Pocketpivotanalysis

Pocket Pivots : USDJPYOne of the many continuation plays we can implement in a rally is pocket pivots. Pocket pivots is the current up day’s volume must be larger than any of the down volume days in the prior 10 days. Ideally pocket pivots occur 'before' the traditional buy signal to occur such as breakouts. In the chart examples, the first one is pocket pivot occur confluenced a bullish reversal pattern I personally call railroad due to its similar-ish size of the candlestick's body. Thats an ENTRY; signal The second example is pocket pivot occur inside a flat base. ENTRY; is at the open of the next day's candle, before the actual breakout of the base.

Buying before the breakout : Pocket PivotABC is a company with good accelarated Earnings and good margins. The company is identified as tradeable via fundamental analysis/funadmental screening. Now whats left is when to get it. I wait for the price to break the 100-200 ema ribbon and make some kind of base/price structure around the area and see if there is a pocket pivot around/inside the base. Preferably before a breakout of the base (if a breakout candle coincide with a pocket pivot, thats okay too)
