Free Download the The Pattern Trader By Mark Shawzin – Includes Verified Content:
A Scientifically Tested, Pattern-Based Trading System for Serious Traders Only
Mark Shawzin’s The Pattern Trader is not another hype-driven “magic system.”
It’s a trading methodology built on scientifically tested, peer-reviewed research and requires one thing most traders fail to develop:
👉 Consistency
Mark is upfront about it:
“Most traders who try this fail. Why? Because it requires consistency.”
If you’ve tried dozens of trading systems before, this one will challenge you — not because it’s complicated, but because it must be followed with precision, the same way the researchers did when they produced the results published in reputable journals.
This is a strategy for traders ready to approach the market with discipline, clarity, and structure.
What Makes The Pattern Trader Different?
While most trading systems are based on opinions or lagging indicators, this methodology is based on a layered, scientific approach.
Each layer builds on the one before it, allowing you to evaluate markets step-by-step rather than guessing or reacting emotionally.
This eliminates ambiguity and replaces it with a process you can repeat, track, and refine.
Below is the core of Mark Shawzin’s four-step trading method.
🔷 Step 1 — The Phase
This first step uses a scientifically verified governing pattern to determine the likely direction of the market over the next 12 months.
Based on this, the market will fall into one of five phases.
Once you know the phase, you instantly know what type of opportunities you should (and shouldn’t) be looking for.
This step alone filters out 90% of low-probability trades.
🔷 Step 2 — The Pattern
After identifying the current phase, you search for a historical precedent, also called a pattern, inside that phase.
You can:
-
Locate repeating price behaviors
-
Layer multiple patterns on one chart
-
Compare patterns across different assets
This step aligns today’s market with what it has reliably done in the past — a critical advantage in a world driven by repetition and crowd psychology.
🔷 Step 3 — The Insurance Bar
Now that you’ve identified both the governing pattern and the intermediate pattern, it’s time to pinpoint where to enter.
The “insurance bar” acts as your safeguard and entry trigger.
It protects you from false breakouts and premature entries, telling you exactly:
-
When momentum is real
-
Where risk is smallest
-
When probability is highest
This is where price action and scientific structure meet.
🔷 Step 4 — The Resting Order
Instead of chasing trades or trying to outguess the market, you place a resting order (pending order).
This allows the market to:
-
Come to your price
-
Trigger your trade automatically
-
Avoid emotional decisions
-
Maintain consistency in execution
This is one of the most misunderstood — yet powerful — parts of the system.
