Price action & Psychology - MTFA, Double bottomHello !
Key points :
Double bottom
Significant support area, also on higher timeframes
Bearish momentum is over
It looks like the bearish momentum that carried the stock price down is now over. That particular candlesticks tells us that an attempt was made to push the stock further down, but it didn't work out.
On the 5-min chart, the interpretation of that daily candle becomes clear, at market open the price went down ("Morning panic" I guess) and came back up to consolidate around the closing area. This tells us that the control of the stock is changing hands.
Be aware of that gap at 8.50 that might act as a resistance if the momentum is not strong enough.
The monitoring area, for scaling out, begins around 9.30.

Going Long!I see great potential in this. Almost looks like the same hype as the cannabis one, but less strong. Share your thoughts.
The reason why trading IS gambling (Why it's important)Hello everybody and welcome,
First of all, thank you for the interest you show.
The goal of this content, is to empower you with the tools you need to shift your psychology and level up your trading.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before we start, let me just say that I do not have any product to sell. My content is free and my only goal is to provide valuable information to help traders being more successful and consistent when trading.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some explanation regarding the introduction above :
What I want to emphasize through that example, is that often times, when trading, you will face losing streaks . It is inevitable and we can also assume that it is recurrent . It is important to note what happens in the mind of a trader : doubt .
Why ? Because of not accepting the fact that trading is gambling.
I know ... It might be hard to "accept" because people often times think that trading is all about skills, but it is not.
Let me explain :
When you trade, whether you are long or short, you rely on nothing else than other people to make profits. The problem is, you do not know if these people have the same convictions and beliefs as you do regarding what the market is going to do in the future.
So there's randomness involved in trading because every moment is unique, i.e. it involves different people.
But, if you have an edge, meaning a "strategy" that puts the odds in your favor (whatever it might be, trading pullbacks, momentum trading, morning panics, gap strategies, etc...) : YOU ARE THE HOUSE . You win over a LONG period of time no matter the outcome on a trade-to-trade basis.
Now, considering what we just said, should we care about what is going to happens to the trade I highlighted above ? Absolutely not. Why ? Because we have accepted the fact that the distribution between wins and losses is RANDOM in the market . Therefore, whatever the outcome is, we know, that we will be profitable in the long run.
Why does that actually matter ?
Well, it matters, because as I stated above, traders doubt when they encounter a losing streak. They question their edges, their skills, they start questioning their rules and strategies. What is likely to happen ? They blow their account.
Fear, the biggest enemy in trading
Apart from doubt, the trader that just has gone through 4,5,6,7 or more losses in a row, is afraid. He is afraid to put on that next trade, even though that trade could be a homerun and wipe all his losses.
Fear paralyzes us, it reduces our focus and narrows our attention to what we fear the most.
You probably recall the time when you put on a trade and you kept bagholding a loser, you were paralyzed, you just couldn't sell. There's a funny thing that happens everytime when you hold on to a loser, whenever you decide to sell, the market bounces back. This is because you are not alone on that boat and human psychology is universal.
Once you have accepted that, you will be able to focus 100% on your actual trading errors, which are related to your knowledge and your skills. You will never doubt or have a moment of indecision if your edge appear on the chart. You will take the trade and don't care at all what happens next, because you know that trying to figure out if it's going to work or not has no sense.
Thank you for taking the time to read me. I really appreciate that.

Thanks a lot,

Price Action & Psychology - Pattern & MTFAHello !
Key points
Triple bottom pattern
Price rejection
Significant support zone
Hourly chart : On that timeframe, we get a confirmation from the price rejection we see on the daily chart. The stock gapped down, triggered stop-losses and panic selling. Afterwards, we see a wide bullish candlestick (kind of "Tweezer Bottom") that has approximately the same volume.
I see two different ways to play that trade :
"Aggressive" entry : buying around the previous close
"Safer" entry : waiting for a breakout on the hourly chart
Either way, in my opinion the stop-loss should go above the Tweezer Bottom. On a 15-min chart, we see that the price action was pretty straightforward, kind of an instant correction from the morning panic.
Thanks for reading and if you have suggestions or want to discuss the idea, just leave a comment, I'll be happy to answer.

Price action & Psychology - First pullback after breakoutHello !
Key points :
Breakaway gap
Breakout on high volume
First pullback
Volume sinks
The stock consolidates within an ascending triangle, it gets rejected from that significant confluence zone (circled on the left). It makes higher lows but not higher highs, buying pressure slowly builds up, people gain in confidence and are willing to pay higher prices to get on board.
Finally, the stock breaks out - psychological shift in people's mind, they expect the price to go higher, therefore they are willing to pay higher prices. The pullback is caused by profit-taking. In fact, we see a decrease in volume that might keep on going today.
The Fibonacci Retracement is only a reference point, other people are monitoring these levels, which make them significant.
We will monitor the circled zone and wait for a "confirmation" that tells us that buyers are stepping in and that sellers are losing control.

Price action & Psychology - Inside trader's mindsHello !
Key points :
Double bottom
Volume on uptrends > volume on downtrends
Indecision + rising volume
It all starts with the halfway retracement. The stock makes a new low, buying pressure kicks in, drives price up. The halfway retracement is the result of traders taking profits, see how the volume fades ?
Anyway, the momentum is not enough to break through the resistance and keep the trend going, it reverses.
See how that 50% retracement seems to be a reference point, marked by the indecision candlestick (doji) and the spike in volume.
The gaps on the way up tell us that buyers are really aggressive (or covering their shorts).
On the way down, there's once again buying pressure (candlestick + volume) around that previous halfway retracement.
Note how the volume crumbles down and the bearish candlestick marks the last burst of the downtrend.
Volume is rising, there's still a healthy balance between buyers and sellers, we should see an increase in traded shares today.
Summary :
Those that bought too early (circled zone) either sold or are still holding (an might re-enter or add to their loser)
Some will probably buy the double bottom or the just the support
It is very unlikely that traders are going to short this zone
Those that have an open short position will cover

Price action & Psychology - Triple bottom, rejectionHello !
Key points:
Triple bottom
Rejection at support
Spike in volume
That price rejection actually tells us that people were afraid and panic sold at open, driving the price down until it encountered some buying pressure and price went back up.
When gauging this candlestick pattern, it is important that :
It is at a support level
Occurs after a selling wave
Shadow/wick goes below previous swing point low
A volume increase
An obvious wider price range
Look at the previous candlestick, it clearly tells us that there was some buying pressure but not enough momentum to carry the price up. Furthermore, it pulled back, I'd guess, halfway at previous "resistance" from the second bottom.

Price action & Psychology - Breakout and first pullbackHello !
I am so excited for the week ahead.
Key points :
Breakout after consolidation + spike in volume
Volume on uptrends is higher than on downtrends
First pullback after breakout (61.8% Fibonacci retracement)
Holding support despite the fact that the overall market was down on friday
Context
The interesting thing on this chart, is that before the consolidation, a double bottom formed. Anyway, the momentum was not important enough to break through the resistance. After consolidating and pulling back halfway (from the second bottom), enough momentum was gathered to breakout, which explains the spike in volume.
This also tells us, that a psychological shift happened : there's been more greed and a stronger conviction (wide range candle and spike in volume).
The plan
Using the top-down method (i.e three screen method), the weekly chart gives us an insight of the bigger picture. The first resistance on the weekly chart is around 14.00. The "minor" resistance at 8.50 is more of a level to watch.
The more candle (i.e confluence) there is around an area, the stronger it is. Anyway, I plan the trade up to that level and I decide what to do once it reaches it.

⭐Psychological knowledge is basis for starts trading. Today I would like to talk about this.👌🏻
Probably, you have heard, that among of traders, only 5% are successful.
🧐And what about the remaining 95%? These 95% make up the usual crowd, which was grew up like everyone else.🤜🏻 Therefore, many of you are "like everyone else."
And you will act “like everyone else” in the markets, and, will losing your money. 💸💸💸
The secret is not in a miracle of indicators and not fantastically profitable trading systems. 🙅🏻♀️
🙉 Everything is only in your head. 🙉
🏹You need to change yourself a little, learn to think in other categories in order to become successful. 🏹
💡You are responsible for your emotions and actions yourself. 💡
In the market it's important how you can manage yourself and your money. 🤑
The market is a game without a beginning and an end, and even without a middle: it all depends on your own plan. 💍

✔You need to achieve a strong self-confidence. ✔
🔪The vice, that killed many traders is greed. Many of us want to achieve everything at once. 🔪
Greed is basis for other vices, such as impatience and excitement. Your greed is enjoyed by other, more experienced players.😎
🚷Fear and greed are the basis people’s problems. 🚷
Forget about it existence, when you open a trading terminal.

Don't FOMO here on LTC (Some words of advice.)I'm going to give you a few words of wisdom, so pay attention. Don't FOMO Buy. We've been seeing massive moves over the last few days and it's impossible not to feel left out. But don't suddenly start trading positions that will give you +30% or +40% gains.
If you want to still be around in the long run, if you consider yourself a serious trader, keep scalping those simple and clean trades. I present a 8.5% long opportunity here on Litecoin. I'd say it is already on the high side.
We see a nice bounce here on the $51 level that we can connect with resistance we've seen in early March. The resistance we had from early April is now turning into support through the S/R flip.
We have all the ingredients for a nice long trade here. The markets are bullish, and this is a very healthy retracement. This could be a great moment to enter a position on LTC.
Stay safe everyone.

Price action & Psycholog - Pullback and gapsHello !
Key points :
Support : important zone on weekly chart, amplified by breakaway gap, previous resistance on daily chart
Pullback 50% Fibonacci
Exhaustion gaps coupled with higher trading volume
Despite the market drop on friday, it held the support
The support is on an important zone on the weekly chart, which explains why the breakaway gap formed. I can imagine people thinking "if it's not holding the support I'm selling" and some people started (probably because the overall market was weak) bidding lower prices pre-market.
On the way up, it is very clear that the stock encountered a resistance on that particular zone. The fact that it broke out, means that there has been a psychological shift in people's thinking. Which makes this zone now a decent support.

How to Trade Directly After The BTC Surge.Everyone knows I am well known for my analyses on psychological support and resistance zones and their strong predictive capabilities.
We just found two new important psychological levels in the last two days. One psychological resistance at 9450 and one psychological support at 8400.
-- quick reminder on these beautiful round number levels --
Computer scripts don't come up with these round numbers, humans do. You can see human trading behavior at work here, along with human psychology. This is exactly where humans would put their limit orders, or where they will put price alarms. Let's compare the different kind of support and resistance lines you can draw. First, there are the most common ones based on past price behavior. A local high will be extend on the chart to indicate that this has been a point where price has historically bounced. This has medium predictive power. Secondly, there are psychological levels without any price action. Simply looking at a chart and seeing ETH is about to hit $150 should make you conscious about having psychological resistance. You can add these lines to your chart. Thirdly, there is confluence between psychological and price based support or resistance. Those are the ones I charted here for you. These have incredible predictive power. Keep an eye on them. They are important.
When we combine the 9450 and the 8400 levels with the price based resistance of slightly below the $9000 level, I see the price struggling a lot to break through the $9000. I expect it will show a healthy retracement and cool down a little moving in the direction of the psychological support zone of $8400.
Then, the bears will make space again for the bulls, and we can expect a trade at least until the current resistance area. This can give us a nice 5% trade.
Remember, don't FOMO buy after you've seen these massive gains. Don't go for crazy returns. This 5% trade set-up is enough for me, and it should be enough for you.
Don't worry. You will get plenty more opportunities.

Price action & Psychology - Resistance, consolid., continuationHello !
Key points :
Resistance broken on high volume and wide range candles
Consolidation phase and support hold
Huge price rejection on the hourly + high volume
Relative strength (compared to today's market conditions)
I've left some charting from the previous trade on this analysis, to get a context. On the previous analysis, we said that basically, what happens after an "ABCD" pattern, is that the "D" makes a new low (depending on what chart you're looking at it must not be an all-time low). So we're entering a new trend. As we know, stocks nearly always move in waves (higher highs, higher lows when uptrending, reverse for downtrending).
What happens here, is that the stock needs some room to "breathe" before resuming the trend. Some people are taking profits (like I did yesterday), others are joining the party, while others wait on the sidelines.
BUT , there's still a "healthy" balance between the different actors, otherwise, if the conviction was gone or there would have been enough sellers to absorb the buy orders, the stock would have reversed right away.
The 2 reasons for a stock price (or any other security) to go up (reverse for down)
Fundamentally, there are 2 reasons :
There are not enough sellers to absorb buy orders (buyers > sellers)
Traders/investors think that the stock is cheap (they have the belief that the stock will go up in the future, i.e. the conviction)

Striking similaritySweden had no lockdown, Europe did.
EURSEK going to zero like BTC.
Curious to see what happens. Let's check again in a few days.
Same idea as Bitcoin back then for me. If I see a double bottom I will buy.
All the brainlets should buy, if it goes up they will have "missed out" lmao.
There's very little retail interest in this, I won't get to see the "bull market is back" reactions :(
Hey maybe central bankers and investment banks are going to claim "bull market is back" 🐻😆

Trading Tips for consistency 1- Find one repetable pattern on a specific timeframe and track it on excel to know the exact % win rate.
2- patterns are more powerful than technical indicators, imho indicators should be only used for signal entries and nothin more than that. Remember all indicators are lagging indicators so patterns remains more powerful.
3- the ability to master oneself and stay disciplined to wait and wait for your specific setup to CONFIRM.
4- DONT anticipate you must wait for CONFIRMATION only.
5- max loss per trade. Risk management is the king of the game and you must have a pre defined max risk per trade BEFORE you even enter into a trade.
6- use HARD STOPS. As soon as you enter into a trade you must set your hard stop immediately.
7- if new imho u must use max risk of 2% of ur equity on each trade as a max risk, if you are exprienced then you are allowed to use more.
8- Journal your trades, take screenshots of your charts with entries nd exits, as well as joirnal your thoughts before you trade, during and after you exit the trade. Remember this game is 80% psychology so tracking your emotions is KEY to success as a trader.
I wish you all success 🙏

Bullish ETH Is About To Break Through a Psychological ResistanceIn this idea I will explain how you can leverage psychological support and resistance levels for trading ETH/USD. This will help you earn more money while trading, and gives you more understanding about the markets. I have been talking about this for quite a while now, and every time it shows that it works again and again.
We have seen so far that the price loves to oscillate between these beautiful support and resistance levels. If the price breaks through the psychological resistance of $200 I expect we will start trading in a higher zone between $200 and $240.
I will split this idea in multiple aspects. First of all, I will go into ETH/USD and explain the most important levels on the chart based on the principals of human psychology. Then, I will explain why I believe the cryptocurrency markets have a much stronger tendency to behave according to these principles than any other markets. Last, I will explain how you can benefit from these concepts.
-- What are these psychological levels you are talking about? --
Look at how BEAUTIFUL all the numbers are on my chart. They are all incredibly round numbers, which match perfectly to the levels of support and resistance . The levels that I identified are:
$290 ( resistance level 3)
$240 ( resistance level 2)
$200 ( resistance level 1)
$175 ( support level 1)
$150 ( support level 2)
$125 ( support level 3)
$90 ( support level 4)
Computer scripts don't come up with these round numbers, humans do. You can see human trading behavior at work here, along with human psychology. This is exactly where humans would put their limit orders, or where they will put price alarms. Let's compare the different kind of support and resistance lines you can draw. First, there are the most common ones based on past price behavior. A local high will be extend on the chart to indicate that this has been a point where price has historically bounced. This has medium predictive power. Secondly, there are psychological levels without any price action. Simply looking at a chart and seeing ETH is about to hit $150 should make you conscious about having psychological resistance. You can add these lines to your chart. Thirdly, there is confluence between psychological and price based support or resistance. Those are the ones I charted here for you. These have incredible predictive power. Keep an eye on them. They are important.
A great way to confirm these level is by zooming out and going back in time. I tried to show it on the chart here, but it would simply get too cluttered if I show you multiple timeframes. If you take these levels, and you zoom out, you see that the same levels are important over and over again. These levels can perfectly predict highs and lows throughout months, even years. This is why you should always add these on your chart! It works 100x better for USD pairs than for BTC pairs. So don't forget to look at your USD pairs too when you are trading.
-- Why do cryptocurrency markets have a strong tendency to have these human levels --
It's simple: liquidity. The big banks with their big algorithms have the task to take one billion, and turn it into two billion. The entire marketcap of Bitcoin is only 125 billion, the trading volume for BTC USDT is only around $500M on a given day at the largest exchanges. It's simply not lucrative. The only thing you can do in the current crypto markets, is take your one thousand dollars, and try to turn it into two thousand. This scales a bit further on the larger market caps such as BTC and ETH, sure, but for a maxium you can make try to turn one million into two million. That's pretty much it.
The conclusion of all of this is that the big algorithmic traders don't even want to be here, they couldn't care less. This is a field for traders who play with crypto as their hobby, people with some spare time on their hands. Perhaps.... you! The reader. And me, yours truly. There are normal people trading on the cryptocurrency markets. This is what causes the price to have these decimal-perfect support and resistance zones. And this is why you'd want to put so much attention into these areas while trading cryptocurrency.
-- So, How Do I Beat Other Human Traders? --
Think carefully about where you put your limit orders. If the resistance is at 9200, don't put your limit order at 9201 right above a huge resistance. Be smart, and put it at 9199 or even a little bit lower. This reduces your profits only slightly, while greatly increasing the odds that your limit price will be hit. This also works for buy orders, never put those on round price levels. Instead, look for non-round numbers slightly disadvantageous to the profit, but very positive for your hitrate.

Price action & Psychology - ABCD Pattern, what's next ?Hello !
Key points :
New trend starting after ABCD pattern
First pullback occuring on 50% retracement
Volume on uptrend is higher than downtrend
Consolidation taking place
ABCD Pattern
This isn't a quite regular ABCD pattern, even though the time between AB and CD is almost equal (or near). What I look for when trading this pattern, is either the pattern himself (buying the "D", or the "new low") or what happens after it. In most cases the "D" from the pattern marks the start of a new trend.
Volume & first pullback
You can see that the volume that made the stock go up (from the "D") is way higher than the volume that formed the pullback. Some traders toke profits while others sold for a losing trade because they bought too late (greed).
Consolidation
Recognize a consolidation :
1) Narrow range
2) Low volume
3) Support zone

Price action & Psychology - Triple bottom reversalHello !
Key points :
Triple bottom pattern
Rising volume
Price rejection ("hammer" formation) on higher volume than previous sessions
Rising volume ?
On this particular chart, it doesn't seem like the volume is actually rising. This is because the chart shows the data only for the current exchange (Cboe BZX). On my brokers account, I am able to see the overall data (in this case volume). In fact, if you combine the volume of shares traded on every exchange, you get a very different picture of what's really happening (see screenshot below).
ibb.co
Earnings call
Everytime I get into a trade, no matter what happens, I always liquidate before they present their earnings.

Price action & Psychology - Triple bottom reversalHello !
Key points :
Triple bottom pattern (laws of mass psychology, in my opinion a very reliable pattern)
Support held despite high volume
Indecision rises even though overall market turmoil ( relative strength )
Rising volume compared to the previous trading session
I usually never wait for the breakout when trading double or triple bottoms. I tend to buy the bottom immediately. Therefore, I will use the 4.00 zone as my initial target. If the reversal happens and my target is reached I decide whether I hold or sell based on the current conditions.
Using the S&P500 index as a guide
On my S&P500 chart I have the Williams %R (3) indicator plotted. I noticed that during that market crash, whenever the indicator enters the oversold zone (< -75) the S&P500 tends to bounce back up.

Price action & Psychology - First pullbackHello !
Key points :
Fading volume : The fact that volume is fading indicates that the pullback is losing momentum, we should see an increase in volume tomorrow compared to today. Interest in stock is rising.
The wide range bullish candlesticks shows that bulls are strong and there's actually interest in the stocks (i.e. those that didn't trade have a chance to buy now)
The stock gapped down, probably out of fear considering the overall market conditions, there's been a selling wave driving prices down but bulls caught up
***Disclaimer : This is not an advice to buy the stock. You should never ever blindly follow a trader's idea without knowing exactly what he talks about.***
