 Welcome to Your Trend
Analysis eBook!
Moving averages, support, and resistance are three of the most common terms
you’ll hear in technical analysis.

That’s why I used the word “unsexy” in bright yellow on the cover of this ebook.

In fact, you might be rolling your eyes at me because you think it’s all boring
beginner stuff.

But once you see understand these concepts through my eyes, you’ll understand
why making money is all about mastering the basics.

Remember what Bruce Lee said:

“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who
has practiced one kick 10,000 times.”

And as an added bonus, I’ll also teach you about the T3 Buy Setup, which is one of
my most powerful and reliable tools.

Normally, this information is only available as part of the $795 Trading the Pristine
Method® course.

But I wanted to give you a sneak peak at this powerful trading method, and give
you the chance to learn new tactics that can get you started making money.

Once you’re done with the educational portion of the eBook, check out page 17 -- I
left some information on my services there.

Good luck!

 Trend Analysis 1
You know there are 3 ways a stock can move: up, down or sideways.

When a stock is moving up with a pattern of consistently higher highs and higher
lows, it is considered to be in an uptrend.

Even Space

A strong upgrend has a rising 20 period moving average and a rising 50 period
moving averages.

When the space between the two moving averages is relatively even throughout the
uptrend, we call it “railroad tracks.”

These are the hallmarks of an uptrend.

This is not sexy stuff, but this basic concept is the foundation of trend analysis.

 Trend Analysis 2
When a stock is moving down with a pattern of consistently lower highs and lower
lows, it is considered to be in a downtrend.

d20ma

d50ma

Typically, we are looking for a declining 20 period moving average, a declining 50

period moving average, and relatively even space between the moving averages,
which as you know, creates what we call “railroad tracks.”

 Trend Analysis 3
When a stock is moving down with a pattern of consistently lower highs and lower
lows, it is considered to be in a downtrend.

A sideways trend is when we have a series of relatively equal highs and lows.

Typically, we are looking to buy the dips and short the rallies.

Sometimes, traders should look to buy high and buy even higher, but this is not
one of those cases.

t3live.com

 Pivots
In order to have a low pivot, you need a higher low (HL on the chart on the left) on
either side of a candle. The low pivot represents support.

In order to have a high pivot, you have to have a lower high (LH) on the right
charton either side of a candle. The high pivot represents resistance.

 Trading Uptrends

As you know, The best uptrends will have higher highs and higher lows, as well as a
rising 20 period moving average (r20ma), a rising 50 period moving average
(r50ma) and a relatively even space in between the r20ma and the r50ma - called
“railroad tracks.”

In this type of uptrend, the best buys come on pullbacks towards the 20 period
moving average.

This is a highly simplified version of what you can learn in the full Trading the
Pristine Method® course.

But take a look at your favorite uptrending stocks. See how often they back off to
the 20 ma before bouncing.

 Trading Downtrends
Now we’re look at a downtrend.

It’s the flip side of the uptrend you just saw. We have falling 20 and 50 mas and
railroad tracks.

In these cases, we look for shorts on bounces towards the 20 ma.

Again, this is a highly condensed version of the training you get in Trading the
Pristine Method® live.

Now go look at some downtrending stocks. You’ll be surprised at how often they
crawl up to the 20 ma before falling back down.

 Minor Support and
Resistance
When a stock is uptrending, you have minor support, which is an area that lies at or
just above the prior high (peak) of a steady uptrend. The basis for this support lies
in the fact that resistance, once broken to the upside, often becomes support on a
pullback.

Each prior high in an up trend is considered to be an area of resistance. Once the

stock breaks above its prior high, that peak will often serve as minor support on
dips, just as a ceiling once broken through to the upside becomes the floor.

Minor Resistance Turns to Support

t3live.com
12
 The 40%-60% Retracement
Zone
In its most basic form, a bullish retracement is a downward price move in the exact
opposite direction of the most recent up move. For example, if a stock advances $4,
then pulls back by $2, it has experienced a 50% retracement. If the stock were to
pull back the entire $4, it is said to have experienced a 100% retracement, which
potentially sets up what is called a Double Bottom.

The best thing about minor support and the 40-60% retracement area is that they
usually occur at the same place on a chart.

T3 TIP: Any rebound from the +40/60 range is to be considered more potent than one
from another percent level.

Double Bottom?

 The Mighty Rising 20MA
The T3 Buy Setup combined with a rising ma is our favorite trading combo.

Traders who master this tactic will dramatically increase their odds of becoming a
master trader.

In this case, you can see how the stock is pulling back to the rising 20 before
exploding higher.

This is just another “unsexy” trading concept that can lead to major profits.

 Major Support
An uptrend has minor support and a downtrend has minor resistance, but a
sideways trend has major support.

Major support is an area at which demand for a stock overwhelms the existing
supply. In other words, it is an area at which the buying (which was light) begins to
overwhelm the selling. This offers a unique buying opportunity.

The key thing to remember is that every low has contained within it a certain
degree of “positive memory.” This is what creates something close to a self-fulfilling
prophecy, which is another way of saying it creates a very high probability long
scenario. Negative memory (where buyers got hurt before) creates major
resistance. When the stock hits that point for a second time, it’s a great opportunity
to short the stock. We’ll just illustrate the long version here:

 Key Entry Points
To have a base, you must have at least a double bottom, or two pivots in the same
area, plus two pivot highs. Once you have that, you have a buying opportunity
every time the stock pulls back to those two prior pivot lows. The traders who
bought the stock at pivot lows were rewarded and will look to buy again. The
traders who bought the stock at pivot highs thinking it would breakout were hurt,
creating negative memory - which is why pivot highs are a great place to sell.

In the case below, the major price resistance (MR) was created because the original
buyers at point 1 got hurt, and want to get their money back.

This creates selling pressure at point 2.

T3 TIP: The group of sellers at top #2 dramatically increases, making it a great opportunity for a potential short play.
