Eurusd Pulls up to end the week 📺The Weekly candle has flipped bullish with NFP data as I outlined as a possible scenario in yesterday's publishing and appears to be now headed towards 1.096 Daily resistance zone( Also the other side of the daily range). We are currently above 1.091 daily resistance zone and closed at this level with the 4hr candle. The 4hr candle closed quite strongly bullish. We have done a retest at our previous 4h resistance zone(1.09) which has just acted as a support level 40 minutes ago. We are seeing a bullish push to end off the week here and I think it may continue towards 1.0936 and 1.096 Daily resistance zone. We are consistently holing above 1.091 daily resistance zone and the 4hr close has given us confirmation that we may continue up. We have now gotten 2 1hr candles and 1 4hr candle close above 1.091 daily resistance zone. It may act as a support now after we have recieved candle closure confirmation on the 1hr/4hr timeframes. I was originally looking for sell positions on Eurusd with NFP. Instead we saw that —> 1) I Identified that NFP data was expected to decrease overall from the prior period ( Not a positive for USD) 2) The data was worse than what was forecasted by analysts' ( Not good for USD) 3) Price printed a strong daily candle closure back inside our daily timeframe range with yesterday's daily candle. Our daily timeframe range being between 1.085-6 Daily Support and 1.096 Daily Resistance 1 Trade today. Buy Stops with NFP Explanation : So price created a Daily resistance zone on Monday. On Tuesday it respected the daily resistance zone and moved down accordingly. I placed my buy stop position above this high of Tuesday's price. One position closed for +8 Pips, Other position closed for +9.3 Pips 💰. My target was the next 1hr resistance zone as we noted in yesterday's publishing at 1.0936. I secured partial positions and extend my Take Profit to 8-10 Pips during news trading and Lowered my position size accordingly. Data

Thursday Daily Candle Incoming 🤯--> Continuation ( 6 minutes video 😎 ) As We approach the end of the week, We may observe alot of momentum! My mentors always told me that the market is setting up early in the week. The avalanche later in the week will provide plenty of opportunity for the disciplined trader to implement a trading system. Price was at 1.08892 during our last publishing 24 hours ago. Price consolidated during Asian and London Sessions before gaining enough liquidity to see a breakout to the downside. Price is currently headed towards 1.08384 where we may see a bounce as we head into london session. If not then price is headed towards 1.081 4hr support zone as our next bearish target. Price has confirmed a breakout to the downside and I'm anticipating a pullback before my sells. If not then I anticpate a pullback with our 4 news releases tomorrow durng new york session. We could see all three sessions be bearish and it s thursday so I wouldn't be surprises. Must keep this in mind and plan for every scenario. I've outlined that good pullback prices look to me to be arouns 1.08628-1.0875 I've already met my weekly goal of 2% and I am quite a happy camper. 2 Weeks ago I recall I was up about 2.5% (.5% more than my goal) and I trade on a friday where I proceeded to give back 1/3 of my profits on the week. What a sour taste it left in my mouth to end off the week! Don't want to do that again so I will be publishing ideas and content for my channels to end off the week.

Momentum gaining traction after Monthly Close 🚀The final week of June was spent consolidating as some Buyers took profit and Short Sellers have attempted to force price down. After the Monthly candle closed on Saturday, we can see it as the beginning for a new ascent. Since then price has climbed 2.35% at the time of writing and reached a high of 3%. Weekly timeframe : There is no Supply AKA Resistance level on the weekly timeframe up to $47K. As long as the Weekly timeframe holds above $30,328 Weekly Support Level, we can look for higher prices. Daily timeframe : Our remaining pit stops for a bullish ascent will be a fight to close above $31,352 Daily resistance and $31,787 Daily resistance. After that there will likely be liquidity above structural wick highs at $32,373. I would not be surprised if BTC wanted a retest at $30,715 Daily S/R Zone once more before a further ascent. It used this price level as a resistance for the entirety of last week and it will likley act as a support moving forward.

Bitcoin is Consolidating Upwards ₿Bitcoin is slowly probing into higher prices testing short liquidity and accumulating orders in view. After a 25% pump last week or 2 weeks ago whenever I would've liked to see Sellers take over already. Instead these " High prices" maintain and price sustains itself. Price is creating Higher Lows and is what should be anticipated in an increasing market. My thoughts are that we may see an increase in BTC early in the month here and a consequential pullback later in the month. The Level's I've drawn up will be the most relevant throughout the first half of this month.

We can observe a clear Higher high in market structure that formed pushing price up to $1,976. We have clean traffic (clean and clear candles) to the left hand side on the 4hr and Daily timeframe up to $1,995. Textbook break and retest for Ethereum here for a continuation higher. Price is retesting our previous 4hr resistance which may turn into support.. It's possible price may want to retrace a bit more to $1,924 Daily support level that was formed after Sunday's price action. 4Hr Chart -> Daily Chart ->

[ PMI ] Red Folder News Scenario's 🔥/ Eurusd For PMI data I'm favoring a continued push up throughout NY Session. If this does not happen then i anticipate the volatility to create the High of the day then slowly faded off the highs back to support at 1.08743. It is Monday and the market is setting up for the rest of the week so beware of that. On My last publishing I detail a potential fakeout on the Daily timeframe after the Friday candle Closed back inside the range last week above 1.0892 which is now our weekly support level. I'm looking for price to return to 1.096 daily resistance this week with the fakeout market structure. The Daily candle was bearish all day today and has only just recently flipped back bullish as we coincide with PMI data in 7 minutes. I took a buy and just TP with majoirty of my position., holding on to some during news with SL at B.E. Update : Price shot into profit and my runner position I took Profit at +25 Pips

Break and Retest @ $1,909 Weekly Level 📈Ethereum created a Higher High on the Daily Timeframe after the daily candle closed at $1,933 on Friday. Additionally, Eth closed up 3.15% on the Month and this suggests a further increase for July. More aggressive positioning for an increase in the month of July would be the anticipation that Ethereum closes above $1,909 Weekly supply level. Trade Idea : It uses what once was a Supply/Resistance level as a new Support/Demand level. This would translate into a swift break and retest trade above $1,909 and looking for new high prices to formulate as the new monhtly and weekly candle's kick off. We have 1) Monthly candle just closed bullish 2) After 1 week of testing $1,909 Weekly Supply level, price has done a fair job of sticking right at it, current price $1,913 3) After all the crazy news, price remains at the medium term highs after a 16% pump across the past 2.5 weeks. A Look at the Daily Chart, Created a Higher High and we may now use $1909 to do a break and retest to head towards $1,995

Fake-Breakout coming out of last week ↗️ 🌞PCE news last Friday took price back inside the range between 1.08919 Weekly Support level and 1.09859 Daily Resistance Level. The Friday daily candle retraced nearly the whole Thursday candle that contained GDP and unemployment claims data. I'm looking for this price behavior to continue into the early trading of this new week. The Idea is that we should have continued down last friday towards 1.07821 Daily S/R Zone. We didn't and instead we Eurusd has spring itself back in the range. A Fake breakout or Fakeout. I can see us returning to the top of the range basically. The Monthly candle closed Bullish for June. Looking for the same during July with the first target for July being 1.11. The second target being 1.11853. Price has been consolidating so far this year on eurusd. However, the market structure is consolidating upwards. The 3 month candle jsut closed a 3rd consecutive bullish candle. Why not more bullish?

27.5$ Top Wick and 25$ Candle Body 🫣 -> Rejection of HighsEthereum is Creating Lowr Lows and Lower Highs as it descends away from our Weekly Supply level $1,915. Price ran into th Weekly Supply level last wednesday and ever since then we have been unable to identify a push to create a Higher high on the Intraday timeframes. Instead price is retracing and it appears to be stepping down stairs in a calculated fashion. As the Monthly candle comes to a close price, we will be able to identify a bearish candle if price closes below $1,873. Price would have to increase +1.6% from the current price to end Break even on the month. If the Monthly candle closes bearish then Bears have established a Resistance. We may then anticipate further downside to fill at least part of the previous monthly candle's bottom wick with momentum carried over. This is the idea behind this Short publishing. First TP $1,828 Daily Support Level 2nd TP $1,800 Psychological Level 3rd TP $1,723$ Weekly Support Level Monthly timeframe Outlook : Idea is that we will go to fill at least part of this month's bottom wick with momentum carried over to the next monthly candle

Eurusd ; more downside squeeze? 💀The Monthly candle has been pulling back from monthly resistance at 1.10255 since intitially tapping into it last Thursday. The Weekly candle is bearish and is rejecting weekly resistance zone 1.094. The Daily timeframe has confirmed a bearish breakout to the downside since it recently closed below Daily support level 1.0891. This Daily support level has now tunred into a Daily S/R Zone and may act as a resistance area for more downside potential. As stated on Tuesday's publishing " Momentum from Last week , Eurusd whats cooking? " I mentioned this statement --> "Downside target for week is 1.081 4Hr Support zone" . This would be 51 pip drop from the current daily candle and similar to the 49 pips drop that we saw today with GDP and unemployment claims data. Tomorrow we have Core PCE data. Now A few things could happen. 1) We move up prior to news then drop with news 2) We move down to our weekly target 1.081 before news and then shoot up with news 3) We consolidate, then increase back into the Daily range between 1.0891 Support and 1.096 Resistance with bad USD PCE data tomorrow. ** Also we must be aware that the monhtly candle is coming to a close. This could cause some very irrational volatility. It's the end of the week as well. It could be a freaky friday. I'm lowering size and wider SL. I may not even trade we'll see.

Momentum from last week ↘️ // Eurusd what's cooking? 👨‍🍳We have a fair share of news events this week to shake things up. These news events will be a catlayst for a coniuation of momentum or the cause for a reversal in the short term here. Now the Monthly candle is closing at the end of this week and we must keep in mind that it is closing bullish. I don't anticipate this weekly candle to drop 222 pips but it's not impossible. The Weekly candle from last week closed bearish rejecting Daily Resistance Zone 1.098 and Weekly resistance zone 1.1024. The top wick rejection was larger than the body of the candle denoting a good amount of sell pressure on Eurusd. The Friday daily candle closed bearish taking out all the lows from earlier in the week. Ideally for this week we would like to see the previous weekly candle's bottom wick (Approximately 48 pips ) be filled with momentum carried over from the prior week. 1.09160 is a Daily and 4hr S/R Level and may act as an area for price to distribute and take us to lower prices. If price gets a close above there we have clean traffic back up to 1.09564 4hr resistance zone. Otherwise if price can get a solid candle close below 1.08845 4hr Support zone then we have a nice 30 pip clean traffic range to decrease back to the low of last week at 1.0848 4hr Zone. Downside target for week is 1.081 4Hr Support zone If wrong, then expecting a range and possible eventual increase back to highs at 1.09875 Daily Resistance Zone.

Momentum Points South 🐻 We can observe the 4hr candle jsut closed below 1.0882 4Hr support Zone. Price also doesn't seem to care too much about our Daily support level 1.08915. Price retraced during London Session and gathered some liquidity while touching into weekly level 1.094 before coinciding with a drop with better than expected USD news. Also upon the 4hr candle close, it printed an engulfing candle and a siginficant top wick. All signs are screaming more downside to come. It may be after a deeper retrace to around 1.0882 and 1.08915 area but probabilities suggest lower prices to 1.0847 4hr support zone. This zone also happens to be the previous weekly candle bottom wick that we are now going to fill with momentum leftover from last week? we'll see if we get the push and fill the 33 pip range with clean traffic to the left down to 1.0847.

Ethereum Short at the Lows 🏴 (More Risky) / Momentum ↘️This Short Idea begins at a 1Hr Support Zone & let me explain my thoughts. The Idea for the trade stems from the fact that the Weekly candle is Bearish. Daily candle is bearish. 4Hr Market Structure is bearish and descending away from our Weekly Supply level at $1,915 ( Published in a previous idea). We are shorting the breakout to the downside in anticipation that the Daily candle will continue to pull down into the close of the candle in 5 Hours. We have clean candles to the left /clean traffic on the 1Hr timeframe down to $1,816. 2 Ways to approach this. 1) Short at the lows anticipating volume to come into the market as we transition into the new daily candle. 2) Wait for a pullback to what was our Daily support level and may now because a Resistance level at $1,860$.

💭 Daily Tf Key Level plays Important Role ( 1.0918 )This week 1.0918 Daily Support/Resistance Zone will likely play an important role in the direction of this week's price behavior. This was a Major Support during last week's price action may very well act as a resistance level for the new week's price action. The new weekly candle gapped up but at the end of New York trading we can observe a hold of 1.0918 Daily S/R Zone. We are currently in a tight range to begin the week between this mentioned level and the 4hr support zone 1.0886. If Sellers fail to hold below 1.09180 then entry upon break and retest above it with targets at 1.0958 4hr Zone and the previous week's high at daily resistance zone 1.0986. Otherwise with Sells here we may continue to anticpate momentum to return to the downside. Our weekly target for sells remains at 1.081. More Analysis : Started off the week taking Sells from our Daily S/R Zone 1.0918 . Earned +.5% on the account about after commissions. It turned out to be the high of the day. Being pro-active with your trading plays an important role in profitability. Trade where it is most uncomfortable and you will likely see your results improve.

Eurusd Shaking out Weak hands?Trading is not complicated once you have a good understanding of whatever your technical approach is to the markets. After that good understanding is achieved you will have reasonable expectations about where price can go and will rarely be surprised. However, trading can become difficult when you throw trading psychology in the mix. Positive trading psychology is the sum of your mindset, discipline, and patience. This is why it's the most fragile and significant portion of your bottom line. Listening to the great traders and reading about their stories it's often mentioned as the most important piece of the puzzle when it comes to long term & consistent returns. It requires inner reflection and a good amount of attention from time to time. I have run into one of these occasions as I have strayed from my bread and butter. I have nonetheless created a rule on my trading plan to save me from any future occasions.

A different way to identify momentum with MACD (BABA)Before coming up with this idea I asked myself the following question: is there a way to visualize whether sellers or buyers are in control during a certain move/period of stock price action? In order to achieve this, I decided to connect the moves with the associated changes on the MACD histogram bars and try to plot the "area's" on the Histogram bars as a form of "accumulative momentum". With BABA, it can be seen seen that a "change of character" has occurred since march of 2022 where for the first time the area above the 0 line between the histogram bars became larger than the area below it. Is this further evidence that the stock has been in accumulation mode ever since? Time will tell!

Olema Pharmaceuticals: Enjoy!Olema is currently developing a "cancer" drug that suppresses the body's production of Estrogen. Now this could be useful for breast cancer treatment but the real target audience, in my opinion, is hormone replacement therapy for gender transition. I don't necessarily endorse this kind of product but given the corporate and governmental policies surrounding the issue, I believe it could definitely be a very good financial opportunity. I charted this about a month ago and it has moved even more aggressively than I expected. This could be because this type of product, I imagine, would have to be developed under the current administration. Olema Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, which engages in the discovery and development of targeted therapies for women's cancers. It also focuses on developing therapies for the treatment of breast cancer. Olema Pharmaceuticals was founded by Cyrus L. Harmon and Peter J.

🪙📉 Gold: Double Top Breakdown - Get Ready for a Bearish Ride! Attention, traders! We have an enticing bearish setup in the Gold market on the daily timeframe. The key to this setup lies in the formation of the double top pattern, where price establishes two prominent peaks at approximately the same level. This pattern serves as a robust bearish reversal signal, indicating a potential downtrend ahead. As price stagnated below the neckline, which acted as a strong resistance, the bearish sentiment intensified. During this period of consolidation, a trend continuation triangle has taken shape. This triangle formation further reinforces the bearish bias, suggesting that the downtrend is likely to continue. As traders, we can leverage this setup and seek opportunities to profit from the downward movement. Looking at the indicators, the moving averages continue to show a bearish momentum. These averages not only act as resistance levels but also validate the bearish bias. The convergence of these factors further supports the bearish outlook, providing additional conviction for traders to consider entering a short position on Gold. With all these elements in place, it's time to seize the moment and enter a short position on Gold. The initial take profit level can be set around 1910, where we can secure partial profits and capitalize on the downward momentum. However, our ultimate target lies around the 1855 area, aiming to capture the potential continuation of the downtrend. As you navigate this trade, remember to take significant profits when approaching the target area, as it represents a crucial support zone. Please respect money management, dont place more than 2% on that trade also. Lets trade the trend ! happy trading !📉🪙 And don't forget to press the like button if you think this insight was helpful 🚀💪

Bullish Flag pattern 🏺Anticipating Eurusd Bulls to arrive sometime midweek during Powell's speeches. It's simply too difficult for me to not imagine some resurgence of bulls and Market optimism with risk-on buying back up to the 1.096 1Hr Zone Highs from the previous week. The Monthly candle has 11 days left in it and is now a solid bullish candle. I'm anticipating an upside push after a +1% Bullish weekly candle on Eurusd. It was a rather large weekly engulfing last week that was printed and the largest bullish close on said timeframe since the 2nd week of the year. As stated in the May 24th publishing and roughly 1 month ago, " Bull targets for the month of June are - a return to 1.1024 weekly level - a push towards 1.14655 Weekly level. " This remains as we have 9 trading day's remaining in June 23'. It is quite possible we may just range for some time before probing more towards the weekly level 1.1024. Must plan for Bullish and Bearish scenarios. Our most recent Daily S/R Zone stands at 1.0781. It is possible we may go back and test here but like this to be the least probable. Have a great trading week following the probabilities. Also cutting your losses short and letting your profits run. Bearish Target on Week 1.08146 Bullish Target on Week 1.10

News Speeches Stir the pot 🕊️// Eurusd We would like to see the Daily candle close above 1.0945 as this will confirm a breakout to the upside. The candle at that point will close above the daily resistance zone created by last friday's daily candle. The idea is that we have momentum leftover from last week and will see the curretn weekly candle push deeper into the Daily/Weekly zones above. Wild trading day for me but besides that Eurusd has seen a resurgence of bullish volume that we were anticipating after last weeks Weekly candle closure. We were anticipating a continuation of momentum this week and I mentnioned in my previous Eurusd publishing that we may pullback and conolisdate early in the week as the markets sets up. The market needs time to gather liquidity before it makes significant moves. It does that by causing alot of volatility and commotion in the short term in order to get traders on tilt and stir up the pot. Moving forward I'm looking towards a retest of the extreme 1Hr Zone 1.096 and eventually an increase to the next daily resistance level 1.0982 during the next london session.

Range until Upside on Thursday 📞Eurusd did quite a nice job of Holding 4hr support zone 1.09132. We are currently in a range with the resistance at 1.094. The Daily resistance level at 1.0945 held quite well during tuesday's London session. The NY session 4hr candle on Tuesday wicked beneath 4Hr support 1.09132 -> 15-18 some odd pips but closed back inside after buyers showed up and said not today. It is not odd to see the market pullback against the trend from the previous week on Monday/Tuesday as it has done here. The Size of the current " Bearish push" has been 1/8 the size of the Bullish push from the previous week. During the upcoming sessions I can observe a retest of 1.094 4Hr Resistance zone. We have 2 upcoming red folder speeches by Fed chair Jerome Powell which will impact USD strength. Unemployment claims on Thursday and Manufacturing data on Friday to wrap up the week. Unemployment data is supposed to be about flat from the prior week which I see as favorable for a continued ascent on Eurusd Weekly timeframe. Manufacturing data on Friday is forecasted to be mixed. Thinking we can give a good push back to the highs 1.096 1Hr Zone prior to red folder news on friday. The Market Moves Major pips on thursday's. This is because early on in the week the market is setting up. It's setting up for the trend move later on in the week. The Week Matures around Wednesday and Thursday. These are the days when it is especially a good idea to " Let your winners run" .

EURUSD to make its 4H higher highI believe the daily momentum for this pair is still bullish. The 4H retraced to the 38.2% fib and presented a Volume bullish engulfing on top of a trendline . While I do believe the Euro is getting weaker, one more higher high or bullish push would make perfect sense considering the fact that its beneath a major resistance and had been rejected there prior. Its approaching an untested breakout zone while these daily candles aren't very strong.

🐂📈 Seizing the Double Bottom: GBPUSD Bulls Ready to Charge! Our journey begins with the formation of a double bottom pattern, a powerful reversal pattern signaling a shift in market sentiment. Now, as price prepares to break the neckline, a prime opportunity arises to enter a long position with a tight stop loss. Keep a close watch for inside bar breakouts, where candlestick patterns offer a clear entry signal. Adding strength to this setup, the exponential moving averages (EMAs) are acting as solid support levels, with a potential crossover imminent. This convergence of technical indicators reinforces the security of our bullish thesis. But that's not all! Yesterday's bullish news on Sterling has further strengthened the probability of a bullish scenario. The release of the Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) revealed positive figures, indicating a robust economic performance for the UK. This positive development adds to the fundamental support for a potential rally in GBPUSD. Profit targets are a crucial aspect of any successful trade. In this case, I suggest taking partial profits when price reaches the neckline, located at 1.24500. This level holds significance and may introduce some resistance. However, our ultimate target aligns with the completion of a harmonic bat pattern, specifically point D, projected to be around 1.25200. Harmonic patterns offer valuable insights into potential price movements, enhancing the probability of a successful trade. Keeping an eye on the broader picture, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) further bolsters our bullish stance. Breaking above the 50 level and sustaining around this zone, the RSI indicates a continuation of the rally, supporting the case for an upward move. So, join the bullish ride and seize this exciting opportunity on GBPUSD! Dont forget to press the like button if you think this insight was helpful 🐂📈💪
