This is a study of using TiTTs on the 30 September 2022. The idea is to manage a trade using the ATR Trailing StopLoss or the 55 SMA to handle volatility. The reward is bigger profits when market is trending well. The downside is the potential for lack of smaller and more frequent profits in non-trending market or market with only short trend.
Chart 1: 30 September 2022 – 1 minute chart showing the Entry points and also the possible Exit points
Chart 1 above shows Buy/Sell quadrants. The Buy signal was given when the vertical line of the 8/31 EMA crosses above. There was an immediate pullback with the candles managing to keep the candle close above the 55 SMA and thus remained in the Buy-Buy zone. There was a short upTrend followed by longer period of non-trending volatility with the candles range trending sideways.
Then there was a Squeeze upward followed by another period of sideway trading. Then there was a last Squeeze upward. If we had been managing the Momentum-Trendm we would have exited the trade profitable but a small profit.
The idea is that the Momentum-Trend system for managing trade is a short term technique and result in smaller profits.
If we are using the ATR Trailing-StopLoss for managing the trade, it would have resulted in holding the trade for much longer and a corresponding larger profit. The 55 SMA is also a good line for managing longer term trades.
Buy/Sell Quadrants Explained On the horizontal timescale, the Vertical line represent the 8/21 EMA crossing. When 8 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA, it forms a vertical line and we are now in the Buy zone. The 55 SMA is the other Buy/Sell zone dividing line. Above the 55 SMA is the Buy zone and below the 55 SMA is the Sell zone. Hence we have a quadrant.
Although there are 4 quadrants, only the Upper Right and the Lower Left quadrants are of interest. The Lower Left quadrant is the Sell zone and the Upper Right quadrant is the Buy quadrant.

This is a study of using TiTTs on the 30 September 2022. The new idea is to see the market in terms of Buy/Sell zones in 4 quadrants. We then trade the quadrants using the Momentum/Trend trading system which we name TiTTs. TiTTs stands for Trend-In-Trend trading system. In TiTTs, we look at moving averages from higher timeframes. All moving averages in different timeframes can become Support and Resistance.
Chart 1: 30 September 2022 – 1 minute chart showing the Entry points and also the possible Exit points
Chart 1 above shows Buy/Sell quadrants. On the horizontal timescale, the Vertical line represent the 8/21 EMA crossing. When 8 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA, it forms a vertical line and we are now in the Buy zone. The 55 SMA is the other Buy/Sell zone dividing line. Above the 55 SMA is the Buy zone and below the 55 SMA is the Sell zone. Hence we have a quadrant.
Although there are 4 quadrants, only the Upper Right and the Lower Left quadrants are of interest. The Lower Left quadrant is the Sell zone and the Upper Right quadrant is the Buy quadrant.
In chart 1 above, when market opened at 9:30 am, it was in the Sell zone. As usual at market open, it was volatile and the Candle Close was jerking Up and Down. The Bears and Bulls were battling it out with seemingly no direction. Finally at 9:42, there was a big decisive Bullish candle upward and the direction upward was set.
Chart 2: 30 September 2022 – 1 minute chart showing the Entry points and also the possible Exit points
Chart 2 shows the TiTTs with the Buy/Sell zones. Together with the Momentum/Trend dots, we can trade with high confidence that the trade will work out. Volatility i the enemy of the trader and it is easy to be shaken out of trades by volatility.
Earlier after the market Open and when the direction has been set, the /RTY had to push its way past the moving averages from higher timeframe such as the 3 min and 10 min. Then it was in clear and it still took time to grind its way upward.

This is a study of using TiTTs on the 29 September 2022. When market Opened, the 8/21 EMA crossed downwards to set up the Sell zone. The moving averages were nicely stacked downward and that means there was no moving averages support below. Also, the ATR Trailing StopLoss was sitting nicely above the stacked moving averages. The move downward was quite forceful with very little counter action by Bulls. With the force of conviction, the trade should be held as long as the candles remained RED.
By now, we should be familiar with TiTTs which consists of Buy/Sell zone, Momentum and Trend dots. The rest are moving averages and we like to be a trade with stacked moving averages. This means when we are Long a trade when the moving averages are stacked below the candle close. Likewise when we are Short a trade, the moving averages are stacked above the candle close.
Chart 1: 29 September 2022 – 1 minute chart showing the Entry points and also the possible Exit points
Chart 1 above shows the Entry #1 which was the candle turned RED. The Momentum and Trend dots were White. All the other support dots were White as well.
At Entry #1 – the /RTY candle turned RED and the moving averages were stacked above it. Momentum and Trend candles are White so a Short trade should be initiated.
The RED candles continued for quite a while and with conviction, the Short trade is to be held until the RED candle turned Yellow. That is the signal it is the end of the Trend.
Exit #1 – The candle turned Yellow signalling the end of the trend and it is time to exit the Short trade.
Subsequent to the exit, the Bulls tried to take /RTY upward but the candle close was trapped between the moving averages, the trade becomes volatile as it has to overcome resistances from moving averages above it and support from moving averages below it. Hence any up move or down move tends to be slow and prolonged.

This is a study of using TiTTs on the 28 September 2022. In trading, impatience and indiscipline is the greatest enemy of the P/L. In this instance, when the market opened at 9:30 am ET, the candles were showing RED which means Bearish zone. The Momentum and Trend dots were both White but from the market internals, we know the Bulls of there.
In a case of trying to anticipate the market movement, we entered Buy Long three times and were stopped out three times in a RED (SELL) zone and also when both the Momentum and Trend dots were WHITE!!! It has to be one of the silliest trade when using the TiTT system is very well setup to avoid that kind of mistakes. All the trader needs to do is to follow Buy/Sell zone, the colour of the candles and Momentum and Trend Green/White dots. Nothing could be easier.
Chart 1: 28 September 2022 – 1 minute chart showing the Entry points and also the possible Exit points
Chart 1 above shows the Entry #1 which was showing RED candles and Momentum and Trend White dots. We went Long three times and were stopped out three times. The /RTY did eventually moved upwards but that is beside the point. In trading, Patience and Discipline is a virtue.
At #2 – the /RTY pulled back to support which was the 55 SMA and 89 SMA. After a few candles, the Buy signal was given at #3.
#3 and #4 – The Momentum and Trend dots are Green. Remember that we are still in the 8/21 BUY Zone which means the 8 EMA is above the 21 EMA.
Chart 2: 28 September 2022 – 1 minute chart showing the Entry points and also the possible Exit points
In chart 2 above, we are looking at the overall market for the /RTY. Here, we monitor the 1-min chart and 3-min chart as well as the market internals like the $TICK and $ADD. The intent here is to further develop TiTTs. We could just use the 55 SMA on either the 1-min or 3-min chart to hold onto the trade for a larger profit. The Long Tide indicator is useful as it is smooths out the volatility and allows us to hold on to the trade for longer period for enhanced profit.
