MONEY: IN SMALL TRENDSIn my own methodology I've shown in other charts that, it doesn't matter which time frame you make your money. I even showed a 3 min trend on one occasion. All this true is trend-following - which is different to following a moving average of some sort. The ATR line reacts differently to price fluctuations. The important thing is to minimise losses. This chart is a 15 min time frame. It's of little value now because the start of the trend is where you want to be. But for the future I'm showing where the entry point is. Similar strategies can be used on other time frames. 1. See the trend breaking down and fighting to stay afloat. 2. See the double top on the 15 min time frame. 3. See price collapse. 4. See the rebound to 0.5% fib. Experience is required with all this. In this scenario the stop-loss could have been just above 0.618. That was an unlikely rebound in this particular scenario because price was struggling already. (In other scenarios where price isn't struggling as much I've seen retracements to 0.76 and above). Please note carefully: true trend following is a higher risk strategy but also an exceptionally higher reward strategy. It loses far more often than other strategies. But numbers of losses mean little. Why? It's the aggregate of the minority of big gains well outweighing minimised greater numbers of small losses. It certainly isn't for 'everybody'. In he captioned scenario, nobody knows how far that 15 min trend will go. NOBODY! For trend-followers in this scenario, the exit would be the amber line. In other words, the market shows the entry point and the exit point. That's very scary.

AUS200: NO SLEEP - POPCORN AND PIZZA TONIGHT!No sleep for me tonight - and I'll be feeding on popcorn and beer! 🤣😂 Maybe a pizza or two. 🍕🍕 The set up here looks like a good short coming up. (Note the brutal disclaimers). 1. There is big trouble with Chinatown all over the world. Something about China banning shares on some American exchange - or something like that. The Dragon Index took a nose dive, and that reverberated into the Tech100. (See snapshot below - and check the news). 2. The Aussies are usually delayed in reacting. I don't know why. Maybe they're asleep due to some time zone effect when the action has happened. The current reaction is slow, on one 4H candle but the price action is better seen on 5 to 15 min time frames. 3. What happens with the Aussies - and I've seen it too many times - is that they wake up and go "OMG!" Then they panic buy or sell. 4. Normally the big action starts around 00:30 to 01:00 UK local time. As the Aussies open their exchange fully, there is usually some serious price action on 5 to 15 min time frames. Usually if sudden movement happens in that half-hour that sets the stage for what'll happen next in terms of direction - but expect big whipsaws between 00:30 and 02:00 AM. Whipsaws are nice if you know what you're doing. If you don't stay out! 5. The Aussie track both Tech and DJI for sense of direction. Well, as USTech has been clobbered, I expect the Aussies to run scared. Hello - I could always be wrong. This is shared experience - not advice! The smartest people so far are the Germans. The DAX took a pump south already. Now they're consolidating and thinking what to do next. Disclaimer: This is not advice or encouragement to trade securities or any asset class.

Is this a breakdown or a meltup?The choice is yours - you can see it any way you like. The technical features here are: 1. Reducing peaks of squeeze momentum. 2. Recent RSI is below 50. 3. Rejection of 4H ATR line. 4. Large area of consolidation. Caution: none of the above means that price has to crash. Just to be clear - price could well go to the moon. The technical situation in my assessment (at this time) means greater probability for the south. Probability estimates do not predict how far a movement may go. This is a set up for a trend-following scenario i.e. high risk to high gain. High risk means high probability of big losses, if you don't know what you're doing if you short this. Following a trend south means finding a suitable trend that is below the 4H time frame. There is no magic formula to work that out.

AUSSIES: Advance noticeIt's not quite a head and shoulders just yet. This is about watching for potential situations and preparing for them. As I showed in other charts, sometimes we can get a a second right shoulder in ultra-bullish markets but there is no law on what can happen in these markets. Readiness is (almost) everything.

AUS200: Possible triple topThis one to watch. For new traders its a nice one to try out on a Tradingview paper trading account. The possible triple top is into a zone of congestion. Price may go up or it may go down - only two directions here. All you can do is take a controlled affordable loss (aka stoploss). This is positional play for finding a trend south on a lower time frame. Disclaimers : This is not advice or encouragement to trade securities on live accounts.

The Aussies: Is this another one-candle situation?Well, it is one candle at the leading edge. We cannot know if it means anything until stuff happens. Those who look for predictions that foretell the future are in the wrong game. In trend-following methodologies, one would ride an escalator down or up - on a smaller time frame that that shown here (to conserve losses). When you zoom out of this chart, you see a market struggling to stay afloat. That's usually not a good sign. The 4H ATR line is above the recent batch of ranging candles. This means there is bearish pressure in this market (on this time frame only). The bulls have lots of work to do if they wanna get above the 4H (amber) line. The trouble for the Aussies is that they are bounced around by a) the DJI b) the USTech100 and c) US Bond markets. That's why it looks so indecisive (at this time). They are normally most scared of the USTech indices. So watch USTech as well for a steer on probabilities on lower time frames.

ridethepig | Opportunities in Hydrogen stocks📌 Another single stock opportunity... I will start posting a lot more of these as the feedback has shown it is working. For today we are tracking a very interesting flow that is finally coming into fruition. Australia, Japan are advancing talks on hydrogen and a deal is around the corner. The breakout of the highs shows flexibility required and is an example of how to look at the important aspects rather than political noise. Momentum players here wish to play down an extension of the range, they wish to create for themselves an advance with reason and presence from the PM visit to Japan to make it a celebration. Another 75% is necessary, despite the fact we are already up big. Buyers should continue to find the courage to resist taking profits and quietly continue loading. The target of 1.50 is possible here . Thanks as usual for keeping the feedback coming 👍or 👎

ASX - Wave Revision - Ending Diagonal Wave VMapping out the exact waves in this ending diagonal in the Australian Stock Exchange. Wave v is breaking back into the AriasWave pitchfork channel and will soon retest in Wave E of Wave (B) of this Expanding Type-2 Zig-Zag. Once the final high is made just above the purple line and then dips back below it this should indicate a top. Once it breaks back down and out of the AriasWave pitchfork channel this should confirm a top is in place. Please LIKE and FOLLOW to get notification of updates and future posts.

The Aussies: Mind the Wedges!I show what happened after two wedge formations. Note carefully wedges do not rule the market. The create probabilities not predictions. Wedges do fail. There is hardly ever a perfect wedge pattern. The most recent one doesn't look too great. Price can fall out of a wedge and rock back in as you will see. Therefore trendlines drawn have to be estimates. From experience only, recovery from the base of wedges - when the happen tend to get closer to the notional apex of the wedge or exceed them. As I said, there is no rule - because these formations do not rule the markets. Wedges often don't work. These descending wedges shown are in a bull market, hence the expectation is for price to recover. This market could be collapsing when looked at from a higher time frame. Therefore, I do not expect a good retracement up on the most recent wedge. But I'm always happy to be surprised. My strategy here, is to follow a 5 to 10 min trend up as far as it will go. That means, no targets. I am aware of much that has been written about wedges out there by many a guru. I do my own thing with these formations. I also know that wedges go by different names. Call it what you want - the important issue is the general shape. I am not a wedge expert. Disclaimers : This is not advice or encouragement to trade securities on live accounts.
