Long 11,150 to 13,750 Double Top
Updated
As per my previous analysis we had a good stab at reaching a double top reaching into the low 13K's however we didn't quite pull off the top around 13,750-13,800 that I was hoping for. Luckily for us we are now printing a new fractal that looks like it could finally get us to our target. Long from 11,150ish on the second touch of the pink support line. Target is 13,750.
Stop 10,800.
Stop 10,800.

My entry for first long = 11,077. Stop loss has been moved to 11,110 for small profit in case of any surprises. Target 1 = 12,200 which is when I will be switching back to a short (12,200 to 11,300). Note
Bullish crossover of Fisher Transform should see us to our target area to close longs. We will hit the green dotted line first (around 12,175); before a minor retrace to around 11,975. We should then see a small leg up to somewhere around 12,300-12,400 which will form our local top. I have highlighted where this should be with the purple horizontal line; but will move it once we have confirmation (as it is difficult to determine exactly where a pattern will form before it has really even started to form - we just know it will form!). Note
Stops have also been moved slightly higher to 11,210 to lock in a bit more profit in case the pattern does fail.Note
Just had second touch of pink line which is a long signal. My previous entry was stopped out in profit. However I had buy orders set for 11,200-11,000 in 50 dollar intervals for an average entry point of just over 11,100. Stop loss is currently set for 10,950 and will be moved up to break even when we head a bit higher. Note
Note; something to be wary of here. Based on the structure it seems we might be working more with the smaller ascending triangle highlighted in the below screen shot. This does not affect the ultimate goal, however it does lower the short term profits if trading within the triangle. I might re-do this analysis depending on how the structure looks in the next hour or so. So just be mindful that I will start taking profits from my long entry at just over 11,100 at 11,800 and looking to ladder in shorts from 11,800 up to 12,100. Note
Also, forget to mention - stops have been moved into profit again 11,180 (from 11,100 entry) just in case the pattern fails. Geometric fractals are great to trade, however they can break without warning - so as soon as practicably possible it is a good idea to move stops to break even, then a bit of profit before letting them ride out. That way it is a win-win regardless of the outcome.Note
Yep, we are going for an intial top of 11,800 at the orange line before we retest the pink support line. I will keep this running perhaps, but will create a new analysis using this point as the triangle top. Note
Reached first take profit level. Shorts laddered in up to purple line just in case we go a bit higher. Regardless; we will soon find out exactly where our resistance line is. Short to bottom of triangle. It could go slightly lower than I have drawn; though we will find this out soon enough too! Note
My average entry is 11,910. Stops moved to break even. Placed a couple new short orders for 11,800 and 11,850 to increase my short position as we might have a little wick up before we go down further. Note
