Swing Trading with the 4-hour chart
Part 2: Trade the Fake!
In the second part of the series "Swing Trading using the 4-hour chart" the HeikinAshi Trader
speaks about the phenomenon of stop fishing and Fakeouts as well as the many deceptions that
major players and algorithms stage in today's financial markets. These often seem more the rule
than the exception.
But these circumstances are what a clever swing trader can exploit by turning the tables.
Instead of falling for the many tricks of the Smart Money, he can learn how to identify their
tracks in the chart. From this, he can develop a highly profitable swing trading strategy that
focuses exclusively on the detection of so-called "fakes". Often, it turns out that the
deception of the major players represents just the start of a significant movement. To trade
this is mostly high rewarding.
With reference to several examples in different markets and technical chart situations the
author follows the traces of the Smart Money. With practice, every trader can locate these
tricks on a chart and identify the underlying intentions. Such a strategy would correspond more
to the reality of today's markets, instead of trying to beat the market with outdated methods.
