The Wyckoff Method is a trading and investment strategy developed by Richard D. Wyckoff in the early 20th century. It focuses on understanding market trends and the behavior of large institutional investors, known as "smart money." The method emphasizes the importance of price and volume analysis to identify potential market movements. Wyckoff's approach is based on three main laws: the Law of Supply and Demand, the Law of Cause and Effect, and the Law of Effort vs. Result. Traders use these principles to make informed decisions about buying and selling assets, aiming to capitalize on market cycles and trends.
