Chart Scan with Commentary: Chart Reading
Early in my trading career, apart from moving averages, there were no indicators worthy of much mention. The computations needed for creating indicators were much too time-consuming for anyone to do without having a large main-frame computer, or at the very least a mini computer (cost $400,000). I learned to trade by reading a chart. In my opinion, chart reading still has the advantage over trading with indicators, especially if an indicator become the prime reason for entry into a trade. Indicators are okay as confirming entities to what a trader can see with the naked eye, but in my opinion that’s all they are good for. Of course, this kind of thinking is contrary to the vast majority of opinion among those who trade the markets.
The greatest weakness of an indicator is the fact that it requires historical data. Indicators are generally detrended plots of moving averages of whatever is the underlying. Because they depend on historical data, they are always behind the actual price action. The following is an example of what I mean.
For the Chart entry all that was needed was single reversal bar. Buy on the following bar at the price of the high of the reversal bar. Take a scalp trade and a second trade was possible at the MACD entry. The reversal bar gave its signal 7 bars before the MACD entry signal. The MACD entry was possible on the 8th bar of the series.

The Russell 2000 is simply too easy to trade right now!
The Ambush trading method is specialised in catching intraday market tops and bottoms in a variety of Futures markets. Including the Russell 2000 Mini Future (RTY/M2K) traded at the CME, where Ambush Traders keep on cashing in big time again over the last couple of months!
Ambush day trades on an end-of-day basis so there’s no need to even check the markets during the day.
The Russell 2000 a very popular market out there among traders. It has two of the most important things private traders are looking for liquidity and volatility. I won’t even include a daily chart here as it does look quite boring. To keep it brief, the Russell is trading in a wide range for a long time now. Perfect conditions for Ambush and so this has paid out big time, here are all the recent trades:
Yes, that’s over $6000 within just three month and not even 20 trades! Which means Ambush traders made over $300 on average per trade doing nothing more than placing one entry order per day. I guess most active day traders made a lot less…but their brokers rich!
Now those are huge amounts if you have a small account and you might not want to make or lose hundreds or dollars per trade. Thanks to the new Micro Russell 2000 Mini Contracts (M2K) this is not an issue anymore. You can trade these with a small account now. Here are the results trading one M2K contract:
If that is not enough bang for the buck simply size it up and trade two contracts or three. It’s so great now you can position size as you like exactly matching your risk preferences!
In either case you have to ask yourself if you really can afford to miss out on these trades!
So whether you’re trading a $10k account or a $100k account, Ambush has the right markets for you to start following the signals.
Again, ask yourself if you really can afford to miss out on these trades or at least be aware of the signals? Now if you’ve been on the other sides of these trades trying to buy the breakouts you maybe should think about switching sides?
