New Highs, New Opportunities: How to Ana...

Brian Montes
About this episode

When a stock reaches all-time highs, most new traders hesitate — assuming it’s “too late” to enter.
In this episode, Brian Montes breaks down a structured approach to analyzing breakout stocks, using volume confirmation, consolidation structure, relative strength, and the 1.618 Fibonacci Extension to identify sustainable upside potential.

Learn how to move from emotion-based trading to structured technical analysis, so you can confidently trade in price discovery territory — where real market leaders are born.


In this episode, we discuss -

  • Why all-time highs signal strength, not exhaustion.

  • How to confirm a breakout using volume analysis.

  • Understanding pullbacks and retests for optimal entries.

  • The role of relative strength in identifying market leaders.

  • How to apply the Fibonacci Extension Tool to project price targets — including the 1.618 extension zone.

  • Common mistakes traders make when analyzing breakouts.

  • A real-world look at stocks like NVDA to see how new highs often lead to bigger moves.

Technical Tools Discussed

  • Volume Profile & Breakout Confirmation

  • Support/Resistance Flip (Retest Setup)

  • Relative Strength Line

  • Fibonacci Extension Tool (1.0, 1.272, 1.618 levels)

  • Trend Structure and Consolidation Patterns
