What you'll learn

Key ideas in Mastering the Strat Strategy

  • A '1' bar represents consolidation or indecision
  • Inside bars indicate a temporary equilibrium or 'stalemate'
  • A '2' bar shows a clear winner in one direction
  • Neither buyers nor sellers were strong enough to push price beyond the previous candle's limits
  • A '3' bar represents a broadening of range and a reversal of the previous move
  • The visual definition of the three core candle types
  • The psychological meaning of an Inside Bar (1-Bar)
  • Market movement alternates between consolidation and expansion
  • A 2 bar resolves 1 bar indecision
  • Psychology of an Inside Bar
  • Progression from indecision to breakout
  • Market movement alternates
  • Price breaking a previous candle's high indicates upward momentum
  • The 'in-force' direction is defined by the current break of the previous range
  • Higher timeframes dictate the dominant path of least resistance
  • Multi-timeframe alignment filters out 'noise' from smaller fluctuations
