The Responsible Trader’s - POV• The Responsible Trader's POV (Point of View).
• These are my notes, my own additional research and studies on the Topic that I posted, and my personal observations and opinions that I am sharing to further enhance our knowledge and understanding.
• Some of these were previously posted on “The Responsible Trader” thread, Stock Market Pilipinas (www.stockmarketpilipinas.com). This is the latest version of previous posts I made.

Quick Review – What is the Proper Term for the Troughs and the Peaks in both Uptrend and Downtrend?
The Peaks are called Resistance. It is the opposite of Support and represents a price level or area where selling pressure overcomes buying pressure.
The Troughs are called Support. This is a level or area on the chart where buying Interest is sufficiently strong to overcome selling pressure

Quick Review – What is Role Reversal when we talk about Resistance and Support?
Role Reversal means Resistance turning to Support and vice versa.Once a resistance or support level is broken, its role is reversed. If the price falls below a support level, that level will become Resistance. If the price rises above a Resistance level, it will often become Support

Module 4 – Reversal and Continuation Patterns• Collectively these are called Chart Patterns and this is where newbies
encounter a lot of difficulty when learning Technical Analysis.
• I will not discuss the lesson in the order presented on the Module. Instead, I will try to add value by sharing my own inputs.
• Warning: What follows next are my own personal ideas and observations.
• If you are not open to exploring new ideas with an open mind, you may close the video and go back to your regular routine. Anyway, the Chart Patterns have been discussed thoroughly in the MCTA Video.
• If you are open to exploring new ideas with an open mind, you may proceed.

Module 4 – Reversal and Continuation Patterns• This is a glimpse of the The Responsible Trading System - A system I
have developed myself. It is not the Holy Grail but it is a system that will help you trade the market without fear and without greed.
• I will start first with the basics to make it easier for everyone to understand.
• Think of Chart Patterns as consolidation. After consolidation, it could result into a Trend Reversal or a Trend Continuation
• The key to learning Chart Patterns is not memorizing but RECOGNITION and UNDERSTANDING. In this connection I would like to share with you
