Why Your Chart Might Be Lying to You And (How to Fix It) !Hello Traders 🐺 Ever clicked the “Log” button on your chart and suddenly everything looked different? Yeah, you’re not alone... Most traders ignore it. But understanding the difference between a Linear and Logarithmic chart can literally change how you see price action — especially if you’re into long-term moves or trading volatile markets like crypto. Let’s break it down real simple 👇 🔹 Linear Chart (a.k.a. the default) This is what most charts use by default. It measures price change in absolute terms. Meaning: the distance from $10 to $20 is exactly the same as from $20 to $30 — because in both cases, price moved $10. 🧠 Sounds fair, right? Not always. Here's why... Let’s say a stock goes from $1 to $2 — that’s a 100% gain. But if it goes from $100 to $101 — that’s just 1%. ✅ Linear Chart – Pros Simple and easy to read Good for short-term price action Better for assets with small price ranges Familiar to most beginners ❌ Linear Chart – Cons Misleading in long-term charts Distorts large percentage moves Trendlines become unreliable over time Doesn’t reflect real growth in % terms 🔹 Logarithmic Chart (Log Scale) This one shows percentage-based price movement. Now, going from $10 to $20 (100% gain) and going from $100 to $200 (also 100% gain) look exactly the same on the chart — which actually makes more sense when analyzing growth. It’s super useful when: ✅ You’re analyzing big moves over time ✅ You want to draw accurate trendlines in long-term charts ✅ You're dealing with assets that grew 5x, 10x or more ✅ You care about % gains instead of raw price ❌ Log Chart – Cons Less intuitive for beginners Not useful for low-volatility assets Small price moves may look insignificant here is an example of the same chart but in the Log Scale : As you can see on the chart above there is huge difference in accuracy when you use Log scale for the high volatile asset such as BTC specially in the long term movements . 🆚 So, When Should You Use Each One? Situation Use Linear Use Log Small price changes ✅ ❌ Day trading / scalping ✅ ❌ Long-term analysis ❌ ✅ Parabolic or exponential moves ❌ ✅ Drawing long trendlines ❌ ✅ Final Thoughts If your chart looks weird when you zoom out… If your trendlines don’t quite fit anymore… Or if you’re analyzing something that went 10x… 🔁 Try switching to Log scale — it might just clean up the noise. Small toggle. Big difference. And also remember our golden rule : 🐺 Discipline is rarely enjoyable , but almost always profitable. 🐺 🐺 KIU_COIN 🐺

XAUUSD H4 Outlook – “Fed Week: Only the Real Zones”Hello, gold traders! FOMC week is here, the dollar’s flexing, and gold is stuck under a fortress of supply. No fantasy, no overlaps, just your real, actionable H4 map—zones spaced, logic tight, and all fluff deleted. ⬜Bias: Neutral to bearish while price is capped under 3,355 and the EMA cluster. Only flip bullish if price closes and holds above 3,375 with strong confirmation after news. Current Price: 3,336.81 Summary for your audience: Neutral–bearish: All the EMAs (21/50/100/200) are overhead, and the primary supply and decision zones are blocking any upside. No reason to flip bullish unless gold breaks out and holds above both the decision zone and the full supply ceiling after major news. All bounces into supply are likely to get faded, unless the structure changes dramatically post-FOMC. 🟥 ULTRA SUPPLY ZONE: 3,390 – 3,405 127–161.8% Fib extension—liquidity grab and stop-hunt target for news-driven spikes Only short if you see a monster upper wick and hard rejection 🟥 PRIMARY SUPPLY: 3,365 – 3,375 All EMAs (21/50/100/200) are stacked overhead; unfilled FVG at 3,370–3,375 Short on a clear rally rejection or bearish engulfing candle—this is where most breakouts get trapped 🔶 DECISION ZONE: 3,340 – 3,355 EMA100/200 straddle this level; small FVG at 3,350–3,352 Market “decides” here—fade unless price closes decisively above 3,355 🔵 EQUILIBRIUM SHELF: 3,320 – 3,335 50% Fib at 3,327; filled FVG at 3,325–3,330; SMA50 just below Bounce/fake-break zone—wait for a clean H4 reversal, not a guess 🟢 FIRST DEMAND BASE: 3,290 – 3,310 H4 Order Block, hidden FVG (3,300–3,305), Fib 38.2% around 3,295 Longs only with strong pin-bar/engulf and quick EMA50 reclaim 🔵 DEEP PULLBACK BAY: 3,250 – 3,280 Weekly EMA21 and 61.8% Fib (~3,260), strong volume Only consider a long on a panic flush and a powerful reversal wick ⚡️ MACRO CONTEXT USD: On fire into ADP and FOMC; gold moves will be explosive, not logical Events: Tue: ADP Wed: FOMC + Powell Thu: Core PCE Fri: NFP, ISM Bias: Neutral-bearish under 3,355; only bullish if we close and hold above 3,375 EMAs: Clustered tightly overhead—bulls get no respect until this ceiling is crushed 🎯 TRADE LOGIC Shorts: 3,390–3,405 (big wicks and clear rejection only) 3,365–3,375 (news spike or failed breakout with bearish candle) Longs: 3,340–3,355 (only on a confirmed close above) 3,320–3,335 (strong reversal only—don’t front run) 3,290–3,310 (classic H4 pin-bar/engulf + EMA50 reclaim) 3,250–3,280 (deep panic flush and major reversal only) NO TRADE: In the gaps—let the gamblers get chewed up, not you. 💬 Which zone will you snipe?

$PLTR: Regressive Heatmap🏛️ Research Notes Technically this looks overbought, but fundamentally we know that under current administration this company is clear beneficiary (new contracts). Seems to explain why chart's dips were bought off extending bullish phases of cycle. However, there is still always a limit (as price keeps moving up, it alters the chances and magnitude of counter-move). Therefore, I'll test how wide range of 2021-2022yrs drop (prev cycle) can define the bullrun of current cycle. I'd say the very fact of anchoring the structure to actual chart points inherits its texture in next series of fractal based fib ratios. All observed key coordinates build up into the following cross-cycle interconnections:

Bitcoin Next Leg Incoming? Targets $134K from Bullish WedgeBTCUSDT is consolidating within a descending wedge right above a critical demand zone, following a impulsive breakout from its prior range structure. This current setup suggests another potential bullish continuation, especially as price continues to respect both the wedge support and internal demand. With the higher timeframe structure favoring bulls and previous demand zones holding firm, the projected breakout targets align with $123,218 and $134,446 respectively. A clean invalidation would only be confirmed on a sustained break below the wedge and loss of the strong support area near $110K. All eyes on the wedge apex as BTC prepares for its next major leg.

DGKC Monthly Buy Plan — Bullish Outlook📈 DGKC Monthly Buy Plan — Bullish Outlook ✅ Bias: Strongly Bullish Price has broken major resistance levels with high momentum, forming a big bull trend on the monthly timeframe. 🔍 Key Observations: Break of Structure: Price broke past a major resistance zone (previous high). Strong monthly green candles show institutional interest. Demand Zone (Blue Box): A fresh demand zone is formed — a possible area for pullback re-entry. If price retests this zone, it may offer a high-probability long setup. Liquidity Magnet Zone (Red Box): A clear monthly imbalance / supply zone around the 210–220 range. Could act as a temporary resistance before continuation. Final Target: Monthly inefficiency / liquidity target at 273.05, likely the final destination of the move. Market structure suggests this level can be reached before any major reversal. 🔄 Plan Execution: 🔵 Scenario 1 (Pullback Entry): Wait for a pullback to the blue demand zone. Look for lower timeframe confirmation to enter long. 🔵 Scenario 2 (Momentum Continuation): If price continues without deep pullback, consider smaller timeframes for continuation setups. Do not chase price; wait for valid structure.

USDJPY Will Fall! Short! Take a look at our analysis for USDJPY. Time Frame: 1D Current Trend: Bearish Sentiment: Overbought (based on 7-period RSI) Forecast: Bearish The price is testing a key resistance 147.661. Taking into consideration the current market trend & overbought RSI, chances will be high to see a bearish movement to the downside at least to 145.139 level. P.S The term oversold refers to a condition where an asset has traded lower in price and has the potential for a price bounce. Overbought refers to market scenarios where the instrument is traded considerably higher than its fair value. Overvaluation is caused by market sentiments when there is positive news.
