I think video tutorial, I am going to show you one of my favorite technical analysis approaches – “Top-Dow Analysis”

This is a really powerful technique you can use, especially on lower timeĀ  frames, to build value into your trades, and ultimately filter to good signals, from the bad signals.

This video game me an opportunity to demonstrate a good signal backed with top down analysis, and a bad, or ‘risky’ signal which was also highlighted with the top down approach.

I hope you enjoy.

    I have used this strategy too … what I want to know … from … the videos above EMA 8 and 21 are weakly … what are they used for? what I saw in the video … you don’t follow the trend between the two EMA

    Congratulations on taking a chance with that trade. I like the simplicity of your analysis. I wish it was always that simple.
    First, price may not be making higher highs and higher lows while still in an uptrend. So what do you do then?
    Second, your analysis assumed weekly uptrend, however, using your own definition of the trend on the daily chart, the weekly chart was in a downtrend. So how did you arrive to your assumption?
    Thanks for sharing and good trading!

    Dale, Thanks for the Tutorial!

    I’m retired, but playing with the idea of opening a small real account once I reach a reasonable confidence level.
    In the video you showed the Trade Panel you are using for the MT4 Platform. How could I get my hands on it? Seems it would be a helpful tool to have. Also, what are the two Moving Averages you’re using?
    Would appreciate a reply,
    Thank You,
    bill
