00:02.770 --> 00:10.920
And this video, I'm going to talk about multiple time frame analysis, so when you're looking and trading

00:10.930 --> 00:19.600
a stock and this is especially true when you're talking about day trading, multiple time frame analysis

00:19.600 --> 00:22.300
is absolutely crucial.

00:22.990 --> 00:27.210
So the first thing you need to determine is what is the trend?

00:27.220 --> 00:35.260
In other words, is the market gradually going up like we see here on the Apple daily chart or.

00:36.160 --> 00:42.790
Is it gradually going down like we see here on the Deutsche Bank chart, you can see clearly over the

00:42.790 --> 00:49.030
course of the entirety of twenty eighteen so far, the market has certainly been selling Deutsche Bank.

00:49.690 --> 00:54.090
So that in and of itself gives you the overall bias.

00:54.640 --> 01:02.710
There's also something called consolidation, which you just simply timeframes of a cycle, if you will,

01:02.710 --> 01:05.210
where the stock really isn't going anywhere.

01:05.650 --> 01:10.510
So, for example, each one of these candles represents a day for a couple of months.

01:10.930 --> 01:12.820
Apple really didn't do anything.

01:13.030 --> 01:14.970
And that's called consolidation.

01:15.010 --> 01:16.510
This will dictate.

01:17.870 --> 01:22.490
Exactly how you approach a stock, if you will.

01:24.280 --> 01:30.610
One indicator that we will talk a lot about in this course is volume, you can click on indicators on

01:30.610 --> 01:34.360
the trading view platform and then go to volume.

01:34.360 --> 01:37.450
Just click on that and you're good to go.

01:37.450 --> 01:42.000
And you can see that the volume shows up at the bottom of the chart.

01:42.700 --> 01:44.200
It's color coded by the candle.

01:44.210 --> 01:46.240
So this was a green candle, for example.

01:46.240 --> 01:48.010
So that's a green bar.

01:48.550 --> 01:52.870
The higher a volume, the better off you're going to be, especially day trading.

01:53.290 --> 01:55.120
So watch what happens.

01:55.300 --> 01:57.370
This is an hourly chart of Apple.

01:58.170 --> 02:00.610
We go ahead and put that volume back on.

02:04.120 --> 02:09.800
You can see the volume lower, of course, because each one of these is an hour, not a day, but watch

02:09.800 --> 02:10.640
what happens.

02:11.300 --> 02:21.830
It shows on certain candlesticks much more volume, and then gives you an idea as to how the market

02:21.830 --> 02:28.670
participants truly participated in that particular candlestick, for example, gives you an idea of

02:29.030 --> 02:30.680
conviction, if you will.

02:33.390 --> 02:35.590
How to use multiple time frames?

02:35.610 --> 02:38.090
Well, that's essentially what we're looking at here.

02:38.100 --> 02:46.230
We're looking at a longer term uptrend and there is for those of you who know anything about patterns,

02:46.230 --> 02:48.620
there is a pennant forming, which is a bullish pattern.

02:49.140 --> 02:50.110
We're in an uptrend.

02:50.160 --> 02:55.740
So when you look to Apple on the short term charts and then this case, it's an hourly chart.

02:55.740 --> 03:00.660
It could be any time frame, 15 minutes, five minutes, whatever it is you're dealing with, you need

03:00.660 --> 03:07.080
to be looking for by signals, candlesticks that tell you, hey, it's time to get involved in hopefully

03:07.890 --> 03:11.800
with an extreme amount of volume as well that typically will lead the way.

03:12.060 --> 03:20.610
So now that we know what we want to do and which direction we want to take the chart, we then can ignore

03:21.360 --> 03:26.790
selling opportunities because we know that they are less likely to succeed over the longer term.

03:28.090 --> 03:36.400
When I mentioned previously that we were in an uptrend, then you start to look for signs perhaps like

03:36.400 --> 03:40.480
an inverted hammer here, that's a candlestick breaks to the upside.

03:40.780 --> 03:45.520
And once you break that, that's a good sign and you can see that we have gained from there.

03:45.520 --> 03:47.290
So that's just one example.

03:47.290 --> 03:51.970
And this is all based upon the fact that Apple has been rising over time.

03:52.750 --> 03:56.880
That means there's much more interest and much more volume to the upside.

03:56.890 --> 03:59.200
The larger institutions are getting involved.

03:59.680 --> 04:06.010
And therefore, even though it had been choppy for a couple of weeks, it's still over the longer term.

04:06.010 --> 04:10.870
On the early chart, as you can see, has paid to be long of Apple, not short.

04:11.110 --> 04:12.400
Here's a 15 minute chart.

04:12.400 --> 04:20.020
See, it looks pretty gruesome there, but when you start to fade out, it's a completely different

04:20.800 --> 04:21.410
scenario.

04:21.410 --> 04:27.820
And you can see that, again, even with these nasty pullbacks, it's still over the longer term, you

04:27.820 --> 04:31.210
continue to do better and remember to the upside.

04:31.210 --> 04:33.480
And remember, that's exactly what this is about.

04:33.490 --> 04:34.990
This is about playing the odds.

04:34.990 --> 04:35.980
You're never going to get it.

04:35.980 --> 04:36.610
All right.

04:37.060 --> 04:42.880
So as a quick example, before we cut out of this, you can see that there's a gap there.

04:42.880 --> 04:47.080
And when you blow through gaps, typically there's a lot of selling pressure there.

04:47.080 --> 04:50.020
And you can see that we did have a pretty negative move right there.

04:51.500 --> 04:55.350
When you return to the gap and you blow through it, that's a very bullish sign.

04:55.670 --> 05:02.000
So, for example, above two 24 might be a very interesting place to buy Apple because you have the

05:02.000 --> 05:04.130
weight of the market longer term with it.

05:04.460 --> 05:07.040
And it is a bullish technical signal.

05:07.280 --> 05:08.960
Again, though, volume helps.

05:09.290 --> 05:16.910
And I would urge you every morning before you start placing trades, look at the longer term charts

05:17.330 --> 05:24.200
and pay attention to whether we are with the trend or against the trend being against the trend.

05:24.200 --> 05:27.670
Really not a very smart thing to do.

05:28.690 --> 05:31.060
Deutsche Bank, as you can see, has broken down.

05:32.980 --> 05:40.180
Multiple times shooting star right into a gap, selling opportunity, but you could even go as far as

05:40.180 --> 05:46.600
going down to the one hour chart and start looking for selling opportunities at this point, if we blow

05:46.600 --> 05:48.480
through this gap, that would be a negative sign.

05:48.490 --> 05:50.840
Probably have short sellers coming into play.

05:51.250 --> 05:59.770
Now, I will point out volume is crucial on a multiple kinds of levels, not the least of which is getting

05:59.770 --> 06:00.880
in and out of the stock.

06:00.880 --> 06:07.420
As a day trader, you do not want something with a spread that's going to be five or 10 cent a less

06:07.420 --> 06:08.260
liquid stock.

06:08.260 --> 06:13.900
A day trader is going to want to be able to get in and out, not lose six ticks, trying to get filled.

06:14.470 --> 06:15.610
That's also important.

06:15.640 --> 06:21.940
So day traders tend to stick the larger stocks, such as Apple or the S.P.I or a JPMorgan, that type

06:21.940 --> 06:23.230
of stock.

06:23.740 --> 06:24.430
Stick around.

06:24.430 --> 06:27.790
We'll talk about support, resistance, trading strategies next.
