Head and Shoulders

Bitcoin doesn't want to go anywhere - here's whyOnce Bitcoin reached ~100k, it entered a period of sideways movement and seems reluctant to leave this range. This forms a solid base for a market that's gearing up for a strong move, one way or another. The price action is currently punishing both bulls and bears. Up to 103k, the picture was clear with higher highs and higher lows. But afterward, traders have been getting stopped out on both long and short positions. The first major TRAP occurred when the price fell below the neckline, causing bulls to close their positions, fearing a major drop. Bears, anticipating further decline, shorted the market. However, the price rebounded, closing out early bear positions at the first pain limit (marked on the chart). Just before the weekend, we witnessed another TRAP; the market again dipped below the neckline but then rallied. The second pain limit for short sellers is now evident. The current situation is intriguing; both bulls and bears might be getting weary, with the CMC Crypto Fear and Greed Index confirming a neutral stance. The market has been trading within a range for some time now. The longer this range persists, the more potent the breakout will be. The neckline has become the WAR FRONT LINE. It's hard to predict the winner, but the good news is it's easy to follow. When the market is above the neckline, bulls are in command (remember, bears are currently trapped!). Once the neckline breaks ($90-91k area), oh boy, bull's pants might be full of...

Total 3 Crypto Market Cap and US10YIn our ‘Daily dose of Chart’ today we are looking into Crypto and US10Y rates. We are plotting Total 3 Crypto market Cap vs US 10 Y. Total 3 Crypto Market Cap which is the sum of all the total Crypto market cap except BTC and ETH. The Total 3 was in a bearish pattern throughout 2022 and 2024 when the US10Y was making a head and shoulder pattern. After completing the head and shoulder pattern, the yields fell which gave Total 3 to break out of a 2 year base. But with the recent breakout in US10Y rates, the Total 3 is suffering a short term bearish market. We see a cup and handle forming on the weekly chart for the Total 3. But my assessment is that the handle formation will not complete until the beginning of Q2 2025 on the weekly chart. We will revisit the chart in April 2025.

Head & Shoulders trap on Soybean OilSoybean Oil has drawn a nice Head & Shoulders pattern. After breaking the neckline, the market should have fallen - but it did the opposite, it's rising. Now, short sellers are trapped, and the market is set to punish them. They have stop losses in obvious places - TARGET 1 is the minimum the market is going to hit. TARGET 2 is very probable in my opinion; long term, Soybean Oil is in an uptrend, and the H&S failure was the Bears' last breath.

Making Sense of BTCHopefully this is an easy to understand prediction of whats really going on - We have a H+S with the neck more or less around our current support at 91-92k. Market has been very dissonant and so formation of the left shoulder, the tops, all seem funny looking but as you can see the overall price action averages out to the lines drawn. The cup is even more of an approximation than the H+S, but if you try to fit it well the end of the cup usually always ends around 102-104k. Right now we are riding up the right shoulder and the top which I haven't spent too much time trying to figure out could maybe be anywhere from 97.7k to a little over 99k. The net money flow from now until the tip of the shoulder might really determine if the price will break low enough below the neckline to take us below 91k. If you don't want to see under 91K, I might suggest to avoid buying above 96k under all circumstances, unless it can break 102 with enough momentum to probably break 104k as well. Probably unlikely in the next few days. On the way down from the right shoulder if the price makes a strong rebound around the 93kish level with strong volume and also holds for at least a couple days it could be a bullish signal that the 91k support is moving up. Below 92k again would make me pretty bearish. If our runup right now doesnt take us back above 96k and instead stops and reverses from 96k, this setup is most likely invalidated and reversal at 96 might mean sideways consolidation between 91-98k for a while longer or perhaps something much more bearish. If you've contemplated such a scenario please do leave a comment or link below.

$NYSE:NRGV poised for a breakout with multiple Price TargetsThe global push towards a cleaner energy future is accelerating, but a significant piece to the puzzle remains: the intermittency of renewable energy sources like solar and wind. This challenge has fueled a market for energy storage solutions. Energy Vault ( NYSE:NRGV ) develops sustainable energy storage solutions designed to utility-scale energy storage for grid resiliency. The company's proprietary, gravity-based Energy Storage Technology and the Energy Storage Management and Integration Platform are intended to help utilities, independent power producers and large industrial energy users. The company recently announced a significant 1.0 GWh energy storage project in Australia, which was highlighted by the CEO in a recent interview with MarketBeat's Bridget Bennett. Energy Vault's most recent project serves as a testament to its unwavering commitment to global expansion, underscored by the recent recognition it received from TIME magazine as one of the Best Inventions of 2024 for its groundbreaking gravity energy storage technology. Analysis Looks like this is setting up to break the $2.56 resistance line. Observations: This appears to be ready to break out of multiple patterns, which will present multiple near term price targets $1 upside (~$4)... very close to the head and shoulders pattern PT of $3.80. Falling wedge pattern PT of $7.17 - Squeeze momentum is building and firing. - Current volume doesn't come close the the recent spike, but it is above the MA volume. Entry Point ~$2.60 (or above) - after a closing above the $2.56 resistance

Head and Shoulder Pattern Breakout in BANKNIFTYHead & Shoulder (H&S) pattern in the Bank Nifty Index on a daily timeframe. The H&S pattern is a reversal chart pattern indicating a potential bearish trend after an uptrend. Here's the detailed explanation: 1. Key Components of the Pattern: Left Shoulder: The first peak, formed after an uptrend, followed by a decline to the neckline (support). Head: The highest peak, formed after the left shoulder, followed by a decline back to the neckline. Right Shoulder: A peak lower than the head, formed after the neckline is tested again, signaling weakening upward momentum. 2. Neckline: The neckline acts as a support level that connects the lows between the left shoulder, head, and right shoulder. In this chart, the neckline is marked as a critical support level. 3. Entry and Targets: Entry Point: A short position is triggered once the price breaks below the neckline with strong bearish confirmation. Projected Targets: Target 1: 48,050 Target 2: 46,550 Final Target: 45,000 These targets are derived by projecting the height of the head from the neckline downward. 4. Stop Loss: The Stop Loss is placed above the recent high near 51,050, to minimize risk if the price reverses upward. Conclusion: The Bank Nifty chart demonstrates a classic Head & Shoulder pattern, indicating potential downside targets with well-defined entry, stop loss, and profit-taking levels. This pattern suggests caution for bullish traders and an opportunity for bearish traders if confirmed.

Bitcoin is at a critical point - Consider this very seriously!!Hey family! Welcome to the wild world of cryptocurrencies, where the market can swing from one extreme to another in the blink of an eye. Crypto trading is known for its high volatility, which means prices can go up or down dramatically in short periods. Right now, many traders are buzzing with excitement, expecting Bitcoin to go on a bullish run. However, in such a dynamic market, it's always wise to consider the other side of the coin. Given the current sentiment, there's a good chance we might see some bearish moves too. So, while we're all hoping for the best, let's keep our eyes open for potential dips and prepare accordingly. Let's dive into today's analysis with that in mind! Overview This report provides a detailed technical analysis of Bitcoin (BTC) against Tether (USDT), focusing on the Ichimoku Cloud and chart pattern formation in combination. Head and Shoulders Pattern Pattern Description: The chart shows a Head and Shoulders pattern, which is a bearish reversal pattern following an uptrend. It consists of three peaks: the left shoulder, the head, and the right shoulder. Identification on Chart: Left Shoulder : Formed around mid-November. Head : Formed in Mid December, peaking at approximately $108,000+. Right Shoulder: Currently forming as of Jan 10, 2025, with a peak slightly lower than the head formed on Jan 7th. Neckline : The neckline is drawn at the price level where the dips occur between these peaks and it is a wise choice to take the price zone as a whole in to consideration instead of just a specific price level. By this the neckline zone can be taken as between $89,800 & $92,400. A breakout below this level suggests a strong trend reversal. Ichimoku Cloud Analysis The Ichimoku Cloud, or Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, provides insights into support/resistance, momentum, and trend direction . Here's the breakdown: Kumo (Cloud): The cloud is formed by two lines, Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B, projected 26 periods into the future. Current Cloud: The price has recently broken below from the upper cloud support, which was acting as support, and heading to the bottom of the cloud. This breakout below the cloud is a bearish signal indicating potential further downside. Future Cloud : The future cloud (shaded area ahead) is sloping upwards, which traditionally would suggest bullish momentum, but given the current price action below the cloud and the reddish color it created, it might imply a false bullish signal or a potential resistance if the price attempts to recover. Tenkan-sen (Conversion Line) and Kijun-sen (Base Line): Tenkan-sen : This line (blue) is the average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 9 periods. It's currently below the Kijun-sen, reinforcing the bearish sentiment. Kijun-sen: This line (red) is the average of the highest high and lowest low over the last 26 periods. The price is below both lines, indicating bearish momentum. Chikou Span (Lagging Span) : This line shows the current price action shifted back 26 periods, providing a historical perspective. Position: The Chikou Span is below the price action from 26 periods ago, which is another bearish signal. Kijun-sen Cross : The Tenkan-sen crossing below the Kijun-sen while both are below the cloud strengthens the bearish outlook. Key Price Levels Breakout Level: $89,800 (Neckline) Current Price: Around $92,750 Resistance: Cloud top around $95,000 - $97,000 - $100,000. Support : Below the neckline, potential support around $85,000 to $82,000. Volume Analysis Volume: While high/average volume during the formation of the head might suggests strong participation, the volume during the right shoulder formation is lower, possibly indicating reduced buying interest. Last Note : As a confluence the Trend Strength Index is also showing a declining movement both the weekly and daily charts even though it it at floor levels on the 4 Hr chart. This basically tells us that we might see some dip movements in the following days if volume continue dumping like it does in the past 3 1D candles. Conclusion Using the Ichimoku Cloud, we observe several bearish signals for Bitcoin: The price is below the cloud, indicating bearish momentum. The Tenkan-sen is below the Kijun-sen, and both are below the cloud, reinforcing the bearish trend. The Chikou Span is below past price action, further confirming the bearish scenario. Despite the future cloud showing an upward slope, the current price action suggests a continuation of the downtrend, with the Head and Shoulders pattern serving as a strong bearish indicator. Traders should consider this analysis in light of overall market conditions, keeping in mind that while the Ichimoku provides comprehensive insights, market sentiment and external factors also play crucial roles. Watch for any potential retest of the neckline or cloud for further confirmation of the trend. But instead of the bearish breakout to the downward, if Bitcoin can rebound from the current price level, it is going to be yet another strong bullish move for a formation of a megaphone which is unlikely though. For risk management, always consider using stop-loss orders, especially in volatile markets like cryptocurrency. Stay Tuned for further updates. With Regards. CTE.

BTC could be about to crashBitcoin bulls are under significant pressure today as the price tests the lower boundary of a 50-day range. Since November 21st, Bitcoin has formed a major head-and-shoulders pattern, indicating that a break below 91,281 could result in an 18% decline, bringing the price down to 74.16k. While such a drop would be significant, it seems unlikely given the broader bullish trend and strong fundamentals, though it cannot be ruled out entirely. From a trading perspective, here are a few strategies to consider: 1. Short on a Break: Short Bitcoin if it breaks below 91.28k, targeting levels around 86k or 84k instead of 74k, as buyers may step in at those lower levels. 2. Buy the Dip: Consider buying near 86k, as it serves as a support level, and traders often capitalize on sharp dips of this magnitude. 3. Buy Now with Caution: Enter a long position at the current support level, though caution is warranted as the market may attempt to run stops below 91.28k. Traders should remain vigilant, as the price action around 91.28k will likely dictate the next significant move. This content is not directed to residents of the EU or UK.
