 10 - 12 EST
indicate that the market may resume the trend in the afternoon, usually
after a mid-day consolidation. If ticks do not make new highs (or lows
when in a downtrend), then the afternoon leg will not have any follow-
through. Extremes Tick readings in the afternoon favor a market
follow-through into the next day.
If price rises and falls as the tick rises and falls, the day should be a
normal trading day. If the market has had a strong trend the day before,
the odds of having morning follow through are very high.
