Swing Trading with Market Timing intelligence
The most important element of a successful swing trading approach is market timing of both entry and exits. In this educational newsletter, you will learn to predict, identify, and trade short-term swing trading opportunities using a unique swing trading “market timing intelligence†methodology. Veteran futures trader and best-selling author John Crane combines his highly acclaimed “Action/Reaction†market timing methods with a selective set of Elliott Wave and Fibonacci principles to analyze the market action and project future market swings.
Swing trading and Reversal dates
Every good trading signal needs three key elements to be considered a successful swing-trading signal, Time, Price and Pattern. When these three come together, great things can happen. If you can improve your timing or price entry, it can enhance any trading method. That is what the Reversal Dates can do for you. They will identify when the market should react, and at what price level the market needs to be for this to happen. They will even tell you what the market has to do to confirm the trade. The first thing I do is, identify Time.
TIME
The Reversal Date Indicator consists of three parts. The first is Time. This is identified by the projected Reversal date and will indicate which markets are ready to react and when the reaction should occur. The most common misconception about the Reversal dates is the idea that the market must reverse on every signal date, which is not true. Instead, the Reversal Date itself helps to identify the market’s reaction. A high percentage of the time, the market will reverse the current trend, but not always. A smaller percentage of the time, the market will form a “continuation pattern,†indicating the market will likely continue in the same direction as the prevailing trend. Often this will occur during a consolidation or after a very small correction.
PRICE
Once the Reversal date has been identified, the next thing to do is monitor the price. If the market is making a new high/low, or if it is trading inside a buy/sell window, then the second component of a trade signal is in place. You now have Time and Price working together. For most traders, that will be enough, but the Reversal Date Indicator takes it one step further.
PATTERN
After extensive research into price patterns, I have identified specific price patterns, which occur during reversal timing. These patterns can be used to confirm the market reversals or market continuations. When and only when, these three components are all working together, will there be a swing trade signal generated.

Swing Trade Strategies – Learn to read between the lines. [chart]
Dr. Alan Andrews stated that when a median line (the white center line) is drawn, from the most recent swings, the price should return to the medain line 80% of the time. This median line can be used as a target objective where the market will often form a new pivot. October Cattle first tested the median line  on July 21 when it traded to a high of 95.02. After a second test, on the following day, Cattle reversed, forming a high pivot and dropped to the 20-day EMA, trading as low as 93.25 on July 29. So far, the market had been following price behavior described by Dr. Alan Andrews.
He also stated that when a price returns to the median line the price will often form several small swings around the median line where it will touch or cross the line more than once before moving on. October Cattle tested the median line for the second time on August 2 and crossed above the line on August 4, only to back off and drop below the line on August 10. So far, so good. The market is behaving according to the plan. But, this is where it gets interesting.  Each time Cattle crossed above the ascending median line, the market would pull back and close near the median. It was not until August 18 when Cattle posted a strong close with good separation from the median line. This was another  "market tell" that Cattle are ready to resume the upward trend with a new target objective at the upper parallel line. Remember, price will continue to move towards the nearest line 80% of the line. In this case the upper parallel line is the new objective.
Understanding market behavior can and will alert you to trading opportunities and allow you to be aware if the market is behaving correctly so you can take advantage of this behavior. It is all between the lines. Learn more about using 'action-reaction" lines and swing trading strategies at www.tradersnetwork.com.

Swing trading software – How will does “action-reaction” tell us about the next move in the euro?
The June Eurocurrency posted pivot highs of the April 15 and May 3rd reversal swing dates. Both dates marked the end of the corrective bounce and triggered a bearish reversal, followed by a lower market. The euro also posted a 570 point rally, during the two session following the May 6th reversal date. Since then, the euro has dropped to a new low and reached the up-sloping reaction line target objective,on the May 19th reversal date. The market has completed a full cycle, with time and price coming together on May 19th. The euro rebounded off the reaction line suggesting the downward pressure may be over soon and could set up a possible bullish reversal pattern. For undated trade signals check out the TMV Swing Trade report.
Swing trading software – How will Soybeans react after reaching projected target?
Twenty days after posting a high near the April 21st reversal date, July Soybeans reached the up-sloping reaction target line. The daily low of $9.31 tested the reaction line before finding support and rebounding to unchanged. This completes the five-wave cycle as the Soybeans reach the target objective–projected two weeks in advance–on the projected reversal date. While the long-term trend is still bearish, the short-term cycle suggests a possible corrective rebound from this level. I’ll have current updates in the TMV Swing Trade report.
Swing Trading Software for Trading Currencies.
Looking for a trading software program to help you trade the volatile currency markets? You may want to consider the RT Swing Trader. The program signals are pattern based so that it uses the markets own price action to identify “sweet spots†where the markets are building energy inside a trend that precede explosive market moves. Once the signal has been triggered the program will make time and price projection using the unique “action-reaction†theory to project price target objectives as well as the duration of the trade. Intelligent and dynamic protective stops are automatically adjusted based off market direction, price range and momentum, therefore, protective stops are determined by actual market conditions and are not arbitrary. The program can adjust to market conditions because the algorithms are based on timeless and universal fundamental principles of the market, therefore it can work under any market conditions and or any timeframe. Check out the performance of four of the RT Swing Trader portfolios at www.rtswingtrader.com and sign up for a free 30- day trial so you can use it for yourself.
