There are 1000s of indicators in Technical Analysis...

But you need to MASTER ONLY ONE🎯to win in markets...

I selected 'Commodity channel index' (CCI) as my PRIMARY INDICATOR & all my scanners are a variation of this...

MULTI TIMEFRAME POSITIONAL STRATEGY using CCI...🧵

1⃣ CCI Basics

• CCI > 100 = Bullish and overbought
• CCI < -100 = Bearish and oversold
2⃣Entry criteria

• CCI(34) on Weekly crossed above 100
• CCI(34) on Daily >100
• Entry: above weekly swing high
• Stoploss: Recent swing low on daily chart
3⃣Exit criteria

• CCI(34) on Daily < -100
• Holding period: Few days to many months

Pyramiding your winners should be considered to make your winners big.

Separate post on this to follow.
4⃣ Why trade on a multi-timeframe?

• This is a top-down approach where we observe the larger trend of the stock before we take entries on the smaller or medium trend of the stock. This concept can be compared to tides in the sea.
5⃣ A larger wave in the sea will overpower the smaller waves, no matter what, simply because the larger waves have more velocity and force.

In a similar way, a stock trending in the larger TF will overpower the smaller TF trend and will eventually take the stock price higher.
6⃣ While trading this strategy we presume this will work & buy stock in the shorter TF just when the larger TF is showing bullishness. This ensures we are in the right direction.

In case the stock reverses, we exit based on the stop loss or based on the exit criteria.
7⃣ Just to be clear, this is NOT a holy grail strategy but helps one catch the shorter/medium trend very well.

You WILL have losing trades.

So, it is important to consider proper position sizing and assess your risk before entry.

Let's look at some examples 👇
8⃣ Ex: SBIN & Reliance

The larger trend turned bullish. So, we enter just above the weekly high and hold on until the stop hits or exit criteria is met.

Note that by buying just above the high, you skip that initial short term downtrend or you might even skip many bad trades
9⃣ Ex: Axis Bank and Maruti.

Once CCI daily goes below -100, you need to exit the next day at open. You never know how deep the stock can correct.
🔟Ex: Bajaj Finance and HDFC Bank - Good Profits.

You never know much a stock can rally. So, identify a strategy that can keep you in the trade for as long as possible.

Remember, 80% of your profits come from such 20% of trades. Such trades make up your PnL in the long run.

Channel reversals are the best price points to buy a stock or add more.

So the cryptocurrency industry has basically two products, one which is relatively benign and doesn't have product market fit, and one which is malignant and does. The industry has a weird superposition of understanding this fact and (strategically?) not understanding it.


The benign product is sovereign programmable money, which is historically a niche interest of folks with a relatively clustered set of beliefs about the state, the literary merit of Snow Crash, and the utility of gold to the modern economy.

This product has narrow appeal and, accordingly, is worth about as much as everything else on a 486 sitting in someone's basement is worth.

The other product is investment scams, which have approximately the best product market fit of anything produced by humans. In no age, in no country, in no city, at no level of sophistication do people consistently say "Actually I would prefer not to get money for nothing."

This product needs the exchanges like they need oxygen, because the value of it is directly tied to having payment rails to move real currency into the ecosystem and some jurisdictional and regulatory legerdemain to stay one step ahead of the banhammer.
