AAPL CHART - SIMPLISTIC TA (LINE) It helps to know when to buy and when to sell. I've taken the candle chart out and changed it to a line graph. I've followed the bottoms of the moves since March. As you can see it goes above the line frequently, but it always comes back. I'm not an expert but a move back to the low $380's seems likely. At that point I'd have faith in the chart and run with the next few positive deviations from the pretty well defined angle of assent. NASDAQ:AAPL

Q2 +198% gain, despite a losing month in June on H1 timeframeJune was a challenging month indeed - lots of ranging markets, but a great 198% still for Q2 - including June! It's important to understand this can happen and no equity curve in trading is a perfect diagonal one! Losing days/weeks or even months can be part of a profitable strategy over a long period of time. Understanding this is vital to overall success and profitability. Lots of traders flick between strategies from week to week or month to month, not sticking with one plan thus then not having consistency. Treat your trading like a business and accept a losing month should not define your year or your quarter! Q2 stats below, also we touch on V4 stats below too - to show how we have now factored in a function to help remove a lot of trades from a ranging market - the difference is quite staggering in both the reduced amount of trades, solid gains for Q2 and that June in isolation remained profitable on V4. All based on £500 account on 1% risk as a baseline for all stats; Current settings; Q2 / £991 profit / 817 trades June / £-129 / 263 trades V4 settings with trend filter and specific parameters for each pair on H1 timeframe; Q2 / £852 profit / 332 trades (less than half the current trade volume!) June / £48 profit / 95 trades - almost a third of the trade volume, thus demonstrating the trend filter working well. Due to the lower volume of trades, 1% risk is doable, on V3 it was high if taking all trades - thus V4 can provide even stronger % returns on a LFL basis because of this. Watch out for our V4 video ..... Regards Darren

NZDCAD in a critical zoneNZDCAD is now testing a resistance zone at 0.87800 which it has failed to break multiple times. Bears can look to short the pair now, with a stop loss a few pips above the resistance zone, targeting the local demand zone at 0.87100. Beyond that, targets may be placed further down if the local demand zone and supportive trendline fails to hold. There has been a lot of bullish pressure today, which may be what is needed to finally break the resistance zone. Entering a long position on a break and retest would be a safer alternative for the bulls. Please share your thoughts in the comments below and leave a like.

Bullish P-Wave forming on BTCUSD Daily TF?If I discount the tops at 10k+ as false hopes driven rallies not supported by much (see volume signatures on those days) ... this looks like a classic P-Wave forming to me, with a statistical probability of breaking to the upside. What do you think? Please lmk in the comments below! :) If it drops below 9.150 .. seems like a good place to ladder in shorts on low lev. with tight stops to the upside. if it drops below 8.8 ... ladder in more. if it snaps down and up ... that seems bullish enough to me if it is quick enough and bounces above 9.5k, at which point 9.8 - 10k seems (once again) like the next logical test to the upside. And if it breaks that ... 10.5k seems like the next resistance level on the horizontals. either way, i expect some fireworks this week, even in the next few days or less. happy trading! ps: Thoughts? Please lmk in the comments below! :)
