Sideways

About the chart that shows a sideways movement... Hello, traders. If you "follow", you can always get new information quickly. Have a nice day today. ------------------------------------- When you study charts, you will realize how difficult it is to move sideways. Therefore, depending on how long the sideways movement was before the big wave, the size of the wave is also predicted. However, in the charts showing sideways movement, the price range and wave size are often known after the wave appears. This shows that the location of the sideways movement and the size of the sideways wave are important. - Looking at the chart above, we can say that it is showing a sideways movement. However, since the price is located at the lowest price range, it is better to exclude this chart. The reason is that if it is showing a sideways movement at the lowest price range, it is likely that the trading volume has decreased significantly due to being excluded from the market. This is because it is likely to take a long time to turn into an upward trend in this state. - Looking at the chart above, the price is showing a sideways movement while maintaining a certain interval after rising. The sideways movement is about 31%, so it may be ambiguous to say that it is actually sideways. However, if the price moves sideways while maintaining a certain interval after rising, it means that someone is trying to maintain the price. Therefore, when it shows a movement that breaks through the sideways section, it should be considered that there is a possibility that a large wave will occur. The wave can be either upward or downward. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful not to jump into a purchase with the idea that it will definitely rise in the future just because it moves sideways. A box section is set at both ends of the sideways section. Therefore, it is recommended to proceed with a purchase in installments when it shows support after entering this box section. In other words, it is important to check the support in the 1.5-1.9669 section or the 25641-2.6013 section. You can see that the HA-Low indicator and the HA-High indicator are converging. Therefore, if this convergence is broken, it is expected that a trend will be formed. - Like this, you should measure the price position of the sideways movement and the width of the sideways movement well and think in advance about whether to proceed with the transaction when it deviates from that range. Otherwise, if you start trading after the wave has already started, you may end up giving up the transaction because you cannot overcome the wave. Since it is not known when the movement will start once the sideways movement starts, individual investors easily get tired. Therefore, when the coin (token) you want to trade shows a sideways movement, it is recommended to increase the number of coins (tokens) corresponding to the profit while conducting short-term trading (day trading). If you do this, you will naturally be able to see how the sideways waves change, and you will be able to hold out until a big wave starts. I think there are quite a few people who are not familiar with day trading and say they will buy at once when the wave starts. If you can hold out well against the wave, you will get good results, but there is a possibility that the trade will fail 7-8 times out of 10, so if possible, it is good to get used to the feeling by day trading coins (tokens) that show this sideways pattern. - Thank you for reading to the end. I hope you have a successful trade. --------------------------------------------------

GOLD → Descending Channel and Triangle Appear on H4 Gold Technical Analysis EMA 200 Last Thursday, gold broke below the 200 EMA, signaling a potential trend reversal to bearish, followed by a rejection at 3,128.00 — an H4 order block area. However, on Tuesday, price action pushed back above the 200 EMA and held, indicating a return to bullish momentum. Chart Pattern Price movement is currently constrained by several trendlines, forming a descending channel and triangle pattern, creating a sideways market structure. Order Block Mapping A new H4 order block has formed, representing a key area to look for potential buy entries. If this zone is broken, it may offer a strong opportunity for a sell entry. 🟢 Bullish Scenario If gold reaches the 3,318.00 level — an H4 order block area — it may present a potential buying opportunity. A breakout above the upper trendline would confirm bullish continuation, with the first target at 3,366.00 (TP1), followed by a second target at 3,440.00 (TP2), which is also an H4 order block area. 🔴 Bearish Scenario If gold breaks below the H4 order block at 3,290.00 and breaches the lower trendline, it may offer a selling opportunity, with the next downside target at 3,055.00 — a key daily order block level.

2025 S&P500 Forecast Guess by Tim WestI included 2024's guess that I posted here in January last year which turned out to be quite accurate in terms of "action" and "direction". The volatility the market saw with wild swings back and forth was outlined on here as we reached the clusters of guesses from Wall Street estimates. This is an old technique that I learned from Ken Fisher of Fisher Investments and from Forbes Magazine. His wise and witty insights were the foundation of my investment strategy when I started investing in the mid 1980's. Basically, when you see what the "market expectations" are for a market like the FOREXCOM:SPX500 or S&P500 Index, you can then figure out what needs to happen to get the market to their estimates and realize the market will go to somewhere else other than their guesses. With 2024 showing a majority of "less than historical average" forecasts and more downside forecasts, it was quite clear that the market could easily outpace or outperform those forecasts. Now that 2025 shows that analysts are looking for an average year or more, I think it is safe to say that we won't get an average year. We now have a rising US dollar, which hurts overseas earnings. We also have higher energy prices which also hurts earnings. And yet we have plenty of cash on the sidelines as everyone who missed the rally is hoping to buy on a decline and others are just happy to earn 5% on their cash balances thanks to an ultra-tight Fed (compared to the last 20 years). So, I expect more of the same that we have seen in January and I also expect sharp declines if we get any moves above the highs and up towards 6500 on the SPX.
