what is point and figure chart and how
[3]
to trade with it
[4]
in this video let us understand about
[7]
noiseless point and figure chart
[9]
also called as pnf chart we will also
[12]
look at some patterns that can help you
[14]
make better trade decisions
[16]
so let us first understand how to
[18]
calculate pnf chart
[20]
this chart plots filtered price
[22]
movements consisting of
[24]
x's and o's each of them occupies a box
[28]
with a specific box value known as box
[30]
size
[31]
x represents rising price and o
[34]
indicates falling price
[36]
x or o are plotted with the price
[38]
movement
[39]
in specific direction there is also a
[42]
setting for column reversal
[44]
after the price movement of this amount
[46]
in opposite direction
[48]
the column reverses generally the
[50]
reversal amount
[51]
is three times the box size let's
[54]
suppose the box
[55]
size on a chart is rupees 5 then the
[58]
reversal amount
[59]
is 3 times the box size which is rupees
[62]
15.
[63]
let's take these price movements as an
[66]
example to construct
[67]
a pnf chart let us start plotting price
[71]
movements
[72]
on the chart and assume the box size
[75]
is 5. in this example with the box size
[78]
of 5
[80]
price of 401 and 403
[83]
will not be recorded as it is under the
[86]
value of the box size
[88]
when the price moves to 408
[91]
x will be plotted against the price of
[93]
405
[95]
similarly with the price movement of 413
[99]
and 416
[101]
x will be plotted against 410
[104]
and 415 respectively but when the prices
[108]
start decreasing
[109]
reversal amount is three times the box
[112]
size so
[113]
o will be plotted only when the price
[115]
falls by rupees 15
[117]
from the current price level in this
[119]
case nothing will be done for price
[121]
movements of 408 and 403
[124]
when the price falls to rupees 399
[128]
three o's will be marked simultaneously
[130]
against 410
[132]
405 and 400 now let us understand
[136]
pnf chart patterns these charts are
[139]
objective
[140]
and can be perceived differently by
[142]
traders for recognizing the patterns
[144]
let us see some of these patterns double
[147]
top
[148]
and bottom they are the easiest and
[151]
simplest trade signals
[152]
a double top buy signal is just a box
[155]
break away from the preceding x column
[158]
likewise a double bottom cell pattern
[161]
can be spotted
[162]
when a column of o falls below the
[165]
previous column of os
[167]
let us take a glance at this chart to
[169]
get a better understanding
[172]
these are the double top by breakout
[174]
signals
[176]
and these are double bottom breakouts
[179]
similarly there are triple and quadruple
[182]
top
[182]
bottom patterns they work in the same
[185]
way as
[186]
double top and bottom pattern super
[189]
pattern
[190]
there are three rules to formation of a
[192]
super pattern
[194]
number one strong trend with at least
[197]
10 box move after breakout signal number
[200]
two
[201]
a small price reversal which is not more
[204]
than four boxes
[206]
and number three continuation of the
[208]
breakout
[210]
let us look at this chart for example
[212]
there is an example of both
[214]
a downward trend and an upward trend
[217]
here
[218]
a strong upward trend is followed by a
[220]
small pullback
[221]
of about four boxes and later there is a
[224]
continuation
[225]
of upward trend and this is an example
[229]
of downward super pattern buying or
[232]
selling
[232]
after a retracement like this pattern
[234]
becomes more feasible
[235]
in a pnf chart as the insignificant
[238]
moves are avoided
[240]
to summarize pnf chart is primarily
[243]
based on price action and not time
[246]
many traders believe that support
[248]
resistance levels
[250]
and breakouts are more clearly defined
[252]
on a pnf chart
[254]
since it filters out tiny price
[256]
movements and is less likely of false
[258]
breakouts
