Wyckoff Method — Trading Accumulation and Distribution

r/technicalanalysisstocksDaily to Weekly (weeks to months hold)by reddit_community

Wyckoff accumulation/distribution trading. Enter after Spring (false breakdown) + SOS (rally). Retest of Spring = optimal entry. Aligns with institutional smart money.

ENTRY RULES

Identify accumulation range after downtrend (price consolidating) | Wait for Spring — false breakdown below range support | Confirm with Sign of Strength — strong rally back into range on high volume | Enter on retest of Spring level | Volume should be declining on retest (sign of absorption)

EXIT RULES

First target at top of trading range | Second target at 1.5x range height above breakout | Stop loss below Spring low | Trail using ascending trendline from Spring low | Exit if price re-enters range and stays below midpoint for 3+ days

Wyckoff Method — Trading Accumulation and Distribution

Wyckoff method identifies institutional accumulation (buying) and distribution (selling) phases. Accumulation: after a downtrend, price enters a trading range. Look for a Spring (false breakdown below range) followed by a Sign of Strength (SOS) rally. Enter after the SOS when price retests the Spring level. Distribution is the reverse. Understanding these phases puts you on the same side as smart money.
