Selling pressure, gold price falls below 3300⭐️GOLDEN INFORMATION: Gold prices continued to retreat during Wednesday’s North American session, slipping below the $3,300 mark after reaching an intraday high of $3,325 earlier. The pullback, amounting to a 0.27% decline, came as traders absorbed the implications of the latest Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting minutes. During the May 6–7 policy meeting, the Fed opted to leave interest rates unchanged, highlighting growing uncertainty surrounding the economic impact of proposed tariffs. Officials maintained a cautious stance, citing heightened risks of both inflation and unemployment—potential consequences of trade disruptions. The minutes also reflected concerns over stagflation, with policymakers noting that “the Committee may face challenging trade-offs if inflation proves more persistent while growth and employment expectations deteriorate.” ⭐️Personal comments NOVA: The downtrend line remains intact, gold prices are trading around below 3300. The tariff backdrop remains largely unchanged. ⭐️SET UP GOLD PRICE: 🔥SELL GOLD zone : 3311- 3313 SL 3318 TP1: $3300 TP2: $3290 TP3: $3280 🔥BUY GOLD zone: $3205- $3207 SL $3200 TP1: $3218 TP2: $3230 TP3: $3248 ⭐️Technical analysis: Based on technical indicators EMA 34, EMA89 and support resistance areas to set up a reasonable SELL order. ⭐️NOTE: Note: Nova wishes traders to manage their capital well - take the number of lots that match your capital - Takeprofit equal to 4-6% of capital account - Stoplose equal to 2-3% of capital account

EURAUD - Technical analysisHello dear traders! Welcome to this trading idea... First, we have a few trading options here. 1. We can open short right now, with a small target profit at the previous resistance level... 2. Wait until the price tests our resistance level and sell or buy only after that. 3. Shorting position after the price comes down, an uprising diagonal (green) line, and will break down our marked red line price marking level. In this situation, what we are waiting for is a selling opportunity. SELL But... If the pair becomes bullish, we may go long later.

BTC Trap & Reverse: The Power of SFPs in ActionBTC continues to chop in a tight range near its previous all-time high. While price action may appear messy at first glance, traders using a combination of structure, Fibonacci levels, and order flow tools are spotting clean opportunities — especially through Swing Failure Patterns (SFPs). 🔍 What Just Happened? Bitcoin recently rejected from the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level — a classic reaction zone. What made this move powerful was the SFP that formed at that level. Price swept above a prior high, triggering breakout buys, only to reverse. This type of move traps late longs and offers an ideal short entry. 🧠 Educational Insight: Why SFPs Are One of the Best Setups SFPs (Swing Failure Patterns) are some of the highest-probability trades you can take for a few key reasons: 1️⃣ Liquidity-driven: They form where stop losses cluster — above highs or below lows — creating a magnet for price. 2️⃣ Clean invalidation: The wick high/low gives a natural stop-loss level, keeping risk tight. 3️⃣ Fast reaction: Once trapped traders are forced to exit, price often reverses sharply — giving you strong follow-through. 4️⃣ Confirmable with order flow: Using tools like Exocharts, you can see aggressive longs/shorts piling in just before the reversal. This adds conviction to the setup. 📏 Current Confluence: Rejection from the 0.786 Fib retracement SFP confirmed on high volume 1:1 trend-based Fib extension sits at ~$105,410 That level also lines up with the 0.666 Fib retracement Anchored VWAP around $105K Liquidity pool right at that zone too — a likely magnet 🎯 Trade Idea: Short triggered at the SFP wick, stop just above it. First target: the 1:1 extension near $105.4K. Risk-reward is excellent with high probability if price continues to unwind late longs. ✅ Key Takeaway: In ranges like this, you don’t need to guess direction — you need to react to structure. SFPs give you that edge. When paired with real-time tools like Exocharts and anchored VWAPs, these trades become sniper entries rather than coin flips. Let the market show its hand — and trade the reaction, not the prediction. 📌 Summary: This is how you avoid overtrading in chop: wait for key levels, watch how price reacts, and let trapped traders create the move. If BTC revisits the $105K region, it’s a major area to watch for reaction — or to take partials if you’re in a short. The best trades come from patience + precision. _________________________________ If you found this helpful, leave a like and comment below! Got requests for the next technical analysis? Let me know.

Selling pressure, gold price continues to fall below 3285?⭐️GOLDEN INFORMATION: Gold prices declined by nearly 2% on Monday, slipping below the $3,300 mark, as investor sentiment improved following U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to postpone tariffs on European Union imports. The renewed risk appetite, coupled with a modest rebound in the U.S. Dollar from last week’s losses, placed pressure on the non-yielding precious metal. The move came after a weekend call between President Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, which resulted in the U.S. deferring the planned 50% tariffs on EU goods until July 9. The development eased global trade concerns, prompting a shift away from safe-haven assets—excluding the Greenback—and helped propel global equity markets higher. ⭐️Personal comments NOVA: Accumulated price zone around 3300, under selling pressure, mainly waiting for important economic news this week: GDP, FOMC ⭐️SET UP GOLD PRICE: 🔥SELL GOLD zone : 3363- 3365 SL 3370 TP1: $3352 TP2: $3340 TP3: $3325 🔥BUY GOLD zone: $3266- $3268 SL $3261 TP1: $3277 TP2: $3286 TP3: $3300 ⭐️Technical analysis: Based on technical indicators EMA 34, EMA89 and support resistance areas to set up a reasonable SELL order. ⭐️NOTE: Note: Nova wishes traders to manage their capital well - take the number of lots that match your capital - Takeprofit equal to 4-6% of capital account - Stoplose equal to 2-3% of capital account

$OKTA Gen AI tailwinds are not materializing as of now!- I'm a seller of NASDAQ:OKTA at $124 . Company was undervalued at 70s but has run so much without tangible materializing Gen AI tailwinds. - Theoretically, Agentic AI should have been a great tailwind for SSO but it appears that industry is not yet focussed on security aspect of it when it comes to agentic AI. - Even on application level, companies are struggling with developing orchestration framework and deploying them at Scale. - Risk/Reward is not suitable for me to stay long. Short or Avoid/sell $OKTA. - I might change my mind if they prove themselves today May 27, 2025.

$COST earnings short, possible uptrend selloff(Sorry for mobile charts/posts) NASDAQ:COST Hello, looking at multiple time frames on Costco I am going to take a stab at a short. This name isn’t unfamiliar with big moves so an 8% to 10% move could take place here on earnings forecast. Granted, they could not divulge any details but I think that wouldn’t be good and amidst the tariff rhetoric which has been the narrative for retail names could add headwind. 6/6 $900p is what I will take a stab at. 1 contract will suffice as there could be a good R/R especially if you hedge. If you look at the Monthly chart this thing is bought up heavily. I am going to try and get a good entry so I’m not risking what I may feel is too much on an earnings “lotto.” $100-$150 on a contract will be good in my book. WSL

GBP/USD manipulation going on right now ??gbpusd had a good rise the last few weeks/months, now its time to pay attention. the price is now ranging,. let me tell you what i think. a little bit higher there is a imbalance in the chart. for me and many others thats a reason to short. why do i think manipulation is going on? for the big people in order to go short they need to attract buyers, so how do they do that? they go long, they build up long orders to attract more buyers so the price doesnt go down and the shorts can get filled. thats what happening right now in my opinion. (i can be wrong) also the rsi is overbought (indicating downside could come ) in my opinion the price will be ranging for a week of 2, after that is wil go a bit higher to eventually come down big time , (like 5% or more) here is the setup i will take. no financial advice, just my thoughts

BTC - Another Potential Bearish PatternHere I present my second alternative for a Bearish case for Bitcoin. Per my previous posts I explain in detail the interest in recollecting liquidity in these lower zones. Previously I presented pathways to the uber lows at 7,000-10,000 - however this is another possible case. I believe Bitcoin can see a drop from 109,200 straight down to 19,000-20,000 Why? 1. Major Volume support at this level 2. Major liquidity pools in confluence with this level 3. Price would form a W bottom with a higher low - which aligns with DXY breaking down on the monthly time frame. We can use DXY to project a bull market spanning 2-5 years (weakening dollar = more interest in deflationary assets such as Bitcoin) 4. Per the note above, it’s unlikely that BTC continues straight up without a sharp drop. The way this market works is to a large degree with leverage trading. The market and exchanges desperately want to shake out these longs, especially if we consider a 2-5 year bullish forecast through a macro view. 5. Confluence with this diagonal trendline which shows a clear support / resistance structure (note the Bitcoin chart is formed via diagonal ascending support and resistance lines - we can demonstrate this clearly and repeatable by duplicating the correct trendline and seeing how it forms the chart at any location) Personally, I am shorting Bitcoin from 109,000 - and am expecting to see a fast drop through the rest of the weekend. I will watch what the price does, where it reacts and interacts, and attempt to get a head start on understanding the true bottom before this “true” bull cycle begins. Happy trading

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!

BTC - Bullish Madness or Bearish Retest?Zooming out on BTC chart we can note this major bearish trendline on the HTF. This diagonal support / resistance line can take BTC to 7,000. Likely? Maybe not. Possible? Absolutely. A straight move up on BTC like we have seen the last two years is very dangerous. There is a large chain reaction of leveraged sell orders via long position stop losses cascading down the price levels. Can this trigger a massive and fast flash crash? In my view - absolutely. Here are two potential moves that take price to those low liquidations levels. Possibility 1 110,000 to 35,000 35,000 retrace to 81,000 81,000 to 7,000 Possibility 2 110,000 to 43,000 43,000 retrace to 72,000 72,000 to 7,000 Note that both of these possibilities end with 7,000. I’m mapping out two routes that take us there, using confluences with trendlines, volume profiles, liquidity mapping, and common sense. Always remember that crypto is a very new market, with some unique mechanics that differentiate it from other more established markets. Predominantly the futures and high leverage usage and the ways these platforms make their money… Beware and be prepared.

$MSTR quick phone idea for 5/23; Short 0DTEThis name seems to have lost steam. I’m all for Saylor and what he believes in but currently this feels set up for a nasty short. Strategy has had numerous monster days to the downside and upside. This thing had a $150 intraday swing off its $550 high. Tomorrow, 5/23, I am going to enter a possible 5-7% short that expires 5/23. Just a quick idea here as I can’t post charts from phone into minds section. Check you guys tomorrow and I’ll be sure to update this. $375, $380, $385.

ETH — Bull Flag or Trap? Trade Plan with TargetsETH is setting the stage for its next major move — and the chart is packed with clues. After completing Wave 3 at $2738.50, ETH has entered a corrective phase, forming what looks like a bullish flag. But beneath the surface, smart money levels are aligning: VWAP, Fibs, key levels, and liquidity traps are all converging around one high-probability zone. This analysis breaks down both the long and short setups, backed by real confluence and clean R:R opportunities. Whether you’re planning to snipe the reversal near support or fade the rally at resistance, you’ll walk away with a clear trade plan and deeper insight into how price reacts at precision levels. Let’s get into it. 🟢 Bullish Scenario: Long Setup with Deep Confluence After a fakeout pump into the golden pocket of this minor downtrend (typical for a Sunday), ETH rejected cleanly at the upper resistance of the bull flag channel. We're now watching for the swing low at $2406.63 to be swept, setting up a potential SFP (Swing Failure Pattern) at a highly confluent support zone: 🔍 Confluence at the $2390–$2360 Zone: Anchored VWAP from the Wave 3 origin at $1752 is sitting at $2390 Trend-Based Fib Extension 1:1 of the correction lands at $2386.84 Liquidity pool just under the recent swing low 0.382 Fib retracement of the entire Wave 3 at $2361.66 0.618 Fib Speed Resistance Fan intersects this zone Lower bull flag support line also aligns This makes the $2390–$2362 zone a high-probability bounce area. 📌 Plan: Laddered long entries between $2390–$2362, watching closely for a clean SFP or reversal signal. Target 1: $3000 psychological level Target 2: 0.618 Fib retracement at $3067.71 (potential Wave 5 top) Stop-loss: Below previous yearly open (can be tightened after confirmation) R:R: 1:5 or better after SL adjustment 🔴 Bearish Scenario: Short Setup at Key Rejection Zone If ETH makes a move up to complete the 5th wave, we monitor $3067.71 — the 0.618 retracement of the entire corrective leg — as a key resistance. If price rejects here with momentum loss or bearish structure: 📌 Plan: Short on confirmed rejection of $3067.71 Stop-loss: Above $3211 (above 0.666 Fib) Target: Previous high near $2700 or lower R:R: 1:2 or better depending on entry and structure 🧠 Educational Insight: Why Confluence Increases Probability Many traders chase setups based on single indicators. Real edge comes from stacking independent tools: VWAPs, Fibs, FVGs etc... When they align, the setup isn’t random — it’s high conviction. This strategy gives you a framework to anticipate where price is likely to move and why, rather than reacting emotionally. Patience and preparation will always outperform panic and reaction. Trade the plan — not the impulse. ___________________________________ If you found this helpful, leave a like and comment below! Got requests for the next technical analysis? Let me know.

HBAR Masterclass: Fib Precision + ConfluenceHBAR has been a dream to chart lately — beautifully technical, clean reactions, and a strong respect for structure. When a chart follows fibs this precisely, charting becomes fun — like solving a puzzle that pays. You stop forcing trades and start enjoying the process. Let’s break down where the next high-probability trade setup lies — and why. Elliott Wave Context HBAR recently completed a 5-wave impulse structure and is now unfolding a ABC correction: ✅ Wave A: Broke below Wave 4's low ✅ Wave B: Rejected cleanly at the 0.618 retracement of Wave A 🔄 Wave C: Currently unfolding, with price structure hinting at a Head & Shoulders forming to the downside Interestingly, HBAR has been bouncing between golden ratios like a Fibonacci pinball machine. — reinforcing how well this asset respects technical structure. 🟢 Long Opportunity: The Golden Pocket Zone By pulling Fibonacci retracement from the entire 5-wave leg (from $0.16941 to $0.22885), we uncover the golden pocket: 0.618 Fib → $0.19212 0.666 Fib → $0.18926 But what really strengthens this zone is the confluence: 📍 21-Day EMA → $0.19361 📍 21-Day SMA → $0.19229 📍 Anchored VWAP from the $0.15396 low → ~$0.19135 📍 4/1 Gann Fan support (if reached between May 15–17) Together, they form a tight support band between: 🎯 $0.195 – $0.18926 📐 How We Projected the 1.618 Target Here’s where the magic of planning comes in. If Wave C finishes within this golden pocket, we can anticipate the next move by applying a trend-based Fibonacci extension. This gives us a realistic projection for the next impulsive move: 📈 1.618 extension lands at → $0.28654 This level also aligns with the yearly level and previous key high — forming an ideal final target 📘 Educational Insight: Why Golden Pockets Matter In trading, the “golden pocket” — the 0.618-0.666 Fibonacci retracement zone — is often where high-probability reversals take place. It’s a zone where buyers (or sellers) return with conviction after a correction. When this area also aligns with EMAs, anchored VWAPs, Gann levels etc. and previous structure, it becomes more than just a level — it becomes a decision zone. This is where confluence transforms a trade idea into a trade setup. 🟢 Long Trade Setup: Entry: Laddered between $0.195 – $0.18926 Stop-Loss: Below $0.185 Take-Profit: $0.28654 R:R: ~10:1 Potential Gain: ~+50% 🔴 Short Setup (If Rejected at Extension): If price hits $0.28654 and shows exhaustion or bearish reversal patterns (SFP, engulfing candle, volume spike), a short could be considered: Entry: ~$0.286 Stop-Loss: $0.2967 (better above $0.3) Target: $0.2622 R:R: ~2:1 HBAR is giving us a textbook case of structure, rhythm, and precision. Whether it’s the golden pocket, the 1.618 extension, or the alignment of multiple tools — this is how clean setups are built. Set your alerts. Trust the plan. Let the chart come to you.

NEAR’s Pullback Zone Found — Is $4 Next?NEAR just pulled off a +50% rally from the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement at $2.224 — a strong show of force from the bulls. After that explosive move, price is now cooling off in a consolidation phase, preparing for the next leg higher. 🟢 Long Setup — Dip Before Lift? The next high-probability long zone lies between: $3.026 – $2.94 Possible but less likely of a deeper dip to $2.78 (0.5 Fib of the recent move) Long entries can be laddered between $3.00 and $2.90 (even $2.80 if volatility kicks in). Stop-Loss: Below the daily 21 EMA ($2.7344) and 21 SMA ($2.6739) Target: $4.00 R:R: ~4:1 — clean and structured This setup aligns with standard continuation behaviour after strong impulses — consolidation, retrace, and resume. 🔴 Short Setup (on Rejection at $4.00) Entry: ~$4.00 Stop-Loss: Above $4.25 Target: Yearly open (~$3.65) R:R: ~1.5:1 — not ideal, but valid on confirmation 🎯 Summary NEAR is consolidating after a strong move — either ready to continue higher or retest deeper into Fib support Long zone: $3.00–$2.90 (poss. $2.80) Short zone: $4.00 (on rejection only) Simple structure, clean risk, and nothing forced — exactly how it should be. Sometimes, less is more. Let price show the next move. Stay ready. 📈 ___________________________________ If you found this helpful, leave a like and comment below!

ADA Correction Nearing Completion — Trade It Like a ProADA is respecting structure beautifully and currently consolidating after completing a 5-wave impulse move. The key question now is: where are the next high-probability trade setups? Let’s break it down step by step. Market Structure & Elliott Context ADA has completed a full 5-wave bullish sequence, and—as expected—is now in a correction phase. This appears to be forming a classic ABC correction. Using the Fibonacci retracement tool: 0.5 retracement of the entire move sits at → $0.7534 This aligns perfectly with the previous swing high at $0.746 — a level that has yet to be retested The 1:1 trend-based Fib extension of a potential ABC correction puts Wave C at → $0.7492 Confluence Check: This entire support zone (~$0.75) is stacked with technical alignment: ✅ Previous swing high: $0.746 ✅ 0.5 Fib retracement: $0.7534 ✅ 1:1 extension: $0.7492 ✅ Daily 21 EMA: $0.7455 ✅ Daily 21 SMA: $0.7347 ✅ Point of Control (POC): ~$0.7318 ✅ Anchored VWAP: Also sitting in this zone ✅ Pitchfork golden pocket: Aligns as dynamic support All of these support indicators point to one thing: this ~$0.75 zone is a high-probability long entry area. 🟢 Long Setup Entry zone: Ladder between $0.77 – $0.75 Average entry: ~$0.76 Stop-loss: Below $0.7318 (under POC) Target: $0.9212 (0.618 retracement of the recent down wave) R:R: ~5:1 Potential upside: +22% 🔴 Short Setup (on Rejection Only) Entry: $0.9212 (0.618 Fib retracement of downtrend) Stop-loss: Above 0.666 Fib → ~$0.958 Target: previous swing high or yearly open R:R: ~1.4:1 (it can be adjusted tighter upon confirmation) This short setup isn’t ideal in terms of R:R unless we see clear rejection. But with confirmation — like an SFP, bearish engulfing, or divergence — the stop can be tightened, making the risk-to-reward much more favourable. 📘 Educational Insight: Why Structure Beats Emotion In trading, the strongest setups occur where multiple tools converge—Fib levels, EMAs, VWAP, volume zones, and past price action. When these align, it’s not about guessing—it’s about preparing. The key is to wait for structure to come to you, not the other way around. Patience allows clarity. Clarity allows precision. And precision pays. 💡 Final Thoughts The plan is clear. Levels are set. Now it’s just observation and discipline. Good trades don’t chase attention — they present themselves to those who wait. ___________________________________ If you found this helpful, leave a like and comment below!
