Trade Repeating Patterns

Summary: Price is the result of a change in supply or demand. The crowd follows the leaders and creates repeating price patterns you can spot and follow. We share some insight in this article that will change your approach to trading.

When the price is the result of the interaction between buyers and sellers, we have four dimensions of measuring the happening:

  • Frequency of Change or Statistical Volatility
  • Number of transactions or Volume
  • Price Development over Time or Timeless
  • Peaks and Valleys as Overall Patterns
NeverLossTrading Dimensions

The theory of BenoƮt Mandelbrot gave us a headway to consider trading decisions that are time-based and timeless (purely price-based). Let us share how we translated this different way of plotting a happening into finding trades at crucial price turning points and in continuation patterns.

Base Theory

A repeating calculation is performed based on the behavior of using the happening of now as starting values in a repeating, or iterating calculation. The result of each iteration is used as the starting values for the next. The values are checked during each iteration to see whether they have reached a critical “trade” condition, or “bailout”. If a trade condition is reached, the calculation is stopped, and a potential signal is drawn on the chart, spelling out the next potential value to be reached and the statistical volatility to get to the examined target value without getting stopped on a high likelihood.

Four dimensions are hard to draw, however, we hope we found a good graphical expression in the feature picture of this article.

Natural Model

Collective behavior creates cycles that repeat themselves; however, they are not repetitive in their frequency or rate of change, and this is where most mathematical models fail by assuming a constant phase of repetitiveness, while the re-shuffling phase in actuality is random; however, it is forecastable by using the theory explained above. Considering the history and going back to the school of Pythagoras (570 BC –490 BC) thoroughly: everything in nature is connected. The movement of one thing generates harmonic associations with all other things in the system. The key to revealing the truth behind these natural associations is observation and mathematics. The Natural associations of price change create patterns: “The pattern is said to emerge as a result of discontinuities in the perpetual processes of price expansion and contraction of the observed asset. According to this, human behavior is not random and creates predictable reactions in the whole market: collective human behavior forms a specific repeating pattern that unfolds through time or in the price action. Group behavior creates a distinct trading pattern, and by letting a computer algorithm with an AI component calculate where the pattern appears next, you can make high probability forecasts regarding when a price movement is starting and where it is heading.

To be able to let our models provide a highly accurate forecast, we consider the following:

  • We only trade active markets and assets. An active market means a liquid market where the bid/ask spreads are tight, making entry and exit easy. In addition, it is more difficult to manipulate an active market, which means forecasting becomes more reliable. Hence we developed a solid set of assets we categorize for our subscribers in the area of Stocks and their options tradability, Futures, and FOREX.
  • Trade along with rising and falling patterns, and we share those in our mentorships with you, helping you to experience the market from a totally new perspective.
  • Trading at solid opportunities only, avoid highly frequent trading that lets you accept mediocre opportunities. In addition, a great number of trades increases transaction costs.
  • Limit your risk by not allocating more than 5% of your trading capital to a single position.
  • Hold your trades to target and do not second guess your system: hardcode entry, exit, and stop decisions.
  • Journal your trades to create a scorecard, telling you what worked and what did not.

You will find more details in further articles we published on our blog. Following these principles, you will act as follows with NeverLossTrading:

  • You only act on confirmed signals when other market participants confirm the direction spelled out by the system. For example, our systems spell out a critical buy- or sell price, and you enter a position when the price threshold is surpassed in the price movement of the next candle.
  • At entry, the system defines a target price to close the transaction: Dot on the chart.
  • The stop is also defined at entry and gives the price an adequate wiggle-room to proceed to target with a high likelihood: Red Crossbar or line on the chart.

First, let us choose a time-based example: Jeff is a stock trader who waits for the right moment and then acts. He understands that the current environment is best for shorter-term-oriented trades (holding for a couple of days). Jeff combines NLT Top-Line and HF signals, works from an IRA, and buys puts according to the NLT Delta Force Options Trading Concept when going short and goes long through buying stocks. He liked our recent article: “The Trader Who Waits,” and responded: In his last 12 trades, he won 10 (high probability). Jeff has been a NeverLossTrading client since 2014, he does his own market analysis with the help of the NLT Top Line Scanners and the NLT Watch List Indicators, and we are in frequent contact.

Here are three examples of trades he conducted, and you will understand why we say: Trade what you see, let the chart tell when to buy or sell:

Daily NLT Top-Line Chart for UNH

Situation-1: UNH combined two NLT Sell signals: Sell < $467.26. The purple signal identified a price move potential after a time of directional price ambiguity (NLT Purple Zone). The red signal is an NLT Power Tower signal. The power tower stands tall and points in a direction. The exit was at the purple dot on the chart. The signal combination came on June 13, 2022, and came to target on June 16, 2022.

Situation-2: On June 21, a strong signal combination announced a 2-SPU price move potential, and the trade came to target on June 28, 2022

Daily NLT Top-Line Chart for COST

Situation-1:  On June 21, the COST chart shows an NLT Top-Line buy signal: Buy > $464.82, and the trade came to target on June 24, 2022.

Situation-2: On July 14, 2022, COST had an NLT Top-Line signal again: Buy > $513.27, and the trade came to target on July 18, 2022.

Daily NLT Top-Line Chart for MCK

On June 21, MCK combined two NLT Top-Line signals: blue and orange. The orange signal helps us find tops or bottoms and announces a 2-SPU price move potential carried out to target-2 on the chart and reached by June 27, 2022.

Jeff understands that individual stock price moves are either overall market correlated, like go with the S&P 500, or happen uncorrelated (unique stock price move). He prefers unique and uncorrelated stock price moves and finds the setups with the help of the NeverLossTrading Top-Line Scanners on his own created list of stocks that represent strong stocks in market sectors of demand.

Next, we pick a day trading example and a timeless chart where candles construct purely price-based. On the charts, we combine NLT Top-Line, NLT Trend Catching and NLT Timeless Indications, demonstrating how to find high probability setups by combining signal indications: multiple system indicators validate a high probability setup. We pick a swing trading chart first, where the average holding time of a position is about one to five days.

The timeless chart setup relates risk to reward in an acceptable ratio, producing arrangements complying with the system probability for a positive statistical expectation value.

We operate pure mechanical with buy-stop and sell-stop orders, where trades only get validated with the entry price threshold being surpassed in the next candle; stop, and exit is system-defined at entry. We take an entry signal when the following happens:

  • The frame around the price movement changes from blue to red or red to blue.
  • An NLT signal occurs at the crucial momentum change and spells out buy> or sell<, and the price movement of the next candle validates this by surpassing the set price threshold.

NLT Timeless Chart for /ES, July 13 to 19, 2022

Each price situation on the chart is suitable for a 25-point price move or a value change of the underlying contract of $1,250.

The red crossbar on the signal specifies the stop level, and if you are trend trading instead of trading for a momentum price move, the red line of the frame around the price move (NLT Double Decker) specifies the trailing stop.

In the shared chart, all signals came to target; however, we assume a system probability at or above 65% to forecast the future price movements.

There are additional signals on the chart that either help to take more trades or add to the target, which we neglect in this example. 

We apply purely mechanical rules while you learn how to qualify higher and lower probability setups in our mentorship.

Situation-1: Sell < $3801,30, July 13, at 8:30 a.m. The signal was validated in the price movement of the next candle, and the trade came to target the same day.

Situation-2: Buy > $3813, July 13, at 10.31 a.m.: A validated signal reached its target between 12:51 p.m. and 1:31 p.m.

Situation-3: Sell < $3788.50, July 13, at 3:50 p.m., validated at the opening candle at 6 p.m., and the trade came to target between 4:38 a.m. and 8 a.m.

Situation-4: Buy > $3766.50, July 14 at the 11: 08 a.m. candle, validated and came to target the same day.

There are additional signals and opportunities to catch trades along the tend move, which we are happy to share in a demonstration with you (ask for our summer special):

In the next step, we pick a day trading example where we are trading for about seven points or a price change of the underlying contract of $350. Again, we take trades purely mechanical, while you will learn in our mentorships how to qualify situations and trade at higher rather than lower likelihood situations

NLT Timeless Day Trading Chart for the /ES

Between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. that day, nine potential trade situations were painted by the NLT Indicators on the chart: six winners and three losing trades: 67% probability.

Let us share an example of a day trader who combines systems and trades at crucial price turning points.

Steve focuses on trading the E-Mini S&P 500 Futures and the Crude Oil Futures Contract. His preferred trading time is 7 a.m. to noon. He was used to trading very short time-frames, acting on about eight to ten trade constellations per day, and was constantly monitoring and working with open positions. His success was random. We introduced him to the NLT Timeless Concept combined with NLT Trend Catching and NLT Top-Line to form his decisions. We kept his focus on trading those two futures contracts daily, where he had his experience (why bend an arm when the preferred asset to trade provides enough trading opportunities). Instead of monitoring each transaction, he now walks away and lets the trade come to target or, at times, stop (losing is part of winning). He, on average, conducts a maximum of two to four transactions per day and finishes his trading day around noon, winning 70% of his trades, journals, and controls. You find a specific article on measuring and controlling trading success on our blog.

His focus is on two signal combinations:

  • NLT Buy, Sell with Floating, which reports when a price leaves a prior price containment area.
  • NLT Buy_T, Sell_T, which indicates an early price turning point.
  • He sets bracket orders two ticks above/below the set price threshold: Sell < $4203 will only lead to trade when the price reaches two ticks below; hence, he can operate with a sell-stop at $4202.50. If this price level is not reached in the price movement of the next candle, no trade will be initiated.
  • A gray dot specifies the trade exit on the chart, the stop by a red crossbar. By using bracket orders, target and stop get established at order entry.

The Trader Who Waits

 Summary: Trading and investing require an in-depth analysis before deciding to risk your money. Long-term, you only strive for solid returns when you have the patience to wait for the right moment to trade.

In all other businesses, aside from trading, increasing the frequency of actions increases the probability of creating a higher income. Read on and watch the video.

Trade at Perfect Moments Only!

Let me pick an example:

A salesperson who presents services to six clients daily has a 100% higher expectation value than one who offers three times a day, assuming both have the same abilities and density of customers.

Hence, our mindset is conditioned: when you work more, you produce more.

True or true?

Following this conclusion, people apply their typical success pattern to trading, and this is where the trouble starts:

  • Accepting lower probability setups increases the loss rate by trading every opportunity.
  • Substantially higher losses than gains.
  • Discretionary decision on entry and exit, instead of hardcoded entry, exit, and stop decisions.
  • Acting predicable, so your stops get stolen.

We can further elaborate; however, we are here to talk about what works, and as such, we want to share what is needed to be a successful trader:

  1. Trade Qualification over High Frequency

Successful traders find signal combinations that forecast the future price movements of assets with a high likelihood. They focus on what they do best and repeat proven success. It is not the frequency of participating in trades but the qualification process of combining multiple indications to accept high probability setups solely.

On their charts, they look for the following:

  • Signals that indicate and print critical price turning points on the chart and act upon them. Do you have proven success in operating and conducting those?
  • Combined signals to increase forecast accuracy when analyzing a price projection. By that, they increase the likelihood of an accurate prediction.

2. Mechanical instead of Discretionary Decisions

Many traders act discretionary; however, those actions are hard to specify and repeat; hence we encourage you to work by mechanical rules for entry and exit and share the details in our examples.

3. Risk Limiting Trading

The probability of your system defines how much risk you can take:

  • By choosing risk-limiting strategies, you prevent drawdowns.
  • Combining risk limiting and leveraging methods allows trading for extra income.
  • Working with strategies that let you participate in price moves to the up and downside allows you to trade in any market environment.
  • Choosing decision-making times or strategies must fit your life circumstances and the account type.

4. Predictability

Most trades are time-based decisions, where it is pretty obvious where your stops will sit. Hence, we developed the NLT Timeless Concept that proposes all actions purely price based, helping you to act less predictable and independent to not making obvious choices by being in and out of positions faster than other market participants.

Hence, you want to be the trader who waits until the perfect moment is there, and only then do you act. However, this implies that your system gives you a solid participation rate of trading opportunities, so it is not just a wait game.

Here are the variables and the actions your trading system needs to give:

The first charts we share will combine NLT Top-Line, NLT Trend Catching and NLT Timeless Indications, demonstrating how to find high probability setups by combining signal indications: multiple system indicators validate a high probability setup. We pick a swing trading chart first, where the average holding time of a position is about one to five days. By acting purely price based, your trading strategy will not easily expose where your stop is placed, taking care of point 4: predictability.

The timeless chart setup relates risk to reward in an acceptable ratio, producing arrangements complying with the system probability for a positive statistical expectation value.

We operate pure mechanical with buy-stop and sell-stop orders, where trades only get validated with the entry price threshold being surpassed in the next candle; stop, and exit is system-defined at entry.

Acting with NLT Timeless setups takes all the headaches of deciding for three out of four crucial success variables out of the cohesion, and you just qualify your entry signals:

In this first example, we take an entry signal when the following happens:

  • The frame around the price movement changes from blue to red or red to blue.
  • An NLT signal occurs at the crucial momentum change and spells out buy> or sell<, and the price movement of the next candle validates this by surpassing the set price threshold.

NLT Timeless Chart for /ES, July 13 to 19, 2022

NLT Timeless Swing Trading Chart for the E-Mini S&P 500 Futures Contract

Each price situation on the chart is suitable for a 25-point price move or a value change of the underlying contract of $1,250.

The red crossbar on the signal specifies the stop level, and if you are trend trading instead of trading for a momentum price move, the red line of the frame around the price move (NLT Double Decker) specifies the trailing stop.

In the shared chart, all signals came to target; however, we assume a system probability at or above 65% to forecast the future price movements.

There are additional signals on the chart that either help to take more trades or add to the target, which we neglect in this example.

Situation-1: Sell < $3801,30, July 13, at 8:30 a.m. The signal was validated in the price movement of the next candle, and the trade came to target the same day.

Situation-2: Buy > $3813, July 13, at 10.31 a.m.: A validated signal reached its target between 12:51 p.m. and 1:31 p.m.

Situation-3: Sell < $3788.50, July 13, at 3:50 p.m., validated at the opening candle at 6 p.m., and the trade came to target between 4:38 a.m. and 8 a.m.

Plan Your Trade and Trade Your Plan

Summary: Successful traders follow a structure, plan what they do, understand that they act under uncertainty, and leave nothing to chance. We share a guideline of what to do.

Everybody comes to trading with a plan, but what to do if a loss hits you?

Understand and accept that you work in an environment with no 100% certainty that the trade will work your way. Do not confuse winning and losing trades with good and bad trades, according to plan or not. A good trade can lose money, and a bad trade can make money; what determines good and bad is if you apply and stick with clear-cut principles.

Trading with an Edge

You need a trading plan to wade through the treacherous waters of a volatile market and come out with your P&L and dignity intact.

A trading plan can help you to take advantage of market volatility. However, there is no guarantee that a trading plan will make you successful. But you will almost certainly fail if you do not have one.

Having and following a plan is an ambiguous topic that many people struggle with, and we want to share some examples of how you can plan your trade and trade your plan.

Most people are terrified to make a trading plan because you are accountable and responsible for the results once you commit to a plan. After all, as humans, we prefer to avoid taking responsibility when things don’t go our way. However, when you have a plan that tells you what you can and cannot do, you have no choice but to take responsibility.

A plan is essential to reach your trading goals long-term. Having a plan will allow you to move forward systematically:

  • You will be able to notice what is working and do more of it.
  • You will also detect and eliminate what isn’t working from your trading.

In essence: what you can measure, you can control.  

Does that not mean you need to document or journal your trades: an administrative effort many shy off, but a necessary evil. We will also give you an example of this.

We help our clients to have two critical plan elements in place for their trading:

An Action Plan, which is a real case, is more specific, but let us focus on critical elements:  

  • Define the markets, Instruments and time frames to trade: I trade the liquid futures market preferred as a day trader focused on the E-Mini S&P 500 Contract and Crude Oil futures.
  • The Basis of Your Decision Making (system and indicators):

I am using and following the NLT Timeless Concept and Indicators from NLT Top-Line and Trend Catching that help me find key price turning points. My preferred trades are momentum changes, indicated by the NLT Double Decker Change with pre-ceding volume and strong NLT Signals like PowerTower, Floating, and T-Signal.

During the hours of 3 a.m. to 3 p.m. EST, I will use the NLT main-hour timeless increment and, at other times, the off-hour increment. When an NLT Purple Zone appears, no new trades will be opened, and existing orders will be closed. This way, I have no bios when I start in the market; I let the chart tell when to buy or sell and trade what I see!

  • Trade Mechanics: For order entry, I will use Buy-Stop and Sell-Stop bracket orders with system-specified price intervals that are either closed at target or stop. This way, I follow system-specific entry, exit, and stop conditions.

Financial Plan which spells out:

  • By my system, I want to achieve a minimum of 65% winners and journal my trades to ensure that I stick to the action plan and financial plan. Then, after every 20 transactions, I do a revision to check and balance the plan to actual.
  • Validated goals and objectives: I want to make $1,000 per week, day trading one contract of the /ES.
  • Define money and risk management: my average income per trade is $500, and my maximum risk per trade is $600.
  • When I achieve two winners in a row, I fold for the day, the same when I have two losing trades.

Those plans we write with our clients, and in more than ten years in business, those plans never were the same.

Why is that?

The affinity to assets, the available time, the risk tolerance, the mix of trades, and so on have never been the same. So when you consider that you can trade Stocks, Options, Futures, and FOREX with our systems and then combine this with individual wants and needs, it gives the answer and why we work one-on-one with our clients at their best available times.

Let us share two trade examples for day traders, one where the trader prefers to trade the hours between 2 p.m. and 10 p.m. EST. Another for a trader who focuses on 7 a.m. to noon. In both cases, you will see an NLT Timeless Chart with NLT Trend Catching, and NLT SPU Move Indicators. The traders combine systems for a higher participation rate. Time-based charts focus on system-defined price increments that keep risk and reward in an acceptable balance; you trade at crucial price turning points that offer enough time to set your buy-stop and sell-stop orders. Orders only go to the exchange when your system formulated price threshold is surpassed in the next candle: You see the crucial price threshold on the NLT Dashboard in the development of the candle.

Situation-1: The entry-level price threshold of Sell_SPU < $3787.50 was confirmed in the price movement of the next candle and led to a trade to target, red dot on the chart. Trading for a price change of about $450 per contract.

Situation-2: Buy SPU > $3756 led to a trade and was followed by a Floating Buy-Signal that allowed to increase the target to the gray dot on the chart, trading for an $850 price change per contract.

Situation-3: Sell_SPU < $3758.50 was confirmed in the price movement of the next candle. The floating sell signal allowed for a target increase for a price change of $850. 

In the following example, we find the early morning hours of June 22 and show four trade situations: three winners and one loss.

How did the day continue?

We take the chart from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and map out winning and losing trades, accepting trades purely mechanical, while you will learn in our mentorships how to qualify them. On the records for June 22, 2022, were eight trades; seven were winners.

In retrospect, this all looks simple, but trust our experience, executing these trades and bringing them to target without the need to interfere is a challenge for every trader.

One of our clients said: “since I trade with NLT Top-Line, Trend Catching and Timeless, I can execute the trade, walk away and let the system do its thing; prior, I had to control every transaction by my fear of losing taking over my emotions.”

When you are a stock trader, let us share an example of a widely liked and well tradable stock: AAPL. We put AAPL on the NLT Daily chart and leave it up to you to find the buy and sell signals and think about if you had invested the way the chart spelled out the opportunities and your results. In case you trade out of an IRA, short selling strategies are not applicable, but you can produce gains to the short side by the NLT Delta Force concept, where you learn how you can benefit from trading options.

Consider that the spelled out price threshold had to be confirmed in the price movement of the next candle. Hence, the chart had six trading opportunities, where one got stopped and made a loss (Buy signal on 4-28-22).

Options trading with the NLT Delta Force concept is a solid opportunity for risk-limiting and high-leverage trade participation.

With the NLT Delta Force Concept, you learn:

  • Picking the strike price with the highest rate of return
  • Choosing an adequate time to expiration
  • Knowing the maximum price, you can pay for a single options contract
  • If the options price is above the top, how to change the trading strategy to debit or credit spreads
  • Decide from the charts of NLT Top-Line and hold positions for one to ten days

Here is an example of a day trading journal that gives feedback on how a trader using our systems performed:

You can only control what you can measure: The worst trader has winning trades, and some celebrate those rather than managing their average wins and overall profitability.

Day traders deal with a probability; there is no 100% winning strategy, but you need to map out what works, and this is what you focus on, leaving aside what did not work, period!

We provide pre-fab journals to our subscribers to enter their trades and review them after a set of twenty transactions to see:

  • Did you comply with the rules of your system?
  • Which indicator and setup gave you the highest returns and which did not?
  • Did you hold your trade to target or bail out early?

Let us share an example of how and what such a statistic can look like. The results are from a trader that uses NLT Top-Line, Trend Catching and Timeless. Journaling a trade takes about 30 seconds on our template. Most people hate documentation and administration; however, you will see that this time is well invested in a moment. We also recommend taking a trade entry screenshot to compare in the aftermath if what you thought you traded was what the chart was telling. Trading is a lot about mind control and focus: We see with our brain: all our emotions, past experiences, and influences often paint a different picture from what is there. It will get obvious when discussing the results.

NLT Day Trading Journal Example

NeverLossTrading Journal

Feedback from the NLT Day Trading Journal

  • The trader conducted 58 Trades and produced $2,303 of income but wasted a lot of profit by exiting trades early and not at the system-defined target. The trader fell into the typical trap of overwriting the system, which gave him less income than not touching the trade during its duration.
  • The new trader achieved a high winning percentage of 72%, complying with the system expectations.
  • In 17 trades that went positive, the trader left money on the table by exiting early because of his fear of losing.
  • Setting stops tighter than the system proposed and entering late in a trade accounted for 8 out of 58 transactions (14%) and showed room for improvement.
  • The overall indicator performance was on spec; however, the Buy/Sell_T performance had a too high average loss compared to the average win by leaving the trade early on winners and accepting the max loss when the trade did not work.
  • The highest income-producing indicator was the Floating signal (part of the NLT Timeless Concept).

In summary: The trader still does not trust the system and is scared to follow the set instructions (43% negative performance); even so, the average indicator performance was 72%. Hence, he should walk away after trade entry and come back to see the result, keeping his hands off the computer while being in a trade.

We hope this example demonstrates how a scorecard helps to analyze that you trade your plan to achieve solid and constant returns.

The examples we picked hopefully give you an insight into rule-based trading, where the system formulates specific entry, exit, and stop conditions.
