Here are the letters and what "TRADE-MAP" means to me (first the letters in TRADE):
1. T : Time and space (Fractals); 2. R : Repeating Cycles; 3. A : Advancing Trend; 4. D : Declining Trend; 5. E : Energy in Phase Forces.
Now the letters in MAP:
6. M : Momentum and Velocity; 7. A : Analysis of Structure; 8. P : Price Performance. Don's personal "TRADE-MAP" approach.
The following information (my interpretation of the above chart) is the third repeating cycle (or red traffic light warning) for AAPL. Here are "Don's Top Ten Technicals": 1. The Ichimoku Cloud is FALLING relative to structure to the left. 2. Prices are trading into the cloud from above the cloud. 3. Prices are trading BELOW the thick red Ichimoku Cloud Conversion line. 4. The thick red conversion line is moving LOWER. 5. The thick black line is the Ki jun-Sen baseline of the Ichimoku Cloud and this is HEADING DOWN. 6. The indicator on the top of the page is RSI / Stochastic , and this is heading lower.. 7. The top-side middle indicator is vortex and this is NEGATIVE (red over green). 8. The Top (bar-type) indicator measures the "phase energy", and this is WEAK, and it just completed a ZERO LINE CROSS-OVER to the downside (generally a powerful sell signal). 9. The red fractal arrows (not pictured) are DOWN. 10. Look to the far right on the chart, around $106.93, by the large red arrow. You will notice a yellowish line on the bottom (lips), with black dots above (teeth), and a blue line (jaw) above the black dots. Now, all three are OPENING, correct? This is where I ask you to use your imagination and envision these three items as the "jaws, lips, and teeth of a FEEDING alligator, and the alligator will feed in a down-trend. This is a negative indication and suggests lower prices.
Remember to practice and back-test your ideas. Remember, Don says “If at first you don't succeed then skydiving definitely isn't for you.”
I hope this has been entertaining, helpful, and informative. May all of your trades go well. Don.
