Candlestick Strategy:

"Engulfing Pattern"

Covered in this video:

1

Two Types of Engulfing Patterns

The perfect bullish engulfing pattern will engulf both the opening and closing of the previous day, as well as the highs and lows of the previous day. On a bullish key reversal, you must close above the highs of the prior day.  The same goes for the bullish engulfing pattern. And think about the fear that goes on in people's minds as the stock, the next day, eclipses the highs of the previous day, but then closes below the low of the previous day. If you witness this type of price action, there is a higher probability that the stock is about to make a move in that respective direction. Engulfing days are also called outside reversal days. Look for where these patterns occur at historical resistance or support levels. Knowing these resistance and support levels are where your edge will come as a trader. You can look for these engulfing patterns either intraday, or on the daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Bottom Third And Upper Third Explosions

These formations are most effective during continuation breaks that occur at the bottom third of a down trend, or the upper third of an uptrend.

Netted 10k in 30 days

Thanks so much for your perspective. I've probably netted about $10k in the 30 days since I've started using your service--which is awesome for me. Just wanted to pass along my thanks.

I made the right choice. Worth every penny.

Hey Bob,
I have to say I am impressed with the way you strategize. Within the past year I have stopped impulse buying and selling intraday. The saving on commissions alone offsets much of my membership fee. Your insight and analysis are truly outstanding. I made the right choice by upgrading to Gold Level as your bearish analysis on (CMG) saved me countless amounts of dollars. Worth every penny.
