4:09 you buy dips with confidence by scaling into a position gradually, always making sure you have enough cash in reserve to drive down your average price such that when it turns you are profitable quickly. That is what the smart money does - accumulate as price falls. If I have done my job, ONE candle of opposite color puts me in the money so I am selling when price rises.
the time value lost by this wait and accumulate approach is immense as there are winners elsewhere running like crazy while we wait for our stocks turn to rise ,which frankly ,may or may not happen...can be an approach for multi month/year investors but time value is worth its weight in gold for short swing traders..
Not so sure since I do this on quite short time frames and find all price action to be about the same, and it also suggests that an optimized buy/sell approach is inferior to the time cost of searching for a better opportunity. In every other area of life I find the opposite to be true - it's better to Do What Works than wasting energy trying to glom onto What Looks Easy - not saying you are suggesting that, but frankly a trader doing nothing but massaging holdings of, say SPXL and SPXL can build a whole career on just that one thing. And if that is true, what do you gain by wasting energy trying to find a better way? Answer : Sometimes you DO find a better way, so it IS worth exploring, which of course is why I watched this video in the first place. What I would assert from your argument is that waiting for the rise which might not happen is nonsense. Price ALWAYS eventually retraces to > 50% of the previous run, so it's a question of whether you can afford to wait. With volatile ETFs like the ones I mentioned (or, say, LABU/LABD) you see opportunities for 3-6% moves literally every single day on a 5m time frame, so, I mean, how much more do you want? The flaw in my approach is Martingale hell, the odd case where a single impulse is so tenacious that you run out of $ or are compelled to chicken out before the retracement finally commences. @@learn-2-earnn
Richard, with the start of a NY and Brian being just brilliant, how about getting him on again soon to get his updated thoughts? His book is fantastic too.
"Great video! I'm thinking, what if we could find a way to correlate this information with news or earnings announcements? It could help us pinpoint the timing more effectively. Or perhaps set up some kind of alert system. After all, we all got into trading to save time and not stare at charts or have anxiety about when the move will be. Surely, the Wall Street guys are doing something like this, but I don't know. What are your guys thoughts on this idea?"
Love the simplicity of this VWAP strategy. I’d never considered this indicator but it looks like it’s lining up nicely with the ‘cheat’ style breakouts I often punt on, just with added supply / demand logic. I’m going to try it out. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Brian. Thanks again Richard. GLTA in 2024.
I don’t get it that traders don’t look deep enough into PA/candle sticks. I mean really look for pattern recognition over multiple candles sometimes. It will tell you what price wants to do. You should read the whole book to understand a story not just skim through it. The trend is your friend if these patterns happen in areas of interest and maybe rsi is below/above 25/75 as confluence on a smaller time frame for example that’s going to work.
Yes … when im ready on daily/weekly to look to enter …. I go to 1h and wait for continuation flag or box pattern… Majority of time if daily want to do breakout ,1h hour will form additional continuation pattern to confirm it… So you will get doubble time frame breakouts which natural has increase trade probability so much… Similar to contraction volatility pattern from Mark Minevini that he looks on daily
I struggle placing a stop loss. And often breaks above the vwap is a fake out(resistance). How much more likely is the trade likely to succeed if it coincides with a 20 or 50 day moving average? I have your book, I’m addicted to my phone and haven’t made it through yet 😂
Then you don't want it bad enough. Being addicted to your phone rather then perfecting a money making skill is utterly pathetic. Listen to the chat with traders interview with Dan Shapiro, he's my mentor, and who I trade alongside every single day. Our strategy is moving averages, so if that peaks your interest, listen to his interview, and check out his TH-cam channel Access a trader.

I have learned so much from Brian!! Thank you both 😊
Of course! Happy to have Brian on anytime he can. Always take away a few tips when he presents!
Awesome guys. Brian's books have been a huge positive influence on my trading. I recommend them for everyone.
Thanks! We're happy Brian was able to present during last years conference!
I use avwal alot. After listening Brain. I m feeling like someone putting out my thoughts on avwap.
Great 👏
We're glad you enjoy it! Brian's a great teacher of the concept.
Richard, with the start of a NY and Brian being just brilliant, how about getting him on again soon to get his updated thoughts? His book is fantastic too.
Great talk - very timely as I've had this on my mind - how to separate / manage my long positions vs short-term trading for income. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for sharing your Knowledge.
You're welcome! Glad you liked it!
There are many examples of this setup this past week. Nvda, anet, ddog,four,elf, and many more
3 of those names are on my list. Already own NVDA and looking to add.
@@khafreahmose8768 i dont own four anymore. need more nvda and anet
I agree, I have been trading for a long time and I avoid indicators, only focus on price action
One of the best presentations I have seen. Thank you very much for putting this together
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great work Brian and Richard ! That may just be the missing link for many technical analysts to improve their game 👍

It’s hard to believe a vwap breakout is less than 5% away from the nearest low. Especially on a weekly chart pattern…more likely 10-15%.
Its a difficult skill to learn awap dynamics but if u work hard and get a hold over it, its a magic tool for short term swing traders ...
Careful calling anything "magic" in the markets. VWAP is a tool to define risk and build an edge in the markets, but nothing is guaranteed.
@@TraderLion yeah I agree ...
