Suri Duddella joins us in Episode 2 of Smarter Trading to share his knowledge about stock market chart patterns and how he uses automation to find the best available setups.
We discuss the dangers traders can run into of self-identifying chart patterns without the proper understanding of their structure and why Suri thinks you cannot trade charts blindly without taking into consideration what the market is doing.
Key learning points
- Chart patterns are a tool just like any other indicator to assist traders
- It can be dangerous to discretionarily identify chart patterns
- Use mathematics to detect and validate chart patterns
- Master 1 or 2 chart patterns instead of trying to trade them all
- Just because you see a pattern doesn’t mean the market must follow that structure
- Failed chart patterns often times lead to more profitable trades
- You cannot trade patterns profitably without support from market context
- Identifying chart patterns are one of the last parts before placing a trade
