AVAX → Avalanche Reached Resistance! Reverse to $25? or $75?AVAX has met a major 2021 lifetime resistance area and rendered a strong sell signal in response. Is this the time to short?
How do we trade this? 🤔
We have three pushes up in a bull trend; the third push has made contact with a major 2021 resistance area, followed by two strong bear candles closing on their lows below the Daily 30EMA. What we need now is a test of the 30EMA as resistance followed by a strong bear bar closing on or near its low. This will be our confirmation bar and our queue to enter a short. Take half profits at 1:1 Risk/Reward then move the stop loss up to the entry price to secure profits. Swing the latter half of the position to 1:3 Risk/Reward just above the previous major support, or until a reversal pattern appears.

💰 Trading Tip 💰
It's reasonable to take half profits at the first resistance target in a long trade, or the first support target in a short trade. Using a 1:1 Risk/Reward Ratio for your first target, you can move your stop loss up to your entry price, locking in profits. This allows you to watch the rest of the trade execute without worry of losing money. This helps improve trading psychology and the equity in your account.
