FB bullish bat pattern and inside day long opportunityFB has been a trading hot spot for a couple of days with a 30% slump, looking for some set-up to long is not too crazy.
Actually this X point is not a perfect one and the more significant 0.618 retracement will be near 145,
but if the inside day is able to break to the upside, it's still a worth taking trade with solid 8EMA correction rooms.
Let's see how it goes!
Inside Bar
Dow Jones (US30) bullish gartley and inside 4hr combination"Systematic risk creates potential buy low opportunities"
People with this thought may have participated the Brexit day and the Trump winning day's victories.
Also,in terms of harmonic trading,
the logic is not "It's nonsense to catch the falling knife" ; it's more like "We'll be waiting for the slump to get the long entry".
Of course, there is no need to put a buy limit to create liquidity for the market, although we keep "buy low" in mind, it still needs time to let the selling momentum get released, and that's why we need reversal signs.
Here we got a bullish gartley pattern and inside 4hr combination, I'll be willing to be more bullish intraday until the inside day low gets broken down.
Let's see how it goes!
SPX500 Inside day, 4 trading strategies out thereStock market has been consolidating for the whole day to form an inside day.
As there are still plenty of room before the buy-low and sell-high spot, it's a worth trading inside day no matter which side it breaks.
It made the 1 and 2 trades.
For 3, it's a bearish bat pattern and supply zone combination; For 4, it's a bullish 2618 .
With such analysis, we'll have trading plans on different kinds of scenarios, and that's the core concept of "Never predict"!
Let's see how it goes!
XAUUSD Cypher, inside 4hr, and hourly 2618 combination short"The more the combination, the more the confirmation" -- Trader_Joe_Lee
The market finally had some solid moves after the Fed announcement, which gave enough momentum to the sell-high spot.
To be fair, this cypher pattern is not a perfect one, that's why we need strong confirmation entry.
The inside 4hr breakdown still got plenty of rooms to run 8EMA correction, and it also formed an hourly double top.
With such combination, it's kind of a worth-taking counter-trend trade for me.
The way of executing risk management on counter-trend trade is that,
I'll risk less than what I usually do and I won't take second counter-trend trade before I got my 1st kick.
Let's see how it goes!
Long opportunity for GbpUsd???The GbpUsd is in an uptrend.
The Pound surged higher against the Dollar and broke the counter-trend line two days ago, followed by a pull-back bar to retest the trend line which has now become the support.
Will the Pound continue to move higher after breaking the Doji's high that formed yesterday?
My position :
Buy Stop Order : 1.3998
SL : 1.3908
TP : 1.4133

BTCUSD 4hr XYAB Pattern long opportunityBTCUSD had a nice bounce off the bullish bat pattern with an almost 100% rally, which was able to break some important pivots of the previous downtrend.
Accordingly, there would be a potential bullish XYAB pattern long opportunity.
Though there are still lots of rooms, it's worth noticing since it may play as a reminder that if we would like to buy the dip on BTCUSD, it might be the best possible trade!
Of course, this trade doesn't imply that it may go all the way to 7000 again, and if it's able to break 12000 nicely, I would also like to long in other techniques like inside bar trades.
Let's see how it goes!
USDJPY: False break of inside barToday we have seen a break of the inside bar setup that formed yesterday. This will give us a possible better entry short below today's candle with a stop above that candle. We will still want to take profit just before the support level, which could give us a 3R return. Once we break below the mother candle I will consider moving my stop to break even. I will leave the current limit short order below the mother candle adding on to the trade as it moves into my favor.
BTCUSD bullish inside week and bearish 2618Last time I posted the XYAB pattern for BTCUSD, which created a solid buy-low area;
while on the other hand, it kept consolidating before 12,000 to form an inside week and it broke to the upside a little bit in the Asia market.
So short-term speaking, this inside week breakout may be a nice set-up to long, and the 2618 upfront will be the sell-high area.
Let's see how it goes!
Jump on accelerating up trend on eurcadOANDA:EURCAD has been accelerating to the upside for the past few months.
There is still some upside left before price hits old resistance zone.
This week price has been consolidating again in an inside bar pattern. The last inside bar formed a bullish pinbar.
I will enter long at the break above last Fridays mother candle.
I will place a stoploss below the tail of the pinbar.
I will plan the TP right before the resistance zone.
Short Gold on break lower of inside bar formationAfter making a double top it looks to me OANDA:XAUUSD will swing lower.
I will time my entry at the break lower of the current inside bar formation.
I will place my stoploss halfway the mother candle.
I plan my take profit at 3R, which coincides with previous support and resistance level.
GBPJPY inside hr at daily demand zone long opportunityIn terms of inside bars, it's basically a so-called random inside bar that barely has any trading value;
while on the other hand, actually the daily demand zone is not where this idea comes from either.
This trade comes from a combination of the bullish Gartley pattern of USDJPY and a daily hammer of GBPUSD.
When I want to long this 2 pairs at the same time, that's when I would like to long GBPJPY.
Being bullish on GBPJPY is not enough for taking a long trade, so we still need an set-up, and here comes the inside hr.
Let's see how it goes!
False break of inside bars structureAfter the clear down trend we saw some consolidation in OANDA:USDCHF that looks like it is forming a bottoming pattern.
In the short term I will be looking to trade the next leg down if we see price move below yesterdays low.

Example of a inside bar + false break tradeHere is an example of a profitable trade that closed out today for a 2R gain.
I currently have an open order on the USDCHF with a simular setup. See linked idea.
The setup consists of the following elements:
strong / clear preceding trend
consolidation in the form of one or more inside bars
a false break out of the consolidation, thus rejecting the counter trend direction
place a trade in the direction of the preceding trend
In this example the break was a well formed pinbar and I therefore placed a limit entry order at the 50% retracement of the pinbar.
Stop was placed above the high of the pinbar.
Profit target was placed at two times the distance of the stop, giving a R2R ratio of 2. Target also nicely lined up with the bottom of the consolidation / mother candle of the inside bar pattern.

GBPUSD a 0.618 retracement and 2618 combination longHello TV fans happy Chinese New Year, the vacation has come to an end so I'm back!
--
GBPUSD has a daily 0.618 retracement and bounced off that, and formed a double bottom reversal sign.
I'll be looking for smaller time frame reversal sign if it hits 1.3910, it's very close after the job number this afternoon,
so I don't mind to take the inside 15 breakout or the 30min pin bar as a little intra-day trade, but the main idea is still the 2618!
Let's see how it goes!
MCD Inside day long opportunity.So yes, the pull back that many investors had been waiting for over an year finally came,
although it's way harder than people may expect, it still create many trading opportunities for both bulls and bears.
Here I got this MCD trade , after it's 15% pull-back it gave an inside day, and I would like to long if it's able to break to the upside.
Let's see how it goes!
MNK, Another it's never too low to sell story?We've been through DDD,VRX,GPRO to the recent TEVA stories to me MNK is just another.
Back to the days I was a proprietary trader, MNK is one of my favorite name as if I don't know what to trade in any given day I tried to short the name.
Only if we kept "it's never too low to sell" in mind that we can catch this kind of profit, otherwise we might be stopped out each time when we want to buy the dip.
I don't really suggest taking this inside week short as I know it takes gigantic risk appetite to take this trade, but I am more than willing to post in on TradingView to see how it goes afterwards.
BTC, bear trend holdingOverview:
Short-term bear trend in the context of a longer-term bull trend.
Resistance @ 13000-13500
Support @ 10000
Symmetrical triangle (continuation signal) + falling volume.
Inside bar setup w/ false break (blue rectangle)
Keep an eye on which way the price breaks--above or below the triangle and inside bars.
Remember that we are in a bear trend. Trades counter to the trend are certainly possible...just more risky. BTC has a lot to prove before we can say that the bear-trend is no longer in valid.
Blizzard(ATVI) Inside day breakout after HCT World ChampionAs I mentioned from my previous posts, I am not only a trader but also a big fan of Hearthstone.
Tom60229 from Taiwan won 3 games in a row after facing 0:2 situation and won the title.
It reminds me of looking for ATVI trading opportunities, and I got a inside day breakout yesterday.
The momentum was not special at all in a intraday trading point of view, while still it was a inside day after all time high breakout,
so I'm still willing to find intraday long opportunities!
