Riskreward

Good Risk/Reward SituationSXP looks really interesting here, and if you're a gambler, this might be a bet worth taking. The bearish case is that we have a large Descending Triangle. The bullish case is that we have Extreme seller exhaustion and may soon be printing bullish divergence. It's important to point out that while normally I would look at seller exhaustion as being a good bullish sign, *extreme* exhaustion can actually be a bearish sign as it can indicate that demand has all but dried up. However, in this market, a small-to-mid cap coin with dried up volume can be very tempting for speculators as it won't take very much volume to generate huge volatility. I think this is a gamble that could pay off big and might be worth a small position here.

Crypto bottleneck cointinues to tightenWe've been hugging the lower end of the Bollinger Bands since the November peak, without much chopping between. The bands continue narrowing, and moving sideways. If you believe in the power of the bands, you might note just how wide the risk : reward spread has gotten across the market. Massive gainer potential here folks! It might be choppy though, be careful! FTT Upper Target: 44.42 (+17%) Lower Target: 35.09 (-7%) BTC Upper Target: 53k (+26%) Lower Target: 40k (-4%) ETH Upper Target: 4349 (+38%) Lower Target: 3029 (-4%) Which side are you trading?

Could see a bounce now- Just broke out of lower BB band - Sitting on the lower trend line - RSI oversold on 1D We could see a bounce right now on the lower trend line, it is possible if a turn around happens that we could see 80k this time around and with a stop loss not far below the entry right on this trendline just below the accumulation zone our risk reward ratio for this trade is fantastic. Would wait for more confirmation before I longed here possibly waiting for the RSI to cross back over, but all in all it is looking like a nice place to start accumulating some long positions assuming we do not break 40k on the down side, If we do break the 40k on the down side we could head as low as 30kish.... :(

DISCA: LOW RISK BOUNCE SWING PLAY Disca has been dropping since March and has now reached an Ichimoku support on the weekly chart. My support is based on the flat side of the cloud. Quiet good risk/reward play . One could buy at the current price level with a stop between 24.90 and 23.5 depending on your risk tolerance and sizing. My target is between 32 and 35 as you can see on the chart. If we reach these target we will reassess and see whether we have a sustained trend reversal. Trade safe! More on Ichimoku (by Investopedia): The Ichimoku Cloud is a collection of technical indicators that show support and resistance levels, as well as momentum and trend direction. It does this by taking multiple averages and plotting them on a chart. It also uses these figures to compute a “cloud” that attempts to forecast where the price may find support or resistance in the future. Key takeaways: The Ichimoku Cloud is composed of five lines or calculations, two of which comprise a cloud where the difference between the two lines is shaded in. The lines include a nine-period average, a 26-period average, an average of those two averages, a 52-period average, and a lagging closing price line. The cloud is a key part of the indicator. When the price is below the cloud, the trend is down. When the price is above the cloud, the trend is up. The above trend signals are strengthened if the cloud is moving in the same direction as the price. For example, during an uptrend, the top of the cloud is moving up, or during a downtrend, the bottom of the cloud is moving down.

UPDATE: GALA UP 725% after bull signal - 280% more to come?Please Like or Follow if you enjoyed this content. UPDATE: The price went sideways for a while before the big pump in Nov. Making a whopping 725+% after the bullish "Supertrend Ninja" signal in Nov 2021. That's a life changing trade for many people. Currently the price seems to be in a range as well. Using Fibs there is potential gains of 280% around 1.62 USDT. Then again if we drop here, it could be as painful as 75%. Currently we are testing support, RSI is in an accumulation zone. Another small drop here before making a bull run, or continue moving sideways in the range wouldn't surprise me as well. GALA is a trade that definitely needs some proper risk management. Personally I would wait for the 'Supertrend Ninja' signal to turn bullish first. It might take days or weeks. Generally this indicator gives around 2-8 bullish signals a year. Supports and Resistances are highlighted as grey blocks. Profits can be taken at each grey block. Supports and resistances are automatically drawn using the indicator "Yo Show Me Some Support - and Resistances". Pun intended. Thank you for reading. Namasté 🙏 What Indicators Do I Use: In the chart I am using my "Supertrend Ninja indicator", which is a trend-following indicator (Green and red vertical line with arrows). When the background of the candlestick closes green (vertical line) with an upwards pointing pink arrow. It indicates a possible bullish (up)trend. With each trade proper risk management is essential. Either by using my script "Trailing Stoploss Bottom Activation indicator", visible as grey dots below the candles. Which sends an alert, when current price goes below the previous candle low. Or using my "Heikin Ashi Trailing Stoploss Activation", the indicator below with green and red blocks. Or third option, exit when the Supertrend Ninja indicator displays a vertical red line with a downwards pointing black arrow. Remember, the first stop(loss) is always the cheapest stop.

AUDUSD. Intraday A.I Trade. AUDUSD has an intraday long opportunity based on my A.I time prediction strategy. There are a lot of things coming together at the same time. 1. We have had a 120 point drop from the recent high with no 38.2% pullback yet. 2. We have the 89% retracement from the recent low and high 15m chart. This gives us a very low risk opportunity to see if its right. 3. There is an A.I expected turn area at 1200pm Jakarta time. If it is right then I'm expecting a 38.2% rally, or a rally into 830pm which ever happens first. A short term trade with a great R/R ratio. This strategy is time based not price, This is why I'm looking for an 830pm time not price. If it goes sideways for 30mins or more then the set up will be invalid.

Risk VS RewardWhen you first get into stocks the first lesson I would tell you to learn about is Risk vs Reward (R/R). I still don't completely grasp the finer points except that I keep making the same mistake and that is not measuring the Risk before I buy short dated options on SPX. Granted when you hit a short dated Out of the Money (OTM) options (referred to sometimes as Lottos) the rewards are amazing, but the risk you take holding them is much higher. You have a better chance going to a casino and betting it all on Black or White. Then there are Short Leveraged ETFs like SPXU. These are great equities/derivative to use Margin with on in a Carry Trade. My broker labels it as a Married Put and what it essentially lets you do is apply the premium of the In the Money (ITM) PUT you buy as your risk of the underlying going down (which is natural for short leveraged etfs) so they will lend you shares. You can then safely leverage up as much PUT premium as you can afford to risk. In the case of a market correction like what happened in Mar20, your reward would pay x 15k to 20k times your maximum risk. To put that in perspective, using 31k in put premium for the next 4 months (max risk 11k at SPXU $15) you would borrow 130k from your broker (10k shares of SPXU). The payout at SPXU $210 (march 2020 correction) would pay you out ~2 million dollars. Now is about the only time the margin interest will be low enough. When the Fed finally raises interest rates, the cost of borrowing 130k for 4 months would be significantly more. You can also write weekly/monthly Calls on some of your SPXU shares to cover the margin/premium cost and maybe even generate income. Just look at the volume average (white dots) increasing as we get closer to the inevitable rate hike the fed must do. Definitely Not Financial Advice. I'm a Meat Popsicle. As always, Hope for the Best. Plan for the Worst.

Beating the rake - Know your trading feesLet’s talk about trading fees. This is an area that most people who trade don’t put enough thought into, but it can make a huge difference to your bottom line. This is especially the case when dealing with percentage based commissions in combination with leverage. Many people, especially those who mainly trade crypto, will be using services that charge percentage based commissions, with fees that can be as high as 0.5% ! But even if you’re trading at one of the more trader-friendly exchanges you’re likely to be paying in the region of 0.1% taker fees for spot trading and 0.04 - 0.06 % taker fees on futures. That sounds pretty cheap, right? 0.06% fee on a trade sounds almost negligible, which is why most casual traders don’t pay too much attention to it. Firstly though, you need to remember that this is the fee for both buying and selling, so for a round trip (buy and sell, assuming taker fee of 0.06% for each) you’re paying 0.12% Suddenly that starts to look a bit more significant, especially for short term intraday traders and scalpers. Let’s take a quick example. Let’s say you’re an intraday trader paying 0.06% taker fees on futures, and your typical Risk/Reward is aiming for a 1% gain and a 0.5% loss for an R of 2. The breakeven rate with an R of 2 is a 33.33% win rate, which is why many traders aim to trade this way. If they can achieve a win rate in the region of 50% they can be highly successful. But then we take your trading fees into account. That 1% average win becomes 0.88 % after your 0.12% round trip of taker fees. And your 0.5% average loss becomes 0.62 % after your round trip to fee-town. So now with an average win of 0.88% and average loss of 0.62% your R is down to 1.42! That means your breakeven win rate has changed from 33.33% to 41.33%! What if you’re aiming to catch even smaller percentage moves? If you were aiming for 0.5% average wins and 0.25% average losses for Risk/Reward of 2, but without considering fees, you might be in for a nasty surprise. Your average win would now be 0.38% and your average loss would be 0.37% after accounting for 0.12% round trip fees on all trades. The 2 R you were aiming for to require a 33.33% win rate actually becomes 1.02 R, requiring a 49.33% win rate to break even! And as a last example, let’s say you take a different approach. Perhaps you’re the type of trader aiming to take equal sized wins and losses but aiming for a 60 - 70% win rate to make your money. At 1% average win and loss (1 R), your wins become 0.88% and your losses become 1.12% after fees. Instead of a 50% break even rate you now require a 56% win rate just to break even! And if you aim for 0.5% average win and loss (1 R) your average wins become 0.38% and your losses become 0.62% after fees, requiring a 62% win rate to break even! Can you overcome those odds? The key takeaway here is that factoring trading fees into your trading plan is absolutely vital to understanding your risk/reward. The smaller the trading fees are as a percentage of your average trade, the less impactful the fees will be on your bottom line. To keep your trading fees small as a percentage of your average wins and losses, the simplest way is obviously to trade for larger average wins and losses, taking a swing trading approach with smaller position sizing. Alternatively, most exchanges/brokers will offer cheaper trading fees for “makers” using limit orders, as opposed to “takers” using market prices. This discount for maker fees will usually slash your fees by 50% - 80%. Many will also offer additional discounts for using a specific token for paying fees (e.g. BNB or KCS) or various discounts for VIP levels/tiers. Do not underestimate the value of these discounts, they can have a very substantial impact on your bottom line, especially if you are a short term intraday trader or scalper. Just a 50% saving on fees could be enough to turn a short term trader from a breakeven trader to a winning one.
