Falsebreakout
OXY, A TRUE example of FALSE break out !Regardless of what legendary investors (Like Warren Buffett ) or famous traders do, we always should trade our own strategy.
OXY was fighting with a strong static resistance and finally lost the battle. We have 9 hits to this static line which shows how powerful it is.
False break outs are among the most common traps in trading . Although the concept is very simple , many traders fall simply into the trap just because of lack of patience or weak risk management strategy.
Please keep this words in mind and I promise you will be the winner in long term : " Be sure about a break out before jumping into a trade " .
True break outs have three conditions:
1. Break out should be done by a strong high volume bullish candle and at least 50 % of body of such candle should be placed above the valid resistance.
2. A pull back to broken resistance and rotation is necessary to be sure about true break out. Please note sometime we may not see a complete pull back ( if there is a support before broken resistance) but who can accept the risk of false break out?
3. Continuation of movement in direction of break out.
Occidental Petroleum fulfilled first condition in it's last attempt ( if we close our eyes to volume) with a gap up bullish candle above the resistance. It made also a pull back but no rotation and continuation of the upside movement came after that. It means we had a false break out.
I investigated false break outs of a dynamic resistance in my previous publication on BTC and here I showed an example of false break out of static resistance. Regardless of type of resistance (dynamic or static) , concept is the same.
True break out setup has been shown on the chart. As you see the concept is very simple. Please keep this concept in mind and believe me you won't regret.
Wish you huge profits and good luck.
What are True and False Break Outs ?False Break outs impose considerable loss to traders. How to recognize a false break out?
To recognize a false break out we should first learn what is a true break out? In fact,simply, Every break out which is not a true one is a false break out.
BTC in it's recent movements shows two beautiful example of false break outs. As shown on the chart, we have a dynamic resistance line with three clear rejections and two false break outs. It means before 1st break out which was 4th rejection BTC had a chance to break out the resistance but it never succeeded. Why?
A true break out has three important conditions :
1. first of all, Break out should be done by a strong high volume bullish candle and at least 50 % of body of such candle should be placed above the valid resistance.
2. A pull back to broken resistance and rotation is necessary to be sure about true break out. Please note sometime we may not see a complete pull back ( if there is a support before broken resistance) but who can accept the risk of false break out?
3. Continuation of movement in direction of break out.
As we can see, BTC in it's 4th and 5th attempts to break the line was unsuccessful even to fulfill the first condition.
Also shown on the chart is what could have been a true break out.
Although simple in concept, false break outs are headaches for some traders. What makes traders to fall in the trap of false break outs is not because of complexity of the concept ( As it is very simple ). It is about controlling emotions and psychology.
Good luck everybody.
NZDUSD SHORT SWINGIts about time. Potential Move to 0.60000 to complete cycle of Quarter Levels. Have posted this severally and was waiting for a confirmation. Current reversal level has seen price break the Monthly High Price and pull back. This could be a Fake move to induce Long position since the Monthly Bar just closed was a PIN BAR. A high chance that retail traders will trade the PIN BAR long a.k.a Price Action.
BTCUSD, Daily, Continuation of the downtrend?Due to a similar formation that has already occurred twice, I predict a breakout from the channel and further drops, maybe to the retracement of 13850, where there is a demand and a fibo retracement. Even stronger support levels are on the retracement of 10850 and on retracements lower than 9000 (also fibo levels). This construction is based on a channel, a false breakout, and a bounce of the downtrend line. Because the price bounced off the trendline triple (I count only main bounces), I think that it is the last or penultimate bounce. We are still in a downtrend. Following that, I would forecast consolidation-accumulation.
As my forecast is quite complex, chances are it will come true according to the arrows I have drawn. It is possible, for example, that we will have a head and shoulders pattern (or as I call it, a Dick pattern) + a rebound from the downtrend line, not from the bottom channel.

Resistance | Third wave | 1.272 FibEx - $300On 2H TF
Binance Chain ( BINANCE:BNBUSDT is in Ascending Channel. It's at 265
I figure out a support in range 229 - 237 equal 0.5 FibRe and 0.618 FibRe. We can trader in lower timeframes with these support.
Besides, BNB's dropped out twice nearly 13% and 16%.
So, two support at 229 and 237.
Elliott Wave Theory
- Invalidation Level below 215. Target of next downward at 150.
- Target of third wave at 300
Let's wait and see
MOO running out of grassHey everybody,
I've been following MOO as of late as I'm currently short DE and waiting on an entry for CAT short as well; I've noticed that it has essentially been forming a Wyckoff-style distribution pattern, and is one of the few sectors in this market that isn't brutally beaten down at this point. I'm currently expecting a countertrend rally upwards in this name, but I fully expect the rally to be faded and for this sector to enter a brutal markdown phase that will take it to pre-pandemic levels well before 2023. The question in my eyes is when and where will the rally be faded? My current ideal entry short on this name rests around $92/share
DOTUSDT is going to create a false breakout?The price is creating a triangle below the 4h resistance where the market created a supply zone. If you look on the left you can see how the price got rejections from that area.
How to approach it?
IF the price is going to get new liquidity with a false breakout and get a new rejection, According to Plancton's strategy , we can set a nice order

ADA is this a breakout?ADA in downtrend for last 190 days and it seems it is breaking out of the descending channel.
We had expected a pump from 0.8 which was the untested low.
Analysis
The blue line is a trendline which is acting as great resistance and its from ATH
The green line acting as support line
The red line is the line which act as breakout resistance
History shows us there is 2 previous false breakout on ADA
Also 21 and 100 weekly moving average are also acting is resistance.
As it seems there are so many resistance factor on the chart so its safe to assume this another fake breakout and lets wait for a successful retest of the trendline.
Close but no Cigar for Chainlink!!Looks to good to be true, but this is just another failed attempt to try and break resistance @ $11.50. If and when it fails we will see $9 inevitably. But on the upside that would be our final destination. Good luck! Just my opinion
AUDCAD | Perspective for the new weekAUDCAD has straddled a 6.8% price corridor since the start of the year, giving us, at first sight, a bearish bias considering the bearish trendline identified on the daily timeframe. However, the appearance of a reversal structure and breakout out of structure signal on the 4H timeframe; the possibility that price might break out of the bearish trend line the second time to set the tone for a bullish momentum in the coming week.

SPX: Complete trend analysis (H, D and W charts).Hello traders and investors! Let’s see how the SPX is doing today!
First, in the 1h chart, it lost the support level we mentioned yesterday (4,200), and it dropped a little bit more after that. However, we see some reaction right now, and if the index closes above the 4,200, the market might understand it as a false breakout from a previous support, making this a possible bear trap.
This would be a good bullish sign, but we don’t see any clear bullish reversal structure yet. We are still doing lower highs/lows, and the 21 ema is pointing down, and to me, we must see more confirmation in order to call it a buy again.
If the index is about to reverse, now is the best time for it:
In the daily chart, we see that the index is trying to stabilize at a very important support level around the 4,167, which supported the price at least 5 times in the past.
What’s more, this support level could be the neckline of a Head & Shoulders chart pattern in the weekly chart:
This tells us that this the last chance the SPX will have to react, otherwise, it’ll engage a bear trend for good. It is important to notice that it is dropping in the last 4 weeks, but the volume was below the average, and this gives me the impression that the market is dropping because people are just afraid and aren’t buying, instead of actually selling (or shorting) at this level.
The moment couldn’t be more complex and crucial. Regardless of what the SPX will do next, it seems we’ll have our answer soon, in the next few days. I’ll keep you guys updated on this every day, so, remember to follow me to keep in touch with my daily analyses!
ETHUSDT had a false breakoutThe price is creating a pennant below the daily resistance and the price had a false breakout. On the daily timeframe, the price tested the 0.618 Fibonacci level with a nice candle.
As you can see on the left the price created a W pattern and now the price is trying to have a breakout from the neckline.
How to approach?
The price needs to have a breakout from the weekly resistance and retest the daily resistance as support on 3200$, According to Plancton's strategy , we can set a nice order

BTC: "Was 69k just a false breakout?" I believe BTC's second run up to 69k was a massive false breakout created by an overheated market and it is currently backtesting the breakout zone of a massively bullish symmetrical triangle on 1W.
If this is truly the case and it's not simply a rising flag it would have price targets of 75.5k and 97k.
What do you all see?
