Forextrading
Weekly chart The daily improvement in the Greenback motivates Gold prices to give away part of the weekly strong advance and slip back to the vicinity of the $2,700 region per troy ounce at the end of the week.
The short-term technical outlook for Gold price continues to favor of Gold buyers as the previous week’s symmetrical triangle breakout remains in play and the yellow metal holds well above all the major daily simple moving averages (SMA).
Gold price eyes acceptance above the key static resistance at $2,726 to extend the uptrend toward the $2,750 psychological barrier. The next target is aligned at the record high of $2,790.
If the correction unfolds, Gold price will find initial demand at the previous day’s low of $2,690, below which the January 15 low of $2,670 will be tested.

CAD/JPY Rising Channel Breakdown Looms Bears in Play !Rising Channel Formation
The price is trading within a rising channel, indicating a potential bullish continuation or a reversal depending on how the price reacts near the channel's boundaries.
The upper boundary of the channel acted as resistance, where a rejection occurred, leading to a short setup.
Golden Pocket Zone
Around the 108.660–108.491 level, a "Golden Pocket Zone" is marked, indicating an area of potential caution due to increased market indecision.
This zone aligns with Fibonacci retracement levels or historical pivot points.
Support Levels
A Good Trading Zone is identified between 107.248–106.780, which represents a potential support area for price reversal or consolidation.
Wicks Pivotal Point near 105.851–105.817 serves as a critical demand zone where significant buying interest might reemerge.
Short Position Setup
Entry Signal: A Sell signal was triggered near the channel's resistance line, supported by a failure to break higher. The price also exhibited a rejection at a critical resistance level within the Golden Pocket Zone.
Profit Levels
The Peak Profit 0.22% label indicates a modest gain so far, suggesting a potential continuation if the price breaks below the channel support.
A prior Peak Profit 2.96% was achieved on a similar short setup from a lower level, confirming the bearish potential within the structure.
Target Levels
First target: 107.248, aligning with the Good Trading Zone.
Second target: 106.780, which is the bottom of the Trading Zone.
Extended target: 105.851, Wicks Pivotal Point, for a more aggressive short.
Stop-Loss Placement
A stop-loss should be positioned above the Golden Pocket Zone (around 109.000) to protect against false breakouts or unexpected bullish momentum.
Technical Patterns and Indicators
Rejection Candlesticks
The price formed bearish rejection candles near the channel's upper boundary and the Golden Pocket Zone, indicating strong selling pressure.
Trendline Confluence
The lower boundary of the channel intersects with the 107.248 level, adding confluence for a possible bounce or further breakdown.
Momentum Analysis
The price appears to lose upward momentum after several failed attempts to make a higher high, suggesting sellers are gaining control.
This short position aligns with the current market structure, leveraging resistance levels, a rejection from the upper trendline, and bearish momentum. However, traders should exercise caution near the identified support zones and adjust stop-loss levels based on intraday volatility. A clear break below the Good Trading Zone could open the door to extended downside potential toward the Wicks Pivotal Point.
NZDCAD: Consolidation Continues 🇳🇿🇨🇦
NZDCAD is currently consolidating with a horizontal parallel channel.
We see a nice bearish reaction to its resistance:
the price formed a tiny double top pattern and started to fall.
Chances are high that the price will reach 0.804 level soon.
❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️
XAUUSDHello Traders! 👋
What are your thoughts on XAUUSD?

USDCHF: Best sell signal since May 2024.USDCHF is bullish on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 60.917, MACD = 0.006, ADX = 41.659) as it has been on a nonstop rally supported by the 1D MA50 since October 4th 2024. The wave has reached the top of the long term Rectangle pattern and almost the R1 level. Alast time it was there (May 1st 2024), it got heavily rejected. We expect at least a test of the S1 level (TP = 0.85550).

Why Most Traders Fail (And How I Turned It Around)I still remember my first trade like it was yesterday. I had no idea what I was doing, but I convinced myself I was going to crush it. Spoiler alert: I didn’t. In fact, I wiped out 20% of my account in less than an hour. I sat there staring at my screen, wondering what the hell just happened.
If you’ve been there, I get it. Trading isn’t easy—it’s brutal at times. The truth is, most traders fail not because they’re bad at it, but because they’re unprepared for what trading really demands.
I’ve made every mistake you can think of, but here’s the good news: I’ve also learned how to turn it around. This isn’t theory—it’s my story.
Lesson 1: Winging It Will Destroy You
When I started, I thought trading was just about picking the right stock or currency and riding the wave. I’d watch a few YouTube videos, scan some charts, and think, “Yeah, this looks good!” It wasn’t. I was basically gambling with my money.
What finally clicked:
-I needed a plan, plain and simple. One day, I sat down and wrote out what I’d do: what I’d trade, how I’d manage risk, and when I’d call it a day.
-The first time I actually stuck to my plan, I didn’t even win big. But for the first time, I felt in control, and that was everything.
Lesson 2: Risking It All = Losing It All
There was this one trade—I'll never forget it. I bet way more than I should’ve because I was sure I’d win. When it went south, I froze. I couldn’t bring myself to close it, and the losses just piled up. By the time I got out, half my account was gone.
What saved me:
-I learned to only risk a small percentage of my account—1-2% per trade. Yeah, it felt slow, but it kept me in the game.
-I started using stop losses religiously. No more crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.
Lesson 3: Emotions Are Your Worst Enemy
I used to get so caught up in the highs and lows. A big win would make me feel invincible. A big loss? Devastated. I’d jump into revenge trades, trying to get my money back, and just dig myself deeper.
What changed:
-I started journaling every trade—not just the numbers, but how I felt. I noticed patterns, like how I’d overtrade when I was frustrated.
-Now, if I feel off, I walk away. No charts, no trades, just a reset.
Lesson 4: Overtrading Was My Addiction
I thought trading more meant making more. So I’d take setups that were “meh” at best, just to feel like I was doing something.
What helped:
-I stopped looking for trades—I started waiting for them.
-Now, I focus on one or two great setups a day. The rest? I let them go.
Lesson 5: You Don’t Have to Know Everything
At one point, I was drowning in information. I had 15 indicators on my chart, followed 20 gurus on Twitter, and read every trading blog I could find. It was overwhelming, and it didn’t help.
My aha moment:
-Simplicity wins. I stripped my charts down to the basics: price action, support/resistance, and a couple of indicators I actually understood.
-I stopped chasing the “perfect” strategy and focused on mastering one approach.
You Can Do This
I’ll be honest—there were moments when I wanted to quit. Blowing up accounts, feeling like a failure, wondering if I was cut out for this... it was hard. But looking back, I’m glad I didn’t give up.
If you’re struggling, I get it. I’ve been in your shoes, and I know how overwhelming it can feel. Send me a DM or check out my profile —I’m here, happy to share what worked for me and help however I can.
Trading isn’t about being perfect. It’s about progress. So take a breath, refocus, and keep going. You’ve got this.

EURUSD: short term buy on the 1H MA50 in order.EURUSD is neutral on its 1H technical outlook (RSI = 48.015, MACD = 0.001, ADX = 25.709) as it pulled back to its 1H MA50 today but managed to find enough support to bounce even though it crossed it.

EURGBP Potential correctionThe EURGBP market recently tested the November high, creating a false breakout on the 4-hour timeframe after sweeping liquidity above the 0.84500 level. Following five consecutive bullish days, a retracement may be on the horizon. Despite the price continuing to register higher highs, a bearish divergence has emerged, signaling a potential loss of upward momentum.
With the market now testing the monthly high alongside this bearish divergence, a downward move from the resistance level and channel border appears likely. The key focus is on the support zone around 0.83710

Master Short-term Trading in Stock, Forex, and Crypto MarketsMaster Short-term Trading in Stock, Forex, and Crypto Markets
Short-term trading is a fast-paced approach that demands skill, strategy, and quick decision-making to capitalise on small price moves in financial markets like stocks, forex, and crypto. This article dives into advanced techniques, adaptive strategies, and psychological discipline needed to improve your trading edge.
Choosing the Right Market and Asset for Short-Term Trading
Short-term trading isn’t just about finding an opportunity; it’s about picking the right market and asset that aligns with your strategy, risk tolerance, and trading style. Different assets and markets move in unique ways, and understanding their traits can sharpen your trading decisions and improve your ability to identify favourable setups.
Stocks
When short-term trading stocks, movements often hinge on company-specific events like earnings reports, product launches, or even management changes. Ideal stocks for short-term trading typically include those in technology or high-growth sectors, which tend to show greater volatility and liquidity. However, specific stock trading hours limit opportunities (with after-hours trading often seeing lower volume), which can reduce flexibility compared to 24-hour markets like forex or crypto.
Forex
Known for its high liquidity and 24-hour trading cycle 5 days a week, the forex market offers ample short-term trading opportunities, particularly with major currency pairs like EUR/USD or GBP/USD. These pairs are heavily traded, leading to tighter spreads, which is essential for traders looking to make multiple trades in a single day. The forex market is also influenced by economic data releases and geopolitical events, making it a good match for traders who stay updated on global news and market sentiment.
Commodities
Trading commodities like gold, oil, and silver can add diversity to short-term trading. Commodities often see increased activity during times of economic uncertainty or when inflationary pressures are high. Precious metals like gold, for instance, are seen as so-called “safe havens,” attracting short-term traders during volatile market periods. Energy commodities, such as oil, also offer strong moves tied to supply and demand shifts, including geopolitical developments and inventory reports.
Cryptocurrencies
The crypto market stands out for its high volatility and 24/7 trading schedule. For those looking to trade for the short term in the crypto market, major coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum are common choices due to their frequent price swings, while smaller coins can offer higher-risk, high-reward short-term investment potential.
However, crypto’s high risk and rapid price swings mean that traders must carefully manage the size of their short-term investments and stay alert to sudden shifts in market sentiment, often driven by regulatory updates or large-scale adoption news.
Advanced Technical Analysis Techniques
For traders aiming to refine their short-term investing, advanced technical analysis techniques can provide the depth needed to make quick, informed decisions. These methods go beyond basic indicators, giving traders a closer look at price dynamics, market psychology, and trade volume to spot potential setups.
Price Action Analysis
Price action analysis focuses on interpreting price movements without relying heavily on indicators. Traders using this method look for specific patterns like “doji” and “engulfing” candlesticks to gauge market sentiment. Recognising these patterns, along with key levels such as support and resistance, can help trader time entries and exits by indicating when momentum may shift. Price action is especially useful in volatile markets, where traditional indicators may lag.
Volume Profile
Volume profile charts and indicators show the volume traded at each price level over a given period, helping traders identify where the most buying and selling is happening. This technique highlights “high-volume nodes,” or price points where large amounts of trading occur, indicating levels where the price might stall or reverse. By using volume profiles, traders can spot areas of consolidation or breakout zones, refining their trade entries or exits based on market interest.

Dow Theory
Dow Theory is a market analysis framework that asserts markets move in trends, with each trend consisting of primary, secondary, and minor waves. Short-term traders often focus on secondary trends (lasting days to weeks) to align their trades with market direction. By recognising the phases of accumulation, public participation, and distribution, traders can better understand the market’s larger direction and time their entries.
Wyckoff Theory
Wyckoff Theory can be used by short-term traders for recognising and capitalising on repeatable market patterns driven by supply and demand. Through Wyckoff’s approach to price and volume analysis, traders can identify phases, which signal potential reversals or continuation trends. This allows short-term traders to time entries and exits more accurately based on market structure. Additionally, Wyckoff’s emphasis on liquidity and the role of large institutional players helps traders anticipate price movements, enabling them to make informed decisions in volatile, fast-moving markets.
Elliott Wave Theory
Elliott Wave Theory proposes that markets move in repetitive waves influenced by crowd psychology. For short-term traders, identifying the five-wave impulse or corrective patterns can provide context on where the market may be within a larger cycle. This analysis can assist in timing trades by aligning with the anticipated movement within a wave sequence.
Developing a Flexible, Adaptive Strategy
In fast-paced markets, adaptable short-term trading strategies are key for traders who want to thrive in varying conditions. A flexible approach enables traders to pivot based on volatility, volume, and market sentiment without rigidly sticking to one strategy.
Scalping vs Day Trading
Scalping and day trading both offer short-term opportunities, but each thrives in distinct conditions. Scalping—executing numerous quick trades for small gains—is potentially effective in high-volatility environments with tight spreads, like forex or certain tech stocks. Day trading, on the other hand, takes advantage of slightly longer holding times within a single day, allowing traders to capitalise on more substantial moves. Knowing when to switch between these approaches keeps traders prepared.
Timeframe Adjustments
Adapting timeframes based on volatility can improve timing. For example, traders might use 1-minute charts during high volatility and 5- or 15-minute charts when the market is steadier, allowing them to focus on potentially more reliable setups without overreacting to noise.
Continuous Backtesting and Refinement
An adaptive strategy relies on ongoing backtesting to identify what works in current conditions. Live adaptation is also essential—strategies might need adjustments in real time based on changing market sentiment or unexpected events. Keeping strategies flexible and adjusting as data changes help traders stay aligned with the market’s rhythm.
Advanced Risk Management Techniques
Effective risk management goes beyond setting a simple stop loss. For advanced traders, techniques like dynamic position sizing, trailing stops, and a nuanced grasp of win rate and risk-reward ratios are essential to navigating volatile markets.
Dynamic Position Sizing
Adjusting position sizes based on current market conditions allows traders to respond to volatility without overexposing their capital. For instance, in highly volatile sessions, traders may reduce position sizes to limit exposure, while in low volatility periods, they might increase them to capture larger potential gains.
Trailing Stops
Trailing stops protect potential gains while letting trades run. As the market moves favourably, a trailing stop gradually locks in gains, automatically adjusting to reduce risk if the trend reverses. This is especially useful for fast-paced assets where trends can shift quickly, helping traders maximise trade effectiveness without manually adjusting their exits.
Win Rate and Risk-Reward Balance
A high win rate isn’t always the goal; balancing it with a good risk-reward ratio is often more sustainable. For example, a trader with a 40% win rate might still see strong potential returns if their average risk-reward is 1:3.
Psychological Discipline and Strategy Execution
Mastering short-term trading requires more than technical skill—it’s about controlling emotions and staying disciplined under pressure. Even with a solid strategy, emotional biases like fear and greed can cloud judgement and lead to impulsive decisions.
Avoiding Overtrading
Overtrading often stems from frustration or the “fear of missing out.” Identifying decent shares to buy for the short term can be exciting, but it’s essential to set clear limits on daily trades. By focusing on quality setups over quantity, traders can prevent hasty, low-probability trades that erode potential gains.
Sticking to the Plan
A pre-set strategy is only as good as its execution. Traders can strengthen discipline by following structured routines—such as starting each session with a plan, reviewing recent trades, and assessing market conditions. Journaling each trade, including the reasoning and emotions behind it, helps reinforce the commitment to the strategy.
Routine and Mindfulness
Building a consistent daily routine, from meditation to pre-market preparation, can help reduce emotional swings and keep a trader’s focus sharp. Practising mindfulness helps traders stay centred, making it easier to manage emotions, avoid unplanned trades, and stay aligned with their strategic goals.
The Bottom Line
Skills like advanced analysis, adaptable strategies, and emotional discipline are essential to navigate stocks, forex, and cryptocurrency markets effectively. With the right tools and techniques, traders can make agile decisions in fast-moving markets. For those ready to take their trading further, opening an FXOpen account offers access to four robust trading platforms, competitive spreads, and fast execution speeds—ideal for short-term trading.
FAQ
What Is Short-Term Trading?
Short-term trading involves buying and selling financial assets over low timeframes, typically ranging from minutes to hours. Traders aim to capitalise on rapid price movements rather than holding positions long-term.
How Do Short-Term Traders Make Money?
Short-term traders aim to take advantage of small price changes by timing their trades based on market trends, technical analysis, or key events. They base their strategies on quick decision-making, effective risk management, and sometimes high-frequency trading.
How to Pick Good Stocks for the Short-Term?
To find short-term stocks, traders look for stocks with high liquidity and volatility, as these are more likely to see meaningful price swings. Many traders focus on stocks to buy for the short term that offer recent/upcoming news or earnings reports, which tend to drive price momentum.
Which Crypto to Buy for the Short-Term?
High-liquidity cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are popular for short-term trades due to frequent price fluctuations. However, smaller coins can also offer opportunities, but these often carry higher risks due to their volatility.
Can You Make a Living From Short-Term Trading?
Yes, but it’s challenging. Short-term trading requires a strong strategy, deep market knowledge, and emotional discipline. Many traders supplement their income with other sources, as consistent gains can be difficult to achieve.
