FLAG

Learn To Trade Breakout/Flags More Efficiently - Part IIn my first tutorial, I tried to show how price channels can be used to identify and validate strong trade setups. Additionally, I attempted to show you how to identify better trade setups from what I consider invalid trade setups. Understanding and maintaining at least a 2:1 Reward-to-risk factor for any trade you consider taking is essential. Secondly, it is essential to understand and use proper allocation levels for trades. The simple way to understand allocation levels is to focus on the RISK amount. If your trade risks $5 per share and you can't afford to risk $500 on this trade, then you should NOT attempt to trade 100 shares of this stock. Set your risk level based on how much you intend to risk for the trade - nothing more. If you can only risk $250, then you would only trade 50 shares. If you can only risk $125, then you would only trade 25 shares. Learning to find and identify proper trade setups on Daily and Weekly charts is critical for success in the long run. I firmly believe price tells us everything we need to know about a chart, and indicators reflect price. As you continue to learn some of the techniques I use in various price chart setups, I hope you can refine your techniques to become better traders. I will likely create a PART II and PART III version of these types of advanced trade setups. Hope you enjoy.

🔄 Repeating Patterns in Bitcoin📊 Familiar Patterns: If you've been following the crypto markets for a while, you've likely noticed that Bitcoin often moves in repetitive patterns. One such pattern that's caught the attention of many traders is the bullish flag or pennant formation. 🚩 The Bullish Flag: The bullish flag is a technical analysis pattern characterized by a sharp, upward price movement (the flagpole) followed by a consolidation period (the flag) before another potential upward surge. It's a pattern that's been seen multiple times in Bitcoin's price history. 📜 A Historical Glimpse: Bitcoin has a knack for revisiting patterns from its past. In the world of technical analysis, the idea that history repeats itself isn't uncommon. So, when we see patterns like bullish flags emerging once more, it piques the interest of traders and investors. 🚀 Potential Implications: If Bitcoin is indeed following a pattern reminiscent of its previous bullish runs, it could suggest the possibility of another significant price rally in the near future. However, it's crucial to remember that patterns are not guarantees, and market conditions can change. 🔍 Keeping a Watchful Eye: Traders and investors are keeping a close watch on these patterns, using them as one of many tools for decision-making. It's a reminder of the importance of comprehensive analysis and staying adaptable in the ever-evolving world of crypto. 💡 The Takeaway: While patterns can provide valuable insights, they should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis and information.

Bearish and Bullish Flag Chart PatternsFlag Pattern: A flag is a chart pattern formed during a counter-trend move after a sharp price movement. Why is it called Flag? It is named because of the way it reminds the viewer of a flag on a flagpole. What does the Flag Pattern represent? It signifies trend reversals or breakouts after a period of consolidation. The five main characteristics of a Flag Pattern are: 1. The preceding trend 2. The consolidation channel 3. The volume pattern 4. A breakout 5. A confirmation occurs when the price moves in the same direction as the breakout. How to identify the Flag Pattern: The most important part of the flag pattern is to identify a strong trend (in either direction, as the flag may be inverted, triggering a bearish move!). Take a look at the higher time frames when you find a flag pole to ensure the price is not simply ranging. It could be meeting a large area of resistance! Bullish Flag Pattern: When the prices are in an uptrend, a bullish flag pattern shows a slow consolidation lower after an aggressive uptrend. This indicates that there is more buying pressure moving the prices up than down and indicates that the momentum will continue in an uptrend. Traders wait for the price to break above the resistance of the consolidation after this pattern is formed to enter a long position. The breakout indicates that the prior uptrend will continue. Example of a Bullish Flag Pattern: Bearish Flag Pattern: When the prices are in a downtrend, a bearish flag pattern shows a slow consolidation higher after an aggressive downtrend. This indicates that there is more selling pressure moving the prices down than up and indicates that the momentum will continue in a downtrend. Traders wait for the price to break below the support of the consolidation after this pattern is formed to enter a short position. Example of a Bearish Flag Pattern: Conclusion: A flag pattern is a type of chart continuation pattern that shows candlesticks contained in a small parallelogram. When the prices are in an uptrend, a bullish pattern shows a slow consolidation lower after an aggressive uptrend. When the prices are in a downtrend, a bearish pattern shows a slow consolidation higher after an aggressive downtrend. It is formed when there is an increase in demand or supply that causes the prices to move up or down. May you all be PROFITABLE,

GOLD → Support retest indicates buyer weakness OANDA:XAUUSD has weak buying power at the moment. There is no update of local highs, the price is returning to the support retest. The probability of support breakdown is increasing On the daily timeframe the price tried to test the strong resistance 1939, a false breakdown is formed and consolidation below the level. After this phase we saw a local distribution and another retest of the downtrend support. The price is testing another support at 1935.8, consolidation below the level will create a bearish potential and in the short term the price may form an impulse to 1927. Support levels: trend support, 1935.8, 1927.5. Resistance levels: 1943.3, 1954. The probability that the support breakout will be true at this point is very high, the above described prerequisites for why the bulls are weak. On these bases, I am prioritizing a decline Regards R. Linda!

Dlink has given a strong breakout!As seen in the chart, Dlink has formed a flag and pole which was broken 2 days back. The flag is a beautiful cup and handle pattern which justifies strength. This is an exceptionally good chart for a positional trade to buy on dips till 300 with an SL of 260. A swing trade is risky at CMP with SL of below 290 DCB. Targets can be 370, 400 and above.
