Trading Timeframes: Measured Moves and ContextIn the previous post, we introduced the concept of measured moves, a structured framework for estimating future price behavior. This method is based on the observation that each swing move tends to be similar in size to the previous one, assuming average price volatility remains consistent. While not exact, this approach offers a practical way to approximate the potential extension of a swing move. A common question that arises is: which timeframe should you use for measured moves, and how do you choose the correct swing move? These questions open up a completely different and important topic. Imagine analyzing a chart across three timeframes: daily, weekly, and monthly. You’ve projected a viable measured move on each chart. Now, ask yourself: which projection is the correct one? Where is the move most likely to play out? Daily Weekly Monthly The reality is that there is no singular “correct” answer. The appropriate measurement depends entirely on your purpose as a trader, the timeframe you operate in, and trading style. The Fractal Nature of Price Action Price action is fractal by nature. Regardless of whether you’re observing a 30-minute chart, a daily chart, or a weekly chart, the price displayed is the same in real time. However, the purpose of charts is to provide context. Each timeframe offers a unique perspective on how price has developed. For example, a 5-minute chart may reveal details about intraday movements while a daily chart condenses those details into broader a broader structure and context. These perspectives may align or contradict one another, they can confirm or challenge your biases. The key takeaway is that charts and timeframes are tools to contextualize price, not definitive answers. Defining Your Trading Timeframe To navigate the apparent contradictions between timeframes, start by defining your trading timeframe. This is where you analyze price structure, execute trades and define holding periods. This will answer the opening question: measured moves and other tools should in preference align with your trading timeframe. In case one wants to consider context, for various reasons, then multiple timeframes can be utilized. These act as a complement, not replacement. Here’s how different timeframes can be used for context. Higher timeframe: Moving one timeframe up will compress the price data, providing a broader context, but at the expense of detail. Lower Timeframe: Moving one timeframe down will reveal intricate details, but can introduce excessive noise. The balance between these components should match your trading style. Without a clear and defined approach, there is a risk of confusion and contradictory biases. The Concept of "Moving in Twos" Another, more anecdotal observation in price movement is the idea of “moving in twos.” This concept suggests that price often moves in sequences of two swings: an impulse move, followed with a pullback, which then repeats. There tends to be some price disruption after this has played out, but does not always imply that trend movement must stop after two moves. However, measured moves tend to align more reliably with these sequences. While not a scientifically validated principle, this concept has been discussed by traders such as Al Brooks, Mack and more. It provides a practical heuristic for applying measured moves more consistently. Practical Application To apply these ideas, consider the following: Define your trading timeframe. Use it as the primary basis for your measured move projections. If needed, incorporate one higher or lower timeframe to balance context and detail. However, these additional perspectives should not overrule your primary focus. Think in terms of “moving in twos.” Use this concept to locate sequences. This post was about the relationship between timeframes and the fractal nature of price action. The focus is on our role as traders and how we decide to operate, rather than absolute answers. This might be clear to most, but if not, take some time to think about and define your trading style. Educationby StockLeave3

QqqSo there is 4 major sectors that Drive the QQQ and tech overall.. I like to know what the sectors are doing/showing to get an edge on where QQQ is headed. Imagine QQQ being a car, and each sector is important part to that car (Transmission, Engine) Here are the 4 sectors and 2 of the biggest names in each sector XLK -Msft , Aapl XLC - Meta, Googl, Nflx SMH - NVDA , TSM XLY - AMZN, TSLA Qqq weekly chart (Log scale) Price is at the top of a 16yr channel. We tagged the top back in July high and most recently right after trump election rally; both time price got smacked down. The only time price has broke. Out of this channel was with the stimulus liquidity back in 2021. Daily chart shows a rising wedge at the top of the weekly channel If we were to trade inside this wedge then then the top is a around 512. Lets say we we broke out of the rising wedge and pushed back up to the weekly channel, that move would take us to a new high of 520 where we would then sell again. Now let's say we break to the downside of this wedge , that correction would be 10% and would pullback to 460 price action minimum. Maximum we target weekly channel bottom around 390- 400. Lets start with XLK, this chart mirrors QQQ the most Daily chart similar rising wedge pattern here Bearish below 228. Below 228 and the corr3ction has started. NASDAQ:AAPL has been keeping this propped up nicely but now aapl is at a brick wall IMO Here's aapl chart weekly Top of trendline and resistance at 237. More importantly is aapl 4 hour money flow just went off.. The thing about indicators is you have to know which ones work well with which stocks and time frame and aapl 4hour Mfi is about 80% reliable and this one is telling me SELL. So back to XLK 2hour chart and you can see that this week we will either have a double top below 228 or a pennant.. I'm thinking sell early since aapl is at resistance then let job's decide later .. if they do prop it will be more from msft than aapl. XLC Daily chart that shows rally from 2022 lows. Price has stayed contained inside channel up until Nflx rally + Trump election.. Now we are outside channel but trading inside a baby wedge. I think for the month of December this sector will double to 88-91 price action.. Daily MFI just lit up and weekly candle outside Bband XLY Weekly chart (Log scale) Riding the top of its Bbands near channel but price has room for 230 if it wants. Weekly candle is now 14% extended from its 20sma; when this happens usually within the course of the next 4-6weeks price pulls back to test the weekly 20sma. Daily chart If price breaks back below 220 then we began a pullback to 212 or previous ATH from 2021. Below 212 and it's a double to back to 205 Lastly is Chip sector NASDAQ:SMH Weekly chart (Log scale) Price went parabolic back in 2020 from the supply chain issues and broke above 10yr resistance before correcting back inside. Fast forward and it looks like deja vu all over again. Price is hovering right at trendline and if we fall back inside that would mean a nasty year/years ahead for chips Close up of the weekly, more immediately looks like price is headed back to its 2 year trendline support around 220 Daily chart.. pretty simple here. Descending triangle that will flush below 237 but could turn into a double bottom over 248 Over 248 (50sma) and we close gap at 260 and retest rising wedge The crash scenario for chips is if SMH loses 200.00 price. But I think It's a when not if. In the mean time look for the pullback to 215-220 even if we bounce to 260 . So to sum it up For tech we are either Extended at a brick wall or outright bearish.. Nothing looks like a buy and swing to me.. you may see fawkery until they decide to break the wedge on Qqq.. what do I mean by Fawkery? Well since aapl is at resistance and let's say they don't want a full sell on XLK yet, they may prop up Msft with some fake news/Upgrade and this keeps XLK above its 20sma. I'm looking for a sell on Qqq this week and for the wedge to be broken to the down side. My immediate target first 2 weeks of Dec is 484 Shortby ContraryTraderUpdated 171737

QQQ: TA with Gamma Exposure (GEX) Levels and Price Action1. Key Levels Identified: * Highest Positive NETGEX (Call Resistance): $530 * This level indicates significant call interest. If the price approaches this level, it could act as resistance due to hedging-related activity by options market makers. * HVL (Hedging Volatility Level): $521 * A key pivot area where hedging activity is concentrated. The price often consolidates or reacts near this level. * Put Walls: * 3rd PUT Wall: $515 (-32.07% Gamma Exposure) * A moderate support zone where put interest intensifies. Market makers may hedge around this level, reducing downside momentum. * 2nd PUT Wall: $505 (-47.53% Gamma Exposure) * A stronger support area. If breached, it may lead to higher volatility and stronger downward momentum. * 1st PUT Wall: $500 (-43.07% Gamma Exposure) * Acts as a critical support zone. Breaching this level could signal a bearish breakout. 1. Price Action: * The price is currently around $520, sitting near the HVL. This indicates a balancing point between bullish and bearish hedging flows. * The downward sloping trendline suggests a short-term bearish bias, with potential for further downside if the price breaks below $515. Technical Indicators Analysis: 1. MACD: * The MACD histogram is showing bearish momentum, with the signal line crossing below the MACD line. This supports a continuation of the bearish trend. 2. Stochastic RSI: * Oversold conditions suggest the possibility of a short-term bounce. Watch for crossovers to confirm any bullish reversal. 3. Trendlines: * The chart displays a descending trendline intersecting around $525. A break above this trendline could signal a bullish reversal. * Support trendline converges near $505, aligning with the 2nd PUT Wall. Options Strategy Plan: 1. Bullish Scenario: * If QQQ breaks above $525: * Call Option Entry: Strike price at $530, expiration within 1-2 weeks. * Target: $530 (resistance level). * Stop-Loss: $520. 2.

Recommendation for Expiration Date: * Short-Term Expiry: Use 1-2 weeks for momentum-based trades, especially when targeting sharp moves near support or resistance levels. * Longer Expiry (2+ weeks): Ideal for breakout plays to allow time for the move to materialize. Summary: * QQQ is at a pivotal point near $520. Watch for a breakout above $525 for a bullish setup or a breakdown below $515 for bearish momentum. * Gamma levels provide clear support/resistance zones, enhancing precision in trade planning. * Use MACD and Stochastic RSI for confirmation of directional bias.

Macroeconomic History Tells Us Rough Times Are AheadIn 2023, I did a write up on TradingView about how there is a positive correlation between interest rates and equities, meaning that equites tend to decrease when interest rates decrease. However, correlation does not equal causation. The real correlation is between poor economic data and the stock market, where the poor economic data spurs interest rate cuts and causes a fall in equities. The recent surprisingly bad July jobs report jolted the markets, and reasonably so. The Fed decided to hold interest rates steady in July, causing some to think that they may be behind the curve. Not to mention the Sahm Rule flashed positive; an economic observation that has never been wrong in being a precursor to a recession. fred.stlouisfed.org I am of the party that the Fed is behind the curve In the past, Jerome Powell has stated that he doesn't expect a "severe" recession, and that there could be a "softish" landing, hinting at the difficulties that the Fed faced in preventing a recession altogether. I believe that the stock market will continue to fall, mixed with large rallies (which will make buying the bottom difficult), and I think this will play out for many months. So what's my plan? I sold my LEAPS before the poor jobs market data was released, saving my bacon to be honest. I sold my HOOD profits as well, as I had made a 100% return. I then took both and dumped the funds into QQQ. I do not hold cash in case I am wrong. I would rather be wrong and invested than wrong and sitting on cash. I plan on waiting until the Q's drop another 20% or so before buying LEAPS. Typically, I advise only to put 10% into LEAPS, but this could be a rare opportunity where risk on could pay of in a big way. When I do decide to jump in, I will buy LEAPS with expirations two years out. I want to give them the longest time frame possible because I know I won't be able to time the bottom perfectly. The real risk is waiting too long Wait too long, and I miss a big opportunity. However, being exposed to equities, I'll still ride the wave up. If I'm wrong altogether, I'm still invested in equities and will ride the wave up. I will still be somewhat hesitant to invest into LEAPS through this rate cutting cycle considering history warns against leveraging into QE. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Calling the Macro Blow-off Top: 2.5x returns in only 4 years?Today I see the QQQ struggling to break another ATh on it's winning streak. Like many investors, I have no reason industrially to believe that the entire information technology sector is worth 2.5x what it was worth in 2020 spring. It was overvalued then, and now, well, goldilocks is about to meet the bears and say - well, I want it that way (pointing to the cold bowl of oatmeal). Listen. When a blow-off-top manifests, it's easy to buy in. Just like the head and shoulders doesn't seem like a head when you are standing on the head. But srsly - we are standing on the head, and boyo jack is going to cut htis beanstock now, and either the giant falling down is going to crush us, or we'll make off with the golden goos. My current allocations: 58% Treasuries earning north of 5% in the "BIL" etf (a much better hedge than bonds, now that correlation has resumed between bonds and stocks), and 42% Value Equities, with no holding having a P/E above 30, and with all holdings having positive Earnings, Positive Growth, and ROE above 20%. That is what fundamental investing is, folks. I own companies that earn money and project to earn money. I don't own hope. Anyone owning hope is in delusion. Own fundamentals. And join me on the side with all your potfolio in AMEX:BIL , and laugh at the next 10 years of consolidation. I estimate nearly 0% overall growth in the tech sector over the next 5 years, and AI will create as many problems as it solves - a net loss, in my opinion. Shortby MikaelZg114

This was a tricky one as we broke out and over shot the rest area but we are now back above the breakout area and set for ATH push this upcoming thanksgiving week IMO. - Dropped down to our support zone and caught a bid as we anticipated due to AVP shelf and the 9ema. - Williams R% needed that pullback last week, and now we have a retest of support and a bounce higher in our consolidation box. Giving us a strong signal we will build on the week we just had and head towards ATH's once more.
