BTCUSD - Daily Simple Trading: Slanted Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern.
Analyzing Bitcoin, we can clearly see a downtrend that has reached the top of its trend zone. At this point, two scenarios are possible: either a breakout of the downtrend, signaling a return to the macro bullish trend, or a continuation of the downward movement, resulting in a false breakout.
Cryptos
Solana Trance DanceWe start the analysis of the potential futures with the white curve. This curve will eventually be bypassed and my first assessment is that it could be broken before the price MIGHT reach the triangle. After the bypass, significant support needs to be encountered in order for a bullish scenario to be validated or at least taken into consideration. For potential support zones we have most of the the elements in the snapshot, and going through them we have the following:
The purple curve. For the price to completely stay above the purple it needs a more robust bullish push and sentiment/mood, but even if it becomes resistance when/if broken down, we have price level 2, the green marked level of 139, and again, the big triangle. Looking for potential rebounds at any of these levels to consider the whole concept of the project as a candidate for success. (even if it is a break and a retest of any of these)
On the up, we have the 1 price level which could act as resistance, potentially triggering a correction towards 2, or other elements where it would be ideal to find support: green rectangle, purple curve, or even level 3, and last but not least -> the triangle.
Also on the up if the purple rectangle acts like a zone of influence for resistance or consolidation, hopefully these forces might disappear and let the price slide up as the rectangle ends.
For the last note, it is wise to be more flexible, not get caught up on a specific scenario, and just watch the market and the price action and look for signs of what could happen in a different tune than what we hope. With that being said, ALL ELEMENTS in the project can or could act as support AND resistance, meaning that if a bullish scenario doesn't hold ground, any of these shapes could provide a turning point and reversal or change in tune. Hopefully the overall design of it will prove relevant, and the price will act in certain ways near these objects, making it easier to navigate on the Solana River into the future wherever it may take us, on the path of least resistance, similar to a Trance Dance.
Party like it's 1999. But where? Bermuda? Havana? Turkey? or Shamballah? I hear the Moon is freezing cold but some might want to go there anyway. :)
Somethin will happenBullish flag, a big one is forming. If you like crypto this is a must. Buy now, and keep buying at every dip. This could blow up the entire place at any time in the upcoming weeks. SL triggers if a weekly candle breaks down the support zone and closes below it with tons of volume.
Bitcoin. Is it going to make a more complex wave 4?A few months ago I was thinking that BTC was going to develop wave 5 towards 180K. But this behavior is not very encouraging. I have this alternative count in mind: A more complex wave 4 where this top is wave B, and we will see a C wave down to have an ABC flat pattern to complete wave 4. We shall see
Will BTCUSD go to the Downside? Will BTCUSD go to the Downside or continue Breaking Structure to the Upside?
BTCUSD has been increasing more than 8% since May 10, till arriving today to near 65,000.
Will BTCUSD continue breaking structure to the Upside?
Or will respect the Resistance Levels around 65 or 66,000?
I'm open to ideas and comments.
Thank you!
BTC - short-term, medium-term, and long-term trading planHello, traders and investors! This is Shark, and today we'll discuss trading plans for the BTC asset.
This trading idea includes long-term, medium-term, and short-term trading plans.
Long-term plan (pink):
On the global chart, an ascending channel has formed with a 1000% step. The maximum from December 1, 2019, reached at 19666, formed support in November 2022. The asset's price is currently near the global maximum at 69000. Pay attention to the duration of previous ascending cycles: the first cycle in 2017 lasted 184 days, and the next one - 365 days in 2020. It can be assumed that the current cycle will last two or three times longer, meaning a minimum of 800 days.
Medium-term plan (blue):
Local levels are taken from the weekly timeframe - correction channel levels! The maximum of the current upward trend is 71754. The constant technical value of ATR (average true range indicator) is about 49%. After the price passes this ATR, flats and sideways movements are observed! The medium-term possible scenario is a price decline to 52884 and further growth to global highs around 183000 per bitcoin.
Short-term plan (yellow):
On the daily chart, local channels with a 49% step are visible. The price movement's ATR is within 22% - daily movement stop levels split local channels in half. It's important to note the ascending trend line drawn from the September 23 minimum - as long as the asset price remains above it, an aggressively ascending trend is maintained. A second trend line with higher amplitude is drawn, the price has repeatedly confirmed this trend and is currently near it. If the level of 60760 holds as support, a 22% rise to the global maximum of 73000 is expected, confirming the continuation of the upward trend. If the level of 60760 is breached in the coming days, the path to values of 52884 will open.

Good luck 😉
Can ETH Outperform BTC?ETHBTC is one of those charts, which can be telling us that volatility is near. Loking at the daily price chart, it can be actually finishing a larger (A)-(B)-(C) correction, currently seen in final stages of the wedge pattern within subwave 5, with ideal swing zone here around channel support line , 0.045 – 0.040 area. So, as we have been talking about for a while, BTC.dominance might slow down and ALTcoins may kick in, so ETH may try to catch Bitcoin soon. Just keep in mind that the first bullish evidence for ETHBTC is only above 0.061 region.
Could price drop from here?Bitcoin (BTC/USD) has just rejected off the pivot which acts as an overlap resistance and could potentially drop to the 1st support.
Pivot: 63,223.31
1st Support: 60,588.92
1st Resistance: 65,521.94

Where do we go now? (Short term)History tells us many things, but this time, the market is different with all the etf, war, government intervention, BTC halving etc. Since we need at least one 50% drop in a bullrun, I'm still not sure what to think: now, or a bit later? If we look at the chart, we only had a 22% drop and thats not enough. Lets see. Bullish short term? Or bearish. Lets see! We're running outta time
HODL with a TwistCME: Micro BTC Futures ( CME:MBT1! )
Federal Reserve monetary policy is the dominant market mover across asset classes. Financial markets around the world rise and fall by any hint of the next policy move.
Last Friday, US stocks jumped after a weak April jobs report boosted hopes that the Fed could start cutting interest rates soon. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 450 points, or 1.18%, to 38,675. The S&P 500 surged 1.26% to 5,128, while the Nasdaq Composite rallied 1.99% to close at 16,156.
The nonfarm payrolls report, released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, showed 175,000 jobs gain in April, below the 240,000 jobs expected by Dow Jones economist survey. The unemployment rate edged up to 3.9%, versus 3.8% in March.
After the jobs report, traders now price in a second rate cut by the end of 2024. Fed funds futures trading data suggests a 66% likelihood of a 25-basis-point rate cut in September, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch tracker of futures market pricing.
Don’t Pinch Your Hope on More Rate Cuts
Investors often attempt to front run the Fed’s decisions. Track records show that they are usually wagering the wrong bet. As recently as last December, they expected seven rate cuts in 2024 and pushed major stock indexes to a series of new record highs. Lately, the rebounding inflation ditched the hopes for early rate cuts. Before last week, market consensus was down to one rate cut in 2024, with talks of no cut and even a rate hike.
In my opinion, investors speculating on rate cuts overlooked a key factor, the 2024 US Presidential Election. With election day less than six months away, the Fed would be cautious with abrupt policy moves. They tend not to shift policy directions ahead of the election, just to stay clear of any accusation of influencing the result in any way.
Many investors pinch rate cut hopes on the assumption that the Fed would ease rates to help the current Administration get reelected. They failed to understand that the Fed Chair is not a cabinet member. He reports to the Congress, not the President. The Federal Open Market Committee, the rate-setting body, is not a department in the Executive Branch. It was founded by the Congress and will report to the Congress only.
The Fed has kept the rate higher for longer than many of us expected. Since the last rate hike in July 2023, they kept the Fed Funds rate unchanged in the past six meetings.
Borrowing costs, including mortgage rate, auto financing, credit card and business loan, have all been pushed up significantly in the last two years. One or two rate cuts would not materially lessen the cost burden incurred by households and businesses.
Despite headwinds and signs of the US economy cooling off, US stocks are currently priced near their all-time high levels. It is not a good time to jump in and chase the high prices. On the other hand, shorting the market now is a risky proposition. Investors exhibit strong tolerance for bad news. The best move is to wait. Outside of stocks, cryptocurrencies show upside potentials, particularly from a long-term perspective.
Investing in Bitcoin for the Long Haul
On February 14th, I posted this trade idea, “A Bitcoin Bull Run?”. At the time, spot Bitcoin was trading at around $50,000. Bitcoin reached a new all-time-high of $73,000 on May 3rd. It has since fallen to as low as $58,000 and is now trading at $64,125.
I identified three fundamental key drivers for a secular long-term bull market for cryptocurrencies, which is recapped below:
• Firstly, there is a limited supply of bitcoins with a total cap of 21 million.
• Secondly, the demand for crypto investment could increase substantially.
• Thirdly, an excessive dollar supply could help raise bitcoin prices.
Today, I would like to focus on the technical strength illustrated in Bitcoin price chart. In the past eight years, Bitcoin managed to reach a new high four times, after experiencing significant drawdown each time.
• After peaking at $20,089 in 2017, Bitcoin fell 84% to $3,191 by December 2018.
• The next bull run, starting in September 2020, pushed Bitcoin price to a new ATH at $58,777 in March 2021. This is a gain of 192% from the previous ATH, and up 1742% from the previous low.
• Bitcoin price was cut in half to $29,562 in July, before rising to another ATH of $69,000 in November 2021. This is a gain of 17% from the previous ATH, and up 133% from the previous low.
• In the next year, Bitcoin fell to $16,625, a drawdown of 76%. The SEC approval of Bitcoin ETF pushes the benchmark cryptocurrency to its new ATH of $73,000 in March 2024. This is a gain of 6% from the previous ATH, and up 339% from the previous low.
Bitcoin price trend shows that investing in Bitcoin in the long run has been profitable. However, timing makes a significant difference in investment returns.
Trading Bitcoin with Futures Rollover Strategy
While the view of holding on for dear life (HODL) is shared by many Bitcoin investors. There are several issues when it comes to investment strategies.
Firstly, with bitcoin trading over $64,000, future price increases do not offer the same level of return dollar for dollar. Hypothetically, if Bitcoin goes back up to its ATH of FWB:73K from GETTEX:64K , the $9,000 gain equals to 14% in return. For a comparison, if you bought Bitcoin for $17K in December 2022, the same $9,000 gain would be 53% in return. To counter the effect of higher prices, investors could consider using leverage.
CME Micro BTC futures ( LSE:MBT ) provide leverage and capital efficiency. The contract notional is 1/10 of 1 BTC. Initial margin is $1,515. The June contract (MBTM4) was last settled at $63,865. At current price there is a 4.2 times leverage built in the contract, which is the ratio of 6,386.5 (1/10 of 1 BTC) divided by 1,515. If the futures price touches the previous ATH, a long futures position would gain $913 (= 7,300-6,387), and the return would be a +60%, vs. +14% investing in spot Bitcoin, as we illustrated above.
Secondly, futures contracts have a limited lifespan that will influence the outcome of your trades and exit strategy. Micro Bitcoin trades actively in the nearby May and June contracts. Liquidity in the back-month contracts has yet to pick up. A trader may be right about the long-term rise in Bitcoin prices. However, this may not happen in the next two months before the nearby contracts expire.
To maintain a long position in Bitcoin over the long run, while enjoying capital efficiency through leverage, a trader may employ a futures rollover strategy.
Rollover is when a trader moves his position from the front month contract to another contract further in the future, prior to the expiration of his existing holding.
The title chart illustrate how to hold a long Micro Bitcoin Futures (MBT) position overtime:
• In April, a trader buys (going long) a June contract (MBTM4).
• Approximately two weeks before the contract expires on June 28th, the trader enter an offsetting trade, going short on MBTM4, to close his existing position. He would book a profit or loss, determined by the difference in selling and purchasing prices.
• Simultaneously, the trader would buy an August MBT contract (MBTQ4) and reestablish a long position in Bitcoin.
• In mid-August, the trader will close out MBTQ4 (going short), and buy an October contract (MBTV4), and continue to hold a long position on Bitcoin.
• The trader would repeat the above steps, so far as he holds a bullish view.
Finally, Bitcoin prices are extremely volatile. Holding spot Bitcoin with no leverage could face potential drawdown of 70%-80%. With leverage in futures, a sharp price move in the wrong direction could quickly deplete the available fund and trigger margin calls.
One advantage Micro Bitcoin has over the spot crypto is the daily price limit. If Bitcoin moves up or down 10% within the trading day, futures trading will be halted. This will give the market time to cool off and help investors avoid being blown out by short-term panic.
Experienced investors may consider using stop loss on futures or buying a protective put options to hedge such downside risks.
Happy Trading.

BTC: Two potential target prices
- Two critical support zones correspond with the 0.382 and 0.618 Fibonacci retracement levels of the entire swing from A to B, enhancing the significance of these support levels.
- After two months of ranging, the price finally broke below the critical support zone as volume spiked, confirming the breakout and leading to a significant drop.
- If the price does not return above the first support zone , two potential target prices can be anticipated:
1. A 100% extension of the large purple box.
2. A 100% extension of the small blue box. Note that this target price perfectly aligns with the previous key resistance-turned-support level.

> Trading a descending channel pattern involves identifying a bearish trend where the price consistently forms lower highs and lower lows within a channel. Here's how you can approach trading this pattern:
1. **Identify the Descending Channel:** `The first step is to recognize the descending channel pattern on a price chart. Look for a series of lower highs and lower lows forming parallel trendlines sloping downwards. This pattern suggests a bearish trend where sellers are in control. Confirm the pattern by ensuring that the price touches both the upper and lower trendlines multiple times.`
2. **Entry and Exit Points:** `When trading a descending channel pattern, consider selling (shorting) near the upper trendline of the channel when the price reaches this level. This is where resistance is likely to be strong, presenting an opportunity to enter a trade with lower risk. Set a stop-loss order above the upper trendline to manage risk in case the price breaks out of the channel. Aim to exit the trade near the lower trendline of the channel, where buying pressure may increase, providing a potential opportunity to take profits.`
3. **Risk Management and Confirmation:**` Implement proper risk management techniques to protect your capital. This includes setting stop-loss orders to limit potential losses if the trade goes against you. Additionally, look for confirmation signals such as bearish candlestick patterns, negative momentum divergence, or other technical indicators aligning with the descending channel pattern to increase the probability of a successful trade. `
Remember, trading patterns carry inherent risks, and it's essential to practice proper risk management and conduct thorough analysis before making trading decisions. Additionally, consider using a combination of technical indicators and fundamental analysis to enhance your trading strategy and increase the probability of success.
BTCUSDTBTCUSDT is still in an uptrend. The price is currently in the correction phase. It is expected that there will be an opportunity to test the important support zone 53037-50358. If the price cannot break through the level 50358, it is expected that there is a chance that the price will rebound. Consider buying a red zone.

GBTC Is Looking For A Bullish Resumption After Bitcoin HalvingWe talked about bullish GrayScale Bitcoin Investment Trust (GBTC) already back on February 28th with a weekly free chart, where we mentioned and highlighted an ongoing five-wave impulsive bullish cycle.
Well, as we actually expected, after GBTC reached all-time highs, we can see a projected slow down that looks like a wave (4) correction.
A correction actually occurred a month before the Bitcoin halving and finished right before the Bitcoin halving. And, as you can see now in a closer, 4-hour chart after the halving, GBTC is bouncing from projected support after a completed A-B-C correction in wave (4), so wave (5) is now in progress, which can easily lift Bitcoin price back to highs as well.
XAUUSD 1HR Simple trading - Support and resistance
*HEAD N SHOULDER TP HIT(prev chart)
*Potential Bullish Wedge Forming
Conclusion, Look to sell after a pullback to 2230
The Why:
With robust economic indicators propelling interest rate yields upward and the potential for geopolitical tensions in the Middle East to abate, the question arises whether gold, traditionally seen as a safe-haven asset, has relinquished its appeal.
For traders monitoring the gold market, the pivotal point to observe lies in whether the price manages to breach the crucial support level at 2330, as illustrated in the accompanying image. This level has historically attracted significant buyer interest, underscoring its importance in the market dynamics.
However, it's worth exercising caution for bearish traders. Despite the recent fluctuations, gold continues to exhibit a formidable uptrend on the daily chart. Moreover, the fluid nature of geopolitics suggests that unforeseen developments could swiftly reignite bullish sentiment, potentially propelling gold to retest and surpass its previous all-time highs.
In essence, while the current market conditions may hint at a potential selloff, the interplay of economic data and geopolitical factors underscores the need for vigilance and adaptability in trading strategies.
