Good Friday morning, traders. We saw another attempt by the market to push price up and through the $6450-$6650 resistance but the sell walls were dropped in when it did. Ultimately, we saw a high of $6562 this morning with a sharp sell off immediately afterward that led to a low of $6405. The high was at the dashed horizontal resistance line that we've had in...
Good morning, traders. It was a rough Monday for some of you, I'm sure. Those who have been following my live streams knew yesterday was a distinct possibility and, hopefully, were prepared for it. I continue to preach the importance of risk management so that traders don't get caught when price swings opposite their anticipated direction. The question now is has...
Good morning, traders. It's Monday and time to get the trading week underway. As pointed out during Friday's daily live stream (where we always go into greater depth concerning price action), Bitcoin appears to be following April's pattern. The same can be said with the shorts/longs ratio. While there are no guarantees, it does give traders something to watch as...
Good Friday morning, traders. The end of the week is here and Bitcoin appears to be setting up for a large move. Many traders were shaken out overnight by the drop in price and remain even more skittish now. As I mentioned during last night's live stream, yesterday's daily candle printed an inside bar which most often precedes a strong movement. While that...
Good Thursday morning, traders. Things start becoming interesting now with the weekend just a day away and daily RSI sitting on oversold. If you have been tuning into our daily live streams, then you know I have discussed the various possibilities presenting themselves at this time. Daily oversold often provides a bit of a decent bounce for price, at least, though...
Good Thursday morning, traders. I'm sure many of you have thrown in the towel and believe price MUST absolutely make new lows. Remember, price does not HAVE to do anything, especially not what retail traders believe it needs to do and that is why retail traders often end up buying the top and selling the bottom. While I am not convinced in which direction price is...
Remember, all corrections take the same general path as they are all the result of human beings and their unconscious reaction to fear and greed. They just take longer or shorter depending on the movement prior, and the movements may be more or less exaggerated. This comparison in no way suggests that price will definitively do one thing or the other. It is...
Good morning, traders. Price action this morning exemplifies the importance of short term traders not getting into a position when the market is moving sideways like it has been. This is what I'm constantly warning new traders about. There is no definitiveness of movement until price exits that sideways chop. Unfortunately that is also one of the most difficult...
Cause and effect the cornerstone of Wyckoff methodology. Time to get physical, Isaac Newton famously once said ‘For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction’. With that in mind, let's use it analyse the previous cycles on BTC… Aprils accumulation (cause) and markup phase (effect). Accumulation lasted 13days and markup lasted an equal amount of time....
When it comes to cryptocurrency trading, almost everyone is looking for quick wins... Buy and sell after 5%, repeat this several times in a week and boom... But what about playing the game in a different way... Here's a great strategy to make 500% on almost every trade you will make... Just watch out for new cryptocurrencies getting into the game in Bittrex. For...
Central banks are (again) helping bulls by keeping the stimulus active until they see higher inflation - according to rumors and speculation of the last three days, ahead of the next ECB meeting this Thursday, October 20, 2016, where Mario Draghi might surprise the market to the upside again, after the reaction to the last meeting was a falling stock market. This...
twitter.com If you are familiar with this image, you'll understand very well that market crash cycles can be found in every corner of the market. With the only similarity between all markets being the human beings behind the money (price), it would be sensible to think that the psychology & emotions behind these humans play a pivotal role in understanding...

USDJPY is up to its same old tricks. The USDJPY like to consolidate tightly for periods of time then explode out of the range. This Breakout/Breakdown opportunity is setting up on the 240min chart. It's just a simple Balance Area. These Balance Area's are where "smart money" is either Accumulating or Distributing positions, we never really know what they are doing...
