In this Strategy report, we will teach you a great price action strategy that is simple to 
learn and not confusing mainly because it does not require any indicators on your chart. 
 
Now I am not knocking indicators in any way. Many people use indicators to trade the 
market. In fact we even have indicators that we developed that help traders. 
 
Some people just like the clean look of the charts with no indicators, which is why we 
developed this strategy for you. 
 
Before I get into teaching you this great strategy, I am going to explain to you the core 
elements in price action so that you, as a trader, can be fully equipped to trade the 
strategy I am teaching. 

What is Price Action? 


In a broad definition, Price action is simply how the price will react at certain levels of 
resistance or support.  
 
This technical analysis approach will help you learn things from the price history and 
identify the swing high/swing low, trend lines, and past support or resistance areas. 
 
Now, this could be the price testing a support or resistance area. It could even be when the 
price movement creates a ​s​wing high or swing low. 
 
Price action requires no lagging indicators or moving averages to distract you from the 
price. The chart will have a clean look to it. It's refreshing sometimes to see a clean chart 
with no indicators. In fact, some traders make a living trading without ever looking at an 
indicator.

Pin Bars 
This price action strategy will focus entirely on a price pattern called pin bars. This candle 
is simply the price hitting a certain level and being "rejected" from it. This bar has a long 
tail on it with a small little body. A pin bar can look like this: 

3 ​Price Action Pin Bar Trading Strategy


 
There are different types of characteristics of a particular pin bar.  
 
For instance, the long end of the candle is the wick, while the small end (the opposite side 
of the body) is called the nose. 
 
Most agree that the long tail or "wick" will be at least two-thirds the total length of the 
pin bar itself. The other part of the pin bar will naturally be, at the most, one-third of the 
candle then. The open price of the candle and the close should be relatively the same 
price. This forms the 'Body.' 
 
To confirm a pin bar, you must wait for the candle to close. Just because the current candle 
"looks" like a pin bar does not necessarily mean it is one. in the example above, the price 
movement could have continued upward and closed at the top of the candle which in turn 
would not be considered a pin bar.

Basic Guidelines For this Strategy: 
● Timeframe-ANY 
● Market- ANY 
● Indicators- NONE 
● OTHER- Trend lines, horizontal lines, support resistance lines (anything to help you 
find these areas 

Step 1: Find a Pin Bar On Your Chart 


What you need to do first is identify a pin bar that has formed. In the example, I will show 
you this will be considered a bullish pin bar because of the long wick below the body. 

7 ​Price Action Pin Bar Trading Strategy


 
So as you can see the pin bar "wick" is below the body which is considered a bullish pin 
bar. 
 
In this case, we are looking for a continuation of this uptrend. This is a 1 hour time chart 
AUDJPY currency pair. 
 
You can see that the Bears tried their hardest to stop this uptrend from occurring, but the 
Bulls​ were too strong which is why you see this pin bar form. 
This is a perfect example of a ​pin bar price action reversal setup. 

 
So what happened? 

Step 2: Look for Past Price Action to Determine Why The Pin Bar 
Formed. 
Why did the reversal suddenly hit a price and then continue back to the upside? 
 

8 ​Price Action Pin Bar Trading Strategy


Let's zoom out a bit on this one hour chart and see if we can see anything that tells you 
what happened. 
 
Note**​ you can either look at the current time frame you are on( in this case 1-hour time 
period) or bump up one or two periods to gather information. 

 
Aha! So take at look at those resistance price areas that the wick touched. 
 
Resistance​ in the past can mean​ support​ in the future. So what happened was the price hit 
this level but failed to break through it. 
 
Since the long bullish wick formed, we can now decide that it is time to enter this trade 
based off what we just learned from the prior days. 
 
This is what Price Action is all about. No two trades will be the same. However, we can 
take what we have learned from the past and make the best judgment as to where the 
price may be headed in the future. 
 
You are essentially like a detective when you trade price action. The point is to gather 
many pieces of evidence to back up your conclusion.  
 
You are trading with confluence. Sometimes simple is best. Study the charts and form an 
educated conclusion as to what happened and where the price will go.

Step 3: Trade entry 
You just enter the trade 2-3 pips from the break of the nose of the pin bar.  

Step 4: Stop loss 

Place the stop loss 3-5 pips away from the wick. The end of the wick will be a support 
area. So if this is broken the trend may continue downward. Which is why you place your 
stop 3-5 pips away from this.

Step 5: Exit Strategy 


Your exit strategy will be when you hit the first level of support or resistance on your 
chart. As you can see, the price hit a point a stalled out. Once we see the price action 
stalling out, we exit the trade immediately.

Conclusion 
Price action is another fundamental element to learning when trading the market. There 
are thousands of strategies you can use with price action. What is important is that you 
find something that works for you. These pin bars are hard to miss and are relatively 
accurate when you learn why a pin bar formed. Pin bar candles can be seen in any time 
frame. The rule of thumb is, the higher the time frame, the stronger the signals. But that 
does not mean that this will not work on a five-minute time frame.​ Do not trade every pin 
bar you see that formed.​ Gather up key information from the charts, and form the best 
conclusion to determine if you should enter the trade based on the rules. 
 
Try the price action pin bar strategy out on a demo account first and see if works for you! If 
you find something that you think can improve it, let us know! We love hearing from you
