Every individual bar represents a battle that was fought by two groups, the bulls and bears, the buyers and sellers. When the close is above the open, the bulls win, producing the color green. When the close is below the open, the bears win, producing the color red. How much each side wins is determined by how much green or red they produce. In other words, the wider the distance between the open and close, the greater the win. Quite naturally, the group winning the most bars is dominating the stock. Trading Tip: Most successful trades are usually in sync with the winning side.

Market Law # 1:During normal market environments, stocks and other tradable items cannot move in the same direction more than 3 to 5 bars in a row.
Different ways to communicate the law:
1) After a 3 to 5 bar run (up or down) the market/stock tends to sharply reverse, creating a nice trading opportunity.
2) Neither the bulls nor the bears can win more than 5 battles (bars) in a row. After a 3 to 5 bar rally, the bears usually quickly regain control. After a 3 to 5 bar decline, the bulls usually quickly regain control.
3) Lastly, this law can be said this way: “After 3 to 5 green bars in a row, the VCM Trader should look to take advantage of an upcomingseries of red bars. After 3 to 5 red bars in a row, the VCM Trader should look to take advantage of an upcoming series of green bars.”

In each of the scenarios above, the VCM Trader would be looking for a tradable rebound to the upside, once the high of a prior bar has been taken out. How much of a rebound would depend on the answers to several key questions such as: a) is the 3-5 bar dip occurring in an up trend, down trend or sideways trend; b) are any of the most powerful reversal signs present; c) how far away is the nearest area of resistance; d) was there a volume surge that took place toward the end of the decline; e) where is the dip in relation to the 20ma; and f) is the current decline potentially bottoming at or around one of the key reversal times? The answers to all these questions are covered in the many trading concepts taught in future chapters and throughout our 5-day live trading labs.
1) 3-5 Bar Decline – Stocks in strong up trends, as well as clearly defined sideways trends tend to rebound after a 3 to 5 bar decline. This tendency often sets up nice trading opportunities.

In each of the scenarios above, the VCM Trader would be looking for a tradable pullback to the downside, once the low of a prior bar has been taken out. How much of a pullback would depend on the answers to several key questions such as: a) is the 3-5 bar rally occurring in an up trend, down trend or sideways trend; b) are any of the most powerful reversal signs present; c) how far away is the nearest area of resistance; d) was there a volume surge that took place toward the end of the rally; e) where is the rally in relation to the 20ma; and f) is the current rally potentially topping at or around one of the key reversal times? The answers to all these questions are covered in the many trading concepts taught in future chapters and throughout our live 5-day trading labs.
2) 3-5 Bar Rally – Stocks in strong down trends, as well as clearly defined sideways trends tend to back off after a 3 to 5 bar advance. This tendency often sets up nice trading opportunities.

Three Trading Time FramesTr

ng
for

1) 15-minute Chart – This time frame will be used primarily for trend analysis and support and resistance reference points. While VCM Traders do takes trades on it from time, its use as a gauge of the stock’s power and its overbought-ness or oversold-ness is unrivaled. With that being said, trades on the 15-minute chart do tend to be the cleanest and the truest. In a sense, for the professional trader earning a living via the markets, this time frame would be considered the “core” one, for longer term trades.
2) 5-minute Chart – This time is the VCM Trader’s number one staple. If there was only one time frame with which to make a living, it would be this one. It perfectly sits between the 15-minute, which can be a bit to long, and the 2-minute, which can be a bit too noisy at times. The patterns we trade at VCM appear frequently enough in the 5-minute window to keep us active, yet infrequently enough to prevent us from over trading. This is “the” one, “the”time frame to master.
3) 2-minute Chart – This fast moving chart is a god-send when the market is not producing clear signals on the other two time frames. It’s also useful if and when the entry and/or exit points dictated by the 5-minute or 15-minute chart are too far away or unclear. Dropping down to the 2-minute chart for a finer entry or exit will usually provide the alternative. We call this taking an x-ray, or looking inside the stock.

This time frame can really deliver some very healthy profits. The only caveat is that plays taken on it tend to last for 30-minutes to 1-hour. The more active traders will find it hard to be patient unless multiple plays are being managed simultaneously. This time frame is great for S&R analysis.

ing 1) 20 Period Simple Moving Average (20ma) – The 20ma is so important to VCM Traders
that no chart is ever studied or viewed without it. That’s because its power and reliability is unrivaled. No chart is a chart unless it is accompanied by this all-important technical indicator. We use it on every time frame or chart we look at. Here are the most important things to know about the 20ma and its proper use:
a) Trade with the 20ma - Most of your trades should be in sync with the 20ma. If the 20ma is rising in a smooth fashion, your focus should almost always be long. Conversely, if the 20ma is declining in a smooth fashion, your focus should almost always be short. If the 20ma is flat (f20ma), your focus should be to scalp with the VCM “bid and offer” approach.
b) Use as support & Resistance – If and when the 20ma is rising, it will serve as strong support. If the 20ma is declining, it will serve as strong overhead resistance. Look for buys at or near a r20ma. Look for sells/shorts at or near a d20ma.
c) Use as a median line – When a stock is consolidating in a sideways pattern, the 20ma will be flat and usually positioned right in the middle of the sideways trend. If and when this is the case, bidding for stock in a range below the f20ma and offering/shorting stock in a range above the f20ma is the game to play.
d) Use as a magnet – Stocks cannot remain extended too far above or below the 20ma. If and when stocks get too far, a violent snap back is eminent. This is when the VCM Trader can intelligently look to take advantage of a counter trend move .
Trading Tip: Literally, a VCM Trader can use the 20ma to earn his entire livelihood in the market.

ing 2) 200 Period Simple Moving Average (200ma) – The 200ma is so universally watched,
in all time frames, that for all practical purposes, it has become a self-fulfilling prophesy. So rarely do stocks fail to obey (get halted by) the 200ma that we’ve given it the highest nick-name of all, God. It’s power, force, and reliability are so great, that it truly is god-like. We use the 200ma on all micro time frames (1-, 2-, 5-, and 15-minute charts). Here are a few things that you must keep in mind regarding this mighty moving average:
a) Flatness is king: - While the 20ma is most powerful when it is rising and declining (trending), the 200ma is most powerful when it is flat (trend-less).
b) Use as support – Whenever a stock declines to a flat 200ma, it will almost always experience some form of rebound. If the rare cases in which it does not rebound, the stock is almost certain to at least stop (halt its decent) for a while.
c) Use as resistance – Whenever a stock rallies to a flat, overhead 200ma, it will almost always experience some form of retracement back down. If the rare cases in which it does not experience a reversal back down, the stock is almost certain to at least stop (halt its rally) for a while.
d) Use as a magnet – If a stock and its 20ma get too far above or below the 200ma, a major reversal is usually at hand. This is when the VCM Trader can look to take advantage of a counter trend move. In other words, it’s this scenario that allows for intelligently going against the prevailing trend.
Trading Tip: VCM Traders know that 200ma plays call for bigger positions

ing The Buy Methods:
1) Buy Green Bar Reversals (GBR) or Bottoming Tails (BTs) at or near the rising 20ma. – This is only to be done if the underlying stock is demonstratingthe “picture of power” to the upside (rising stock; rising 20ma above 200ma). The GBR must occur at or near the rising 20ma, otherwise its occurrence is not all that important. Tip: Breakouts can also be played at or near the r20ma.
2) Buy Green Bar Reversals (GBR) at or near the flat 200ma. – This is only done if the stock has fallen back to the 200ma from a rather far distance. Gradual erosion back to the 200ma is not what we are looking for. A sudden drop or collapse back to a flat 200ma is what is preferred.
The Sell/Short Methods:
1) Sell/Short Red Bar Reversals (RBR) and/or Topping Tails (TTs) at or near the declining 20ma. – This is only to be done if the underlying stock is demonstratingthe “picture of power” to the downside (declining stock; declining 20ma below 200ma). The RBR must occur at or near the d20ma, otherwise its occurrence is not all that important. Tip: Breakdowns can also be played at or near the d20ma.
2) Sell/Short Red Bar Reversals (RBR) at or the flat 200ma. – This is only done if the stock has rallied back to the flat overhead 200ma from a rather far distance. A slow, gradual rise back to the 200ma is not what we are looking for. A sharp move back to a flat 200ma is what is preferred.
