Cheat Sheet
Please note that although these price patterns were documented by Ivan Krastins as part of his own trading systems, the de nitions we
use differ in minor ways from the originals. The reasons we have changed de nitions from the original are for simplicity, clarity, and
ease of automation.

Trend Trade Buy mode
1. Start with a spike low.
2. Take the next spike high and mark it.
3. Take the next spike high after the spike high in 2. That spike low must be higher than the previous spike low (in 1)
4. Trend trade buy mode is on when price passes above the spike high in 2 (this is the point of recognition in the diagram)
5. Continue marking the next spike low, then the next spike high after that low, then the next spike low after that high, then the next
spike high after that low, etc etc. As long as each successive spike high is higher than the spike high before it, and each
successive spike low is higher than the spike low before it then trend trade buy is on.
6. When a spike high or low breaks the run of higher spike highs and spike lows, the mode is off
7. When in “trend trade buy” mode ANY hammer candle is a setup.
Example:
(http://evilspeculator.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/tt-buy-example.png)
While trend trade mode is ON, EVERY hammer candle is a buy setup. Some people argue that while trend trade buy mode is on shorts
should not be taken.

next spike high after that low, etc etc. as long as each successive spike low is lower than the spike low before it, and each
successive spike high is lower than the spike high before it then trend trade sell is on.
7. When a spike high or low breaks the run of lower spike highs and spike lows, the mode is off
8. While trend trade sell mode is on, every shooting star candle is a sell setup. Some people argue that while trend trade sell mode
