We don’t have enough room to discuss breakout methodology in detail - simply check our other articles but we will discuss one fact in relation to them.

Why Most Traders Can't Buy Breakouts

Most traders fail to buy a breakout because they are obsessed with buying low and selling high, however the way to make money is to buy high and sell higher.

When a currency breaks to the upside, they wait for the pullback but in the really big trends, prices don’t pullback.

They then sit and watch the trade disappear over the horizon.

You need to have the mindset that if the break occurs you go with it. Sure, you have missed the first bit of profit but history shows there is normally plenty more to follow.

3. Trading the odds

You shouldn’t just buy a breakout – you should check that price momentum is accelerating to increase the odds of success. For this you need some momentum indicators and two great ones are the stochastic and RSI – There easy to use and very effective.

4. The hard bit!

The hard bit comes next, that’s having the courage to accept the huge gain the market is going to give you.

Most people simply can’t do this. They get obsessed with taking a profit as the profit develops, their not used to big profits and can’t accept them.

When normal volatility causes pullbacks in the trend they panic and bank early, better to have a small profit than none at all.
