Consolidation

4 Stages of Price Delivery (ICT Concepts)In this video I go through the 4 stages of price delivery as it pertains to ICT Concepts. Generally, the market is going through either of the following: Consolidation Expansion Retracement Reversal Price starts from a consolidation, where Smart Money accumulates their position, and then an expansion, where price is trending in a direction for the purpose of seeking liquidity and/or manipulating sentiment. From an expansionary phase, price will either retrace to re-accumulate orders and expand again, or have a complete reversal. Now, it is important to note that price is fractal, meaning the signatures you see on a lower timeframe perspective could also be seen on a higher timeframe perspective. In a singular candlestick, there can be multiple phases of price delivery happening. Once one can fit all these pieces together in regard to how market makers book price, one can have a clear insight into where price is likely going and where it likely won't go again, all with a high degree of accuracy.

Gold - Potential BreakoutHello Traders, welcome to today's analysis of Gold. -------- Explanation of my video analysis: With the beginning of 2013 Gold started to form a major higher timeframe rounding bottom formation. After the breakout in 2019 we then saw a bullrun followed by the current consolidation. Gold is now forming an ascending triangle which could lead to a massive breakout and I am waiting for a retest of the trendline mentioned in the analysis to add to my Gold longs. -------- I will only take a trade if all the rules of my strategy are satisfied. Let me know in the comment section below if you have any questions. Keep your long term vision.

Very basic understanding of support and resistance areas (2 min)In trading, support and resistance are key concepts that help traders analyze price movements and make informed decisions. Here's a basic explanation: Support: Definition: Support is a price level at which a financial instrument (like a stock, currency pair, or commodity) tends to stop falling and may even bounce back up due to buyers. Analogy: Think of support like a floor that prevents the price from falling further. It's a level where buyers are more inclined to enter the market, seeing the current price as attractive. Resistance: Definition: Resistance is a price level at which a financial instrument tends to stop rising and may face difficulty moving higher due to seller pressure. Analogy: Picture resistance as a ceiling that prevents the price from going higher. It's a level where sellers may be more active, considering the current price as too high. In summary, support and resistance are like psychological levels in the market where buying and selling interest tends to cluster. Traders use these levels to make decisions about when to enter or exit trades, set stop-loss orders, or identify potential trend reversals. When the price approaches support, traders may look for buying opportunities, while at resistance, they may consider selling or taking profits.

AUDUSD - Candlestick Analysis Not my favorite opportunity of the week but one that could be sneaky good because of the associated risk to reward ratio. The AUDUSD has been bouncing back and fourth in a period of consolidation for a while now with the most recent move being a retracement into a high volume level. We end last week with a very positive candlestick combination for the bears offering a potential short opportunity on the open. If you have any questions or comments about the idea, or if you just want to share your own views, please leave it in the comment section below. Akil

USOil | New perspective for the week | Follow-up detailOil prices did not advance beyond the surge to the $81.20 level, which came on the back of the announcement that the world’s largest oil producers will collude to cut a further 1.7 million barrels from the daily output. The inability of prices to go any higher could not be unconnected to some of the larger economic worries in the market. Hence, throughout the course of last week's trade, we witnessed price action traded within the $81.20 and $79.50 zone. From a technical standpoint, we have no choice but to remain patient for either a breakout or a breakdown of the channel for trading opportunities in the coming week.

Bitcoin Status: Biting our nails waiting for what's next?Everything feels and looks stagnant, what's going on? As mentioned before, it needs to correct a little bit, before it picks up again, which is (again as I said) .. fine. It does not mean that Bitcoin will retrace below the 25k. What I will do personally, is wait till tomorrow, I assume there will be a trigger over the weekend, that will move the markets. *Follow me to be able to receive updates like this (Of course, watch the video as I am explaining everything in detail).

The BIG Bitcoin Video Update!!! 25K or BUST!Conquerors! It has been a while since I made a tradingview update. I decided to make my newest video update here so everyone has the ability to see it. BTC has been in consolidation now for 9 FULL months (resistance 25k, support 16k). We have had the ability not to turn 25k into support, and we still have a chance too. Watch the video to find out why 25k is SO important. Crypto is in very interesting times and I am hoping for a new bull run but the economy and other markets give me reason to believe it will be difficult. Still, we have a chance for this, I want to keep us all updated. Have a great weekend everyone!

USDJPY | Perspective for the new week | follow-up detailsAt 64.9, the Michigan consumer sentiment index for February hits its highest level in eight months as falling energy prices eased fears about inflation. This is a positive signal as it is a widely-known gauge of personal consumer confidence in the US economic activity. From a technical standpoint, the significant breakout of the supply zone at the 131.000 area last week was an emphatic bullish signal buttressing the idea that sellers might have lost the momentum; but following the retest of structure, price action was caught within a consolidation phase above the key level (131.000) to emphasize the level of indecision in this market. In this video, we looked at the possibilities and trading options we have from the current market structure as we look out for breakouts either way in the coming week for trading opportunities.

XAUUSD | New perspective | follow-up detailsGold was unable to crack the psychological level at $1,950 to bring fresh hopes of a new wave of bullish momentum and this can not be unconnected to the reassuring U.S. economy as the fear of recession recedes at least in the meantime. Data reported on Friday reveals that the PCE Index grew 5% in the year to December, versus an annual expansion of 6.8% in June further bringing a positive light to the Greenback. From a technical perspective, we have identified a potential trend continuation pattern as the $1,920 zone continues to reject selling momentum throughout last week's trading session. We still keep the option of a sell-off open considering the continued sell pressure below the $1,940 zone which might lead to an outright breakdown/retest of both the trendline (identified on the 4H timeframe) and the $1,920 zone.
