The ACD Method

Quote from Maverick74:

Monthly A up in Crude is 92.30. Just blasted through the weekly. Number lines are very strong.

i am only on page 250 right now in the thread so i'm sorry if this has been discussed, but you posted this kind of early, is there not a time confirmation for the weekly levels?

Yeah dude, it's on page 450...keep reading.

Just kidding. Yeah it's in there somewhere. I use a one hour confirmation for weekly A values. Again, not a magical number, just what I use.

thanks Mav

today was my first day to test out some of the levels i've built on SPX. i had a very narrow pivot just inside the opening range. once i had my A values i set up a small sized trade shorting the SPY once we closed 10 minutes below my lower pivot. i was going to use the high of the day as my stop.

once we confirmed the A down i added to the position.

now that we have leveled off i have gotten out of some of the position for a profit and am letting the rest ride with a stop at the top of the daily pivot range.

1 for 1 so far! still a work in progress though. right now i'm setting up my trade grid so i can see a bunch of different instruments and be able to visualize the strong and weak ones with one glance.

I should note that XIV has a confirmed weekly A down now though. That does not bode as well for ES.

actually, i was just setting up a VXX chart. do you use XIV instead because it's the inverse so it makes it easier to visualize the price action when compared to ES?

You can use either one, both work great with ACD.

stopped myself out of some AMZN call options today. got a weekly and a daily A down in both

Generally speaking, once a product fails at the monthly A up, you don't want to try to get long on a momentum trade. AMZN failed at the monthly A up last week at 261. The monthly A down is now the target at 243.
