CHZUSDT "Power of 3" Quick analysis on a textbook bullish "Power of 3" setup on CHZUSDT
What is "Power of 3"
- Power of 3 setups occur when "smart/big" money is building a position and creating liquidity. Setups can be seen with bullish/bearish scenarios, today we will be digging into a bullish setup.
- While retail can enter positions as orderbook allows, smart money must use more complex methods to build a position. In a bullish scenario we can observe an accumulation zone, price will typically chop in a short range causing traders' bias/positions to flip flop, this is where smart money is building the bulk of their position. In the manipulation zone, price consolidates below a key broken point which will provoke seller/short interest, the added pressure allows smart money to further build the rest of their long position. Once smart money is positioned they want to provoke buyer/long interest (a reclaim of the broken S/R), this is where the expansion phase can begin. There is little to no resistance during the expansion phase because the bulk of short/sell pressure has already absorbed, because of this, expansion can be quick and harsh.
This is just a very quick summary, I urge you to DYOR on "Power of 3" setups and come to your own conclusions/plan
My Plan for this scenario
- I entered long at 0.1485 at the equal swing low of the consolidation area. Future entries could be a sweep of the same area 0.1475-0.1485 (which happened as this idea was being published), or a reclaim of the broken S/R
- T/P is initially in the 0.1740/0.1780 area, although I will be monitoring for a reclaim of the monthly open for confirmation of a continuation. If 0.1780 area is flipped and reclaimed, I will look to 0.22 and eventually 0.265 as HTF targets.
- Invalidation would be a break/close below 0.1450 or a breakdown on BTC
