VOLUME IS THE REAL MARKET POWER 🚨

High volume = strong, reliable moves.
Low volume = weak or fake moves.

Always check price + volume together to confirm trend strength.

Smart traders never ignore volume, it reveals the truth behind every candle.

Mark Minervini Setup
How to find stocks

Screen stocks that are within 25% of their 52-week high

Eliminate the following stocks

Eliminate stocks trading below 30

200 MA is rising for at least 3 months

50 MA is above 200 MA

Current price is above 200 SMA and preferably above 50 too

Current price is at least above 100% from 52-week low

The stock should have made a 52-week high at least once every 4 to 6 months

Buying Pattern

Make stock list every week after weekly closing

Use weekly charts

Use Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP)

Use only Price and Volume

Stocks moving up with good volume and then falling with lower volume (consolidating) is good

Use weekly charts

AMO daily charts are good for seeing setting of the stock

Look for volatility contraction in daily charts (just for looking entry)

You don’t need to find new candidates every day, try to add to existing position

Breakouts should happen between 4–8 weeks

Win rate is only 50%, so be prepared

Post Buying Monitoring

Follow up buying

Green days vs Red days

Up Volume vs Down Volume

Tennis Ball Action

Shallow Pullback

VCP Pattern

Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP)

To calculate volatility contraction, divide swing low by swing high then -1 gives the % drop in volatility

There should be ideally 3 VCP

Each time volatility should decrease by ideally 50% (not a hard rule)

Buy when the previous swing high is taken out

With volatility, there is also time contraction which is very similar to price contraction

Take a stock for 2 VCP only if the second contraction is more than 70%

Stop Loss Calculation

Plot 20-period ATR on daily chart

Calculate 2× of the above value

Use this value as your stop loss

Use maximum of 10% as stop loss

📌 Strong setups follow a sequence

• HH & HL confirm trend
• BOS signals momentum shift
• Liquidity sweep traps emotional traders
• Order Block provides institutional entry

Learn the sequence, not just the candles. 📈

ALWAYS WAIT FOR CONFIRMATION

✓ Don’t rush into a trade just because you see a signal

✓ “SELL??” — not yet, wait for clarity

✓ Let the price action confirm your setup

✓ Avoid guessing — “No, Wait!” is often the best move

Patience pays. Wait for confirmation before you click that button.

📌 Trend reversals become clearer when you focus on the basics.

Hammers, Engulfing candles, and Morning Stars at support often reveal shifting momentum.

Keep it simple. Trade with discipline.
