Uptrend or Fadeout? Learn the Key to Catching Market Breakouts1. Recognizing Market Structures: Uptrends and Downtrends Higher Highs (HH) and Higher Lows (HL): These are signs the market is in an uptrend—prices keep moving up, forming new highs (peaks) and lows (dips) that are higher than the previous ones. Think of it like climbing stairs: each step higher shows the market’s strength. Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL): When prices stop climbing and start forming lower peaks and lower dips, it signals that the market might be slowing down or reversing into a downtrend. In the chart: The first part shows a bullish (upward) move with Higher Highs and Higher Lows. Later, the market shifts to lower highs, signaling a potential slowdown or shift toward a downward move. 2. What Is the LQZ (Liquidity Zone)? Liquidity Zone (LQZ): This is a key price area where a lot of trading activity happens—like a hotspot where buyers and sellers clash. When price reaches such a zone, it either breaks through and keeps moving in that direction (bullish continuation) or bounces back down (rejection). Think of it like a soccer goal line: if the ball crosses the line, the team scores a goal (bullish move); if it’s blocked, the ball goes the other way (bearish move). In the chart: The LQZ is highlighted as the key level to watch. A clean breakout (with more than just a quick spike or wick) signals that buyers are strong enough to push the market higher. If the price gets rejected at this zone, the sellers regain control, and the market might move down. 3. Scenarios: What Happens Next? The chart offers two possible outcomes based on how price behaves near the LQZ. Bullish Scenario: If the price breaks above the LQZ and stays there, it’s likely to continue upward towards: Target 1: 2,661.38 Target 2: 2,673.60 These are the next levels where buyers might take profits or where new sellers could appear. Bearish Scenario: If the price gets rejected at the LQZ and drops lower, it could move towards: Bearish Target 1: 2,569.49 Bearish Target 2: 2,546.25 This suggests the sellers have taken control, pushing the market down. 4. How to Know When to Enter a Trade? The chart highlights the importance of waiting for confirmation before jumping into a trade. Here’s a simple trade plan: For a Buy (Long) Trade: Wait until the price breaks above the LQZ and stays above it. Enter on the first pullback (dip) after the breakout—this is often called a flag or retest. For a Sell (Short) Trade: If the price gets rejected at the LQZ, wait for a clear downward movement. Enter after the first lower high forms, confirming that the sellers are in control. Why wait for confirmation? Jumping in too early might cause you to get caught in a false breakout or fake move. Think of it like waiting to see which team scores first before betting on the game. 5. Avoid Emotional Trading and Manage Risk This chart reflects a key lesson: trading is a game of patience and probabilities. If the trade doesn't go as expected, it’s important to step back and wait for the next opportunity. Don’t chase trades just because you fear missing out (FOMO). You might enter too soon and hit your stop loss unnecessarily. Risk Management Tip: Use stop losses to protect your account from big losses. Avoid placing multiple risky trades on the same pair just because you’re impatient. It’s better to wait for high-probability setups. 6. Summary: A Simple Trading Plan Watch the LQZ level: If the price breaks above, look to buy on the next dip. If the price gets rejected, look to sell when it starts forming lower highs. Set Clear Targets: For bullish trades, aim for Target 1 and 2 above. For bearish trades, aim for Bearish Targets 1 and 2 below. Don’t Rush: Wait for clear confirmation before entering. Follow your trading plan and avoid emotional decisions.

Update on teslaHi, quick update. i do want to update some bearish technical scenerios that align with liquidity concepts. (neither bullish or bearish idea is 100% to occur and its important to prepare to all scenerios) The latest test on demand was not what i was hoping to see. with prices making bad lows (confirm on TPO) and creating a liquidity pool, showing a lack of strength (market moves on the path of least resistance) from buyers(volume is low market shows uncertainty around current price). We have a gap down (green rectangle) and bad lows, the last imbalances on the chart at 199.48 (if we dont consider the aug 5 bad lows duo to the japanese sell off) These will hit stop losses and reset highly leveraged positions and most importantly will provide wallstreet a premium price on tsla shares. That price aligns with targets from both bearish and bullish sides. as of now we are holding the daily 100 ema the 200 EMA is 201 and the yearly VWAP is also confluencing with that EMA. SHOCKING! If we are at the parliamentary supply a selling climax will follow.. and the target for it would close the imbalance and the gap would provide us a good low to buy from and grab upside liquidity if not break resistance finally. in terms of RSI a sell off to that area will give us an oversold RSI on the daily and hit the orderblocks down there! I am still bullish on tesla but acknowledging these bearish scenerios will help up understand what is happening if they happening. I closed my CFD position in tiny profit but i am still keeping my value investment on and havent sold a bit. I will happily go further down and give myself a nice CFD trade on tesla from these price targets.! This is not a financial advice but simply me sharing my ideas and journaling my investments and trading. I hope you all have a great day I AM STILL BULLISH THERES A REASON WHY THEY ARE CALLED SHORTS (SHORT TERM) AND LONGS (LONG TERM)

Pure Price Action Top Down Analysis of EURUSD2023 saw EU create a bullish opening range in H1, and H2 2023 opened only to raid stop orders from early trading that year before expanding to the upside. This PA created a bullish range which was retraced to the demand zone left in the wake of that previous expansion in April 2024, leaving behind what I suppose should be the low of the year. The Fiber has since continued bullish but appears to be stalling now in order to gather further internal bullish liquidity (SSL) to garner enough momentum for the move towards the BSL from 2022. Anticipation here is to capitalize on the bullish continuation towards the liquidity above the current dealing range but we are also aware of internal levels price might bounce from before that reversal happens. As EU approaches the nearest demand, we anticipate it could find support there for a retracement of the recent selloff experienced which potentially can be a decent opportunity to go long momentarily. Ultimately, the lower demand zone below the SSL(1.071) is where we expect to see major longs come in. Feel free to leave comments, reviews and criticisms, we look forward to building a very strong community of price action wizards with you all. GLGT, LloydFx

Probabilities Powering BTCUSD TradesUtilizing probabilities based on historical data is a cornerstone of my bullish strategy for BTCUSD. Here’s why I believe this approach is not only effective but essential for positioning long trades successfully. Understanding the Importance of Probabilities Probabilities in Trading Trading is inherently uncertain, and relying on probabilities allows traders to make informed decisions rather than guesses. By analyzing historical price movements and patterns, we can identify trends that have previously led to upward or downward movements. This statistical approach helps mitigate risks associated with emotional decision-making. Historical Data as a Guide Historical data provides a wealth of information about how BTCUSD has reacted under various market conditions. By employing a mechanical trading strategy that incorporates these indicators, I can increase my chances of entering profitable trades. Mechanical Trading Strategy What is a Mechanical Trading Strategy? A mechanical trading strategy is a systematic approach that uses predefined rules based on historical data to make trading decisions. This method eliminates emotional bias and ensures consistency in trade execution. Benefits of a Mechanical Approach 1. Consistency: Adhering to a mechanical strategy means that trades are executed based on data rather than emotions. 2. Backtesting: Historical data allows for backtesting strategies to see how they would have performed in the past, providing confidence in their potential effectiveness. 3. Risk Management: By employing probabilities, I can better manage risk through calculated position sizing and stop-loss orders. Current Market Context In the current market environment, BTCUSD shows signs of bullish momentum. The formation of higher lows indicates strength, and historical patterns suggest that we may be at the beginning of another significant upward trend. By leveraging probabilities derived from past performance, I am positioning myself to capitalize on this potential movement. Conclusion In summary, utilizing probabilities based on historical data through a mechanical trading strategy equips me with a robust framework for entering long positions in BTCUSD. This approach not only enhances my decision-making process but also aligns with my overall bullish bias. As we navigate the complexities of the crypto market, relying on data-driven strategies will be crucial for achieving success in our trades. 1D: 6H:

Crude Oil (CL1!): Why We’re Still Expecting Lower LowsAt the end of last week, we fine-tuned our Crude Oil outlook, and we are still expecting lower lows to take out the sell-side liquidity below. Our limit order at $63.23 remains valid, even after last week’s pump, which was driven primarily by rising tensions and the ongoing war in the Middle East. Oil gained 13% over five sessions following Iran’s attack, as traders feared Israel’s response might target Iran’s oil infrastructure, potentially cutting into the country’s 1.7 million barrels per day of exports. There are also concerns that a broader war in the oil-rich Persian Gulf could threaten nearly a third of global oil output. However, the geopolitical risk premium may be fading due to Israel’s delayed response. The geopolitical risk premium has an unclear and unpredictable expiration. When that moment comes and is not supported by real, fundamental factors—such as a substantial supply shortage due to the conflict—the upward movement in oil prices will not be sustainable. The longer this takes, the more the price increase will slow and potentially reverse, which is exactly what we are starting to see in the chart. While Crude Oil respected the 61.8% Fibonacci level almost perfectly, it found stronger resistance at the POC just above that level. Given the bearish RSI divergence, we continue to expect Oil to move lower, provided the conflict in the Middle East does not escalate further.

payo are you gonna correct?after the great boom payo brought us some great profits. tbh i havent closed anything and i am still bullish on payo. payo accumulation and bingbongdingdong has been formed for 3 years as of this moment we are attempting to turn previous critical resistance into support. 2 scenerios according to wykoff theory. 1. correction then big money needs to defend its positions and at a reasonable price. fundementally that could be previous value area high (vah upper white line) because we need to create a new value range it would only make sense to turn vah to the new point of control (poc) or the new value area low (where price is traded the most e.g mid range val bottom area) another point to consider for the correction is the gap, so previous point of control to turn value area low or a sweep to that level would provide 4 things first it will close the gap and get rid of that imbalance. 2nd it will shake off weak hands and get rid of breakout traders when it grabs the single print 3rd it will provide a decent price for big money to enter at.. liquidity liquidity liqduidity. 4th provide the oprotunity for hedge shorting and basically thats more fuel to the upside when said shorts close. (so basically proffesionals get paid to pump the market for free) 2. leave everyone behind everyone whos waiting for the correction. that scenerio is less likely to anticipate, depends more on the company preformance and has less upside for big money that wants to accumulate low and provide big gains. i believe the first scenerio is more likely that the other one. the teal circles on the green lines are where i am looking to see reactions for swing fail patterns and adding to my positions luckily i already have an open position on payo for quite a while now, so im chilling.

im still bullishlast daily deviated from my trendline. to me that could be a swing fail and a shakeout to shake weak hands. reasons to consider: there is CPI data today and on 10/10 theres the tesla robot event a big fail could prove to be a priced in scenerio and the start of the nuke today with the following nuke tomorrow. for me i am a big believer of tesla so im bullish for me i may have another buy oprotunity on the vola vola today. as for the pattern in question we have a 48% on the cup depth 32% on the handle depth 44% on the parallel channel that is still part of the handle.. make of it what you will. i dont believe tesla will break out before the 10/10 but will swingfail the down level even (especially) on bullish cpi data (if anyone knows how hedge funds like to operate). there are bad lows at our current level and at 226 (which is also previous resistance) a sweep would be an amazing bullish retest that may or may not fail but the oprotunity is there and it all depends on how aggressive you'd like to trade or invest. Trendlines are current value ranges The upper teal drawings are potential double top that has formed and if we reject a potential double bottom (rsi will print an rsi div on 30 mins and may potentially swing up to the upper part of the channel causing an overbought on 4hours and daily) Vwap will confluence with the 100 daily ema that could potentially be a good entry but there's also the potential of the 150 and 200 bullish retest even though in my opinion that would ruin the cup and handle entirely although the liquidity idea would stay the same i'd be sad to see the pattern go. if we dont swing fail the bullish retest i will look to swing fail the lower trendline for another liquidity pool grab which is also the yearly value area poc. if all fails and we go bearish on tesla i will trade the consolation prize from valow to vahigh (a lower high and on the higher timeframe and a full rotation play) the bullish idea is if tesla preforms and the vah turns into the new poc/val and said new value range would be between current to 400-500 i hope i made enough sense and that my ideas are interesting for you. good luck to everyone.

Fundamentals Favoring a Bullish USDJPY:What Traders Need to KnowIn today's trading environment, the USD/JPY currency pair presents a bullish opportunity. Here are some key fundamentals that support this bias, along with an explanation of utilizing probabilities for positioning long trades. Key Fundamentals Supporting a Bullish Bias on USD/JPY 1. Bank of Japan's (BoJ) Monetary Policy: The BoJ has maintained its accommodative monetary policy, refraining from committing to predefined rate hikes for the remainder of the year. This stance is likely to weaken the Japanese Yen against the U.S. Dollar as traders anticipate continued divergence in monetary policy between the Fed and the BoJ. 2. U.S. Economic Growth: Recent data indicates a pickup in U.S. economic growth without significant inflationary pressures. This environment supports a stronger U.S. Dollar as it suggests that the Federal Reserve may not need to cut rates aggressively, contrary to some market expectations. 3. Market Sentiment: The overall sentiment in the forex market is leaning towards a bullish outlook for the U.S. Dollar, particularly against currencies like the Yen, which is under pressure due to Japan's economic conditions and the BoJ's policies. Utilizing Probabilities for Long Positions in USD/JPY When trading, I prioritize using probabilities to enhance my decision-making process. In conclusion, by focusing on probabilities and key fundamental indicators, I am strategically positioning myself for potential long trades in USD/JPY. This method not only enhances my trading confidence but also provides a structured approach to navigating market volatility effectively.

GBPJPY Buy analysisGJ created a demand OB at approximately 190.300. After that we had a push towards the upside reaching app. 193.00. As price went down, a potential supply OB was created which would be our target due to the confluence of equal highs created right under it. Price pushed further mitigating the 190.300 OB and created a new one once it reacted off of it (This was our entry DOB). Right before the asian session an area of sell-side liquidity was created and our asian session created highs and lows which also acted as liquidity. Right after the asian session, price swept the Asia low liquidity as well as the sell-side liquidity and tapped into the second DOB, This is where we entered. The target was simply imbalance that was made by the push towards the DOB, then the Asia high liquidity and finally the equal high liquidity. Trade went to TP and went even further, pushing through the Supply OB which was our TP.
