DXY trend reversal in 2021?Dear Traders, I have spotted falling wedge on W timeframe for DXY , which is by itself a bullish signal.
Checking price history i have found close resemblance with 2018 price action, not only by oversold levels but bullish divergence as well.
If we combine all bullish signals we have high probability for DXY trend reversal which might impact FIAT and Cryptocurrency.
Will 2021 be the year of the Dollar strength? Time will show!
Bitcoin - i open a short position From 46350 BTC/USDTShort: 46350
Targets: 45000 - 44350 - 42320 - 41100

All traders, please, don't forget for this⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
I ask each of you to consider your own risk and money management. Do not trade with a large "X10-X100" and always place a stop loss.
Today we have already opened one short position from 47005
I announced this in the comments under the latest BNB / USDT trading idea.
I also wrote to everyone who asked about the position.
I may be wrong this time, but I chose this position, despite the fact that the price of bitcoin is growing every hour.
I ask each of you who decided to follow this trading strategy - do not open a position with an overstated lot, do not overestimate your risk and money management, trade wisely.
Today I will analyze the situation - and I hope each of you will take advantage of it and make the right decision
BTC Bitcoin falling through 2 possible channels to the abyssHi everyone,
with the dollar DXY going up with good support and market incertitude there is a good chance that the Bitcoin will retrace.
This was a good run but we must be realistic. Don't forget CME contract will open tomorrow. Also i note a ugly close on the weekly
and monthly chart, this is putting the market at risk. Here a some key support zone and bearish factors :
Bearish factors :
-Signature of candles double top with lower highs and lower lows (W chart)
-Signature of a Shooting Star on the monthly chart and formation of a spinning top (M chart)
-Weekly MACD slowing down
-Weekly stoch RSI bearish
-Monthly stoch RSI about to cross bearish
-Monthly KDJ just turned bearish
Top Key Strong Support Zone
-Weekly MA 21 : 21243$
-0.618 from bottom of Wave 2 18423$
-Monthly MA21 : 13269$ (agressive)
-0.786 from bottom of Wave 2 12014$
I wish you a wonderful day !
Bitcoin $19000 its hard to believe a downward trend like this for bitcoin with all the bullish information . it will pump but not to the all time high as recently seen.The psychology of the trade is based on what institutions want to pay for their clients .They do not want to pay massive prices like retail traders . order placed.would be a nice bag to fill.

MARKET OVERVIEW
Price Action: Bitcoin is stuck consolidating at the 200MAs, even as ETH has broken out to the upside. Waiting to see if BTC follows ETH or continues to languish.
Areas of Interest: The area(s) of interest for us are the lows @ $28850. Once price reaches one of our areas of interest and gives us a valid entry signal, I will update the trade, so make sure you follow me to get the trade entry signals in real time.
TRADES(S) RECAP: LATEST 3 TRADES
2021/01/20: We had a winning trade! We entered short @ $34940 SL @ $35560, price reached a low of $28850, giving us a risk reward ratio of 10:1, meaning if you risked 1BTC on this trade, you could've made 10BTC.
2021/01/19: We had a winning trade! We had a signal from a strategy in the testing stage. We entered short @ $36760 SL @ $37150, price reached a low of $36K, giving us a risk reward ratio of 2:1, meaning if you risked 1BTC on this trade, you could've made 2BTC.

Long Trade Setup #1: False Breakdown
To open a long position, we are waiting for price to break above the horizontal support and then recover.
Trade Entry Confirmation:
1. Price Action: Price breaks below the then rapidly climbs above $28850, forming a bear trap
2. Candlestick Pattern: A breakdown candlestick followed by a reclaiming candlestick
3. Volume: Above average volume on both breakdown candle and reclaiming candle
4. MACD: MACD histogram bottoming out
STRATEGY TYPES
My strategies fall into three categories:
1. Official strategies are those that have proven to be profitable over a large number of trades
2. Testing strategies are those that have proven to be profitable but the sample size is relatively small
3. Formulating strategies are strategies that are still in development
ENTRY CONFIRMATIONS
Ideally we get all confirmations for an entry, but sometimes we might take a trade when we have fewer confirmations. The more confirmations, the higher the win probability, though it also means you miss out on some profitable trades if you're only taking trades when we have all confirmations. It's up to your own risk appetite to decide when you feel comfortable entering a trade. You can also adjust position size based on level of conviction, entering a bigger position when there are more confirmations. Make sure you practice proper risk management and money management.
TRADE MANAGEMENT
I have put in preliminary Stop Loss and Take Profit on the chart, but these will depend on how the entry setup forms, so I will update when we have a valid entry signal.
Stop Loss: We typically put a SL around the high / low of the entry area, though we might adjust based on market conditions such as high ATR ( average true range ) or long wicks.
Take Profit: We typically aim for at least a 2:1 RRR (risk reward ratio), but you can decide to take profits earlier, adjust stop loss as we get into profit, take partial profit, leave a small portion for larger gains, etc. How you want to manage depends on your own risk appetite and what you are comfortable with.
RISK MANAGEMENT / POSITION SIZING
Trading is a marathon, not a sprint. The key is to stay in the game long enough for long term probabilities to play out. Even strategies with 90%+ win rate will have losing trades, so if you go all in one every trade, eventually you will blow up your account. My recommendation is to dynamically change your position size based on the size of the stop loss so that you are risking 1-2% of your total account size on any given trade. This means that if you’re wrong and the trade hitting the stop loss, you lose 1-2% of your account. As an illustration, if your account balance is 1BTC, then the most you should lose on any given trade should be 0.01-0.02BTC. Notice that I didn’t mention leverage here. Because what leverage (3X, 5X,10X, etc.) doesn’t matter here. What matters is the position size that matches up with a 1-2% account balance risk.
HOW TO USE MY ANALYSIS
Every day I post potential areas of interest and trade setups based on the latest market conditions and market structure. Once price reaches one of the identified areas of interest and gives a valid entry signal, I will post the entry, along with stop loss and take profit levels, in real time. No hindsight 20/20 here. Everything is in real time for full transparency and so that you can actually enter the same trades that I'm entering. Some trades only give us a few minutes to enter, which is why it's imperative that you follow me so that you don't miss out. Below are two ways that you can use the analysis that I publish daily:
1. You can integrate my analysis into your own analysis, for example by using it as a starting point, or as confirmation of your own TA, or to identify potential trades for yourself.
2. You follow the trade setups and trade entry signals that I give in real time.

Bitcoin Danger ZoneContinued though from the last posts (in French, not sorry) so you can trace my thinking and analysis forming 4 days ago.
Lots here, lots to say, let's breakdown. What if people got it wrong: Emotions may have made many want to see an unsustainable uptrend reboot via a triangle. Here is why I think they got this wrong, completely wrong, and the trick was not easy to spot.
Lets first get out a bit of the key:
- Orange, the trend from December.
- Dark red, approx support/resistance levels
- Blue, triangle
- Red, "triangle" exists
- Grey, potential trajectory in next few weeks/months
- Pink, trend line (curved).
Alright, this triangle. We have heard enough of it. Sign of continued uptrend of which all scenarios have failed for 2 major reasons: 3 lower highs in a row (failure to regain ATH), and double exit from the bottom. The first exit (red) was predictable, but the second (red) break through the December uptrend (orange) and opens wide compared to the first which was opening narrow. This is a negative sign adding to the fact that the market rejects December average trend.
Reason in fact, if you look closely, (the trick) the 35-36k support/resistance, was a double pivot for both a triangle and a swing failure. There was no triangle, in fact, the swing failure was confirmed twice. And the stockRSI confirms the market behaviors on these exists.
This makes me speculate that the trend now is "curved", which would announce a market reversal into a bearish movement. If I speculate a little further, correction some thought happened, had not, it's only starting. No financial advice but if you are risk-averse, time to close positions, avoid a blood bath and compensate losses with a leverage future BTC:DOWN.
A triangle and a swing failure with the same pivot. Rare, but it illustrates one thing: be wary of people only seeing triangles they may miss the swing below...
BTCUSD Short Term and Swing TargetsBITSTAMP:BTCUSD Has put in a swing low at 34,385 and pulled back from that area. This area is my first target for a short position as Bitcoin continues to put in lower highs. If the lows are broken I believe Bitcoin can swing to lower support at 32,376 increasing supply in the market. The drop would serve as a part of the natural rotation of Bitcoin after a failed break at 40,000 earlier this week (likely a result of buyer shock). Furthermore, the initial drop from 41,000 greatly increased short term uncertainty in BTCUSD, and those who were convinced of moonshots to 50k-100k might be taking a breather after such a rapid drop. Take all this with a grain of salt as the market has continued to see increasing buying volume and I simply believe that 32,000 would hold as strong floor.

TRADE SETUPS
Below are the potential trade setups that I would be interested in trading. Regardless of the path that the price takes, I will be monitoring the market for a valid trade entry signal.
Long Trade Setup #2: False Breakdown
To open a long position, we are waiting for price to break above the horizontal support and then recover.
Trade Entry Confirmation:
1. Price Action: Price breaks below the then rapidly climbs above $34.4K, forming a bear trap
2. Candlestick Pattern: A breakdown candlestick followed by a reclaiming candlestick
3. Volume: Above average volume on both breakdown candle and reclaiming candle
4. MACD: MACD histogram bottoming out
Short Trade Setup #1: Retest and Continuation (200MAs)
To open a short position, we are waiting for price to retrace back up to test the 200MAs and then continue moving down.
Trade Entry Confirmation:
1. Price Action: Price needs to move back up to the 200MAs, currently projected to be @ $36.4-36.7K by the time price reaches it, and bounce back up.
2. Candlestick Pattern: A bearish candlestick pattern
3. Volume: Above average volume on entry candle
4. MACD: MACD histogram topping out
ENTRY SIGNAL TYPES
Trade calls will be separated into two categories, official and unofficial. The reason for the distinction is that official entry calls are only for high probability trade setups whereas unofficial calls might have slightly lower probability of winning but positive net profitability due to high risk reward. As I see a lot of traders, do not practice proper risk management and position sizing, I want to protect them from the second type of trades. At the same time, I know there are more sophisticated traders who can take advantage of both types of calls. So this is the solution that I’ve come up with, which is to separate the two trade types into two types of entry calls. Official entry calls will come with detailed entry, stop loss and take profit levels, whereas unofficial trade entries might or might not and will rely a little bit more on the trader themselves to manage the trade. This is one way to distinguish the more experienced traders from the newer ones. If you are unable to enter an unofficial trade entry without those details, then it means that you shouldn’t be taking those trades and should stick only to the official trades.
1. Official entry calls will be posted using “trading active” post type.
2. Unofficial entry calls are potential good trading opportunities that will be posted using “comments” post type.

BITCOIN - What Are We Looking At Here? Let's Talk About It.We have not seen confirmation of a reversal yet but I want to ask you a couple of questions.
Do you even know how the waves operate?
Are you hodling because you know the waves or do you think the waves are irrelevant?
If you think the waves are irrelevant then do not watch this video and just continue to do what you are doing.
If you trust the waves and just need to understand the waves in progress here then you have come to the right place.

Once price reaches one of the identified areas of interest and gives a valid entry signal, I will post the entry, along with stop loss and take profit levels, in real time. No hindsight 20/20 here. Everything is in real time for full transparency and so that you can actually enter the same trades that I'm entering. Some trades only give us a few minutes to enter, which is why it's imperative that you follow me so that you don't miss out. Below are two ways that you can use the analysis that I publish daily:
1. You can integrate my analysis into your own analysis, for example by using it as a starting point, or as confirmation of your own TA, or to identify potential trades for yourself.
2. You follow the trade setups and trade entry signals that I give in real time.

TRADE SETUPS
Below are the potential trade setups that I would be interested in trading. Regardless of the path that the price takes, I will be monitoring the market for a valid trade entry signal.
Long Trade Setup #1: Retest and Continuation (61.8Fib)
To open a long position, we are waiting for price to retrace down to test the 61.8Fib and then continue moving up.
Trade Entry Confirmation:
1. Price Action: Price needs to move back down to the 61.8Fib @ $34.1K and bounce back up.
2. Candlestick Pattern: A bullish candlestick pattern
3. Volume: Above average volume on entry candle
4. MACD: MACD histogram bottoming out
Short Trade Setup #1: Retest and Continuation (61.8Fib)
To open a short position, we are waiting for price to retrace up to test the 61.8Fib and then continue moving down.
Trade Entry Confirmation:
1. Price Action: Price needs to move back up to the 61.8Fib @ $37.9 and bounce back down.
2. Candlestick Pattern: A bearish candlestick pattern
3. Volume: Above average volume on entry candle
4. MACD: MACD histogram topping out
Bitcoin is moving in a rising wedge patternThe question for me was, why did Bitcoin stop now?
I came across this pattern when analyzing the weekly chart on a logarithmic scale
Bitcoin is moving in a rising wedge pattern.
If Bitcoin can break the pattern and get a reaction from it, it will rise to 5.618 fib
otherwise it will probably fall to 1.618 Fib
