How I Trade Breakouts
http://youtu.be/6YZ4ORz-UJ0Quote:
My main problem with this is management of risk. Where are you going to put the stop? It's quite reasonable after such an extended run to expect some profit taking. And that, combined with any other short entry orderflow attempting to capture a breakout failure, may just be sufficient to drive price back below the breakout level.
Where will you put your stop? Maybe just below the breakout bar? That's not too bad from a "minimising risk" perspective, but from a technical perspective it's not the greatest. You'll have low risk, at the cost of greater stop outs. The only reasonable "technical" stop is the opposite side of the rectangle pattern, which is not good at all from a risk:reward perspective.
How to use Camarilla Pivots
Warren Buffet once said, Price is what you pay, but Value is what you get. Professional traders understand that we can find great value on our trades by understanding support and resistance. There are multiple ways to identify support and resistance price levels. Many traders turn to pivot points to identify safe price levels to enter and exit our traders. You will be able to find multiple forms of pivot points; however, we believe that camarilla pivots are the best.

How to Trade Breaks of Trendlines
The basic points in the video are as follows:
1. When markets break a trendline after forming three steepening trendlines, a larger reversal may be in the works
2. Look for confluence with candlesticks and horizonal support/resistance levels after a trendline breaks
3. Enter on a re-test of a trendline or a broken support/resistance level
4. When there are 3+ trendlines and the market starts to reverse and break each one, pullbacks will likely be steeper after each subsequent break of a trendline
