Semiconductors in Focus: Top or Not?NASDAQ:NVDA has shifted sideways since the huge earnings breakaway gap, a pattern that tends to provide strong support for profit-taking. Unlike NASDAQ:AMD , the trend doesn't appear to be at risk of shifting into a downtrend at this time. While there has been some negative news pertaining to China for NVidia, the chart patterns don't indicate any concern from the largest Buy Side Institutions yet. NVDA reports again near the end of August. By the end of this month, the big Buy Sides will have made adjustments to their holdings depending on their expectations for earnings, a time to watch for any shift in the technical patterns. AMD reports early August. This short-term M top is at risk of testing support level highs below.

Master Pattern Trading Strategy | Smart Money Concepts💰10000LADYSUSDT | LONG TRADE #1 - H8 FLAT BACK BULLISH HEIKIN ASHI ( At the Sweet Spot ) MONTHLY / DAILY / H12 / H8 / H4 BULLISH - UPTREND - Long bias #2 - Jumped onto the LTF M5 CHART and entered my LONG when price was below the value line in combination with the TDI shark fin entry. If price is confirmed on a bullish uptrend on the Higher time frame, then we mark out master pattern on our entry charts, and look to take counter trend entries, when price is below the value line for long entries. These are the best entries to catch the wave of the trend with the lowest drawdown. #3 - You can exit your trades at value lines or liquidity lines. Contraction boxes are formed when price squeezes and forms a simultaneous lower high and higher low, this shows that the supply and demand is equalizing. When price breaks out the box this forms the expansion phase, which is shows incoming volatility is entering back into the market. When price enters into the expansion phase we can look for trade the range of the 2nd phase and let it carry us into the trend when it moved into the 3rd phase of the market.

How To Trade Like The InstitutionsI wanted to prove that you can genuenly use some good trading concepts to catch trades in the market. The market is chaotic, but it's not totally random. It's an efficient market that tries to price everything as well as possible! I used the Volume Profile from the session before the pump to find out value area (where there is most liquidity). Furthermore I found a Low Volume Node. This is a place where there is little liquidity, I know that price will shoot through this level to the next level of liquidity! I furthermore detected some bearish Order Blocks to aim for as I am looking for longs. The reason you would be looking for longs, is because that price was trading above the 4H value line (center of contraction). This is typically a higher low, followed by a lower high (or vice versa). Another important aspect is to go to a lower timeframe, where you can react faster to changes in momentum. Here I used the 15m timeframe to draw more value lines. Whenever price is below a value line for the smaller timeframe, but above the one for the higher timeframe, we wait for momentum to give us a long. The changes in momentum for longs are marked in the circles. By doing this, you can accumulate a lot of good setups. Your targets are typically the high levels of liquidity of the volume profile, the value area and the bearish orderblocks. Make sure to also look for imbalances, I have linked a previous setup where this was done.
