- Be able to look at a candlestick chart and gauge which places the market is trending versus where it is balancing
- Be able to look at a market profile chart and gauge which places the market is trending versus where it is balancing
- Understand the fractal nature of markets and how similar states and patterns develop at all time-frames
The benefits this session will give you:
- Being able to see the markets from within a logical and structured framework makes them much easier to understand and decipher correctly.
