Today’s lesson is picking up where we left off last week, when you learned how amplifiers make a set up even better. That lesson focused on bottoming and topping tails – if you missed it, catch up here! Today, Sami is moving to the most involved enhancer on the list: the Changing of the Guard. This trading combination is a multi-bar pattern that signifies a clear shift in the balance of power between the bears and the bulls. It can be bullish, letting you know that the buyers have taken over, or bearish, announcing that the sellers are winning. There is powerful reasoning behind this price pattern’s potency. To understand it, Sami takes you all the way back to the first lesson in this series to explain how to read the battle between buyers and sellers on the charts. The Changing of the Guard bars are not entry bars, they are warning bars before a buy or sell set up triggers. When you get the two in sequence, it results in a more reliable buy opportunity. Your ultimate goal is to find your perfect buy or sell set up, and this is how you find it.

“The market speaks loudest in failure patterns” is as true a saying as it gets on Wall Street. The Money Bar is the ultimate failure pattern. Here’s the way it goes: a stock tries to break out from a bearish base, only to get slammed. It signals that traders weren’t quick enough and got caught. It also gives Sami a solid entry and a secure stop. And it shows you where money got trapped. Once you know that, you need to know how to play it. Sami’s explains how you can attack this kind of opportunity. Plus, Sami gives you insight into one of his favorite patterns of all time, the Bleed Pattern, which occurs when a stock pulls back, pops a bit, and then bleeds into the rising 20ma and breaks out. This pattern often coincides with the Money Bar, and that’s when the real fun begins. Watch this video to learn how these patterns can help you boost your profits.
Continue Reading -->The First Shoe to Drop if the Market Tops
“Mark my words: if the market tops, this name will be the first shoe to drop.” Sami Abusaad is taking you along for a deep dive into some of the most influential names in the US economy. Tech companies lead the market, and there’s no shortage of movement there. Sami gives us his perspective on each of the FAANG names – plus MSFT, which is perhaps the most important of all. The majority are looking decent on the charts, but one in particular is seeing a spectacular fall. Sami is confident: this tech stock will be the first shoe to drop if the market tops. Plus, there’s plenty to cover outside of FAANG. Sami gives you some of his top takes, including: the one caveat he’s looking for before he plays TSLA when you should be sprinting away from NVDA why he’s skipping the indexes in gold and going straight for the individual stocks why BABA is a mess at the moment, and what to do with it the names he likes in crypto which stock is the best of the bunch – and yes, he’s playing it There’s a lot of info packed into this quick video. Get watch and get trading.

Sami Abusaad has dubbed the mighty 20 day moving average the single most important tool at his disposal. Rarely can such a simple tool make such a huge difference in your effectiveness, but this one is the exception. In Sami’s view, there is no tool more accurate and reliable. This essential lesson highlights how to use the 20ma to understand what the charts are telling you. Sami breaks down direction, slope, and how you can use this information to play the trend. If you didn’t already know, moving averages are directional guides that speed up technical analysis of trend. Sami attributes half of his total profits to the moving average – in fact, he prefers most people don’t use it, because it’s a big part of his edge! This particular moving average gives you a heads up right before a stock is about to break out. If you think you could benefit from that kind of forewarning when it comes to taking trades, then this is the lesson for you. Learn it now!

Today, Sami’s talking amplifiers: events that stack the odds in your favor. Before he gets into it, he reviews a lesson from way back in his lesson series on buy and sell setups. It’s one you need to understand before you build off of it with today’s lesson, so make sure you go back and review if you aren’t crystal clear on it yet. These setups, used with amplifiers, allow accuracy levels to climb even higher and your profits to skyrocket. Sami gets scientific about properly identifying and exploiting moments when these events occur simultaneously… and is happy to teach you his methods. Take your trades from decent to excellent. Watch now to stack the odds in your favor.
Continue Reading -->A Secret Trick for Playing the 200 Day Moving Average
The 200 day moving average is the Grand Daddy of them all. And if you understand one simple trick, the 200 day can tell you an awful lot about where a stock can go. In this classic video (note: the Black Room is now the Pristine Active Trader VTF®), Sami Abusaad explains what gaps around the 200 day moving average mean. He gives you a simple rule that lets you know if a gap will lead to continuation up or down, or if a reversal could be on tap. Every time Sami has violated this rule, he’s regretted it. Also learn why “flatness is king” — unlike the 20 day, you do not want a trend in the 200 day moving average. This is one of those tiny little nuances most traders don’t know about — but which can make a big difference in your P&L. And you can learn it through example from Tesla (TSLA), Vaaalco Energy (EGY), Tellurian (TELL), and more.
