Pivot

Are there worms in the Apple? #stocksApple has been a great holding in the portfolio from 109 but has had some selling in recent days near range highs. For now I will remain long and will use 123 as my pivot area. As long as we hold above 123 I will be looking for continuation of the trend to the upside. Below 123 we could see a bigger reversal down into the range. Apple will obviously be closely tied to the SPY and QQQ which are having bad days but are above pivot support. For all, trends still point higher but as we approach key levels it is important to remain vigilant.

Sell and look for next buy entry (SWING)While the pair is finding rejection DXY found major support from bottom. I sentiment a short sell off to pivot off main supports I mapped out. Sell could be a short scalp with pivot off first support. One could be safe and only enter a buy at the next support pivot. My overall sentiment is a push to 1.25000 high as it did in Jan 2018 as I have been preaching. At these levels we are psychological. Many traders are confused many COVID sentiment which is why it is important to have psychological level knowledge to your trading. Study chart and wait for safe entry. Please comment with thoughts and ideas. Thank you.

EDUCATION: Pivot LevelsHello, dear subscribers! Today we are going to talk about one of the most useful indicators in cryptotrading - pivot levels(points). We have already considered the lagging and leading indicators and decided that the second one is the most valuable. Definition Pivot levels is the leading indicator which define the potential pivot levels for the next trading period (in our example - month). The formulas for the levels calculation you can see on the picture. It is known that when the price is up of the central pivot - the market is in the uptrend, if the opposite - in the downtrend. How to trade with pivot levels It is great to use pivot level with some lagging indicator to confirm the entry points. This indicator can give the information about levels when the price can bounce off or reverse. You can see the points with small red arrows where the price bounced off pivot levels and went down after it - this points can be used for the short position. The green arrows demonstrate the potential price growth points. But there are also a lot of breakpoints (blue circles), to avoid the trade execution next to these point you need to use some confirmation with lagging indicator. Summary 1)Define the trend direction 2)Open short if downtrend, long - if uptrend 3)Define the entry points next to pivots 4)Find the confirmation with some lagging indicator to avoid the pivot break points 5)Execute the trade, set the sloploss level Good luck!

How to use yearly pivotsYearly pivots are among my top favourite tools. Nearly all the major reversals or rallies stop or turn at yearly pivots. You can also use them as targets when you see price is heading or is close to yearly pivot. It will surely hit it. You can observe it for yourself on this EURUSD chart. When price is above yearly pivot target R1 if below target S1. Watch also Yearly Midpivots (they are also very important). It is good to use long term moving averages along with yearly pivots to detect the long term trends. To apply yearly pivots use - choose "pivot points standard" then choose yearly classic, set period to 2 last years, unclick R3 S3 as price rarely makes it those (unless it is a super volatile pair). For mt4 you can download free indicator "yearly pivots". Good Luck!

UNI monthly pivot retrace swing scalp upbear in mind there is still a day or two for that coming pivot to change. if it keeps going down so will the coming pivot bear in mind... that these alt pivot swings upward. are contradictory to a bitcoin pivot downward. so with that in mind. the question is. after the monthly close. does btc play some upside maybe to new monthly H3 while alts hit their pivots. or does btc head straight for its new monthly pivot as alts all hit their new monthly L3s or lower and then they swing upward. both scenarios possible

BTCUSD | Will $13 000 level withstand?Bitcoin made rapid growth impulse to a new local ATH $13 863 yesterday morning. However the rest part of the day was quite negative as to cryptocurrency so as to stock market. The closure of the trading day brought the worst single-day decline in nearly two months, causing the richest people in the world to lose over $14 billion in net worth. Today Bitcoin has rapidly penetrated broadening wedge and felt into the ascending parallel channel which it followed the whole last week. We mentioned this event in the last update to BTCUSD trading analytics which finished with 2/2 swing trades completed. Currently Bitcoin has touched the channel and pulled back while the S&P 500, the Dow Jones, and the Nasdaq continue to plunge. We forecast the following price action may occur further. You can see forecasted bars at the chart. In case forecast performs accurately, Bitcoin should retrace to $12 910 level where a local pivot will be formed so we set a buy order at this point. The pivot is confirmed once price crosses $13 100 until this moment we will keep a tight stop loss below pivots bottom which should be located at $12 840

Salesforce.com - Potential Bullish PivotHey Traders! Salesforce.com NYSE:CRM has been on my radar today and according to my studies... CRM is giving off a strong bullish signal according to where the price is relative to the Bollinger bands and Keltner channel. I drew a few dots on the chart above to highlight the areas of interest so you can see what I look at. The Cyan dot is just to locate the price when it is between the lower Bollinger bands and Keltner channel, this is the area where I start paying attention for a bullish trade setup. The Magenta dots are for when the price is between the upper Bollinger bands and Keltner Channel bands and is when I start looking for a bearish trade setup. I use the white dot as an entry signal as price has come back within the Keltner channel. White dots following the cyan dots are bullish entry signals, whereas white dots following magenta dots are bearish entry signals. The entry signals are what I consider to be pivot points where the stock may begin to change direction. However, this strategy does generate false positive signals from time to time. As an attempt to avoid false entry signals, I take into account the trend of the stock. The stock has been trending upward the last 90 days with a net change of +33% (based on closing price 06/19/2020). Therefore, based on the indicators and trend, my assumption is that CRM could move higher. Ideally, I would like to see CRM reach $260 per share within the next 14 trading days... but who knows what could happen. Keep in mind: The days surrounding the outcome of the U.S. election, market fluctuations, and unexpected news events can send CRM in an unfavorable direction. This idea is not a call to action, nor should it be considered investment or trading advice. The ideas expressed on our TradingView page are for educational and entertainment purposes only.
