Rangetrading
EUR/USD Short positions predictionsComment: The graph must touch the black gravity line what becomes a support for the new RANGE,
preparing for the EUR/USD explosion to the UPSIDE of the triangle pattern !
That could'nt be realised without a push from the very strong support
and the black DOWNRANGE line.
BTCUSD 4H KELTNER CHANNEL RANGE TRADING STRATEGYTrading Ranging Markets with Keltner Channel
It is said that the number one account killer in the market is a ranging market. Consolidations are very difficult to trade. However, you can take advantage of the difference in the way the Keltner channel system can be used in combination with other technical indicators.
The price won’t really touch the bands when it bounces between the upper and lower envelopes. When we’re in a ranging market, you’ll often see that the price will fail to touch the bands. The majority of the time the price will hug the middle band.
This anomaly in price behavior requires us to use a secondary technical indicator to find profitable trades.
Since the Forex market spends most of its time in consolidation (around 70% of the time), it’s mandatory to have a range trading strategy to survive in this market.
For range trading, we like to use Keltner Channel bands in combination with a 2-period RSI indicator. We tweaked the RSI settings so we can better identify tops and bottoms within a trading range.
*Note #3: For this Keltner trading strategy we use the 90-10 levels of overbought and oversold readings.
Here are some rules that can guide you to make the best trading decisions:
Keltner envelopes need to turn flat, to signal a consolidation.
The price needs to break below the middle band.
A buy order is triggered once the 2-period RSI goes below 10 indicating oversold conditions.
The protective stop loss can be hidden on the other side of the Keltner band.
For the long side take profit when the RSI reaches the 90 levels.
Bitcoin's Range MovementPlease leave a LIKE and COMMENT if you like the analysis.
Yesterday's decrease caused the price to fall back within the $7150 - $6650 trading range. While it initially found some support above the midpoint of the range, it fell below afterwards. The bearishness is strengthened by the possible bearish cross between the 50- and 200-period moving averages (MA), otherwise known as a death cross.
An almost identical movement occurred on April 11. The price had increased above the resistance of the range, only to fall back inside it shortly afterwards. After the death cross occurred, the price moved upwards all the way to the resistance line, only to drop sharply afterward.
If the same movement transpired this time around, the BTC price would increase and touch the resistance line only to fall towards support afterward.
EURNZD 1D BULL FLAG LONG TRADEBull Flags are a Range pattern and are a repeatable trading chart patterns.
Bull Flag chart patterns will have a directional bias depending on the previous incoming trend.
Each chart pattern will have defining trendlines of the support/resistance levels creating the pattern.
Whatever time frame you are trading this chart pattern, wait for a candle close outside of the trendline in the direction of the breakout candle. (Our time frame preference is the Daily chart).
Add volume indicator - Volume is the amount of $ that went into a particular candle or in Forex the # of trades that took place.
Add ATR indicator - Volatility is the amount of price movement that occurred. Use the ATR to measure the price movement.
When you see descending Volume bars and descending ATR line (which indicates volatility) this shows
a dis-interest in traders to invest in this pair creating consolidation which creates the chart pattern.
Trade Management after there is a breakout candle close.
1 - Position size (compare volume bar to volume ma line).
a - Breakout candle must be 100% of average volume for a full position size.
b - If 75% of average volume then ½ position size. (To find 75% of Volume
look at the charts volume settings – divide smaller # into larger # = 75%+)
2 - Enter two trades.
3 - SL for both trades will be 1.5 x ATR.
4 - 1st trade TP will be 1 x ATR.
5 - No TP on 2nd trade – letting profit run and adjusting SL to follow price.
6 - When 1st TP hit – move 2nd trade SL to breakeven.
7 - Adjust the 2nd trade SL to follow price.
*8 – After Breakout candle – if price closes back into chart pattern close trade
*9 - When breakout candle is more than 1 ATR from breakout candle open.
a - Enter 1st trade at candle close with ½ position size.
b - Enter 2nd trade with a pending limit order that is 1 ATR of breakout candle open.
c – Price should pullback to that pending limit order for 2nd trade.
d – If Price returns back into chart pattern close trade before SL is hit.
Some Clarity on 4H BitcoinMade this chart for clarity.
Purple lines are the HTF ranges we're within.
A break above them on 1D or 1W would make me HTF bullish.
A break below them on 1D or 1W would make me HTF bearish.
While neither happens, I'm neutral - we're just ranging.
Green Xs are where I think a lot of long stops rest. Lots of liquidity in those areas.
Red Xs are short stops. Also lots of liquidity but much of it has been tapped in last few days.
I'm waiting for a setup to form. Out of anytrade in the meanwhile.
If we break 6630 on the 1H, I'll short a possible retest of it, with green Xs as targets, and last high before breakdown as stops.
I'll only enter a long if we smash the purple line - top of our range.
SPY range trading, AlphaOverBeta Technical AnalysisHello traders,
SPY had completed a 1-2-3 pattern and is consolidating its price pattern, this is very good technical news as price returned to standard behavior after moving wildly and unpredictably.
The current trade range is 245-265 in the short term, any move above the 265( which our model begins to increase the probability for! ) will provide a bullish short term indication,
moving below the 240-245 will provide the trigger that the market is headed to re-test the 220 lows.
We are currently short term bullish on SPY with PUT options hedging our position, crossing the 265-270 resistance will provide a major trigger to go long equities.
Trade Smartly,
Alon, AlphaOverBeta

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!
12-Hour Time-Frame On BTCUSD Reveals The ChallengeThe red box is a trading range based on the first large red candle. We are currently trading inside of that candle. The previous 12 hour candle did close below but the current candle has popped up into the range again, so the break below was not confirmed.
MACD is pushing upwards towards the 0 level. If we can get to positive and break above that trading range then the journey back to the long-term blue trendline does not seem so great by the end of the month. The purple vertical line indicates the end of the month. This would paint a strong monthly reversal candle and the bull run will be back on.
With that optimistic view, based on MACD momentum as of right now, we remain bullish.
If the financial markets go through another strong break down, then of course all bets are off and bitcoin may tumble lower with the rest of global financial trading.
Traders may be opening longs here with stop losses placed below the red box. A good risk/reward position.

CRUDE OIL - RANGE BETWEEN 28 - 38 - SHORTTTExpecting crude to be ranging from 38 to 28 level. Preferable short term setup. Short all the way at price 35 -38 with a very good risk reward.
Stochastic is approaching high level of 80 in 4H chart. 1D still stuck at low level of 20 indicating the price will not move up much in the short term.
Do remember the trend is your friend but do set your cut loss tight as well.
Happy Trading ! :)

The RSI is also controlled within that range so watch for the RSI to to break range for a true trend change.

Bitcoin Revisits The Range LowsThe BTC price is trading inside a short-term range with the following limits:
Support - $7750
EQ -$7900
Resistance -$8050
Yesterday, it broke out above the resistance level but decreased below it shortly after, a strong bearish sign.
Currently, it is trading slightly below the EQ and has created a symmetrical triangle, which is a continuation pattern. Since it is coming after a decrease, a breakdown is expected that would take the price to the support level once more.
The $7650 area offers an interesting opportunity to look for longs in case the price initiates a failed breakdown and reverses to the other side.
