TREND TEMPLATE CRITERIA by the Legend @markminervini

A stock must meet all eight criteria to be deemed in a confirmed stage 2 uptrend.

1. Stock price is above both the 150-day (30-week) and the 200-day (40week) moving average price lines.

A Thread🧵

This is how new sector/stock emerges in a bear market. Even though the smallcap/midcap stocks beaten down hardly, still it held up 21 EMA nicely. Whenever the stock tested 21EMA it rebound like the action of the spring.

Not a buy recommendation.

Pullbacks buying strategy after a breakout with example

• 1st pullback is a great buy.
• 2nd pullback is still fine
• 3rd pullback should be avoided.
• 4th pullback never buy it.

#Pocketpivot and it's characteristics:-

or consolidation and emerges into new high price ground.
Institutional investors do not like to buy breakouts to new highs. In fact, they generally prefer to buy stocks off of their lows, and sometimes the lower the better. 2/11

Of course, if we think about this for just one second we realize that it is the institutions that create the bottoms of chart bases, including the volume/accumulation clues along the lows of a constructive base formation. If investors had bought the breakout to new highs, 3/11

the sharp pullback below the 10-day moving average might have caused them to be shaken out of their position.However, buying on the pocket pivot buy
point before the stock rose would have given investors buying the stock at good point. 4/11

A pocket pivot points generally occurs within the stocks chart base, before the standard new-high breakout buy point appears. Pocket pivots can also appear as continuation buy point as stock move higher after launching out of a chart base or consolidation. 5/11

Nothing will work in this market. Protecting capital is all that needs to be done.#SmallCap index still seems weak. I'm not seeing any signs of reversing. More declines are expected from current levels. Double top target-8900

I have earlier shared some setups/strategies for Intraday. One of them was ORB (opening range breakout) setup.. but I still get DM about this. So here's a thread about how to find ORB stocks: (1/12)

Stocks that are in consolidation or on the verge of a breakout and has already given a breakout from consolidation - both category stocks should be in your watchlist.

Now the question is.. with so many stocks around, how one must filter and check? (2/12)

I mostly trade in F&O stocks in Intraday - it has 188 stocks after new addition and can be filtered as per sector rotation.
Find the sector or theme with good recent performance and keep its stocks in watchlist. I keep an alert for breakout price when I see a good chart. (3/12)

Another way to filter stocks is to keep an eye on the new additions in the F&O and the stocks that are in news.

Not every stock gives a move of 7-8%. Look for stock that move 7-8% in one go when they give a breakout (Stocks unlike ITC that moves once in a year). (4/12)

There are a few stocks that are tailor made for ORB. And those stocks should be in your watchlist.
IRCTC, Mindtree, Bajaj Twins, IEX, TataElxsi, Naukri, Coforge are some great examples. Rest you can observe and add.
