Leverage

Cardano's Easy 20%, Fast 40% + Sure 70% (10X Lev Trade Reminder)Cardano is moving ahead and right now we need only focus on the targets since we took care of the chart signals a few weeks ago. We've been bullish; Now it grows. Patience is key. Enjoy the results. Cardano 10X Lev. These type of chart setups are not seen very often... These opportunities are hard to find... We are active with 10X and high potential rewards = high risk. The first target is set around $0.5750 for 20% potential profits. Up to 200% with 10X lev. The second target is set around $0.6850 for 43% or 430% total. Finally, the 70/700% target is the mid-term price jump. There can be more but we aim low, secure our trades and always secure profits on the way up. This is not financial advice. Leveraged trading is ultra-high risk and for experts only. Please do your own research before trading. Always make sure to have a plan in place. Wishing you great wealth and success. Wishing you a strong recovery. Wishing you peace! Namaste.

semiconductors climbing out of the holeright now major indices and the nasdaq especially is banking on semis carrying a significant bounce out of the giant hole they have dug for themselves and us all. it follows that if we can hold 15.80s breaking 16.80s and continue with TRAMA staying over VWMA with both averages rising together that we should hae the go ahead to close the gap around 18.60s (strange that the decimal and integer are inverted 🤔 for either target). should ve a mega green day if we just manage to keep oscillators headed toward overbought with the price making higher lows.

Bitcoin Leveraged Longs At Historic RecordsThis chart of BITFINEX:BTCUSDLONGS represents the total number of Bitcoin held in margin positions on the exchange Bitfinex. This is only the data for one exchange but I make the assumption that as a data point it represents the state of the trading ecosystem as a whole. What this data shows is that despite the drop in price (or rather because of it) traders have been apeing into the dip with larger amounts of leverage than ever seen before. This could mean one of two things: Traders using high amounts of leverage will get rewarded for taking on high risk if the price rebounds Traders using high amounts of leverage will be liquidated and create an even more rapid cascade of price decline if the price continues to fall Time will tell... do these traders taking on excessive risk get to win? Another question: if so many people are buying to DCA and/or speculate... why is price falling?

i wouldnt try to long vix right now even if were in a bear mark volatility is doing something interesting. after a failed breakout, it has consolidated and found weekly higher lows. although this normally means were in for a huge move to the downside in broader markets i believe the timing just isnt there at the present moment. things could change overnight, but they could also change the other way just as fast, and however beat down uvxy may be right now it can always go lower next week. i dont think its unfair to stick to the 11.50 target as a rule of thumb while the s&p is showing signs that daily consolidation could lead to resuming the bounce. edit*(if we hold 11.79 closing above 13.79)edit* i will change my mind, but for now i remain bearish on vix.

How much leverage should I be using?Understanding how to trade forex requires detailed knowledge about economies, political situations, all the individual countries, global macroeconomics, the impact of volatility, it goes on and on. But the reality of the situation is this isn't what makes most new traders fail. What makes most traders fail isn't the lack of knowledge or understanding of what it is they're actually trading. It's the lack of knowledge and understanding on leverage. As most of us would have heard, there is very obvious statistic out there that majority of retail traders fail. Now, most people will see this as a lack of competence and just purely not willing to put in the effort to be successful. But a lot of the time it is people not understanding the risk their undertaking and what it is they're actually doing with their money when they enter the market. It really highlights this when traders come to a firm like ours, and question leverage or they have so many questions about leverage that even though they've been trading for three to four years, they still don't fully understand the actual risks that are at hand when they are opening certain positions that they really can't afford to open. Today I wanted to jump into leverage. Let's really dive into depth what it is, why we have it, how we can use it. Then, finally touch on what is the right amount of leverage for you as a trader. So you can be exponential in maximizing your profits, but also ensuring that you're not damaging yourself long term. LEVERAGE RISK Firstly, I think it's important for us to have a look into leverage. Leverage is the process in which an investor or trader borrows capital in order to invest or purchase something. Typically we borrow capital from a broker and we buy into positions with money that we didn't have in order to be able to gain more profit from those positions. Most traders are blindsided and constantly think the more money I have, the more profit I can make, which is true, but they fail to recognize that the more risk it carries. Carrying higher leverage is an exponential increase in risk. Most brokers out there will probably offer you something like 50:1, 100:1 or even 500:1 leverage. This giving you a buying power of 50, 100 or even 500 times whatever the amount of money you have in your account. Which means a trader with just $100 in a brokerage account could open a position with $50,000 in the market. Now, while that may sound advertising, believe me, that's a trap and we're going to chat about that today. HIGH LEVERAGE EXAMPLE So let's dive into an example. Let's imagine we have a trader who has a $10,000 account. They decide to use 100:1 leverage, which now means with that $10,000 cash, they can trade up to $1,000,000 in the forex market. Let's assume that the trader opened a position with the full available capital which would relate to 10 lots, and they opened the position on a currency with the USD being the quote currency. That means that each PIP movement is equal to $100. So for a simple equation, if they were to enter a trade and that trade went against them by 50 pips, they would have lost 50% of their account because that 50 pips would have been equal to $5000. So in one wrong trade they lost 50% of their account. So many people in this industry is so quick to look at what the realized gains could be, but they rather tend to ignore the actual risks that come with that. If you don't have sufficient evidence that your investment strategy is going to provide consistent and stable gains long term, do not look to trade with higher leverage, as you will be gambling and it is extremely risky. LOW LEVERAGE EXAMPLE Now let's use the same example, but in a lower leverage situation. The trader has $10,000 cash only this time he is trading on an account with 5:1 leverage, resulting in a buying power of $50,000. This means on a pair with the US dollar as the base currency that you can open a maximum size of 0.5 lots. Let's go ahead and take the exact same trade, only this time with a 0.5 lots, each pip is equal to $5. Should the investment or trade fall the same 50 pips this time the trader will only lose $250, which is a mere 2.5%. Same trade, different leverage, one lost 50% the other lost 2.5%. It is a common trick out there that traders feel they require more leverage to really make money in the market. It's not true. Yes, it can help you get more profits from those smaller moves. Yes, it is really beneficial if you have a proven strategy. If you are still coming to grips with trading or you're fairly new and you haven't achieved consistency and profitability yet, focus on lower leverage. What it will actually do is make you focus on long term goals. Focus on the process this giving you more sustainability in the market and therefore more maturity. CHOOSE THE RIGHT LEVERAGE Choosing the right leverage is a very important step in Forex trading. You can be tapered in by fancy numbers and big brokers trying to get you in, Or, you can realistically dive into what it is you actually need and what's going to benefit you more in the future. There's no right answer to how much leverage you need each strategy in each individual require different things, but what I will do is share some tips and some knowledge on how to choose the right one that benefits you. 1. Always try and maintain the lowest leverage you possibly can for your strategy. If you manage to pull it right the way into where you can only just open the positions on the risk you have allowed yourself, and you can't open more than, lets say three positions, what you actually do is limit yourself to focus on only the good positions. You've prevented over trading from occurring and you can really focus on your risk management. 2. When you open positions or you talk about opening positions instead of going to people saying, "yes, I opened 0.35 lots." Use the actual dollar value when you open a 0.35 lot position. Instead, say "I opened a $35,000 position." Talking in that language that you have placed your bets with $100,000 or $1,000,000 will make you realize how much risk you're actually exposing yourself to and the capacity of what it is you are trading. 3. Limit your overall risk, at absolute Max, I risk 0.25%. This allows me to go into large drawdowns and it not be an issue. I can still manage it accordingly in it actually keeps me nice and calm and focused on the analysis rather than the running profit and loss. The bottom line is selecting the right Forex leverage depends on the traders experienced risk tolerance and comfort when operating in the market. You want to ensure that it's not out there to harm you, but rather it's there to help. You do not want be trying to get really high leverage so you can make large profits, when you know realistically, there is no evidence to prove that you will make those high profits. Start small, gain consistency, gain exposure and gain experience, and then you can start looking to expand your equity and buying power.

multiple scenarios for mondaydepending how futures market plays out tonight and if people keep buying a mondays open we cod have very different outcomes. the bull case is essentially if we see RSI, Double STOCH signal remain positive or if we hit resistance at gap close and continue lower or make a double bottom. even in the bull case we could rally for a couple weeks and then double bottom. bias cautiously bullish as there are more bull scenarios than bear. even the magenta path is a bull scenario for a few days. staying over TRAMA and causing VWMA to rise with it means strong support for bulls.

vix still getting waveshigh 19s are due if we can hold above high 18s. were headed for that same resistance and if we break the quad top it will close the gap at 20.05 . short targets are lower horizontals if we cant hold high 18s and the middle line is what i think would be a good pivot. TRAMA is flatlining, and VWMA is wobbly but if we start to see red crossing above blue and trending up together i would look to the upside. 21 still possible, though as is mid 16s. the daily bounce hasnt happened in semiconductors, big tech or spx.

oversold semiconductors (SOXL)if critical support provides meaningful buy volume and we close the week near the highs then semiconductors, and the broader market could exhibit a bounce here towards lower 36s. if we see another wave of selling down at these levels were probably blowing through that support on the weekly trending toward upper 16s taking the market with it as semiconductors are a lead bear. keep TRAMA from sinking and come out of oversold STOCH and we could diverge bullishly. if things head for continuation it is likely more bearish.

Some ideas on How We Trade (Spot and Leverage)Hi everyone, let's try something new for you tonight: I made this video to share with you how we day-trade. It's a video so you watch it and let us know your thoughts. If you like it or find it useful we can make more videos like this. The market has been a disaster for many: It has happened before and it will happen again. Just remember to go back and look at how we dealt with it (we hedged enough and we are still 'alive). I really liked what my good friend Irina said today : 'I think we all learn some lessons these days. That’s what bear markets are for. Learning lessons.'' Her hair is painted red-ish. She promised to paint them Green on Monday so we remain friends (true story, yes). Watch the video, it could help you see a different way of doing things. Remember: Trading is RISKY and is not recommended for anyone! DYOR and LEARN from everything that happens. one Love, the FXPROFESSOR

SNX update: Using Chaikin Money Flow and the Keltner ChannelsFull disclosure: I am long SNX with a current holding of 3,042 tokens held on the Celsius Network. I am currently grandfathered in and still earning 14.05% APY despite the recent SEC ruling inhibiting non-accredited US investors (like me) from earning interest. Libertarian here, so I hate big government. Anyway, recent SNX price action continues to plod in the direction we like. Looking at the CMF (Chaikin money flow- green line below), it appears we are seeing a renewed interest flowing into SNX. Always a good sign. And the Keltner Channels show a robust upward trend. Currently, SNX is staying safely within the upper band of the KC, not overextending above nor dipping below into the lower band. This is VERY bullish action. May it continue. If you like this idea, please feel free to comment or read my other ideas to stay abreast on SNX. -- Garry
