Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable
for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The high degree
of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign
exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience,
and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of
your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford
to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading,
and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.

The 2-Day On-Site
It is my experience that Fundamental
Announcements exist to fulfill the Fibonacci
sequence more quickly.
The Fibonacci numbers and sequence do not
exist to fulfill the Fundamental
Announcements.
Let us review:
Find the correct up A,B,C,D’s. The down trendline
breaks and starts a new uptrend.
8
The 2-Day On-Site
It starts with an A low that moves to a B high. A B High is 2
candles lower to the left and 2 to the right of the B high. It
then retraces inside an A-B boundary which creates a C
low. Then, it begins to rally above the B high and ends by
forming a new D high. The D is when it stops moving,
leaving 2 candles to the left and 2 to the right, both of which
are lower than the D High at or above the corresponding D
extension.
After you adjust your A,B,C,D’s,
your A’s and B’s will never be readjusted.
Only C’s and D’s can be readjusted.
9
The 2-Day On-Site
Once the D is confirmed, you can now move your A,B,C,D’s.
A moves to C. B moves to D and you will never move A and
B again. C goes inside the A-B boundary and can be
adjusted. D goes to the corresponding D extension and can
be adjusted. The D ends where it makes a high of 2 to the left
and 2 to the right (at the D or beyond the D, but not before the
D).
Once the D is fulfilled, you can then readjust all of your A,B,C,D’s all over again.

of your A,B,C,D’s all over again.
How the Downtrend Price Swing and the
Extension Form
•
It starts with an A high that moves to a B low. It then retraces inside an A-B boundary,
creating a C high. Then, it begins to dip below the B low and ends by forming a new
low at the D extension. The D extension will be at the corresponding Fibonacci
extension number.

It starts with an A high that moves to a B low.
The B low is the first 2 candles to the left and
right that are above the B low. Then, it retraces
back inside an A-B boundary creating a C high. It
begins to dip below the B low and ends by
forming a new D low. There are 2 candles to the
left and 2 to the right at or below the
corresponding D extension, but not before.
Only C’s and D’s can be readjusted.
The 2-Day On-Site
After you adjust your A,B,C,D’s,
the A’s and B’s will never be readjusted.
Once the D is confirmed, you can move your A,B,C,D’s. A moves to C.
B moves to D. You will never move A and B again. C goes inside the
A-B boundary and can be adjusted. D goes to the corresponding D
extension and can be adjusted, but it ends where it finally makes a low
2 to the left and 2 to the right of the corresponding D extension or
beyond the D, but not before the corresponding D extension.

There are primarily 3 uptrend lines formed in
an uptrend:
- An inner trendline
- An outer trendline
- A long-term trendline
Draw the uptrend lines across the lows of
support, connecting A’s with C’s after new
highs have been formed.

In an uptrend, trendlines are future locations the
market may hit and then bounce up from in the
future. They are future potential levels of support.
The market is currently making
lower lows and lower highs.
 The uptrend line needs to go
beneath the low and through the
candles at the top.
 The uptrend line has been broken.

The line must be drawn across the wick
lows as long as the market is making

Trader’s Tips
• Keep up with your A,B,C,D’s and sub-a,b,c,d’s.
• Keep in mind that the market moves at different speeds
and creates aggressive trendlines as well as subtle
trendlines between 20 and 80 degrees.
• On retracements, use a 45-degree counter trendline and
use a 30-degree trendline on extensions.
• From experience, when the market breaks the 30-degree
trendline, it has a 90% chance of going the other way
during the active zone.
• When you enter into buying or selling the C, keep up
with the aggressive trendline and immediately draw a 30degree extension trendline.
Selling Tweezer Tops after a retracement
The market needs to go
your way or you need to
get out.
 When 30-degree
extension trendlines are
broken, you need to think
of reversing your position
or getting out because
you can get in trouble in a
real hurry if you stay in.

I have identified 5 bullish and 5 bearish patterns you need to learn.
Even though these patterns offer great trading signals, it is very important to
note that should you trade these signals on their own merit, they may not be
as strong and you’ll have more of a chance of success if you trade the
bearish formations in a downtrend and bullish formations in an uptrend with
the market bouncing at trendlines. Fibonacci’s past support becomes future
resistance or past resistance becoming future support.
The candlestick formations you want to trade are when the market is
retracing to a deep C.
Trading is a game of probabilities and in order to put the percentages of
success in your favor, you should compile more than one piece of evidence
(probability) that the market will potentially move in the opposite direction
inside the A-B boundary and move in the extension direction right after at
the price level you enter.
In other words, success is increased if you have more than one educated
reason to enter the market. When you have more than one good reason, it
is what we call a convergence. Examples of convergence are on the
following slides.

•
Wait until the candle of certainty closes before you enter the market.
Enter at the opening of the next candle if your rules of equity
management allow it.
If scalping, place your protective stop loss 10 pips beyond the
formation.
Figure out the total risk of the trade and place your limit exit orders
for profit on a one-to-one risk-reward ratio for scalping.
If you are trading a C – D extension of the latest A,B,C,D swing,
place your protective stop loss order 10 pips beyond the A of the A-B
swing and your limit 10 pips in front of the corresponding D
extension.

Important Rules
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Once again, it’s imperative to wait until the candle that forms the candlestick formation has
closed before you enter at the opening of the next candle.
It is important to note that all candlestick formations will be tested over 50% of the time. In
other words, on bullish candlestick formations, the bears will attempt to drive prices lower
to see if there is any interest in more sellers coming into the market.
In bearish candlestick formations, the bulls will attempt to drive prices higher to see if there
is any interest in more buyers coming into the market. Both the bulls and the bears put up
one last fight to try and overrule the new pattern.
The strength of the pattern will depend on this test and it will normally be clear after 2 or 3
periods whether the test will hold or fail.
You should always be risk-orientated. Before you enter the market at the opening of the
next candle, look at your risk factor to see if it is in line with your equity management rules.
If your protective stop loss order needs to be too far away from your entry, you can wait for
the potential test of the candlestick pattern and enter the market when prices are closer to
the low or high of the candlestick formation during the test.
Once again, your protective stops when scalping will be 10 pips beyond the candlestick
formation, which will be new levels of support or resistance if the pattern holds.
If you are going from C to D, figure out the total risk of the trade and place your protective
stops beyond the A if your equity management allows and your limit exit orders for profit 10
pips before it hits the corresponding D extension or according to the options in the Trader’s
Checklist.

Trade in the direction of the current trend after the market retraces
back into an A-B or sub a-b boundary, forming a candlestick
formation.
Many times, a candlestick formation will appear at the end of a trend
on a smaller time frame. This is a trendline bounce in the opposite
direction on a larger time frame.
Do not trade candlestick formations in consolidation.
All protective stop loss orders must be 15 pips above the candlestick
formation when selling due to the bid-ask spread and 10 pips below
the candlestick formations when buying as most charts are bid
charts.
If your stop order is too far away from the entry point and does not
meet your equity management requirements -- PASS ON THE
TRADE!
Find another trade that will meet your equity management rules.

Trader’s Tips
Trading Candlestick Formations
• Trading Japanese Candlestick formations offers
good risk-to-reward opportunities for traders.
• Candlestick formations are potential turning points.
When traded in the direction of the trend, they have
a high percentage chance of paying off.
• They lend themselves to what is called great equity
management.
• You execute a trade with what is called a tight stop.
That means you are risking very little financially.
• If the trade doesn’t work out, your loss is small.
• Keep your losses small and let your profits run.

It is recommended to risk no more than 2.5% of your trading account
balance.
A risk of 5% is considered over-trading your account.
Stops and limits are based on knowing your A,B,C,D’s.
Open a demo account and practice, practice, practice until you understand
and feel comfortable trading the strategies.
Start off with trading mini or micro lots. Build confidence in your strategies
on mini or micro lots. Make your mistakes on mini and micro lots.
Only risk 2.5% of your account in any given trade.
Do not over-trade your account.
When increasing your lot sizes, go from 1 mini lot to 2 mini lots and do not
regress. Then go from 2 to 3 and never regress, etc.
Do not go from 1 mini lot to 5 mini lots or 1 mini lot to 10 mini lots. That is a
recipe for disaster.
After you have mastered a successful technique, increase your lots per
currency and never regress on your lots.

Trading Tips
•
•
•
•
•
•
Find and mark your A,B,C,D’s , sub-a,b,c,d’s and Fibonacci’s on the daily
chart, 2 hour chart, 1 hour chart, and 15 minute chart and readjust them as
needed.
Keep in mind the daily trading ranges of each currency.
When you enter the market, ask yourself, “Am I entering during the active
zone or the dead zone?” The market will move faster in the active zone than
in the dead zone.
When you enter the market, answer the question, “Am I getting involved in
an extension or a retracement?”
Don’t forget that the market moves more pips in less time on an extension
and fewer pips in more time on a retracement.
All these strategies can be used on any time frame. Remember the larger
the time frame, the larger the swings.

Trader’s Tips

•
Keep in mind that the market moves at different speeds and creates
aggressive trendlines and subtle trendlines of 20 to 80 degrees.
On retracements, use a 45-degree counter trendline. On extensions,
use a 30-degree trendline during the active zone.
From experience, when the market breaks the 30-degree trendline
during the active zone, it has a 90% chance of going the opposite
direction.
When you enter the market at a C or sub-c extension, draw 2 trendlines
(an aggressive trendline and a 30-degree extension trendline) in the
direction of the trend.
When you enter the market, you will immediately be in the red due to
the bid and ask spreads.

Traders Checklist - Strategy #1
 1. Compress the chart and see if you are in an uptrend or downtrend.
 2. Find and mark your A,B,C,D’s , sub-a,b,c,d’s and Fibonacci’s on the daily chart, 2
hour chart, 1 hour chart and 15 minute chart and keep up with them when they need
to be adjusted .
 3. Figure out if you will be entering on a retracement or extension of the recent A,B,C,D.
 4. Look at the time and figure out if you are in the active zone or dead zone. You will be
more effective during the active zone
 5. Count the number of pips your currency has already moved for the day from low to
high or high to low in its daily trading range to make sure you are not entering at the
end of the daily trading range.
 6. Using the FXTURBO, when the blue line crosses the aqua line from the south to the
north and you have 75% of a bullish candle above the blue line, that is a buy signal.
Enter the market.
 7. Using the FXTURBO, when the blue line crosses the aqua line from the north to the
south and you have 75% of a bearish candle below the blue line that is a sell signal.
Enter the market.
 8. Draw your counter trendlines on the retracements once a candlestick formation
appears in the direction of the trend. If you are going long, you may want to wait until
you have 75% of a bullish candle above the blue line. If you are going short you may
want to wait until you have 75% of a bearish candle below the blue line and counter
trendlines have been broken.
 9. If you are entering on an extension, draw a 30-degree angle trendline after you’ve
entered. If you are entering on a retracement, draw a 45-degree angle
retracement line.
 10. Place stops either beyond the candlestick formation or beyond the A on each
currency. As a safeguard monitor the 30-degree trendline, the aggressive trendline
and the blue and aqua lines in FXTURBO.
 11. Exits can be based on several different exit strategies:
 1. Exit at the D extension on the time frame you are trading.
 2. Exit if you are in the black and the candles start to cross the blue line.
 3. Exit if it breaks the aggressive hand-drawn trendline and you are in the
black.
 4. Exit if it starts to break the 30-degree trendline.
 5. Exit near the end of the daily trading range.
 6. Exit when the blue line crosses the aqua line again on the FXTURBO.

getting in at the end of the daily trading range.
 7. On the 2 hour, 1 hour, 30 minute or 15 minute charts (and preferably during the
active zone) look for bearish candlestick formations if the candles are below the

formations for scalping and beyond the A for day trading which enables the market to
wave.

Trader’s Checklist - Strategy #3
Strategy #3 can be a stand alone strategy or a combination of the previous 2 strategies. You will see
as I start to explain.
 1. On the 2 hour, 1 hour, 30 minute or 15 minute charts, the bears live below the
aqua auto trendline and bulls live above the auto aqua trendline.
 2. Compress the chart and see if you are in an uptrend or downtrend.
 3. Find your current A/B boundary, your A,B,C,D’s, sub a,b,c,d’s and draw your
Fibonacci’s. The 60 and 120 minute charts work best with this strategy.
 4. Figure out if the market is retracing or moving on an extension.
 5. Look at the time and figure out if you are in the active zone or dead zone.
 6. Count the number of pips your currency has already moved for the day from low
to high or high to low in its daily trading range to avoid getting in at the end of the
daily trading range.
 7. During the active zone, look for bearish candlestick formations if the candles are
below the aqua automated trendline and bullish candlestick formations if the
candles are above the aqua automated trendline.
 8. Look at the velocity fuel gauge to see if it is entering or getting ready to exit
either the buy or sell zones.
 9. If the velocity fuel gauge is either entering or exiting the sell zone, the trend
should be down and the market should be retracing back up. You should be
looking for the market to be forming a bearish candlestick formation and
breaking the counter downward trendline when the velocity fuel gauge is leaving
the sell zone.
 10. If the velocity fuel gauge is either entering or exiting the buy zone, the trend
should be up and the market should be retracing back down. You should be
looking for the market to be forming a bullish candlestick formation and breaking
the counter uptrend line when the velocity fuel gauge is leaving the buy zone.
 11. Once the market begins to leave the buy or sell zone and the counter trendline
begins to break, look for corresponding candlestick formations appearing to
support your decision to enter the market. Enter your currency in the direction
of the trend and when a candlestick gets on the north side of the blue line for
buying and south of the blue line for selling.
 12. You should be entering on an extension. After you enter the market, draw a 30degree trendline and keep up with an aggressive trendline. If you are entering on
a retracement, draw a 45-degree retracement line.
 13. Place stops 10 pips beyond bid/ask spreads on each currency beyond the
candlestick formations for scalping and beyond the A if you are trading the
A,B,C,D’s.
 14. Exits can be based on several different exit strategies.
 1. Exit at the D extension on the time frame you are trading.
 2. Exit if you are in the black and the candles start to cross the blue line.
 3. Exit if it breaks the aggressive hand-drawn trendline and you are in the black.
 4. Exit if it starts to break the 30-degree trendline.
 5. Exit near the end of the daily trading range.
 6. Exit when the blue line crosses the aqua line again.
