Technical analysis
Candlestick and chart patterns, support and resistance, trends, indicators, divergence and reading more than one timeframe.
Start the courseRead candlestick signals in context
Measure a candle in pips, recognise the doji, hammer, shooting star and engulfing pattern, and learn why the same shape can mean opposite things depending on where it forms.
Mark support and resistance zones
Find the price areas where markets have turned before, draw them as zones rather than lines, and use role reversal and round numbers to plan entries, stops and targets.
Find the trend and draw trendlines
Label higher highs and higher lows, draw trendlines and channels you can project forward, and read the swing structure that tells you a trend has ended.
Recognise chart patterns and measure their targets
Spot flags, head and shoulders, double tops and bottoms and triangles, confirm them with a break, and work out the measured move, the stop and the size for each.
Use moving averages, RSI, MACD and VWAP to confirm price
What four common indicators measure, their default settings, how far each one lags, and how to use one of them to confirm a read you have already made from price.
Spot when momentum stops agreeing with price
Compare price swings with RSI or MACD swings to see when a trend is losing momentum (regular divergence) and when a pullback inside a trend may be ending (hidden divergence).
Mark supply, demand and imbalance zones before price returns
Draw supply and demand zones and three-candle fair value gaps, judge which ones are worth watching, and plan a trade from a zone once price reacts there.
Line up a higher-timeframe trend with a lower-timeframe entry
Use top-down analysis across three timeframes to choose a direction, find a zone and time an entry, then see how the entry timeframe changes your stop and position size.
