Basic Charting Course – Bruce Fraser & Roman Bogomazov

What will be covered?

This course presents a wealth of foundational chart-reading knowledge, encompassing both Technical Analysis (TA) and the Wyckoff Method.  You will learn elemental to intermediate charting principles, including our personal interpretations of conventional (TA) concepts within a Wyckoff Method context. The Basic Course focuses on the essential analytical techniques that will allow you to make a seamless transition from TA to the Wyckoff Method!

How will you benefit from these materials?

This course will provide you with a clear understanding of:

• Fundamental concepts in Technical Analysis (TA)
• Core analytical principles of the Wyckoff Method
• Our perspectives of the key differences and areas of complementarity between conventional TA and the Wyckoff Method

When you complete the Basic Course, you will be well prepared for the next steps on the path to mastery of the Wyckoff Method.

Each of the videos has accompanying slides, which can be printed out to allow you to take notes on as you watch the presentations. You will have one full year from the date of purchase to view and review the videos!

20. What’s next? Complimentary Wyckoff Trading Course 1st session + Wyckoff Market Discussion

How should you study this material?

Step 1: Watch the videos. You can binge-watch them OR you can review one session per day.

Step 2: Review the additional materials provided on the last slide of each presentation.  These include “Wyckoff Power Charting” blogs, Chartschool articles and Youtube videos.

Our advice: Conclude each session – and the supplementary materials – with a sense of mastery before proceeding to the next. This approach will help you attain the deep knowledge needed to successfully apply these concepts to your trading.

What comes next?

The final video in this course includes links to complimentary sessions of the Wyckoff Trading Course (WTC) and our Wyckoff Market Discussion (WMD).  The WTC gives traders the tools to analyze charts and execute trades using the Wyckoff Method.  In the WMD, we analyze current markets – major U.S. indexes, sectors, industry groups and individual stocks – from a Wyckoff Method perspective, and demonstrate the utility of this approach in anticipating the future direction of any freely traded market.
