watched 3 videos from different presenters. I can actually understand Cameron's explanation and use this indicator with ease. He focuses on the green line and it finally came to me on how this MarketForcast is constructed. A good teacher makes a world of differences.
Often after I ponder something, in this case, The Market Forecast indicator, Trader Talks presents a lesson that addresses the issue. And, as is your style, the lecture is most informative and the erudition is tops! Thank you, Cameron May, for the hard work that goes into making this lecture!
Ken Rose wrote an excellent study to mark the clusters when all three are below 20 and when intermediate goes above 20 . He also suggests when green line above 80 on spx then consider overall market is Bull.
Great presentation and have used it a couple of times to buy, Comcast, STT, GILD and I shall see how it works out. I think it is a great tool to give you some investing timing on stocks you want to own. I am wondering if there is a way to set the program to identify the cluster formation in a given set of stocks.
Good luck with those trades! And as for an automated system for identifying clusters, Ken Rose covered just that topic in this video: th-cam.com/video/WYafXfdSqjE/w-d-xo.html. Thanks for watching, and enjoy Ken's webcast! ^CM
Your TSLA example shows the danger of using this indicator just before earnings. That stop loss order would have been filled at about 190 resulting in a 30 point loss rather than a 16 point loss. It's probably best to use options if entering based on this signal if close to an earnings announcement.
Yep, stop orders are never a guarantee of a specific execution price, and earnings can certainly put an exclamation point on that risk. How a trader chooses to handle this is, of course, left to their preference. But in any case, thanks for the feedback, and thanks for watching! ^CM
No one can forecast the market. To call stochastic a market forecaster is irresponsible beyond belief. I traded professionally for 25 years. It’s not a game and you will lose your $ listening to stuff like this. Retail investors are the last to know what’s happening in the market. Always. You’ll be subject to 10% losses in a matter of minutes if you’re not sitting in front of a screen 7 hours per day.
Thanks for the suggestion! As for having an automated 20 line, I only draw that in to provide a visual illustration for my audience; it's not actually necessary for the usage of the indicator. For example, when I use it, I confirm the precise location of each of the oscillators with a quick glance at their numerical values, which are displayed to the second decimal point in the left corner of the study pane. In any event, thanks for watching! ^CM
Hey Cameron, love the study, wondering if that horizontal line 20 can be as an default , which means if I change the symbol that 20 is there that I don't need to plot again?! I tried everything but seems to me if I change the symbol every and each time I need to enter 20 line level !!! Please help me with that !!
To clarify, this line does not usually appear by default on the chart. I drew it in only as a visual reference point. To confirm precise oscillator values, one can simply hover over the day in question and glance at the numerical values in the upper left of the indicator window. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
Excellent presentation nicely articulated! I was wondering if this indicator can be used for selling (like over bought condition) when the cluster occurs above 80?
Conceptually, yes, although it has been my experience that failed signals are common in a persistently bullish market. And as always, performance is never guaranteed on any particular trade. ^CM
Some traders do use the indicator in just that way; however, it has been my experience that this approach does tend to generate a lot of premature signals in a persistent bullish market. In any case, thanks for watching! ^CM
Happy to clarify! Currently, no individual stocks offer daily options expirations. Rather, this is limited to just a few of the major U.S. indices (S&P, Russell, Nasdaq) and their ETFs. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
Cameron, When I added this study and followed along through the video, initially my momentum line was green and intermediate line was red. I changed them, but why would my settings present them incorrectly? My concern is other studies I add may also have the wrong colors when I initially add them. Thanks!
You may want to call Support at 800-435-4000 to walk through your settings with you. I'm afraid I'd only be guessing what the cause might be. But in any case, thanks for watching! ^CM
Good question, and it certainly can matter greatly! In general, a trader will place the greatest emphasis on the timeframe of chart that most closely suits their preferred trade approach (some traders prefer rapid signals and shorter trade timeframes so they'll tend to use shorter charts, while others prefer fewer and slower signals, and they will thus tend to favor longer chart timeframes.) This decision is ultimately left to the trader's personal discretion. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
Is this best used with the 1 day 1 year chart? Google just showed up with all 3 lines below 20 on March 6th, but if I switch to different time frames then the 3 lines are no longer below 20.
"Best" is a loaded term, but this tool can be conceptually applied to any timeframe. No timeframe is a guarantee of performance on any given trade, of course. And you're correct: Changing timeframes changes the construction of the indicator, so signals will be faster on shorter timeframes, and slower on longer. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
Thank you for this information. It seems to me that using clusters as an entry for a stock like AIG that has had only one cluster and a near miss would be much more reliable than using a cluster on a stock like TSLA which has had six or seven clusters this year. Can you confirm that the more clusters a stock has during the year, the less reliable clusters become as an indicator?
Happy to clarify! Some traders actually see frequent clusters as a sign of persistent technical weakness in a stock, and may then first seek to confirm a stronger uptrend before looking to the next bullish cluster for entry signals. In any event, no technical signal is a guarantee of performance on any given trade. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
This can be done with a custom script, but you can also confirm each oscillator's current numeric value with a quick glance to the upper left-hand corner of the Market Forecast study's display window. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
I might be totally off in this but, would there be any advantage to selling an at the money put or a put that is just inside the money at the formation of a cluster? Then if assigned the shares selling a call at the previous peak? Just sounding this out.
Conceptually, that would be consistent with the typical interpretation of both technical signals. Of course, no signal is a guarantee of performance on any given trade. Thanks for watching! ^CM
I don't have data that is publicly available, but a trader can quickly test just about any new indicator using historical charts on thinkorswim. And in any case, thanks for watching! ^CM
Cameron, i am on street edge now and iam able to have 3 screens open from edge,,1-positions--1-options -another showing hi volume poppers, how do i set that or duplicate that on TOS-i micro scalp SPY, with calls speed is important. may do 50-100 trades in hour..ty
Glad to help! To accomplish this, you'll need to look for the "Detach" function in the "Show actions menu" (looks like three dots and three dashes) for the field you'd like to separate from the thinkorswim platform. In brief, this allows you to pop out a field within thinkorswim and let it operate as its own window. To see what I'm talking about, go to any "Show actions menu" icon on thinkorswim and select "Detach" (if available.) You'll get the idea quickly from there. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
I hope you saw my last reply, but yes, as with most technical indicators, this one can conceptually be applied to any timeframe. Of course, performance is not guaranteed, regardless of indicator or timeframe. In any event, thanks for watching! ^CM
I am not aware of a scan with that function, but Ken Rose has created a script that may be useful. I see that you've asked this question of him, so his response should address this. In any case, thanks for watching! ^CM

In my scan I use two different time frames. I first start by filtering out clusters using “day” to find places where all three indicators are below 20 on the exact same day. Then I look for only the intermediate indicator to be higher than it was the day before. Next I also look for ones that the intermediate is still rising within that same day using a 5 minute time frame. Once something pops into my watchlist using this scan…first thing I do is look at it from 1yr (day) then 6 months (day) and then I look at Today (5 minutes) If it was clearly at rock bottom the day or two earlier but is on the rise now….its a good candidate and I start researching the fundamentals. One thing I also doing my scans is i exclude all pharmaceuticals. I don’t care how good a stocks fundamentals look…I wouldn’t touch any pharmaceutical stock with a 10’ pole right now.
I understand that the indicators track “momentum “. It would be good to establish what momentum means. I heard the terms momentum and price used somewhat interchangeably.
Happy to clarify! "Momentum" might be generally interpreted as the comparative speed with which price is advancing or declining (for example, a stock may be rising, but at a slower pace than it was previously), versus merely observing whether price is merely advancing or declining. But in any event, performance is not a guarantee, regardless of any indicator's interpretation of price, momentum, or other variable. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
Some traders do just that, but of course, no signal represents a guarantee of performance on any given trade. And in any event, thanks for watching! ^CM
Great question! While Market Forecast bearish reversals are theoretically possible as a signal, some traders have noted that these tend to be far more common, and possibly generate a greater number of failed signals. In any event, thanks for watching! ^CM
Watching this a few weeks after the fact and have one issue. The pip of the presenter is blocking the action on the charts. Not sure there’s a need to see the presenter the whole time.
Solid suggestion, and that can actually be done via a function on the platform known as thinkScript. In general, our chart tools are not designed to generate automated trade signals, as these might be misinterpreted as a recommendation. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching! ^CM
Two quick suggestions: 1. Make sure you're using thinkorswim Desktop and not thinkorswim Web. 2. Confirm that you've selected "MarketForecast" from the Studies menu. I hope this helps! ^CM
Ken Rose has a script for this purpose, but it is for thinkorswim Desktop. I'm not aware of a scan that will find clusters on Web. I hope this helps, and in any event, thanks for watching! ^CM
Very sorry, but I do not have insight into what sorts of tools may or may not be in development for the platform. But in any case, thanks for watching! ^CM
I appreciate your video greatly! Unfortunately, I'm experiencing challenges building a scanner around it. How can the concept in this video be codified into a ThinkorSwim Scanner? The first three statements of the following script work as expected: MarketForecast()."Momentum" is less than or equal to 20 and MarketForecast()."NearTerm" is less than or equal to 20 and MarketForecast()."Intermediate" is less than or equal to 20 and MarketForecast()."Intermediate" from -1 bars ago is less than MarketForecast()."Intermediate. But not the last line that qualifies for only returning tickers where MarketForecast Intermediate's current value is greater than the prior candle. Kindly advise please.
I did this and it works great for me. I actually put two conditions on mine. 1.) When MarketForecast.Intermediate is greater than MarketForecast.Intermidiate offset 1 within last 3 bars. using daily basis. 2.) Same as above but using 5 minute basis instead of day. This gets me all stocks where all three indicators are below 20, but Intermediate is not only higher than it was the previous day, but is currently climbing within the same day.
The Vortex indicator is used by some traders for short-term trade planning, but it does not necessarily generate the same signals as the Market Forecast tool. I may need to add a detailed review of the Vortex to my list of future webcast ideas. In any case, thanks for watching! ^CM
Heads up: the white screen background is really straining my eyes. Please use the traditional dark background for future presentions if possible. Thanks...
Can’t believe Schwab is encouraging people to gamble with their $. This is a recipe for disaster. I traded professionally for a top 5 bank for 25 years. It’s not a game and I would recommend anyone viewing this to avoid doing this. This is not something you learn through a video. It takes 10,000 hours to become proficient at just about anything. If you’re young, put a fixed amount of $ in an index fund like SPY every single month so you can sleep at night. this kind of stuff is really irresponsible.
I appreciate your concerns and the time you've taken to provide this feedback. Trading and investing both certainly carry risks, and our educational videos should never be construed as "encouragement" to undertake a particular approach to the markets. ^CM
It’s not Gambling if you’re smart and back testing the strategy on your simulator first and paper trading first before you can verify it is going to work for you. Only gambling if you’re just clueless about trading and want to scare people from testing it out.
@@danle746 it takes years 4-5)to become proficient and it’s way beyond the capabilities and time commitment of the average investor, and, the market is up almost 50% in 15months & hundreds of people are on here telling unsophisticated investors to buy and sell every day. Do you have a 45% return on your trading portfolio in the last 15 months? Don’t bother preaching to me. I traded size, professionally all day long for a top 5 bank for almost 30 years. I know what it takes. You don’t.

Does it matter what time frame chart you use? On a shorter time frame chart you may get more indications of trade entry.

I review all pertinent technical information and consult A.I. than just flip a coin. I have an 87% success rate.
Uh huh.
Quite the coin! ^CM
You haven't seen those new coins with seven heads and one tail?

Can’t believe Schwab is encouraging people to gamble with their $. This is a recipe for disaster. I traded professionally for a top 5 bank for 25 years. It’s not a game and I would recommend anyone viewing this to avoid doing this. This is not something you learn through a video. It takes 10,000 hours to become proficient at just about anything. If you’re young, put a fixed amount of $ in an index fund like SPY every single month so you can sleep at night. this kind of stuff is really irresponsible.
I appreciate your concerns and the time you've taken to provide this feedback. Trading and investing both certainly carry risks, and our educational videos should never be construed as "encouragement" to undertake a particular approach to the markets. ^CM
I 100% agree @howardstory1391
Life's short people want money now they don't want to wait for 20 years. With proper stop losses damage is minimized profits are e achieved.
It’s not Gambling if you’re smart and back testing the strategy on your simulator first and paper trading first before you can verify it is going to work for you. Only gambling if you’re just clueless about trading and want to scare people from testing it out.
@@danle746 it takes years 4-5)to become proficient and it’s way beyond the capabilities and time commitment of the average investor, and, the market is up almost 50% in 15months & hundreds of people are on here telling unsophisticated investors to buy and sell every day. Do you have a 45% return on your trading portfolio in the last 15 months? Don’t bother preaching to me. I traded size, professionally all day long for a top 5 bank for almost 30 years. I know what it takes. You don’t.
NO
