Setups Continued

Base breakout
Figure 22 8 Month Base Breakout Daily



Base breakouts are just what they suggest. A stock builds a base, the duration of that base can be anywhere from hours to months or even years. The longer the base and more powerful the break when it leaves that base often equates to the duration and size of the run.

Range break

Range breaks are when a stock trades within a range of price and eventually take out that range. As it trades within a range it builds energy until eventually the bulls or bears cause a significant move. Unfortunately range breaks have a tendency to give false breakouts quite often since everyone knows the range and it can easily be manipulated. Trading range breaks requires patience and is best played once the break is confirmed with high volume. If the stock falls back into the range it’s most likely a failed range break.
    
Flat top Breakout

Flat top breakouts are again just what the name suggests. The stock trades in a range for a period of time. The price of the stock continues to test a specific price. Think of this setup as a game of PONG. For you old timers like me that shouldn’t be a problem, for you youngsters Pong was a game where you had a ball that you would bounce up into a brick wall and with each hit you would weaken the wall until eventually you break through to the other side. Flat top breakouts are the same concept each time the price hits the wall it weakens. The more hits the wall takes and the longer the duration it takes to break through the more powerful the break becomes. Just like in the game pong the more hits the wall would take the faster the ball would move and the energy would continue to build until its eventual release.
