Stop

STOP LOSS: Your saving angelWhat is a stop loss? Why do i need to use it? Why should i listen? Stop loss is designed to limit an investor's loss, it is built FOR YOU. It's like fighting a boss without a weapon, yet there are multitudes of weapon ready to be used for you beside you. Why should i use a stop loss when my liquidation is far? MARKET VOLATILITY IS AT THE HIGHEST RIGHT NOW, not only cryptocurrency, but also stocks and commodities. The world is in shambles, and with 90% of the world experiencing a loss, we want to be in that 10% profiting from the volatility. I won't explain further how to set stop losses in binance or huobi, you can always do a simple google search or watch 2 minute videos on youtube. Literally. Sorry i cannot place any links in here. I know this is short, but long posts are generally skipped by most of the newbie traders like me. Lets hope we all can be millionaires soon. May you all and i be blessed with good luck.

GME - Break of the TriangleHello fellow Apes, I hope you are all doing well! In this analysis, we have are moving inside a huge triangle and are currently at the bottom. We are sitting on a KEY SUPPORT that I beleive we are going to hold and go to $220, $280 and then $415 and even higher as soon as the Short Squeeze begins. To every analysis, we have to be prepaired for the alternative scenario, which would be to break bellow the triangle, however, I truly think that this is highly unlikely. We have 3 support LVL's at $117, $84 and $43. I don't think that this would happen, however, we would most-likely stop at $84 if this were to execute. Controlling your emotions is one of the key elements in being profitable in trading and now is the time for the market to test your control. Do not panic sell as there has been massive sell-off in most of the volatile stocks as the investment funds of the stock market are currently in Crypto, so that is why we have fallen so much. As soon as the Crypto run fades away, the Short Squeeze would begin and we are going to get that Banana! Thank you for the attention, I wish you an amazing Friday!

GBPCHF break a wedge The pair has broken a rising wedge recently and is now trading below the 50 sma in h4 chart and is in the bearish mood, we can clearly see the important divergence from the rsi to the price action; price will be pushed down towards the red line which highlights the first important support, if you decide to open a sell trade pay attention to the moving average and place a stop loss above it. Keep in mind that the pound is fundamentally not weak yet because due to its good GDP DATA and INFLATION is stillstrong in the long term but now we can try to cath a short term move. Francesco

WARNING! The biggest short seller of is “Goldman Sachs Hedge Industry VIP ETF” and I don’t know the other ones. But this one for example holds a lot of healthcare stocks (for example Change Healthcare Inc CHNG). So by buying GME some healthcare stocks, paypal, apple... etc. get at least under pressure. And a lot of stuff is invested in this etf. I couldn’t do the full research but higher prices in GME could destroy your saving on the bank or life insurances or… so nobody knows who really wins with higher prices. Maybe somebody can research that who really is losing here Please, before everything is to late. Maybe this was even on purpose to get rid of unpaid bill to the “regular” people. This ETF goes bankrupt and all the invested Money in this etf is gone! Can someone please make a full research! I wasn’t able to find it!

ATR Indicator - How to Avoid Getting Stopped out of TradesIn this post we can see how the stops were taken out beyond. the 26600 price level. For any setup that a noobie trader may place, the SL would be taken out at this level; However using the ATR indicator we can avoid getting stopped out and keep our trade. I recommend you watch some videos on this indicator to get a better understanding but the main jist of it is -> Take a sweep low/high of a range and add/minus the ATR value (on the sweep candle) to get more legroom for price to move (but it will miss your stop) I hope you find this useful.

GBPUSD - Liquidity TrapStill looking at a trap for Liquidity on Cable going into this week. There are some nice lows that I'm looking for failure around providing a high probability move to the upside (targeting the FTA - First Trouble Area). Why do I trade these liquidity traps? Reason 1 - Because when price breaks structure, the breakout traders have their pending orders (Sell/Buy Stops) activated to which the institutional players will trap by failing the break and pulling price back slightly to close above/below previous structure, invalidating the breakout traders ideas so they will either hit stop or pull out of their order due to fear or rules. Reason 2 - Because any retail traders who are currently still holding positions usually have their stops placed beyond structure/swing points creating a mass of orders. If you're not aware if you're short the market you have to buy back your position and if you're long the market you have to sell back your position. For both of these reasons this creates a high volume area of transactions in the market creating high liquidity. If you study what the big players do at these areas, watch your strike rate grow!

The Early Stop-Hunter catches the WormThis is a textbook pre-London setup. During the Asian session we often see (especially in Yen pairs) moves that set up for the London session. What this does is provides us with liquidity of retail trader stops that we can take advantage of. This was a simple 0.7 R trade that I was in and out of within 45 minutes. It amazes me that traders still put their stops above/below swing points and prior structure, you're basically asking me to come and hunt you down! Also, side note the reason the R is 0.7 is because my strike rate on this strategy is s high, so I don't need to use the absolute poor excuse of *I use a minumum 1:3 Risk to Reward because I can lose 40% of my trades and still be profitable* - IF your strategy gives you a 40% strike rate, it clearly doesn't work! Rant over! Good morning anyway guys, go smash the day!

watch me trade ESso first trade I was stopped out after a run up of about 100 pts. Ended break even, so lost out on potential profits, but that's how it goes if you want to catch as big of runs as you can. 100 pts is nothing compared to catching a trend of 200, 300 or even more points. A revision of my previous indicators: I stated them wrong before. Red dots = 1.5 ATR white dots= 2 ATR blue dots = 2.5 ATR top black line 1.75 ATR bottom black line =2.25 ATR I use the red dots for a long entry if 4 hour candle closes above it and blue dots for a short entry if 4h candle closes below it. the black lines I use as my stops and the white dots I use to add to a position if I think it is worth of doing so. so this trade is long and I follow my rule not my heart and brain. My heart and brain say go short but my rule says long because 4h candle closed above or at red dots. (see black arrow on chart). I have another method where I use my heart and brain that I may show at some time, but it doesn't make money like this although it does okay. Current trade Entry close of 4h candle above red dots = 3411 stop loss below black dots just below it. I know it's not the black lines, but I wanted to give a little more room being that candle closed right on the red dots. It's up to you how tight you want you stop. let's watch how this plays out. I move my stop loss up with each move up of the ATR's. In this case, for now I will move my SL up as the black dots move up. this is open to change. I can always tighten my stop. but never increase my stop.
