Course Description

Would you like to learn about a chart type that helps you to spot reversals, makes the 'trend' more obvious and helps add 'consistency' to your trading & investing?! 

Calling the turn (reversals), when trading any financial market, is a notoriously difficult thing to achieve with any given consistency. There are thousands of different technical analysis tools and techniques that try to give you this edge. One of the best and most simple I’ve come across is the Line Break chart.

Line Break charts, due to the evolution of trading and technical analysis software packages can be made into very successful trading strategies and a great accompaniment to your general market analysis.

WHAT IS A LINE BREAK?

The line break is a very useful Japanese style chart configuration that takes out a lot of the guess work from calculating turning points and understanding the trend in a chart. It works across all assets and time frames. 

The Line Break chart, like its Japanese cousins the Renko chart and Kagi chart, ignores time and only updates when prices move by a certain criteria. It's a fascinating and unique approach to technical analysis that I think can't be ignored.

SUMMARY:

  • This is a course for all levels of ability - beginners through to the more experienced interested in learning about another unique concept from the world of Japanese technical analysis. 

  • It is relevant to many different styles of trading e.g. day, scalping, trend following, swing trading etc.

  • Great for creating 'discipline' and a 'systematic' approach to your trading.

  • You will learn how to master this chart type, be able to enhance it further and be able to construct your own trading strategies around the Line Break chart concept.

Goals

  • You'll learn how to master a unique tool in Technical Analysis - Japanese Line Break charts. 
  • You'll learn how to utilise these charts to give your trading an edge and put the odds of success more on your side! 
  • Line Break charts will also help sort out your bad trading psychology, add discipline and help you create a more systematic approach to your trading.

Prerequisites

  • The course is for all abilities, but a prior knowledge of Technical Analysis and trading would be advantageous but not essential. 
  • You will need a Technical Analysis charting package that allows you to utilise Japanese charts such as Line Break and add indicators and tools on top of these charts. 
  • If you don't have this, don't worry we can point you in the right direction within the course (the free intro Section 1 covers this). 
  • If you just want to learn about new methods of applying Line Break charts for purely educational purposes and don't want to apply it practically then you wont need a Technical Analysis charting package.

About me


Stephen Hoad is a trading and risk management professional and financial markets expert, with more than twenty five years’ experience on trading floors in the City of London and around the world. What makes his career history so unique is that he has been both the game keeper and the poacher; providing him with a rare insight into how the world’s financial markets work and are traded.

He started his journey at one of the world’s largest American Investment Banks in Fixed Income. He then honed his risk and quantitative risk management skills in equities, money markets and commodities at both Japanese and German investment banks, before moving to a role at the world’s largest private company – Koch Industries.

Here, as a Front Office Risk Manager, he specialised in Commodities; designing and optimising global trading and risk strategies. He then moved over to the trading desk as a fully-fledged options market maker, proprietary trader and technical analyst / trader.

He is now a successful proprietary trader, trading his own funds and strategies, which are based on Technical Analysis and Behavioural Science and computer / quantitative science.

Stephen is an Economics graduate, who also holds an MSc in Financial Markets & Derivatives and is one of the worlds leading Technical Analysts. Professionally qualified through The Society of Technical Analysts (STA) he holds the MSTA qualification – being one of only a rare few to achieve a distinction level in this vast subject. For the last five years he has been on the core panel of specialist lectures for the STA, teaching Technical Analysis to the professionals as part of the STA diploma course, and at Universities (Kings College / Queen Mary) on post graduate programmes.

He is regularly a guest speaker at conferences and corporate events and currently leads a Bloomberg outreach programme at Canterbury Christ Church University.

He specialises in Technical Analysis (Japanese charting techniques), systematic and automated trading, derivatives products, financial & quantitative theory and risk management.

For retail / private traders/investors he runs a managed account fund through The Stop Hunter.

In 2016, Stephen published his first book: #Trading Thought Mind Medicine for Traders & Investors.
