Rayner (00:00)
Hey hey, what’s up my good friend?
So in in the present day’s episode, we have now Axel Kibar.
He is an ex-fund supervisor and a classical chart sample dealer.
So one factor that is attention-grabbing about Axel is that should you comply with him on Twitter, or these days they name it X, proper?
You understand that his charts, proper?
Actually talking, it is one of many cleanest that I’ve come throughout on the platform.
He would not have these messy indicators, squiggly strains masking all around the charts No…He’s charts are very clear and one have a look at his chart.
You’ll sense what the market is making an attempt to let you know.
So, Aksel has top-of-the-line charts that I’ve seen on the Twitter platform Or ought to I say, X platform.
Anyway, if you wish to join with Aksele, I am going to put his social media profile within the description beneath.
Now throughout my dialog with Axel, we coated a number of issues.
First, we talked about his life within the military, what are the issues he did, and the teachings he discovered again then.
Then we spoke about how he landed a job as a fund supervisor.
Let’s be trustworthy, it is a job that I feel most of us need to get however we simply someway do not know find out how to go about doing it.
So he shared the method that he did to land a job as a fund supervisor.
Then shifting on, he talks about classical chart patterns as a result of that is the way in which…
He trades the markets, he shares with us what he appears to be like for within the charts, his entry, cease loss, and targets.
Then he additionally shared the 4 varieties of breakouts that I really feel each dealer ought to know as a result of not all breakouts are equal.
So he shares these 4 several types of breakouts, how it is best to go about figuring out them, find out how to commerce them, and find out how to handle the breakout trades, relying on the kind of breakouts that you’re encountering.
Then lastly in direction of the tip, he shares how he goes about scanning the markets for buying and selling alternatives, his each day routine, and his weekly routine.
So we’re gonna cowl all this in in the present day’s session.
Go hearken to it proper now.
Rayner (02:01)
Okay,
welcome Axel to the present.
I am so blissful to have you ever in the present day.
Aksel (02:07)
Hello, Rayner, it is a pleasure to be a part of your present as properly.
Rayner (02:12)
So to kick issues off, I as soon as heard that I feel on one other buying and selling podcast that you simply have been within the military, so possibly to kick issues off, what have been you doing within the military beforehand?
Aksel (02:23)
Effectively, the military is in Turkey, it is a necessary service. So we can not precisely say that it is hardcore navy service, however all people has to do it.
And I used to be certainly one of them as properly.
So principally, that is the way it works. Through the years, they shortened the interval of the navy service in Turkey.
My mother and father used to do it for 18 months and possibly much more.
Some have completed two years of service.
So in my case, what occurred is that should you’re a college graduate, you might be solely doing it for six months.
So the time shortened and shortened, and now I feel it’s a paid service.
So should you, it is like principally they rent navy personnel.
So now what I’ve completed is six months.
I had the choice to do it for 12 months with the next rank, however I made a decision to go for six months as a soldier.
I used to be a Marine soldier on the West coast of Turkey.
It was, I’d say all people to start with is afraid of the navy service they usually really feel prefer it’s a waste of time and it takes away from their life, and so on.
Then once you discuss to individuals who have completed it, they all the time have good reminiscences.
I by no means thought that I’d have good reminiscences after it.
However it’s true since you get to satisfy lots of attention-grabbing individuals there from completely different elements of the nation, completely different ranges of schooling.
It is humorous, it is anxious, and I imply there may be all the time a threat of battle, nevertheless it’s extra of a protection a part of issues that retains you all the time alert, not that you simply’re gonna go to battle, however on the base principally, there was all the time stress.
That stress retains you alert and to start with, a number of months, due to that stress, you neglect what you have been doing in actual life.
The primary month is often the essential coaching, disciplinary coaching, the orders, and so forth.
After the primary month, there’s the ceremony and then you definately transfer to the following stage, through which you spend 5 months and slightly bit extra knowledgeable standing.
In my case, nearly in all people’s case, they attempt to search for your academic background and attempt to make the most of that.
So should you’re an engineer, you is perhaps collaborating within the automotive workshop.
I used to be an economist, so probably the most appropriate part for me was the accounting division of the cafeteria.
So I used to be accountable for six completely different shops and principally, this got here after my 4 years of economics examine and I’d say that I discovered probably the most in…
In that navy service accounting division or the grocery store part, then 4 years of economics examine.
So it was such an attention-grabbing expertise that you simply get to study, as a result of we had the bottom of a thousand individuals, and a thousand individuals refill the bottom, after which they get their coaching after two, three months.
They’re moved to their unique navy bases.
So we have been principally a coaching camp type of a spot and so that you max 2,000 and then you definately drop 200.
I’ve seen this cycle twice throughout my six-month keep.
When it reaches 2,000 individuals, you are speaking about an enormous economic system there.
Okay. So to illustrate — The restaurant would not have good meals.
All people piles as much as have a toast or some sort of snack from the cafeteria and the gross sales go up like loopy So navy just isn’t purported to revenue from gross sales.
So we purchase issues with bins And once you divide the objects into 25 items or 30 items you get the worth tag off the associated fee is 22 fills
So it’s important to, you can not spherical it to twenty fills.
You need to spherical it to 25 fills.
So once you spherical it to 25 fills, you get 10 to fifteen% revenue, and over 1,000 items to 2,000 items of gross sales, you get to see a large profit-building up within the money registers.
So… Principally, I’ve seen how the inhabitants has an influence on the financial success of small shops.
So the plenty going wild on water in the course of the summer season, and all these small, small earnings piling up is providing you with some sort of loopy revenue on the finish of the month.
That revenue was being distributed to troopers in want who did not have monetary assist from their households.
So like some sort of a wage being given to individuals in want.
That was the financial background of what I’ve been doing. I used to be accountable for six completely different shops on the finish of every month.
We used to attempt to match the money register and the objects that have been being bought, and so on.
Ordering of utilities, rest room paper, T-shirts, tea, you identify it, every little thing that was out there.
So shopping for the newspapers, and ensuring that the shares have been out there have been all my accountability and I used to be managing six completely different shops out of which three of them have been children which have had a college background.
Three of them have been major college graduates.
In order you’ll be able to see completely different academic ranges from completely different elements of the nation and the college grads have been capable of match their money pile since you give change.
You’re taking, to illustrate — a thousand Turkish lira and also you give change.
Generally the opposite children have been making errors.
So there have been shortfalls within the money.
So that they needed to put it from their pocket, from these errors.
Yeah. Ouch.
Yeah. In order that’s life.
So that you get to see completely different elements of the nation, and completely different academic ranges, and these all have been good reminiscences as a result of all of them taught me what life is about.
As a result of you aren’t getting to see, once you’re working as an economist or an analyst in a financial institution, you aren’t getting to see all people, every kind of profiles.
However within the navy service, you get to share the room with them and with completely different individuals, completely different academic ranges, and completely different statuses.
So it was a distinct expertise.
I loved it.
Like individuals who have commented on it after finishing their navy service, I additionally share the identical views.
Now, they all the time say that even in order for you, you can not return and that is true.
Like, and I am all the time telling my pals and my household, I would not thoughts going and spending two months now with the identical crowd and doing the identical issues.
So it was that half. It needed to be completed, however I am glad.
I used to be given the prospect to do it for an extended interval.
Rayner (12:16)
I can relate to it as properly as a result of in Singapore, proper, all of the mail we have now to serve a obligatory two-year nationwide service. I imply, it was 2.5, however now it is for 2 years.
Then they slowly minimize it down similar to, you realize, what you mentioned on your nation.
So yeah, many classes discovered.
I feel for many of us who accomplished our time within the military after two years, all of us sort of like nodding.
Sure… That was a great expertise.
We initially, after we thought stepping into is a waste of time, you realize, I am holding again my profession However once you look again, the teachings discovered are stuff that you simply will not study elsewhere.
You study how individuals behave, proper?
Their true colours, you realize Your EQ, the way you work together with others of various statuses others of various personalities and backgrounds.
So it was very enlightening for me as properly so identical sentiments, proper?
As you’ve got shared after going by means of the military.
So my subsequent query to you is that, you realize, relating to the military.
So what are a number of the classes that you simply discovered proper whereas going by means of that six-month journey within the military?
Aksel (13:13)
The teachings… I imply, relationships matter.
That is one thing that I’ve discovered from, it is a reproduction of company life as properly.
The choosing order ranks,
Ah.
What try to be doing and what you should not be doing, principally, rules-based, strictness, the self-discipline.
All these have been very, very useful later in life that you simply get to see these and then you definately transfer to company life and even in life.
You get to see that, okay, you realize, that is the pecking order.
We’ve to respect that.
We can not step forward and step over the hierarchy.
There may be that hierarchy. It must be there.
We’ve to comply with sure orders and typically, I’ve all the time been a disciplined particular person.
Be it with following up on issues and waking up time and so on.
So these qualities helped me throughout my navy service. So many humorous moments associated to that.
Rayner (15:15)
You possibly can share any humorous moments that come to thoughts?
Aksel (15:18)
I imply once you’re serving one of the necessary issues is we get them as a result of we used to drop to 100 individuals within the base from 1000 and when it’s 100 you get to do all of the chores your self 100 individuals so you can not give it to the newcomers so it’s important to deal with it your self.
Serving was certainly one of them serving at completely different elements of the bottom and midday at 10 o’clock.
We used to start out 10-12, 12-2, 2-4, after which 4-7 as a result of we have been quick in numbers.
Every single day they used to write down a location to be served.
You go and get your gun and go to the serving level.
The place that I used to be guarding was the ammunition depot, which was proper throughout the cafeteria, grocery store, and warehouse.
So my pals used to move by in the course of the night time once I was serving.
They’re additionally serving. Um, they have been a duo and I used to be, uh, alone on one aspect and, um, they used to ask me, come on, are you able to get us some tea from the within?
I used to say… No means.
Like I can not transfer from my place as a result of if, uh, the commander and, and, uh, the commander comes, you can not, you can not do this.
So that they used to alter with me a spot.
One of many guys used to remain in my place.
I used to stroll with the opposite guys and open the shop and get them in the course of the freezing winter, some tea, as they have been serving.
So, I imply, these are friendships.
You can’t break that since you dwell with them. You are sharing the house. These are the small issues that it’s important to violate.
However, um…
Yeah, good days.
Rayner (17:55)
Once you talked about serving, do you imply staying on obligation, remaining at your spot to verify nobody comes as serving?
Aksel (17:59)
Yeah
Rayner (18:01)
Okay, okay.
Only one final query earlier than we transfer on. Transfer on, proper?
In order you have been, you realize, in command of the shop, you realize, promoting objects.
What are a number of the extra in style objects that, you realize, individuals within the military love to purchase?
Aksel (18:13)
Uh, it was extra meals objects as a result of every time there may be the meals within the restaurant just isn’t that good.
They used to pile up for toast and tea within the winter.
So tea was one Turkish lira on the time earlier than all this inflation and so forth.
So the man that was managing the tea retailer one month, had an enormous shortfall, a considerable amount of shortfall.
Once we requested, we realized that his pals have been coming and saying, can I get one tea and he offers the tea and I’ll pay for it later.
So one Turkish lira just isn’t attainable to gather from right here and there.
So it piles up.
100 children, it is a hundred Turkish lira shortfall.
In order that’s like 10% of the inhabitants of the bottom in someday.
So should you repeat this 5 instances a month, you’ve a shortfall of 500 Turkish lire and that is a large quantity the place the wage that the navy service was giving to the troopers on the time was 35 to 40 Turkish lira.
In order that’s 10 instances the yr the cash that they have been paying for the month.
Yeah. OK.
Rayner (19:50)
So let’s possibly now transfer on and discuss concerning the fund administration world, as a result of from what I’ve gathered, you have been a fund supervisor again within the UAE.
So curious to listen to, what is the course of like of getting such a job again then?
Aksel (20:11)
So right here is the way it began.
It is an attention-grabbing story as properly. After the navy service.
This navy service comes after my grasp’s diploma in Canada.
So I used to be one of many first within the household that traveled overseas and studied after which got here again, completed the navy service and after the navy service, I began in search of jobs and I discovered a few jobs in Turkey.
I began in a assure financial institution, one of many greatest banks in Turkey.
Of their asset administration division, I began working, nevertheless it was a two-week journey as a result of in the meantime, I used to be receiving emails from a few pals that they have been in search of a CMT in Abu Dhabi.
The Nationwide Financial institution of Abu Dhabi was in search of a CMT Constitution and on the time I began working in Assure Financial institution as an funding analyst.
In order that had quite a bit to do with the elemental analysis and I loved charts and I loved the technical aspect.
However as a begin, I used to be okay to take the funding analyst job.
In the meantime, as a result of I acquired this e-mail from one other good friend for the third time, I mentioned there was one thing about this. I ought to think about it.
I did not know the place Abu Dhabi was on the time as a result of the commercial was 45 minutes from Dubai.
So once I talked to pals, they mentioned Dubai is the New York of the Center East.
So I began looking, I began looking the financial institution, Nationwide Financial institution of Abu Dhabi, a semi-government-owned financial institution.
After I began looking, I mentioned — This can be a good alternative, possibly I ought to apply for it.
I utilized for it.
The reply got here as we wanted slightly bit extra expertise within the discipline and this was in 2007.
In 2007, I graduated from economics in Turkey in 2004, obtained my constitution, after which after that masters.
After I was learning economics, I additionally did an internship at Yuppie Credit score Financial institution, which was additionally an enormous, one of many greatest banks in Turkey.
So whereas doing all these, expertise was not attainable to suit someplace.
You can’t get the working expertise.
I had an internship expertise, which was nearly like working as a result of I did half-day college, and half-day financial institution for 3 years.
So that they requested me — They informed me that we have been in search of extra expertise.
So I did not take no for a solution.
I wrote again as a result of I used to be very comfy with my data of charting and technical evaluation.
I knew that I used to be good at it. So once I wrote again, my ex-CEO favored the reply and he favored that I challenged it and he obtained again to me they usually arrange an interview name and after that decision, they have been satisfied that I had the data which in all probability compensated for the expertise aspect.
I needed to excuse myself from Assure Financial institution, which they weren’t very proud of.
However the increased the administration, the extra understanding they have been.
So the CEO was extra understanding and he mentioned that we perceive it is a significantly better supply and fewer locations out there if issues do not go properly.
So I took the supply and I flew to Abu Dhabi.
I began as a technical analyst on the Nationwide Financial institution of Abu Dhabi.
It was 2007, and we have been gonna get hit by the subprime mortgage in a number of months.
So going to a land.
Uh… which was probably the most affected by subprime mortgage and the true property crash was a very attention-grabbing expertise as a result of once I went there uh… the markets have been already uh… falling from 2005 to 2007 they have been already in a downtrend.
Individuals have been uh… individuals did not need to even discuss concerning the inventory market and I noticed the chance that the market is bottoming, a minimum of for a brief aid rebound.
At that time, I joined the division, asset administration division as a technical analyst.
I had a few good calls as a result of the market was rebounding and good classical chart patterns have been showing.
So It was a chance for me to point out my abilities, which afterward allowed me to handle funds as a result of I had some good calls and and caught some good concepts.
In order that helped me to get the fund administration to the fund administration website, which I used to be given in 2008.
The UAE, Nationwide Financial institution of Abu Dhabi’s UAE buying and selling fund, was the biggest fund within the UAE on the time.
I feel someplace round half a billion {dollars}.
So I began managing that throughout the subprime crash and UAE just isn’t various, it was not a diversified economic system on the time.
Now there are extra IPOs, malls, and so on.
The leisure aspect is being IPO’d.
There was not even an airline that was IPO’d on the time.
So it was extra like banks or actual property and each have been getting hit due to the true property collapse however banks held significantly better actual property aspect of issues fell aside so it was a troublesome interval to handle that in an illiquid market on the time of the crash.
That is how I began first as an analyst after which as a fund supervisor.
Rayner (28:25)
In order a fund supervisor, how do you then handle the cash?
Do you day like, hey, Axel, here is $10 million?
Develop it to $20 million, or do your greatest, or no matter.
How’s the method of managing that cash?
Aksel (28:43)
So we had our funds benchmarked towards the MSCI UA index.
There was this MSCI UAE, home MSCI UAE worldwide index.
There have been two varieties of indices.
Home internationals weren’t allowed on the time to put money into sure shares, strategic telecom corporations, for instance, weren’t out there for funding.
However native native funds have been capable of put money into these.
So for instance, we used to take a look at the MSCI-UA Worldwide Index and MSCI-UA Home Index and we used to run it, run the funds towards this benchmark.
We had 25 to 30 names in it roughly possibly much less even.
You do not have a large universe…
Okay and actual property for instance MR properties was near 25 to 30 p.c of the fund.
So it is largely taking a guess on huge names by simply underweighting the true property sector from 35 to 40 p.c to twenty p.c was permitting you to generate alpha.
It was a guess on whether or not you are into the banking sector otherwise you’re into the true property sector.
By making that decision on the time of the subprime crash, which began hitting the UAE market slightly bit later than the US market.
The crash began slightly bit later.
I used to be capable of liquidate huge quantity of huge quantity of actual property and on the time, the Dubai actual property obtained hit greater than the Abu Dhabi actual property as a result of Abu Dhabi was one step behind when it comes to improvement.
So that they weren’t caught in the course of the event stage.
They have been nonetheless initiating initiatives and making an attempt to meet up with Dubai.
However Dubai already constructed its man-made islands, villas, excessive rises, and marinas.
In order that market obtained hit first.
So the shares that have been listed on that trade have been extra liquid as properly.
So it allowed me to cut back my publicity on these.
The essential thought was if you find yourself managing it towards the benchmark, you’ve someplace to carry on to it.
It is simpler than an entire clean sheet since you simply want to take a look at the relative performances towards the index and see the shares which might be underperforming.
Shares which might be beneath their long-term averages, begin with that.
You do not need to be impartial even in these names.
So any money which you can elevate, I used to be allowed to enter MENA equities exterior of UAE.
So we had the allowance of a 30% off index publicity.
This was giving me on the time my CIO informed me that that is extra like a satellite tv for pc strategy you are making use of right here.
So the the underweight positions, the money that you simply get from from these I used to be making use of with into MENA equities, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman. So I created this vast alternative set for myself and began.
Exploring breakout concepts.
In order that’s my primary start line with the breakout methods as a result of I used to be making an attempt to seize a few weeks of robust directional motion with this cache that I’ve taken out from underperforming names.
Attempting to generate extra alpha on the Directional strikes that I used to be capable of seize in off-index names.
Once you go into off index you’ve slight threat since you’re shifting away from the benchmark, however that is the one method to outperform an index.
You can’t hug the index.
You need to transfer away slightly bit.
I used to take, for instance, 4 to 5 completely different positions exterior of the index and attempt to seize these directional strikes, which introduced me to my present technique in the present day.
That you simply begin with a clean sheet and also you have a look at a large universe of breakout concepts.
Rayner (34:25)
This brings me to my subsequent query which is you realize why breakouts I feel from what I’ve gathered you’ve got tried many varieties of buying and selling approaches proper?
Indicators you realize patterns and stuff like that and now I feel you talked about you realize you went with the breakout so why escape?
Aksel (34:40)
Why escape?
It is a good query.
After I joined the Nationwide Financial institution of Abu Dhabi, my CIO was superior in charting and technical evaluation.
He had this information.
He sat with me and he mentioned — Axel, in these markets, these markets are momentum-driven.
So there are fewer market makers in these markets.
It is extra emotional psychology-driven strikes.
With that mindset, I went by means of the entire universe within the area and began in search of these varieties of tight consolidations and the way shares are behaving and so forth and I got here to understand that…
Sure, you’ve increasingly shares breaking out of a consolidation tendencies are extra persistent.
It isn’t, persons are not feeding off these tendencies, they’re piling up into these strikes.
That is how I began making use of flat-range breakouts in shares.
It was extra of a sort of a course that I used to be pushed in direction of to discover these aspect of issues.
Then as I regarded increasingly into breakouts, I got here to understand that by simply adjusting the time-frame, you continue to have the prospect, even in worldwide shares.
Some of these consolidations which you can play as a breakout technique.
Rayner (36:43)
So would you say that, you realize, earlier you talked about the, your CIO mentioned that in these markets, I feel he is referring to markets that are much less watched or possibly markets which aren’t as in style, like possibly shares like Tesla, Apple, and so on?
Any such shares, they escape are usually extra actual in comparison with the extra in style shares like, you realize, Tesla, Apple, Amazon.
These varieties of breakouts, are inclined to not work as properly.
Did I get that proper?
Aksel (37:07)
Yeah, I can say that.
The preferred names are extra crowded, clearly, however that does not imply that you simply can not discover breakouts in these names.
It is simply they in all probability type much less often.
For instance, on Tesla, you may discover a five-year-long consolidation breaking out, however that is a five-year-long wait.
In the event you go and attempt to discover two, three-month-long consolidations, textbook-tight consolidations, it may not occur on Tesla.
Much less in style names might need these alternatives extra often.
However very liquid and crowded shares provides you with much less frequent alternatives like that.
For that cause, I made certain that I checked out a large universe.
I spent lots of time going by means of charts.
For me, ticker would not matter.
So I do not even have a look at the ticker. I simply have a look at the chart itself, the suitable aspect of the chart, and attempt to see the consolidation that I am in search of.
So many individuals are attempting to deal with too many patterns on the identical time whereas a single identify, which is forcing them to seek out one thing.
On the chart which does not exist.
So what I am doing is that I’ve a wider universe and some choose patterns that I am making an attempt to take a look at.
So I am not restricted to a crowded commerce.
I can have a look at much less in style names and attempt to seize that directional motion as properly.
Rayner (39:26)
Okay so would you then share what are the issues that you simply search for in a chart from what I’ve gathered, issues like rectangles are certainly one of your favourite patterns, so possibly you’ll be able to go into some particulars and share what you search for?
Aksel (39:38)
So to illustrate, to begin with, my important motivation is to search for horizontal patterns which might be horizontal with the ability to handle the commerce with a predefined cease loss.
So for instance, a symmetrical triangle has an upward slope and, a downward-sloping higher boundary.
On the time of the breakout, you act when the inventory is breaching the higher boundary and also you place a cease loss beneath the sample boundary.
That is the logical place to place a cease loss, a protecting cease loss.
So proper after that, if the inventory begins pulling again sharply, it goes again to the boundary.
It’s beneath your cease loss, however the sample just isn’t violated.
In order that’s a problem with diagonal boundaries, buying and selling the diagonal boundaries. And new merchants, new analysts all the time have this tendency to start with to attract pattern strains and diagonal boundaries for some cause.
Which…How can I say takes away from their couple of years of follow to deal with horizontals till you understand that the meat is definitely within the horizontal setups?
I misplaced as properly simply one to 2 years of my time these pattern line breakouts and so forth.
Is the horizontal setups.
So out of the eight classical chart patterns I’ve outlined, seven of them are horizontal setups.
So for instance, ascending triangle, descending triangle, head and shoulder continuation, head and shoulder backside, head and shoulder prime. Rectangle is one other one.
The cup with the deal with is one other one and the eighth one is a symmetrical triangle.
This is among the hottest.
So I solely have a look at a symmetrical triangle as a chart sample with a diagonal boundary.
However out of all these, my favourite is a rectangle due to its frequency.
So frequency is necessary.
You do not wanna find yourself with 50 concepts for the entire yr.
You need to have 100 concepts, and 200 concepts to select and select from as a result of as soon as you discover the concept, it does not imply that it is a good commerce.
You need to return and examine barely its fundamentals, the amount sample, et cetera.
If there’s a new spending proper earlier than a monetary announcement, you do not wanna commerce that sample.
So that you desire a wider alternative to promote and Rectangle gives that.
So…I got here to understand that increasingly rectangles are showing on charts they usually find yourself being dependable.
Simply to offer you some statistics over 7 years of chart sample alerts, I’ve 1526 occurrences.
654 have been rectangles.
So near half of them have been rectangles that fashioned on value charts.
Now this might be a bias on my aspect as a result of the extra I understand that rectangle is succeeding or they’re dependable, the extra my eyes are in search of that.
But additionally rectangles are simpler to acknowledge on the worth charts as a result of they’re so clear tight consolidations on the worth chart.
So out of those 654 over the previous seven years, 415 of them reached their value goal giving successful price of 63.5% so the general success price for eight chart patterns is at 59.5%.
So clearly rectangle is above that common providing you with the higher hand that should you carry on specializing in rectangles, you should have a greater edge to find worthwhile setups.
For instance, individuals say, what’s the requirement to seek out the rectangle?
What are the qualities that you simply’re in search of in a rectangle?
For me, a rectangle must have a minimal of two touchpoints.
So you’ve two highs to attract a line. However the third one, if it is a breakout, it is much less dependable than the fourth one when it is a breakout.
So I like a number of contact factors to a boundary.
My eye retains on in search of these extra frequent exams of a sample boundary and I feel that the extra exams of a sample boundary, the extra legitimate that degree is.
So round that degree, many transactions occur.
So shopping for and promoting occurs.
So it is a median, it is a value space.
The extra developed it’s, the stronger the breakout that follows it.
So even with head and shoulder continuation or ascending triangle, the identical factor applies when you’ve that horizontal boundary.
I wish to see a number of exams of it.
If attainable, three, or 4 exams, after which the fifth one is a breakout or the fourth one is a breakout somewhat than the third one is a breakout.
So with that, I’ve extra conviction to go forward with that breakout sign.
Rayner (46:14)
Okay, to illustrate now we have now possibly three exams and now the worth is about to check it for a fourth time, proper?
So what’s the particular sample set off, no matter you need to name it, that can let you know, okay, now it is the time to purchase?
What is the factor that you simply search for?
Aksel (46:28)
So ideally, the inventory wants to interrupt out robust.
Now there are completely different strategies to substantiate a breakout and this is among the questions that I get quite a bit.
I really feel like lots of people are spending an excessive amount of time on this, specializing in this, than truly specializing in what issues.
So what they’re specializing in is find out how to keep away from the false breakout and I all the time say that there isn’t any means you’ll be able to keep away from a false breakout.
False breakouts are gonna happen.
Okay.
So it is a trade-off now.
The breakout takes place with a protracted white candle.
That is a breakout affirmation. However then we’re late.
For instance, gold on a month-to-month scale, large month-to-month candle, it is a breakout, however we’re late.
Effectively, should you’re a month-to-month scale value chart, that first month of a breakout from a five-year lock consolidation just isn’t gonna be over in two months.
So you might be speaking a few multi-month-long uptrend that is beginning.
It is okay to offer away the primary 5% or 6% of that transfer on a bigger scale.
So superb situation is to look and look ahead to that lengthy white candle to happen.
Okay.
What concerning the each day charts?
If we look ahead to a 6% transfer, the transfer is to illustrate 15%, half of it’s gone.
Sure, I agree with that.
Then you definitely want one thing else.
One thing else must be positioned within the technique.
So one methodology is in search of an ATR based mostly entries.
So that you outline the higher boundary, okay, and ATR is the typical true vary. It’s the volatility of the inventory.
To illustrate 10 durations of ATR.
You’ll be able to take 10 durations of ATR and add a sure p.c of that ATR above the boundary and to be early, you act with a cease restrict order.
What is the trade-off?
The trade-off is that on the finish of the day, you may discover the inventory not breaking out truly.
So your protecting cease is beneath the sample boundary and also you’re in a inventory that did not escape robust.
However that’s the trade-off, we have now to face that trade-off.
Now that is gonna scale back your win price, however your reward when it breaks out goes to be a lot larger than your reward once you look ahead to a affirmation by the tip of the day which is able to compensate.
So your reward to threat goes to extend from to illustrate — Two one to 2 to at least one to 4 with that sort of early entry however your threat reward goes to enhance.
So lots of people do not need to be mistaken they usually need to keep away from it.
So it is like a trade-off. So lots of people are stepping into between this.
Look ahead to affirmation, however we’re late.
Do not look ahead to affirmation.
Act early, however we get false breakouts.
So the way in which to compensate is to just accept that when it really works with a 40% win price, your reward goes to be 1 to 4 or 1 to five, which is able to compensate for the lack of win p.c.
So these are the 2 issues that folks should make peace with.
You both settle for a 60% win price ready for a breakout affirmation and settle for a 1-2 or 1-2.5 or 1-1.5 or slightly bit much less win price however the next reward.
Rayner (51:26)
Okay, and what about that stops?
Earlier you talked about that your stops are actually beneath the sample boundary.
Am I proper to say that it is on the low of the breakout candle bar?
Aksel (51:36)
That additionally might be managed with an ATR.
So you’ll be able to simply arrange a p.c of ATR beneath the sample boundary, after which your cease restrict entry and the chance are predefined.
So you realize that forward of time earlier than you even enter the commerce.
Rayner (51:59)
Okay, simply to make clear once you discuss concerning the sample boundary, so to illustrate…
We discuss concerning the rectangle, would the sample boundary be referring to the resistance which is a breakout degree level, or wouldn’t it be the low of the rectangle which is the close to assist?
Aksel (52:12)
No, the sample boundary could be the breakout degree on the higher aspect.
Rayner (52:14)
Okay, that is sensible.
Aksel (52:15)
So we’re speaking a few lengthy commerce right here.
So that you outlined your sample boundary at 60.
So 60 is your sample boundary and then you definately calculate your ATR and to illustrate 62 degree is the ATR that you’d act throughout the day, intraday.
So that you act on 62 after which the identical quantity of ATR you take away from the sample boundary you’ve 58.
So 62 minus 58 is your threat of $4.
Rayner (52:52)
Okay, that is sensible.
Then what about targets?
I feel from what I see in your Twitter feeds, your goal is often value projection.
To illustrate the rectangle is between the lows is $50, the highs is $60, and your goal is often $10.60 minus $50.
So is that often the way you go about setting your targets?
Aksel (53:08)
Yeah, that is the depth of the sample.
You’re taking it, that many of the patterns are the identical, however value targets are pointers.
So the worth can exceed the sample value goal.
Now what I’ve
The service that I’ve began with is classical chart patterns and sample identification, one dimension would not match all.
So all people has a distinct model.
Some individuals do not use cease loss.
Some individuals use cease loss.
Some individuals have a look at weekly scale charts, and a few at each day scale charts.
I counsel individuals not to take a look at intraday charts as a result of it is too unstable and simply manipulated.
So each day and weekly scale, I attempt to focus, even typically on a month-to-month.
So what I’ve completed is I’ve categorized breakouts.
I mentioned, there are 4 varieties of breakouts.
One, sort one.
Inventory breaks out and rallies to the worth goal with none pullback.
There’s a sort two breakout, inventory breaks out, pulls again to the sample boundary, after which rallies to the worth goal, value goal is met.
There’s a third sort of breakout, which breaks out, pulls again to the sample boundary, and dips beneath it.
Okay.
So now you’ve this man who
Makes use of a good cease loss beneath the sample boundary, and tries to maximise the risk-reward.
Okay.
This man must deal with the universe of sort one and sort two.
In order that’s his playground.
That is truly what the end result he must count on from the breakouts and once I have a look at that, the sort one and sort two over the seven-year interval, classical chart patterns that I’ve analyzed, the success price is at 47%.
So you’ll be able to see that.
The success price from 59.5 dropped to 47 p.c, however solely for individuals who are making use of a good cease, this may generate the sting as a result of 47 p.c with a one to 3 threat reward is a profitable technique.
Now sort three breakouts, once you take the sort three breakouts, which I am assuming that when you have a good cease loss beneath the sample boundary and value dips, you are stopped out.
Okay.
These are out of the 59.5% success price, these are the 12.5% are these. 12.5%.
Now, one factor I’ve realized is that this. Between sort one and sort two, sort one is 27% of the breakouts, sort two is 20% of the breakouts.
What does that imply?
Which means in case you are ready for a pullback to enter, 27% of these breakouts you are lacking out.
So the conclusion is that this, breakouts.
Needs to be acted on the time of the breakout.
To have the ability to seize probably the most rewarding ones what I’ve realized is sort one breakouts which escape with none pullback and the worth to the worth goal are those that exceed the worth goal.
What does that convey us to?
So should you calculate your threat reward, initially as three, one to 3, with the worth goal in focus.
You understand that it is a sort one breakout.
How do you understand that it is a sort one breakout?
The inventory broke out and rallied to the worth goal with out touching the worth goal.
We’re very shut, like 2% away from the worth goal.
At that time, you understand that you simply’re using the sort one breakout, okay?
So you’ve got already calculated one to 3.
Why not look ahead to one to 4 and one to 5?
There you seize probably the most out of a pattern.
So once you understand that you simply’re using a sort one breakout, my suggestion to all my members and followers is that, wait, path it with a trailing cease as a result of that is the winner.
That is gonna generate extra on this uptrend, which is able to provide help to to attain higher risk-reward within the breakout sign.
So sort one, sort two.
So that is how I categorized the breakouts and this in all probability is my addition to the literature, to illustrate — as a result of once you learn Schabacher’s guide.
Schabacher mentions that the most effective breakouts happen on the time of the breakout, which tells us that we should always not look ahead to the retest I discovered that from the seven years of statistics once you look ahead to the retest, it is the 20%.
When you do not look ahead to the retest, that is 27% of the breakouts.
Then I noticed that should you have a look at these varieties of ones, they all the time exceed the worth goal as a result of it is logical.
The logic is that if a inventory is rallying to the worth goal, it has momentum.
It is going to go.
It is going to simply go to, your preliminary calculation is one to 3 threat rewards.
To illustrate…
It is going to go to at least one to 4 simply and that one to 4, actually provides to the underside line.
Rayner (59:51)
That was informative, Aksel, I admire it.
You talked about, to illustrate sort one breakout, you’ll elevate your goal additional since there’s robust momentum, you go together with a trailing cease loss.
So how would you then, you realize, path your cease loss as there are, I feel some ways to do it?
So I would like to listen to your strategy to it.
Aksel (59:40)
Yeah, the trailing cease is the Chandelier exit.
It is out there on-line all over the place.
So it takes the…
What I am is the 10-period ATR, however this era might be modified, and the multiples might be modified.
So that you dangle the chandelier exit, to illustrate the trailing cease, from the excessive of that transfer.
So if a inventory is making new highs, it’ll dangle it from that top minus the a number of that you simply outline instances the ATR interval.
To illustrate 10-period ATR you are taking. 10-period ATR means it has a glance again at 10 durations of true ranges.
They take the typical and offer you these ATR values.
So that you say…
Okay, I am gonna dangle it 4 instances the ATR, which provides you with a wider cease or you’ll be able to say I’ll dangle it 3 ATR or 2 ATR.
This once more, one dimension would not match all.
Individuals want to sit down down and work on it and see which they’re comfy with.
How a lot of that open revenue they’re keen to offer again?
How their inventory is performing relative to their ATR worth.
How a lot of spikes are there in intraday or intra-week?
On that particular inventory, if they will apply it, for instance, within the crypto house, two unstable, they want in all probability 5 ATR to not get stopped out.
If they are going with a quiet, low-volatile inventory, two, 2.5 ATRs might be utilized.
In an effort to regulate in response to, or you’ll be able to say irrespective.
That is what I’ll use, three ATRs or 4 ATRs and I am not gonna optimize it as per inventory or instrument.
Rayner (1:01:56)
Alright and if I am not mistaken, you talked about that breakouts there are differing kinds.
Did you say there have been 4 varieties of breakout or was it three?
Aksel (1:02:00)
Sure, 4 varieties of breakout, The fourth is a failure.
Oh, the fourth is a failure, so it is a false breakout?
Yeah, fourth breakout.
Okay, in order that one which one would not even get well like the sort 3 after retesting after dipping beneath the sample boundary.
So as soon as it falls beneath the sample boundary, it is a straightaway failure.
It simply goes right down to the tip of the vary.
Rayner (1:02:26)
Okay, so if that is the case, your cease loss, do you look ahead to the worth to sort of like shut beneath your cease value degree, or is it extra of like a contact, and then you definately’re out of the commerce?
Aksel (1:02:33)
Cease loss needs to be touched.
You can’t look ahead to an in depth as a result of there are every kind of antagonistic actions available in the market and you can not look ahead to a 20% down transfer on the finish of the day to exit a place.
So, stops ought to all the time be on the market for my part.
Rayner (01:02:52)
To illustrate assuming that you simply’re simply going to go together with a standard breakout, you realize, you’ve your entry, your stops, and your goal, proper, which is, you realize, you are fairly decided forward of time.
To illustrate the commerce begins to maneuver in your favor do you then sort of like you realize micromanage these trades or it is both going to be hitting your cease loss or your goal?
Aksel (01:03:18)
The statistics that I present are its chart sample value goals as a result of like I mentioned if I apply 2 ATR, 3 ATR, which one is serving whom we do not know.
So I give a set of occurrences and that is how I divided them into sort one, sort two, and sort three, so individuals can get a really feel of these numbers.
What I do is outline a chart sample negation degree, not a cease loss, however a chart sample negation.
For instance, with head and shoulders backside, it is the low of the suitable shoulder that negates the sample, okay?
So to illustrate we have now a head and shoulder prime, the suitable shoulder of the pinnacle and shoulder prime is the sample negation degree, which is also the extent for a protracted sign for a head and shoulder failure.
So it really works completely.
So for ascending triangles, the regulation contained in the sample boundary, the minor regulation contained in the sample boundary is the chart sample negation.
For a rectangle, it is slightly bit extra subjective as a result of it is a flat space.
So I attempt to discover a degree, a minor low contained in the sample that would act as a chart sample negation degree.
So the statistics that I’ve compiled are both shares which might be reaching the chart sample negation or they go to the sample value goal.
That is sensible.
Rayner (01:05:00)
Okay, that is sensible.
I am simply pondering by means of proper, you realize once you mentioned that you simply’re buying and selling rectangles after which possibly it is a sort 4 breakout the place it is a failed breakout.
I’ll assume that that is a chart that you will in all probability not commerce for some time as a result of proper now your rectangle sort of like appears to be like a bit bizarre with a spike up and spike down or would you sort of like redraw the triangle to take it under consideration that almost all current excessive of the breakout, the false breakout?
Aksel (01:05:58)
No, I simply moved to the following alternative.
So even once I was managing funds you’ve a mandate, a benchmark, so the universe is proscribed, okay, so if a inventory is within the index and it had a failed breakout you scale back publicity.
However when it completes the sample on the upside it’s important to enhance publicity since you can not.
So it’s important to, so that chance set was limiting. However for particular person concepts that you’ve got a clean sheet, you’ve an entire clean sheet to work on, you do not, you are not restricted to that failed breakout.
As a result of as soon as a faker, it is going to be once more a faker sooner or later. So why not go together with a extra clear alternative?
Begin from scratch. So I began avoiding the sort 3 breakouts, and re-entry methods.
Although if you wish to seize it, I even have written about it and featured a re-entry technique as properly for individuals who are restricted to a sure universe and must commerce that inventory, they should get in.
So a re-completion of the sample could be your re-entry technique.
These are the sort 3 breakouts, that is 12.5% of the breakouts.
Rayner (1:07:09)
So what are a number of the strategies that you simply use to reenter such sort 3 breakouts?
Aksel (01:07:15)
Sort 3 breakouts are those who penetrate the sample boundary after which get well above the sample boundary.
So when you have utilized the ATR, to illustrate trailing ATR stops to enter, it might be the identical degree.
So the inventory breaches that sample boundary.
With the identical share transfer or ATR transfer could be your reentry degree.
Once more, you’ll place the cease beneath the sample boundary.
Rayner (1:07:47)
Bought it.
So from what I am listening to, to illustrate…
You recognize, the worth breaks out, it comes again down. To illustrate the latest excessive is at $60.
So if the worth exceeds $60 by a sure ATR margin, you may get lengthy as soon as once more as a re-entry.
Is sensible.
Bought it.
Superior.
So possibly now we are able to know, I feel that phase was very technical and I admire it.
Even, I discovered a ton from that part.
However now I sort of need to transfer on possibly to a extra macro perspective of buying and selling.
So earlier you spoke about coming into the tip of the week and finish of the day, proper?
So how do you determine, man, this chart sample, I am going to commerce it on the finish of the day, or this one can be an end-of-week chart sample?
Aksel (01:08:30)
How do you sort of like determine on that?
It is the size that you are looking at.
So should you’re a each day scale chart, it is necessary to deal with the end-of-day value motion.
In the event you’re a weekly scale value chart, it is the end-of-week value motion.
For instance, gold, two charts, I future weekly and month-to-month and that is the month and March was the primary time that it is closed strongly above the sample boundary.
However the weekly sign got here in March.
So the primary week of March, if I am not mistaken, was the weekly breakout sign.
It was a powerful weekly candle.
So should you’re trying and buying and selling the weekly scale value motion, it is best to have acted on the finish of that week.
However from a really long-term asset allocation perspective, you’ll be able to simply look ahead to that month-to-month shut and place your self accordingly.
Okay, so one of many issues that I used to be doing was largely specializing in the weekly scale charts once I was managing the funds.
The rationale for that’s turnover.
You can’t carry on appearing on a each day after which if it fails, exit after which enter once more.
So we have been being punished by excessive turnover.
Due diligence that was being completed by buyers was primarily asking concerning the turnover. So when you have excessive turnover, entry and exit.
It isn’t thought-about to be good At the least for our mandate.
It was not thought-about to be good.
So I used to attend for a weekly sign and the Weekly sign was my affirmation as I used to be ready for the weekly sign you can not act on a Friday in The UAE it was Thursday’s finish of the week.
You can’t act on a Friday as a result of the scale of the fund would not assist you to enter with that dimension on the finish of the week.
So it’s important to scale in from Thursday or the day earlier than if it turns into clear that it’s a breakout.
It is means above the boundary.
So that you unfold your positioning into two days to 3 days and even two days plus Monday.
So I used to be trying on the weekly alerts to have extra conviction that it is a confirmed breakout.
That can also fail. There isn’t any assure.
However a minimum of you aren’t getting whip-sawed with each day scale charts, not to mention intraday.
So it is the size that you are looking at.
The each day scale focuses on the tip of the day.
The weekly scale would be the finish of the week closing.
Rayner (1:11:41)
You talked about that you simply could not enter all on a Friday, is it as a result of the scale of your fund is just too huge and should you entered one place on simply someday, you’ll sort of like transfer the market, is that why?
Aksel (1:11:49)
Yeah, yeah. I used to be, the scale, the scale was principally may lock the inventory restrict up in that day, one place dimension.
Rayner (1:12:06)
Oh, that is loopy. {Laughs}
So yeah, I do know that you simply scan many markets for alternatives from what I am seeing proper now. Crypto, Foreign exchange, commodities, and so on.
How do you go about scanning so many markets for this kind of completely different breakup alternatives?
Aksel (1:12:22)
I feel, on condition that we have mentioned the navy service days, besides the navy service days, which was round six months, I do not suppose there was a day that I have never opened my Metastock charting platform.
I do not suppose there was a day, even once I’m sick, it is like I really feel blind if I am not charts.
So for instance, on social media or Bloomberg, otherwise you hear, you see these charts, the information, the greenback is breaking out.
Then I’ve to open that greenback chart.
What’s breaking now?
Then I noticed that they have been speaking about an intraday value motion.
Nothing is occurring truly.
So each single day, I am in entrance of my charting platform for a minimum of two hours and doubtless I developed this functionality as a result of once you undergo tens of millions of charts over, since 2000.
Say 24 years now in all probability tens of millions of charts have piled up on this so once you undergo these charts you develop this sample recognition functionality.
I’ve seen it curiously sufficient once I go to a metropolis I move by means of a avenue espresso store after which I see that espresso store or that avenue on a TV.
I mentioned…We have been right here, it was this.
In order that attention-grabbing sample recognition improvement occurred in my mind in all probability over time.
After I have a look at the chart, I instantly deal with the suitable aspect and I do know what I am in search of.
I do know the qualities that I am in search of.
In order that helps me to cut back the time.
That I scroll by means of a chart.
Perhaps one second to 2 seconds is the time that I spend on a value chart.
I am going by means of the listing in a short time.
So to illustrate two to 3 hours per day is my overview course of.
Generally it exceeds, however I do not understand it.
So should you benefit from the course of, even when it is 4 or 5 hours, it will in all probability really feel like two hours.
Rayner (1:15:04)
That is dedication, man.
So, like, I imply, I am simply curious to listen to what’s your watchlist like.
Do you want to start out with like all of the shares that begin with capital A, then go right down to BCDEFG to Z?
Is that the way you undergo the person charts or shares?
Aksel (1:15:21)
The platform that I am utilizing MetaStock has change into increasingly organized through the years.
I really like their platform.
So that they have a drop-down menu for every market so Nasdaq 3000 names New York Inventory Trade 4000 names.
They’ve dangle sang index 40 names CAC 40 names so I added all of them into an inventory and divided them into Asia, Europe, America’s Center East, and Africa.
In order that’s a bunch of shares.
Proper now, in my, for my timing, it is 11:16 in two hours, and Asia will shut.
Asia will embody Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand shares, uh, shares which might be above a market cap of $500 million.
Uh, that is my filtering.
So I’ll sit down and spend a great one and a half hours, two hours to undergo these shortly.
With my timing round seven o’clock, which is after my supper time, Europe closes.
So I am going by means of Europe and the Center East, Africa shares.
Then on the finish of the day, round my time, 11:15, 11 o’clock US closes.
US is a bigger universe and I do not need to keep too lengthy.
So what I do is I attempt to go half of the US listing round 11 after which the following morning I proceed once I get up principally from 6.30 6 o’clock until 8 o’clock I do my US research as properly.
In order that’s how I handle the overview course of.
These are each day, day by day I do that and on the finish of the week, on weekends, I do the identical for weekly scale charts.
No finish of the month.
I am not doing that.
For weeklies, I am doing the weekly as properly.
Rayner (1:17:48)
So simply like every day is like hundreds of charts every day. Every day you are simply going by means of.
Aksel (1:17:49)
Yeah.
Rayner (1:17:50)
So if such as you take two seconds for a chart, you undergo a thousand charts, you realize, it is like you are able to do the mathematics, proper?
How a lot time do you spend?
Yeah.
It isn’t going to be two seconds since you take time to go from one chart to some possibly some delay from the platform and stuff like that.
Wow. Wow.
All I can say is wow {Laughs}
Okay so my subsequent query was about to ask, what’s your tackle buying and selling pullback?
I feel you talked about that earlier, should you look ahead to a pullback you are going to miss the transfer 27% of the time particularly if it is a sort 1 breakout.
So I feel I am going to skip that query until you’ve one thing so as to add about that.
Do you’ve something so as to add about you realize?
Aksel (1:18:20)
Yeah, I feel pullbacks if it is a part of your technique okay it’s important to know that a minimum of from my statistics being a retest and rallying.
So that is your universe and should you’re capable of handle the risk-reward as a result of it is gonna offer you a greater entry, proper?
When you’ve a pullback.
It is also troublesome to time the place the place the pullback is gonna cease.
Generally the pullback is brief.
Generally it involves the sample boundary.
In order that ready or that not getting stuffed and that commerce is, uh, it is filled with regrets.
I want I put it right here.
I want I put my entry right here.
So the place do you precisely put that entry?
So ready for that pullback, I felt, I really feel prefer it’s lots of regrets.
The regrets are painful.
You do not need to have regrets.
You need to float execute that technique and settle for the consequence.
Rayner (1:19:37)
Since you realize, you have a look at hundreds of charts every day, I am fairly certain a couple of buying and selling alternative may come up.
Perhaps they’re each like, you realize, rectangle patterns.
So how do you then determine which commerce you need to take?
Aksel (1:19:50)
It is the rectangles primarily after which there the listing drops down as a result of the chance is what information occasion is pending.
I wish to see breakouts that happen with none information impact.
So to illustrate the inventory has an incomes announcement within the subsequent two, or three days and the inventory is breaking out.
I’d somewhat skip that as a result of there can be lots of volatility information bulletins hitting the market.
I wish to go together with these breakouts that haven’t any occasions round them.
So both company actions or information bulletins, so the listing drops down.
In order that’s how I filter and primarily deal with the rectangles.
For shorter-term buying and selling, the most effective are from two months to 4 to 5 months consolidations.
For the long term, I wish to take the weekly alerts on weekly charts, that are year-long to 2 years lengthy.
These are the longer-term patterns in which you can have wider stops and let go, giving room for that concept to develop.
However for a shorter time period, you even have this filtering that comes from two months to 4 to 5 months breakouts.
The tighter the vary, the higher it’s.
The worth of that vary needs to be ideally 10 to fifteen p.c of the worth.
When these alternatives come up these are the upper conviction setups.
Rayner (1:22:12)
So once you mentioned the vary needs to be 10 to fifteen p.c of the worth, let’s sort of like make issues easy.
To illustrate the inventory value is at $100, so the vary needs to be anyplace between $85 to $100.
Aksel (1:22:21)
Precisely.
Rayner (1:22:24)
That sort of vary, proper? Precisely.
As a result of something white, then the vary will get ridiculously massive.
Yeah. Okay.
Is sensible.
Okay.
What’s your tackle the idea of relative energy?
Is that this one thing that you simply take note of?
Aksel (1:22:34)
Relative energy, sure, I take note of.
I take note of and with my work with a number of the funds for which I do consultancy, I additionally assist them with relative efficiency charts.
Relative efficiency charts are useful and Apparently sufficient chart patents type on them as properly, however you should not exaggerate the Number of the charts.
It is once more rectangles and a few quick flag consolidations which you can act on or else looking for unique chart patterns on relative efficiency is slightly bit overstretched.
So what I used to do is on the time of administration of the funds, I had the denominator because the index, MSCI UAE index.
So all shares relative to the benchmark I needed to undergo to see which shares are outperforming the benchmark, and which shares are underperforming.
So you can not go towards the tide.
It is the larger image.
So to illustrate proper now you have a look at Nasdaq versus Russell, Nasdaq is outperforming.
So the tech shares are the place the motion is occurring.
So it is possibly higher should you’re a top-down man, you’ll be trying on the tech shares versus the Russell names.
So relative efficiency is necessary and it may be utilized in numerous methods as properly I get pleasure from them as a result of they’re pure value charts.
It is just like the Euro versus the greenback, Microsoft versus Tesla. It is the identical thought.
The identical patterns can type the way in which an FX chart is forming.
Rayner (1:24:41)
Would you then like to make use of that and think about that as a part of your buying and selling?
For instance, you discover sort of specific commodities A and B proper?
They’re each commodities.
Perhaps A Commodity A, the relative energy is stronger in comparison with commodity B and possibly commodity B has a possible rectangle breakout occurring as properly and possibly for commodity A, the breakout has already occurred.
So would you think about shopping for the breakout on commodity B, realizing that when it comes to relative energy, it is not as robust in comparison with commodity A?
Does that make sense?
Aksel (1:25:14)
Yeah, if I used to be making use of a distinct technique, I’d have.
However at this level, it’s too time-consuming to include completely different instruments and inputs into my decision-making.
As a result of I am a pure momentum-based breakout technique man.
So for me in a bunch, to illustrate, I am European banks recently, the European banks are the good transfer.
To illustrate I spot 10 completely different European banks, okay?
For me, a very powerful sign is the primary sign.
The one which breaks out first, would be the strongest.
So I am going with that.
I do not wait simply because HSBC has higher fundamentals.
I do not look ahead to HSBC to interrupt out when ING is breaking out or Unicredit is breaking out.
The breakout sign issues probably the most for me and once I’m these European banks, simply doing relative efficiency between every certainly one of them is tremendous time-consuming, however it may be completed.
I’ve completed it prior to now.
I am nonetheless serving to some funds with the consultancy to take a look at relative efficiency and I can say that it is an necessary element which you can take into accounts to seize longer-term or barely longer-term actions between shares, which one to want.
Rayner (1:27:05)
However for your self, as a result of to maintain issues easy, you simply merely go alongside the primary breakout and simply hold issues easy as it’s.
Aksel (1:27:11)
Yeah.
Rayner (1:27:12)
So I feel one other factor that from what I’ve gathered is that you simply love buying and selling rectangles and likewise you have a look at the 200 interval shifting common to sort of outline the long-term pattern.
So value is above the 200 MA, the pattern is up, and you purchase the rectangle, that is good. So what about… So am I proper then to say that…
The inventory market often is extra in a long-term uptrend, it is extra bullish than bearish.
So most of your trades, I assume, are extra lengthy than quick.
Aksel (1:27:41)
Yeah, yeah.
Lengthy concepts are in all probability 80% of all of the alerts to this point.
We had two completely different years, 2018 and 2020 throughout COVID, when markets tanked and when there was a V reversal, I failed badly.
Okay, I’m not capable of seize V reversals as a result of I am not a backside picker.
I wish to see shares rebound, type some sort of a base, after which begin a brand new pattern.
So at that half, I am misplaced.
What I do is I attempt to instantly have a look at different alternatives that can provide me the upside when the markets are having a V reversal.
So principally…
The 200-day shifting common, the 200-day shifting common could be very useful in figuring out these.
So in 2018 and 2020, the MSCI All Nation World Index, which is the benchmark that I am offers me the general perspective for world equities as a result of I am additionally rising market shares.
Generally there are some frontier equities that I future.
So the MSAL Nation World Index, with its 200-day shifting common, when it falls beneath the 200-day common, and the market crashes or collapses, you begin seeing bearish chart patterns.
I used to be capable of seize possibly 10 to fifteen% of the concepts as bearish setups.
However largely it has been bullish setups and I can say 80% have been lengthy concepts from the classical chart patterns.
However that does not imply that if inventory markets enter right into a bear market and keep in a bear market subsequent 5 to 6 years, we’re not going to see bearish chart patterns.
Quite the opposite, there can be bearish chart patterns growing.
You simply want a longtime pattern to see increasingly on the finish of the day are usually not magic, are usually not voodoo, or they’re consolidation durations, okay?
So when shares consolidate, they type a type of patterns.
It is both a rectangle or ascending triangle or head and shoulder continuation they usually all inform the identical factor.
After this consolidation, a pattern may develop and your job is to seize that pattern to have the ability to seize that pattern, you first must determine the consolidation.
If you do not know what the stage of the market is, you will be unable to outline the pattern interval or the next pattern interval.
So chart sample helps us to determine that consolidation interval.
It is simply giving it a reputation.
Rayner (1:31:09)
So I’ll backtrack slightly bit right here and possibly discuss consolidation rectangles.
So I need to know the way do you draw these boundaries.
As a result of not all the time the chart, the worth will simply the precise sense, rebound.
Generally it’d exceed, and typically it may not even contact that degree.
So how do you then join the dots?
How do you draw that horizontal line in your chart?
What’s your strategy?
Aksel (1:31:30)
It is slightly bit more durable than a science.
I am making use of the best-fit precept and making an attempt to the touch as many factors as attainable on the worth chart and get shut as a lot as attainable to that minor excessive or minor low.
In order that’s how I am drawing the boundaries.
Rayner (1:31:58)
Am I proper to say that there can be instances when if the boundary is not as wanted to write down the phrase want as you such as you simply ignore it and transfer on to the following…
Aksel (1:32:08)
Ignore ignore sure ignore and transfer.
Rayner (1:32:09)
Okay
Aksel (1:32:09)
I am not sure with uh with that particular alternative that is the that is the great half about uh having a large universe and a clean sheet.
Rayner (1:32:23)
Yeah, that is the benefit of hundreds of charts every day. {Laughs}
Aksel (1:32:24)
Yeah, you’ll be able to you’ll be able to have a look at one other alternative that has the proper boundary and act on that.
Rayner (1:32:33)
Okay, and possibly to the touch on threat administration, how do you then handle your threat?
I feel earlier you talked about setting stops and targets, however possibly when it comes to share dangers or possibly having a portfolio of 10, or 20 shares, is there like a restrict, a cap to what number of shares or positions you may be in at anybody time limit?
Aksel (1:32:50)
Effectively, with the short-term technique that I am making use of for my very own, a most of 5 to 6 with 1% of AUM in danger.
This does not imply six of them keep open.
A few of them attain value targets, a few of them get triggered and it’s important to get out.
However largely no more than six open concepts at a time, which places you round 4 to five% worth in danger.
At any time limit.
Rayner (1:33:36)
So if the worst factor occurs, simply increase, proper?
5% max loss, that is it.
Aksel (1:33:40)
Generally not precisely as a result of some shares open with a niche down, but in addition there are gap-up openings as properly.
So low or massive numbers handle it over the long-term that unhealthy issues can occur, however good issues can occur as properly on the upside the place you have not measured.
That’s gifted to you want the way in which a niche down occurs nevertheless it nets out with lots of of concepts.
Rayner (1:34:18)
Primarily based in your possibly expertise or information that you’ve got, do you discover that within the shares that you simply maintain, the hole up, happens extra typically than the hole down?
Because you’re buying and selling the course of the pattern?
Aksel (1:34:28)
I feel expertise over 4 or 5 years, I’d say equal quantity of instances I’ve skilled.
I’ve skilled some good surprises on the upside and a few nasty surprises on the draw back as properly.
Rayner (1:34:53)
When the market is open, so I am guessing your stops, you then would put the stops along with your brokerage or is it extra of a psychological cease as soon as the goal is reached?
No, no, it is all the time on the market.
The stops should be all the time available on the market.
Okay, obtained it.
Perhaps simply to maneuver on and discuss slightly bit about crypto, proper, since you do share fairly a number of crypto charts.
What’s your take?
The crypto markets possibly typically?
Aksel (1:35:18)
Crypto markets are attention-grabbing.
So many tickers on the market.
Rayner (1:35:29)
Sure.
Aksel (1:35:29)
It is like shares that go on IPO and firms ultimately, go bankrupt, they usually get delisted.
I’ve so many tickers that obtained delisted within the crypto house.
So, It is one other instrument of hypothesis.
That is what I am seeing.
Some are gonna survive and change into a de-think, which is gonna be a part of the next-gen, in all probability foreign money or the monetary medium that we become involved in.
However most of them are going to be simply the periphery hypothesis instrument.
That is how I am seeing it.
However what crypto created is straightforward entry for the final crowd to at least one, open an account.
Opening an account is tremendous simple, proper?
With the digital camera recognition, you are capable of open an account deposit cash, and commerce cryptos.
The second is that it allowed the gang to become involved in monetary devices and have the opportunity of creating wealth or shedding cash.
At present you can not even open a checking account in that quick interval, which is a way more established establishment or a brokerage account.
You need to undergo so many due diligence and checks and so forth.
So its easy accessibility helps it unfold broadly and quick as properly.
After I share a crypto chart It will get 10-15 instances extra likes in social media than a inventory chart and a inventory chart just isn’t a easy inventory chart.
It is typically Tesla, however a FET US greenback crypto chart is getting 300 likes versus a Tesla with 100 likes.
The involvement in crypto is very large.
That is what I am seeing proper now.
Rayner (1:38:09)
As a result of crypto is sort of a brand new market in comparison with established markets just like the S&P, and Nasdaq.
So do you discover that possibly breakouts in these markets are usually extra dependable in that sense?
Aksel (1:38:20)
Sure, it is momentum-driven, much less fundamentals.
It jogs my memory of my early days within the UAE, the place corporations weren’t publishing monetary statements each quarter.
You used to attend, there have been delays, and so forth.
So even the elemental fund managers needed to depend on technical alerts to handle sure positions.
So elementary data was restricted.
So it was largely momentum-driven and psychology-driven.
Within the crypto market, I am seeing it comparable.
Besides in all probability Bitcoin or ETH which has a narrative.
Yeah.
So largely it’s, it is momentum pushed.
I am seeing, and the share strikes additionally present that per day.
Rayner (1:39:27)
I used to be simply pondering too, so earlier you talked about your short-term buying and selling, at most you maintain I feel six positions, however I forgot to ask, what about your long-term buying and selling or investments?
How do you then handle your threat in that side?
Aksel (1:39:38)
Lengthy-term I wish to go together with extra illiquid property.
I am diversifying my property into gold, actual property, and a bigger portfolio of passive income-generating property.
So the buying and selling aspect just isn’t an enormous half, however simply sufficient to generate some return, and different elements are extra tied to passive income-generating property. I’ve had some success over the previous couple of years in actual property.
It is in all probability attention-grabbing {that a} inventory dealer or anyone who has managed funds that have not held the property bodily is in search of extra bodily property to steadiness his portfolio.
So I just like the bodily side of issues.
To see the true property, to see its presence.
Rayner (1:41:08)
Let’s discuss actual property then, proper?
So is it like actual property, the place do you make investments?
Is it areas of your experience abroad, native, and so on?
Aksel (1:41:17)
Actual property is the place the place I dwell principally.
I by no means have a look at actual property as an funding, however extra like would I wanna dwell on this place?
That is my preliminary motivation.
I’ve realized that over the previous six, or seven years, the true property that I obtained concerned in Bulgaria, Japanese European market, some in Greece as properly, which is a closed market, each have been in resorts.
So very a lot tied to the economic system and the economic system is booming.
In the event you have a look at the shares of Airbnb, reserving.com, journey corporations, and leisure corporations, their shares are booming.
So the economic system is booming.
There may be inflation and people property have tripled and value over the previous 4 to 5 years from the time that I obtained concerned.
Keep in mind they don’t seem to be big-ticket purchases so I’ve realized that smaller items are extra in demand as a result of in the present day’s household buildings have 4 or five-bedroom locations versus they’re proud of a small household, two-bedroom, one-bedroom items, and homes.
So these property have picked up extra, I really feel like in value versus massive properties.
That is my expertise on this area.
Rayner (1:43:36)
So from what I am listening to, you realize, you’ll need to purchase actual property locations that you simply need to dwell in and ideally sort of just like the smaller dimension items, proper?
Due to the household construction.
Aksel (1:43:45)
Yeah. I wish to see, I wish to really feel the market as a result of I do not, I do not need to go and put money into Hong Kong proper now.
Okay. Actual property, which I don’t know about.
What I am seeing, I am comfy with.
I need to breathe that market’s momentum.
I need to see the infrastructure enhancements and the developments which might be going down in that place.
You go on trip, you go see the enhancements and you’ve got a sense of the place.
So these are the locations that I really feel comfy inserting my investments.
Rayner (1:44:28)
Is it an analogous philosophy as breakout buying and selling?
You need to see momentum occurring round that place earlier than you sort of like…
Aksel (1:44:34)
Seems to be like, yeah.
Form of. Okay.
You need to see the affirmation.
You need to see…
Rayner (1:44:43)
So you are not a lot of an individual of like, to illustrate…
“Oh, there is a monetary disaster, you realize, actual property costs are low, let’s go in and purchase some stuff”
You are not sort of worth investing per se, however extra of like, you realize, whereas issues are doing properly, let’s get in at this, you realize, value when issues are trying good.
Aksel (1:44:56)
Uh, yeah type of but in addition let’s be honest as a result of uh, I obtained fortunate with uh with a few of my uh Investments right here in Bulgaria uh I I noticed the chance, and uh, this in all probability is due to the locations that I have been to that I lived somewhere else.
I’ve seen that there’s a chance that persons are not seeing it.
Uh, and, uh, it ended up being the underside.
Hmm. Um, in order that no one wished to the touch proper earlier than COVID and COVID even, uh, made issues extra thrilling as a result of, uh, the place that I am proper now could be away from cities.
So individuals rushed out of cities to the suburbs and other people began valuing life exterior of cities, which gave them extra freedom.
The house workplace idea additionally helped to push the costs of suburban residing.
Rayner (1:46:26)
So now that costs are like, you realize, increased in comparison with the place to procure them, do you’ve plans to exit these long-term trades or is it sort of like proceed holding?
Aksel (1:46:35)
I feel proceed holding as a result of they’re producing passive revenue and it is all the time good to have passive income-generating property in your holdings.
They pay the payments and hold you comfy when you’re buying and selling.
In order that’s it.
Proper now I haven’t got plans to promote costs are actually low in Bulgaria, particularly on this a part of the nation.
I do not know the way issues have been in Singapore or Asia, however for instance, in Dubai, we’re speaking about costs of $2,500 to $3,000 per sq. meter.
We have been at 300 euro per sq. meter right here and now costs have picked as much as 1100 euro per sq. meter and there may be in all probability potential of it going to 1500, 1600 euro per sq. meter.
It could simply go there as a result of individuals begin valuing high quality of life in another way.
As companies, because the idea of companies change, changing into increasingly on-line, schooling is changing into increasingly on-line persons are not tied to cities anymore.
So they need the contemporary air, they need the leisure actions.
So I really feel like increasingly exterior of cities are gonna profit from this.
Change of tendencies in AI and the way we work.
How we work and the way we examine.
Rayner (1:48:48)
A really comparable phenomenon has occurred in Singapore as properly.
I feel COVID, we thought housing property costs would drop, however such as you mentioned… extra individuals do business from home, distant working.
Costs right here truly soared to fairly excessive now.
So I feel we talked about per sq. toes, you realize, personal properties about $1,000 per sq. toes.
I am undecided what the conversion to a sq. meter, however a typical property right here, a thousand sq. toes home you’ll be able to count on to pay from you realize between 4 hundred thousand to 1,000,000 {dollars} and this public housing just isn’t even personal.
Personal you are seven figures and past over right here so it is fairly loopy over right here yeah.
Aksel (1:49:27)
Yeah I imply throughout an inflationary time that is an asset that is holding its worth and rising its worth so it is it is by default that okay there may be the greenback’s inside worth of the paper currencies are happening, so the property are holding its worth.
Rayner (1:49:55)
So is that the identical cause why to procure gold, you talked about gold as properly.
Aksel (1:50:50)
Sure, sure.
These are the identical causes that I wished to enter exhausting property due to the worth of the shedding worth of the currencies.
Rayner (1:50:19)
Yeah, the declining buying energy.
Aksel (1:50:20)
Declining buying energy.
Yeah.
Particularly I noticed the chart of- What you have been shopping for, you are not capable of fill your basket in a retailer with what you have been paying two years in the past.
No means.
Rayner (1:50:36)
I feel you posted the chart of the greenback towards the Turkish lira a number of instances.
It’s loopy.
That is- That is ridiculous.
Aksel (1:50:39)
Unlucky, very unlucky.
Rayner (1:50:40)
What about Bitcoin, I am curious since Bitcoin is sort of like a digital objective in that sense.
Is that this one thing that you simply maintain as properly?
Aksel (1:50:51)
Cryptocurrencies are an attention-grabbing discipline.
It has its rules.
So with the really regulated devices, I wish to become involved, which is being out there now increasingly.
So so long as it’s regulated, given the nations that we’re residing in all over the place have their rules and limitations, nonetheless the institutional system just isn’t tremendous comfy with the instrument itself.
They’ll change into extra comfy with regulatory leeways and allowances in numerous nations, I assume.
Rayner (1:51:51)
I perceive.
Now let’s transfer on to the closing part, lets?
I would like to listen to possibly extra about TechCharts, which is the academic firm that you simply based.
Aksel (1:51:01)
Yeah, so TechCharts began in 2016 as an academic service.
So what I’ve taught is that I’ve developed this capacity to take a look at charts cleanly and I noticed that so many people who find themselves beginning in technical evaluation and charting have the opportunity of shedding a few years the way in which I did.
Shifting from one idea to a different, hoping of relying on a distinct technique, issues in another way, and determining.
So I mentioned — I can simply assist individuals to shortcut a minimum of two to 3 years of their journey and begin with a clear perspective of what’s working most of the time.
That was my preliminary motivation as a result of I labored with so many elementary guys and I imagine that through the years that I labored with them, I’ve modified their perspective in direction of classical charting and charting itself.
So a elementary colleague of mine would sit in entrance of a Bloomberg display with all of the codes, and tickers, after which he would have a each day chart open on a portfolio that he is managing and rebalancing each quarter.
So I used to say, why are you trying on the each day chart?
You ought to be a weekly chart for this inventory, what it’s doing and I defined to them the pattern durations and the consolidations, probably the most primary sense.
I noticed that there’s a lot of awakening occurring there.
I feel with this service, I helped many individuals to have that awakening and to maneuver quicker to the following stage of their journey the place they’ll begin making use of the chance administration and psychology of issues and study buying and selling by making use of it, by doing it.
As a result of I’ve a perception that you simply can not train buying and selling.
You’ll be able to educate a health care provider, you’ll be able to educate an engineer, however that particular person must exit and expertise it themselves.
An excellent well-known physician and an unusual physician, the distinction is that it is the identical as an excellent dealer and an unusual dealer.
There’ll all the time be this distinction. You, even the Turtle merchants got the foundations and find out how to apply them, however each certainly one of them ended up completely different.
So it is that second a part of that journey that they’ll begin specializing in by accelerating this trial and error within the charting half that I need to assist.
I feel it has been useful for many individuals.
In the meantime Uh, let’s not neglect I am cooking meals and I am serving it so the concepts that I am producing.
There might be 20-25 concepts and I would make the most of 5 of them however 15 of them are going to go to the rubbish or profit a number of the members.
So I made a decision that I may put out these concepts that I’ve came upon as a part of the membership service.
So there may be the academic half and the applying half, the signaling a part of the service that has been useful to many who haven’t got the time to undergo these charts day by day to place that two hours additional time or three hours additional time.
So I feel it has been a win-win.
It retains me extra centered and disciplined once I write issues once I compile issues collectively, I keep extra centered. It helps me to arrange myself.
It helps the members additionally to get one thing in return the place first they shorten their time of analysis, second, they shorten their time of journey in studying charts and changing into extra able to issues.
Entered by By giving them these academic movies academic facets of issues or how issues labored prior to now and the way issues can transfer sooner or later lots of people suppose that with the event of the monetary markets Classical charting stopped working.
However once I put a chart from the Forties Edwards and McGee and put a chart from the crypto market in the present day, it is surprising to see that.
They comply with the identical sample in completely completely different markets for nearly 60 years, 70 years, or perhaps a century-long chart having the identical sample as in the present day.
In order that’s like awakening for lots of people.
It makes them extra fascinated with researching the sphere, which I feel I have been capable of obtain to this point.
Rayner (1:58:14)
Would you say then since breakouts are inclined to work higher in lesser in style names, much less liquid markets, so chart patterns or classical chart patterns typically, would you discover higher alternatives within the extra obscure markets, in comparison with these that are very, that lots of people take note of.
So I assume for a brand new dealer who possibly desires to discover a higher likelihood of success, deal with these obscure markets somewhat than the very talked-about ones.
I would not say that as a result of like I mentioned, for instance, on Microsoft, you may not discover that good rectangle forming each different month or in a yr, thrice or 4 instances in a yr.
However as soon as in a yr, you may discover it in a really crowded inventory like that.
However in much less centered names you may discover that arrange extra often.
That is what I can say as a result of I’ve seen very liquid names having good chart patterns.
This does not imply they do not type in any respect however they’re much less frequent to come back throughout.
They’re in all probability extra just like the sample boundaries might be extra violated than a much less crowded inventory.
Rayner (1:59:35)
Okay, so simply to make clear, once you discuss frequency, possibly to illustrate — A very talked-about inventory, possibly over 5 years, that tradable sample may occur one time, whereas not so in style inventory over 5 years that tradable sample may seem possibly 5 or 6 instances.
Is that what you imply by the frequency?
Aksel (1:59:51)
Precisely.
Yeah.
Rayner (1:59:52)
Bought it.
Okay.
Aksel (1:59:53)
However then you’ll be able to go and take that Microsoft after which take that Tesla, take that ExxonMobil, take the opposite identify, after which enhance these patterns forming.
So you continue to have that choice.
That is why I all the time advise you to widen your analysis universe.
Do not have a look at simply Fb.
Do not have a look at only a Tesla identify.
Take a look at a wider universe.
Go slightly bit extra exterior of the standard names to have the ability to discover extra of those setups.
Rayner (2:00:31)
That is sensible.
Additionally, I feel in your web site, I noticed that there’s this type of like a tagline that claims that…In affiliation with the issue buying and selling, which is, you realize, from Peter Brandt.
In order that’s sort of just like the association or the hyperlink down there?
Aksel (2:00:47)
So the hyperlink is that Peter has been a mentor. In 2011, I learn his Diary of a Skilled Commodity Dealer.
Principally, in 2007, I began making use of the classical charting rules to the UAE markets after which I began seeing the success then in 2011 I began studying Peter’s guide and who has been making use of it to the commodity markets and all of it clicked.
We interacted after which I joined his dealer’s boot camp in 2014
We began pondering of doing this larger library of classical chart patterns collectively.
So all this information that goes into this database that I am creating about classical chart patterns will hopefully change into a part of an even bigger factor sooner or later and a part of a go-to supply in classical charting.
So principally in 2016 after we launched this TechCharts membership service, our motivation was to deal with equities and attempt to gather as many information factors as attainable that we are able to examine sooner or later and even apply completely different threat administration to it to see what can come out of it.
So that is our affiliation with him, engaged on this collectively and making it a a lot bigger classical chart sample library.
Rayner (2:02:47)
Okay, obtained it.
Is there something proper that you simply want to add or discuss that we did not cowl in in the present day’s session?
Aksel (2:02:57)
In regards to the chart patterns, I need to focus on them as a result of we have touched on rectangles.
Our brains have the aptitude of discovering out restricted patterns in a single shot.
In the event you pressure your self on to illustrate one inventory to seek out eight or ten completely different chart patterns, you’ll be mistaken, you’ll be misled, and discover issues that do not exist.
So I need to shut this podcast session by giving a fast tip for people who find themselves beginning their journey to restrict the variety of patterns that they are in search of and enhance the variety of devices.
So to illustrate they deal with two to 3 patterns.
To illustrate a rectangle or cup with a deal with.
This cup with a deal with is the preferred recently due to the volatility contraction sample that has been mentioned in numerous books.
So to illustrate you have a look at a rectangle and cup with a deal with, however have a look at a thousand names.
That cup with deal with even restrict.
The interval that you simply’re in search of, like to illustrate 4 to 5 months of cup fake.
Sure, the alternatives can be restricted, however you will discover, that your eye will begin in search of that sample always, and it is possible for you to to seek out the patterns which might be legitimate on the worth chart.
Somewhat than opening one chart and making an attempt to focus and say…
Is there a symmetrical triangle?
Is there a wedge right here?
Is there a pattern line right here?
Is there a head and shoulder?
The listing goes on and it turns into complicated and the most effective truly, what I discovered is to restrict the patterns as a result of we can not course of that a lot data at one look.
Rayner (2:05:22)
This type of jogs my memory of a… I am undecided what is the precise time period nevertheless it’s one thing alongside the strains of the reticular activation system the place your mind begins to get very conversant in the sample that you’re seeing after which it sort of triggers every time such patterns seem.
It is sort of like muscle, it’s important to hold coaching it to develop that system, yeah?
Which is what you’ve got completed through the years, proper?
Hundreds of expenses keep every day and now everytime you see a sample, you realize, that is it, proper?
If not, you progress on to one thing else.
Aksel (2:05:47)
Yeah, I even recommend individuals print out the patterns that they’ve traded efficiently.
That could be a textbook rectangle, textbook head, and shoulder, and print it and publish it on their desktop and keep watch over that.
Control that to see if what they’re resembles the identical sample.
Be it the interval, be it the depth.
Quickly, synthetic intelligence software program will be capable of seize these.
I am 100% certain that we’re stepping into that course.
However till that occurs, we’re nonetheless alone on this technique of discovering the patterns that we need to commerce and act on them.
Rayner (2:06:38)
Superior and the place can merchants discover you, proper?
In the event that they need to join with you.
Aksel (2:06:43)
I am on Twitter, TechCharts, on-line I am on TechCharts.web and YouTube movies are additionally out there with the TechCharts extension.
So in the event that they go to my Twitter profile or X profile TechCharts, they’ll be capable of see the hyperlinks for YouTube and my web site as properly.
Rayner (2:07:13)
I extremely advocate proper, merchants achieve this as a result of your Twitter feed has one of many cleanest proper classical chart sample feeds that I’ve come throughout.
So you realize, merchants ought to examine your Twitter feed or X feed out.
Sure.
So thanks a lot on your time, Aksel.
I admire it.
It has been a unbelievable session, proper?
Talking with you.
Aksel (2:07:30)
Thanks, Rayner.
Similar right here.
I admire having me in your present.
