Trading Course Day 10: How to Mark Up

Summary

Key Points

• —To mark up charts effectively, focus on identifying previous swing highs and lows within the last one to three trading sessions. 3:16
• —When price makes a new high after a downtrend, the previous significant low becomes a level of support to watch. 5:15
• —Sellers are identified at levels where price has previously reacted and failed to move higher. 5:18
• —Market structure, such as higher highs and higher lows or lower lows and lower highs, remains consistent across different timeframes. 7:11
• —A 'no trade zone' is defined as the area between a confirmed swing high and swing low where price lacks clear direction or indication. 8:05
• —An 'indication' occurs when price breaks a swing high or swing low, signaling potential further movement in that direction, but it should not be traded directly. 8:31
• —Price action showing multiple rejections or wicks at a level can indicate indecision or a potential reversal. 12:20
• —Confirmation, such as a candle close above a key level during a specific trading session like New York, is crucial before entering a trade. 13:12
• —The video emphasizes using the one-hour timeframe for chart analysis, but the principles apply to all timeframes. 15:53
