Where do you start when you first look at a stock chart? How do you classify all the conflicting signals, cut through the noise, and get straight to the point of what matters most? With so much information for the technical analyst to discover, new traders often do not know where to start or what should guide them. And if you should decide it might be a profitable trade, how do you enter, manage, and exit the trade most efficiently?
The Complete Trading Course answers the questions of traders from all experience levels and provides you with a specific pathway for analyzing your chart to find specific trading opportunities.
Built on time-tested price principles that winning traders have used for many years but have been buried under the information overload of today's high-speed, indicator-driven markets, The Complete Trading Course cuts through the theoretical aspects and esoteric information and highlights only the most important insights from a variety of disciplines. Unlike other books, it focuses on the logic behind the pattern, how it fits into the broader context on a price chart, and how to assess the integrated whole of the chart within the context of guiding price principles that underscore all trading decisions.
Perhaps most importantly, the book reveals specifics of trade execution tactics geared to the unique experiences and personality of the trader putting on the position--the "edge" that enables you to combine objective chart information with your own understanding and experience so that you can recognize a proper opportunity, manage it in real time, and exit the position properly without emotion negatively affecting your decision.
With a firm knowledge of foundational price principles, specific trade strategies for today's markets, information on edge and execution, and a clear understanding of trade set-ups, you will be fully equipped to take your trading to the next level and formulate your own personal strategies in a trading plan that will help you continue on your lifelong journey to trading success.
