Market Cycle Technical Analysis
Specs: 22 mins, 14 secs | 10.3 MB
  Trading around market cycle theory is something more day traders are watching and implementing. Once the exclusive realm of long term investors, tracking market cycles on a variety of timeframes, including 10 minute charts, is becoming more commonplace among traders looking for quick moves in a chaotic market. In this interview, full-time trader Nick Santiago talks about how he looks for inside bars and breakout and breakdown patters within multiple timeframes to find trading opportunities each day. He also utilizes "time count" to help determine what an ETF or individual stock will do next. Listen in as we discuss his approach to the markets and why he thinks he was able to call the current downtrend in the market before most other traders.

Nick Santiago: Sure. I became a broker in the mid 90s and I really wasn't a technical trader back then...more, you know, the 90s with a roaring bull market was going on so basically, you could just buy and hold. And then in 2000 when I had my head handed to me a little bit, I started to really get more into the technicals. And over the years, I have developed a few techniques and basically in 2005, I decided to leave the brokerage business and go into the consulting business and trade for myself.
