USOIL - Bracketing A Breakout Opportunity As traders we want to be predictive in our analysis and reactive in our execution. And there is no easier way to follow through with this concept then on a bracketed breakout trading opportunity. Oil has recently been on a short-term bullish run which has ended with price entering a period of consolidation. Consolidation leads to expansion so I do expect a future breakout to occur. The question however is in which direction. If I knew the answer I would bet everything I have including the house and the kids on it but unfortunately I don't. (and my wife would kill me). What I do know, is that there's a good chance that the market will give us a clue of what direction it wants to continue in and that's what I'm waiting for with this trading opportunity.

GOLD (XAUUSD): 3100 soon?! Gold closed on Friday, consolidating within the intraday range. Probabilities are high that growth will resume next week. Your signal to buy will be a breakout of the underlined resistance on the hourly time frame. 1H candle close above 3087 will confirm the violation. A bullish continuation will be expected to 3100 level then. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️ I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

The breakout of the support level 25.20 accelerated the active impulse wave c of the higher impulse wave B from Janaury.

Best GOLD XAUUSD Consolidation Trading Strategy Explained In article , you will learn how to identify and trade consolidation on Gold easily. I will share with you my consolidation trading strategy and a lot of useful XAUUSD trading tips. 1. How to Identify Consolidation In order to trade consolidation, you should learn to recognize that. The best and reliable way to spot consolidation is to analyse a price action. Consolidation is the state of the market when it STOPS updating higher highs & higher lows in a bullish trend OR lower lows & lower highs in a bearish trend. In other words, it is the situation when the market IS NOT trending. Most of the time, during such a period, the price forms a horizontal channel. Above is a perfect example of a consolidation on Gold chart on a daily. We see a horizontal parallel channel with multiple equal or almost equal highs and lows inside. For a correct trading of a consolidation, you should correctly underline its boundaries. Following the chart above, the upper boundary - the resistance, is based on the highest high and the highest candle close. The lowest candle close and the lowest low compose the lower boundary - the support. 2. What Consolidation Means Spotting the consolidating market, it is important to understand its meaning and the processes that happen inside. Consolidation signifies that the market found a fair value. Growth and bullish impulses occur because of the excess of demand on the market, while bearish moves happen because of the excess of supply. When supply and demand find a balance, sideways movements start . Look at the price movements on Gold above. First, the market was rising because of a strong buying pressure. Finally, the excess of buying interest was curbed by the sellers. The market started to trade with a sideways range and found the equilibrium At some moment, demand started to exceed the supply again and the consolidation was violated . The price updated the high and continued growth. Usually, the violation of the consolidation happens because of some fundamental event that makes the market participants reassess the value of the asset. At the same time, the institutional traders, the smart money accumulate their trading positions within the consolidation ranges. As the accumulation completes, they push the prices higher/lower, violating the consolidation. 3. How to Trade Consolidation Once you identified a consolidation on Gold, there are 2 strategies to trade it. The resistance of the consolidation provides a perfect zone to sell the market from. You simply put your stop loss above the resistance and your take profit should be the upper boundary of the support. That is the example of a long trade from support of the consolidation on Gold. The support of the sideways movement will be a safe zone to buy Gold from. Stop loss will lie below the support zone, take profit will be the lower boundary of the resistance. AS the price reached a take profit level and tested a resistance, that is a short trade from that. You can follow such a strategy till the price violates the consolidation and establishes a trend. The market may stay a very extended period of time in sideways, providing a lot of profitable trading opportunities. What I like about Gold consolidation trading is that the strategy is very straightforward and completely appropriate for beginners. It works on any time frame and can be used for intraday, swing trading and scalping ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️ I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

AAPL and MSFT Reading Charts For Better Entries and ExitsOptions Trading Strategy Using Ichimoku Cloud, 200 SMA & Monthly Contracts (Following Your 3 Trading Rules) This strategy adapts the Ichimoku Cloud & 200 SMA trend-following method for trading monthly options contracts with a focus on high-probability setups. It leverages time decay (theta), trend strength, and proper timing to maximize gains while reducing risk. 🔹 Strategy Overview We will trade monthly options contracts using: Trend confirmation via Ichimoku Cloud & 200 SMA Directional bias based on price positioning Entry timing rules to avoid low-probability setups Theta-friendly positioning (avoiding weeklies to reduce time decay risks) 📈 Trading Rules & Setup (My 3 Golden Rules) 🚫 No trading on Mondays → Avoids choppy market structure from weekend gaps. 🚫 No trading on Fridays → Avoids gamma risk and weekend time decay. ⏳ No trades before the first 15-minute candle closes → Ensures market direction is established. 📊 Selecting the Right Option Contract For monthly expiration contracts, select options that: Expire within 30 to 60 days (avoid weekly contracts to minimize rapid time decay). Are slightly in-the-money (ITM) or at-the-money (ATM) for higher delta (0.55–0.70). Have open interest >1,000 and a tight bid-ask spread to ensure liquidity. Example: If today is June 11, trade the July monthly contract (third Friday of the month). 📉 Bearish Put Play (Short Trade) 200 SMA Bias: Price is below the 200 SMA Ichimoku Cloud Confirmation: Price is below the cloud Tenkan-sen is below Kijun-sen (bearish momentum) Chikou Span is below price from 26 candles ago Future cloud is red Entry Trigger (After First 15 Min Candle): Price pulls back into the Kijun-sen but rejects it OR price breaks below the cloud after a weak consolidation Enter PUT contract (monthly expiration) Stop Loss & Take Profit: SL: Above Kijun-sen or recent swing high TP: First at the cloud’s lower edge, second at a key support level Exit before Theta decay accelerates (last 14 days before expiry) 📈 Bullish Call Play (Long Trade) 200 SMA Bias: Price is above the 200 SMA Ichimoku Cloud Confirmation: Price is above the cloud Tenkan-sen is above Kijun-sen (bullish momentum) Chikou Span is above price from 26 candles ago Future cloud is green Entry Trigger (After First 15 Min Candle): Price pulls back into the Kijun-sen but holds OR price breaks out above the cloud Enter CALL contract (monthly expiration) Stop Loss & Take Profit: SL: Below Kijun-sen or recent swing low TP: First at the cloud’s upper edge, second at a key resistance level 📊 Trade Management & Adjustments Rolling: If trade is profitable near expiry but not at the full target, roll to the next monthly contract. Closing Early: If the trade is at 70-80% max profit, close early to avoid decay risk. Cutting Losses: If price closes inside the Ichimoku Cloud, consider exiting early (trend loss warning). 🛠 Why This Works for Monthly Options? ✅ Avoids time decay risks of weekly options by trading monthly contracts. ✅ Uses strong trend confirmation from Ichimoku & 200 SMA. ✅ Only trades at high-probability times, avoiding choppy Monday & Friday moves. ✅ Allows scaling into strong trends rather than short-term noise.

Is SOL/BTC following the ETH/BTC distribution pattern? As the big red weekly candle closes for BTC, we should see some volatility this week. Solana valued in BTC has exited a rectangular distribution topping pattern. Failure to recapture the rectangular box and enter back into it in a spring like move is looking increasingly unlikely. Ethereum valued in BTC followed a very similar pattern in Nov 2023, exiting the rectangular distribution rectangle and fell much much lower. The 50 week (blue line) and 200 week (purple line) moving averages also follow a similar trajectory for both instruments / coins. If SOL / BTC does not recover into the box, and fast I will be exiting a long term position I hold. Defensive Strategy based on this chart and the USD chart warrants consideration PUKA

GOLD (XAUUSD): Consolidation Continues On a yesterday's live stream, we discussed that Gold is consolidating within a horizontal range. After a test of its resistance, we got a local sideways movement and distribution. Violation of its minor support is a strong intraday bearish signal.

SPX SPY Trading Range or BO? Daily Chart Analysis - 5 Mar 2025 • The market traded lower earlier in the day. The market then reversed higher for most of the day around noon time. The SPX then pulled back off its high in the final 30 minutes of the day. • The bulls see the market trading in a broad bull channel and want the move to continue for months. They want an endless pullback bull trend. • They want a retest of the all-time high (Dec 6) followed by a breakout and trend resumption. They see the current move as a bull leg within the trading range. • They want a reversal from a double bottom bull flag (Jan 13 and Mar 4) and a wedge (Feb 25, Feb 28, and Mar 4). • They hope the bottom of the 22-week trading range will act as support. They want a failed breakout below the January 13 low. • At the least, they want a retest of the middle of the trading range (around the 20-day EMA). • If the market trades lower, they want the November 4 or October 3 low to act as support. • The bears got a reversal from a higher high major trend reversal, a wedge top (Dec 6, Jan 24, and Feb 19), and a smaller double top (Jan 24 and Feb 19). • They see the market as being in a 22-week trading range. • They hope to get a bear leg to retest the January 13 low followed by a breakout below. They got it yesterday (Mar 4). • Next, the bears want a breakout below the January 13 low, followed by a measured move based on the height of the 22-week trading range. • If the market trades higher, they want the bear trend line or the 20-day EMA to act as resistance. • They want at least a small second leg sideways to down to retest the March 4 low. • So far, the market is trading in a 22-week trading range. • The SPX broke below the January 13 low yesterday (Mar 4) and traders want to see if there are any follow-through selling. • Or will the market form a pullback, followed by a second leg sideways to down to retest the March 4 low after that? • Traders may BLSH (Buy Low, Sell High) within the trading range until there is a breakout from either direction with follow-through buying/selling. • The bears must create a strong breakout below the January 13 low with follow-through selling to convince traders a breakout could be underway.
