A primer on Key Earnings Support

Education
NYSE:MCD   McDonald's Corporation
In this chart I'm illustrating a few trading setups that took place in $MCD following each earnings report for a year. The indicators you see in the chart are 'Average True Range' and 'Earnings Price Support' from @timwest's 'Key Hidden Levels' indicator pack.

Every time a company reports earnings, analysts, investors, portfolio managers, traders, you name it...are paying close attention on the data that comes out, and the prices that the stock is trading for at all times, this normally starts one or several days before the report, and lasts for a day or a couple days after the report. The indicator my mentor devised plots a technical level that helps us map how far prices can move, and where to seek low risk trading opportunities on subsequent retests of past reports' levels.

I use the ATR indicator to define the size of the stop losses that I use, which in turns helps me know how many shares to buy or sell when trading with this tool. To use this you need a method to determine the main trend direction, which can be fundamental or technical, or a combination of both. Time@Mode is the one @timwest created, and the one I use, which together with the proprietary indicators from the 'Key Hidden Levels' suite helps me find low risk trades that have a very good batting average.
