Bitcoin: BTCUSD Pivot point for today looks to be 6450Bitcoin: BTCUSD Update/levels for longs This trade is in balance, but OK above 6450 The trend is overall positive right now barring super near term test of lower parallel and successful, so far, retest of the key level at 6450 - which looks to be the pivot for day on downside) So If broken at any point and our stop 50 points lower is struck we should look to reverse short again on the next rally attempt towards 6440 once it's broken - it must then fail there to trigger the short with stop 50 points above. But until the stop is hit, the trade is good and we stay long to target at 6940 and then we look to close out and get short again with stop 50/60 points above. We then need price to fall below the lower parallel of this impulse wave with some red candles appearing, bigger the better...so if don't see this, just some lazy backing and filling but held up by the lower parallel it means Bitcoin is stronger than anticipated and needs a plan B, again...the width of the parallels is 250 points, great for day-traders and maybe even for swing traders who are willing to sit with it for a while as one of 3 things occur, most likely: 1. It does what it's meant to, reaches target, get short again, red candles, quite big, a failed bounce and then break of the lower parallel about 250 lower at 6700 by this point in time and all's well with the short back to 6510 target and then reverse again, going long with stop under 6420. Sweet. 2. It falls below 6450 and then our stop below here and we're out with 50 point loss plus spreads and reversing completely. 3. It hits our desired target but It doesn't want to break the the lower parallel around 6700 when tested, it holds. In which case close out shorts and wait to see if the bounce is strong with nice green candles again or feeble and likely to fail ...if so short gain when failure is evident, on first retest of the failed lower parallel from underneath (with stop 50 points above), looking for 6510 target, as above from there. On upside, further out in time, and so we are prepared with straight-forward plans (for experienced traders, anyway) for any eventuality: Any break above 6960 which is then sustained on the next pull back would be very surprising (so could happen, it's BItcoin don't forget) and mean we have to long again with stops 50 points under 6940 level. So the pivot point on upsdie is 6960 by look of thins

THE IMPORTANCE OF VOLUME ANALYSISGood day, All! Originally, I just wanted to publish another trading idea: But the more I was looking at the chart, the more it looked like a good example of volume analysis technique. Basically, the concept is pretty simple - when the price is testing strong supply/demand zones, support/resistance levels, trend lines/etc, significant volume spikes are always accompanying these attempts and further price moves. Such an impulse is usually enough for the price to travel certain distance, but is loosing its momentum over time. In order to keep it moving, the price should be supported by further regular medium or higher than that volume spikes. If the momentum is lost, the market is entering the flat period. At the same time, the stopping volume at important key points is usually quite higher than the volume which is just enough to keep the price going in already established trend. Really high volume is a great way to detect that something interesting is going on and that this MAY (but NOT necessarily!) be an indication of a turning point. I would like to underline that sudden volume dynamics change should not be used directly to predict the future trend, but rather should be used to check if the price really keeps its previous direction or it signifies the increased probability of the reversal. Volume changes at certain levels are initiating, supporting and stopping the waves and patterns which are creating the market as we know it and thus being definitely worth at least keeping a close eye on the sudden changes of their dynamics. This is my very first purely educational post and I hope it was helpful :-) If you have any questions, feel free to ask in comments or PM me.

AUD/USD SELL 09/10/2017 AUD/USD also did not show any significant reaction of the labor market data in the USA on Friday. The only thing that we should note is the new support 0.7744 which contains large volume. Nevertheless, our previous scenario of opening short positions remains actual, but now we need to wait for the sharp breakdown of the support. A move should be supported by increased/large volume. A stop loss should be placed above the breakdown volume bar. A potential of the deal is 70 points. The bottom line: short positions after a sure breakdown of the support.

SPX500 price rejection at prior Week MedianHere, I offer a look at using the prior time frame Median as a means of bullish or bearish sentiment/trend. The indicator plots PRIOR Daily, Weekly and Monthly Medians. Currently, this week, we have Bearish Cross of the short term Daily Median below the prior Week Median give us an obvious bearish formation. Conversely, possible value in longer term view for Bulls. Price has been rejected from the prior Weekly Median as we see an ascending wedge being formed. Point of exhaustion/explosion to play out very soon.
