AMZN: What's next?Hello traders and investors! As a request from @katgold, we will study AMZN today! And surprisingly, the situation is quite simple. We have a clear resistance at the ATH, which is the black line. But we have an upwards trendline supporting the price as well, which makes something like an Ascending Triangle chart pattern. Normally, Ascending Triangles are bullish patterns, especially in a bullish trend. Also, the volume decreased a bit in the last days, which is an indicator of a simple correction. And now the stock is going up, the volume is confirming the trend, accordingly to the Dow Theory 5th tenet. If I had to do something here, I would buy, especially if it gets closer to the purple trendline. If I were already in a trade, the stop-loss would be in the hourly chart: Since we are close to the ATH, I prefer to set a trailing stop in the previous supports/resistances zones, like this red line around 3244. If it closes under it, just book your profits. Of course, you may get out of the trade if AMZN loses its trendline in the daily chart, but I think that would requires some guts. The only thing that bugs me on AMZN is that the weekly chart is too stretched, and you can’t complain if you see a pullback to its 21 ema: But again, the trend is bullish, so, any pullback is just opportunity to buy. I see no clear targets for Amazon, but I would keep my eye open if it hits the ATH again. And I would just follow the strategy I mentioned above to keep myself in the trade if the trend continues. Nobody knows where Amazon will stop! This is my view for Amazon, and if it helped you, remember to support this idea! And you are invited to follow me to keep in touch with my daily analyses!

SPX: Complete weekly study.Hello traders and investors! Since it is Friday, let’s do a complete study on SPX, by doing a nice Multi Time Frame Analysis (MTFA). Therefore, I invite you to follow me if you are new around here. Every day, after the market closes, I’ll share a few thoughts here, and I’m sure you’ll find something you like! The black line in the hourly chart is the ATH. Yes, we are VERY close to it, which is amazing! But we have a top lower than the previous top (see the red line), and this might indicate to us that the bull trend will get weaker. Of course, there’s no confirmation yet , but this would be the first sign of a pullback (if there will be one). Right now, SPX is resisting at its support at its purple line (previous bottom), and only if it loses it, we will see some pullback. Again, pullback is different than bear trend ! Pullbacks are healthy and natural movements, and since we are in a bull trend, they offer us just opportunities to buy at a better price. Let’s see the daily chart for a better perspective: The trend is extremely bullish from here too. We filled the blue gap on the left, and we are going up almost without rest. Now that we are close to the ATH, maybe we will see a pullback, and the volume decreasing might be a sign for us (red arrow). And this is normal, ok? According to the Dow Theory 5th tenet: The Volume Must Confirm the Trend . A pullback with low volume is a good indicator that the trend is just taking a rest before the next movement. Also, the 21 ema is pointing up, and it would be a natural support for the price if a pullback occurs, as for the pink line at 3280. If you ask me, even a pullback to the blue line at 3196 would be ok, but the 3280 is a more reasonable target , especially if you look at the weekly chart: Since we are way too far from the 21 ema, and the previous top around the purple line would be a natural support for the price, it is not crazy to think about it as an important support zone. Of course, we are thinking about a possibility of a pullback, and these are the targets for this scenario. The trend is bullish, and the odds are that the ATH will be defeated in the mid-term. But since nothing can go up forever without a rest, we can work with this scenario. And of course, support this idea if you liked it (which is probably the case, otherwise, why would you still be here?).

BTC: market structure shows us the next likely path Recent price action of BTC has been disconcertingly stable. This has allowed alts to run, so I'm not complaining. But the question every trader is trying to answer is: which way next? What happens after all this consolidation - a final shakeout sub 8k before the inevitable rise, or a slow grind up that no-one believes until they're forced to capitulate and panic-buy? You could draw a thousand triangles over Bitcoin's price action, but looking at the last couple of months, I see a triangle forming, with an inconclusive ending (drawn in blue). It broke more up than down, but still basically sideways. What caught my eye is a change in the market structure. You can see it in the Williams Trailing Stops indicator, where we broke the yellow short stop line, but, unlike every previous break, we didn't immediately go and break the opposing trail (the orange stop line). In other words, we made a High, followed by a Higher Low. If price crosses the horizontal blue line, we will have made a Higher High. This signals an old-fashioned change in market structure, and gives us more reason to be bullish than bearish. Other Reasons To Be Cheerful are the daily exponential moving averages. I've added just three of them (21, 55, 89) to make the point. The 89 has held as support, the 21 stayed over the 55, and price is now the right side of them all. A few days of closes above the 21D EMA would have it start to curl up, "bouncing" off the 55, which would be a very bullish sign. Indicators used: TradingView Exponential Moving Average, Williams Fractal Trailing Stops

Tesla Inc.: A strong BUY on any short-term declinesThe technical chart of the stock shows a remarkably volatile price action in the last 10 trading weeks with huge appreciations and even steeper declines. Tesla’s stock has always been considered as a rather speculative play for growth oriented investors, thus people who are familiar with the stock are no strangers to volatility. However, the moves that we have observed recently have really set some records for the stock. After the company announced its 2nd consecutive earnings beat back on January 29th with its Q4 2019 earnings report and also gave an upbeat future guidance for 2020, the stock skyrocketed from $600 to $967 in two trading sessions. Soon after that astronomical 61% gain the stock started retracing and dropped to the $690-750 levels at the end of February, and looked quite comfortable there. However, the stock was then dragged lower with the rest of the market in March as a result of the global pandemic COVID-19 outbreak. The stock broke the initial horizontal support lying at $686, the secondary support at $542 and then proceeded its decline through the $455 tertiary support level to only stop at the 200-day moving average at the $350-360 zone. The company’s market capitalization lost 63% of its value in 4 weeks. We are long-term buyers of Tesla’s stock as a result of the great fundamental positioning that the company has, as we believe that it is poised to benefit from the accelerated demand for the company’s products in the coming years. Additionally, the fact that the company has finally managed to become profitable and is now consistently delivering strong financial results is another great indication for the bright future ahead for the stock. However, following our cross-sector, multi-layered confirmation correlation model we have concluded that Tesla Inc. (TSLA) will give our followers a better entry point for them to open their long-term buy positions in the stock, in the next few weeks. Thus, we would be interested in buying the stock on any pullback towards the $686 support level and will look to further add to our exposure to the stock in case the price revisits the next support zone around the $542. Our mid-term targets will be placed at the $890 and $995 marks respectively, with our extended long-term take profit levels positioned at the $1150 and $1220 per share.

We warned about the BEAR TRAP (again!)In my last analysis, I warned about the movement SPX was doing, which was very similar to the last bear trap I also warned here. I’ll put the links to my previous analyses bellow, and I invite you to follow me to keep in touch with our trades and analyses. It was a perfect déjà vu. Again, I saw a lot of people calling it a short trade, but we knew we should be careful here, and what I saw was exactly the same thing as the previous time . And I’ll repeat what Charles Dow said about a century ago: “Trends Persist Until a Clear Reversal Occurs”. Let’s take a look at the hourly chart: Two days ago, when SPX did that bearish candle in the daily chart the price was just doing a pullback in the hourly chart. That’s why is so important to look at different timeframes . But what’s incredible is that the same thing happened before, on Apr 28, and I warned about it too. Again, all the links bellow. But, what now? The real challenge here is to surpass the pink line in the daily chart, because that would trigger a pivot. Also look at the weekly chart: If we close above the 61.8% fib retracement it will be perfect. Maybe a V pattern in the weekly chart? That’s too optimistic in my opinion but yes, it's possible. Remember to follow me, I’m a trader who uses the classic technical analysis (barely any indicator, just the candles and the volume). Like this idea if it helped.

BTC at U$ 55k? Is it possible?What the chart can tell us about the future of BTC? There’re a lot of theories surrounding the crypto, and most of them are positively promising, and these theories are gaining strength now, specially with the halving coming this month. For instance, we have models that can be used to determinate the Bitcoin’s value, like the Stock-to-Flow model, which I find interesting and it makes sense, but what I’ll do here today is analyze the chart. Let’s look the weekly chart for a good perspective. Now, BTC is trading inside a descending channel for months, which is typical of a bear market, and here I’ll quote again what Charles Dow, the technical analysis’s father, said about a century ago: “Trends persist until a clear reversal occurs”. And that’s bad right? I mean, that “clear reversal” didn’t occurred yet. Yes, that’s true, but there’s a light at the end of the tunnel here. Look more carefully at the volume. During the last bullish movement (evidenced by the purple rectangle) the volume was low, even lower when compared to the whole year (evidenced by the red rectangle). That means that the bulls were not strong enough to change the trend. Now, we witnessed another good bullish reaction over the past weeks again, but this time there’s a difference. Look how the volume increased! Even the 21 moving average that is in the volume is going up now. Charles Dow also said: “Volume must confirm the trend”. And that could make the whole difference for BTC now. And if a bull market starts here, I firmly believe BTC will have the strength to breakout the U$ 14k and will test the U$ 20k again. At least that’s what the chart tells us. So, there’s a lot in stake here. With the halving coming and the price at such delicate moment, we are living one of the most decisive moments on the history of cryptos. Remember to follow me, I’m a trader who uses the classic technical analysis (barely any indicator, just the candles and the volume). Like this idea if it helped. Thank you very much. * LIKE this idea and FOLLOW me, because: - Here, you will see clean charts; - Trades with clear risk management; - The best of Dow Theory, Price Action and Candlestick psychology; - Chart patterns with statistics. * * My name is Nathan, I'm a trader and portfolio manager and I'm here to LEARN.

ALGO/BTC 8R longIn the current climate, trading alts is risky, but then when isn't it risky? For those that are risk-on.. ALGO looks interesting to me: Bounced off long-term support Has made a couple of higher highs and higher lows (Williams Trailing Stops) 8/21D EMA bull cross (Exponential Moving Averages) Solid green daily trend for the last 3 weeks (Price Action Trend | Simple) I'm thinking even if it goes where I want, it might range for a little between the nearest support and resistance zones, or at least come back to retest the 21D EMA. So my entry bid is at 0.00002735. Stop is under recent lows at 0.00002493. Targets are up to your style, but logical places would be under resistance zones: 0.00003786 (set stop in profit), 0.00004853 (for 8.5R), 0.005616 (and so on) I'll pull it on signs of general market weakness. Look at that weekly chart though - ALGO has great potential if alts do finally run.

DOW sparks will flyCatalysts for bull runs have been seen including symmetrical triangles, and three clear bullish divergences. A broadening wedge within a broadening wedge is present, these 52% of the time (according to bulkowski's chart patterns) result in a breakout downwards. Most often this chart pattern is found in bull markets. A clear cut case is the DOW. Going off purely TA a breakdown is likely from these high levels back towards the mean of the wedge , possibly even forming a symmetrical triangle or a falling wedge within the wedge to hold it. Monthly chart. If you are looking to buy, entering is fine as long as you are prepared for downsides and want to go long, as you can see the chart is clearly bullish .

downward gann fan exampleNot only can you use a gann fan in the upward position to help identify targets above, but it can be used in a downward position to help identify areas of resistance and to help predict runs out of a downtrend. The vast majority of the time when a stock passes through the last fan angle there is a significant run. Additionally, the vast majority of the time, when price action is out of the shadow of the downward gann fan the downward trend is over and the equity is in the recovery and accumulation phase. I have made many many profitable trades using this technique
