The price action for ATOMUSDT (on the left side) is currently forming a bullish structure while facing a strong resistance around the 4.013 area after a first attempt on 11th-12th November which resulted in a false breakout. When looking backward, traders may notice a bullish structure formation initiated by a double bottom in September. This should attract traders' attention in a context where the market is within a bearish trend.
Overview: since the double bottom on Sept 05th and Sept 24th, the price action has made higher lows (in green on the chart) along the way. After a nearly 40% correction ended in Nov 22th, the price action found buyers in the 2.6 area (last higher low). ATOMUSDT-ATOMBTC Convergence : traders may notice a convergence by looking at the price action for ATOMBTC (on the right side) which demonstrates the same bullish structure noticed in the ATOMUSDT price action.
Risk management: given the overview, two options can be taken by traders. 1st option : traders may for a second retest of the previous support (i.e. 3.569 area) to take position. In that case, traders should place pending order along with a tight stop loss below the support. 2nd option (preferred one) : trader may wait for a breakout of the 4.013 resistance followed by a pullback to take position. In that case, an alert should be set for the crossing up of the price action.
My Trading Principles[reminder]: - Risk/Reward ratio: since it is difficult to predict every market movement, it is suggested for traders to only look for trades with a R/R ratio of at least 1:3. - Stop loss: in addition of the initial stop loss, if the price actually goes as predicted, traders should keep a trailing stop to keep some profit. - Position Sizing: it is suggested for traders to stick to their position sizing strategy. As a rule of thumb, most retail investors risk no more than 2% of their investment capital on any one trade.
