“Saturday Seminars” - The Wycoff Method

In this session, you will gain a comprehension of how mass psychology in action creates the shape of a conceptual framework for technical market analysis. Hank emphasizes an appreciation for the cause and effect linkages among price, volume, time, and sentiment and explains how these factors combine to form stages of accumulation, markup, distribution and markdown. You will have a further sensitivity to the value of trading ranges and divergence and develop an understanding of the critical need for selecting between a trend-following system and a trend-fading system.

This workshop provides you with a unique opportunity to learn the principles of the Wyckoff Method of technical analysis and trading. You will learn to combine the technical tools you already use with an entirely new perspective on market behavior, enhancing both your technical trading skills and your ability to judge critical trading situations. You will learn to concentrate your analysis on three essential factors: tick-volume or volume (the intensity of trading), the relationship between price movement and volume, and the time required for all the movements to run their respective courses. The information derived by using a volume or tick-volume approach can directly influence your day-to-day decision making process. It will enhance your awareness of the market’s real strengths or weaknesses.
