BTC at some support levelsLets look at BTC. Some people have been saying that its getting ready to take off again, so I wanted to do my own analysis.
I've got three indicators I'm using here.
- Wedges/channels (the thin green lines)
- Fibs - the gold colored fib levels
- Wick Strength - the oscilalator at the bottom
First, Wedges.
We can see that price is at the bottom of a wedge/channel. Its been pretty consistent on the plotted wedges that breakouts have been significant. However with the support of the Wick Strength as well as support of the 0.382 fib level, it looks like we might return to the top of the channel rather than crashing through the bottom.
Next, Fibs.
Fibonacci are one of my favorite technicals and popular for a reason. Look at all the times price has bounced right off a near-exact fib level! Recently BTC hit the 0.5 with a STRONG support. And here we are again at the 0.382. Looking left on this line we can see multiple wax and wick bottoms rejecting at this price point in recent months.
Lastly, Wick Strength.
I'm still learning this one as its new, but here's what I've seen. In up markets, Wick Strength is low, because there is constant downward pressure from all the bears. So the top wicks are long, and the bottom wick are short. (Indicating that bulls are stronger since wax is bullish, but bears still have a voice and top wicks are longer than bottom). In down markets, its the opposite, and the Wick Score goes up due to longer bottom wicks by the bulls. Here, Wick Strength is relatively high actually, and we're in a flag price action pattern. Looking like Wick Strength will come down as the market takes off bullish again.
Just at thought! We'll see what happens.

AU looking good to hit the TARGET!Today was one of these days where I woke up late. However, didn't beat myself up for missing a few setups and waited patiently. After scanning through some USD pairs and fundamental information, I could see that at the moment I was looking at AU for a potential entry, USD was weak AF.
Then looking at the 4H structure I could see that the bias was definitely bullish.
1H: saw a perfect brake and retest, after seeing that 1H candle closing on the B/R area, I went down to the 5min to see how price is reacting to some levels and wicks (RED LINES REPRESENT 5 min levels - I can't really show 5min tf through the analysis feature). Saw that price was holding a level that was formed by a 1H candle wick, set my buy stop confidently and went for it ... whatever happens, it is what it is!
Will keep you guys updated.
USDCAD - Wick Entry SellsWe may have missed the ideal entry point on this one so we shouldn't really go around chasing tails. If the price comes up slightly I will consider placing a sell limit in attempts of getting a wick entry from the lower time frame order block. We will have to see how the price develops on Monday, wishing you all a great trading week!
COT Data - 70% Long
GBPJPY - Get that Wick EntryWe managed to pull off an amazing stunt last week with that lovely wick entry on GJ, we are now looking for more potential buying opportunities. I have marked out a zone in which I think price will tap into before continuing to the upside, you may want to consider setting some orders at that region if it fits your analysis.
GBP is proving to be very tough to trade recently giving us a yo-yo of price action movement so make sure you tread carefully when trading it.

GOLD ConfusedGold looks pretty undecited at the moment and each direction can be expected.Price has been forming HIGHER LOWS and LOWER HIGHS. Personally I am expecting a huge move on gold on the next couple weeks in the direction which market will take out either previous HL or LH. Trendline will come a handy tool to see price direction clearly. My personall bias on this pair are long, I highly see $2100 region to be tapped before deciding for the next wave. #tradesafe #gold #analysis #forex
GOLD Clean ViewGold looks still very weak to break 1912 key level, it has to find the right liquidity needed to break thru that level. Mulitiple wicks on 1912. Trendline has been touched one more time and probablly will hold. On daily TF, not a single body candle has engulfed previous wicks. Personally expecting gold to push up through at least two previous Lower Highs and prolly form a double top before finding the right momentum to break 1912 key level and the significant trendline to look for Higher Lows to be formed on larger Time Frames.
GBP/JPY Potential Buy OpportunityAttention Traders!
Allow me to share my thoughts on GBP/JPY.
Price is now at a strong level of support (on the 4hr timeframe). If price doesnt break this level immediantly and find a new low , i expect the markets to start pushing up again. Its been a slow week so far , but grateful for the lessons.
