$SOL Trying For W Patter ReversalTHE MARKET REALLY WANTS TO GO UP.
Stronger coins, such as CRYPTOCAP:SOL
keep putting in higher lows.
If we close above the EMA9 on the Daily that will be really telling.
A bit premature to call a reversal, but I’ve been speculating on this W reversal pattern forming since Trump announced the Crypto Strategic Reserve.
Perfect setup for that.
The lack of liquidity is the only thing holding back the reversal and reason for the pump n dumps on every bit of news.

For about 5 years Amd has been trading in a decent rising channel formation. That's exactly the reason for why we saw the harsh drop starting in the beginning of 2024. But as we are speaking, Amd is about to retest a massive confluence of support which could lead to a beautiful reversal.

How to Spot a Reversal Before It Happens (Before Your SL Hits)You know the feeling. You’re confidently riding a winning trend, high on the euphoria of green candles, when—BAM—the market flips faster than a politician in an election year. Your once-perfect trade is now a humiliating red mess, and your stop loss is the only thing standing between you and financial pain.
But what if you could see that reversal coming before it smacks you in the face? What if, instead of watching your profits evaporate, you could exit like a pro—or better yet, flip your position and ride the reversal in the other direction?
Reversals don’t happen out of thin air. The signs are always there—you just have to know where to look. In this idea, we break down how to spot reversals before they happen.
😉 Price Action: The Market’s Way of Dropping Hints
Markets don’t just change direction because they feel like it. Reversals happen when sentiment shifts—when buyers and sellers agree, sometimes all at once, that the current trend has run its course.
The first clue? Price action itself.
Look for hesitation. A strong uptrend should be making higher highs and higher lows. A downtrend should be carving out lower lows and lower highs. But what happens when that rhythm starts breaking?
A higher high forms, but the next low dips below the previous one? Warning sign.
Price approaches a key resistance level, but momentum stalls, and candles start looking indecisive? Caution flag.
A massive engulfing candle wipes out the last three sessions? Somebody just hit the eject button.
Before markets reverse, they throw up some red flags first—and depending on your time frame, these red flags can give you a heads up so you can prepare for what’s coming.
🔑 Divergence: When Your Indicators Are Screaming "Lies!"
Indicators might be lagging, but they’re not useless—especially when they start disagreeing with price.
This is where divergence comes in. If the price is making new highs, but your favorite momentum indicator (RSI, MACD, Stochastic—you name it) isn’t? That’s a major warning sign.
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high, but RSI or MACD makes a lower high. Translation? The momentum behind the move is fizzling out.
Bullish Divergence: Price makes a lower low, but RSI or MACD makes a higher low. Translation? Sellers are losing their grip, and a bounce might be coming.
Divergences don’t mean immediate reversals, but they do suggest that something’s off. And when the market starts whispering, it’s best to listen before it starts shouting.
📍 Volume: Who’s Actually Driving the Move?
A trend without volume is like a car running on fumes—it’s only a matter of time before it stalls.
One of the clearest signs of a potential reversal is a divergence between price and volume.
If price is pushing higher, but volume is drying up? Buyers are getting exhausted.
If price is tanking, but selling volume isn’t increasing? The bears might be running out of steam.
If a major support or resistance level gets tested with huge volume and a violent rejection? That’s not a coincidence—it’s a battle, and one side is losing.
Reversals tend to be violent because traders are caught off guard. Watching the volume can help you avoid being one of them.
📊 Key Levels: Where the Market Loves to Reverse
Price doesn’t move in a vacuum. There are levels where reversals love to happen.
Support and Resistance: The most obvious, yet most ignored. When price approaches a level that’s been historically respected, pay attention.
Fibonacci Retracements: Markets are weirdly obsessed with 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8% retracement levels. If a trend starts stalling near these zones, don’t ignore it.
Psychological Numbers: Round numbers (like 1.2000 in Forex , $500 in stocks , or $120,000 in Bitcoin BITSTAMP:BTCUSD act like magnets. The more traders fixate on them, the more likely they become reversal points.
Smart money isn’t chasing prices randomly. They’re watching these levels—and if you’re not, you might consider doing it.
🚨 Candlestick Warnings: When the Market Paints a Picture
Candlesticks aren’t just pretty chart elements that give you a sense of thrill—they tell stories. Some of them hint at “reversal.”
Doji: The ultimate indecision candle. If one pops up after a strong trend, the market is questioning itself.
Engulfing Candles: A single candle that completely erases the previous one? That’s power shifting sides.
Pin Bars (Hammer/Inverted Hammer, Shooting Star): Long wicks show rejection. When they appear at key levels, reversals often follow.
Candlestick patterns alone aren’t enough, but when they show up alongside other reversal signals, they’re hard to ignore.
📰 The News Factor: When Fundamentals Crash the Party
Technical traders like to pretend breaking news doesn’t matter—until it does.
Earnings reports , economic data , interest rate decisions ECONOMICS:USINTR —these events can turn a strong trend into a dumpster fire instantly.
A stock making all-time highs right before earnings? Tread carefully.
A currency pair trending up before an inflation report? One bad number, and it’s lights out.
A crypto rally before a major regulation announcement? That could end badly.
Reversals don’t always come from charts alone. Sometimes, they come from the real world. And the market rarely gives second chances.
✨ The Reversal Cheat Sheet: When Everything Aligns
A single signal doesn’t guarantee a reversal. But when multiple factors line up? That’s when you need to take action.
If you see:
✅ Divergence on indicators
✅ Volume drying up or spiking at a key level
✅ A major support/resistance level getting tested
✅ Reversal candlestick patterns forming
✅ News lurking in the background
Then congratulations—you’ve likely spotted a reversal before your stop loss takes the hit.
✍ Conclusion: Stay Ahead, Not Behind
Catching reversals before they happen isn’t magic—it’s just about knowing where to look. Price action, volume, key levels, indicators, and even the news all leave clues. The problem? Most traders only see them after their account takes the hit.
Don’t be most traders. Pay attention, recognize the signs, and act before the market flips the script on you.
Because the best time to spot a reversal? Before it happens.

US Market Reversal EmergedLast Friday marked the final trading day of February. I always take the opportunity to analyze the monthly chart closely.
We saw an inverted hammer. From the cash chart, clearly, we can see the inverted hammer. Beyond that, it also appears to be a potential double top for the Nasdaq.

EURCAD - Nearing A Massive Resistance!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
As per our last EURCAD analysis, it rejected our blue support zone and traded higher.
What's next?
📈EURCAD has been overall bullish, trading within the rising channel, however it is currently retesting the upper bound of the channel.
Moreover, the red zone is a strong resistance zone.
🏹 Thus, the highlighted red circle is a strong area to look for sell setups as it is the intersection of the resistance and upper blue trendline acting as a non-horizontal resistance.
📚 As per my trading style:
As #EURCAD approaches the red circle, I will be looking for bearish reversal setups (like a double top pattern, trendline break , and so on...)
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!

DDOG's Shakeout & Squeeze: The Setup for an Explosive Reversal?The price of DDOG appears poised for a dip slightly below the upward trendline and Fibonacci support zone (126-116) before finding strong support. This could act as a liquidity grab, shaking out weaker positions before an explosive move higher. Compression on the weekly timeframe would be an ideal signal, with tight price action and decreasing volatility indicating accumulation. A bullish reversal confirmation, such as a strong engulfing candle, pin bar, or a breakout above short-term resistance, would provide a high-probability entry. Monitoring RSI for a hold above oversold levels and a curl upward, along with volume expansion on the breakout, will add further conviction to the trade.

US500 - Follow the Optimism!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈 As per my latest US500 analysis (attached to the chart), it rejected the blue circle zone and surged by over 5%.
What's next?
🏹 As long as US500 remains within the short-term rising channel marked in red, any bearish movement toward the lower red trendline should be considered a correction and a potential opportunity to look for trend-following long positions.

BTC - Are You Ready?Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
BTC has been stagnant for a while, trading within a short-term bearish range!
But the wait is almost over, as BTC is now approaching the $100,000 mark, which represents the upper boundary of the bearish zone.
📈 Short-Term Bullish:
If BTC breaks above the $100,000 level, it is expected to enter a short-term bullish phase, potentially retesting its previous all-time high of $109,000.
However, as long as BTC remains below $100,000, the overall bias will stay bearish.

GBPCHF - Head and Shoulders SetupHello traders,
On the daily timeframe GBPCHF has been consolidating in a range. Now it is at the resistance level of the range and so we should be looking for shorting opportunities.
On the lower timeframes, the 4H and 2H, it has formed a head and shoulders pattern which is a great reversal pattern.
Add to this the RSI divergence which in many occasions foreshadows the change in trend.
I will be entering when we get a close below the neckline on the 2H timeframe.
GU Ascends From Triangle - Breakout & Retest Set-UpFX:GBPUSD ended last week with a Bullish Price Breakout of the Ascending Triangle that it fell into after breaking down below Support-Turned-Resistance and finding Support at the October 2023 Lows last month.
Overall indicators suggest we could be experiencing a Valid Breakout of this pattern due to:
1) Strong Breaker Bar with Close outside of Range
2) Based on the Range from High to Low of the Ascending Triangle, Price made a 26% move beyond the break
3) Bullish Volume following Break
4) RSI Above 50
The Confirmation of Valid Break will come if price is able to:
1) Close 3 - 5 Days outside of pattern
2) Price successfully is Supported by Previous Structure Broken
3) Bullish Volume Builds on Retest
When the Breakout is Validated, Buying opportunities could be delivered in the ( 1.2525 - 1.2485 ) Range on the retest with an immediate Target Profit at the December 2024 Resistance laying overhead at the ( 1.28 - 1.29 ) Range
Fundamentally, this month we saw BOE make a 25bps rate cut down to 4.50% with GBP having quite a positive increase in GDP (+.3%) which could be inflationary. USD showed a slight uptick in CPI (+.1% y/y) strengthening the stance on minimal Rate Cutes this year but a big miss in Retail Sales, Unemployment Claims and Non-Farm Employment!
GBP:
Tuesday - Claimont Count Change/ BOE Gov. Bailey Speaks
Wednesday - CPI
Thursday - Consumer Confidence
Friday - Retail Sales/ Flash Manufacturing PMI/ Flash Services PMI
USD:
Monday - Presidents Day (Bank Holiday)
Tuesday - Empire State Manufacturing Index
Wednesday - FOMC Meeting Minutes
Thursday - Unemployment Claims/ Philly Fed Manufacturing Index/ Crude Oil Inventories
Friday - Flash Manufacturing PMI/ Flash Services PMI/ Existing Home Sales
TRIP at a Make-or-Break Moment: Reversal Incoming?TRIP is currently testing a major descending trendline resistance around $18.85-$19.00, a critical level that could determine its next move. If price breaks and holds above this resistance, it may trigger a shift in trend, with the next key target at $27.15. However, failure to break out could result in a pullback to the $16.00-$17.00 support zone. The increasing volume suggests renewed interest, but the stock remains in a downtrend until proven otherwise. If momentum weakens here, a potential retest of lower supports near $12.00 could occur. This is a pivotal moment—either TRIP breaks out and signals strength, or it remains trapped within its multi-year downtrend.

TTD, where do we go from here?A significant sell-off in The Trade Desk (TTD) followed its earnings report, driving the price toward a critical technical zone. The 76.45 - 80.16 range has historically acted as a strong support area, with multiple price interactions suggesting institutional buying interest in the past.
If the price holds this zone as support and RSI begins to recover, a potential bounce toward the 96.50 resistance level could occur. Price action at in this zone will be key—if buyers step in, a short-term rebound may follow. However, a break below 76 with rising volume could indicate further downside, potentially leading to lower support levels.

FARTCOIN INVERSE H&S ??A clear head and shoulder pattern seems to be forming around a key HTF S/R Level. It is my belief that we are currently at the "right shoulder" which is level with "left shoulder" and notably higher than the "head".
Should price climb back above the KEY S/R and above the 1H 200 EMA level (purple MA) that would mark a series of higher lows from the head onwards and a clear move up to the neckline. Should price clear the neckline I could see a mirrored price move of the way down going the other way working towards the bearish orderblock.
Now like with all altcoins currently, this move does rely on BTC making a similar bullish move, if bitcoin were to roll over and go sub $91,000 then FARTCOIN and others will continue the bearish trend as shown in the chart.
As always these are just my thoughts and could very well be wrong, if so it's best to have a plan in place and proper risk management.
GBPJPY Inverse Head & Shoulders Set-UpOANDA:GBPJPY has formed the Bullish Reversal Pattern, Inverse Head & Shoulders!
Price has broken up above the Down-sloping Neckline to confirm the pattern.
Once the Break is Validated by retesting the Neckline and is Supported, the pattern could deliver a good buying opportunity around the 188.5 area to take up to the February Resistance Level and potentially further!
Fundamentally,
GBP has GDP on Thursday
**Beware of False Break creating a Bearish Trap. Watch for adequate Bullish Volume to Follow the Break and the Retest suggesting Bulls are interested!

📈 EURGBP has been bearish trading within the falling wedge pattern in blue.
Currently, EURGBP is approaching the upper bound of the wedge.
Moreover, the orange zone is a strong structure.

📈 USDCAD has been overall bullish , trading within the rising wedge pattern marked in blue.
Today, USDCAD broke above its previous major high (marked in red).
