[00:18] capital on your first deposit link in the description below now back to the video so first let me ask you a quick question have you ever encountered a situation where you took a buy position when the
[00:31] where you took a buy position when the price was on an uptrend only for that trend to reverse downwards which leaves you holding at the top if so i know it's frustrating because i've been there before
[00:43] and so after countless hours of research and back testing i actually found a strategy that you can use to predict these reversals because we're going to go very in depth in this video so first
[00:58] reversal trend direction like in this example we have an uptrend that switches to a downtrend then you got yourself a reversal simple
[01:14] is they think that because the price has gone too high then it's automatically going to reverse this is actually the wrong mindset to have because think about it
[01:26] if prices are going higher and higher it means that the upwards momentum is so if you tried shorting this market just because you thought it was too high then you're actually trading against a trend which is not a good idea
[01:39] remember prices can always continue higher so with that being said here are a couple of strategies that you can use to predict reversals before they happen the first one is called brick of
[01:52] the first one is called brick of structure and this is how it works so first in order to spot a reversal the first step is you want to find an existing trend and in this chart
[02:04] we actually spotted a clear uptrend here notice how the price is structured it formed higher highs while respecting this bottom level meaning we can also draw an upward trend line below it
[02:16] now here's what you need to remember as long as the price remains above the trend line it means that the uptrend is still valid so in order for us to find a reversal the price has to break the trend line
[02:28] first and so we want to wait until the price breaks the trend line as you can see here but be cautious just because the price broke out of the trend doesn't mean that a reversal will happen because
[02:42] the long-term trend is still up meaning that the price still has a chance to go back upwards so to confirm that the price will not go we need to wait for signs of momentum loss so let's let the price run
[02:57] loss so let's let the price run until we find a confirmation up and failed then it tried again and failed the second time which created a double top pattern here
[03:12] aren't strong enough to push the price back up so now we already have multiple reversal signals first we saw a brick of a trendline which means the price broke the uptrend
[03:25] structure and a double top pattern indicating a because buyers fail to push the price back up so all these factors combined has led us to believe that the trend is going to
[03:37] and so this is a good opportunity to take a short position and of course no strategy is 100 accurate so we need to make sure that our exit strategy is in place so for our stop loss we can place it
[03:52] which is slightly above the double top pattern and set your profit target pattern and set your profit target at 2 1 risk ratio and as you can see
[04:05] let's look at other variations of this technique so in this chart we spotted a clear uptrend as price is forming higher highs and below it we have multiple rejections meaning we can place an upwards trend
[04:19] line next we can see the price failed to make and formed a lower highs instead while also breaking the upwards trend line so this indicates that the upwards buying pressure is weakening
[04:34] back but again don't take any positions yet because remember the overall trend is still an uptrend so we still need further confirmation next we can see that the price tried
[04:49] pushing back up and failed now notice what the price is it formed lower highs and lower lows which means we now have a current downtrend so let's recap what we have currently
[05:02] we have momentum loss indicated by the price failing to form higher highs then we have a trendline breakout indicating that the uptrend structure and finally we have a current downtrend because prices forming lower highs and
[05:16] so all these factors combined has confirmed us that the trend has shifted and so this is a good opportunity to enter a short position and for your exit strategy you can place your stop loss at the nearest key level
[05:30] and set your profit target at 2 1 risk ratio and as you can see this ends up being another profitable trade what i just showed you is how we spot reversals if the price were to break out
[05:45] of a key level but remember prices don't move like this there are also scenarios where the price bounces off the key level instead to spot reversals which is using key levels and this is
[06:00] how it works the first step is we want to find a key level for the price to bounce off and in this case we actually spotted a resistance level up here because price went up hit and reversed
[06:13] is we want to wait for the price to approach that key level once again and as you can see we saw an uptrend approaching the resistance level but remember you cannot just assume that a reversal will happen
[06:28] because price can always break right so we need to have extra confirmation to make sure that the price will actually reject this key level and we can do that by looking for
[06:40] with the help of the stochastic indicator so first go to the indicator section type in stochastics settings i like to leave it as it is and just use
[06:55] the default settings so for this setup what we want to look while the stochastic is displaying overbought or oversold like in this example right here but again prices can still break right
[07:09] through even though the stochastic is that overbought so to confirm that there's actual downwards momentum at this area you want to wait for the sarcastic to cross below the overbought lines again
[07:21] and once this happens you can take a short position and just in case the trade fails we need to have our exit strategy ready so for our stop loss we can place it slightly above the key level
[07:34] the risk and as you can see this trade ended up being profitable now moving on to the third strategy for
[07:46] spotting reversals which is by using trend indicators like the exponential moving average and this is how it works so first go to the indicator section type in exponential moving average
[08:00] and apply two of it onto your charts and for the settings one by 20. so now you have two ema applied
[08:12] and the way we read this indicator is very simple if the line crosses above uptrending and if the line crosses below it indicates that the market is downtrending however for this version of the strategy
[08:27] we don't immediately take positions just because the ema crosses over because if the market is unarranged like this it signals so instead you want to use this
[08:40] a reversal and this is how you do it so again the is you want to find a key level for the and we actually spotted a resistance level up here as price goes up
[08:55] hit and reverse downwards next you want to wait for the price to approach the same key levels again and once the price approached it you use the ema to confirm the trend change at this area by waiting for the lines to
[09:10] and once this happens you can take a short position now for your exit strategy you can place your stop loss right where the ema crosses over and set your profit target at 2 1 risk
[09:23] ratio and as you can see so those are all the different strategies that you can use to spot reversals using the data trader technique now a
