BITCOIN TETHER BINANCE 1H BOTTOM ROTATION TRADEStep #1: Wait until Tether Cryptocurrency price moves in a horizontal consolidation
After a strong bearish trend wait until the market starts to develop a horizontal consolidation where the price moves back and forth without any clear direction. We need to see a perfect horizontal consolidation as part of the bottom rotation setup.
The consolidation is the first price structure that needs to be satisfied for being able to catch a falling knife.
During these times of consolidation when the cryptocurrency price moves back and forth the institutional money accumulates their positions.
However, before the trend reversal to happen, the smart money will deploy one more trick to fool the retail traders. See below:
Step #2: Wait for a fast breakout (clear-out of stop losses) of the support level
Right before the reversal to happen, you’ll often time notice a false breakout below the consolidation support level. There is no conspiracy that stop hunting do happen in all markets and this trade setup clearly emphasizes this aspect.
Two things happen when we break away from this consolidation, and both things are adding confluence to the bullish case scenario:
The stop losses of those who got long off of support will get triggered.
New traders will short the market because of the downside breakout.
Step #3: The breakout need to be faded at the same speed as the Tether Cryptocurrency Price dropped.
The key characteristic of this reversal setup is that we need to see a quick rally after the initial support false breakout. The false breakout followed by the quick recovery should develop a “V” shape type bottom.
Step #4: Buy at the first close above the broken support level. You can have a second entry once we break above the top of consolidation.
You can buy once the cryptocurrency Tether price closes back above the broken support level. You can initiate a first small position and buy cryptocurrency Tether once we close back above the previous support level.
It’s always nice to buy cryptocurrencies at the bottom and see it shoot up.
It kind of depends on your trading style and risk tolerance how you manage your trades, but we always recommend on the first initial position to only allocate a low amount of your trading capital. You have to keep in mind that the reversal is completed only after we have a break in market structure and subsequently a breakout of the top of the range.
Once we see a break to the upside of that sideways action, the reversal has been confirmed and you can consider this to be a swing trade. Generally, with this situation you can close the initial trade so we can have a risk-free trade.
Step #5: Place Protective Stop Loss below the “V” bottom and the Second SL below the Consolidation Bottom
The ideal place to hide your protective stop loss is few pips below the “V” shape bottom. For the second entry use a protective stop loss below the consolidation support level.
Also, since the first trade is closed once the consolidation top is broken we basically ensure an almost risk-free trade on the second position. We’re going to use the profits made on the first trade to ride the trend reversal.
Step #6: Take Profit equals two times the consolidation price range.
We use a simple dynamic take profit strategy.
We simply measure the consolidation price range, multiply it by two and project that number to the upside to determine out take profit. The easiest way to visualize your take profit level is to simply draw a box around your consolidation and copy paste that box two times to the upside.

Signal Stream - AUDCHF Long SignalJust now getting some time to sit down and make a few posts. There have been a number of excellent signals generated lately.
** Note - lines were drawn by me. The vertical lines are where the signal generated, and the horizontal lines are initial close range targets.
This pair has been ranging strongly in the past few weeks.
A long signal appeared towards the bottom of the range, one of the strongest setups for Signal Stream trades.
Initial close range target for this trade fell roughly in the middle of the trading range at 0.73513
In situations like this I tend to stay content with my initial target and close out the trade once the level is reached. Given that we're in a range, price could just as easily move back against us.
What I really mean to say by that is that I don't expect to have huge trades running in my direction forever by these types of trades.
But they really do work quite well with initial targets.
There are many ways to trade Signal Stream.
Signal Stream signals have a high chance of hitting their targets even if the market moves in the opposite direction, long after the signal appears.
It's like the market is attracted back to these levels if they don't hit it immediately.

QTUM/DOLLAR 2H DARVA BOX STRATEGYStep #1: Identify at least two Darvas boxes that are on top of each other
The first trading rule is to let the market develop at least two Darvas Boxes. Basically, the two Darvas boxes are showing that the market is starting to move in steps to the downside. So at this point, the market also should be making lower highs followed by lower lows, which is the basic definition of an downtrend.
In the real world, you’ll notice that the Darvas boxes don’t perfectly stack on top of each other. You’ll rarely find a series of Darvas boxes where the following box has the bottom perfectly aligned with the top/bottom of the previous box.
You will notice that the price range of the second Darvas box can move into the space of the first Darvas box which still qualify for a valid Darvas box.
Note* Big candle wicks are ignored when drawing the Darvas box. Use the closing price instead.
Step #2: Draw a support line in the middle of the first Darvas box
We’ve noted that there is no such thing as perfection when dealing with the price action. And since the Darvas boxes tend to overlap, another characteristic is that in most of the cases the top/bottom of the current box won’t exceed the middle of the previous Darvas box.
In this case, we can anticipate that the third Darvas box will develop its top around the middle or bottom of the second Darvas box.
Step #3: How to sell QTUM: Sell when we test the middle or bottom of the 2nd Darvas Box
We want to buy low and sell high because that’s the rule number one to make consistent profits.
We sell QTUM as soon as the middle or bottom of the 2nd Darvas box is tested this will ensure that we sell on a retracement in an already proven downtrend.
Step #4: Place your protective Stop Loss above resistance level in the second Darvas Box
Our improved cryptocurrency sell strategy comes with the advantage of providing us with a very tight stop loss. We can hide our protective stop loss within or above the second Darvas box.
A break above the second Darvas box will invalidate the whole price structure and it’s wise to get out of the trade as soon as possible.
Two things can measure the success of a trading strategy.
First, how tight the stop loss is and secondly the stop loss placement needs to be logical not just a random price coming out from over-optimization.
Step #5: Take profit needs to be 2 or 3 times more than your stop loss
Opening a trade is just the beginning; you also need an exit strategy to maximize your profits. It’s often said that it’s more important where you take profits than your entry strategy
The professional traders place more weight and attention on the exit strategy because that’s how they make money. Probably, this is one of the oldest trading secrets that smart money doesn’t want you to know.
