Time Horizons and Trading Styles

by Oliver Velez

The following is an excerpt from Oliver Velez's Swing Trading Home Study Course

The Long Term Timeframe

The longterm time frame consist of yearly and monthly charts. A yearly chart is a chart where every bar represents one year of trading. The yearly chart is used primarily for cyclical analysis and sometimes for long-term trading. On the monthly chart every bar represents one month of trading, or approximately twenty trading days. As a swing trader you will review the monthly charts of all stocks in your universe at least once a month. The monthly chart is an excellent chart for longer-term trading, and the swing trader may use monthly charts to help find longer-term trends.

On these charts, the vertical dotted lines represent the years, and the scale along the bottom lets you know that every bar represents one month.

The Intermediate Timeframe

The next timeframe is the intermediate term timeframe, which consists of weekly and daily charts.  The weekly chart is the key chart used by longer-term traders and will be the source of 85% of their plays.  On the weekly chart every bar represents one week or five days worth of trading.

The Daily Timeframe

The daily chart is the home for the swing trader.  Eighty-five percent of the swing trader’s trades will originate from the daily chart.  Every night the swing trader will review his or her universe of stocks through the eyes of the daily chart.

The daily chart is the most common chart you will see if you are not an active trader.  Every bar represents one day’s worth of trading.  The bars and the overall flow of the chart are the same as a weekly chart or a monthly chart.  This is true of all charts, even intraday charts.  I personally do not consider a chart unless it is displayed in Japanese candlesticks.

There are two moving averages on this type of chart, the simple 20-period moving average and the simple 40-period moving average.  These two moving averages are staples that should be on all of your longer-term charts.  They are used as trend-setting tools and help us determine the nature and quality of the trend of any particular stock.  Between the Japanese candlesticks and these two moving averages, we virtually have all of the tools we need for swing trading effectively.

Next, we have the short term timeframe. This timeframe consists of hourly charts and other intraday charts such as the 15-minute and 5-minute charts. In an hourly chart, every bar represents one hour’s worth of trading. The vertical lines represent the breaks from one day to the next. The different trading platforms will show slight differences because of the fact that there are six and a half hours in every trading day. You may opt to start your hourly charts at 9:00 EST or 9:30 EST and, depending upon your choice, there will be a slight difference in the final result. There is no uniform agreement on which is appropriate.

The hourly chart is an incredible chart.  It is versatile in that it can be used for short term hits by swing traders, and it serves as an excellent alternative in choppy environments for one to two day holds.  It is also used widely by the intraday trader to help determine the trend of the current day.

Intraday charts, namely the 5-minute and the 15-minute chart are used primarily by day traders and occasionally to refine management in longer-term trades.

Weekly Market Line in the Sand

by Andy Chambers

The following is an excerpt from Andy Chambers’ Weekly Market Line in the Sand

Every week Andy Chambers publishes his “Weekly Market Line in the Sand” newsletter. The following are two trades from his most recent issue.

The Dow Weekly: A weekly close over 16,485.84 could result in a further advance. The next resistance is seen at 17,100. The key hurdle for the bulls is the December high of 17,901.58. A weekly close below the January low of 15,450.56 could ultimately result in a decline below 14,000.

IWM Monthly: The January close for IWM was the lowest monthly close since the summer of 2013. The close broke horizontal support near 107. A break of significant support often results in a decline toward the next level of support. The next horizontal support on the monthly chart is near 85.00.

There is a substantial risk of loss trading commodities, stocks, bonds and options with or without this or any other advertised product, service or system. Also hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight.
