How to Spot Volatility Before It Happens! — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:13Hello everybody. Welcome back to another
- 0:14video. So in today's video I'm going to
- 0:16be explaining the standard deviation
- 0:18squeeze in a very short period. Okay? So
- 0:22I'm going to be using the wave 760
- 0:24minute time frame because I was seeing
- 0:26that currently we are in a squeeze. I'll
- 0:28try to explain the squeeze later on and
- 0:31what it does. So we are in a squeeze so
- 0:33I thought that we should be using this
- 0:35as an example. So first of all, let me
- 0:38explain that where the standard
- 0:39deviation is. So here this part right
- 0:42here is the standard deviation and you
- 0:44need to focus on the dots or even I call
- 0:46this the line right here. This is really
- 0:49important in the standard deviation. And
- 0:51here the golden zone you see is the
- 0:54squeeze. Okay, we'll come to that part
- 0:56later on. So first of all, let's talk
- 0:58about these dots. You see these dots are
- 1:01red in this region right here looking at
- 1:03my cursor. That is because the price is
- 1:06below the vector. Okay? And if the price
- 1:10is above the vector, you're going to see
- 1:11that these dots turn green. Okay, so
- 1:14it's trying to show the overall price
- 1:16action on the standard deviation. Then
- 1:19next up you need to be focusing on the
- 1:21standard deviation squeeze that is the
- 1:23golden zone.
- 1:24The golden zone or the standard
- 1:26deviation squeeze simply tells you that
- 1:29the market is preparing for a volatile
- 1:32move.
- 1:33That's all. Okay, that's all it's trying
- 1:34to show.
- 1:36Right here, the market is in the
- 1:38squeeze. So it's trying to show that
- 1:39okay, we can expect a more volatile move
- 1:44right here. Okay? Same thing right here.
- 1:47Okay? And then the volatile move right
- 1:49here. Okay? Same thing right here. Same
- 1:52thing right here. Okay? So that is all
- 1:56it's trying to show. This is a really
- 1:58good tool for the people who are you
- 2:00know,
- 2:01more comfortable with more volatile
- 2:03markets while trading. Like right here
- 2:06we saw the squeeze. This was a really
- 2:07strong one because you can see that the
- 2:09market expanded really strongly from the
- 2:13squeeze. Right? Looking at these dots.
- 2:15It expanded pretty
- 2:17in a pretty short period of period of
- 2:19time to the middle deviation that is the
- 2:210.8. We'll talk about that later on.
- 2:24Right? So this was a really strong move
- 2:26with the squeeze. Right? That you need
- 2:28to be focusing on. It doesn't happen all
- 2:31of the time but whenever the market is
- 2:33in the squeeze just think that okay, you
- 2:35know, this is my time I need to trade or
- 2:37maybe if you do not trade volatile
- 2:39markets, this is the time you need to
- 2:41stay away from the markets because it's
- 2:43going to give you a more strong or
- 2:44volatile move if that makes sense.
- 2:47Right? Next up we need to be talking
- 2:49about these dots again.
- 2:51Wherever these dots or you know, these
- 2:54this line right here goes flat or forms
- 2:57a reversal
- 2:59one of the two things happen. Either
- 3:01we're going to see a reversal, right? Or
- 3:04we're going to see some sort of
- 3:05consolidation. Why? Because let's say
- 3:08that the market expands from the
- 3:10standard deviation. I'm going to use
- 3:11this example right here. Okay? Market
- 3:13expands from the standard deviation.
- 3:15That means that okay,
- 3:17we saw a bullish squeeze.
- 3:20Right? And the bullish squeeze gave us a
- 3:22strong move to the upside. Of course
- 3:24that move will, you know, go away.
- 3:26Right? It cannot be continuous. Right?
- 3:29So whenever this goes flat or it
- 3:32reverses, it means that okay, the market
- 3:34makers are done with this move right
- 3:37here. So market is going to relax or
- 3:40give us a reversal. And whenever it goes
- 3:42back into the squeeze right here, means
- 3:45that okay, the market is ready for
- 3:48another volatile move. If that makes
- 3:51sense. Right? That is all it's trying to
- 3:53show. Next up we need to be looking at
- 3:55the macro trend. So macro trend green
- 3:58means the market is overall bullish and
- 4:01the macro trend red means the market is
- 4:04overall bearish. Okay? And the when for
- 4:07example, let's say right now the market
- 4:09is overall green. Right? Bullish with
- 4:12the macro trend. So it does indicate
- 4:14that there's a higher chance that we do
- 4:17see a bullish squeeze. But right now we
- 4:20are in the squeeze and let's see that
- 4:22how the squeeze plays out. And one last
- 4:25thing I need to be talking about is the
- 4:26KNM signal. A lot of people, you know,
- 4:29are looking at the KNM signals and some
- 4:31of them are confused at what it does.
- 4:34In simple words,
- 4:36M means bearish.
- 4:38K means bullish. Okay?
- 4:41Now M signal forms whenever there's a
- 4:44bearish transition below the pivot.
- 4:47Okay? And the K signal forms whenever
- 4:50there's a bullish transition above the
- 4:53pivot. I will mark it on this chart
- 4:56right here. Okay? For the
- 4:58uh for a better explanation and then you
- 5:01guys can look at it. Okay? I need you
- 5:03guys to do your own homework on this
- 5:06stuff because me just explaining to you
- 5:09right now is not going to make a lot of
- 5:11sense until you go to your own charts
- 5:13and look at different stuff. Right? I
- 5:15also saw a squeeze on the ES on wave
- 5:18three daily and I'll try to show it
- 5:20right now.
- 5:21So on the wave three daily we also have
- 5:23a squeeze. Now I will be showing the
- 5:26after effect of this squeeze right here
- 5:28that how it played out so that you know,
- 5:30you guys can actually see it playing out
- 5:33live in this video. So let's go to the
- 5:35after part.
- 5:38Hi. So let's take a look at the after
- 5:39result of the squeeze we were looking at
- 5:41on the wave three daily on ES and QQQ
- 5:44wave 760 minute. So here we have ES wave
- 5:47three daily. We saw the squeeze right
- 5:49here on the M signal and then the
- 5:51squeeze ended right here around the peak
- 5:53of 0.6 on the standard deviation or the
- 5:5550% band on our
- 5:58chart right here. So this wasn't a great
- 6:01squeeze because sometimes we do see
- 6:03moves like from the squeeze straight up
- 6:06to the 1.2 to 1.4 region. Now those
- 6:09require like these big candles or you
- 6:11know, a larger move.
- 6:13For example, from this 80% band or like
- 6:15transition to straight up like 10% band.
- 6:18Now that is a strong volatile move.
- 6:20Right? So let's take a look at QQQ wave
- 6:24760 minute that we discussed in the
- 6:27explanation.
- 6:29So right here we saw the squeeze. Right?
- 6:31On this transition right here, M signal.
- 6:34Now from the M signal the sig the
- 6:36squeeze ended right here at the average
- 6:39percent band. Now this was a decent move
- 6:42because we are looking at the wave 760
- 6:44minute.
- 6:46So I'm not expecting like great move
- 6:48that we saw comparatively on the ES
- 6:51daily. So I would consider this a decent
- 6:53squeeze. Now this squeeze also ended at
- 6:56the 0.5 point. Now this wasn't like a
- 6:58strong squeeze move. Right? Now if I
- 7:02compare to another squeeze move like a
- 7:04strong one on this chart, it's like
- 7:06right here. Right from this to right
- 7:09here. Basically, this move happened in a
- 7:12very short period of time. Right? Now if
- 7:15we compare to this move right here, this
- 7:17wasn't that strong. Right? And this was
- 7:21quite stronger. That is why we saw that
- 7:23the dots are actually going up in a
- 7:26really fast manner compared to the dots
- 7:29going up right here. Right? You can see
- 7:31the difference.
- 7:32So here we saw the squeeze on both of
- 7:35these time frames. Now I hope that it
- 7:37makes sense to you guys that how the
- 7:39squeeze works out. Now I want you guys
- 7:42to go on your charts if you have the
- 7:44access and take a look at the squeeze
- 7:46and how it performs on different time
- 7:48frames and how it can match your
- 7:50strategy that you are currently using
- 7:52with fractals. So have a great day
- 7:54ahead.
