DYDX – Wick fill Strategy Trade

204
TLDR:
• If DYDX returns to fill the wick, or lower, it could be a swing long opportunity.
Background:
• Since May 2022 DYDX is trading in an accumulation range. Range low is at the 1$ level. Mid-range is at 1.65$ and the range high is at 2.7$.
Range trading:
• My basic rules of trading a range are:
1. Below the mid-range – Look for long opportunities.
2. Above the 75% of the - Look for shorts.
3. Above the 100% - Possible breakout.
Wick fill Strategy:
• A wick represents an inefficiency in PA. it is a price range with sellers or buyers only.
• Wicks tend to get filled, at least to the 50% level, to compensate for the inefficiency.
Trade Idea:
• This trade is based on the wick fill strategy. Meaning, that if price returns to fill the wick, it could be a lucrative swing-long opportunity.
• Entry: 1.45
• SL: 134
• Target: 2.69
I learned the wick fill strategy from a very known trader and teacher. It pains me that I cannot give him credit. However, TV considers this as promotion/publicity, which is not allowed to non-premium subscribers. You know who you are, Thank you Sensei.

Best wishes to all.
Note
At this stage it looks as if the mid-range line is acting as support.
trade idea is still valid. if it keeps pushing up from here, i will just be a spectator.
