Harmonic Patterns
Same pattern different resultsIn the graph I have rounded two points..the curves look similar but difference between two moves are..the above curve retested the resistance level..but it took downward path..
The below curve why it exploded up? The reason is after retest near the resistance it consolidated near the resistance that's a indicator of a bullish move..the inner circle below circled one is the consolidated area
The Big Picture of CompositeThis is the big picture of IDX Composite Index using Harmonic Pattern (Bearish Gartley) as projection, Pivot Points Yearly as S/R and Gann Fan as Trendline.
It will happen as long as index break 2 trend line of gann fan (3/1 & 4/1) and S4 pivot points (yearly).
It will be canceled:
1) If Index break and stay in S2 area untill the end of year. Index become sideway around S2 and S3 Pivot Points.
2) If Index can't break S4 this year and stay under S3, Index become sideway around S4 and S3.
3) Break and stay above Pivot Points Area will try new trend (bullish) which is less possible to happen.
eurgbp harmonic patternhello everyone EurGbp is ricing like a rocket right now
we expect to reach resistance line that mentioned in chart
here is that AB=Cd is complete and we expect a gartley pattern as well
notice that its opposite of trend so Enter with at most 3% of your equality
notice that target is based on fibonacci and lowest profit that is available in this case
my strategy is based on
1 : fibonacci
2 : harmonic pattern gartley and Ab=CD
3 : trend line and channel trading
4 ; Rsi h4
notice that in order to enter this trade you should see some confirmations like : candlesticks formation , indicator,s signs (ichimoku , moving average and ... )
then at last wait for break higher low to enter short
Hope you Enjoy

Impact of Presidential Election on Financial Markets.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hello Traders Investors And Community.
Welcome to this educational idea about the Impact of Presidential Election on Financial Markets. First of all, this is not a political view at all nevertheless we
are facing the next important event that can have a substantial effect on the financial markets and therefore also important for traders and investors. Coming
to this conclusion the history has shown that the presidential election and its pre also as post events can be suited into a whole presidential-election-cycle in
which the several stages and timeframes within the cycle affecting the performance of markets.
For this case, I looked at the past data and how presidential elections affected market performances and found out some very interesting and worthwhile
things about it, these data resulting from the past election data can be measured into a 1.5-Year-Presidential-Pre-And-Post-Election-Performance-Cycle and
the whole 4-Years-Presidential-Election-Performance-Cycle , both cycles are measured by historical market data and have a logical and coherent approach
within them as the reelected or elected party together with the president playing an elementary role within it.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
1.5-Year-Presidential-Pre-And-Post-Election-Performance-Cycle:
As you can watch in the graph on my chart, the past data has shown that it is a meaningful factor wether the elected party gets reelected or other party gets
elected. This is matching with the theory that the new elected party needs to adjust firstly to increase economy properly, however what they both have in
common is the decline in the first year after election where the market has shown decrease whether under the incumbent party or new elected party.
Furthermore, the graph shows that certainly after the first year since election has passed the market tends to increase where with incumbent parties the
market performed better and on the contrary, with a new elected party the perfomance of the market increased also however not that big as with the
incumbent party where the increase was partially four times higher.
Besides that what is also really interesting here is the difference between the incumbent party and new elected in the last six month to the new election,
where the market showed some steady decrease in growth however still an increase with the incumbent party while under the new elected not that
much and also showed declines to the downside.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
4-Years-Presidential-Election-Performance-Cycle:
This graph shown in the left bottom of my chart is explicating the importance of the 4-years passing after a election, where the market clearly showed a
weaker performance and possible declines in the first year after election which is matching also with the first graph and 1.5-years. This can result of a first
adjustment in the market to this fundamental macroeconomic event before it can regain in pace together with the elected party and economic policies.
The performance increased averagely steadily in the second year after election in historical price data till it reached its peak in the third year before election
as the sitting party and president going into the objectives they have set in the campaign to increase the economy and with the goal to get reelected, this
data was fairly consistent, regardless of the presidents and party political leanings.
In the first year the peak performance going a little bit back which is also matching with the first graph where it also counts on the incumbent party or the
new one, this year is the preparation on the new election and data has shown that performance has experienced steply declines till the election countdown.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Conclusion:
Taking all these factors into consideration we can say that the market in the first year after election begins to grow slowly and firstly adjustes to the election
results as the party comes in touch with it, then the performance begins to grow after the second year, here is it also a fundamental factor if the incumbent
party got reelected or a new party got elected, as the incumbent reelection showed averagely better results. This tendency to the upside reaches its peak at
the third year and then falls slowly till the election countdown. These data has been really coherent and repeatedly in the past that is why the election cycle
is an important measurement that should not be kept by side. At the end it has to be noted that a massive swift in politics can also transform the cycle into
other performances, however, this did not happen till now.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Outlook:
It is no more than two months till the next election is taking place and it will be an significant occurrence as historical data has shown if the incumbent
party currently consisting wins the election anew or new party is going to taking place which can change performances. Not only by the fact that history
has shown declines in the first year after election we should not ignore that the corona crisis is still not yet over and that there exists a gap between real
economy and stocks where real economy is still damaged by the corona increase and measurements while stock market making gains, this is an unhealthy
environment which can unload itself, the real economy and stock market need to grow together for providing a solid market growth, this current economic
disadvantaged situation matching with the first performance year after an election which is averagely not the best can take place into an inconsistent market
outlook, therefore we should not keep the decline perspective out of sight especially the weeks and months it can show up in critical movements.

For the purposes of this Live Trading exercise, we have used $50,000 USD of our own funds.
All of the trades, placed above, involved:
- 2 ea. Nasda100 E-mini contracts (2x $16k margin);
- 4-6 (Full sized) Forex lots ($4k-$6k margin);
---
Basing the results on the $50,000 actual capital used, the one week (135 hours) long Live Trading session(s) resulted in:
$21630 in Net Profit, or = 56.74% Net Return on Capital. (hence, the title of this post.)
==========================================================================================================
p.s. BTW, this does not mean that we will repeat this "exercise" - as in live posting -, right away, this coming week :-)
Good luck out there!
Trading Triangles: Part TwoAt Target One of the Daily Triangle 50% of the position is closed.
It would then be logical to assume Price would drop by 50% of the move from Entry.
Price did not drop by 50% and instead began to form a new Triangle pattern.
Dropping to a lower time frame (4H) we can see the process begin to repeat itself.
Targets One and Two for the 4H Triangle are shown below.
Risk-To-Reward-Calculation with Key-Components.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hello Traders Investors And Community.
Welcome to this educational idea about the risk-reward-calculation in position trading with the 5-Key-Components determined. Today's markets constantly
changing and adapting and in such environments, we need to stick to a systematic trading approach to have the long term goals realized and do not fall
apart of market-making and smart money operators, when considering position-trading there are some important steps in acquiring the long-term-success
we should take apart when calculating the right risk in comparison to our capital and other key-steps to measure what trading is the best for ones
individual trading-system to achieve the aims we desire.
Therefore I contributed the 5-Key-Components inevitable to measure one's risk-to-reward in the market and best applied in a functional trading-system.
1.) The 5 Key Position-Trading Rules
2.) Acknowledging Risk Aversion
3.) Risk-To-Reward-Calculation
4.) Risk-Reward-Ratio vs. Winrate
5.) Possibilities of Success and Ruin
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
1.) The 5 Key Position-Trading Rules
1. First Rule: Do not hold the position longer than necessary:
It is important to choose a trading-system which has good entry timing and the right opportunities to exit therefore it is the best to be in the market when
volatility increases and takes profit at the important levels to not hold the position unnecessarily longer.
2. Second Rule: Aim to make as much as possible by risking as little as possible:
When trading we should advance by making the most of what we have at hand, today's markets offer options with leveraged trading which can work also
with smaller percentages of the deposit at hand, in this case, the leverage should be calculated right.
3. Third Rule: Only risk a small amount of capital on any trade executed:
It is commonly under beginner traders to risk a high percentage of the total deposit, this is a fatal mistake as the risk grows exponentially, to achieve security
of the deposit in the long-run, the maximum risk per trade should not be more than 10% from the deposit, best is 0.5-2%.
4. Fourth Rule: Don't come to the situation to meet margin calls:
This means you should avoid being marginally called on any occasions, when this happens there is evidence that the trade was too risky and the stop-loss
better be placed before the margin call, when it happens, it should be a time to review your trading-system.
5. Determine the maximum drawdown for every trade in advance
Before every trade you should measure how your position size with the stop-loss will possibly take a drawdown in the deposit. When the risk is too high
then the smaller position should be preferred, when it is still too risky than a bigger account will be a good option.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2.) Acknowledging Risk Aversion
This is a very important step in determining ones individual trading-systems, as traders act differently to circumstances some traders are risk-averse and
others are risk-seeking, this means how the trader is reacting to risk and how much the individual would risk receiving a return.
In the graph, you can see that the lesser your capital is the higher your risk-seeking, you are more ready to risk something averagely when your capital
is lower, this diminishes the higher your capital is, there are different risk preferences reaching from extreme risk averter to extreme risk seeker.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
3.) Risk-To-Reward-Calculation
In the big table in my chart you can see the risk-to-reward calculation and the values in it, the first value is the risk meaning how much you want to risk
in the particular trade coming to the second value, the return is what you get in return on your trade.
For example, you want to buy bitcoin at 15000 and have set the target at 15010, by the technical analysis you have determine a stop-loss at 14500, this will
be a highly risky trade as you are risking to lose 500 points comparison to 10 points.
The best trades are in the green section on the table beginning with trades where you gain 2 and risk 1, these trades should be the aim and preferred,
the breakeven ratio determines how much trades need to go in breakeven to be long-time profitable.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
4.) Risk-Reward-Ratio vs. Winrate
This rate is showing you how your trading develops by time, when you have a good winrate this means you are closing many of your positions in a profit
on the other side when this winrate is low you closing too many positions in a loss and often be unprofitable in the long-run.
What determines an excellent trader now as it is marked in the chart is when the average risk-reward ratio is high and the winrate also, this means you close
many of your positions in a profit and also with the proper risk-reward-ratio.
On the middle of the chart is the threshold determining low and high, you can also be profitable when your risk-reward is high and your win rate low or in
reverse, what should definitely be avoided is when both the winrate and ratio are lows this means you have to adapt your trading-system for sure.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
5. Determine the maximum drawdown for every trade in advance
This is a simple but very effective and important graphic showing the likelihood traders have for a point of ruin and how much the risk of ruin in
comparison to it is, meaning when your deposit is at a level on which there is no longer possibility to continue.
This graphic shows that when your capital is more your risk of losing it diminishes, on the other side when it is low the possibility for losses is more as
the capital is not big to stand the losses, this is a groundstone knowledge in determining the trading-system together with risk.
The graphic shows that the higher your deposit is the better you can take the risks in comparison and the lower it is the higher is the risk of losing more,
this is why it is important to combine the risk together with a solid portfolio.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Alright, these where the 5 key-components to determine risk in markets accordingly, traders should always look for the individual situation and where the
journeys should lead, therefore it is important to determine the risks in comparison to rewards which I bundled into the 5 Key-components necessary
determining the risk-management in ones trading-system, these components can be combined applied, or single integrated into ones trading-system.

a beautiful trading structures.1H trend line broken after H&S and touched the main horizontal resistance and that is weekly pivot too. Now making 1H bullish flag, 0.5% ret. might be seen and then move up to the area 1.161% that is there 4H trend line as well as weekly resistance. that weekly resistance area will decide further move of the gold. ECB ahead, may be we will see strong response.
The Butterfly Pattern, Tutorial (Basic)The Butterfly pattern, is a harmonic pattern discovered by Bryce Gilmore using his Wave trader software program.
The pattern structure was further refined using specific Fibonacci levels by Scott Carney which he outlined in his book 'The Harmonic Trader', published in 1998.
The Butterfly pattern must include an AB=CD pattern to be a valid signal. In general, the AB=CD Pattern will possess an extended CD leg that is 127.2% or 161.8% of the AB leg.
The difference - Double Top & Head and ShouldersHello my friend | Welcome Back.
Please support this idea with LIKE if you find it useful.
***
What Is Double Top and Bottom?
Double top and bottom patterns are chart patterns that occur when the underlying investment moves in a similar pattern to the letter "W" (double bottom) or "M" (double top). Double top and bottom analysis is used in technical analysis to explain movements in a security or other investment, and can be used as part of a trading strategy to exploit recurring patterns.
$$$
What Is a Head And Shoulders Pattern?
A head and shoulders pattern is a chart formation that appears as a baseline with three peaks, the outside two are close in height and the middle is highest. In technical analysis, a head and shoulders pattern describes a specific chart formation that predicts a bullish-to-bearish trend reversal. The head and shoulders pattern is believed to be one of the most reliable trend reversal patterns. It is one of several top patterns that signal, with varying degrees of accuracy, that an upward trend is nearing its end.
Risk management in trading €$¥Hello my friend | Welcome Back.
Please support this idea with LIKE if you find it useful.
***
What is market risk?
Market risk is the capacity for your trades to result in losses due to unfavourable price movements that affect the market as a whole. There are several factors that can cause market risk, but movement in any of the following can exert major pressure:
Stock prices
Interest rates
Foreign exchange rates
Commodity prices
What is liquidity risk?
Liquidity risk is the possibility that you may be forced to trade an asset at a worse price than you anticipated. For example, when trying to sell an illiquid stock you may struggle to find a buyer, meaning that you have to sell your stock for less than its current market value.
In some markets, liquidity risk can even mean that your trade negatively affects the price of the asset you are buying or selling. This is generally more of an issue in emerging or low-volume markets, where there may not be enough people in the market to trade with.
How to manage your risk
Risk management is the process of identifying, analysing and reducing risk in your trading decisions. Usually, it involves developing a trading plan that helps you decide what to trade, when to trade and where to place your stop losses. Here are three tips on how to manage risk:
1. Assess risk vs return
In general, trading strategies focus on weighing up a trade’s potential risk against its potential return. If a trade has greater risk, it should carry the chance of a greater return to make that risk worthwhile.
For example, government bonds are considered a safe, low-risk investment – but when compared to corporate bonds, they offer lower rates of return. This is because the risk of investing in a corporate bond is higher, so to compensate for the added risk investors are offered a higher rate of return.
2. Understand each market’s risks
It’s important to ensure you understand the factors that influence different markets, so you can base your dealing strategies on relevant information. Improve your success rate by learning more about the markets you’re dealing on and exploring new strategies.
Our trading skills section is a great place to learn about all the markets we offer.
3. Keep learning
Learning to trade successfully while managing your risk is a continual process – and one of the best ways of ensuring that you are always improving is by starting a trading diary. By keeping track of which trades and strategies have worked in the past, you can build on your successes and learn from your failures.
Head and shoulders typesHello my friend | Welcome Back.

The head and shoulders chart pattern is a popular and easy to spot pattern in technical analysis that shows a baseline with three peaks, the middle peak being the highest. The head and shoulders chart depicts a bullish-to-bearish trend reversal and signals that an upward trend is nearing its end.
The pattern appears on all time frames and can, therefore, be used by all types of traders and investors. Entry levels, stop levels and price targets make the formation easy to implement, as the chart pattern provides important and easy to see levels.
