Notes

  • Open float is the study of how price reaches above and below the market price.
  • A market structure shift is the first clue the market will likely turn.
  • The intermediate-term high (ITH) is a swing high with two lower swing highs to the left and right, referred to as the short-term highs (STH).
  • The long-term high (LTH) is a swing high with two lower swing highs to the left and right, referred to as the intermediate-term highs (ITH).
  • The intermediate-term low (ITL) is a swing low with two higher swing lows to the left and right, referred to as the short-term lows (STL).
  • The long-term low (LTL) is a swing low with two higher swing lows to the left and right, referred to as the intermediate-term lows (ITL).
  • Michael refers to chart reading through LTH/LTL, ITH/ITL, and STH/STL as an advanced market structure. That’s how he looks at the market.
  • Knowing where the buy and sell orders are will give you a framework for determining future market direction.
  • Doing this study on the daily chart will give you a long-term bias and institutional sponsorship behind your trades.
