Price Reversal in Play: Key Levels and Targets to WatchAfter analyzing multiple timeframes, we can see that the price started trading within a large channel from Friday, 15th March 2024. The channel’s upper boundary acted as a strong resistance on Thursday, 31st October 2024, at 2790. Both the upper and lower boundaries of the channel have consistently functioned as key support and resistance levels.
The price reached an all-time high (ATH) of 2955, where it struggled to break through the channel’s upper boundary. Given the historical respect for these channel lines, we now anticipate a potential reversal. The price has already started to turn around, and to confirm this reversal, we need to see a break below both the trendline and the support level.
Once confirmed, your targets will be:
• 1st Target: 23.60% (2867)
• 2nd Target: 38.20% (2813)
• 3rd Target: 50.00% (2770)
• 4th Target: 61.80% (2726)
Make sure to follow proper risk management.

PLR (Path of Least Resistance) Strategy Explanation - $SHOPHi guys this is a follow up to a post I have just published about my trading idea on shorting NYSE:SHOP ,
It really doesn't matter if you want to short the market or long the market as it works either way, but for the sake of the example I'll take a 6 months period from the Shopify chart following earnings to better explain you my strategy...
This right here is the NYSE:SHOP chart from approx. Jan/2024 to end of Aug/2024,
2 Earnings have been announced, both having great positive surprises, but regardless of the positive surprise (typically bullish indicator), the stock fell of 45%+.
Let's add the earnings dates to the chart so that you can better visualize them:
What you care about in this image is the earnings dates lined out, as you can see the surprise was positive yet both fell more than 10% in just a day, that I will take as the upcoming trend for at least the time being, till the next earning is announced (so, if for example the 13/Feb earning ended up being bearish, my overview on the market till at least the next earning on 8/May, will be bearish, so all of the trades I will take will be shorts).
Now I will line out the trend and the BoSs (breaks of structure) just to better visualize the trend:
As you can see the Earning date candles signed the beginning of a down trend twice, pre-announced by the Earning candle itself.
The entry strategy is now simple, the idea behind it is to "follow the path of least resistance".. by that I mean that, if your bias is bullish, who enter on candles that are of the opposite direction to the one you are heading to? - Sure you might say that it is to get better entries as ofc, on a short bias, higher sale points = better profits, but the goal here is not maximizing profits, but raising the odds exponentially so that you can take surer trades.
I've tested this strategy from Feb/2021 and so far the win rate is 95.6% (123 out of 136 trades profited .
The way the entries are spread is this:
Basically every time a bearish candle - that closes lower than the previous bearish candle did - is created, a short position of 1% of total equity is generated.
The period begins from the beginning of the current earnings season, and closes the day before the next earnings season as it works within a 3 months frame.
Each entry HAS to be the lowest bearish candle of the period, example:
Only these candles marked in blue count as entries for short positions as their close is lower of more than 0.5% than the previous one,
The pink ones are higher than the lowest up to that point, so they do not count as entries as they are technically part of a pullback that is moving in the opposite direction where you are heading.
So, going back to the entries, we enter on the close of the lowest bearish candle close up to that point.
For safety, we trail the stop loss to the previous high, this is where well defined trend lines come handy:
The thick black line is the trend line, and as new lows are broken, I mark those as BoS (break of structure) and until a new one is created, the SL will go to the previous high, and so it goes.
(viceversa for buys).
We then proceed to target the FVGs left behind by previous quarters:
As you can see there are massive gaps in the chart that we will target and identify as FVGs (Fair Value Gaps) and set the TP at the close (lowest point) of the fair value gap.
Now comes in your exit strategy...
There really are 3 ways that you can tackle this:
1- You set up TP to the lowest FVG of the series (if there are multiple like in this case)
2- You set up TP to the first FVG still open during the quarter following the Earnings Period
3- You tackle both TPs and take each FVG as a partial close to the position (example: if there are 2 FVGs you take out 50% of the position on the first and 50% on the last).
But what to do if your positions didn't reach TP (FVG close) before the next Earning or there is no FVG to begin with???
- In the case the TP you have marked out at the close of the FVG didn't reach, you'll proceed to close the position 1 day before the next Earnings is coming, unless your conviction that the FVG will fill in is so high, then you can let those run at your own risk:
- In the case in which a FVG is not present then you'll target the previous High (in case of a buy) or Low (in case of a sell) as your TP, utilize the previous low (in case of buy) or previous high (in case of sell) as SL and just let it run:
as you can see the 4 trades were all profitable, made little money but sure money in just 15 days
Unless I forget anything, this right here, is my strategy.
Simple, straight forward, high success rate and doesn't leave anything up to the case.

How I identify the best forex pairs to trade:Here is how I identify the best forex pairs to trade:
In the top left panel, the indicator 'Compare Forex' displays the PERFORMANCE of each major currency.
The USD (red line) has been the strongest currency for the past 2 months on H6 charts.
By identifying the strongest currency, all that remains is to trade the USD against all the other currencies since they are weaker.
= Smooth stress-free charts.
I look at my trades 2-3 times a day to see if they are still blue or red. Takes a few minutes.

BTCUSD: The Game of Probabilities | New ATH? 65.28% Chance!Medium-term analysis of COINBASE:BTCUSD indicates that the price is poised to surge towards new all-time highs, with a probability of 65.28%!
Let's get into the underlying reasons for this:
1. The current status on the "1D" timeframe is "Active," indicating that the price has already reached and touched the 50% equilibrium level on the current timeframe.
2. Since the price has reached the equilibrium level of the daily timeframe, our focus now shifts to determining which liquidity side presents higher probabilities compared to the other.
3. In this scenario, the 1D/BSL (Buyside liquidity) indicates a 65.28% probability of the price reaching the 73835.57 level again.
More details:
Feel free to share your thoughts or any feedback you have on the analysis.

EURGBP: Exploring a Potential Sell OpportunityCurrently, EURGBP is exhibiting bearish institutional order flow , leading me to anticipate a continuation from the current H1 Bearish Order Block. The objective is for price to reach the Daily Bullish Order Block, our current Draw On Liquidity. This sell opportunity holds a high probability due to the presence of low resistance liquidity towards the downside, facilitating smooth movement through inefficiencies such as Liquidity Voids and Fair Value Gaps towards the Order Block.
I have considered taking a Risk Entry Trade off the H1 Order Block, with the Stop Loss positioned at the high of the Order Block.

How to Find a High Probability Trade in an Uptrend Hey Traders,
We'll show you how you can find an easy trade with a high risk-to-reward ratio using some basic concepts.
- Step One: Spot an uptrend where you have higher highs and higher lows.
- Step two: Spot the last break of structure.
- Step three: Use the Fibonacci tool and connect it from the recent lows to the recent highs.
- Step Four: Watch prices coming back to the broken structure that lines up with any Fibonacci level. ( Focus on the 50% - 61.8% - 78.6% Levels )
- Step Five: Wait for a clear bullish candle and then enter with stoploss structure
- Step Six: Take partial profits at the recent highs and the Fibonacci extensions ( - 0.27 & -0.618 )
📕Low-Quality setups (UNCLEAR) VS High quality (CLEAR) setups📕High quality (Clear) vs Low Quality (Unclear, wicky, random, guessing)
Setups in Our Trading
High quality clear (HQC) setups are best representations of your EDGE, they allow you to feel confident in the MOMENT of placing a trade, and you can feel relatively good about it even if it’s a loser, because you know you traded in clear market environment and did your best
HQC setups bring you HEALTHY excitement and joy from the process of your trading, in case of a winner, usually not leading to overconfidence and doesn’t lead to attachment to random reward, and in case of a loser - you are not dragged into revenge or depression, because you know losers are also part of your strategy and your execution was good
When you enter HQC setups that speaks about you as about a trader you tested their strategy, who knows what they want to see in the market and applied effort to stay away from bad condition and wait for a better one. These skills alone are so much better than 1 random +3R or +5R winner
Low quality unclear (LQU) setups mean something is out of your mental game today, you feel not feel good in longterm perspective trading them, because you kind of KNOW you should trade them, but you still do. It all sucks you into an emotional circle.
LQU setups bring you UNHEALTHY , short term lived overexcitement in case of a winner, attaching you to random rewards, which is fatal for a trader. Every time entering a LQU setup you develop a habit or “teach” yourself that it is easy and fast way of earning money. Just see something distantly reminding about your setup and enter. Sometimes you’ll get away, but longterm you’ll lose more.
LQU setups means you are you fully confident in your core strategy, and so you may unconsciously search for random entries, because you entered like this before and it brought you reward. Trading LQU setups is destroying your mental game and account in the short, medium and longterm

Bottom For oil was May 2023. Oil prices are prepared for strong growth to the upside. NYMEX:CL1! made its bottom in May of 2023.
Three reasons for this case to be made.
Russia cutting OPEC+ production by 500,000. The original balance from OEPC+ was 450,000 barrels of surplus. No Suprise that they cut it by exactly 500,000.
U.S. Now focused on SPR replenishing as opposed to releases.
