Horizontal
Why Diagonal Trend Lines Are DangerousHorizontals > Diagonals, but good to use together to help support your thesis of a trend reversal.
Diagonal and horizontal S/R break is strong but if only using one, use Horizontals.
See this chart as an example as to why Diagonal breaks can fail you...
If you bought the breakout at the close above diagonal, where do you put your stop? below the trend line? Well, you can see that it would have been 23% loss before a close below diagonal. Where as it would have only been a 3.5% loss if you entered and exited the horizontal break.

Top 10 trading tips:
1. DO NOT FOMO into PUMPs.
2. Set a strategy and be consistent. The more you use the same strategy with the same $$$ amounts, you will be able to identify the winning set ups quicker and you will need to win less trades to be profitable over time.
3. Let your winners run and cut your losers short.
4. You will not win every trade, but if you are disciplined with great RM you don't need to be right all the time to win!
5. Before you enter a trade, make you know your target (or take profit target and let the rest ride) AND your exit strategy.
6. When you are up, you can use a trailing stop or trim off some profit at a logical resistance point with a stop loss at breakeven.
7. It is hard to deal with emotions when trading, set parameters up front so you keep your self accountable. (stop loss, take profit levels, etc)
8. Don't fight the trend. The trend is your friend.
9. Use multiple indicators to confirm your TA on price action.
10. Only trade what you are willing to lose. It will be hard to trade without emotions.

Bitcoin (BTC) Long-term & Mid-term AnalysisBitcoin (BTC) Long-term & Mid-term Analysis
As you can see Bitcoin tested Weekly support and EMA21 and so far a not-so-good bounce. still, the Weekly trend is not bearish.
However Daily is starting to change of behavior because when BTC corrected from $58k to $50k, open interest rose up.
On a weekly basis, if $45k breaks, the $38k ~ $32k range test would be highly probable.
But until then Bitcoin could create a very boring range now and just frustrate people.
CRSP - Ripe for ReboundLooks like Nasdaq is done correcting and looking up now as many stocks have corrected far enough and hit major supports.
One example here is CRSP. It had formed a head & shoulders earlier which followed thru all the way to hit just $2 shy of its H&S target at 98 on 5 March. Bounced and then retested close to this support zone (which comprised both the H&S target and the 61.8% fib retracement of it's entire AB swing up).
Time to accumuate. with initial stop loss slight below it's recent swing low 106. Trail profits up.
