Simple yet effective explanations and examples of the BF. Biggest take aways are outside candles are BFs on a smaller TF and Stratters look for reversals at exhaustion risk = actionable signal. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience on various platforms!

Excellent video! Thanks for showing us how you draw the formations, that was really helpful. Looking forward to the next one! Have a great weekend!

Thanks Sara, great job. Love how you break things down so we can understand.

I'm really learning a lot from these videos Sara, you explain it so clearly. Thank you!

Watching all your videos Sara, and I must say I am so thankful to you for taking time out to make these videos for new traders just like myself. Thank you again.

Great Job! really appreciate it. enjoyed your singing at 13:50 that song was the 90's anthem.

Sara, you're broadening my knowledge of technical charting exponentially! Thank you for "HOW YOU DO IT"

Thanks Sara. You were made for teaching. You have it all in you - clear and straight to the point, you speak slow and explain things in detail. The best strat teacher. God Bless!!

Good explanation I believe the problem is when we don't look at the higher time frame and have it side by side, that is why we don't move our stops or dont have a hard stop in place. The broadening formation key is the entry, if you enter when it closes up on a 2-2 long or a 212 reversal long, you would expect a broadening formation upwards. You just sell it at the top or the worst you can do is break even. The worst it can do is break even if you move your stop to your break even. Unless you went long at the top and let it dip below your stop and you keep riding it down. Broadening formations are basically the opposite of a flag, or it is also known as a megaphone formation. The hardest thing if to determine your time frame and the charts that you are going to trade off. If you trade of a 5 mins, 15mins, or a 1H chart, you shouldn't switching back and forth between them, I learned this in a hard way, this is like entering on a 5 mins chart and exiting on a 1HR, etc. Rather have all of them on one screen. Cheers.

Thank you Sara! For all you do and knowledge you share to the Strat community; well appreciated.

Love the Montel Jordan, "This is How We Do It". Awesome video, the pieces are coming together and making more sense. Thanks so much for what you do!!

This was so good and Totally understood it. Thank you so much, now I'm go in to practice this on several charts. Study and application makes it work.

BOOM! I just made $40 with the strat! Thank you Sara!

Thank you. For whatever reason my over analytical head hasn’t been able to put things together. This video greatly, greatly helps.

Very Good Explanation on risk and broadening formation. Thanks Sara!!!

Thank you Sara. That was beautifully explained. I'm learning a lot from your videos and can't really wait to test my knowledge ( I'm still not a 100% confident )

beautifully explained!...Thank you

You make too much sense, sad I didn’t discover you and the Strat earlier in my trading career, but happy I’m here now 🎉

Been learning the Strat, but this is a great video. Excited to watch more videos.

Long live the Queen! Thank you so much for sharing!

More lessons and charting on Broadening formation would be great. Get down on it! Get down on it!

Great explanation, thank You Sarah

Awesome Sara!! Great explanation.

"Who are we to be long against?" Great question. Thanks for the vid.

Great explanation, thank You Sarah😘

Great video Sara. Thanks for the effort and happy weekend !!

Thanks Sara!.

Good video. Thanks, Sara!

W. D. Gann would love this approach you have. Enjoyed your tweet today and Happy Mother's Day. From your photos I thought that person was your younger sister. ;-))

Hi Sara thanks for the reminder of the broadening formation video. This was great. Had to watch a couple of times. Each time I watch I learn something new..jam packed. W great info.. loved the little singing too. Ur the best hope u Rocco and fam r doing well. 👍🎾

Thanks for the great explanation

Very helpful Sara!

Thanks Sara!

Super Sara!! I love me some brakdening formations!! Give me those 3-2d at the bottom of a BF...rocket back when confirmation hits

You have me seriously second guessing my reality of it being Saturday at the moment.

Thank you, Sara. You are very real in these videos.

Just here to give you your 💐…Thanks Sara for all the good you’re doing!

The best explanation

Thank you

Great video, thanks Sara

Great breakdown as usual. Let me be among the first to wish you a Happy Mother’s Day 2021 and thanks for all you do here!

Do you Sara! LOL, I was singing with you... It's Friiiiidaaaaay night and I feel all right. The party's here on the West side... Thank you for a clear explaination. I dig your teaching style. ❤️

I appreciate your time and effort in helping stratters understand what to do! I’m relatively new to the strat with a smaller account. How do you gauge options contracts with broadening formations?

Insightful video, thanks Sara you rock 🤟⚡

Mucho gracias

“This is how we do it...” lol! Humor helps in videos! Nice work on this. Your edits were worth it.

Really great performance personality besides dead cool data. Thanks.

Another great video!

Thanks for another fine video. :)

Very knowledgeable you are

Amazing video thank you

You are helping me so much. Really appreciate you❤

I've been exploring the strat and have watched your vids already. I'm spending time bingeing them all again and taking notes. Going on in on The Strat this Thursday. I've even set up my charts with custom pinescript indicators numbering the bars and placing your famous Month, Week, and Day High-Low lines. I've also got labels that pop up when reversal patterns appear. Thursday will be the big test :) Thanks for all you do.

thanks your videos are always great

excellent !!! nice explanation

Thanks again Sara. One question with your Nvidia example (14:34)...where would you've put the lower line of the broadening formation before your first short trade? Would it have been the pivot lows of the 2 3's sandwiching the 1..sort of!?😂

Hi Sara, thank you!!!! question on Stops when trading options. Which platform do you use.? I use E*TRADE and it requires contract value stops limit and not the actual dollar hard stop. It’s hard calculating what the contract value would be for a hard dollar amount stop. I want to gradually move my stop up as price goes up. Hope that made sense.

Hi Sara, thanks for the great content. I have a few questions. For trades taken off the daily, with targets from either the daily or weekly, do you have a minimum risk reward parameter in assessing to take the trade? What is your typical win rate % and average R per winner and average R per loser. It seems as though this system is high win rate low R so trade frequency is important. You have reviewed many examples of trades with multiple targets, how are you scaling? Lastly, you have also shown some examples with entry on daily using the trigger on the weekly as target. Do you ever add to the trade when hitting the weekly target instead of taking profits? Thank you for your time.

Great video

Fast forward to 13:50 😉

Thank you for all the details! Please correct me if i am wrong. Although the targets are predictable, It is hard to say Strat is a rule based strategy because a 2up or a 2down can turn into a 3 at the last second before the candle closes even after my entry was hit? Please correct me if i am missing something

Sarah leaking alpha for free, gootta love it ❤

thank you for this video. i just have a question about the entry you were pointing out @11 minutes, at the 2-up and 2-down candles. if one was to make that entry, it wouldn't have been triggered because price did not actually go back to it, right? maybe it did at a later time, but not on that specific example. am i wrong, or am i just missing something?

Hey Sara - Thanks for the video...I've been searching about BFs for awhile now so I'm so glad you made this...I haven't however been able to find the TFC Arrows in Tradingview...would you know a better way to hunt it down?

I’ve watched this video at least 4 times and 🎶🎤 “this is how we do it” 🎤🎶 gets me every time 😂

So if I'm understanding this right; it doesnt matter about the color of the candle just the actual wicks themsevles which hit the LL or HH.

You are awesome! I hope you know that😀

0:34 Broadening Formation

Is your chart template available with the candles numbers and the indication of the time frame direction? If so, how is it accessed? Thanks Terry

I meant to leave the comment about drawing broadening formations on BABA here. If you have timeframe conflict but you get a hammer 2 up, previous candle was a red 2 down, that would indicate a reversal to the upside, correct? And if that is the case, would it appear that it would the top of the broadening formation?

Great video with neat explanation. One question - Say, in a Day timeframe, can today's Low or High can be a pivot point (aka edge) low/high for broadening formation? Because there is no bars after today yet.

This is how we do it 😆😆😆 Great video

Great shoutout to Montel Jordan 🕺

Sara- Thanks. I watch & rewatch & rewatch all your vids. Is that Trendview charting in this video? It allows you to program the strat numbers?

how did she get trading view to mark the candles as 2-1-3 etc??

Thank you for the video Sara! At what point do you erase a BF and start over? Do you try to keep BF's as close to current price action as possible? How far back is it practical to draw them?

Thanks again sara for ur time making these videos.. Do you only post ideas on Twitter or on any discord?

A great video it is! Well just a quick question: You strongly believe BF MUST be played strictly in accordance with timeframe continuity for better results?

I watched this and knew AMD was going to drop in the open… thank you

Do you consider the angle that the broadening formation creates when making your highs and lows? If so, what is your recommendation as I feel like I am fitting a line to my expectations of a new possible high or low rather than letting price action dictate what the new highs or lows could be.

What is that color arrow indicator?

What if is a lower high but even lower lows. Downward or upward megaphone. Some trader says that's indication of major support resistance also reversal signal. Cuz so many traders are trading causing wide range. But then some trader says reversal sign should be small range/volume signaling 1 side is exhausting

on the $PENN example, how did you decide which is the high? there are many 2Up candles before and after the candle you picked that have a higher high?

Hi Sara, how do you know when you are at exhaustion?

Better than all "Price Action" books! 1000,000 likes!

Hi Sara, great video really enjoyed it and thanks for all the great work you do for the STRAT community. A question, if you are a very short term swing trade (2-3 holder of a move), which chart would u want to plot ur price targets on preferably.

Question: Your $PENN example, being that you're a day trader and PENN did a $30 move over about 10 days. Do you hold things that long & overnight or do you close out at end of day to avoid AH & PM gaps that can possibly move against you? If you close out at EOD, would you not lose out on most of that $30 move over the 10 or so days?

How do you identify origin of formation?

Doesn't this correlate with ICT as broading formations are liquidity sweeps?

Hey Snipper Sarah, how do I add the background color to my charts and the numbers above the candles instead of beneath in Trading View?

I'm new to this stuff. There has got to be something i can take away in this for Forex Pairs, right?. Thank you for the help.

Can you explain why we should be "adding to" when there is an inside bar?

Hoping you do an analysis of APPS this weekend for your weekend watch list cause I’m getting confused 😐

Sara which timeframe is the best to draw your broadening formation ?

Whats long, short mean?

Do you think these methods can be used on Penny stocks as well or only options and large caps basically?

This is very easy to do in hindsight, but in real-time it's a different story. For example, @9:40, there is no way that in real-time you would have picked that candle for a high.

Why did you call the red candle at the top of the broaden formation which was red a 2up? Is it because it open opened and closed above previous candle?

Does the reversal strat/ candlestick formations ever fail? Seems to have perfect backtesting results, do u know its winrate on an index like SPY

Is there any video/content to explain the exhaustion of the stocks?
