- 5. • support /resistance • moving average • trend line Main market levels can be found using 3 pivots
- 6. • each touchweakens this pivot • so if the level is retested enough times, it will normally break • the 4th test is the break through normally • resistance becomes support / support becomes resistance Pivot 1 : support / resistance
- 7. Pivot 1 :support / resistance EURJPY daily chart 2013 to 2016 3rd test has false break 4th test is works well
- 8. Pivot 1 :support / resistance GBPJPY 15 minute chart 12/7/2016 1 – London open – break out 2 – My entry 45 minutes later
- 9. Pivot 1 :support / resistance This is a clean chart No indicators, just a line How many of you took the trade?
- 10. • these areguide ropes not defensive lines • the 50 day average on a daily is the main trend guide line • the 200 day average needs to be tested sometimes to improve liquidity – if it holds – great sign of a move coming Pivot 2 : moving average
- 11. Pivot 2 :moving average Blue arrows = support line Red arrows = touches of 200 ma Daily EURJPY in 2007 / 08
- 12. Pivot 2 :moving average To trade the trend in this chart , only buy above 50 ma Same chart showing 50 ma Daily EURJPY in 2007 / 08
- 13. Pivot 2 :moving average This chart does not respect the daily 50 ma in the middle period Same chart showing 50 ma Daily EURJPY in 2007 / 08 But this later period is very clean and trending well Many traders counter trend trade with lower success rates
- 14. • the daily50 ma is the trend keeper - if a chart is under the daily 50 I look to short highs, if its above the 50 I look buy lows • after a break away from the ma, the first test is normally a fade / pull back which then continues in the direction of the original break Pivot 2 : moving average
- 15. Pivot 2 :moving average Same chart showing 50 ma Daily EURJPY in 2007 / 08 Once this daily chart holds above this support line Respect for the daily 50 tests is MUCH HIGHER
- 16. Pivot 2 :moving average 50 ma Intra day EURJPY 15 minute chart this week Day traders can use this also!
- 17. These are aproblem for many traders because there are a few ways you can use them but I will show you how I use them, and later, why these are so crucial Pivot 3 : trend lines
- 18. • from themost extreme point, find the next point so for a market that has sold, find a lower high • the more touches there are the better • the bigger the time frame you use for these the better • I do not use these on 5 / 15 minute charts Pivot 3 : trend lines
- 19. Pivot 3 :trend line EURJPY – daily chart The higher lower trendline is drawn 1st the 2nd is a copy of the 1st line Then dropped down to find the right touches You end up with a very powerful pattern Which predicts these big drops
- 20. Pivot 3 :trend line EURJPY – daily chart Simple, but watch what happens when you build this up
- 21. Pivot 3 :trend line EURJPY – daily chart The lower trendline is a copy of the 1st line Then dropped down to find the right touches You end up with a very powerful pattern Which predicts this recent low Same theory – just bigger picture
- 22. Pivot 3 :trend line EURUSD – 1 hour chart Sideways for 2 weeks!!!
- 23. Put them alltogether and you can find key pivots Pivots are what we all need to find Trend lines and support / resistance help you find very powerful chart patterns They show you where the big funds are buying / selling I find so many traders miss this as they do not do the basics on bigger time frame charts!

Part 2 :advanced forex analysis - waves Wave 1 - happens when there is a lot of fear but the buyers step in and break out Wave 2 - profit taking and lack of support – this wave must be inside the original move.
