Unveiling the Battle Between Buyers and Sellers🕯📈🤝 Introduction Candlestick charts are a cornerstone of forex trading, offering valuable insights into market dynamics. One key element of a candlestick is the size of its body, which provides crucial information about the strength of buyers and sellers. In this comprehensive article, we'll explore how the size of a candle's body reflects market sentiment, provide real-world examples, and equip you with the knowledge to make informed trading decisions. Understanding Candlestick Bodies The body of a candlestick represents the difference between the opening and closing prices within a specific time frame. Its size and color convey essential information about the battle between buyers (bulls) and sellers (bears). Interpreting Candlestick Body Size 1. Large Bullish Candle Body: A candle with a large bullish body indicates strong buying pressure. In such cases, the closing price is significantly higher than the opening price, suggesting that buyers have dominated the market during the given time frame. 2. Large Bearish Candle Body: Conversely, a candle with a substantial bearish body signifies strong selling pressure. The closing price is well below the opening price, indicating that sellers have dominated. 3. Small or Doji Candle Body: A small or doji candle body suggests indecision or a balance between buyers and sellers. The opening and closing prices are close, and the body may appear as a thin line or a small box. Relevance and Trading Strategies 1. Trend Confirmation: Large bullish or bearish candle bodies can confirm the strength of an existing trend. Traders may use such candles to enter or add to positions in the direction of the trend. 2. Reversal Signals : Small or doji candle bodies near support or resistance levels can signal potential trend reversals. Traders watch for follow-up candles to confirm reversal patterns. 3. Volatility Assessment: Candle body size can also provide insights into market volatility. Larger bodies often accompany higher volatility, while smaller bodies indicate calmer market conditions. Conclusion Mastering the interpretation of candlestick bodies is a valuable skill in forex trading. It enables traders to gauge the strength of buyers and sellers, confirm trends, identify potential reversals, and assess market volatility. By incorporating this knowledge into your trading strategy, you can make more informed decisions and enhance your ability to navigate the ever-changing forex market. 📊🕯📈 Please, support my work with like and comment!

Solana still onto the bullsListen very carefully there are big 3 obstacles of resistance that solana needs to break. 40$ zone 80$ zone and lastly 100$ area. I. Order to get that high then bulls should need to go sideways upwards and short dip retrace. It won’t be easy because of the Feds still increasing rates and inflation still high. It’s pretty spikey so I highly suggest buy it now before goes over 26$ the early you buy at 25 zone the better. Watch any reversals; it will be very unexpectedly no matter buy or sell. Overall in order bulls to take control and take over 150$ zone is the target to breakout even further to avoid sell pressure and sell off.. once you buy .. don’t take profit to early; always take profit at the new high. Watch any bearish reversal y’all

If solana had already bottomed…13-11$ bottom support had been holding really strong and well. If this stays holds well strong then we are going up to the moon.. and stays intact, first target will be 80$ then bullish fully breakout over 100$ then the huge bull market rally will begin. 2023-2024 bullish ATH rally target will be 500$ and beyond.. beyond as in 1000$ if it’s before 2025 or mid 2025 then I’ll be surprised If the bottom is in.. highly advance go all in. If this turns around then more collapse will come if this doesn’t hold it will accelerate very quickly of the drop. Trade safe and good luck.

Bulls VS BearsI make most of mistakes when my bias is too bullish or bearish and I miss opportunities on the other side of the trade. I find it useful to take a step back, clear off my indicators, channels and patterns and look at where we are in the markets with a fresh unbiased opinion. You'll often find me posting about being bearish while charting bullish patterns and vice versa. I was convinced spx would hit 5000 before a decline. But I was charting bearish H&S at the same time. You know the saying, “Markets can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent." To that I say "Hold my Beer" ........................................... Bull Case Bull sees a seasonality weak September and equities overbought at the top of potentially a new bull channel. The Bull is looking for strong Christmas and Employment numbers along with lowering CPI and acceptance of 900B/M of Treasuries. Smart Bulls realize there is over 2 Trillion in overnight repo and expects it will cover much of the first few months of QT. Bull wants Fed to slow rate hikes of 50bp or lower and maintain neutral status. Bull is concerned about event vol on the next upcoming election as tensions rise after the recent political FBI raid. The bull is hopeful there is not a repeat of the last election. Bull sees a time of consolidation and hedges for short to medium term growth of 3.5-5.5% using a put spread collar around their assets. The Bull must defend the Tenkan-Sen (Conversion Line) after successfully defending it on Fridays sell. Failing Tenkan-Sen will quickly see a retest of the 200D EMA. If Tenkan-Sen and 200D EMA fail, a retest of Ichimoku Cloud would quickly follow by the middle of September indicating a return to bear market. ........................................... Bear Case The bear is weak from the past 4 weeks of short squeezes in technology, speculation and meme stocks. A smart bear realized the significance of the bottom being the same price difference of March 2022 decline and likely joined Bulls in the recent short squeeze rallies. A bear realizes markets are very leptokurtic and follows volatility, volume and liquidity very closely waiting for signs of a weakening economy to appear. The bear wants a hawkish Fed hike of 75bp or higher and plans for higher CPI numbers in Sept. Bear is likely to place heavy bets around upcoming CPI, Fed Meeting and Quad witching. Finally, the Bear is expecting 900B per month in Treasuries to weaken an already struggling Bond market and deep inversion on yield curves. In either case... Bulls don’t buy the top and Bears be patient.

bittyinteresting point here--- the cap or volume is at 25 billion does that mean a bullish movement is about to take place has the market found a cushion or pillow to rest on---and were going towards an upward trend----because you know we had a downturn the last 9 months can bulls and bears manage to work together to a new high--- or will bulls fail. is the bear season over----- I believe so. hoping for 23 months and 1 week of bullish charts at bare minimum---there will be 2-3 weeks at a time that will or could be bearish. but for the majority its bullish for 23 months and 1 week at minimum.

WILL BTCUSDT BOUNCE ??Hello !! Welcome to the quick update of BTCUSDT. It is moving in a downtrend since 28th March. As of now, it is oscillating in the range of 39k to 43k. In a shorter timeframe, it is making a W pattern where we may soon see a bounce to 41k. As of now, the price is 39300, and we expect it to take a bounce from here and reach 41000 then 43000 which is the major resistance. If BTCUSDT goes further down i.e. breaks the support of 39200, we may soon see 38000 which will bring a blood bath in all the altcoins. As of now, it's a no-trade zone for me, lets's see how this pans out. Please save your capital and wait for the confirmation to take new trades. This is not financial advice, please do your own research before investing and we are not responsible for any of your losses or profits.

BTCUSDT : SHOULD YOU BE WORRIED ??Hello !! Welcome to the quick update of BTCUSDT. As posted in my last chart, BTC was taking major support from 39200 again and again and was making a move until 40000. But, the move didn't sustain and there were very less buyers at the 39300 level. After taking multiple support from 39300, it eventually broke it and went all the way until 38620. As of now, the 39300 level has turned into the new resistance and needs to break in order to make a move further. We saw some buyers at the 38620 level which pushed the price to 39200, as of now we can see that BTC is retesting the support turned resistance and there can be more downside momentum. The important levels are marked in the chart. I expect BTC to retest 39300 and again dump until 37600 before making a move upside. Please stay vigilant of your trades and wait for confirmation and the right moment to enter any trade. This is not financial advice, please do your own research before investing and we are not responsible for any of your losses or profits.

Bitcoin Analysis : The Next MoveHello all, After calling the Top in Bitcoin & the most recent fall at 47K we introduce you to our next trade setup. We will update as the price action continues. -------------------------------------- Long-Play: A candle break and close above the falling wedge resistance we will then place a long position targeting the 52K region and beyond. Be cautious of a fakeout at the ~46.5K resistance. Short Play: A candle break and close below the 40K key support we will look to place a short position to retest the 30K support. Be cautious of a violent drop followed by heavy buying pressure resulting in a long wick.

January Bull vs BearThis chart is a general overview of the SPX for the past year, broken into quarters with a few croissant crumbs in it. Either bull or bear should respect the 20d MA and 2 standard deviation channel above and below. It is to help me measure risk and how well my trades will perform. If I’m buying short-term calls outside the blue line after DEC 28th, it's probably not going to pay well because the indexes were already at the top of the 2stdev over the 20d. There are cases in the past that the index does break above this trend and stayed near the top/bottom of this resistance level, but not for very long. This means bears will be looking to push lower on the indexes the first half of this month. Bulls however have proved formidable through the most recent bearish news and hawkish outlook from the Fed. With new flows coming in for the new year and institutions having a war chest available there is still a strong Bull case and we could see more short squeezing into all-time highs (ATH) for the first half of the month. The feds policy plans for 2022 should serve as a warning that the bull run may be over. Elon was mocked for predicting a recession in late 2022/2023. He is in good company though because most of fintwit is predicting steep declines for the year ahead. However, never try to tell a BULL that. When you know it can only down is the most likely time it will continue to grind up on the blood of BEARs. BULL CASE Santa rally traditionally continues into the first 2 days of the new year. New inflows of money and short squeezes may continue to grind the S&P higher along the top of the 2stdev of the 20d followed by some sharp selling off on or just before JAN 19th VIX OPEX. JAN ATH ~4907 END JAN ~4763 BEAR CASE What could be lining up as the year of the Bear I would expect to see more sideways trading and periods of large corrective moves downward. These moves would likely start arriving around windows of weakness in the options market like we saw in the 2020 feb/mar correction. Some speculate this would be a much harder of a drop because the fed can not lower the interest rates any longer. I do however anticipate the pow may already have a plan to facilitate a more transitory approach to tapering. As for my Bear Case, I see an early decline into the 20d followed by lower lows and capitulation ~2std below 20d before a health correction territory in Feb/Mar END JAN ~4534

DJI at a critical level - Bulls pray it doesnt break this 👿☠️👹DJI aka Dow Jones Index has been sliding south for the last 7 days, but considering that it has been going up for last few months it is not surprising to see this kind of pullback. Now the issue becomes, will this index keep having losses till it collapses to the abyss or this magic line is going to save the trend and push the bulls up to the moon as they say? Lets dive into the charts and analyze. This chart is straight forward, the Dow Jones Index has been following this trend line since November 2020 and now it is coming to retest the trend line. As I post this TA, it is kissing that line. To me it is not much of a concern until we close one daily candle below this line, if this happens it will be a warning shot and I may start re-evaluating my long term bullish positions. On other indicators, daily PSAR looks bearish, price below 21EMA which is bearish but on the bullish side price is above both 50MA and 200MA and the blue trend line. At the moment I am neutral and I am holding my positions until something changes. I will keep you updated as things change. If you like these TAs, please smash the like button and share with your friends and other traders. Have a great week ahead. XTF.

XAUUSD Technical Analysis, Scenario 1 and Scenario 2DISCLAIMER : Take at your own risk . Past results does not reflect future results. Please use PROPER MONEY MANAGEMENT. IF IN DOUBT, GET OUT. OANDA:XAUUSD Analysis: Daily TF: Daily Trend is an UPTREND and is above 50 MA. Previous Day Candle is Spinning Top, Market is in tug of war, no clear indication of where it will go. Daily Fib indicates that it hit and area where BULLS would potentially push the market up. Price Action hit "Daily Support 1" which was tested Aug/23/2011 and Sep/06/2011 where in both occasions the BEARS pushed the market down. There was previous consolidation from Jul/08/2020 to Jul/17/2020 in the range of 1787.60 to 1814.80 in which the BULLS pushed the market up after Jul/17/2020. This area is now a Price Reversal Zone which means that if BEARS take the price to this levels, potentially BULLS will resist and push the market up. 4H TF: 4H Trend is starting to look like a DOWNTREND and is below 50 MA. 4H Fib is showing that it hit an area where Bears would potentially push the market down further. However, there is potential Divergence in this 4H TF as the slow line (MACD LINE) is curving and histogram is showing a slowed momentum from BEARS. 1H TF: 1H Trend is a DOWNTREND, is below 50 MA and approaching the 50 MA curve. 1H TF has a Bullish Pennant Flag with a Flat Top. This indicates that BULLS are pushing the market up to a certain extent before the BEARS take over with lower volume. Breakout Strategy: Scenario 1: BULLS push market up, Buy Stop: Entry: 1950.50, SL: 1929.20, TP3: 12035.90, TP2: 1979.90, TP1: 1959.00 Scenario 2: BEARS push market down, Sell Stop: Entry: 1906.00, SL: 1934.50, TP3: 1807.00, TP2: 1845.70, TP1: 1884.00 These values are from my own analysis. You can move SL around to what you are comfortable with. Use proper Money Management. Beginners to note XAUUSD is per tick not per pip, so 1 tick is 0.01 for lot size 0.01. If you don't have proper management, don't take this trade. IF YOU IN DOUBT, GET OUT.

Big Baller Trade Area for the Orange Inverse Head and ShoulderAll have been said in the previous posts. The most crucial area is the Magenta Elipse that I called the Big Baller Trade Area where the Bulls or the Bears will lost their Shit! It's just between the 0.5 and 0.382 Fib Retracement of the last uptrend. From that Big Baller Area, both targets of Macro Higher High or Macro Lower Low can be seen. Are you going to play this Area? I personally got burned over there.... so Good Luck to you! #Good Luck #The ColorChartist

BTC Elliott Wave Variation Targets(x 3.62- 7250-7450 WAVE 3)These are some of the variations that bitcoin may choose to follow. So far it has chosen the most bullish path. There are 2-3 additional targets for wave 3: 1. x3.62 *Wave 1: 7250-7450 2. x4.25 *Wave 1: 8000 (also a psychological resistance) 3. x4.62 *Wave 1: 8350-8450 Since the intermediate wave 5 is maximally extended to 2.62, this means that most likely the target for the large wave III will be option 1, or x3.62 (7250-7450). If this will be the case, there will be a retraction labelled as wave IV, and it's potential targets are: 1. 6350-6500 2. 5750-5850 Otherwise, if the extention is x4.25 or x4.62, there will be different retraction levels for Wave IV, that I will update on if necessary. Wave V targets are labelled, but at this points it is very hard to forecast wave V as it is the riskiest and at some point we might even see a bearish reversal (BITCOIN historically hasn't performed well over the summers). On the left we have the resistances from the previous highs at 11800. Interestingly enough the 7450(0.5) level coincides with the x3.62 extension and the 8450(0.62) coincides with the 4.62 Wave III extension. Now that we've crossed 6400, these will be the next hard resistances bitcoin will look to break, or retreat from. Remember, bitcoin is still bearish turning into neutral on the weekly. Anything can happen so, comment your wave count and explanation. If you liked this Elliott wave take on bitcoin, give it a thumbs up and follow for more. There will be plenty of detailed analysis over the summer.

BTCUSD: Bulls vs. Bears - how convicted are you?This chart is a simple overlay of BTCUSDSHORTS (Blue) vs. BTCUSDLONGS (Red). It's obvious - since the end of 2017 BTCUSD the overall Bullish/Bearish conviction has changed from bullish to bearish. The lower highs at the bullish side indicating a loss of bullish conviction. On the bearish side, higher lows are showing more and more bearish conviction. Furthermore, BTCUSD has fallen under 5k USD and there is no V-shaped correction yet, which would indicate a high interest to buy BTC at such a "low" price. Why is there no V-shaped correction? The answer is very simple - more and more trader are NOT convicted of an increased BTCUSD price and more and more trader are convicted of a decreasing BTCUSD price. This leads me to conclude a further downtrend of BTCUSD price. Note: This is my first post and feel free to give me feedback or a like. If you disagree, feel free to comment your thoughts. We have all the same goals, and I am very convicted, that we all can learn from each other. :)

Critical Decision Point for Bitcoin, Once Again! Another critical level for Bitcoin as it is "trapped"! It remains yet to be seen whether #BTC will break out of it's shell for a midterm reversal or will bears bury it into the ground? We have all seen a lot of bull-bear battle going on with these insane spikey "pump-n-dump" and I also suspect there is a lot of manipulation underlying some of this in addition to big time players trying to move bitcoin's price around tossing it all over the place like a rag doll. This looks like a nightmarish no-trade zone for higher time-frame traders, but once this move is confirmed in either direction, it should generate a nice trade setup. The point of this analysis is: 1. To realize that we are at a critical decision point 2. To find out where/how to confirm once a decision has been made 3. To prepare to use this data combined with new data and confirmation of trend decision to possibly enter a high-probability trade More details on chart! **Any content of this published idea should not be relied upon as advice or construed as providing recommendations of any kind.
