PARA: bounce play at pretty big supportPARA (Paramount)
Take the weekly chart, connect the lows since 2009 and you get a nice trend line .
Price seems to react to this area so the risk reward is quiet good here for a long swing trade .
The trend line is your support.
16 is your stop.
I'm targeting 19.40 and 20.71, then we reevaluate.
For those who want to invest for the long term, PARA offers a generous dividend.
Trade safe!
Bounce
AMZN: Waiting for a Juicy Little BouncePrimary Chart: AMZN's Primary Downtrend with Parallel Channel, Daily 8 and 21 EMAs, Fibonacci Levels
Summary:
1. SquishTrade's longer-term view is bearish. In the short-term, prices could bounce to retrace the first wave of decline from the November 15 high at $103.79.
2. Short-term bounce targets are $100. After the bounce reverses lower, downside price targets are $78-$82.
3. The existence of a primary downtrend suggests probabilities favor more weakness ahead despite any bounces that may occur into early December or year end. But the existence of a secular uptrend suggests that prices could behave in a more complex manner, whipsawing around the secular uptrend, or even surprising to the upside for a while given the length, and therefore strength, of this very long term trendline. So be ready for anything.
4. Reacting with flexibility to the levels and the technical patterns is a better approach than blindly relying on a forecast, even if the forecast is well reasoned, and even if it was produced by some sort of expert.
SquishTrade is waiting for a juicy little bounce in AMZN. That bounce may help determine whether the corrective rally off the YTD lows is finished.
At the outset, SquishTrade holds a longer-term bearish view on AMZN. Please see the technical basis for this bearish view in the chart and post below. This longer-term view is slightly complicated by the fact that the primary trend (over the past year) is on a collision course with a 25-year secular uptrend.
Supplementary Chart A
In the short-term, an imminent bounce looks possible. A falling wedge pattern, shown below in Supplementary Chart B, typically provides a bullish signal. But if it breaks bearishly, that would be more damaging and bearish, more surprising and unexpected, potentially causing a steeper than normal selloff. This is because the pattern catches market participants off guard by breaking in the opposite direction from what is expected.
Supplementary Chart B
To determine whether the corrective rally off the YTD low is finished, evaluate any near-term bounces and whether they remain below the November 15 peak at $103.79. Any short positions should be entered with key risk levels defined, and if a short were entered around $99-$102, the November 15 high at $103.79 might be an excellent invalidation point—depending of course on the risk tolearance, overall trading approach, and position size (position size is integrally related to the stop or invalidation level). Here is an intraday chart showing a hypothetical illustration showing one way this bounce could unfold as a short setup:
Supplementary Chart C
If the bounce reverses underneath the November 15 high and shows confirmation of the next leg down, then a reasonable target lies at the $78-$82 range. This is support at the lower edge of the parallel channel as well as an area with key Fibonacci projection targets and the 25-year secular uptrend (depending when exactly the next leg down occurs, as that 25-year trendline's slope causes the support level to rise over time).
If the bounce takes out the November 15 high at $103.79, however, then the corrective rally has not completed. In this case, the corrective bounce off the lows may have further to run before AMZN likely reverses back lower. If the November 15, 2022, highs are taken, consider the upper Fibonacci clusters (the higher yellow circle on the Primary Chart) where price may chose to reverse lower. This level is at $112-$113.
In short, SquishTrade favors AMZN to go lower to $78 to $82 within the next couple months. The main forecast is lower over time. The short-term forecast is potentially higher in a bounce first. The bounce could run to upper 90s or even $100 in one scenario. Or the bounce could run to key Fibonacci levels at $112-$113 if the so-called Santa Rally materializes in December 2022.
Bold predictions abound on social media for markets and stocks and cryptos. Many like to call the bottom repeatedly as prices continue to fall. Some like to call for much lower lows for years into the future. Both are possible, and it's possible no one is right if price just chops sideways for years.
And the reality is that no one can actually predict the future with any certainty. Technical analysis is about knowing the patterns, seeing the levels and reacting to the way price unfolds when it encounters and responds to these patterns / levels. It helps to remain open and flexible to any outcome rather than reliant on a third-party forecast regardless whether its well reasoned and supported by complex cycles or De-Mark signals, and regardless whether every single Elliott Wave has been carefully labeled.

Cypher near the 2.618 off Dec. Distr.Bullish cypher near the 2.618 downside extension from the December distribution. Eyeing bounce to 275-277 as a decision point.
Rejection from 275-277 would imply further downside, will re-evaluate there. Should see explosive upside to the 275-277 in coming weeks.
Minor accumulation around current level.

energy in a pickleno really, this thing is set to roar. big rigs, big pigs, young hogs and motor fog. letterr rrrrrrip! were down near the bottom of the envelope, were way oversold, and the sectir is acting defensively in rotation with a bear market. id like to revisit the top of this rectangle and then dump again 🤷
DOGE - Oversold - Small bounce possibleOn the DOGEUSD chart (1h timeframe), we can see the price is currently oversold. The price is reaching a support area. Once the price has entered the support area it's likely for the price to bounce back up.
All three indicators used are Bollinger Bands, RSI, and Stochastic. All three indicators confirm the oversold condition.
All further details are shown on the chart.
Good luck!
BTC: WEEKEND PUMP? NEXT POSSIBLE SCENARIO!!Hello everyone, if you like the idea, do not forget to support it with a like and follow.
Welcome to this quick BTC update. In my previous BTC update i clearly told you that BTC is not break above $18.2k level and we might see a rejection from there and exactly the same happened.
So what's next?
As of now, BTC holding the green support area ($16.5k-$16.8k) and we might see a bearish retest from here. According to the chart, BTC should bounce from here up to $17.2k-$17.3k level and after that again starts dumping.
So as of now I'm expecting a relief bounce in shorter time frame. In HTF, BTC still looks bad. Until and unless we did not get a weekly close above $18.5k thing not going good for us.
Let's see how things goes in the next few hours.

semiconductors daily bounce or continued downsidewe are at the low end of top anchored vwap. if we get over this pivot and support meaningfully we could see a test of sss moving average or signal around upper horizontal and gap close. if we remain beneath and resist with sss signal and qqe staying red id look for that lower horizontal.
ETH: MUST BOUNCE FROM HERE!!Hello everyone, if you like the idea, do not forget to support it with a like and follow.
Welcome to this quick ETH update.
ETH is breaking out from the falling wedge-like structure in 4hr time frame and currently, looks like a retest. We have a good support range here. ETH should bounce from here.
If it breaks down the support (4hr close below $1150) then this pattern becomes invalidated and we might revisit the lower trendline of the wedge ($1080) but IMO it should bounce from here.

Solana equalizer - cryptos to bounce? Lots of Indifference on the charts.”equalizer” on the daily. Last candle on the daily shows possibility of a bounce. Waiting on more confirmation and RSI move above 30 and oscillator to turn green. Will enter on lower timeframe

EUR/USD likely to move UP!Hey tradomaniacs,
technically a great chance to go long in EUR/USD after thgis aweful volatile day.
Good support and likely to hold due to falling yields (Non-Sense-Correltation) aswell as absoprtion at the support-zone in market-depth.
Gonan take a long with aggr. management as volatility is very risky today.
What do you think?
Bullish after SoS and RetestSPY has been accumulating at the expected bottom of a larger degree wave 4. This trajectory is a near term most likely path. Initial target low 400s, followed by one more pullback running to target range - upper range 419 by late November or early December
Mid term target by mid 2023 is a completion of larger degree wave 5 in the mid 500s.
We have a discount after yesterdays... thing
(SoS in the title means sign of strength)
** Buy once it breaks above 373.93 **
Financial recover soon?XLF which is an index of Financial Sector is currently retesting the top of 2007 (before Subprimes crisis) and the top of 2019 (before the Covid19 crisis).
Remember, a resistance often flip into a support when broken.
This may a very nice opportunity with a correct Risk/Reward ratio to play a bounce here.
