Fair Value Gaps, often referred to in the context of forex and stock trading, are areas on a price chart where there is a significant disparity between the price of an asset and its "fair value." These gaps are typically identified in technical analysis and can represent potential trading opportunities. Here’s a breakdown of the concept:



What is a Bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG)?

In the fast-paced world of trading, understanding supply and demand dynamics is essential for making informed decisions. Two popular patterns used within this framework are the Demand Retest Pattern and the Supply Retest Pattern. These patterns help traders identify key entry and exit points to maximize profit potential. Let’s dive into what makes these patterns significant and how you can leverage them in your trading strategy.

The SST Super Systems Theory of Trading is a concept that draws on the idea of using multiple trading systems or strategies together to create a more robust and reliable trading approach. Instead of relying on a single trading system, traders employing the Super Systems Theory aim to combine different systems that complement each other, with the goal of achieving better risk management and potentially higher returns.

Sniper Webinars

In this webinar, we introduce the Forex Basics and terms you must know for your MT4 account and brokerage firm. We explain what a PIP (Percentage in Price) is, Lot Size, Broker Leverage, Broker Spreads and Order Types, which consist of Market Executions, Buy/Sell Stops and Buy/Sell Limits. Lastly, we explain what a Stop Loss and Trailing Stop Loss are and how to properly set it in a trade so that you are getting the best R:R (Risk:Reward).

In this webinar, we introduce TV which is a great technical charting platform which allows for price action analysis, as well as Support/Resistance, Supply/Demand, Chart Patterns and other various sub/main chart technical indicators that we use

In this webinar, we introduce an explain the characteristics of candlesticks which consist of the Real Body and the Upper and Lower Wicks. These represent the Open, High, Low and Close for the particular timeframe you are trading. We also break down the different types of traders from Long-term investor to Swing Position or Day Trader and finally a Scalper. The candlesticks can further be broken down from a higher timeframe, consisting of Monthly, Weekly, Daily, Hourly, 30 minute, 15 minute, 5 minute and finally 1 minute candlesticks. These are the basic characteristics that are common for all candlesticks

Bullish Price Action Family - Liquidity Series.

In this webinar, we introduce the Bullish family of Candlesticks. We individually breakdown and explain the most bullish to least bullish, consisting of a Bullish Engulfing Candlestick, Hammer, Harami, Pin-Bar, Spinning Top, Inverted Hammer, Doji and finally a Dragonfly Doji. It is very important to learn and identify these different types of candlesticks because they represent bullish price action.

In this webinar, we introduce the Bearish family of Candlesticks. We individually breakdown and explain the most bearish to least bearish consisting of a Bearish Engulfing Candlestick, Shooting Star, Harami, Pin-Bar, Spinning Top, Hanging Man, Doji and finally a Gravestone Doji. It is very important to learn and identify these different types of candlesticks because they represent bearish price action. We concluded these webinar with a question and answer period.

In this webinar, we explain the importance of bearish and bullish volume represented in the Real Bodies of the candlesticks. Also, we discuss how to trade volume with supply/demand, entries/exits and trailing stop lossesg

Types of Trading Accounts, Demo, Prop Firm and Self Funded Account

In this webinar, we discuss the truth of what it takes to be a consistent, profitable trader. Topics discussed were dedication, work ethic, backtesting, studying past profits/losses, proper risk/account management, controlling emotions, and learning the psychology of trading. Trading is not a “get rich quick scheme” and takes countless hours learning this craft.

We introduce and discuss Support and Resistance level and how it relates to price action, where price can consolidate in between these zones or have a potential breakout or breakdown. Support is a demand zone (Buyers) and Resistance is a supply zone (Sellers). We also discuss Uptrends (higher highs and higher lows) and Downtrends (lower highs and lower lows).

In this webinar, we introduce and illustrate how to draw trendlines (bullish/bearish) by connecting points on multiple candlesticks (HH/HL and LH/LL). We also identify areas of Accumulation/Distribution where contracts are being fulfilled and price action is consolidating and establishing Supply (sellers) and Demand (buyers) zones. We will have more webinars on individual topics covered in this session.

Supply/Demand areas, Support/Resistance areas and Accumulation Zones which helps with Price Action

In this webinar, we will introduce and analyze the Bullish and Bearish Continuation Flag Patterns. These patterns consist of a Pole (Bullish/Bearish Candlestick or a Bull/Bear Rally), the Flag represents a period where price action cools off or consolidates (Trap & Gap Strategy) and an eventual breakout Bullish or Bearish depending on the over all trend. These patterns are very important because they allow you to continue in the trade and make more profits by holding entire position or scaling out partial profits.

In this webinar, we introduce and explain Bullish and Bearish Continuation chart patterns. An Ascending Triangle pattern is a bullish continuation pattern which forms a ascending lower support trendline, eventually breaking out bullish and continuing the trend. Descending Triangle is a bearish continuation chart pattern which forms a descending upper trendline, eventually breaking down bearish and continuing the trend. Symmetrical Triangle has both ascending and desending trendlines which can breakout both bullish or bearish.

In this webinar, we introduce the reversal chart patterns, specifically the Double Top/Double Bottom (M&W), Head & Shoulder (Inverse) and Rising/Falling Wedge Patterns. Many candlesticks make visible chart patterns which have a high probability of reversing the existing trend from bullish to bearish or bearish to bullish. It is important to recognize these patterns to add confluence and confirmation to your price action technical trading

Introduction to Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bullish and Bearish RSI Divergence. RSI is a sub-chart technical indicator and is used to identify overbought or oversold conditions as well as the overall strength and momentum of the security you are trading.

Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). MACD is a sub-chart technical indicator used to identify momentum, and trend of a security using 2 moving averages and a histogram chart. Bullish and Bearish Divergence can also be identified using MACD.

Introduction to the Stochastics Oscillator which is a sub-chart momentum indicator which compares a particular closing price to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. It uses 2 moving averages (%K and %D) and also used to identify Overbought/Oversold areas.

In this webinar, we introduce and describe the Bollinger Bands and the Fibonacci Retracements which are main chart technical indicator tools. These tools can be combined with price action to help with confluence and added confirmation. Bollinger Bands or volatility bands are used as a Support/Resistance or Overbought/Oversold indicator represented by 3 lines (upper, lower and signal line). Fibonacci Retracement indicator is a tool to help identify Support/Resistance and the percentage of the retracement or pullback of a particular area you are trading. The 61.8% zone is considered the “Golden Zone”

In this webinar, we introduce areas where price action may consolidate or trade sideways where accumulation and distribution occurs. This is where we Trap the price action and wait for the breakout (bullish) or the breakdown (bearish) which is the Gap. An impulse candle may breakout so it is important to understand implications of these candles (see other webinars) and also the retest with confirmation breakout candle - this is the Sniper Trap & Gap Strategy

In this webinar, we introduce the 2/3 bar patterns, specifically the Piercing Line/Dark Cloud And Morning/Evening Star patterns. We also discuss the Rally based 3 bar continuation patterns

In this webinar, we talk about how retracements or pullbacks are considered to be minor corrections and a temporary pause before continuing in the original direction unless structure is broken and leads to an eventual reversal. Various charting tools can be used to help identify these areas, such as the Fibonacci tool

In this webinar, we introduce the different types of Entries involved in scalping the markets. Also, we need to identify key structural levels and we look to take entries at this points, as they cause imbalance in the markets.

In this webinar, we discuss the importance of a Stop Loss and its placement for different types of trading strategies. Stop losses can be “hard” stop losses that you manually set when taking a trade, or a “mental” stop loss that you manually exit yourself. It is highly recommended that beginner traders ALWAYS use a “hard” stop loss. Identifying key market structure can also aid in the placement of a stop loss

In this webinar, we introduce the 1 minute timeframe scalping method. This is a very fast scalping and requires extreme patience, this timeframe is for more advanced traders due to the indecision and possible false signals. Identify support/resistance zones and also a possible Sniper Trap & Gap for possibly breakouts. Always do your Top Down analysis and always know your 5m, 15m and 1h higher timeframe S/R. 1m timeframe can be used with your 5m trading for confluence

In this webinar, we further discuss and identify the importance of Entries using impulse and retest candlesticks and specific trading zones

In this webinar, we went over Top Down Analysis from Daily to Hourly to 5 minute scalping. We also showed the importance of watching higher timeframe volume coming to critical Daily and Hourly levels where we can set Alerts and drop to lower timeframes for scalping

This webinar introduces top-down analysis from the Daily to lower timeframe trading. We show how to set Support/Resistance, Supply/Demand Zones, and Trendlines and identify Patterns

In this webinar, we break down the Top Down Analysis approach to trading, and introduce Entry points, Exits and Stop Loss placement. In this approach, we use yellow lines to represent Daily Levels, white lines to represent 1H Levels and finally red lines, representing 5m Levels.

In this webinar, we continue with more in-depth Top Down Analysis, leading into Entries, Exits, and Stop Losses. This is an interactive Q&A where members ask questions.

In this webinar, we break down further Top Down Analysis on multiple securities to get a full understanding of this method of charting. We need to understand the overall higher timeframe trend and key areas, leading into lower timeframe scalping.

In this webinar, we backtested the US30 on the 5 min time frame from Tokyo to London and finally New York session and identified areas of consolidation where impulse candles breakout or fakeout. We explained the different methods of trading them and also to identify the retest with confirmation candlesticks. Patience and Discipline is needed while trading areas of consolidation.

How do you Trade Retest & Confirmation Candles

In this webinar, we introduced and identified Liquidity trading areas, which are formed at key Supply/Demand Zones. We look for and identify long rejection wicks in these specific zones reversing the overall trend of the market

In this webinar, we introduce how to identify critical trading sessions highs and lows during Tokyo, London and NY sessions. We also introduce how to setup key Trendlines and the importance of bodies and wicks.

In this webinar, we introduce briefly the psychology of trading and scalping. It is very important to learn and understand how the broader markets work and understand more than just technical and fundamental analysis.

In this webinar, we introduce and discuss the power of compounding 5-10 Pip trading and having high consistency identifying these opportunities on the lower timeframes. The Power of Pips can be very powerful, as the markets present many opportunities for these types of trades. Daily goals can be achieved with a few of these trades per day.

In this webinar, Sniper Admin Adam shares his US30 scalping strategy. He learned how to do Top Down analysis from Ron and Dave and applies his own market open strategy for the NYSE.

In this webinar, we discuss the disadvantages of overtrading and the importance to learn the benefits of trading with a daily routine, goals and controlling your emotions.

In this webinar, we discussed the real life aspect of being a trader and dealing with the psychology of the markets and the way you deal with real emotions involved in being a trader. Every trader has taken a lose in the markets but it is important to learn how to deal with this and learn from our mistakes.

In this webinar, we host a weekly question and answer live session for our Sniper members, where we answer all of your trading related questions so that you will be prepared to study over the weekend, and start the next week off with a better understanding of the markets. These sessions are interactive and in a live environment

In this webinar, we will be discussing on Wicks, how to do your analysis and scalping. These sessions are interactive and in a live environment.

Hedge trading is a risk management strategy used by investors to offset potential losses in an investment by taking an opposite position in a related asset. The goal is to reduce the impact of price fluctuations and protect the value of an asset. This can involve the use of derivatives like options and futures, or other financial instruments. Essentially, hedging acts as a form of insurance to mitigate financial losses.

Zone to Zone Trading is a strategy where traders identify key support and resistance zones on a price chart and make trades as the price moves between these zones. The goal is to capitalize on the predictable price movements and reversals that often occur at these key levels. By entering and exiting trades at these strategic points, traders attempt to maximize profit while managing risk effectively.

Market structure refers to the organization and characteristics of a financial market, including its participants, the products being traded, and the rules and mechanisms that facilitate trading. It encompasses elements such as market trends, support and resistance levels, price patterns, and the overall behavior of buyers and sellers. Understanding market structure helps traders and investors make informed decisions by analyzing the underlying dynamics and trends that influence price movements.

Static Trading Zones are predefined price levels or areas on a chart that remain constant over time, regardless of market movements. These zones are typically established based on historical price data, key support and resistance levels, or significant psychological price points. Traders use static trading zones to identify potential entry and exit points for their trades, as these areas often act as strong barriers where price tends to react, making them useful for planning long-term trading strategies.

The typical errors traders often face in the financial markets. Discover issues like bad risk management, letting emotions drive trades, lack of planning, and overtrading. Our experts will share tips and strategies to help you avoid these mistakes, improve your trading discipline, and boost your overall performance. Whether you're a beginner or experienced trader, this webinar will provide valuable insights to help you trade more successfully.

Trading with drawdown refers to the practice of continuing to trade or invest in the financial markets even when facing a temporary decline in the value of a portfolio from its peak. Drawdowns are a natural part of trading and investing, and traders who can manage drawdowns effectively by staying disciplined, sticking to their trading plan, and implementing proper risk management strategies are more likely to succeed in the long run. Trading with drawdown requires patience and the ability to withstand short-term losses with the confidence that the market will eventually recover.
