Priceaction
Gold: Weekly overviewHello Traders,
Political condition could cause unstable movements in the market.
The indicated levels are determined based on the most reaction points and the assumption of approximately equal distance between the zones.
These points can also be confirmed by the mathematical intervals of Murray.
After reacting to the following zones, you can enter the trade. Place the stop loss slightly above/below the zone to which the reaction was shown. The profit point is the next zone.
The drawn channels and their medians can also be considered as moving support and resistance. I usually use them as target points.
* A break is confirmed, only if price does not have any moving S&R on it's way.
This analysis is valid until the end of the week.
Intel Breakdown Alert! Bearish Setup with High R:R Opportunity !📉 Intel Corporation (INTC) – Bearish Setup Analysis
Timeframe: 4H | Ticker: NASDAQ:INTC | Exchange: NASDAQ
🔍 Technical Breakdown
We are currently observing a potential bearish reversal on Intel Corp. following a clear breakdown from a rising parallel channel on the 4H chart.
🟦 Pattern Observed
Price was previously moving within a rising channel, forming higher highs and higher lows – a typical short-term bullish structure.
Recently, price broke down below the lower boundary of this channel, signaling a potential shift in momentum from bullish to bearish.
📌 Trade Setup
Entry Zone: Between $20.22 – $20.06
Price is currently trading in this zone, presenting a potential short entry opportunity following the channel breakdown.
Stop Loss: $21.77
Placed above the previous resistance zone and the broken channel. If the price reclaims this level, the bearish thesis is invalidated.
Final Target: $17.70
This level represents a key support zone from previous price action and aligns with potential measured move from the channel breakdown.
✅ Why This Setup?
Channel Breakdown
A break below a well-defined channel often marks a change in trend. This gives a high-probability setup for trend reversal traders.
Bearish Momentum Confirmation
After the breakdown, price failed to reclaim the channel, and is now trading below the prior support, flipping it into resistance.
Risk/Reward Ratio
This setup offers an excellent R:R ratio, with downside potential toward $17.70 and a relatively tight stop just above the failed structure.
Market Structure Alignment
Lower highs and lower lows now appear to be forming post-breakdown, further confirming a potential bearish move ahead.
📉 Bias: Short
📈 Invalidation: Break and close above $21.77
🎯 Target: $17.70
🧠 Disclaimer: This is not financial advice. Always do your own research and manage your risk accordingly. Trade safe!
AERO: Coming in to Refuel… or Crash Land!? AERO: Coming in to Refuel… or Crash Land!?
📅 Date: May 23, 2025
🧠 Framework: Elliott Wave with Fibonacci structure
🔍 Context: 4H timeframe
🔁 Recap of the Move
AERO rallied off the 0.3465–0.3475 double bottom in what appears to be a clean 5-wave impulsive sequence. The price action respected both structural and Fibonacci guidelines:
Wave 2 and Wave 4 both pulled back to 0.5 retracements.
Wave 3 extended and subdivided with strong momentum, a common characteristic
Wave 5 completed between 0.5 and 0.618 of Wave 3 from the Wave 4 low — a textbook termination zone
Subdivisions within Wave 5 were also visible, including a smaller internal Wave 3 and 5, reinforcing the case for a completed motive wave.
⚠️ Current Price Behavior
Post-impulse, the market is showing signs of correction. This pullback could mark the beginning of a deeper retracement, or it may be the early stages of a new larger-degree impulse if the uptrend continues.
📏 Levels to Watch
Retracement zone: 0.54–0.49 (50–61.8% of the full move)
Upside resumption: Requires a strong bounce from the retrace zone and break of the Wave 5 high
🔮 Outlook
Two scenarios remain on the table:
Bullish: This is a Wave 2 retracement in a larger degree move. If support holds, a strong Wave 3 may follow.
Bearish/Neutral: The 5-wave or 3-wave structure is fully complete, and a deeper correction could be in play.
Confirmation will come through structure, not assumption. Keep watching how price behaves around the key retrace levels.

Gold (XAUUSD) Long Setup – Targeting Fresh Highs Bullish Move📊 Chart Breakdown & Market Context:
This 30-minute chart of Gold Spot (XAU/USD) shows a strong bullish price structure that is currently forming higher lows while respecting dynamic trendline support. The chart illustrates demand and supply transfers, which are pivotal concepts in price action trading. Let’s explore the technical reasoning behind this trade setup:
🔄 1. Demand & Supply Shift Zones:
Demand Transferred: Initially, price consolidated within the blue elliptical region. This area saw aggressive bullish pressure that pushed price upward, confirming the presence of institutional demand. As the market progressed, this demand shifted higher — now located at the most recent zone where price bounced after a pullback.
Supply Transferred : A major bearish reaction zone was taken out after the market absorbed selling pressure. This suggests that sellers are no longer in control and demand is rebalancing in favor of buyers.
📈 2. Bullish Structure Confirmation:
After the pullback on May 22, price formed a higher low, perfectly aligned with both the new demand zone and the ascending trendline support. This confirms that buyers are defending this area.
The price is currently pushing upward from this demand, signaling a potential bullish continuation.
The 50% equilibrium level of the recent bearish leg is being tested. A clean break and close above this level would confirm buyers’ dominance and could invite momentum trading interest.
🔵 3. Entry, Targets & Stop-Loss Plan:
✅ Entry:
Entry is ideal from the current price region near 3,313 (or on minor retracement, maintaining RR).
🎯 Take Profit Zones:
TP1 (~3,336): This is just above the 50% level and near the previous swing high. Partial take-profit here is wise in case price consolidates.
TP2 (~3,360): Located at the upper resistance zone, marking the potential target if bullish momentum continues.
❌ Stop-Loss:
SL: 3,287.891 — placed below the recent higher low and below the demand zone. This protects the trade from deeper pullbacks or breakdowns below structural support.
📉 4. Risk Management & Trade Psychology:
Maintain a Risk-Reward Ratio (RRR) of at least 1:2 to ensure profitable expectancy.
Avoid over-leveraging, as we are trading near a key resistance zone (50% area).
Watch for volume confirmation or strong bullish candles before fully committing to the trade.
Use a trailing stop once TP1 is hit to secure profits toward TP2.
⚠️ 5. Key Considerations Before Execution:
Monitor any macroeconomic events (e.g., Fed announcements, CPI/PPI, NFP) that may impact gold volatility.
Check DXY (Dollar Index) — if the dollar weakens, gold will likely strengthen further.
Volume behavior around the 50% zone will indicate breakout vs rejection.
🧠 Summary for Minds Section:
Gold shows a clear higher-low structure supported by trendline and demand transfer.
Buyers absorbed supply; now building momentum toward upper resistance zones.
Entry near 3,313, SL under 3,288, TP1 ~3,336, TP2 ~3,360.
Trend remains bullish unless trendline and demand zone are broken.
💡 Educational Takeaway: Watch for demand/supply shifts and trendline confirmations. This setup is a textbook example of structural continuation supported by market psychology and price action zones.
2025-05-22 - priceactiontds - daily update - nasdaqGood Evening and I hope you are well.
comment: Bears get nothing going. Everything is bought. This notion slightly changed today. We saw an increase in selling pressure and market made a decent lower high but problem for the bears is, the bull trend line held and so far we have only seen big tails below 21100. We have formed a triangle and we could see a bigger trend day tomorrow. Until the trend line breaks, I don’t think bigger shorts make sense.
current market cycle: trading range
key levels: 21000 - 22000
bull case: Bulls defended the trend line and if bears step aside enough, we could do a new ath over the next 2 weeks. For now they are buying the dips but are too weak to push for new highs. Still most arguments are on their side as long as we are in this clear channel.
Invalidation is below 20800.
bear case: Bears need a weekly close below 20800. What are the odds of that happening? Meh. Betting on a trend line break is almost never a good strategy. It needs to happen and you have to follow. So if bears can get a strong move and consecutive 1h bars below 20900, it would increase the odds greatly of more downside. Bears still have many problems given the daily chart. The gap down is to 20300 and the daily 20ema is around 20600. So even if we break the trend line, I doubt bears will just melt through the daily ema after such a squeeze.
Invalidation is above 21600.
short term: Neutral. For now I expect more chop until one side clearly gives up again and if I had to guess, bears are more likely to step aside since we have big obvious targets above and the trend line is still valid.
medium-long term - Update from 2024-04-20: My most bearish target for 2025 was 17500ish, given in my year-end special. We are +18% from the lows and I do think, once this turns again, it will easily be the short trade of the year.
trade of the day: Buy low, sell high and scalp. 21400 - 21460 was the main range and both sides made money today. Only real bad trade was shorting below 21400 or buying the Globex high.

Bitcoin Breaks to All-Time Highs — What’s Next for Price Structure?
Bitcoin has officially pushed into new all-time highs, and while the move wasn’t entirely unexpected, it still packs a punch. We discussed this possibility in recent videos, though I wasn’t fully convinced at the time. That’s the nature of trading—uncertainty is the cost of admission, and conviction builds as structure confirms.
As always, I was watching the price action closely. BTC started providing the clues needed to lean into the more bullish interpretation. The levels held. The flips were clean. Momentum lined up.
That said, I did take some speculative shorts at lower degrees—not to fight the trend, but to respect possible overextensions within the count. For those following the Elliott Wave roadmap, these intraday reactions were worth probing, but nothing confirmed a larger reversal yet.
The key now is structure.
We’re currently navigating uncharted territory, and in these zones, understanding wave context and market behavior around prior resistance becomes even more critical. There’s no overhead supply—only psychology, fib projections and profit-taking to watch for.
Here’s what I’m focused on:
Clear labeling of the motive sequence—is this the end of a Wave 3 or just a smaller subdivision?
Volume behavior and momentum divergence—looking for any signals that we’re near exhaustion.
Pullback zones—marking areas where Wave 4 or consolidation might emerge, if it’s due.
This is a time to stay sharp, not euphoric.
Trade safe, trade smart, trade clarity.
BTC - New Impulse Soon!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈 BTC has been bullish, trading within the rising channel marked in orange. 🟧
In a typical trend, corrections are usually bearish. 🔻
However, in BTC’s case, the correction phases marked in red are flat — a strong signal that the bulls are in control 💪 and not allowing the bears to trigger a classic pullback.
As long as BTC holds within the rising orange channel, we expect the next impulse phase to kick off soon 🚀 — aiming for the $115,000 round number. 🎯
This move will be confirmed once BTC breaks above the current flat correction zone marked in red. ✅
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!

WLD - AI Cycle Is Back!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈WLD has been in a correction phase. However it is still overall bullish long-term trading within the rising channel marked in blue.
Moreover, the green zone is a strong support and round number $1.
🏹 Thus, the highlighted blue circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of support and lower blue trendline acting non-horizontal support.
📚 As per my trading style:
As #WLD retests the blue circle zone, I will be looking for bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...)
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!

Rising Wedge Breakdown – Bearish Setup on Silver (XAGUSD)Silver (XAG/USD) is currently trading within a bearish rising wedge formation on the 8-hour timeframe, and the market structure is hinting at a potential reversal to the downside. The confluence of resistance zones, pattern anatomy, and historical price action all point to a high-probability short setup, especially if key support levels are breached.
📈 Pattern Analysis: Rising Wedge
A rising wedge is typically a bearish chart pattern that forms when price consolidates between two upward sloping trendlines. However, the upper trendline rises at a slower pace than the lower one—indicating decelerating bullish strength. It often precedes a bearish breakout, especially if volume decreases near the apex.
In this case, the wedge is forming just below a major resistance zone around the $34.00 area, adding weight to the bearish scenario.
🔹 Key Technical Levels :
🟥 Resistance Zone ($33.80–$34.80): Price has tested and rejected this area multiple times in recent weeks. It marks a clear liquidity zone where sellers are in control.
🟩 Support Zone ($29.50–$30.30): This zone has provided strong support in previous retracements. If broken, it may flip into resistance upon retest.
🟦 Retest Zone (~$31.00–$31.50): If the wedge breaks downward, price may retest this area—creating an opportunity for traders to enter short with better risk-reward.
🎯 Final Bearish Target : $26.85: This level is derived from the height of the wedge and prior demand zones, making it a strong target area in a fully played-out bearish move.
🧠 Market Structure & Sentiment:
Volume Analysis – Volume has been tapering off as the price squeezes within the wedge, which is a typical trait of rising wedges. A volume spike on breakdown would serve as confirmation.
Trend Analysis – While the overall trend in the medium term has been bullish, the weakening upward momentum suggests that buyers are losing strength, and sellers may regain control soon.
Rejection Candle s – Several recent candle wicks above the $33.50 zone show clear rejection and failure to close above, reinforcing the resistance level.
📊 Trade Plan (Educational Purposes Only):
Criteria Details
Bias Bearish (Rising Wedge Breakdown)
Entry Option 1 On breakdown of wedge + retest
Entry Option 2 Aggressive entry on breakdown candle close below $31.50
Stop Loss Above $33.80 (last resistance)
Take Profit 1 $30.00 (support zone)
Take Profit 2 $28.00 (partial exit)
Take Profit 3 $26.85 (final target)
📌 Trading Psychology Note:
Traders should remain patient and avoid entering prematurely. Let the pattern confirm itself with a clean break and retest. Risk management is critical—wedge patterns can also fake out before reversing hard.
🧾 Summary:
Silver is nearing the end of a rising wedge pattern, right under a heavy resistance zone. Historical behavior, weakening momentum, and classic wedge structure suggest a potential bearish reversal. A break below the wedge support and a retest around $31.00 could present a high-probability short trade setup targeting the $26.85 area.
Keep this chart on watch. A decisive move is likely coming soon.
Will Gold Finally Reverse?After a strong and extended uptrend, gold is now ranging. On the 4H timeframe, a clear CHoCH broke structure, hinting at early weakness.
The inducement above price acts like a magnet. If swept, it could trigger a reaction from the 4H supply zone. That area marks a potential turning point for a deeper shift.
If this rejection holds, we may be witnessing the first signs of a high-timeframe reversal.
BTC/USD: Structural Breakout of Curved Resistance – Eyes on $116Technical Overview:
Bitcoin (BTC) has successfully completed a significant technical breakout after months of accumulation and resistance interaction. The chart highlights a precise market structure where price has moved from a phase of consolidation into a confirmed bullish breakout, with a clearly defined target and invalidation level.
1. SR Interchange Zone (Support-turned-Resistance):
From May to October 2024, BTC price action was trapped in a sideways range, marked by an extended accumulation phase between approximately $60,000 to $73,000. This zone acted as a historical resistance level during the downtrend, but was later flipped into support, forming a classic SR Interchange — a foundational concept in market structure analysis.
This area provided a strong base from which BTC launched its late 2024 rally.
2. Consolidation Below Curved Resistance (Dec 2024 – Apr 2025):
Following a steep bullish impulse, BTC entered a multi-month consolidation phase, forming a rounded top pattern — shown on the chart as the Black Mind Curve Resistance. This curved resistance represented a psychological and structural ceiling, suppressing bullish momentum and trapping liquidity.
Price action was tightly compressed under this dynamic resistance curve, with multiple failed breakout attempts. This period was marked by range-bound volatility and low directional commitment — classic behavior during a re-accumulation phase.
3. Breakout of Black Mind Curve Resistance (May 2025):
A major technical event occurred as BTC broke decisively above the Black Mind Curve Resistance, accompanied by a surge in bullish momentum. This move not only invalidated the prior rounding top structure but also confirmed a trend continuation breakout.
The breakout was clean, with strong follow-through volume and a higher high structure above the Major Horizontal Resistance Zone (~$105,000–$109,000) — now confirmed as flipped support.
4. Bullish Continuation & Price Target:
Following the breakout, BTC has established a higher low and continued its upward trajectory toward the marked target zone at $116,065. This zone coincides with:
Previous untested supply levels
Technical Fibonacci extension (1.272–1.618 zone)
Measured move from the curve structure base
With current momentum and structure intact, BTC remains bullishly biased until it either reaches the target zone or breaks below the invalidation level.
5. Invalidation & Risk Management:
A close below $102,005 — the defined SI (Support-Invalidation) level — would be considered structurally bearish. This level represents:
The most recent higher low
Base of the breakout structure
Re-entry into previous consolidation range
A breakdown below this level would invalidate the bullish thesis and may open the door for a deeper pullback toward $95,000 or even $88,000.
✅ Conclusion:
The breakout of the Black Mind Curve Resistance marks a significant technical shift in Bitcoin’s trend. With momentum in favor of the bulls and market structure supporting higher prices, BTC appears poised to test the $116,000 target zone in the short to mid-term — barring a breakdown below key support.
📌 Key Levels Recap:
Level Type Price
Target Zone $116,065
Current Price $110,902
Support / Invalidation (SI) $102,005
📈 Strategy Outlook:
Bias: Bullish
Entry Area: Retest of $107,000–$109,000 (if offered)
Target: $116,065
Stop-Loss: Below $102,005 (structural invalidation)

XAUUSD – Rising Wedge Breakdown in Play? | Bearish Setup Alert🧠 Market Analysis
Gold (XAUUSD) has shown incredible bullish strength in recent months, driven by geopolitical tensions, inflation uncertainty, and increased demand for safe-haven assets. However, every trend experiences a pause or correction — and that’s where we may currently be.
📊 Pattern Overview: Rising Wedge Formation
One of the most prominent technical patterns right now is the Rising Wedge. This is a bearish reversal pattern that occurs when price action consolidates upwards in a narrowing range, indicating waning bullish momentum and an imminent breakdown.
In this chart:
We see a clear series of higher highs and higher lows, forming two converging trendlines.
The upper trendline acts as dynamic resistance, while the lower one has been supporting price until now.
The wedge has now broken to the downside, signaling the potential start of a new short-term downtrend.
🔍 Key Technical Elements Explained:
🔵 1. Major Resistance Zone
Marked in the blue rectangular box, this zone has acted as a historical pivot area — both as support and resistance in the past.
The market respected this zone multiple times.
Price action tends to hesitate or reverse in such regions due to large institutional order flows.
🧠 2. Black Mind Curve Resistance
Unlike flat trendlines, the "Black Mind Curve" represents a curved, psychological dynamic resistance — often based on market sentiment, Fibonacci arcs, or logarithmic regression.
It reflects the market’s natural rhythm and is respected due to the hidden behavior of algorithmic trading systems.
Price just rejected this resistance after touching it during the wedge formation — a strong bearish clue.
🔄 3. Retest in Progress
After breaking out of the rising wedge to the downside, price is now retesting the broken wedge support.
This is a common price behavior known as the “kiss of death” — a final tap before continuation.
If the price fails to reclaim this broken support zone, it confirms a bearish continuation is on the table.
🎯 Trade Plan: Entry, Target & Stop
Trade Element Details
Bias Bearish
Entry Idea On confirmation of retest rejection (e.g., bearish engulfing candle)
Stop Loss (SL) Above the recent high or resistance – near $3,413.58
Take Profit (TP) First major support near $3,153.70 (SR Interchange)
Risk-Reward Ratio Estimated between 1:2 to 1:3, depending on entry
🔥 Bonus Target: If momentum increases, an extended drop toward $3,100–$3,080 is possible — where deeper demand lies.
🧘♂️ Trading Psychology & Risk Management:
Let’s face it: Even the best setup can fail — which is why discipline is your edge.
Confirmation is Key: Never short just because of a pattern. Wait for structure + candlestick confirmation (e.g., bearish engulfing, shooting star, etc.).
Emotions Kill Accounts : Don’t let greed convince you to skip stop-losses or over-leverage.
Let Price Come to You: If you missed the perfect entry, don’t chase. The market always gives second chances.
🧠 Educational Insight : What Makes This Setup Powerful?
This setup is a confluence trade, meaning:
You’re not relying on one signal, but multiple confirmations:
Rising wedge (pattern-based)
Resistance zone (horizontal S&D)
Curved dynamic resistance (psychological + advanced trendline)
Retest + rejection behavior (price action)
These stacked layers of confirmation increase the probability of a successful trade.
📌 Final Thoughts:
Gold is showing all the technical signs of a short-term bearish correction, despite the broader bullish narrative. For smart traders, this is an opportunity to catch a swing short with a clear entry, stop, and target.
The key to winning here? Patience and confirmation.
You don’t have to predict the market — just react to it with logic and discipline. Let the setup unfold naturally, and let the trade come to you.

USDJPY Long Setup: Triple Confluence Zone Locked InSmart money traders love one thing more than anything — confluence. This BTCUSD setup hits all the marks:
📈 Structure Breakdown:
Market breaks structure to the upside ✅
Impulsive bullish leg breaks prior high ✅
Pullback into 61.8% golden zone + OB ✅
Rejection wick = perfect entry confirmation ✅
This is a high-probability continuation setup after BTC made a clear bullish BOS (Break of Structure) on the M30 timeframe.
🟦 Order Block Zone:
OB Range:
Top: ~106,989
Bottom: ~106,759
This OB was the last down candle before the big bullish impulse that broke structure. Price returned to mitigate here, then instantly rejected = Smart Money entry confirmed 🔒
🧮 Fibonacci Levels:
61.8%: Sliced right into it
70.5% – 79%: Deeper liquidity zone just below
The entry wick taps right into the sweet OB/Fib confluence zone and launches 🚀. It’s giving sniper precision with a low drawdown entry.
🎯 Trade Parameters:
Entry: ~106,759
SL: Below the OB zone
TP: 108,022 (previous high)
That’s an RRR of around 3.5–4.0x — a clean asymmetric play, just the way smart money wants it.
🔍 Confirmation Factors:
Bullish BOS on M30
Price returns to OB zone + golden ratio
Clean rejection candle with demand absorption
No internal structure break = bullish narrative still valid
🧠 Key Lesson:
“When OB meets Fibonacci, don’t ask why. Load up — the market just told you why.”
Let setups like this come to you. No chasing, no emotions. Let the algo-driven footprints guide you to the money.
📈 Missed this one? Save it for your playbook — this is how high-probability trades are built.

After catching the directional turn and key pivot level ahead of the recent move, Ethereum delivered the reaction we were anticipating. But what comes next?
The current W2 corrective structure isn’t textbook, so what do we do?
At this stage, we’re anchoring our analysis off the Wave 3 price action, which likely completed before the latest correction. That sets us up to track a potential Wave 4 development.
Here’s what’s still on the table:
We have a sideways style W2
For a wave 4, based off of alternation, we should be looking for a:
A sharp zigzag
Or a contracting triangle coiling up for the next breakout
Key Level to Watch:
👉 A clean break below 2159 would invalidate the more bullish interpretations and open the door to deeper corrective action. ⚠️
Until then, staying patient and letting the structure develop will be key.
Trade safe, trade smart, trade clarity.
2025-05-21 - priceactiontds - daily update - daxGood Evening and I hope you are well.
comment: Quick stuff. Daily new ath means bulls are doing more than bears so don’t look for shorts. Today’s selling was a start but we need a clean lower high before one can look for decent short setups. I think anything above 24300 would make me physically sick.
current market cycle: broad bull channel
key levels: 23000 - 24300
bull case: Sideways above 24000 is peak bullishness and as long as we stay above 23750, bulls are fine. Below we test down to the bull trend line which is not far below that and only below 23400 things are getting more spicy for bulls.
Invalidation is below 23300.
bear case: I will spend more time in this section once we have a daily close below 23400. Before that, it’s most likely a pullback that bulls will buy. Odds are heavily against bears so don’t make your life tough. Long term shorts if you can hold through 24500 or higher are fine. Next 10-20% will be made to the downside, zero doubt about it. Only matter is timing.
Invalidation is above 24300.
short term: Neutral. Pullbacks will likely be good long opportunities until we see bigger selling pressure. Bulls in full control but I will not buy the highs. Nothing changed.
medium-long term from 2025-05-11: So here is my very rough guess about the next months. This short squeeze is clearly overdone and global macro stuff has most likely already deteriorated a great deal. Down to 20000 over the next weeks and form a big trading range. Up through October-Year end. Zero thought about a new bull trend above 24000 or that we have seen the lows for either 2025 or 2026. Good question is always, “How would you allocate 100k right now?”. 50% short dax, 25% of it levered/options and with the rest I would scalp.
trade of the day: Buying the bear trap below yesterday’s low was amazing and so was short 24200. Both buying and selling pressure were so great that market did not run stops above or below the extremes.
