Bitcoin Hits $40,000, It Will Recover —Name Your AltcoinSorry, there is a typo there on the title, I meant to say: Bitcoin hits $114,000, soon to recover. As you can see from our trading range, Bitcoin just went beyond the lower boundary and hit a new low, the lowest since 10-July but there is good news. There isn't room for prices to move much lower, this is part of the consolidation phase. The first low happened 25-July and notice the high (bear) volume. The second low happens today and we have lower volume compared to 25-July, but Bitcoin hit a lower low. This reveals that the bearish move is already weak and losing force. It also reveals the fact that Bitcoin is about to recover. Also notice the RSI, 2H. It hit oversold recently and went the lowest in a long while. Reversals tend to happen when the RSI becomes oversold. Bitcoin is testing the lower boundary of the trading range, when this happens, the action reverses and moves back up. Prepare to see Bitcoin back above $120,000. It is normal and it will happen... But it is wise to give the market a few days. 5-August was bad last year. It gets bad but it also marks the bottom. Once the bottom is hit, growth long-term. — Name Your Altcoin Leave a comment with the altcoins you are holding now and I will do an analysis for you. The altcoins will also recover and we are witnessing just a small retrace. Hold strong as this is the most important part. We will have a very strong new bullish wave develop within days. As Bitcoin moves to test support, it will reverse to test resistance next. Which one is your top altcoins choice? Thank you for reading. Namaste.

GOLD → The market is waiting for NFP. What could happen?FX:XAUUSD is bouncing off resistance at 3310, confirming the upper limit of the new trading range. The dollar continues to rally, but the market as a whole is stagnating ahead of upcoming news—NFP is coming up! Gold is consolidating at monthly lows around $3268, awaiting key US labor market data (NFP). Trump's new tariffs (10% globally, 35% for Canada, 39% for Switzerland) have boosted demand for the dollar, putting pressure on gold. Markets are waiting for NFP: forecast +110K jobs, unemployment 4.2%. Weak data (<100K) → gold may rise to $3400. Strong (>150K) → the dollar will strengthen, gold will continue to fall. The probability of a Fed rate cut in September is <50%. Based on yesterday's data, I would cautiously suggest that NFP will be in the range of 125K–145K, slightly above the consensus (110K). This will play into Trump's hands (I think you understand what I mean...). Resistance levels: 3300, 3310, 3320 Support levels: 3287, 3268, 3255 The news has a negative nuance — unpredictability. Be careful. Technically, based on the data we have at the moment, I would assume that the market may test resistance at 3300-3310 before a possible pullback to the specified support. BUT! Unpredictable data could turn the game around, and in that case, if the dollar falls, gold could start to rise. Best regards, R. Linda!

Chart Patterns - How to read them like a ProChart patterns are visual formations on price charts that help traders anticipate potential market movements. These patterns fall into three main categories: bullish , bearish , and indecisive . --- 1. Bullish Chart Patterns Bullish patterns often signal that price is likely to move upward. 1.1 Bull Flag * What it looks like: A sharp upward move followed by a small downward-sloping rectangle (the flag). * Meaning: After a strong rally, the price consolidates briefly before continuing higher. * Key insight: A breakout above the flag typically signals a continuation of the trend. 1.2 Pennant (Bullish) * What it looks like: A strong upward move followed by a small symmetrical triangle. * Meaning: Similar to the bull flag, but the consolidation takes a triangular form. * Key insight: Once price breaks above the pennant, the uptrend often resumes. 1.3 Cup & Handle * What it looks like: A “U”-shaped curve (the cup) followed by a small downward drift (the handle). * Meaning: This pattern suggests a period of accumulation before price breaks higher. * Key insight: A breakout above the handle signals the beginning of a new bullish leg. 1.4 Inverse Head & Shoulders * What it looks like: Three low points, with the middle low being the deepest. * Meaning: This reversal pattern appears after a downtrend and signals a potential change to an uptrend. * Key insight: A breakout above the “neckline” confirms the reversal. --- 2. Indecisive Chart Patterns These patterns show market hesitation, where neither bulls nor bears are clearly in control. 2.1 Consolidation Channel * What it looks like: Price moves within a horizontal channel. * Meaning: Market is moving sideways with no strong trend. * Key insight: A breakout in either direction often leads to a significant move. 2.2 Symmetrical Triangle * What it looks like: Two converging trend lines forming a triangle. * Meaning: This is a neutral pattern that can break out in either direction. * Key insight: Traders wait for a breakout before taking a position. --- 3. Bearish Chart Patterns Bearish patterns signal a high probability of downward price movement. 3.1 Bear Flag * What it looks like: A sharp decline followed by a small upward-sloping rectangle. * Meaning: After a strong drop, price consolidates before continuing lower. * Key insight: A breakout below the flag suggests a continuation of the downtrend. 3.2 Pennant (Bearish) * What it looks like: A sharp downward move followed by a small symmetrical triangle. * Meaning: Similar to the bear flag, but the consolidation takes a triangular form. * Key insight: A breakout downward typically resumes the bearish trend. 3.3 Inverse Cup & Handle * What it looks like: An upside-down cup with a small upward drift forming the handle. * Meaning: Indicates weakness after an uptrend, often followed by a drop. * Key insight: A break below the handle usually signals a strong bearish move. 3.4 Head & Shoulders * What it looks like: Three peaks, with the middle one being the highest. * Meaning: A classic reversal pattern that indicates a potential shift from an uptrend to a downtrend. * Key insight: A break below the “neckline” confirms the bearish reversal. --- How to Use These Patterns * Combine pattern recognition with support/resistance, volume, and indicators for stronger confirmation. * Always wait for breakouts and avoid acting too early. * Manage risk with stop-loss orders.

XAU/USD | Next Key Zone: Watch for Rejection at $3334! (READ)By analyzing the gold chart on the 4-hour timeframe, we can see that, just as expected, the price dropped from $3310 to $3288 in the first leg, where it hit a demand zone and bounced up to $3305, delivering a 170-pip rally. The main bearish move from $3333 to $3288 yielded 450 pips, bringing the total return on this analysis to over 620 pips! In the second phase, gold dropped sharply again to $3268, and once more found demand, currently trading around $3307. If the price holds above $3294, we could expect further upside toward the $3322–$3334 zone. Once gold reaches this area, a strong bearish rejection is likely, with a potential return of 250 to 400 pips. All key supply and demand levels are marked on the chart — make sure to monitor them closely and study the chart in detail. Hope you’ve made the most of this powerful analysis!

Inside a Candle: How to Read Hidden Order Flow Without a DOM Difficulty: 🐳🐳🐳🐋🐋 (Intermediate+) This article is for traders who want to understand the “story” behind a candle’s shape — and learn to spot aggressive buying/selling, absorption, and traps without needing footprint or order book tools. 🔵 INTRODUCTION Most traders see candles as static shapes — green or red, big or small. But each candle is a battlefield of orders . Even without access to a DOM or volume footprint, you can still extract valuable information from just the candle's body, wick, and context . 🔵 ORIGINS: WHERE CANDLESTICKS COME FROM Candlestick charts trace back to 18th-century Japan, where rice traders needed a way to visualize price movements over time. A legendary trader named Munehisa Homma , who traded rice futures in Osaka, is credited with developing the earliest form of candlestick analysis. Homma discovered that price wasn’t just driven by supply and demand — but also by trader psychology . He created visual representations of market sentiment by tracking: The opening and closing price of rice The highest and lowest price reached during the session This system became known as the “Sakata rules,” and it laid the foundation for many patterns still used today — such as Doji, Engulfing, and Marubozu. Western traders only began using candlesticks widely in the 1990s, when analyst Steve Nison introduced them to the broader financial world through his book Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques. Today, candlesticks remain one of the most powerful and intuitive ways to visualize order flow, momentum, and market psychology — even without a Depth of Market (DOM) or depth of book. In this article, you’ll learn how to read hidden order flow by analyzing: Wick length and positioning Body-to-range ratios Candle clustering and sequences 🔵 HOW A CANDLE FORMS Before you can read a candle, you need to understand how it comes to life . A single candle represents the full auction process during its time window. Here’s how it builds, step by step: Candle opens — this is the open price . As price moves up during the session → the high] updates. As price moves down → the low] updates. The final traded price when the time closes → this becomes the close price . The wick = price areas that were tested but rejected The body = where the majority of aggressive trades occurred If buyers push price up quickly but sellers slam it down before the close — the candle will have a long upper wick and close near the open, revealing seller absorption. Understanding this flow helps you recognize traps, fakeouts, and reversals in real time. 🔵 CANDLE BODY: WHO'S IN CONTROL The body of the candle reflects the result of the battle between buyers and sellers. A wide body with minimal wicks means dominance and commitment. Big body, small wick → clear conviction In an uptrend: buyer aggression In a downtrend: panic or aggressive selling Small body, long wicks → indecision, absorption, or trap Often appears near tops/bottoms Indicates both sides were active but neither won clearly www.tradingview.com 🔵 WICKS: THE SHADOWS OF REJECTION Wicks are not just “leftovers” — they show where price was rejected after being tested. Long upper wick = seller presence or absorption at highs Long lower wick = buyer defense or trap spring Double wick = liquidity sweep / false breakout Use wick direction to spot: Failed breakouts Smart money traps Exhaustion candles 🔵 HIDDEN ORDER FLOW PATTERNS 1️⃣ Absorption Candle A large wick with little movement afterward — shows that big orders absorbed market pressure. 2️⃣ Trap Candle A candle that sweeps above/below a key high/low and closes opposite — classic smart money fakeout. 3️⃣ Imbalance Candle Large-bodied candle that closes near the high/low with no wick on the other end — implies one-sided aggression (and often leaves an imbalance). 🔵 CLUSTERING & SEQUENCES MATTER Never read a candle alone. The sequence of candles tells the full story: 3+ rejection wicks near resistance? Liquidity building before breakout or trap Bearish engulfing after long upper wick = smart money selling into retail buying Tight-range dojis + volume spike = compression before expansion Context + volume + structure = hidden flow decoded. 🔵 PUTTING IT TOGETHER: A REAL EXAMPLE Price breaks above previous high Candle closes with long upper wick and smaller body Next candle opens, dumps fast, leaving imbalance behind Buyers trapped — move likely to continue down This is how you read order flow from candle anatomy . 🔵 TIPS FOR MASTERY Use a lower timeframe (1M–5M) to see microstructure Watch how wicks behave near S/R or OBs Confirm with volume spikes or delta-style indicators Use replay mode to slow down the story and study cause/effect 🔵 CONCLUSION Every candle is a message. You don’t need expensive tools to read order flow — just your eyes, context, and curiosity. Learn to see candles not as symbols, but as evidence of behavior . Absorption, imbalance, and traps are all visible if you look closely.

GBPUSD: Overextended move meets with supportAfter a steep and aggressive sell-off, price has tapped into a clear zone. This recent move wasn't gradual: it was impulsive and sharp, which tells us one key thing: exhaustion is likely. The overextension into it without any meaningful pullback typically highlights imbalance, where price moves ahead of structure and becomes vulnerable to correction. But price doesn’t move in straight lines forever. Markets that fall too quickly tend to burn out just as fast. When such aggressive pushes meet with a clean, resistance like this one, they often trigger the exact opposite, a snapback correction. I am now watching for signs of absorption and accumulation. This could play out in the form of sideways candles, wick rejections, or a sudden reversal spike. These are early signs that smart money might be stepping in. My projected target would be toward the 1.33700 area, from the last impulsive drop. It’s a classic mean reversion setup, not just technical but psychological. Traders who chased the move late may find themselves trapped, fueling the correction as they’re forced to exit.

HelenP. I Euro will rebound from trend line to $1.1600 pointsHi folks today I'm prepared for you Euro analytics. A structural review of the chart shows a clear change in market character. The previous long-term upward channel has been broken, and the price has since entered a corrective phase, currently guided by a descending trend line. This decline has brought the asset towards a critical area of interest: the major horizontal support zone between 1.1400 and 1.1360. My analysis for a long, counter-trend position is based on the potential for a strong bullish reaction from the confluence of this historical support zone and the descending trend line. I believe that as the price reaches this intersection, the current selling momentum is likely to be absorbed by significant underlying demand. The main condition for this scenario is a clear and forceful rejection of lower prices from this zone, which would signal that buyers are stepping in to defend this critical level. A confirmed bounce would likely initiate a significant relief rally, and therefore, the primary goal for this move is set at the 1.1600 level, a logical first target for a corrective bounce of this nature.

MRVL Massive 15-Years Symmetrical Breakout Targets AheadMarvell Technology (MRVL) has just completed a monumental breakout from a 15-years symmetrical triangle, a rare and powerful long-term accumulation structure. This type of macro consolidation typically precedes a major directional expansion, and in this case, the breakout confirmed bullish continuation. Currently, MRVL is forming a rising channel structure, with price bouncing cleanly from the lower boundary confirming demand and the continuation phase of the macro move. The 1:1 projection from the symmetrical triangle gives us a clear target trajectory, with the final leg potentially extending to $229, aligning perfectly with the upper boundary of the rising channel. In the short to mid-term, the ideal buyback opportunity rests near $67.50, should the market retest previous breakout support or the lower boundary of the channel once more. This zone offers asymmetric risk-to-reward potential for long-term investors and swing traders alike. Key Targets 📈 $67.50 – Buyback Opportunity Zone 📈 $229 – Rising Channel Top / 1:1 Expansion Target A breakout this large is no coincidence, it’s backed by years of price compression and institutional positioning. Now is the time to watch closely. 📩 Drop your view in the comments and share your stock requests for quick analysis. Only stock assets will be accepted under this post.

GOLD - Price can fall to support level and then start to riseHi guys, this is my overview for XAUUSD, feel free to check it and write your feedback in comments👊 The price was consolidating for an extended period inside a wide, horizontal range. A strong bullish impulse eventually broke the price out above the resistance of that flat channel. This breakout move created a new significant high before sellers forcefully rejected the price downwards. This rejection marked the beginning of the current falling wedge pattern, which has guided the price lower since. The decline within the wedge has now brought the asset down to a critical historical support zone at $3285. I expect that this key support will hold, causing a reversal and a new rally that targets the $3345 If this post is useful to you, you can support me with like/boost and advice in comments❤️ Disclaimer: As part of ThinkMarkets’ Influencer Program, I am sponsored to share and publish their charts in my analysis.

BITCOIN - Price can turn around and start to move upHi guys, this is my overview for BTCUSD, feel free to check it and write your feedback in comments👊 The price reversed its prior downtrend with a decisive breakout from a falling channel. This breakout triggered a strong upward impulse, which then began to consolidate into a large symmetrical pennant. However, the price recently failed to hold the lower support trendline of this pennant and broke to the downside. The asset is currently trading just below this broken trendline, in what appears to be a liquidity grab. To continue upwards, buyers must now overcome the immediate resistance located at the $116300 level. I expect that this breakdown was a fakeout, and the price will soon reverse, break through the $116300 resistance, and continue its rally toward the $121000 target.

GOLD → Retest of resistance within a bearish runFX:XAUUSD breaks through the upward trend support amid a rallying dollar. Since the opening of the session, the price has been testing the zone of interest, but bears are quite aggressive... Gold is partially recovering after falling to $3,268, a monthly low caused by the Fed's hawkish tone. The Central Bank kept its rate at 4.25–4.5% (9 votes to 2), highlighting uncertainty due to Trump's tariffs. Markets now estimate the probability of the rate remaining unchanged in September at 58% (previously 35%). The dollar's rise slowed amid concerns about the extension of the US-China trade truce and profit-taking ahead of key US employment data (after strong ADP and GDP reports). The nearest drivers are labor market statistics and trade news, while the technical picture for gold remains bearish. Technically, on D1, the price is breaking key support zones, including the trend line, which overall only increases selling pressure on the metals market... Resistance levels: 3310, 3320, 3334 Support levels: 3287, 3267, 3255 As part of the correction, the price has exhausted the entire daily ATR, forming a retest of the liquidity and interest zone. If the bears keep the price below 3320-3310, gold may head towards support... Best regards, R. Linda!

Euro bounce from buyer zone and start to move upHello traders, I want share with you my opinion about Euro. After a prolonged upward trend which formed a large rising wedge, the EURUSD faced a significant rejection from the seller zone near the 1.1685 resistance level. This failure to continue higher marked a key turning point, exhausting the bullish momentum and initiating a new bearish market phase. This new phase has since taken the form of a well-defined downward channel, within which the price has been undergoing a series of downward corrections and impulses. The most recent market action has been a sharp downward fall, accelerating the price's descent towards a critical area of historical significance. Currently, the pair is approaching the major support level at 1.1400, which also constitutes a strong buyer zone where demand has previously stepped in. The primary working hypothesis is a long, counter-trend scenario, which anticipates that the current bearish momentum will be absorbed by the strong demand within this buyer zone. A confirmed and strong rebound from this 1.1400 support area would signal a potential temporary bottom and the start of a significant upward correction. Therefore, the tp for this rebound is logically set at the 1.1600 level, a key psychological and technical point that represents a realistic first objective for a bounce of this nature.
