TOP Trend Breakout Levels with Trade Setups

TOP Trend Breakout Levels can be used to trade an underlying trend in any market. When combined with short-term trade setups, traders can enter markets with short-term setups and then participate in the trend by allowing the TOP Trend Breakout Levels to manage their trend position. The following chart provides a good example of this type of strategy.

In the daily Emini S&P futures chart above, you can see how the Hammer Candlestick Pattern can be used to strategically enter the longer-term uptrend defined by the TOP Trend Breakout Levels. This means that you don’t necessarily have to enter a trend when the TOP Trend Breakout Levels generates a trade signal – you can use a shorter-term strategy to enter a longer-term trend and potentially pyramid on your long position.

It is important to note that not every TOP Trend Breakout Levels signal will lead to a large price move or profits. In fact, market trends are the exception rather than the rule. This means that trend strategies will generate false signals if a market is trading in a choppy, sideways environment. However, when trends do unfold in the markets, they can offer exceptional profit opportunities.

Using a Pyramid Strategy with TOP Trend Breakout Levels

The TOP Trend Breakout Levels can be used with a pyramid trading logic. The TOP Trend Breakout Levels can be used to identify a primary trend and a pyramid strategy can be used to generate an entry signal or pyramid signals to add to an existing position.

In the daily TSLA chart above, the TOP Trend Breakout Levels identified the long-term trend and a short-term buy entry pyramid strategy generated trade signals that could be used to enter into the longer-term trend in TSLA. This strategy, along with many others, represents creative ways to trade long-term trends!
