Overbought

HOW TO TRADE ETHEREUMEthereum Trading Strategy All we need for this trading strategy is two technical indicators: The MACD – This is a momentum indicator that can help us spot a trend. The MFI or the Money Flow Index an overlooked but critical technical indicator that measures the money flow into or out of a cryptocurrency. The MACD is one of the most common indicators used by traders around the world in a variety of different markets to spot trades before they happen. The MFI indicator is based on price action and it incorporates Volume in its calculation, which is quite similar to other oscillators. In other words, we can use the MFI indicator to measure buying and selling pressure. We can use the MFI indicator to trigger entries and to take profits. The easiest way to interpret the MFI indicator is that a reading above the 50 level represents an inflow of money into the cryptocurrency, while a reading below the 50 level represents an outflow of funds from the cryptocurrency. The other critical MFI thresholds are 20 and 80. An MFI reading of 20 is considered bullish and oversold while a reading above the 80 level is considered bearish and overbought. Step #1: Wait until the Money Flow Index drop below the 20 level The first rule is that you always want to wait for the Money Flow Index to be in oversold territory. In other words, we need to have an MFI reading below the 20 level. An extreme MFI reading below 20 suggests that there is very heavy money outflow from Ethereum. As history has repeatedly shown, this information can be used as a contrarian indicator. The MFI indicator is not a standalone indicator. There are plenty of good cryptocurrencies that have high MFI reading, and most bad ones have low MFI reading. So, in order to use the MFI indicator, we need to check it against other technical indicators which are the reason why we also use the MACD indicator. Step #2: Wait for MACD histogram to break above the zero level The second rule is to wait for the MACD histogram to turn positive. This is a confirmation that the bullish momentum is starting to build up. Now, we have two rules in place, but these are still not enough to trigger an entry. Indicator-based strategies are very unpredictable which is the reason why we’ve added another confirmation signal before to enter and buy Ethereum. Now, we’re going to lay down a straightforward entry technique for Ethereum trading system. Step #3: After MACD turned positive, Buy after MFI also breaks above the 50 level. As an extra measure of caution, we also like to wait for the MFI indicator to break above the 50 level before to buy Ethereum. A reading above the 50 level represents an inflow of money into Ethereum which is the moment when smart money is stepping into the market. We want to trade alongside smart money to really make a profit trading the cryptocurrency market. Step #4: Place Protective Stop Loss below the Previous Swing low In order to minimize our potential loss we want to place our protective stop loss very close to the market price but at the same time at a price where it should really invalidate our trade signal. For the Ethereum strategy, the ideal place to hide the stop loss is just below previous swing low. You can always add a buffer to protect yourself in case of a false breakout. Step #5: Take Profits when the MFI enters Overbought territory or above the 80 level When it comes to our Ethereum take profit trading strategy we want to cash some profits at the first sign that the market is about to turn against us. Otherwise, we risk given back some of our hard earned gains. The first indication that the market is about to turn is when the Money Flow Index enters into overbought territory. In other words, when the MFI breaks above 80 levels, we take profits. Use the same rules for a SELL trade – but in reverse. Ethereum has fundamental advantages that hopefully will help Ethereum price suppress Bitcoin in the coming years.

Wabi: destined to bounceWabi is one of those projects that has a actual live product: placing secure anti-counterfeiting labels on consumer products mainly in China (think Chinese baby-milk powder scandal) but also planning to move more international. Wabi had a huge run down. RSI indicator on the daily went from overbought allmost straight to oversold where we now seem to recover. Also some horizontal support might be in play here. It is to early to call the bottem in, but at the least some nice recovery (30% potentially) should be in the cards here. Traders could go long here, investors with longer time horizons might wait for the break of the upperside of the downward channel.

Possible BTC recovery signs??BTCUSD : DAILY Are we seeing a the clouds clear up?? If we fill out all of these scenarios we may see some serious recovery happen over the next month as we approach the tip of this wedge. I am seeing a Head and Shoulders pattern possibly fill out here pending some ideal conditions: - Stoch RSI double bounce, cross, and separation due to oversold condition signaling bullish movement upward. - RSI staying above or bouncing off of 32 level and increasing strength into the bullish zone. - And most ideally, a MACD crossover as close to, if not on, the Zero line. I see this consistently, MASSIVE bullish movement after a MACD cross ON the zero line. Oooooofffff course....... it could very well break out below the wedge, but that's not a happy thought. Plus I prefer to make rockets on my charts, not missiles =) The price might bounce off of the $7510 resistance, but will likely hit the $6950 to $7000 range before it begins recovery, this is kissing the current trend line as well as a strong resistance intersection point. Assuming these conditions are met and the price doesn't jump off of a cliff, we need to see some consistent closes above previous resistance lines, and hopefully we will see a positive breakout of the wedge come end of March or beginning of April. However, if it drops below that trend line, the next identified support is at the $6100 to $6200 range. Fingers crossed that I will not have to reevaluate due to those conditions..... I seriously put a lot of work into my rocket. -Spreck Standard disclaimer: This is not financial advice, just ramblings of some dude that likes looking at, and drawing on graphs.

BEST MOMENTUM TRADING STRATEGYBCHUSD 15M WILLIAMS %R INDICATOR STRATEGY My 15m scalping technique - 14 length Our team at Trading Strategy Guides believes that a momentum indicator strategy can reduce risk and enhance your overall returns. One of the core market principles is that momentum precedes price so in this sense a momentum indicator strategy is more like a trend following strategy. Essentially trends tend to continue and we can use momentum to determine when to buy and when to sell. There are various explanations for why momentum occurs. The simplest explanation would be that rising prices attract buyers and falling prices attracts sellers. Using a momentum indicator strategy, it means we’re only going to hold the trade for a very short period of time, anywhere between a few minutes and up to a few days. Basically, the best momentum trading strategy runs until the momentum drys out. So, we only want to concentrate on the relative strength of any instrument. The best momentum indicator is by far the Williams %R indicator. This momentum indicator will help us identify profitable trading opportunities. Works with all market and time frames. The preferred settings for the best forex momentum indicator is 40 periods The Williams %R runs on a scale from -100 to zero. A reading in the vicinity of -100 is an indication that the instrument is oversold and it’s a potential buying opportunity and once it reaches zero, that’s an indication of overbought and maybe the time to sell. Step #1: Define the Trend. An Uptrend is defined by a Series of HH Followed by a Series of HL. The definition of an uptrend is pretty much standard. In an uptrend, we look for a series of higher highs followed by a series of higher lows. Two HH followed by at least another two HL is enough to define an uptrend. A higher high is simply a swing high point that is higher than the previous swing high. While a higher low is simply a swing low that is higher than the previous swing low. In order to gauge momentum besides reading the best momentum indicator we also look at the actual price action. Step #2: In an Uptrend Look for Bold Candlesticks that Close Near the Higher End of the Candlestick. A common concept in technical analysis is that you want to use multiple confirmation signs when buying and selling. This will increase the likelihood that’s a high probability trading setup. In this regard, the momentum trading strategy besides using the best momentum indicator also incorporates the price action. A practical way to read momentum from a price chart is to simply look at the candlestick length. What we want to see in an uptrend is big, bold bullish candlesticks that close near the higher end of the candlestick. Step #3: Wait for the best Forex Momentum Indicator to get oversold (below -80) and then rallies above the -50 level before Buying In an uptrend, we buy after the best momentum indicator has reached oversold conditions (below -80) and then rallied back above the -50 level. Now, we have confirmation from both the price and the best momentum indicator that real momentum is behind this trend and the probabilities are in favor of more upside prices from here on. Note* If the best momentum indicator continually stays in overbought territory (above -20 level) it signals a strong momentum and conversely a strong trend. Inversely the same is true in a downtrend. Step #4: Place Your Protective Stop Loss below the Recent Higher Low We want to hide our protective stop loss below the most recent higher low level that formed right before the best momentum trading strategy issue the buy signal. Alternatively, you can also trail your stop loss below each most recent higher low. This strategy will allow you to lock-in the potential profits in case of a sudden market reversal. Step #5: Take Profit once we break below the Previous Higher Low Alternatively, you can take profit once the best momentum indicator breaks below the -50 level.

$ADA ready for takeoff. With Targets.Like many alts right now $ADA also seems to have broken out of its, now past, trend. We should see a nice pump as soon as Bitcoin is more stable, or as soon as Volume follows. 3.1k is a potential resistance zone, but after that, we shouldn't have much resistance until the Major Fib levels (0.382, 0.5, 0.618). As marked on the chart, I suggest you take some profits at each of them, and keep a lot out on the RSI for whether or not it's overbought (it's currently oversold), and also at volume to see if the breakout is confirmed.

GBPUSD - Descending ChannelThe previous chart showing this trade setup (along with the majority of my other charts) were hidden/deleted due to accidentally breaking the rules with my descriptions. Sorry guys! I'm re-posting it since it was still on my screen... Black line is entry, green line is initial TP level, red line is SL. I don't know how much of a demand there is for me posting here. I'm not sure if anybody other than those who are connected to me via other channels are even able to view these charts as visibility is skewed towards those with thousands of followers on the home page... So I'm unsure if I will continue posting. Maybe occasionally, I'm not sure yet... You guys know you can always PM me to discuss trade ideas though or ask for friendly advice. But anyway, this is fairly safe, low risk trade. Enjoy.

EURNZD 4H Trade Setup-30m Timing-5m Entry PointThese 3 charts helps us understand how to use a 4H chart to find a trade, how to use a 30 m chart to find the market timing as not to enter too early into the trade, and the 5m chart to find the best entry point to give us the best risk to reward entry. Macd helps us to find direction and reversal points from the Macd being over sold/bought from the stochastic 20/80 blue dotted level lines. The Macd red 0 level line helps to know trend bias (price above red 0 level possible bullish bias) Take profit levels will be covered in an update. Any question you have on the dual macd/stochastic send me a PM and I will be glad to help you setup this indicator.
