Countertrend

BTCUSDT HIGH RISK SHORT OPPORTUNITY ALMOST SAME AS THE SOL TRADELooking at the markets I understand it's an attempted short squeeze but I don't see it going much higher without retracement. You see the wicks are showing exhaustion and this is a very risky play with no confirmation for maximum gain. Potential reward is great but it is risky, especially going against the trend like this. I am monitoring the volume footprints to make a final decision. This is not my normal trade style but I see opportunity I like to take it. Remember your risk tolerance and don't use over 2x leverage if you have to use any at all. Could use an ABC reversal pattern for confirmation but not the best entry. Not necessarily a reversal either more a retracement or counter trend trade. Not financial Advice just a fun idea. A DeDen play basically but a looks promising. Let me know what you think. Is it too risky? Like any trade make it your own and modify it to fit your trade strategy and style and for heavens sake use a SL. Good Luck -NFA KUCOIN:BTCUSDT

EUR/USD – Stuck In A Descending ChannelHi Traders, As we are noticing a bounce in the forex market and as we are thinking the bulls might be coming back to start doing some damage control, we have to remember to zoom out to see what the real trend is. When in doubt, zoom out. On (EUR/USD), In the daily time frame, the price has been stuck in this descending channel since the end of January. Price has been making lower lows and lower highs since the beginning of 2022. Now, if you were a swing trader and managed to catch that double top at the end of January as a short entry and rode this pair down all this way, you would have made yourself 12% over a period of 100 days. That would be incredibly good and there are a lot of traders that have capitalized on these opportunities to go short that the Euro has given us this year. For those of us that have not had any short positions and have only missed every possible entry, well, never fear as the markets always have endless amounts of opportunity. If we jump into the 4-hour time frame, we can see that the bulls are showing their horns at the moment. However, back on the daily, it still looks like we are in bear territory. Now, I like to see a clear bounce off of the support and off of the resistance channel bottom and top to signify and validate a clear channel. Look how many taps we have had on the bottom and the top of the channel. Let's count them out. Four taps on the bottom. Six taps on the top. We can safely say that we are stuck in a channel. I also like to see the price respect the middle zones of the channel. Notice how the price has done so. Every time it touches the middle of the channel, it respects that area and treats it as Support and Resistance on the way down. So, it's all very well and good that we have identified a bearish trend and price stuck in this Daily descending channel. What good is it to us? Well, we have to look for opportunities right? Either to sell or to go long. Right now, there's no point in selling the channel bottom is there? Haha, on the 4-Hour we might see a pattern that we can use to go long. However, on the Daily, we are waiting for the price to close today above the line of resistance I have drawn. Perhaps upon a retracement to that line, we can carry this pair north to the channel top. Please remember that we need to see a reason to buy and by buying, please remember we will be going counter-trend. So our reason has to be solid. We can use the channel top as a target as we can see previously that when the price touched the bottom of the channel at the beginning of previous months, by the end of the month, the price had reached the top of the channel. This is by no means an accurate strategy that one should employ, I'm just pointing interesting things out. Please trade them at your own risk. However, I would just suggest rigorous amounts of back-testing first. One more interesting thing to notice – Volume. Look how it has been sloping downwards along with the channel. The lower price got, the less buying and selling there was and the less amount of power it took to push the price down. Should we be looking for a pop sometime soon? Things that make you go hmmm. On that note, I bid you all a great Tuesday and I will be seeing you all in the next one. The Vortex Trader

EURUSD-Weekly Market Analysis-Jul22,Wk4The Bullish Deep Crab Pattern on the Daily Chart might not form up, and even if it did, it might not be ideal. However, if you have long based on the counter-trend trade on the Bearish Parallel Channel, congratulation is in place.(check out last week's chart at the bottom of the tradingview link). Alternatively, you can wait for the Bearish Shark Pattern on the 4-hourly timeframe to complete, hitting the first target and waiting for a buying opportunity on a 5-0 pattern setup. In trading, being patient is important.

TWE.ASX - FUNCHARTS - Does Corn Really Lead Treasury Wines?Note: Funcharts are interesting charts I have found that offer a potentially unique perspective on a stock. Sometimes I’ll throw something out there that you might find controversial or wrong headed. If that’s the case your 2 cents worth is most welcome. The blue line in the graph above is corn (futures) projected forward, now why on earth would corn lead the Treasury Wines share price? While I let you ponder the answer to that the correlation between a projected forward corn price and TWE has been relatively high through history at approximately 30%, simply scroll back through the chart and you can see for yourself that corn has a pretty good track record of leading TWE. Now that we have a projection of sorts the next step would be to conjure up a trade based on this intermarket relationship (if it truly does indeed exist). Let me draw your attention to the system on screen, it is a reverse of the Supertrend STRATEGY (Inputs: ATR Length, 3, Factor 1.5) where it buys the short term dips and sells the short term rallies. An analysis of performance shows that TWE is a very choppy stock. To see performance scroll down to the bottom of the chart and make sure Supertrend STRATEGY is showing. Now the next trick is to view the Performance Summary (not overview) where is breaks down the performance of long trades v short trades. An analysis of long trades shows buying dips was highly profitable with a profit factor above 2 and a high percentage of winning trades. With this evidence the way I would trade TWE is to use Corn, or seasonal analysis or similar to obtain a bullish bias and then look to buy into a pull back on TWE. Once set I would then look to sell the position once the stock reached an overbought level. Stop Losses are a little difficult to set on a mean reversion strategy as theoretically the bigger the pull back the better the opportunity but I would suggest a fairly wide stop level of around 10-15% of the stock price as an emergency stop in case the trades really goes wrong. The question you're obviously asking is should I get long now? In my opinion awaiting a pull back is probably the best strategy, you could use a stochastic or RSI indicator (or any oscillator) for that matter and look to enter during oversold zones and close out during an overbought period.
